Don't I want to Breathe

The next day, at Su City International.

Su Qianmo stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the view of the East Sea. Her curvaceous figure was accentuated by the tight-fitting deep red dress she wore.

Black knee-high stockings clung to her shapely legs, and her petite and adorable feet rested quietly in black high heels.

While her proportions were not as exaggerated as Liu Mingrui's, her figure was equally stunning. Coupled with her aloof temperament, any man would feel a tremor in their heart upon seeing her.

At this moment, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and there was a hint of impatience in her expression.

Earlier that day, she had called Ghost Centipede to inquire about the situation.

Ghost Centipede said he needed to ask around and would call Su Qianmo back.

Su Qianmo had expected Ghost Centipede to return her call quickly, but it had been over two hours, and there was no news from him.

This puzzled Su Qianmo.

Just as she was considering whether to call Ghost Centipede again, his call suddenly came through.

"Hello, Miss Su," Ghost Centipede's tone sounded somewhat panicked. "I'm sorry to say that this matter might have been exposed."

"What?!" Su Qianmo's forehead creased as she asked, "What exactly happened?"

Ghost Centipede pursed his lips and said, "Last night, the three people I sent to Su Hang suddenly lost contact with me."

"However, their car had a tracker, so I sent people to look for them overnight, but we only found the car and no sign of the people."

Su Qianmo's brows tightened, and she said coldly, "I don't care about that. I just want you to get rid of Lin Yu."

"I understand, I understand," Ghost Centipede hesitated for a moment and said, "I just wanted to say that this mission might need to be postponed, and..."

"And what? Just say it," Su Qianmo already had a rough idea of what Ghost Centipede wanted to say.

Ghost Centipede swallowed and said, "And it seems that the target this time might not be so easy to deal with. Fifty thousand won't be enough, I'm afraid..."

Ghost Centipede also felt awkward about the sudden change in price, but the problem was that the three people who had gone to kill Lin Yu had disappeared without a trace.

If they were to continue with the mission, new people would need to be sent, and they would have to be elite.

The price for elite operatives was clearly different from that of rookies.

"No problem, I'll give you two million once the job is done. Is that enough?" Su Qianmo didn't care about the money at all. She was willing to give any amount as long as Lin Yu was eliminated.

"Enough, it's enough," Ghost Centipede's tone suddenly relaxed, and he assured her, "Miss Su, I underestimated the situation this time, but rest assured, I will make Lin Yu disappear within three days!"

"Alright, I appreciate it."

After hanging up the phone, Su Qianmo took a deep breath through her red lips.

She looked determinedly towards the distant mountains.

Lin Yu, I didn't expect you to have some skills, but no matter what, I will solve you for Chen'an.

Only by getting rid of you, Chen'an and I can be together in peace!

...

The Gu family.

Tang Yunjin, who had just finished today's acupuncture practice, walked out of Chen'an's room in disarray, accompanied by Bai Yutian.

After several days of non-stop practice, Chen'an's medical skills had not made a great leap, but he had become quite proficient.

At the very least, he now had a systematic study of the acupoints on the human body and knew which symptoms each acupoint corresponded to.

However, these past few days had been tough on Bai Yutian.

Every day, that child was held down by Chen'an Gu and subjected to needle treatment, with silver needles inserted and withdrawn from each acupoint.

In addition, Chen'an Gu had thoroughly examined Bai Yutian's petite and fragrant body during the acupuncture sessions and had even taken note of the number of moles on her body.

Of course, Chen'an Gu was currently wholeheartedly focused on practicing medicine and had no time to think about anything inappropriate.

But the servants of the Gu family were oblivious to this fact.

For the past few days, Chen'an Gu would bring Tang Yunjin and Bai Yutian into his room, and sounds that were beyond description would emanate from the room.

It was hard not to misunderstand.

The entire Gu family not only thought that Chen'an Gu's appetite had changed, but they also believed that Chen'an Gu was involved in a love triangle with Tang Yunjin and Bai Yutian.

Even their attitude towards Bai Yutian had changed, and nearly everyone treated her with utmost respect whenever they encountered her.

In their eyes, Bai Yutian was already Chen'an Gu's woman and could potentially become one of the mistresses of the Gu family in the future.

Bai Yutian naturally understood that they had all misunderstood, but she didn't offer any explanations.

Instead, she intentionally said things that were misleading.

In any case, she enjoyed this feeling, being treated as Chen'an Gu's woman.

As the two women left, Chen'an Gu stretched lazily and comfortably.

But at that moment, a sound of a window opening suddenly came, and Chen'an Gu immediately looked towards the window.

The windowsill was wide open, and the curtains swayed with the breeze, making a rustling sound.

However, there was no one to be seen.

"How strange."

Chen'an Gu furrowed his brows and prepared to get up and close the window.

"Are you looking for me?"

Just then, a clear and crisp female voice came from behind Chen'an Gu!

Chen'an Gu was startled, and before he could turn around, he felt the woman behind him embrace him.

Only one person had the ability to stealthily infiltrate his room under the heavy security of the Gu family!

Hoshino Kannon!

Even though Chen'an Gu knew that Hoshino Kannon was highly skilled in assassination techniques, he was still taken aback.

If Hoshino Kannon wanted to make a move, she could easily kill him without saying a word!

"What... What do you want?" Chen'an Gu didn't turn around and asked with a suppressed sense of panic.

"Hehe."

Hoshino Kannon chuckled softly and leaned closer to Chen'an Gu's ear, speaking in a soft voice, "I missed you, so I came to see you."

Feeling the breath in his ear, Chen'an Gu couldn't help but feel a shiver.

Chen'an Gu sat on the edge of the bed, and Hoshino Kannon sat behind him, sitting like a duck, with her back against his back.

The open window continued to let in a gentle breeze, and there was also a faint fragrance intentionally exhaled by Hoshino Kannon near his ear.

The curtains lightly brushed against the desk, and Hoshino Kannon's hand encircled Chen'an Gu's neck, gently resting on his chest.

"Gulp~"

Chen'an Gu swallowed his saliva.

He was uneasy.

Hoshino Kannon was a complete lunatic. She could smile and talk to you one second and snap your neck the next.

So even though Hoshino Kannon didn't make any other moves at this moment, Chen'an Gu was deeply unsettled inside.

"Look at me, is it necessary to look at me like this?" Chen'an Gu said.

"Well, how about this then?"

Hoshino Kannon spoke softly, and then her two beautiful legs, adorned with white lace-trimmed knee-high socks, wrapped around Chen'an Gu's waist from behind.

Chen'an Gu lowered his head and looked at Hoshino Kannon's delicate white silk-clad feet, instantly feeling dry-mouthed and tongue-tied.

"Damn it, referee, she's committing a foul!"

"She's actually wearing my favorite knee-high white socks!"

"Damn it, she's using a love lock on me like the strongest bond in the world. Are you a sloth? Don't I need to breathe?"
