Chapter 722 - 722 722 Unspeakable Secrets

722: Chapter 722: Unspeakable Secrets 722: Chapter 722: Unspeakable Secrets Bai Xiaofan looked at Hathaway with appreciation.

He hadn’t expected this woman to be quite so astute.

It seemed that cooperating with her could actually be quite satisfactory.

“Humph!”

Xiao Mei turned her head and snorted coldly, sitting down on a sofa to one side without so much as glancing at Bai Xiaofan.

Asshole!

This guy was really too much of an asshole!

He had so little regard for her face!

And all of a sudden, Xiao Mei realized a problem.

If it hadn’t been for Hathaway rushing out first just now, would Bai Xiaofan really have killed her?

Would he have?

Would he not?

For a moment, Xiao Mei actually started to feel a bit insecure.

Bai Xiaofan also took a seat and gestured for Hathaway and Tang Zhipeng to sit as well.

“You better make things clear, if there’s anything you dare hide from me, I want to kill you, and no one can stop me!”

As Bai Xiaofan spoke, he reached out to grab a pack of cigarettes from the side.

Unexpectedly, a small hand had already reached out before him and grabbed the pack of cigarettes.

Looking up, he found that the hand holding the cigarettes belonged to Xiao Mei.

Thinking Xiao Mei realized her mistake and was offering him a cigarette, Bai Xiaofan was about to smile smugly.

But then he saw Xiao Mei flick her wrist and throw the pack of cigarettes to the other side.

“Childish!”

The expression on Bai Xiaofan’s face instantly froze as he muttered under his breath.

Humph!

Ignoring Bai Xiaofan’s words, Xiao Mei snorted haughtily, appearing quite pleased to see Bai Xiaofan unhappy.

“What are you looking at?

Speak quickly if you want to live!”

Seeing Tang Zhipeng looking on in confusion, Bai Xiaofan snapped coldly.

Tang Zhipeng was so frightened that his body shuddered.

Bai Xiaofan listened to Tang Zhipeng’s words while he stood up and walked towards where the pack of cigarettes had fallen.

He then picked up the cigarettes, lit one, and continued to sit in his original spot.

All of this was silently observed by Hathaway, who couldn’t help but lower her head and chuckle.

From what she had seen and guessed, she thought the two were just throwing childish tantrums.

Bai Xiaofan’s refusal to let Xiao Mei assist might have stemmed from a sort of jealousy in his heart, not wanting Tang Zhipeng to touch Xiao Mei’s small hand.

Xiao Mei, on the other hand, didn’t perceive this as jealousy and thought the other was deliberately picking a fight, which made her very unhappy.

And so, the two of them were at an impasse.

As for whether Bai Xiaofan would really kill Tang Zhipeng if Xiao Mei actually did assist him, that was absolutely impossible.

Even in Hathaway’s view, let alone killing Xiao Mei, Bai Xiaofan probably wouldn’t even lay a hand on her—it simply wouldn’t happen!

When Bai Xiaofan’s cigarette was finished, so was Tang Zhipeng’s explanation.

Actually, Tang Zhipeng’s story was very simple, to sum up, it was that he was currently living off the money earned from doing tasks.

He had received a task to assassinate Hathaway, and not only was he provided Hathaway’s address, but he could also get real-time updates on her whereabouts 24 hours a day.

According to the original plan, he shouldn’t have been able to arrive here until three hours later.

Unexpectedly, the other party sent a plane to pick him up directly.

They also told him that, inside this house, in addition to Hathaway, the target of the mission, there was also a man and a woman from Huaxia, so he should be cautious.

Tang Zhipeng had also surveyed the surroundings in advance and hadn’t noticed anything unusual, which is why he slipped in secretly.

It just so happened that Hathaway was the only one in the hall, so he acted decisively!

As Tang Zhipeng spoke, Bai Xiaofan showed no expression, as if he hadn’t heard a word.

Hathaway appeared to be deep in thought, pondering who could be betraying her.

Hathaway had been mixed up in international affairs for so long and had become a team leader within the Shadow Organization; her intelligence certainly wasn’t low.

As the team leader for intelligence within the Shadow Organization, she was very confident that no one was trailing her.

And yet, since no one was tracking her, but someone could inform Tang Zhipeng of her whereabouts in real-time 24 hours a day, the problem became quite serious.

It meant that amongst those who had been through life and death with her, someone had betrayed her!

Among these subordinates, only a few knew her that well.

Or rather, very few, no more than a handful!

“After a while, you should come back to the sect with me.

Both the second elder and the third elder have died, and the eldest elder has also left the sect.

Currently, I am in charge of managing the sect’s daily affairs!”

As Hathaway was speculating which of her subordinates might have betrayed her, Xiao Mei spoke to Tang Zhipeng.

“Senior sister, I will not return to the sect with you, and I advise you not to go back either!”

After hearing Xiao Mei’s words, Tang Zhipeng hesitated for a moment and then spoke in a low voice.

“What do you mean by that?

Didn’t you escape from the sect originally because the second and third elders wanted to send you back to the Tang family?

Now that they are dead and the Sect Leader is in seclusion all year round, almost all of the sect’s affairs are under my management.

I can ensure your safety!”

Xiao Mei looked at Tang Zhipeng, puzzled, not understanding why he would say such a thing.

Tang Zhipeng had already defected from the sect three years ago, otherwise, his cultivation level wouldn’t have remained at the early stage of Golden Core.

After all, Tang Zhipeng’s cultivation level had not been much weaker than hers back in the day.

Of course, when Tang Zhipeng defected from the sect, he hadn’t committed any atrocious deeds.

It was because the second and third elders of the Myriad Poison Sect wanted to send Tang Zhipeng back to the Tang family to obtain certain collaborations with them.

He had to flee the sect to save his own life, never to return.

What Xiao Mei and the others hadn’t expected was that after leaving the sect, Tang Zhipeng actually went abroad.

And from the looks of it, he seemed to be doing rather well for himself.

At least he had survived the past three years!

So, upon seeing Tang Zhipeng, Xiao Mei very much wanted him to return with her.

If nothing unexpected happened, she would definitely become the Sect Leader of the Myriad Poison Sect in the future.

The development of the Myriad Poison Sect would definitely need a group of young people then.

And now, many promising young disciples of the Myriad Poison Sect had already followed the eldest elder.

However, what Xiao Mei didn’t expect was that after hearing her words, Tang Zhipeng just shook his head with a bitter smile and didn’t say much more.

It was as if he had some unspeakable secret.

“You…”

Xiao Mei wanted to continue persuading Tang Zhipeng but was stopped by Bai Xiaofan.

“Enough already, don’t go on and on like a nagging old lady!”

Bai Xiaofan rudely interrupted Xiao Mei and then, before Xiao Mei could explode, he called Tang Zhipeng out of the room.

They went into the yard, apparently to talk about something!
