The glass shards and bloodstains in front of the bar had been cleaned up by the waiter, and a new glass of juice was placed on the bar.

The waiter, seeing An Mingji return, was about to ask about his injuries but was silenced by a warning glance from the young man.

The waiters at Night Paradise were mostly sharp-witted, so he immediately shut his mouth.

Gu Jin did not notice this scene.

She sat back at the bar, glanced at her phone’s time, and found it was already past eleven at night.

"Xiao An, do you want to go home?"

"Yes!"

An Mingji was now eager to figure out what Shi Yuanbin, Yang Peiwen, and Yang Miaomiao were up to.

Especially this woman, Yang Miaomiao. From the initial contact, he had always had an intuitive sense of danger about her. She seemed pure and innocent, like a "green tea girl," but he always felt it was just a facade. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

The occasional dark aura she exuded made him particularly cautious.

He had previously tested whether Yang Miaomiao had any cultivation, but to no avail—she had no cultivation at all.

It was only after he accidentally witnessed a scene at school that he realized how terrifying and unfathomable her abilities were.

That day, to avoid being teased by classmates about him and Yang Miaomiao, he hid on a sloped lawn at school, in a concealed position shaded by a large rock.

It was that day when he saw with his own eyes Yang Miaomiao turn a living person into a mummified corpse, their flesh seemingly drained, the method terrifying and nauseating.

That day, he realized Yang Miaomiao’s power was likely above his own.

Since the moment she started approaching him, she had occasionally mentioned A-Jin.

For A-Jin, he could not allow any mistakes or anyone with potential danger to exist around her, so he sent someone to investigate Yang Miaomiao’s hometown, Shenzhen, as recorded in her dossier.

Tonight, the call from Kasi confirmed his suspicions.

If the target was A-Jin, given the cruel methods of the opponent, there would be no trifling skirmishes.

He must expedite dealing with Yang Miaomiao; she was too dangerous!

He will not allow A-Jin any harm, nor allow anyone with potential danger to exist around her.

"Then let’s go. I’ll give Hai Ge and Jie Ge a call to inform them."

Gu Jin stood up and dialed the number on her phone.

An Mingji obediently followed behind her.

No matter how much he worried inside, he showed no sign of it on his face.

As they passed room 8666, he stared coldly and grimly at the door.

No one should dare to harm his A-Jin—not even think about it.

Yang Miaomiao, she must die!

...

Left Bank Pavilion.

Upon arriving home, Gu Jin first removed her high heels and changed into comfortable house slippers.

"Welcome home, young master, and Miss Gu. The kitchen has prepared an Italian vegetable soup. Would you like some?"

"Thanks to Ms. Kasi for the late-night treat. I’ll have a bowl, please."

Gu Jin playfully and affectionately thanked while heading to the restroom.

"Miss Gu, you’re too kind. It’s my duty."

Kasi slightly bowed to her departing figure, then turned to An Mingji, who was changing his shoes, "Would the young master like a bowl as well?"

"Yes."

After changing his shoes, An Mingji headed straight to the kitchen.

While he washed his hands, Kasi entered as well.

As she ladled the soup, she began, "Young master, the people below have uncovered some information: Yang Miaomiao had contact with people from Siam Country. The superhumans there mostly have bizarre Dark Skills, and their methods are cruel and sinister, extremely terrifying—"

An Mingji suddenly raised his hand, "Let’s talk about it later in the study."
