nRelying on her petite body, Wu Mei dodged the other party’s shots. After firing a few shots, she temporarily stopped behind the wine cabinet in the banquet hall to rest.

n

n“Come out! You’re the only one here. Do you think you can defeat us?” The leader of the assassins said in a clear voice.

n

nWu Mei looked at the blood flowing out of her arm and picked up two pieces of fabric from the ground. She wrapped them around her arm and her breathing gradually recovered.

n

n“Hey, if you want to kill someone here, you have to ask me for permission!”

n

nOut of the corner of her eye, Wu Mei saw the assassin who was about to find her location. She quickly rushed out and grabbed his neck, making him suffocate and faint. She used him as a shield and snatched his gun.

n

nShe did this within two to three seconds, catching the assassin leader off guard and he no longer dared to underestimate her.

n

n“You don’t want him to die, do you?” The leader threatened.

n

nThe high-ranking official from the neighboring country cried out, “Help!”

n

nThere were five assassins left.

n

n

n

nThe burly man beside the leader of the assassins was the strongest. He needed to be dealt with last!

n

nWu Mei analyzed the situation and said with a smile, “You guys haven’t killed him yet, so you probably want to keep him alive! Sorry, but you can’t take him away!”

n

nBang!

n

nBang!

n

nWu Mei pushed out the hostage in her hand and accurately fired two shots at the assassin!

n

nAt the same time, the hostage in her hand was also shot into a beehive. The situation was extremely dangerous.

n

nUsing the terrain as cover, Wu Mei fired three shots from three different angles. The assassins around the leader all collapsed onto the ground, leaving only the burly man.

n

n“Who on earth are you?!” The leader sounded a little panicked. He did not expect such an expert to be here. They had thought that they were just ordinary special agents.

n

nWu Mei sneered and did not reply. Just as she was about to shoot the burly man, she suddenly heard a gunshot.

n

nShe instinctively turned around and saw that Li Nanchen was holding a gun up. His expression was cold as he aimed it behind her.

n

nBehind Wu Mei, the assassin who had gone around and approached her, collapsed onto the ground and spat out blood.

n

nHe seemed to be a ninja, His breathing was concealed and his footsteps were so light that Wu Mei nearly fell for his trap.

n

nLi Nanchen and Wu Mei tacitly exchanged glances.

n

nWith their backs pressed against each other, they pulled out their guns to defend themselves.

n

nThe assassin leader wanted to take the high-ranking official hostage and leave, but Wu Mei fired using a small handheld gun, piercing the leader’s wrist that was holding the gun.

n

nThe assassin leader knelt on one knee and the high-ranking official seized the opportunity to escape.

n

nWu Mei focused her attention and fired another shot. The burly man fell to the ground. She did not even give the leader a moment to catch his breath before she pushed the high-ranking official from the neighboring country to safety and held the leader onto the ground!

n

nThis farce had finally come to an end…

n

nWhen Li Nanchen saw Wu Mei’s decisive actions, he could not help but be stunned. He thought of that flamboyant and charming figure that he had met at the country’s border.

n

nThe high-ranking officials from the Ministry of Defense looked at Wu Mei with admiration in their eyes. They took the initiative to approach her.

n

n“You guys bring him back first.”

n

nAfter the high-ranking official from the neighboring country left, he looked at Wu Mei again and asked, “Madam, you’ve really been a great help to us. If you need anything or want any reward, feel free to ask. We will apply for it for you.”

n

nWu Mei revealed a curious expression and said, “Actually, I’ve always wanted to be a special agent. Do you think I have a chance to be a female agent?”

n

nShe pretended to be innocent.

n

nThe high-ranking officials from the Ministry of Defense exchanged glances with each other.

n

nWu Mei knew that they had doubts in their hearts. She raised her hand and pointed at Li Nanchen as she spoke affectionately, “Because my husband used to like a female special agent, I also hope to gain his favor, so I thought that if I have the chance, I could do the same job.”

n

nPerhaps it was because Wu Mei’s acting skills were too good, but when Li Nanchen heard this, he froze and held his breath.

n

n“Since you are President Li’s wife, we are happy to fulfill your wish. In half a month’s time, the selection for the new agents recruited by the Ministry of Defense will begin.”

n

n“You can take our recommendation letter and participate with them. But whether or not you succeed will depend on your abilities!”

n

nThe high-ranking official from the Ministry of Defence immediately agreed. On the other hand, Wu Mei was in a good mood after receiving this privilege pass.

n

nWalking out of the banquet hall, Li Nanchen suddenly grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the wall. He lowered his head and used his deep eyes to try and look into her heart.

n

n

n

n“Do you really want to be a special agent because of me?”

n

nWhen Li Nanchen said this, he was slightly expectant and nervous.

n

nWu Mei looked up at him and suddenly smiled. She raised her eyebrows and patted his chin gently.

n

n“Are you kidding me? Of course I was lying to them!”

n

n“How can I get the pass if I don’t make up a story that’s miserable yet romantic?”

n

nWu Mei waved the recommendation letter in her hand. However, Li Nanchen’s heart sank and he let her go.

n

nBuzz…

n

nWu Mei had taken two steps forward when she heard the phone vibrate. She turned around and saw Li Nanchen’s face fall.

n

nOn the other end of the line, the doctor said coldly, “Mr Li, you need to come to the hospital as soon as possible. Old Master Li is critically ill and vomiting blood. His condition is serious… I’m afraid he won’t be able to make it.”
