Chapter 390: Chapter 390: Assassination in the Office

After completing the task assigned by Lin Tong, it had become completely dark outside. The night sky enveloped the Eastern Group’s building, leaving only a few people still working overtime.

Seeing that Lin Tong had not arrived yet, Ye Xuan simply sat in his office chair, lit a cigarette, and gazed through the floor-to-ceiling window at the newly lit, bustling night scene of East Sea City, feeling as if he were in another world.

It had been nearly two months since he left the Purgatory Team. He wondered how everyone was doing.

Was the bizarre monk changing girlfriends? Did that kid Kong develop his ultimate killing technique? And that combat maniac, how many of the world’s top fighters had he challenged? And... Eagle, where on earth are you? Do you know everyone is worried about you?

While smoking, Ye Xuan furrowed his brows in thought, suddenly feeling a bit sentimental.

Having been in this prosperous metropolis for too long, Ye Xuan felt as if every cell in his body was rioting and revolting! While these leisurely vacation days were comfortable, they lacked a sense of blood and passion.

This bustling city, seemingly beautiful, was actually a cage, binding its inhabitants with its rules; life’s comfort, ordinariness, happiness!

Yet, Ye Xuan, a bloodthirsty wolf from the wilds, felt stifled and tasteless after being caged for too long, unable to freely unleash his skills.

"It seems I’m truly destined to a life of toil, not suited for enjoying this peace..."

Ye Xuan chuckled bitterly, feeling somewhat masochistic.

In the past, while bustling abroad, he rarely had a moment to rest! But now, having rested for too long, he felt bored and listless.

Humans are indeed contradictory creatures!

Hmm?

While Ye Xuan was lost in his thoughts, he suddenly heard a faint sound of footsteps.

The sound was very low, almost nonexistent, like a cat walking. If his senses weren’t far above average, he wouldn’t have noticed it.

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a cold glint flickering within them. The next moment, without hesitation, he spun his CEO chair around 180 degrees to face away from the door.

A soft "hisss" sound.

A similarly faint noise of the door opening, almost silent, and the CEO’s office door was ajar.

Under the dim light of the office, a figure stealthily slipped in, blending into the dim and murky space, emitting an eerie and inscrutable aura.

The door closed again, still without a sound, and everything proceeded in absolute silence, but the atmosphere grew increasingly mysterious.

A tall shadow, like a ghost, drifted toward Ye Xuan, who was facing away from the door, its icy cold eyes fixed intently on the back of the CEO’s seat.

In that moment, the office seemed no different than if there had still been only one person!

The shadow moved like a lynx, silently gliding forward without making a sound.

In the blink of an eye, in the mere three seconds since the shadow had entered, it had already covered a distance of seven or eight meters, nearing the CEO’s chair.

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan leaned back in his chair, rhythmically tapping his fingers on the armrests.

His eyes were deep and unfathomable, like the night sky, filled with vastness and mystery, and the iciness within grew even denser!

Swish!

Just then, a sudden flash of bright light appeared in the shadow’s hand, revealing a stunningly beautiful face—it was a woman.

The sudden bright blade flashed past Ye Xuan’s eyes, clearly a glint of a knife!

Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm, but a flash of murderous intent swept through his eyes.

Swoosh!

Just as the bright blade was about to strike, the CEO’s seat spun around abruptly, revealing Ye Xuan’s innocuous smile.

"Hello! Beautiful, whom are you looking for?"

Ye Xuan’s mouth slightly curled up as he greeted with a smile.

"Ah!"

The shadow clearly got startled and gasped in shock.

Obviously, she hadn’t expected a seat to suddenly come her way, and what’s more, that a man was sitting in it!

However, she quickly came to her senses, swiftly retracting her knife’s edge, and politely inquired with a tap on herself, "May I ask if CEO Lin is here?"

Ye Xuan sneered inwardly, this female assassin’s reaction was really quick; clearly, she had undergone professional training—she was a professional killer.

He carefully sized her up, discovering that this woman was quite beautiful.

Her burgundy hair slightly curled, draping over her shoulders, her face was exquisitely delicate, features well-defined, skin fair, and she was dressed in a business suit that conveyed the competence of a career woman!

Even from Ye Xuan’s angle, he could clearly see the unfathomable cleavage.

"CEO Lin isn’t here, what do you need her for? I can pass on the message!"

Staring intently at the woman, Ye Xuan’s mouth twisted into a wicked smile.

The woman frowned at Ye Xuan, her face expressing apologies, "I’m sorry, if CEO Lin isn’t in, then I’ll leave now."

Ye Xuan smirked playfully, "No, beautiful, don’t leave! It’s already dark, we could chat about life’s ideals!"

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the woman’s expression changed drastically, a hint of anger flashed across her pretty face, and she said coldly, "You pervert! How dare you flirt with me? Believe it or not, I will tell CEO Lin later to have you fired!"

The woman’s reaction at the moment was perfect, the anger on her face seemed very real, completely masking her assassin temperament!

If not for the killing intent that had betrayed her earlier, even Ye Xuan might have been fooled by her.

"Talk to CEO Lin when you find her."

Ye Xuan shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and leaned back in his seat, his gaze observingly sweeping over her.

"Ugh, you pervert! Don’t let me see you again!"

The woman huffed and turned, leaving the CEO’s office.

Watching the woman’s retreating figure, the lazy expression on Ye Xuan’s face vanished, replaced by a chilling coldness!

Those eyes, black as the night, were profoundly inscrutable, exuding an air of elusive enigma.

"Trying to assassinate my wife, and you think you can run?"

A gleam flashed through Ye Xuan’s eyes as he stood up and gave chase!

...

Tap tap tap tap!

The woman, in her high heels, hastily left the CEO’s office, her actions somewhat hurried.

After turning a few corners, she arrived at the CEO’s private elevator.

Hitting the button, the elevator doors opened, and after quickly looking around, she darted inside!

Ding!

In the split second before the elevator doors closed, another figure swiftly dashed in.

"Why is it you?"

Seeing Ye Xuan entering the elevator, the woman’s pretty face changed, and she cried out in alarm.
