Love makes fools of the wisest souls, but it's in those foolish moments that we find our truest selves.
That's what's happening with Long Tao right now. In his current state, he may have either found his soulmate in Wen Yuci or simply fallen victim to an obsession with her. The truth behind his feelings is unclear, but Axl, on the other hand, remains indifferent.
Well, to be honest, right now he is a little bit addicted to this job, as he has a pocket money of three million. Not only could he take revenge by slapping him out of his mind, but he was also handsomely rewarded for it. Where could he find such a nice job? The money seems to have come effortlessly, as if it were meant to be.
As Axl's gaze remains fixed on Long Tao, a spark of admiration flickers within him. Long Tao, in Axl's eyes, is nothing short of a walking bank, a treasure waiting to be plundered.
"Cough, cough.." Axl coughed in embarrassment and tried his best to cover his thoughts. He sp
As the car passed by, the sound of its roaring engine filled the air, causing the windows to rattle and the ground to vibrate.Axl woke up in a daze, feeling disoriented and unsure of where he was. His eyes caught a glimpse of a soft light that was not very dazzling, and he realized that he was inside a moving car. Axl propped himself up and sat up, taking a few seconds to orient himself. As his pupils slowly focused, he took in his surroundings and realized that he was in a car traveling through the city. The lights of the towering buildings passed by outside, creating a mesmerizing spectacle."Have you woken up?" The sound of someone speaking brought Axl back to his senses. He turned his head to look at the man beside him and was stunned.The man beside him was dressed in a Hawaiian shirt and black glasses, giving him a clown-like appearance. Despite the glasses, Axl could still tell that he was a handsome man, perhaps even rivaling his own good looks. What astonished him even more
Due to the conflict between the protagonist and a certain villainous Triad heir, Axl had been assigned to become a double agent to spy on the protagonist once he returned from the mountain. Now he is clearly on the villain camp, and according to the plot in his memory, he only has a few chapters left. His identity will be revealed because of a certain moron, which will invite the wrath of the protagonist. Thinking of this, Axl couldn't help but feel a heart attackThere is no way to escape; he is trapped here. The villain camp background is simply too much for him to handle, and as for joining the protagonist camp, looking at how his master and senior brother treat him like a servant on the mountain, he would rather die again than become someone's servant.Axl rubs his temples and shakes his head, trying to clear his thoughts.'Never mind,' he tells himselfLet's take this one step at a time. I know the plot already, so I should be able to make it through. He resolves to stick to the
After entering the company, Axl looked around his surroundings. "Yeline Care" was the name of the company where Ye Feng's mother worked. It was a personal care company that was involved in the development and production of various products related to personal skincare, beauty, and cosmetics.Axl went straight to the receptionist and said, "Hello, I have an appointment with your CEO.""Do you already have an appointment?" The receptionist frowned. How bold of this young man to claim he has an appointment with our CEO so blatantly."Yes, I was actually arranged to meet with your CEO by my senior brother, Ye Feng. My name is Axl," replied Axl, remembering that it would not be appropriate to claim that he had an appointment directly with the CEO."Ah, so it was you. Wait for a moment," the receptionist saidFortunately, Ye Feng had warned the receptionist about Axl's arrival beforehand, saving him from potential embarrassment. Soon, the receptionist girl at the front desk politely took hi
"You'll see a big gate on your left. It's the entrance to the community, and the security team should already have your car on their list," Lin Xilan instructed Axl, as they approached her villa. As they reached the gate, Axl slowed down and drove in without any problems.As they arrived at Lin Xilan's house, Axl parked the car, and Lin Xilan stepped out, stretching her toned body. Axl couldn't help but stare at her in awe at her proud figures.Lin Xilan quickly noticed his reaction and put down her arms, turning cold again. "If you're going to protect me, you'll have to live here from now on. Is that clear?" she asked him."Yes, boss," Axl nodded."Woof-woof!" Not long after, the sound of a dog barking was heard, and Axl turned around. "Oh, there are dogs here," he said, seeing a Siberian husky and a golden retriever. Axl crouched down and petted them both, making them wag their tails in delight.Lin Xilan looked at this and nodded in satisfaction. Looking at Axl and her husky, their
Axl knows that his first task is crucial in making a good impression on Long Sha. Long Sha has only one son, whom he loves deeply. Due to his affection for his son, Long Sha's career has been hindered several times because of his son's misdeeds. However, instead of just reprimanding and becoming angry with him, he always finds a way to protect and cover up for his son.For example, at this moment, there is a kidnapping incident happening in the hotel in front of him. And the culprit was exactly his own son, Long Tao. Long Tao, who cannot handle rejection, decided to kidnap the woman who always rejected him and bring her to this hotel.If the woman in question was a regular person, Long Sha could have covered up any problems. However, this woman is the same person over whom the protagonist Ye Feng and the villain Long Tao are fighting over. Furthermore, she happens to be Ye Feng's childhood friend and also holds the position of managing director at Biotech Corp., one of the biggest Sta
*Slash*There was the sound of something being cut. Wen Yuci, on the bed, stopped struggling immediately. Axl then pulled out the tape from her mouth and said to her, seriously..."You listen to me."---"Boss! Wen Yuci has been captured, and she's in the room now," Mobs A said.There was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and a gloomy voice sounded with a hint of anticipation."Are you doing things cleanly? No one knows, right?" Long Tao inquired."Clean! Of course, clean, boss. Rest assured, I've already arranged everything. Boss can only enjoy the nights, hahaha," the mob said lewdly."Good, good! Hahahaha, I will tell Father to promote you later," a gloomy and insolent laugh came from Long Tao mouth."God! Boss, I helped in this operation too!" Mob B chimed."Of course, everyone here will be promoted. You can rest assured, hahaha," Long Tao laughed.Then he continued with a gloomy sound mixed with a touch of cruelty, "Today, I will make this woman who never looked at me moan un
After a moment of silence, Axl picked up the wine glass from the table and drained it."Damn it," he muttered under his breath.He walked over to the large bed in the room and lifted the bedsheet to reveal Wen Yuci, tied up and lying face down in the middle of the bed. Axl had placed her there, since hotel beds usually do not have anything underneath the mattress."Okay, it's safe now. You can come out," Axl said to Wen Yuci.She slowly emerged from the bed, using her smooth white arms to struggle and grab the cornet of the bed and pulled her body to get out from there. Axl had previously used his dagger to cut the ropes that had bound her arms and legs, freeing her from captivity. However, before he could give her further instructions, Long Tao and his gang arrived, and Axl quickly shoved Wen Yuci into the bed to hide her.Wen Yuci crawled out of bed, smoothing out her clothes and skirt, but her eyes never left Axl. However, Axl's attention was not on her, as he was still thinking ab
When the police officer took out the handcuffs and wanted to lock Axl's hands, Wen Yuci, who saw this, hesitated for a moment before speaking up. "No, he is not the kidnapper, he is the one who saved me."The police officer looked surprised. "What? Miss, are you sure?"Roman, her butler also chimed in, "Yuci, just tell the truth, if he threatens you, I will blast his head directly," Roman said while glaring at Axl.Wen Yuci waved her hand to Roman to calm him down and nodded firmly, "I'm sure! He's innocent and my savior"The policemen looked at each other in confusion. One of them said, "But we received a report that a man kidnapped Miss Wen and brought her here, and now it's only you and him in this room. Are you sure he's not involved?"Wen Yuci nodded again in confirmation, and Axl, who had been standing quietly, couldn't help but sigh in relief. He had been through enough trouble today, and the last thing he wanted was to be arrested by the police.The police hesitated for a mome

Axl's question left Long Tao at a loss for words, and despite a lingering feeling that something was amiss, he couldn't quite put his finger on it. His mind seemed to refuse to provide him with an answer.However, when he heard that he had nearly jeopardized his father's carefully crafted plan, Long Tao reluctantly accepted it. Now, he found himself trapped in the situation. What else could he do? After all, his emotions had erupted when he witnessed his beloved Wen Yuci with another man.Now, He felt torn between his deep emotions for Wen Yuci and the embarrassment of his misunderstanding.Axl observed Long Tao's state of inner conflict, naturally knowing the dilemma unfolding before him. He couldn't help but revel in his twisted satisfaction. He relished in the sight of the young man's torment, The more he saw him, the more his own satisfaction grew as he witnessed his conflicted expression.'Eat this, huh. How dare you try to kill me earlier' Axl could
Axl was taken by surprise as Long Tao, accompanied by his goons and bodyguards, pointed directly at him and issued a swift instruction to his men. Sensing the impending danger, Axl realized that his only choice was to confront them head-on.Without wasting a moment, Axl swiftly removed his coat and propelled himself into the midst of the approaching crowd. Utilizing his extensive martial arts training, he skillfully incapacitated each bodyguard one by one. His movements were smooth and precise, causing the once-confident group to fall to the ground, their pained groans filling the air.After swiftly incapacitating Long Tao's men, Axl emerged from the altercation unharmed, except for his slightly disheveled hair. Ignoring his appearance, his focus remained fixed on Long Tao, who hurriedly retreated to a waiting car, desperate to escape.Silently and determinedly, Axl propelled himself towards the fleeing Long Tao, disregarding any obstacles in his path. With unwavering speed, he closed
Seeing Axl's fearless demeanor, Wen Yuci couldn't help but feel curious about his true identity. How could he be so confident and arrogant? However, she was aware that she barely knew Axl, and even if she were to ask him directly, he probably wouldn't reveal much.Suppressing her curiosity, Wen Yuci simply nodded in acknowledgment."Give me your number, and I'll transfer the money directly to you," she said, trying to maintain a sense of normalcy.Axl nodded and proceeded to provide her with his bank card number. As soon as he finished sharing the details, Wen Yuci hurriedly searched for her phone. After a brief moment, a message popped up, indicating that the money had been successfully transferred to his bank account.Axl picked up his phone and confirmed the deposited amount, nodding in approval."Alright then, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave," Axl said, turning around and walking away.Unbeknownst to Axl, Wen Yuci, who stood behind him, gazed at him intently. Her eyes
As Axl watched Long Tao walk away, he couldn't help but analyze the potential consequences of the situation. He had expected Long Tao to recognize him instantly, but it seemed that was not the case.There were several possible explanations for this unexpected turn of events.Firstly, Axl considered the idea that Long Tao's excessive indulgence in alcohol and women may have significantly deteriorated his cognitive abilities. Such a lifestyle could have led to a decline in his memory, making it difficult for him to recall faces accurately.Secondly, Axl thought about the possibility that Long Tao was purposefully ignoring him, even if he did recognize him. It was conceivable that Long Tao had assumed Axl was already dead and that the resemblance between their faces was merely a coincidence.Thirdly, Axl entertained the notion that Long Tao might have been driven by a desire to show off his vanity and masculinity in front of Wen Yuci, disregarding any connection he may have had with Axl.
In a burst of fury, Long Tao pointed a trembling finger at Axl, his voice laced with venomous rage. "How dare you! You are dead! Do you hear me? Dead!"Axl, on the other hand, seemed to take pleasure in the chaos he had caused. With a smug grin, he responded to Long Tao's threat, further provoking him. "The woman you like is in my arms!"Meanwhile, unbeknownst to both Long Tao and Axl, Wen Yuci found herself caught in the midst of this confrontation. Her face flushed with embarrassment and anger, and she struggled to make sense of the situation. The conflicting emotions within her caused her cheeks to burn, fueling her fury as she stood there, feeling trapped and unsure of how to proceed.In this particular scene, Wen Yuci found herself inadvertently caught up in Axl's manipulative scheme. Initially, she had planned to use Axl as a shield, hoping that his presence would divert Long Tao's attention and buy her some time to relax. However, she never anticipated that Axl, this audacious
*TAP*TAP*TAPWith a confident stride, Long Tao entered Wen Yuci's office as if he owned the place. He carried a bouquet of flowers and directed a soft gaze at Wen Yuci."Yuci, I've come to see you,"Wen Yuci furrowed her brows at his unannounced entrance, even disregarding the basic courtesy of knocking on the door. As a member of a prominent family that placed great importance on etiquette, Long Tao's actions earned him zero points from the start.Ignoring her reaction, Long Tao locked his gaze on Wen Yuci and spoke, "I've come to see you, and I've brought gifts. These flowers are just the beginning. I also purchased a supercar for you, parked downstairs."Wen Yuci, however, remained unaffected by his words. Being from the wealthy Wen family, material possessions held little sway over her. She held disdain for Long Tao due to his ignorance and incompetence, his constant pestering only served to exacerbate her feelings.Long Tao, sporting an oblivious smile, appeared unfazed by her in
Unaware of her thoughts, Axl, who was already halfway into Wen Yuci's office, was shocked by her outburst.'What the hell? Does she want to kill me?!' Axl's heart raced, and his senses heightened to the maximum as Wen Yuci's outburst took him by surprise.The memories of the bomb that had exploded in Ye Feng's car were still fresh in his mind, leaving him on edge and hyperaware of any potential threats. In that moment, Axl's instincts kicked in, reminding him to stay vigilant and prepared for any danger. However, when he looked at his surroundings, he quickly realized the woman in front of him was the culprit.Irritated, Axl's frown deepened as he found Wen Yuci's question to be rather strange. "Why can't it be me?" He retorted, his voice tinged with annoyance.For a moment, Wen Yuci didn't immediately respond to Axl. Instead, she carefully scrutinized him from head to toe, her curiosity piqued about the true nature of Axl's relationship with Lin Xilan.
On Axl's side, as he boarded the car and set off, he couldn't shake off the feeling of helplessness that gripped him. His reluctance to go to Wen Yuci's company stemmed from his knowledge of an unfolding plot involving a troublesome second-generation rich man named Long Tao.How did he come to know about this plot? Well, it's not important how he acquired the information because it eventually unfolded as he predicted.Long Tao had been persistently pursuing Wen Yuci, determined to make her his own. Every single day, he would visit her company, pestering her incessantly. It seemed that the more she rejected him, the more determined he became.Long Tao's face-saving endurance grew stronger with each rejection. This is precisely why Axl felt a certain reluctance to accept the job in the first place. The situation made perfect sense to him, as he was aware of the persistent and troublesome nature of Long Tao's pursuit.Axl's concern intensified as he worried
