Chapter 10, The Cost of Exchange

I only know you, yet I do not know what you know

As she spoke, Ye Xing placed the wine stopper into Su Zhi's embrace.

Ye Xing held a bottle of premium wine and smiled at him. However, Su Zhi Zhen seemed to not recognize him at all and turned to walk into the building.

What is this

You really like this thing

... ...

Su Zhizhen's mind conjured a thought that even he himself dared not confirm, yet the smile on Ye Xing's face seemed to be aiding him in affirming this thought

I will give you a gift

A few days ago, I mentioned that I would provide you with the answer. Now, I am here to confirm the answer

The silent night stars watched as he took the umbrella, feeling an indescribable sensation within. He took a deep breath, suppressing this inexplicable emotion. He put on his usual smile in front of the first snow.

It is I, what is the matter

Hello, is this the young master

Congratulations, Mr. Su Zhizhen, on your daughter's successful admission to Freie Universität Berlin

As he spoke, Yexing raised his hand into the air, as if recalling something, and hurriedly said

Have you been waiting for me all along

Ye Xing cautiously asked, while Chu Xue focused intently and carefully assembled the last component of the gun, nodding slightly

Please note, do not touch the disc in the lower left corner. That will be all, I will return earlier

Leaning against the wall, Ye Xing watched as the rain outside grew heavier, unable to suppress a bitter smile. The joy of successfully completing the mission had vanished in an instant. For Ye Xing, what mattered was enjoying the process, not the outcome. Just as he was contemplating whether to call home to inform Chu Xue that he would be returning later, he suddenly felt a tug at the corner of his clothing. When he turned around, he found Chu Xue quietly standing beside him, holding an umbrella in her hand.

Su Zhizhen let out a long sigh, leaning against the wall, his head bowed as he gazed at the fine wine that Night Star had given him.

Yexing shook the pen in his hand at him

"Talking to oneself is not harmful to anyone."

Then, let us go home

Life is no different from when I was alone; this is how Ye Xing feels. Even though there is now another person, his own life has not changed at all. Chu Xue remains as silent and reticent as ever, rarely speaking, which does not make for a good conversational partner for Ye Xing. However, during missions, Ye Xing feels a bit more relaxed than usual. As a partner, no one is more suited for this role than Chu Xue. Yet, in this regard, Ye Xing feels that something is slightly off. Indeed, life does not interfere with him, but in battle, there are things that can assist him.

You should know, Mr. Su

Putting down the phone, Yexing walked to the door and picked up his coat. At that moment, he glanced at Chuxue, who was peering in from the living room.

You already know so much, what else do you need me to do

The smile on Ye Xing's face remained unchanged, but it was not a smile masked by pretense; he was genuinely very happy. For him, each act of persuasion was a game, a matter of how to grasp the weaknesses of others, break through their psychological defenses, and ultimately score. It was quite an interesting endeavor. Therefore, regardless of how events unfolded, he always found joy in the process

The words of Ye Xing caused Su Zhi to pause his steps as he was about to enter the building. He then turned around and asked in a slightly trembling voice: "How do you know about this?"

It is indeed troublesome

Well

I have already given you my answer, so what is your answer

Understood

Su Zhizhen felt completely drained of strength. He swayed as he walked to Ye Xing's side, sighing.

Su Zhizhen was very happy today. Before leaving work, he received a call from his daughter. He learned that her application to study at a university in Germany and their couple's immigration and library approval had been granted, and now it was just a matter of preparing for the journey. Thinking of this, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face, as this money was, in a sense, being prepared for his daughter. Next, he pondered what kind of excuse he could use to explain this matter to his family. To enable himself to settle there easily in three years, he had always wanted to send his daughter there first. However, the strict review system and his superficial identity had restrained him from spending freely to facilitate connections, causing his wishes to fail several times. This time, he finally succeeded, and it was evident that he could not suppress his joy and happiness. Although the words of that mysterious young man from a few days ago had troubled him for a long time, at least for now, he could temporarily set aside his worries and enjoy the feelings of success and joy.

It is evident that my client considers these to be worthwhile. That is why you have received this answer

You don't have to follow me today; take some time to relax and unwind. Watch some television; there are cartoons in the cabinet

Is it difficult... Could it be that...

It is still such a rigid response

As he turned the corner and arrived at the residential building where he lived, a figure caught his eye, causing his smile to instantly freeze.

The ... ... debris.

The ringing of the phone interrupted Yexing's thoughts. He walked out of the living room and went to the study to answer the call

I knew that if it were entrusted to you, there would definitely be no issues

That matter has been taken care of. Speaking of which, that woman is indeed a cunning character

... ... ''

However, for you to ask me to do this already constitutes a betrayal of the organization

The gaze of the night star fell upon the clothes that had long been soaked by the first snow, and could not help but ask. The first snow said nothing, merely nodded, and then handed him the umbrella in hand.

Night Star sighed inwardly, realizing that she was clearly a lovely girl. How wonderful it would be if she could send me off with a smile. ... Any man would feel very happy, I said ... . ... Forget it, it is not good to impose such demands. Casting aside these chaotic thoughts, Night Star scratched her head, waved goodbye to the first snow behind her, and then stepped out of the house

Chuxue sat in the living room, carefully disassembling the firearm in her hands. She would take it apart and put it back together. This action continued on, while Yexing sat beside her, saying nothing, merely observing what she was doing. For Yexing, a gun was merely a tool for killing. However, looking at Chuxue, it seemed to be more than that. Perhaps it was Yexing's illusion, but Chuxue, while disassembling the firearm, appeared to be very happy.

We only ask you to provide information to hetushu.com, and we do not require you to betray the organization

Saying this, Ye Xing took a fountain pen out of his pocket and handed it over

... ... ''

On the other end of the phone was the familiar, hearty voice of the old man. Every time I heard this voice, Ye Xing couldn't help but smile, as if she were once again witnessing the scene of the plump uncle patting his belly and calling out for his buns. The old man was originally a soldier; although Ye Xing did not know what he had done in the past, judging by his current attitude of complete hedonism, he must have encountered quite a few things.

Thinking of this, he looked towards Chuxue again. Yexing had encountered many women and had embraced quite a few. However, he had never met anyone like Chuxue before. What exactly was Chuxue thinking? What did she want to do? Yexing found it completely impossible to understand.

However, in response to Su Zhizhen's inquiry, Ye Xing still wore that indifferent smile.

The remuneration remains the same, then farewell, young master

Only weapons would be like that

Ding ding ding ... ...

Su Zhizhen glanced at the pen in his hand, then looked up at the sky. At this moment, the clouds were thick and dark, indicating that it might rain at any time. Ultimately, he extended his hand

"This special communication device, all you need to do is remove the pen cap, and everything you say will be transmitted to my client"

When the stars departed that night, the rain finally began to fall
