Chapter 79 - I'm Sorry, Senior Brother
It was Mu Qing.
He had not been able to wait any longer. He'd applied for a flight and took a private plane over.
Xing Jiuan's soft hair stuck out of her head messily. When she saw Mu Qing, she thought about last night…
She had hung up on him!
It was at a time when her senior brother was feeling anxious about her safety.
She could not help but think that her senior brother must be very angry and anxious right now. If it was when she was young, she would probably have been slapped in the palm.
"Senior Brother," Xing Jiuan called out softly.
"Jiuan, don't scare me all the time." Mu Qing's voice was trembling. He felt relieved only after he'd looked at her all over to confirm that she was not injured.
Ou Qi and Lu Mingxi had come along as well, but they went to do something else.
Xing Jiuan made way as Mu Qing walked into her room.
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother." Xing Jiuan's voice was a little muffled.
She was just used to doing things on her own. She was also used to handling many things on her own. She knew that she would be fine.
However, she had caused her senior brother to be worried.
Xing Jiuan was saddened.
"No more next time, okay?"
Xing Jiuan remained silent.
After all, no one could predict what would happen in the future.
Mu Qing knew what she was thinking.
Xing Jiuan's thoughts were simply too easy to guess.
However, he did not insist that Xing Jiuan must agree to everything from the perspective of an elder senior brother. He knew this would make Xing Jiuan troubled.
"Promise me you'll always prioritize your own safety, okay?"
Mu Qing had long known that between him and Xing Jiuan, only he would take a step back.
Xing Jiuan fell silent. "…Alright."
Mu Qing did not stay for long. He could tell that Xing Jiuan was a little tired, so he left very quickly to let her rest.
However, Xing Jiuan could not fall asleep after Mu Qing left.
Her eyes were wide open, and no one knew what she was thinking. She stared at the ceiling for an unknown period of time until Mu Qing sent her a message, telling her it was time to eat.
Xing Jiuan got up and went to wash up.
After their meal, they prepared to head back.
The mission had been completed, and it was under the circumstances of being set up by the enemy.
An Yi's name was known by even more people now.
They were supposed to be careful when they traveled internationally.
Even if they were doing a good deed and the target of the mission was someone who had committed heinous crimes, there would be more people watching them from behind if they became known.
An Yi was too young, making people feel that she was just a young girl and a greenhorn. Even if she was quite powerful, she wouldn't be able to cause much of a stir.
However, she'd managed to escape the trap set by four professional killers and was successful in her mission.
As a result, she also became feared by more people as her reputation grew.
Xing Jiuan did not care about this.
When she saw Su Yize's resentful gaze for being abandoned at home by them, she felt like she had to reflect on herself.
However, Su Yize was still young and couldn't come into contact with their circle. Moreover, he was very easy to coax. Xing Jiuan only needed to use a few words to coax him.
He was much easier to coax than Xing Jiuan.
Su Yize didn't stay long either. He still had to go home. His homework, classes, and interests were waiting for his return. Su Yize couldn't bear to leave.
However, he had also discovered that what his senior brother and little senior sister did seemed to be quite mysterious. If he did not make himself more outstanding, he would not be worthy of being their little junior brother.
At this thought, Su Yize said goodbye to the others sadly. He was preparing to become an even more outstanding junior brother.
Su Yize's house was in the capital, but it was a little farther away. Moreover, Xing Jiuan and Mu Qing obviously didn't have much time to look for him.
Su Yize, who was about to enter school, had even less time to spare.
