Bai Qing's tone was not very good: "Listen to me, turn back immediately."
But the elevator had already arrived, and I saw Shen Jing walk up to the VIP Suite door.
The door opened by itself.
A hand as white as jade reached out and hooked around Shen Jing's neck.
On that hand was Shen Jing's Wolf Head Ring.
I had asked him some time ago, "If you don't like Bai Man, why did you give her the ring?"
Shen Jing pinched my cheek and said, "Jealous?"
"She took that thing herself."
"I, Shen Jing, wouldn't rely on a ring to prove my status. If she took it, I wouldn't bother to get it back."
Is that really the case?
Then why are you in a hotel room tonight, having a secret meeting with Bai Man?
Bai Qing had my perspective.
"...Are you okay, Manman?"
I shook my head.
She said, "This afternoon we had someone follow Bai Man and found out she went to the hotel, dressed to the nines... turns out she was meeting Shen Jing."
Shen Jing went inside, and I waited for a full hour without him coming out.
Suddenly, I realized.
Why was I waiting for him?
Was it to confront him?
I asked him if he did something with Bai Man inside.
Am I still harboring feelings for him?
How shameful.
Realizing this, I ran out of the hotel without looking back.
When I returned home, it was almost midnight when he came back, covered in dew.
He took off his clothes and got into bed, wrapping his arms around me from behind.
He smelled like he had just showered.
A wave of nausea washed over me.
Shen Jing held me for a while, but soon I felt something was off.
He kissed my back gently, and I wanted to break free.
But his arms tightened around me like a hot iron.
His breath was unsteady as he said, "I heard you went out driving?"
Suddenly feeling self-destructive, I bit down hard on his arm.
He still wouldn't let go, silently staring at me.
Until my mouth was filled with the taste of rust.
I said, "Yeah! I went out. I went to find Pretty Boy!
"What about it? Go ahead and kill me!"
He laughed, his jaw muscles tensing. "Bai Man."
"Don't provoke me."
"If you really dare to go looking for them, I'll have someone bring back their hands and feet."
My expression changed instantly.
He lowered his head and kissed me again.
The strength in his hands suddenly relaxed as he said, "I really can't do anything about you."
"It's chaotic outside. Remember to take someone with you if you go out at night."
Another half month passed.
Shen Jing kept me company, even bringing me along for business meetings.
But the longer I stayed with him, the more my guilt accumulated, reaching a boiling point.
Sometimes, Shen Jing would hand me a lot of documents to sign.
Looking at the complicated German text, I felt a bit speechless: "What? At this time, you still want to sell my organs?"
Shen Jing laughed, his shoulders shaking.
"Just sign it; it's your gift."
A house?
It didn't matter whether I signed or not; even if it meant selling my organs, I didn't care anymore.
I had already prepared myself for mutual destruction with Shen Jing.
Shen Jing was heavily restrained by me.
Bai Qing and Fu Jing's operation went smoothly, with a complete chain of evidence, witnesses, and physical proof.
The comic was also finished.
We were just waiting for Shen Jing's final drug deal.
Operation Net Closing is about to begin.
On the day of departure, my heart was racing.
I informed Bai Qing and the others about the time, location, number of people involved, and how many weapons we brought.
Just before getting into the car, Shen Jing suddenly said, "You don't have to go today. Stay home and wait for me. I'll be back soon."
I felt a surge of anxiety. Did he sense something?
No, I had to go.
I insisted, "I want to go."
He raised an eyebrow. To dispel his doubts, I added, "Who knows if you're going to find another dog?"
Shen Jing turned around, crossed his arms, leaned against the car door, and smiled casually.
In the end, he relented and looked at me deeply. "Fine. Just don't run around later."
According to the comic's setting.
The trading location was set on a cliff by the sea.
The wind was strong. Shen Jing bent down to take off his coat and put it on me, adjusting the collar.
"Be good and stay in the car. Don't come out."
Perhaps feeling that his earlier words weren't harsh enough, he turned back and threatened, "If you dare come out, I'll deal with you tonight."
The car door closed.
I couldn't help but chuckle softly; he turned away.
Tears streamed down my face from laughter as I heavily slapped my hand against my palm—it was cold.
Shen Jing is going to die today.
There is no doubt about it.
The two parties were halfway through the transaction.
Suddenly, a large group of people appeared.
In the front car sits Bai Man.
I cannot draw Bai Man's ending; I don't know if it's because she is a character beyond the confines of the comic's setting.
Bai Qing told me they have also found evidence of Bai Man's crimes, and she will likely be caught around the same time as Shen Jing.
Seeing Bai Man appear, I had a vague sense of foreboding.
She rolled down the car window, and I saw her face was as pale as paper, looking very weak.
I sat in the car while Bai Man ordered someone to go down and say something to Shen Jing, but I couldn't hear it.
At that moment, Bai Man glared at me fiercely.
The resentment and anger in her eyes seemed like they could burst forth.
Just as Shen Jing lowered his head to light a cigarette.
Bai Man suddenly revved the engine and crashed toward my car like a madwoman.
Outside the car was a sheer cliff.
I even clearly saw her lips move: "Die, you!!"
In a split second, I instinctively prepared to pull the door open and jump out of the car.
Two gunshots rang out.
Bai Man's car was almost touching mine, just a hair's breadth away.
Her car came to a stop.
Blood flowed from the wound on her temple.
Her eyes widened with resentment, seemingly expressing her unwillingness to accept the situation.
Shen Jing stood several meters away, holding a gun.
Two shots, both aimed at the head.
I looked at him.
His indifferent gaze softened with concern when he saw me.
Shen Jing walked towards me.
At that moment, the sound of police sirens filled the air from all directions.
Everyone was surrounded by the police.
These people were desperate criminals who would not easily surrender.
The gunfight was intense, with blood and flesh flying everywhere.
Bai Man shouted into my earpiece, "Get out of the car now! Run! Manman! Hurry!"
I took off the earpiece and threw it away.
I'm sorry, but I had actually set up a Hidden Ending.
It was to perish together with Shen Jing.
I shouted to Shen Jing, "Get in the car!"
I couldn't let Shen Jing stay behind.
His marksmanship and knife skills were exceptional; even in a one-on-one confrontation, many police officers would fall to his gun.
Shen Jing quickly got into the car.
He still had the mood to joke around, biting on a cigarette with a rogue demeanor.
"I thought you would leave me behind just now."
I pressed the accelerator to the floor, and the car rushed down the narrow path almost recklessly.
The police car behind us was in hot pursuit.
Shen Jing raised his hand to draw his gun.
I grabbed his hand and said, "Don't shoot, Mirror Treasure."
He was taken aback.
Then he tossed the gun aside. "You haven't called me that in a long time."
I smiled slightly. "You used to hate that name."
Shen Jing smirked. "Yeah, I'm a big man after all.
"A name like that is too sissy for me."
"What about now?" I suddenly slowed down the car.
Shen Jing: "I like it a lot."
The sun had risen, where it met the horizon was hope.
Below was an unfamiliar road.
Shen Jing wasn't really surprised.
I deliberately chose another route, heading towards the edge of the cliff.
I deceived him just to prevent him from hurting others again.
Shen Jing calmed down.
I said, "Let's die together, Shen Jing."
Shen Jing replied, "Okay."
I continued, "I came back this time with the sole purpose of killing you, nothing else."
Shen Jing responded, "Mm, understood."
He turned his face and gently wiped my tears.
His fingertips were cool, like feathers.
"What's there to cry about?"
I said, "I can't go home anymore, Shen Jing, do you know? Bai Man destroyed my comic Manuscript...
"You even drained my blood; I can't go home anymore, never again."
I was filled with guilt; I indulged your evil deeds.
Dying with you would be my atonement for this world.
