Lin Xuan explained, "I am the person you're looking for. My previous appearance when meeting you was just a disguise."
The members of Night Rose stared at Lin Xuan in shock.
He was actually the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang.
The mask made by this Golden Dragon Gang leader was actually so incredibly effective?!
Indeed, the man their alliance leader had taken a liking to was truly extraordinary.
That subordinate from the Golden Dragon Gang had already briefed her in advance to address both parties as ordinary people.
Before she arrived, Secretary Jiang had also specifically instructed her not to reveal that the gang leader's girlfriend was their Night Rose alliance leader.
The Night Rose member collected her thoughts and said respectfully, "Mr. Lin, this is the gift our young lady has sent for you and your girlfriend."
She pointed at a burlap sack.
Lin Xuan frowned.
What kind of gift could it be, packed in a burlap sack?
Lin Xuan was so focused on the gift from Night Rose that he completely missed the dangerous look in his little woman's eyes beside him.
"Young lady?" Su Hua leaned against the back of the sofa with one hand, her beautiful eyebrows arched, a dangerous glint in her lovely eyes. "So it's a woman who's sending Ah Xuan gifts."
"I wonder where Ah Xuan met her?"
Lin Xuan said nervously, "Hua Bao, don't misunderstand. I don't have much connection with her. She's just a business partner of mine."
"Is that so?" Su Hua's eyebrow twitched slightly, leaving it unclear whether she believed him or not.
Lin Xuan's gaze wavered slightly.
Although he really had nothing going on with this Night Rose, Night Rose's attitude towards him was somewhat ambiguous.
He could only try to divert Hua Bao's attention to the gift first.
Lin Xuan spoke up, "What is the gift your young lady intends to give me and my girlfriend?"
"Mr. Lin, Miss, please wait a moment."
The Night Rose member emptied the contents of the burlap sack.
A human head rolled wetly out of the sack onto the floor.
Boom!
The members of the Golden Dragon Gang frowned deeply.
They whispered among themselves.
"What's going on? Why is Night Rose sending our gang leader a human head?"
"I don't know either. And, if it's for the gang leader, then it's for the gang leader. Why say it's a gift for the gang leader and his girlfriend? What does this have to do with the gang leader's girlfriend?"
"Wait, this head... it looks familiar."
One of the Golden Dragon Gang members stared intently at the head lying on the floor.
"Isn't this Xu Hui?" His eyes suddenly widened.
Others also connected the face of the head to Xu Hui's.
"It's Xu Hui! It really is Xu Hui! What's going on? How did Night Rose bring Xu Hui's head here? Also, when I saw Xu Hui this morning, she was perfectly fine?"
"Night Rose sending Xu Hui's head here, could it be a provocation against our Golden Dragon Gang?"
"That probably isn't the case. Night Rose is known for keeping promises. Since she agreed to cooperate with our gang, she definitely wouldn't do anything to sabotage the partnership."
Looking at the bloody head on the floor, Lin Xuan's hanging heart finally dropped dead.
Sure enough, the gift from Night Rose was nothing good.
The moment Su Hua saw the head, her first instinct was to pretend to be frightened and throw herself into Lin Xuan's arms.
But then it occurred to her: Ah Xuan knew about her past as an assassin. If she acted scared over a mere head,
it would be too fake, and she was worried Ah Xuan might think she was being pretentious.
So, Su Hua suppressed the impulse to throw herself into Lin Xuan's arms.
Lin Xuan whispered to Su Hua, "Hua Bao, killing is a common occurrence in the Black Triangle. Giving someone a human head as a gift is a normal thing here."
Wang Ba rolled his eyes.
Gang Leader, are you sure this is normal?
"Mhm." Su Hua nodded.
The Night Rose member had recognized Su Hua.
She looked at Su Hua, who was nestled close to Lin Xuan, dumbfounded.
This woman, acting so particularly submissive and wifely, was their alliance leader?
She couldn't believe it, rubbed her eyes, and looked again.
She still saw Su Hua standing beside Lin Xuan, looking utterly dependent, her sharp edges completely retracted, transformed into someone gentle and tender.
She never would have imagined that their aloof, notoriously ruthless alliance leader would act so much like a... little pampered wife in front of the Golden Dragon Gang leader.
It was utterly disillusioning...
"What does your young lady mean by sending me this human head?" Lin Xuan asked solemnly.
The Night Rose member explained, "Sir, this woman sought out our young lady and described your girlfriend's appearance to her. She wanted our young lady to deal with your girlfriend."
The Night Rose member glanced suspiciously at Su Hua.
To be honest, she was curious. Wasn't this woman already taken care of?
Why did the alliance leader still have Secretary Jiang arrange to bring this woman's head before the Golden Dragon Gang leader?
After hearing the Night Rose member's words, Lin Xuan's entire aura turned icy cold.
She actually dared to scheme to have Night Rose target Hua Bao!
"What was her purpose in wanting to harm Hua Bao?" Lin Xuan frowned deeply.
The Night Rose member replied, "Most likely, she had taken a fancy to you and wanted our young lady to eliminate your girlfriend so she could successfully take her place."
Lin Xuan was stunned and instinctively looked at Su Hua.
Sure enough, he saw Su Hua looking at him with a smile on her lips.
This smile looked somewhat chilling...
It's over.
Hua Bao is jealous, yet again!
"Hua Bao, I will definitely handle this matter properly," Lin Xuan promised.
He looked at the Night Rose member.
"Thank your young lady for dealing with her for me. May I ask, where is the rest of her body?" Lin Xuan inquired.
The Night Rose member didn't tell Lin Xuan that Xu Hui's body had been thrown into the Ten Thousand Serpents Pit. She only said, "We have already disposed of it."
Seeing her reluctance to elaborate, Lin Xuan didn't press further.
"Please convey my thanks to your young lady," Lin Xuan said.
"My delivery is complete, Mr. Lin. I shall return to report my mission."
The Night Rose member left the Golden Dragon Gang headquarters.
"Hua Bao, I..." Lin Xuan turned around, wanting to say something, but saw the mocking expression on Su Hua's face.
The words Lin Xuan was about to say got stuck in his throat.
"A woman who likes you, with her head chopped off?"
"Young lady?"
Su Hua stepped closer to Lin Xuan, one step at a time.
"Ah Xuan goes abroad once and brings back so many peach blossoms for me."
Su Hua's tone was dangerously intense.
Lin Xuan stepped back, step by step.
Su Hua advanced, step by step.
Finally, Lin Xuan was cornered against the wall by Su Hua.
The members of the Golden Dragon Gang kept stealing glances at the two of them.
In front of the gang leader's girlfriend, their gang leader seemed a bit... weaker.
The gang leader's girlfriend's posture was also very, very much like that of a domineering CEO...
Who would have thought this would be the dynamic between the gang leader and his girlfriend?
The Golden Dragon Gang members didn't dare to keep watching and quickly averted their gazes.
The gang leader cared a lot about his pride.
If they saw something they shouldn't, the gang leader might settle scores with them later.
