Both chief detective and Tao Zhuo were extremely shocked that Yu Shijin returned so early.
Especially since even under the dim light, they could see the dark circles under his eyes and the tired air he gave off.
He probably hadn’t slept much recently.
His black outfit fluttered gently with the wind.
The helicopter’s motor sounds failed to cover his deep voice.
“I don’t wish to repeat myself.” Yu Shijin frowned, the chilliness enshrouding him turning even more intense.
Tao Zhuo was petrified by his malevolent air. She took an involuntary step backwards.
As conceited as she was, she knew that she was way beneath Yu Shijin.
“It’s… Yu… Old Mr. Yu…” She stuttered.
Yu Shijin seemed to have predicted her answer.
He didn’t seem surprised at all.
He remained cool and collected as always.
Tao Zhuo couldn’t help taking a deep breath as she observed his manner. “Boss Yu, please back off. Nothing good will come of you going against your destiny. If you continue like this, you will also…”
“I don’t need you to meddle with my affairs.” Yu Shijin snorted. He glanced at Tao Zhuo, his eyes full of a murderous light. “Since your master is someone from Unknown Island, I will let you off this time.”
He waved and had someone drag Tao Zhuo onto the helicopter.
After they left, he lit a cigarette and leaned against the army-green vehicle.
With his other hand, he dialled a number on his cell phone.
After connecting, he said calmly, “You know very well the reason why I didn’t just destroy the International Battlefield previously. If you meddle in my affairs again, it means you are looking to start a war. In that case, I will be glad to fight you to the very end.”
He hung up but didn’t leave immediately.
Instead, he continued leaning against the car until he finished his cigarette.
“Chief detective, pass on the message.” He flicked the ash off his cigarette. “Have everyone quickly settle their own affairs. In half a month, you are all to come with me to the International Association.”
Startled, the chief detective looked up at Yu Shijin in a daze.
In their eyes, Yu Shijin had always been a very detached person who never hankered after fame or wealth.
His indifference to everything was to the extreme.
The only exception was that battle several months ago at the International Battlefield.
They had even discussed before that placing Master Yu in Area One of Country Hua was a waste of talent.
They never expected that Yu Shijin would really go to the International Association.
More importantly, he was even going to bring them along.
Yu Shijin knew what he was thinking.
But he didn’t explain.
He already missed the first opportunity. There was no way he would miss the second one.
Since he was already facing off against the rest of the world, he might as well start right at the top.
To go and recreate the rules.
He lowered his eyes, his handsome face a chilly mask.
The army-green car steered slowly toward the villa.
Yu Shijin sat in the driver’s seat. The villa lights were lit and shone through the glass windows.
He slowly lifted his gaze toward a certain room on the second floor.
His ice-cold heart gradually warmed.
After a second, he finally opened the car door and entered the villa, once again triggering the enthusiastic welcome of Uncle Chen and the servants.
Su Huiqing was not disturbed by Yu Shijin’s return at all.
Su Huiqing went downstairs the next morning, to see that tall, erect figure sitting on the sofa and flipping through the newspapers.
His usual cold aura was dispersed by the warm morning sunlight.
But he remained full of a distinguished nobility.
“Back so soon?” She leaned against the table lazily as she sipped on her milk.
One hand was casually fiddling with the zipper of her jacket.
Yu Shijin put down his newspapers and glanced at Su Huiqing. He said in a low voice, “In future, if you encounter people like that Tao Zhuo again, just hand the matter over to me.”
Su Huiqing thought about it for a long while before understanding his meaning.
She threw the milk carton away and replied placidly, “It’s no big deal.”
She had already resolved it.
Yu Shijin kept silent.
How should he put it?
He could not bear the thought of anyone crossing her.
Su Huiqing didn’t notice his expression. Her cell phone was ringing.
She accepted the call.
The caller said something, and her expression instantly changed. “What?!”
