"Are you here for tourism as well?"

Meeting someone she knows in a unfamiliar city makes Song Sisi feel quite good, and so, she appears a bit excited.

"Yeah, kind of."

Ye Qiu naturally wouldn't reveal that he is here on a mission, so he goes along with Song Sisi's words.

"Are you here alone?" Song Sisi asks again.

"Yes."

"What a coincidence, I'm alone too!"

As Song Sisi says this, her beautiful eyes smile in crescent shapes.

But as soon as she finishes speaking, Ye Qiu feels someone's gaze locked tightly on him, carrying an unabashed hostility.

This gaze comes from behind Song Sisi, and Ye Qiu now realizes that Song Sisi is not alone; there's another young man following her.

"Sisi, who is this guy?"

The young man is nearly driven mad, especially when Song Sisi just said she is alone—does he not count as a person? However, he doesn't express his anger but forces a rather unnatural smile and asks.

"My friend." Song Sisi isn't very enthusiastic towards this young man and responds coldly.

Initially, the young man didn't mind her cold attitude, but upon seeing the warmth she shows towards Ye Qiu, he feels uncomfortable and cautiously watches Ye Qiu.

"So, brother, you're Sisi's friend, nice to meet you. I'm Liang Yun, my family runs a foreign trade company, where are you employed, brother?"

As he speaks, Liang Yun's eyes are wandering over Ye Qiu, seemingly trying to figure out Ye Qiu's identity.

Seeing this, how could Ye Qiu not understand his meaning? This guy is probably a pursuer of Song Sisi.

"I drive for others," Ye Qiu casually replies.

"Driving for others? So you're a driver!" Initially, there was some apprehension on Liang Yun's face, but upon learning Ye Qiu's occupation, his vigilance disappears instantly and is replaced with deep disdain!

Yes, disdain!

In Liang Yun's view, Ye Qiu is merely a little driver. How could a mere driver compete with him, a manager in a foreign trade company, for a woman?

"How much is your monthly salary, brother?" Liang Yun asks again.

"Seven or eight thousand maybe?"

Ye Qiu is somewhat unsure; Bai Group has excellent benefits. Bai Lan initially offered Ye Qiu a salary roughly like this, though he was just an intern driver at the time. Now, it's different since he's not only officially employed but also a presidential assistant.

However, Bai Lan never mentioned salary after that, and Ye Qiu hasn't cared about it much either.

"Ha? Seven or eight thousand? That's not much," Ye Qiu's words only inflate Liang Yun's sense of superiority, "Brother, interested in joining my company? We happen to need a few people to do business work. Looking at your physique, you could fit well in this role; earning over ten thousand a month wouldn't be a problem if you perform well. Of course, there might be promotion opportunities in the future."

Although Liang Yun seems to be offering Ye Qiu a job sincerely, the mockery in his words is obvious to any observer.

"Liang Yun!"

Song Sisi can't stand it, and angrily calls out.

She has no liking for Liang Yun at all, moreover, Ye Qiu isn't just a simple driver. He's the private driver of Jiangnan City's top beauty, Bai Lan. Even more, setting aside that fact, Jiangnan City's Dark World overlord Ma Dongfei, upon meeting Ye Qiu, behaves like a grandson meeting his grandfather.

How could he possibly be a simple driver?

"Narrow-minded fool!"

Song Sisi immediately sentences Liang Yun in her mind and swears to never allow Liang Yun close to her again. How dare he look down on Ye Qiu? Unbearable!

"Got time? Let's grab a meal?" Song Sisi doesn't even glance at Liang Yun and asks Ye Qiu.

"No, I've got some things to take care of."

With the Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps issues weighing on his mind, Ye Qiu doesn't have much mood; he's planning to return and train like crazy, keeping himself in peak condition to be ready for any imminent combat.

"Alright then..."

After a brief conversation, they part ways.

Song Sisi gazes at Ye Qiu's departing figure, feeling a slight loss.

Song Sisi's behavior is scrutinized by Liang Yun, driving him almost insane. Nonetheless, he forces a smile uglier than crying, saying, "Sisi, how about I treat you to a meal?"

"No, I'm tired. I'll head back to the hotel to rest."

Without waiting for Liang Yun to say more, Song Sisi turns and leaves.

Just moments ago, she was talking about eating together, and now she's suddenly tired—clearly, she's disregarding him!

"Damn it, that bitch!" Liang Yun explodes in anger, feeling as if his lungs might burst, his face twisted with wrath, "Today's events can't just end here! Damn it, you two dirty lovers, just wait!"

...

Back at the training center, Ye Qiu wastes no time diving into that high-intensity training.

Cui Ping observes this, his curiosity growing stronger.

The intensity Ye Qiu is enduring is far beyond what ordinary special forces can withstand, yet not only is Ye Qiu enduring it, he seems completely at ease with it.

Watching Ye Qiu throwing punches, Cui Ping can't hold back.

"Sir, what fun is it punching alone? Why not let me train with you?"

In the military, strength is respected, and knowing Ye Qiu's exceptional prowess, Cui Ping has long been interested in sparring.

Ye Qiu glances at him and says blandly, "You're not an opponent."

"Hmm?" Ye Qiu's words stun Cui Ping, but soon fury rises within him; he's, after all, the top expert of the western military region. Can Ye Qiu determine he isn't an opponent with just one look? This must mean contempt!

"How will I know whether I can defeat you if we don't try?" Cui Ping angrily argues.

"Alright then."

Ye Qiu understands the character of these military folks. Their intentions are good, but if one declines, dissatisfaction follows. To gain respect, one must prove superiority in strength.

"Let's start!"

Once Cui Ping is ready, Ye Qiu utters.

"Come on!"

No sooner have Cui Ping's words fallen than Ye Qiu moves.

Ye Qiu's speed is extraordinarily fast—so fast that before Cui Ping can respond, he feels a blow to his chest, and then the whole body flies backward...
