Time Travel: The 18th Line Star She is Not Simple
Chapter 165 Something is different
At this moment, in Bai Feifei's eyes, the old ghost was just a corpse for her to play with.
He believed that this woman would definitely do what she said.
Since he was going to die anyway, he didn't want to die in torture.
When Bai Feifei held the second bone in his hand, Lao Gui couldn't help but nod frantically, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything."
Bai Feifei then stood up, took the handkerchief handed over by the bodyguard, wiped the blood off her hands, and asked slowly, "Who sent you here?"
"I'm a thug from the Ross family." The old ghost confessed obediently, "The order to send me to kill Bai Feifei came from the master's side, but I don't know who gave the order."
"The Ross family?" Bai Feifei muttered to herself.
"Miss, what should we do with this person?" asked the bodyguard.
"Deal with it cleanly and give him a clean kill. The enemy is in the dark while I am in the light. I don't want to reveal my strength for the time being."
After giving the order, Bai Feifei stood up and left the room, "Prepare a new room for me. I can't sleep in this room anymore."
Bai Feifei changed to another room and continued to sleep. She was a little tired after a busy day.
When I was sleeping soundly, the door of the room was opened.
Bai Feifei woke up instantly. After seeing who was coming in the dim light, she relaxed instantly, continued to close her eyes, and said in a daze: "Brother Hao, why are you here?"
Seeing her dazed look, Qin Minghao sat down beside the bed and said gently, "As soon as I heard that you were in trouble, I rushed over. Are you injured anywhere?"
"No, these people are very weak. I can handle them in no time."
"The bodyguard has already told me the details. I will send someone to investigate. However, the Ross family is an old family with complicated forces. It is very difficult to find out the mastermind in a short period of time. We are in the open while the other party is in the dark. This is not our home ground. If we really start a fight, we will be in a passive position. You go back to the country tomorrow. Once we find out the mastermind behind the scenes, we can make long-term plans."
Hearing Qin Minghao say this, Bai Feifei opened her eyes and said seriously, "I plan to sneak into the Ross family tomorrow night to find out."
"The Ross family is a well-established family in Eagle Country, and it is full of experts. As far as I know, there are three high-level peak warriors in the Ross family's manor. It's too risky to sneak in with your current strength. I'm worried. Wait until I find out the situation before coming back, okay?"
Bai Feifei thought about it and it made sense. With her current situation where she was completely in the dark, she probably wouldn't be able to find much useful information even if she sneaked in. But she still wanted to sneak in and take a look.
She always felt that the bad luck she had encountered along the way was related to this person behind the scenes.
But why didn't he kill her before, but want to kill her now?
Could it be that because she was not well-known before and posed no threat to the other party, but now she has become a threat to the other party.
"I'm just checking it out and coming out. I won't do anything else. Don't worry, they won't be able to find me."
Although Bai Feifei's tone was negotiating, her meaning was not negotiable.
Qin Minghao knew that once Bai Feifei made a decision, she would not change it, but Ross Manor was really too dangerous. He didn't want Bai Feifei to take risks, and he couldn't bear any risk of losing Bai Feifei.
Since the hard one is not enough, then use the soft one.
Qin Minghao lowered his head and said in a desolate tone: "Go if you want to. Although I will worry all night, it doesn't matter. I have been worried all night today, and I can bear another night. Do you know? In the evening, when I heard that you were attacked, I was scared and immediately bought a ticket to come and confirm your safety. My heartbeat has not yet returned to normal."
As Qin Minghao spoke, he held Bai Feifei's hand and placed it on his heart, his tone full of worry.
"I'm afraid what if the people they send out are better than you? What if they are so cruel as to use large-scale lethal weapons against you? What if there are other emergencies that cause you to get hurt? I really don't want to see you as weak as last time."
This time he was not thoughtful enough. He did not expect that the person behind the scenes would actually kill Bai Feifei.
He had been regretting since the moment he heard the news, fearing that something unexpected would happen to Bai Feifei because of this negligence.
Thinking of the last time Bai Feifei was injured, Qin Minghao couldn't help but reveal a sad expression on his face.
Bai Feifei could truly feel Qin Minghao's worry and heartache, and a mixture of emotions surged in her heart.
In her previous life, because she showed her extraordinary talent for martial arts too early, people around her got used to her omnipotence.
Even if she was injured, people around her would only think that it was a badge of her hard work and victory, and no one would worry or feel sad about her injury.
This was the first time in her two lifetimes that she felt cared for and protected.
Bai Feifei stared into Qin Minghao's eyes. Since when did these indifferent eyes begin to be filled with tenderness and doting?
Realizing that something was wrong, Bai Feifei pulled her hand back and said uncomfortably, "I'm sorry, Brother Hao, I didn't consider your feelings. Book me a flight for tomorrow morning and I'll go back early."
After getting the result he wanted, Qin Minghao gently touched Bai Feifei's head, "Fei Fei, you never have to say sorry to me, understand?"
"Okay." Bai Feifei replied softly.
"Go to sleep. I'm next door. Call me if you need anything."
Only after Bai Feifei closed her eyes and fell asleep did Qin Minghao tiptoe out of the room.
The moment the door closed, Bai Feifei opened her eyes and stroked the hand that had just touched Qin Minghao's chest. Her hand felt a little hot, her ears were also hot, and her heartbeat became disordered at this moment.
It seemed like something was different between them.
Bai Feifei suffered from insomnia for the first time in her life. She lay in bed with her eyes open, thinking about all sorts of things, until she fell into a drowsy sleep in the second half of the night.
Her long-established biological clock made her wake up early. Looking at her haggard face in the mirror, she sighed softly.
In order not to worry Qin Minghao, Bai Feifei, who usually never wore makeup unless it was necessary, put on some light makeup for the first time.
She looked at the delicate face in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction, so that he wouldn't be able to see it.
After she had packed up, she opened the door and asked the bodyguard who was still standing guard at the door, "Is Brother Hao awake?"
The bodyguard replied: "Boss Qin has been awake for a while. He asked us to tell the young lady to go to the next room for breakfast when she wakes up."
Bai Feifei nodded and walked into the next room.
Qin Minghao was sitting at his computer desk handling official business, with a still-warm breakfast placed on the small coffee table next to him.
Qin Minghao raised his head, and the smile that was about to rise stopped. He immediately stood up and walked towards Bai Feifei, frowning and asked, "Why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm wearing makeup, can you still tell?" Bai Feifei asked in surprise.
"Don't change the subject. Is it because you can't go to explore the manor tonight that you didn't get enough rest?"
"No, I just didn't get enough sleep because I was thinking about the mastermind. I can just catch up on some sleep on the plane."
When the lady learned that the operation last night had failed and sent an expert to assassinate Bai Feifei, Bai Feifei had already boarded the plane back to China.
