A middle-aged man in his thirties muttered as he observed Tang Yao’s speech from the sa rooftop. It seed like he was enjoying himself so much that Leo noticed his presence.
"You can’t fool my senses, City Lord." He chuckled, secretly turning off the radar that showed soone’s heat signature in his smart lenses. "Am I ddling in your plan by saving you that ti? If so, I apologize."
"No, that’s not it. I was also surprised and couldn’t react properly. I never expected a mber of Nokrim to attack . You did well at saving , Leo from Hallowed Insects." Qin Weiqi shook his head in denial as he turned around and faced Leo. "You have my gratitude."
"It’s nothing. But if you need our service, do contact in Chengdu. Or maybe, just tell directly right now. We’re on the side of the highest bidder." Leo smiled faintly while bowing slightly toward him.
"That’s an interesting way to live. But are you not afraid of making enemies? The way you said it, you would betray your forr employee if there is soone bidding higher than him."
Leo imdiately shook his head.
"Oh, no. You misunderstand . When the job is ongoing, I won’t change sides. Because our job usually requires us to kill enemies, changing sides after the job starts won’t change anything. I can just take what the other party offered from their dead bodies."
Qin Weiqi fell silent for a while after hearing his answer before chuckling softly. He smiled warmly and nodded his head in acknowledgnt, "I understand. In short you will side with the highest bidder before the job starts."
"Yes. And right now, our job hasn’t started yet. We were just offered 7,500 Golds and 150 KG Star tal as well as a right to choose 3 loots I want. Ah, please forget it. I made a slip of tongue."
The City Lord laughed hearing Leo’s explanation. It seed like he thought it was amusing because of how he looked when he laughed.
"Don’t worry. The wind is too strong for to hear anything."
"Indeed, the wind is too strong. I am afraid a fire will start if nothing is done."
Both of them looked down as Tang Yao finished his speech. Everyone raised their fist high as they cheered in excitent. It seed like they were eager to fight against the bandit group as they cheered loudly.
"Ti to go ho." Leo said as he stood up. "I need to prepare for work later tonight. Keep yourself safe, City Lord."
"Be careful on your journey back." The City Lord nodded his head slightly and looked at Leo. "Ah, by the way..."
"Yes?"
"How does 10,000 Golds and 200 KG Star tal sound?"
Grinning, Leo answered the question, "It sounds like a dream."
And with that, he left the City Lord alone on the rooftop.
Qin Weiqi looked at the distance where Tang Yao and Tang Soso were leaving with all Tang Clan’s guards following them in awe. The cheers of the crowd echoed in his ear as he shook his head in disbelief.
"He went too far." He muttered with a hint of anger in his tone. "Attacking Qin City during a tournant just to have a reason to eradicate the bandit group... Who do they think I am?! I won’t let them do as they please."
Qin Weiqi turned around and walked away from the roof at a quick pace. His robes fluttered in the wind as he rushed into the direction of his City Lord Manor.
***
Tang Yao walked down the manor with Tang Soso. They entered a room and asked the people outside to empty the area.
Sitting side by side, Tang Yao pulled her into his embrace and hugged her tightly while slling her scent deeply.
"D-Don’t do this." Tang Soso glared at him and struggled to break free from his embrace while blushing in embarrassnt. She didn’t want anyone to see her in this kind of situation.
"Who’s seeing us? It’s only the two of us here." He answered her in a teasing tone with a smile on his face, "Oh... Stop struggling or I will kiss you."
"W-What?" She asked with wide eyes, "We’re brother and sister!"
"That’s what people thought. Didn’t I tell you, Soso? There’s nothing wrong if we sleep with each other." He answered slowly, using his soft and calm tone. "We aren’t related by blood anyway. Not a single drop of Tang’s blood flowed in my body."
"It doesn’t matter! You’re my brother!" She looked at him angrily before glaring at him, "Release ! You’re disgusting."
Tang Yao stayed quiet and just smiled coldly instead of saying anything else.
"Even though you scread my na and moaned loudly that night? That’s a sha." He suddenly whispered into her ears while laughing softly.
"Shut up!" Tang Soso blushed furiously as she scread in rage while rembering what happened that night and a few nights after between them.
She couldn’t help but bite her lips as she recalled that mont when she lost herself because of a drug. The second Young Master of Tang Clan used it to drug her and assaulted her, causing her to moan and scream his na multiple tis that night.
It was a humiliation that she couldn’t forget ever since that day happened. And her body also couldn’t forget the training that happened afterward, causing her to be stuck with his ’fake’ brother everywhere.
"Just... Don’t do it again. I hate you!"
"Yes, yes... My beautiful and adorable sister. You want more."
With that, the man finally released her and took out a letter from his sleeves.
"Let’s talk about the other things then. I already promised you a good position when I beco the Tang Clan’s Head. Right now, I need you to do sothing."
"What is it?" She asked suspiciously while leaning backward.
"You know I love you." He ignored her cold stare and smiled gently instead while caressing her hair gently, "But first, I need you to seduce that rcenary called Leo."
Hearing those words, her anger flared up once again as she couldn’t help but raise her voice while glaring at him. "Are you insane?! Why should I seduce soone?"
Tang Yao only laughed at her.
"Foolish question. From what I heard, he managed to fight against Wandering Sword Saint evenly for a few seconds before retreating. Peng Li-Yue’s bodyguard, which I guessed as Leo’s subordinate, took over the fight and won against the fabled Sword Saint. If you manage to seduce him, it will make it easier for to realize my dream. Control him with love, my lovely sister. This is an order."
