"Miss, due to recent special circumstances, I need to change the course I’m teaching you."
"Huh? What are you going to teach me then, Teacher? I haven’t finished learning about counter-surveillance yet."
"We’ll cover that later. From now on, I’ll teach you how to detect potential danger by observing subtle movements. It’s a form of observation."
"Oh! I want to learn that!"
Li Mucheng, who had initially shown little interest, perked up upon hearing Ye Feng’s mention of the new course. Although she had learned about counter-surveillance, she had no concept of observation. If her targets went into hiding in the future, finding them would be difficult.
"However, Miss, I can only teach you the theoretical part. It’s not safe everywhere right now, so we’ll conduct the lessons indoors, just in case."
"Alright~"
Li Mucheng suppressed her excitement and subtly pushed her water cup on the table toward Ye Feng.
"Wait a moment, Miss. Let me have some water to moisten my throat."
Ye Feng cleared his throat and reached for the cup of water, about to take a sip. Li Mucheng panicked and snatched it away right in front of him.
"Miss?"
Ye Feng looked at Li Mucheng in surprise, clearly puzzled by her actions.
"This... this water looks a bit cloudy. The water filter probably hasn’t been replaced in time. Teacher, you should drink the other cup. This one looks much clearer."
Li Mucheng forced herself to remain calm as she took the cup from Ye Feng’s hand and handed him another one from the table. She then added,
"I... I’ll go pour this water out. Really, Ah Fu should’ve had someone check the equipment earlier. I’ll have Father dock his salary later."
With that, Li Mucheng slipped on her slippers and hurried out of the room, her expression betraying her nervousness.
"Is she really that particular? Water is water. It’s fine to drink as it is."
Ye Feng shook his head, downed the water in one gulp, and turned his attention elsewhere.
A moment later, Li Mucheng returned with a freshly washed cup. After taking a sip in front of Ye Feng, she sat back down.
"Alright, Teacher, let’s start the lesson~"
"Okay..."
......
"Pah!"
In an abandoned warehouse somewhere, a burly man spat out a thick glob of phlegm, then took a deep drag from his cigar, exhaling a cloud of smoke with a look of satisfaction.
"Boss, this isn’t working. We’re a professional team, after all. Kidnapping a little girl should be a piece of cake."
At that moment, a lanky man with a sloppy demeanor stood behind the burly man, idly carving into his arm with a small knife. His arm was already covered in fresh, bleeding wounds.
"Jobs like this usually take us less than a day. Why are we still stuck in this godforsaken place?"
"Bihu, calm down. The boss has his reasons for holding back. Besides, didn’t Mei’er already analyze the situation? Did you even bother to look at it?"
In the shadows, an elderly man with white hair was polishing his gun with a white cloth. Beside him lay an assortment of weapons and explosives.
Bihu, however, only grew more defiant upon hearing the old man’s words. He raised his voice and shouted, "What’s there to analyze? It’s just some rich, powerful tycoon. This isn’t as hard as that time we assassinated a mob boss in Europe. I say we just storm in and get it over with. Quick and easy."
"Silence."
After Bihu finished speaking, the burly man tossed his cigar to the ground and glared at him sternly.
"Tch, boring."
Bihu shuddered but still put on a fearless act as he returned to his spot, though he continued to carve into his arm.
"Hehe... this is still the most fun..."
The burly man turned his gaze to a woman standing by the window. After taking a deep breath, he said, "Mei’er, tell us what you’ve analyzed so far."
Upon hearing his words, the woman named Mei’er, who had been staring out the window, turned around and spoke in a calm tone, "This Li Jing is no ordinary man. His brother, Su Wanli, is also a prominent figure in Shu City. One operates in the light, the other in the shadows. That’s why we’ve had to lay low. If we kidnap the Li family’s daughter, we’ll be up against both their forces. The level of danger is no joke."
"But their personnel aren’t particularly skilled. There’s hardly anyone worth mentioning, except for the fact that the Li family’s daughter recently got a new tutor. Other than that, there’s no significant news."
"A tutor? Is he a threat?"
"Just a pretty boy, probably the young lady’s plaything. He’s no threat to us."
Mei’er finished speaking and turned around. Her appearance was strikingly beautiful, fitting for someone called "Mei’er."
"But their intelligence network is extensive. By the time we arrived here, they already knew about us. Both Li Corporation and the Li family estate are heavily guarded. If we make even the slightest move, reinforcements will arrive within half an hour."
"Is there a better way, then?"
"Yes, as I mentioned earlier, the back mountain is a good option. If we can snatch the Li family’s daughter quickly and make our escape, we’ll have the upper hand."
Mei’er’s lips curled into a smile as she added, "From what I know, Dark Palace is also operating here. Maybe we can collaborate with them to ensure the mission’s success. Their demands are simple—they want 20% of the payment. They’re just here to make a quick profit. Their real target seems to be some rogue female assassin from their organization."
"Then agree to their terms. 20% it is."
"Alright, I’ll contact them later. If all goes well, the mission will take place within the week. I’ll keep you updated, Boss."
"Understood."
The burly man glanced expressionlessly at Bihu, who was still carving into his arm, and said coolly, "Bihu, tell the others to get ready. The mission will begin soon."
"Got it, Boss! Finally... it’s finally happening, huh? Hehehe..."
......
"Sigh..."
Xie Yuyan looked at her phone, her expression heavy as she read an article titled *How to Win a Man’s Heart*.
Whether it was going to an amusement park, shopping, or watching a movie together, she couldn’t do any of it. The only thing she could do was prepare a hot meal for Ye Feng when he got off work.
Ugh... there’s still so much I want to do with Ye Feng. How long will this life of hiding last?

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress?

As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
