Chapter 498
A sudden sniper shot threw everyone on the scene, including Xiao Long’s men, into high tension…
Who had pulled the trigger just now?noveldrama
Drip, drip, drip…
The sound of leather boots stepping on the ground, every footfall knocking on everyone’s sensitive nerves.
The footsteps were still far away, echoing in everyone’s ears.
“Who’s there!!!?” The female assassin stared in the direction of the tunnel exit.
They had people guarding the entrance of the tunnel. How could this woman have come in? Could it be that their buddies at the exit had all been taken out?
“Captain Xiao, have the reinforcements arrived?” The bodyguard behind Xiao Yun asked in a low voice.
Xiao Yun didn’t say anything, but there was a depth in his eyes. After listening to the footsteps for a while, he suddenly said, looking at the woman who walked out of the darkness, “Thanks for saving my life, beautiful lady. The only way I could repay is to offer myself.”
“You sure have the guts to offer yourself, but I’m afraid you’re not qualified!”
The woman who walked out of the darkness had a voice cold and cool. If it was accompanied by passionate music at this moment, it would probably make a blockbuster film. Everyone’s gaze was unconsciously drawn towards her.
She was a fit woman with a tan from the sun, with striking short hair. She wore short denim shorts, her tan legs lean and taut. Her white blouse was casually tied at her waist, revealing the contour of her abdominal muscles. She boasted a sporty elegance, and most importantly, she casually carried a sniper rifle over her shoulder.
Unlike traditional ladylike girls, this woman, without the need for extravagance, exudes a captivating, dominating temperament that is enough to alluring to men. But the truth is, she’s a lethal poison.
Xiao Yun leaned against the car, his eyes containing nothing but her. He chuckled softly, “If offering myself is not enough, I can be your plaything. If I don’t repay the favor of saving my life, it would weigh heavily on my conscience.”
“Heh…” The woman chuckled without a word, not with coy embarrassment but a continued disregard of Xiao Yun. Her laughter was clearly mockery, as if to imply he was not even qualified to be her casual plaything.
“Who is she?”
The female assassin grew annoyed. The man she set her sights on was blatantly courting another woman in front of her. What about her pride?
Xiao Long squinted at the woman who was coming in their direction, recognizing her with a touch of surprise in his voice, “Is that Huo Liuli?”
“What? She is Huo Liuli?” The female assassin’s voice held a touch of surprise.
Her scrutinizing gaze was blatantly scanning Huo Liuli who was walking towards them. Comparing from faces to slender, lean legs, trying her best to outdo Huo Liuli, she finally realized without a doubt that she had lost.
Not many had seen Huo Liuli in person. Upon Xiao Long’s recognition, everyone was throwing their intense gazes at Huo Liuli.
Huo Liuli was the queen of the mercenary world, ranked top in the mercenary rankings. Many sought to bring her down, yet rumor had it that no man had ever caught her eye.
“Xiao Long, you’re quite arrogant, ignoring all rules even in a competition. Do you want your sis here to teach you some manners? …. Huh?”
By her last word, Huo Liuli’s voice turned frigid, akin to an Arctic glacier, making one shudder to their core.
