Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Like Ye Nanshen, Rong Qi was also preparing for her meeting with the Seven Sinisters scheduled for the next day. Instead of returning to Clearcreek Mansion, she went to Serene Garden. When she arrived, someone was already waiting for her.

The person inside turned around when he heard footsteps and said, “Long time no see, boss.”

Shangguan Ze, holding a glass of red wine, stood in a high-rise room in Serene Garden, gazing at the distant view. He said, “No wonder you refuse to return to Merica. It’s so peaceful here!”

Rong Qi entered and sat down on the sofa without a word.

Shangguan Ze put down his wine and pulled out a pack of cigarettes, shaking one out to light it.

Rong Qi frowned, “Put it out. You’re not allowed to smoke any more.”

Shangguan Ze was puzzled, “You never used to mind my smoking.”

Pouring herself a cup of hot water, Rong Qi replied, “If you smoke, I won’t hesitate to hit you.”

Silently, Shangguan Ze put the cigarette back and tossed the pack on the table.

“Let me meet with the Seven Sinisters tomorrow. You can control things from behind the scenes as usual. They’re notoriously ruthless; it’ll be a tough fight.” Shangguan Ze looked at Rong Qi and spoke.

Rong Qi replied softly, “No matter how tough, I’ve survived before. The Seven Sinisters isn’t easy to fool. I’ll go in person.”

From their past encounters, it was evident this adversary was stronger than any they’d faced before.

“Sevenfold Venture Group has to return to the country eventually. The only way to avoid more trouble later is to subdue them once and for all,” said Rong Qi.

“And if the Seven Sinisters recognize you? You’re still on their hit list, worth a billion dollars!” Shangguan Ze warned.

The situation was absurd. Years ago, Rong Qi had inadvertently exposed herself on a mission to save a comrade. The enemy, determined for revenge, went to the Seven Sinisters to hire assassins.

Rong Qi had been unchallenged in Merica until she fell into the hands of the Seven Sinisters twice, both times nearly fatal. That was her only failure in life. And now, ironically, she was facing the Seven Sinisters again. She couldn’t afford to make the same mistake twice.

Taking a deep breath, Rong Qi said, “If I can be easily recognized, then what have I been doing all these years? Since they want to meet, let’s go. ‘Know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be defeated.’ We’ll settle new and old scores together.”

Shangguan Ze, knowing he couldn’t dissuade Rong Qi, said, “I’ve prepared the manpower, mobilizing as many as we can. S, be extremely careful.” “Understood,” Rong Qi replied, her expression grave.

The meeting with the Seven Sinisters was set at a dock.

The next day, Rong Qi woke up early, while Ye Nanshen was still asleep. As she moved, he also opened his eyes.

Rong Qi told Ye Nanshen, “Yunzhou said he’s taking me to a dock to see some diamonds. I might return late today.”

Ye Nanshen, somewhat preoccupied, nodded, “Alright. I have to go to a dock myself. Little Qi, avoid dock number one today; there are inspections.”

“Okay,” Rong Qi agreed.

That was exactly what Rong Qi wanted to warn Ye Nanshen about. His influence was widespread, and it was normal for him to notice her and Shangguan Ze’s movements against the Seven Sinisters.

Rong Qi didn’t give it much thought. She didn’t want to involve Ye Nanshen in these matters. She had always handled things on her own. Telling him would only cause unnecessary worry and he was already tired enough..
