182: Paradise Island

How could his well-behaved and lovely girl be so stubborn?

The girl from the Ye family left the capital and even made herself notorious for it, but she still didn't get any result.

At this moment, he somewhat empathized with how Boss Ye must have felt. What did he used to say about Boss Ye back then?

The two families had a good relationship, so Li Chuning was able to hang out with Ye Qingyan.

Thinking about it now, it's not that karma doesn't exist; it's just that the time hadn't come yet!

If you don't believe it, look up; the heavens spare no one!

If Boss Ye found out about this, there's no telling how much he would mock him.

He glanced at his precious daughter. Forget it, he wouldn't say anything; it probably wouldn't help anyway. Debts to one's children are the hardest to repay.

Si Yang didn't feel much about the matter; he had more or less some understanding of Li Chuning's thoughts.

He hadn't intended for anything to happen in the first place; Li Zhendong was purely worrying over nothing.

In Central Sea, the setting sun on the horizon glowed with a final burst of radiance.

Beyond the southern tip of Daxia, on a sea island, the sunlight was currently bright.

By the seaside, a man was shirtless, his bronze skin throughout exuding a sense of powerful beauty.

His face was almost the same color as his skin.

His entire being gave off a lean and sharp impression.

It was none other than Heizi, who had been missing for many days.

That face was no longer simple and honest. In front of Si Yang, he was a younger brother, but out here, you had to call him Lord Hei.

The most outstanding assassin on Paradise Island, with zero failed missions, he was the person who had come closest to the core of Paradise Island in the shortest time. This was Heizi's new identity; this man's toughness was beyond doubt.

At this moment, Heizi sat by the sea, looking at the surging waves, lost in thought.

A man around thirty years old walked over slowly, his steps very light, appearing silently behind Heizi.

Heizi, who was lost in thought, suddenly turned around, slapped the reef with his palm, and his figure instantly sprang up. With one punch, he forced the man back, then followed him like a shadow, his hand gripping the man's throat.

“Lord Hei.” The man looked at Heizi with a smile that looked worse than crying; he felt as if he had almost been extinguished.

“Little North, nickname, remember, don't approach me like that next time. Otherwise, I can't guarantee I'll be able to pull my hand back.” Heizi loosened his grip and let the man go.

No one knew his real name; everyone called him Little North, nickname.

In this place, he was like a servant, mostly running errands for others on a daily basis.

“Looking for me for something?” Heizi asked while looking at him.

“Miss Mu Nancen has requested your presence,” Little North, nickname said respectfully.

“Mu Nancen?” Heizi smiled.

Mu Nancen's status on Paradise Island was very special. It was hard to define her position, but one could feel that she was not simple.

Heizi casually grabbed his outer coat and draped it over his shoulders, covering his wild physique.

Following Little North, nickname's lead, Paradise Island truly lived up to its name with beautiful scenery and villas built to be magnificent.

To buy such an island and develop it into this state naturally required powerful financial backing.

Upon arriving at Mu Nancen's villa, an exquisitely beautiful woman lay lazily on the sofa, her Bohemian-style long dress clinging to her shapely body.

Lazy and sexy.

An Eastern face combined with those crystal-like eyes full of exotic flair made her look like a peerless beauty.

Unfortunately, Heizi was a man without feelings and turned a blind eye to such charm.

Mu Nancen didn't mind this, her blue crystal-like eyes quietly watching Heizi.

“Looking for me for something?” Heizi spoke coldly. Although he knew this woman, they didn't have much interaction, and he admitted he couldn't figure out her background.

But he knew that this woman, who looked like a peerless beauty, was a venomous snake with strength almost equal to his own. Her delicate appearance was just a facade; if he were to be careless, he would likely die more miserably than a pig.

No one on Paradise Island was simple.

Even someone like Little North, nickname, Heizi never dared to underestimate.

The woman looked at Heizi, a seductive smile appearing on her face.

“I've seen you before!” Mu Nancen said with absolute certainty.

“I don't know about that, but I've definitely never seen you. Otherwise, I would likely remember a woman like you.” Heizi's tone was calm.

Whether she had actually seen him or it was just a probe, Heizi's response was flawless.

“Why be in such a hurry to deny it? Actually, I haven't seen you, but I've seen someone just like you. The feeling your temperaments give off is almost identical.”

“In a refugee camp in the Middle East, I was being hunted by assassins while on a mission and had no choice but to hide in the camp.”

“That person should be stronger than you, perhaps much stronger.”

Seeing Heizi's calm expression, the woman didn't mind. She knew people like Heizi had undergone special training; the possibility of finding a flaw on his face or using interrogation techniques to achieve her goal was almost zero.

“So, if there are no surprises, you should be from the Daxia Military.” Mu Nancen said with a beaming smile.

Heizi's expression remained calm, and he didn't speak.

However, a massive wave of shock surged in his heart. Stronger than him, much stronger, with almost the same temperament—without a doubt, it was Si Yang. He hadn't expected this woman to have seen Si Yang.

“Don't think about killing me to silence me. You might not be able to kill me. The possibility of an instant kill is almost non-existent; I still have that much confidence.”

“You don't need to deny it either. If I dare to say this, it means I'm certain, one hundred percent certain. But don't worry, I have no ill will toward you. Otherwise, right now, you would be being hunted down by the elites of Paradise Island.”

“Is that enough sincerity? So, what will you choose?” Mu Nancen asked with a smile.

“What do you want?” Heizi asked in a cold tone, looking at Mu Nancen.

Denying it was meaningless.

He was more curious about this woman's goal.

“I want to cooperate with you,” Mu Nancen laughed.

Half an hour later, Heizi left the villa with a somewhat complex expression.

When he turned around, he gazed deeply at the villa; he could feel that the woman was watching him.

Heizi sighed. This was the first time he had been cornered so completely.

She really was a woman so smart she left one speechless. However, the so-called cooperation wasn't without benefits; it was even a win-win. Otherwise, there might be a corpse now, or he would have had to fight his way out, though that possibility seemed slim.

If anyone could fight their way out of here, it would probably only be him.

In Central Sea, the moment the curtain of night fell, Ye Mengwan had already returned.

“I was delayed for too long, there are so many things to handle.” Ye Mengwan pouted her small lips, complaining to Si Yang.

“Then you'll have to eat more in a bit,” Si Yang said with a grin.

“You make it sound like I'm some kind of foodie,” Ye Mengwan said coquettishly.

She then looked at Si Yang with a lingering gaze. “I ran into Li Chuning just as I got back; she was pacing around the entrance. I invited her in, but she didn't come. You didn't do something to provoke her, did you?”

Si Yang looked up and frowned, his face full of confusion.
