Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

"Confess and you'll be treated leniently, resist and you'll be punished severely. Tell me! Where did you go last night?" Hongying stared dangerously at Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Qiye, holding a baseball bat in her hand, the bat whistling in the air.

"Uh, Sister Hongying, calm down..." Lin Qiye stepped back, trying to dodge the baseball bat that was pointed directly at his face.

"You two little devils, sneaking out without telling us!" Hongying said, hands on her hips.

"It was Shi Yuan who told me not to tell you!" Lin Qiye decisively betrayed Jiang Shi Yuan.

"So it was you!" Hongying angrily put down the baseball bat and pounced on Jiang Shiyuan, giving her a good rub.

"Lin Qiye, you're making false accusations! I only told you not to say that I woke you up! I didn't tell you to go out without telling everyone! Besides, you weren't asleep at all! Hongying, please let me explain..." Jiang Shiyuan was furious and tried to explain. She didn't expect that Lin Qiye didn't tell Wen Qimo, who was sleeping in the living room, when he went out.

"Sister Hongying, please let me go, I can't take it anymore..." Jiang Shiyuan's voice trembled at the end.

"You little brat, Jiang Shiyuan, you actually disturbed Qiye's rest. You deserve a beating." Hongying wasn't going to let Jiang Shiyuan off the hook and kept tickling her.

Jiang Shiyuan squirmed on the sofa, looking pitifully at Si Xiaonan, "Sister Xiaonan, please help me, we really are off to do something important!"

Si Xiaonan chuckled, "Of course we know what you're up to, otherwise Sister Hongying would have rushed out to look for you an hour ago."

Hongying stopped what she was doing after Si Xiaonan pointed it out. "Will you dare to do it again next time?"

“Didn’t you know where we went?” Jiang Shiyuan slumped on the sofa, angry but unable to speak out. “...Why did you let Qi Ye go? He went out too.”

“Since Qiye is considered a patient, let’s let him off this time.” Hongying clapped her hands and plopped down on the sofa.

Lin Qiye lowered his head, secretly relieved that he had escaped a disaster.

After the laughter and commotion, it was getting late, and everyone prepared to return to their rooms. Jiang Shiyuan followed behind Lin Qiye, trying to kill him with her eyes.

Lin Qiye felt a chill run down his spine: "..."

After giving Lin Qiye countless glares, Jiang Shiyuan returned to her room.

"Beep beep beep—beep beep beep—"

The phone on the bedside table kept vibrating.

Jiang Shiyuan picked up her phone and saw several missed calls on the screen. The smile on her face suddenly froze, and her mood plummeted.

Even an ostrich buried in the sand will eventually have to face reality...

Jiang Shiyuan mentally prepared himself before answering the call.

"Hello? Shi Yuan, you finally answered the phone!" A gentle female voice came from the other end of the line.

"Aunt Chen," Jiang Shiyuan responded softly.

"Hey, why did you block your dad's number?" Aunt Chen's gentle voice carried a hint of reproach. "Your dad is angry because you didn't come home for the New Year, so he was a bit harsh with his words. But he's just concerned about you. Could you call him back when you have time?"

Jiang Shiyuan paused for a moment, without replying immediately.

"Hello? Shi Yuan, are you listening?"

Jiang Shiyuan walked to the window, drew back the curtains, and looked outside.

"I understand, I'll call him."

The sky was pitch black, and snowflakes were flying everywhere. Under the streetlights outside the villa, the white snowflakes flickered and appeared and disappeared, like countless stars falling.

The phone on the windowsill had long been disconnected. She just stared out the window for a long, long time…

……

The next morning, Jiang Shiyuan was woken up by her biological clock.

After six months of intensive training at the training camp, she had long since gotten used to waking up early every day, and even during rare holidays, she couldn't break the habit.

Upon opening the door, Wu Xiangnan and Hongying were already sitting in the living room.

"Let's go, wake up Qiye, we're going to buy groceries," Hongying said happily when she saw Jiang Shiyuan.

"I'll go call him!" Jiang Shiyuan was a very vengeful person. He revealed a sinister smile and walked towards Lin Qiye's room.

A pair of hands slowly reached for the doorknob, the movements gentle and silent. Half of the face was buried in the shadow of the hair, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of the mouth.

"Hey?"

Jiang Shiyuan's hands hadn't even exerted any force, yet the doorknob was pressed down by a sudden force. The next second, the door opened, and Lin Qiye, fully dressed, stood in the doorway, looking down at Jiang Shiyuan's mischievous grin. "What's this?"

"I came to wake you up, but I thought you were sleeping in." Jiang Shiyuan's plan was thwarted, and she pouted and turned to leave.

Lin Qiye glanced at the doorknob, feeling that Jiang Shiyuan wouldn't stop causing trouble. He wondered if it was a good thing or a bad thing that he had sold Jiang Shiyuan out and escaped from Hongying's clutches yesterday.

"Let's go grocery shopping!" Once everyone was there, Hongying called out and prepared to drive off.

……

As the group walked through the market, Hongying wore an expectant smile.

"Fried Shrimps!"

"Supreme Crab Pot!"

"Manchu Han Imperial Feast! Manchu Han Imperial Feast!" Jiang Shiyuan shouted.

"...That's probably unlikely." Lin Qiye followed behind, carrying the vegetables, his hands completely full of them.

The group returned home laden with their purchases and prepared to get into their car to go home.

Just then, a small sword landed in front of Lin Qiye. On a high-rise building, a figure wearing a cloak stood with his back to the sun, quietly watching them.

Hongying handed all the bags in her hands to Jiang Shiyuan, snorted coldly, and chased after him.

Lin Qiye scanned the note on the arrow with his spiritual power, his expression changed, he placed the vegetables in his hand on Si Xiaonan, and disappeared from the spot.

Jiang Shiyuan and Si Xiaonan: "..."

Jiang Shiyuan struggled to hold onto the groceries, preventing the bag from slipping. "Sister Xiaonan, can you still hold onto this?"

Si Xiaonan, "...It's a bit difficult."

After finally getting the groceries into the car, they discovered that neither of them could drive, so they had no choice but to sit in the car and wait for Hongying to return.

Jiang Shiyuan sat in her seat, looked out at the street, and sighed. She summoned the system panel, opened the equipment shop, and stared at the [Sage's Protection] item for a long, long time.

Half an hour later, Hongying returned, grumbling. She had just gone after the mysterious man but lost him. After cursing for a while, she saw that only Jiang Shiyuan and Si Xiaonan were left in the car and asked in confusion, "Where is Qiye?"

Si Xiaonan shook her head. "I don't know. You just went to chase that mysterious person not long ago, and Qi Ye also ran away."

"Qi Ye just told me he has something to do and asked us to leave first. He'll be back soon," Jiang Shiyuan said, waving her phone.

"Alright then." Hongying got into the car and started the engine.

Jiang Shiyuan pursed her lips. She unlocked her phone, but the chat window with Lin Qiye was blank.

The three returned to the Peace Agency, and Jiang Shiyuan helped carry the groceries from the car to the kitchen. Chen Muye was already preparing to cook.

"Sister Xiaonan, let me help you." Chen Muyi was in charge of cooking in the kitchen, and Si Xiaonan was helping him. But with so many dishes, just preparing the ingredients was a huge undertaking, so Jiang Shiyuan rolled up her sleeves and got to work.

After two hours of busy work, Chen Muyi finally finished cooking all the dishes.

Jiang Shiyuan rubbed her bent back. Cooking really is not an easy task. After being in the kitchen for so long, she felt that she was full of the smell of cooking oil. If she was like this while she was preparing the ingredients, then Chen Muyi must be even more exhausted.

One by one, dishes exuding delicious aromas were served. After all the dishes were served, Lin Qiye arrived late.

"Seven Nights, you've come back just in time." Hongying placed the last dish on the table, her mouth watering.

Jiang Shiyuan helped Si Xiaonan set out the bowls and chopsticks, her eyes shining as she looked at the braised prawns on the table. The palm-sized prawns looked glossy and delicious. She had just been worried that she wouldn't have much of an appetite for dinner, but now she realized she was probably overthinking it; she was really craving them.

Once everyone had arrived, the nine people sat down together.

Chen Muye, Hongying, Si Xiaonan, Leng Xuan, Wu Xiangnan, Zhao Kongcheng, Wen Qimo, Lin Qiye, Jiang Shiyuan.

Chen Muyi raised his glass, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, and slowly said, "A lot has happened this past year..."

Jiang Shiyuan looked at Zhao Kongcheng, a smile appearing on her face.

Chen Muye continued, "The addition of Qiye and Shiyuan has brought us much joy. Mountains and seas will eventually meet again, and storms will eventually come to an end. I hope that next year on this day, we can all reunite."

"Everyone!"

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone stood up, and the clinking of glasses created a joyful atmosphere. Jiang Shiyuan, with a bright smile on his face, raised his glass and shouted, "Happy New Year!"
