As Huo Jingmo regained consciousness, he hurriedly moved away from Qian An, but the feeling of his heart pounding had not completely dissipated.

This made Huo Jingmo mistakenly believe that he had been attracted to the person in front of him for a moment.

Huo Jingmo glanced at Qian An with a complicated expression, tidied himself up, and left the room.

Qian'an followed her out, looking at the peaceful scene on the ship, thinking that they would be arriving soon.

Dark City, a place filled with bloodshed and violence.

It's full of people wanted by the federal government; it's a gathering place for extremely dangerous individuals.

I wonder if Director Wu can handle it.

Huo Jingmo walked ahead, clutching his heart to savor the feeling he had just experienced.

Ruan Qian'an has always been a thorn in Huo Jingmo's side. He was fully aware that he loved Ruan Qian'an.

But at this moment, he so easily fell for another person.

Moreover, this person was sent by Wuqing, so he had to be on guard. There were men and women thrown into his bed before, and he could feel that this time the attack was fierce.

The people this time are very different.

It's not surprising that someone capable of subduing a monster like Ruan Qian'an would possess captivating tricks.

This made Huo Jingmo even more wary of Qian An. At this moment, Qian An was following behind Huo Jingmo and didn't think that much was going on.

She didn't know that Huo Jingmo was already treating her as an enemy and was on guard against her. She just wanted to be with Huo Jingmo in a different guise.

Although my feelings are a bit complicated, isn't it good to be with him in the end? But yesterday I almost used other methods to force him to fall in love with me.

Qian An walked briskly with her hands behind her back; Huo Jingmo probably didn't like that.

Lost in thought, Qian'an bumped into Huo Jingmo's back.

Qian An cried out in pain, realizing this was a good opportunity; Huo Jingmo would surely come to comfort her.

As a result, Huo Jingmo just stood there blankly, not even feeling when he bumped into him.

When she saw the situation clearly, Qian An almost ground her back teeth to powder.

Huo Jingmo grabbed a woman's wrist and held it tightly, not letting go. It was as if he had found a lost treasure.

When Qian'an saw the person clearly, she immediately gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath, "Damn it, how could such a big ship collide with Wu Ying?"

Huo Jingmo exclaimed in alarm, "Ruan Qian'an?!"

Number 2 turned around, and when he heard Huo Jingmo call out Ruan Qian'an's name, a playful smile appeared on his slightly tired face.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Qian An quickly stepped forward, separated the two people's hands, and firmly grasped Huo Jingmo's hand, saying, "Men and women should not touch each other."

Huo Jingmo stared intently at Number 2, feeling a familiar aura emanating from him.

Number 2 countered, "Do you know Ruan Qian'an?"

Huo Jingmo frowned as he looked at the face that was exactly the same as Ruan Qian'an's, but the hair was silver-white, the eyelashes were silver-white, and the eyes were blue—all of which were different from Ruan Qian'an's.

The appearance of Number 2 was more akin to the absurd dream he had earlier. Huo Jingmo's cheeks flushed; he remembered when it had happened—at the hotel.

Fish tail, blue eyes, silvery-white eyelashes, and scales on its face that resemble flower petals.

These characteristics are more relatable to the person in front of me than to Ruan Qian'an.

Perhaps it was because of his face being the same as Ruan Qian'an's that Huo Jingmo felt threatened and involuntarily stepped back.

Huo Jingmo said, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake."

Qian'an gripped Huo Jingmo's hand tightly. Huo Jingmo didn't understand why he cared so much about Wu Ying. He glared at Wu Ying with a fierce expression.

Qian An gripped Huo Jingmo's hand so tightly that Huo Jingmo cried out in pain, "Let go!"

Qian An hurriedly composed herself and released his hand.

Qian An looked at Huo Jingmo and said subconsciously, "I'm sorry, I hurt you."

Huo Jingmo frowned and rubbed his wrist, saying, "No."

Number 2 looked at Huo Jingmo with obvious interest, then invited him, "Let's go for a drink."

Huo Jingmo replied without the slightest hesitation, "Okay."

Qian An stood there all alone, his eyes gloomy, his lips tightly pressed together, and a glint of dark blue flashed in his eyes.

A little girl with her hair tied up in a bun appeared next to Qian An and said, "You've been abandoned."

Qian An gave a light "hmm" and slapped Xingxing's head hard, saying, "Little brat, you talk too much."

Xingxing: "Because Xingxing is very happy, because she can find those older brothers and sisters in Dark City."

Qian An burst out laughing: "You're happy to be able to boost your sales figures with those older brothers and sisters, aren't you?"

Xingxing grabbed Qian'an's dress with one hand and said, "What does it matter? Everyone has their own abilities."

"Moreover, because of our boss, we Dark Concealment assassins are not allowed to enter Dark City."

Xingxing smiled brightly: "All those with bounties on their heads are heading to Dark City."

Qian An smiled faintly, patted Xingxing's head and said, "It's okay, the people in Dark City will reform them."

A boy carrying a laptop came out, making a cackling sound: "Xingxing, let's go, don't bother the boss."

Xingxing released her grip on Qian'an's dress and replied, "Okay."

Their presence gradually diminished until they disappeared from the area.

Qian An walked towards Huo Jingmo's location.

Seeing the two people sitting at the round table getting closer and closer, Qian An quickened her pace and walked over to them, sitting between them.

Huo Jingmo raised an eyebrow; he had thought this person wouldn't follow.

It seems they saw someone like Ruan Qian'an and went to report it to Wuqing.

With a smile on his lips, Huo Jingmo politely introduced the two parties, saying to Qian An, "This is Miss Wu Ying, who is here on vacation."

Qian An rolled her eyes inwardly, thinking that Wu Ying was really talking nonsense, and that she came to vacation from who knows where.

He smiled and said, "Hello."

Huo Jingmo pointed at Qian An and said very simply, "Qian An."

Wu Ying looked at Qian An and said, "Are you Ruan Qian An?"

Qian An was in a bad mood, and when he heard Wu Ying ask this question, he said impatiently, "My surname is Qian, and my given name is An."

Wu Ying had a knowing look on her face, but she didn't say anything. The murderous intent in her eyes was so strong it could pierce through Qian An.

However, because there were still so many people present during the day, she maintained a good expression.

Wu Ying said, "Mr. Huo just talked a lot about Ruan Qian'an."

"This woman is such a scumbag; she actually hurt others like that."

Qian An stared at Huo Jingmo with wide eyes, her eyes full of hurt, as if to say, "Why did you tell others but not me?"

At least that's what Huo Jingmo thought. Similarly, Huo Jingmo didn't understand why Qian An looked at him with that kind of gaze.

He clearly said the same thing to her about Ruan Qian'an as he did to Wu Ying.

It was all just a test.

Wu Ying's eyes were filled with a wicked sense of amusement as she moved closer to Huo Jingmo from another direction.

He whispered a few words in Huo Jingmo's ear, and Huo Jingmo raised an eyebrow, a slight ripple appearing in his calm eyes, before slowly nodding.

Qian'an felt a surge of secret joy as Wu Ying got up to leave, but when Huo Jingmo got up to leave as well, Qian'an realized they just wanted to get rid of her.

Qian An grabbed Huo Jingmo's wrist, her eyes pleading with him not to abandon her.

Huo Jingmo said with a forced smile, "I'm just going over there to buy something."

Watching Huo Jingmo walk further and further away, Qian An touched her cheek in a daze and felt a wetness.

I felt utterly bewildered: "What's going on?"

Then tears streamed down her face like a broken string, and the suffocating feeling felt completely foreign to Qian An.

She never considered what she would do if Huo Jingmo's gaze were to leave her.

The feeling that Huo Jingmo was out of her control made her cry, which was quite pathetic.
