Chapter 1318 I’m Getting Involved With Lily’s Matter
What a coincidence, Yun Jian actually did know Country B’s president, Peele.
She was incredibly calm looking at Grace and Lumada’s shocked faces.
“You… you k-know… Mr. President?” It was not just Grace who was shocked, Lumada who Yun Jian had stepped on the ground shuddered and asked her in an alarmed tone.
Village Chief Lumada was the head of a village, after all, while Grace was only an ordinary village woman. The shock that washed over her was surely greater than Village Chief Lumada.
Taking in both their astonishment, Yun Jian crossed her arms in front of herself and lifted her one leg on Village Chief Lumada’s back.
“He’s just a defeated opponent of mine,” Yun Jian said without any exaggeration.
Back then, she had received a mission to kill the ministers under Country B’s president, Peele. The man had just become president not too long ago and was in dire need of his ministers to help establish and secure his position.
Yun Jian’s consecutive assassinations of Peele’s ministers nearly threw him off the cliff of despair. The man was quite capable, managing to find Yun Jian after a long search, and offered immense fortune to plead Yun Jian to stop killing his men.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was on his knees begging her.
That was because Peele was powerless about it. He was unable to find Yun Jian even when Country B utilized all its military prowess, forget about killing her.
That time, Yun Jian was already planning to leave since she had accomplished her task but there was no way she was not accepting the offer when Peele came to her with so much valuable treasure. Who was she to reject wealth?
After that, Yun Jian unintentionally heard from others that Country B’s president, Peele, had gotten a side effect out of his fear for her. Once, someone had mentioned the name Slaying God in front of Peele and the latter fell off the dining table in fright.
Village Chief Lumada and others did not even think that Yun Jian was joking when they heard her. After all, they had witnessed her ability just now.
Which regular girl was this good? If it had been an ordinary girl, she would have cried for her daddy and mommy in fear now due to what Village Chief Lumada did earlier.
“Cough, cough…” Village Chief Lumada had to reevaluate Yun Jian now. He stared at her for a total of two seconds then asked her meekly, “You… you really know Mr. President?”
The status of Mr. President was basically someone they would never be able to meet in their lives be it to Village Chief Lumada or Grace. Hence, when they knew that Yun Jian knew the president—no matter the truth, their attitude toward her transformed drastically.
Yun Jian had long lifted her foot that was on Village Chief Lumada’s back. She was currently standing at the side aloofly.
“It’s just your president of Country B. Do I have to make it up?” Yun Jian retorted lightly.
Village Chief Lumada’s eyes swirled around before he ran over and kicked the men who put Lily into the gunny sack, growling, “Quick, let her—let her out!”
The men were surprised but they swiftly pulled Lily out of the gunny sack and untied her as well as removing the black tape over her mouth.
Lily panted loudly but she did not look scared.
Her stepmother, Grace, ran to Yun Jian; long gone was her aggressive attitude as she told Yun Jian obsequiously, “It was my fault. I should… I deserve to be hit! I should be hit! Don’t hold a grudge, yeah? I’m harsh with my words but I have a soft heart, I—”
Yun Jian did not listen to what Grace said. She took a step back and told Grace, “I’m not interested in what you do. We’ll be staying here for two days. What we’ve used, twice the payment will be made after that.”
“But I’m getting involved with Lily’s matter!”
