1314 Taking Action
“Are you serious?”
Without waiting for anyone to react, Bai Zhou was unwilling.
He quickly picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. Then, he said, “It’s just so-so.”
Seeing his stubborn appearance, everyone couldn’t help but laugh again.
At this moment, Chi Lian said, “Alright, since Brother Yu and Buyao have eaten it, let’s not be afraid. Try it.”
When everyone heard this, they agreed and picked up their chopsticks to eat.
In the end, Bai Zhou lived up to everyone’s expectations. The stewed beef brisket with potatoes he made won the most unpalatable award in this New Year’s Day culinary competition.
Bai Zhou was naturally unconvinced. He insisted he did not perform well, but the result of a unanimous vote could not be changed just because he was unconvinced.
…
On 2 January 2003, the day after New Year’s Day, everyone set off according to their original groupings.
Jian Ai initially wanted to see Ji Haoyu before setting off, but after thinking about it, she decided to tell him her thoughts after she returned.
Ever since she faced her heart and admitted her feelings for Ji Haoyu, Jian Ai’s state of mind differed completely from before when she thought of Ji Haoyu.
Amidst longing, there was a sweet taste. The corners of her lips subconsciously curled up.
According to the groupings, Jian Ai, Gale, and Robert were on the same team. They had to deal with the person ranked last among the eight people on the other side.
Although this was not the first time Jian Ai had taken part in actual combat, without the people from the ancient sect by her side, it was impossible to say that she was not nervous at all.
On the plane to Yemen, Robert handed Jian Ai a glass of water and said, “Gale is already waiting for us in Yemen.”
Jian Ai thanked him and pursed her lips. “I hope everything goes smoothly.”
Robert was also a person of few words and had not interacted with Jian Ai for long. He had only heard Andrew mention that this girl, who looked to be in her teens, was the leader of the ancient sect.
While Robert was surprised, he was also curious about Jian Ai.
However, Jian Ai’s nervousness was not fake, so Robert comforted her. “Don’t worry, Gale and I will protect you.”
“You have to be careful too. I won’t drag you down.” Jian Ai was touched, but she promised.
Jian Ai had a certain understanding of her abilities. At the very least, she should have no problem protecting herself. She did not want to become a burden on the team.
Robert nodded gently. “We still have to fly for a long time. Sleep for a while…”
At a tourist destination in the Hawaiian Islands…
The sea breeze blew, and the air on the entire island was salty and wet. It was exceptionally intoxicating.
After night fell, the bars on the island entered peak business hours. Tourists stepped out of the hotels to experience the leisurely life on this island.
Chi Lian was wearing a low-cut red dress that revealed her hot figure. She had a huge flying saucer-like hat on her head, and wherever she went, she attracted everyone’s attention.
Chi Lian entered a bar called MISS from the main entrance amidst the tourists and sat down at the bar counter.
The music in the bar was noisy. Guests of all skin colors gathered together, talking, chatting, and drinking. However, the moment Chi Lian appeared, the atmosphere froze for a moment.
Such beauty was rare.
Chi Lian flipped her hair sexily and gave the bartender a charming smile. “A glass of Bloody Mary.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a muscular White man with a bare upper body couldn’t help but go forward to strike up a conversation. The man supported himself with one hand by the bar counter and turned slightly to reveal his impressive figure. His jade-blue eyes were exceptionally charming. He looked at Chi Lian and said in a standard English accent, “Beauty, can I treat you to a drink?”
Chi Lian glanced sideways and acted as if she had come to a bar to look for an affair. Her gaze wandered on the man’s chest and abs for a moment, as if she was very satisfied with the other party’s conditions. She smiled and answered readily, “Thank you.”
Seeing that there was a chance, a layer of ambiguous emotions instantly appeared in the white man’s eyes. He pulled a chair over and leaned against Chi Lian to sit down.
The earring on Chi Lian’s left earlobe was equipped with miniature earphones. The mercenary group also provided this equipment.
Andrew, who was on the same team as Chi Lian, was sitting in the long corridor by the road outside the bar to observe the situation. Their target was Trump, who was ranked third among the eight. According to their tracking, Trump had been on this island for the past month, and he would come to this bar every night at ten in the evening.
Louise’s information showed that this Trump was an amorous seed. He would take a woman away from the bar every day, and the target was random.
Therefore, Chi Lian turned herself into bait to catch him.
If she could kill him, they could avoid a fierce battle.
Andrew was a Black man, so sitting under the long corridor at night would attract almost no attention. He looked at the time and saw it was already ten in the evening.
Andrew stared around like an eagle and finally saw Trump appear five minutes later.
He was wearing beach shorts and a pair of flip-flops. He was wearing a white vest and looked no different from ordinary tourists in the crowd.
After watching Trump walk into the MISS Bar, Andrew stood up and lowered his head slightly to say into the microphone at the collar of his shirt, “Chi Lian, he went in!”
Although the music was loud, Chi Lian could still hear Andrew’s voice. Her face was fine. While talking and laughing with the White man, she turned around and casually glanced at the door. She saw Trump walking in slowly.
“Target discovered,” Chi Lian turned her head and answered.
Andrew’s voice followed. “I’m in too. Nine o’clock behind you.”
“Got it,” Chi Lian said.
After Trump entered the bar, a waiter took the initiative to welcome him. It was obvious that he was a regular here and had a fixed seat.
Louise had long found the fixed location, which was the bar counter on Chi Lian’s left.
Trump walked over and sat down. His gaze naturally landed on Chi Lian. She had smooth and white skin unique to Asian women, an impressive figure, and faintly discernible long legs.
With just a look, Trump’s gaze changed, and he sized Chi Lian up from top to bottom without fear.
Chi Lian acted as if she did not see him and chatted exceptionally happy with the White man at the side.
At this moment, Trump suddenly stood up and walked to Chi Lian and the White man. He casually placed a hand on the White man’s shoulder and tightened his grip.
After the White man’s burly body received the force, he instinctively shrunk back. Then, Trump leaned into the other party’s ear and said something. The White man looked surprised and stood up to walk away without saying anything!
