He looked at An Xunuo’s chest with another hope. An Xunuo’s face turned red. She became slightly angry and her chest heaved. Since she would not be able to get out of the discotheque in a short time, she had nowhere else to hide the chip and thus decided to hide it in her bosom to minimize the chances of it being found during a search. She did not expect Ye Ningyuan to take it from her sneakily.

And to think he even dared to deliberately make fun of her.

That pervert!

Ye Ningyuan smiled as he exited the highway and headed into the mountain.

The mountain roads were winding, with one segment having three corners back to back. With cliffs and valleys to the sides of the roads, everything looked dangerous. For a moment, An Xunuo had no idea what Ye Ningyuan was up to.

She was expecting a few vehicles on the road but did not expect several cars and motorcycles to head downhill in the opposite direction. She could not help but become curious. Where was it?

They reached the mountaintop quietly and stopped at a well-furnished open-air cafe called Happy Café. There were several cars stopped outside the cafe and it was very well-furnished. There were a few stalks of night orchids in full blossom emanating an invigorating fragrance. There was also a piano outside the open-air cafe where a man in a tuxedo played the famous ‘Für Elise’ from Beethoven.

The well-played piece, along with the moon in the night and stars that lit up the night sky left Xunuo bewildered. One rarely saw such a clear and beautiful night sky in London.

Three couples sat around the open-air cafe, and two young men were conversing in hushed tones and would smile once in a while.

With a whistle, a handsome man in a white suit, who seemed to be in his twenties, waltzed over. “Ningyuan, what brings you over here?”

“For coffee. How’s Uncle Little Iron?” Ye Ningyuan smiled and asked.

“He’s bringing his wife around the world,” the man replied.

Ye Ningyuan smiled in return. The man looked at An Xunuo next to him with slight bewilderment before whistling. “When did you have such a beautiful girlfriend?”

Seeing him quietly smile, An Xunuo coldly said, “I’m not his friend. I’m An Xunuo.”

“Hi, pretty lady! Since you are not his girlfriend, can you be my girlfriend, please? Look at me. I’m very talented, gentlemanly, well-educated, well-off, very skilled, and you’ve swept me off my feet. Would you be my girlfriend?” The young man broke into a gorgeous smile and looked at An Xunuo in a daze.

“How boring!” Xunuo raised her eyebrows and looked at him sternly. “You two know each other?”

“We grew up sharing the same pair of pants.” The young man smiled.

“You sure are a chatterbox.” Ye Ningyuan plainly laughed.

The man turned to look at Ye Ningyuan, and then at Xunuo before laughing out loud as he led them to their seats. He whispered something into Ye Ningyuan’s ear, and Ye Ningyuan rapped him on the head. The man only smiled and soon left.

“This place looks good, no?”

“You’ve brought me all the way here just to have coffee with you?” An Xunuo frowned. She could not quite believe what she heard. Was it really as simple as having coffee? She was expecting him to make things difficult for her.

She had also made up her mind to immediately leave if he made things difficult for her.

“No, you are treating me to coffee.” Ye Ningyuan smiled. “I opened this cafe after I moved in with some uncle and got bored with life. This cafe might be out of the way, but business has been very brisk.”

When An Xunuo alighted from the car, she noticed a little mansion behind the hilltop cafe that was built into the hill. While it could not be clearly seen in the night, the crystal lights in the house somehow brought out its silhouette. The specially-designed mansion spoke volumes about its designer’s talent. Living in such a quiet place was nothing short of ideal.

“Are you sure it’s just coffee?” An Xunuo asked in hesitation.

“If Miss An has something else in mind, I’d be more than happy to play along.” Ye Ningyuan smiled with squinting eyes. An Xunuo coldly harrumphed and turned away. He took a sip of lemon water and looked at her. Her side profile resembled Nuo Nuo.

He looked down with a complicated look as he knew she was not Nuo Nuo. Back then, he had already done his detailed investigations. She was indeed Michael’s own flesh and blood and not Nuo Nuo. After a moment of disappointment, he calmed down. Little did he expect to encounter her in Colombia, and his curiosity was piqued.

The young couple who were flirting with each other was two students of college-going age. The two were seemingly arguing about a dance, and the guy was trying to cajole the girl.

As Ye Ningyuan remained mum, the atmosphere felt a little different. An Xunuo felt queasy for some reason.

“Ye Ningyuan, return the chip to me once you’re done with the coffee.” An Xunuo, who did not know him well, did not know what else to talk to him about and hence mentioned only the chip. Ye Ningyuan looked up and gently smiled. “What are you going to do with this chip?”

“None of your business.” Xunuo coldly harrumphed.

Ye Ningyuan smiled. “Maybe I should ask this instead: Miss An, who are you working for?”

An Xunuo’s gaze lit up. “What do you mean?”

“In case Miss An has forgotten, I did encounter you when we were younger on some Spec-Ops Island,” Ye Ningyuan gently said. He saw Xunuo thrice back then, but Xunuo did not know who he was and had not seen him before. The Spec-Ops Island trained people who then became killers for a secret organization in Eastern Europe that targeted political leaders, acquired and sold intelligence, and dealt in massive profiteering. Strictly speaking, they were an NGO that was set up by an Eastern European called Leko more than ten years ago that profiteered from selling intelligence. They were non-partisan and worked for the highest bidder with scopes of work that ranged from wetwork to taking on rival triads.

Ever since his curiosity in her was piqued, Ye Ningyuan had Xunuo’s background thoroughly investigated.

An Xunuo suddenly stood up and subconsciously went for her gun. Her overly obvious actions started the other people in the cafe. The young men looked at her cold gaze curiously, whereas Ye Ningyuan simply drank his lemon water in as chill a manner as he could. He did not show his panic at all.

Everybody thought that it’s just a couple quarreling. A man laughed loudly and said, “Hey, buddy, your girlfriend is pretty. Try to coax her more because she’s angry.”
