Chapter 15
The cold wind blows through the veil, which is cool and piercing.

The moonlight slipped away in a hurry, and the agile shadow flashed outside the window.

Based on the outline alone, one can vaguely discern the figure of a woman.

In the darkness, a black shadow quietly sneaked into the room.

Nearly.

closer.

Walking to the bed, the black boots stopped, and Qiao Luo looked down at the sleeping woman on the bed, with a mocking smile on the crimson lips exposed under the mask.

She turned her head sideways, and her eyes fell on the incense burner not far away.

The smoky, faint fragrance unknowingly relaxes you.

Qiao Luo walked over slowly, took out a small white porcelain bottle from his pocket, poured out the contents, and the thumb-sized pills lay in the palm of his hand.

She raised her eyebrows, lifted the stove cover, and with a little force on her fingertips, the pills were broken into powder and sprinkled into the incense burner.

The cool wind flowed wantonly, and the flickering lights reflected in Qiao Luo's eyes, and she pursed her lips in satisfaction.

After covering the stove, Qiao Luo walked back to the bed and raised his hand unhurriedly.

With five fingers spread out, they flashed past Liu Yan's face.

A strange fragrance filled the air and drifted with the wind.

After a while, Qiao Luo calmly withdrew his hand, turned and walked towards the French window.

The veil was raised, and the agile figure disappeared outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Under the cover of the moonlight, Qiao Luo grabbed the railing with one hand, jumped forward, and landed firmly with both feet.

Qiao Luo stood up, took out his phone and glanced at it, it was past one o'clock.

The guards of the Long family are too tight, we can't stay here any longer, we have to leave quickly.

She lifted her foot to leave, and her steps were fast and anxious.

You can't get out of the main entrance, you can only climb over the wall in the backyard.

Through the forest and through the winding corridor, Qiao Luo became impatient.

It's nothing to do with building such a big house. Walking around is like navigating a maze, and my legs are sore.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced over the gazebo inadvertently, her eyes froze, and she dodged to hide in the grass beside her.

Oops.

Long Beijue didn't go to bed in the middle of the night, what was he doing in the gazebo?
The black shadow flashed past behind him, and the tip of Long Beijue's eyes was raised, revealing a bit of evil spirit.

Interesting.

Playing with the teacup with his big hands as cold as porcelain jade, he took a sip of the tea.

"It's all here, why don't you come out for a cup of tea?"

The magnetic voice suddenly sounded, and it was even deeper in the night.

Qiao Luo was hiding in the grass with his body curled up like a cat, and he froze when he heard his words.

Her eyes flickered slightly, she hesitated for a few seconds, she stood up slowly, walked out across the grass.

The slender back fell into the bottom of the eyes, seeing the tea tray on the table, the corners of Qiao Luo's lips trembled slightly.

Don't sleep here and drink tea in the middle of the night?
What a coincidence that she came tonight, and she was bumped into by him.

The footsteps kept approaching, Long Beijue took a new teacup, lifted the teapot and added a cup of tea.

From the corner of his eye, he saw that the woman's face was wearing a black mask, and the light reflected it, giving off a metallic luster.

"You don't look like you're here for a walk." He looked at the black clothes on her body, and a teasing smile curled up on the corner of his lips.

"Could it be that they came to assassinate me?"

Qiao Luo looked down at him with astonishment in his eyes.

It was rumored that the young master of the Long family, Long Beijue, had a weird temper, and he was still in the mood to joke, which was somewhat different from the rumors.

Long Beijue put down his teacup, raised his head, and his insightful eyes made people feel uneasy.

Qiao Luo turned his head and looked away, his voice was slightly cool, "Young Master Long is still leisurely drinking tea and enjoying the scenery in the middle of the night, which is rare."

Long Beijue curled his thin lips lightly, and teased, "Boss Qiao can come to Long's house for a walk in the middle of the night, isn't it rare?"

Qiao Luo pursed his lips, his eyes narrowed, and he recognized her.

The air stagnates, and time suddenly stands still.

After a while, Qiao Luo raised his hand and took off the mask on his face.

The cold wind blew through the broken hair on her cheeks, and her delicate black eyes shone with sparkling light.

It's hard to imagine that there are such a pair of beautiful eyes on this plain face.

It's not quite right.

Long Beijue looked away, "Sit down and have a cup of tea?"

Qiao Luo looked down at the teacup in front of her, unable to figure out Long Beijue's thoughts

Seeing that she was still standing, Long Beijue joked, "Worried about me poisoning the tea?"

"How about I help you taste it?" He said, reaching out his hand, as if to pick up her cup.

"No need." Qiao Luo didn't hesitate, and sat down on the stone bench opposite him.

She picked up the teacup and took a sip in front of him.

She put down her teacup, and stared at him with piercing eyes, "How did Young Master Long know it was me?"

I'm afraid he was waiting here the moment she sneaked into Long's house, but she has a doubt, how did he recognize her?
Long Beijue didn't go around in circles, "I heard that Boss Qiao's store was smashed."

Qiao Luo's eyes were slightly cold, "Young Master Long is well informed, Young Master Long is waiting here, presumably it's not to have a cup of tea with me, right?"

"My young master is just curious about where Boss Qiao got his skills. This is not something an ordinary businessman should have." Long Beijue rested his fingertips on his chin, looking at her leisurely.

It is absolutely impossible for the owner of a small shop to have the guts to confront Liu Yan. No matter how bad Liu Yan is, she still has the protection of the Long family on the surface. Under the eyes of everyone, she has no scruples to offend Liu Yan. Ordinary people will think of the consequences .

Also, the skill she showed when she dealt with the group of young boys at school was obviously not something ordinary people could have.

Qiao Luo said calmly, "It's just a little self-protection ability."

"Self-protection?" Long Beijue chuckled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, "The Long family is heavily guarded, and Boss Qiao can come and go freely. Is this the ability to protect yourself?"

The two tested back and forth, Qiao Luo's eyes dimmed, "It seems that Young Master Long has already guessed my reason for coming."

"How, are you going to catch me?"

Her hand holding the mask tightened slightly, and the back of her hand was swollen with veins.

Meeting her sharp gaze, Long Beijue smiled wickedly, "If I say yes, how sure is Boss Qiao that he can escape?"

Qiao Luo stared at him, "Let's talk about the conditions."

If he wanted to catch her, he would have called for someone to come here, and he wouldn't waste his time here with her.

Long Beijue answered, "I owe you the terms first, and I'll ask you later when I remember."

After finishing speaking, he added, "Don't worry, it won't touch your bottom line."

He had a hunch that this Qiao Luo was not a simple person, and it would be a good thing if he could be taken under his command.

Qiao Luo's clenched fists gradually loosened, and his tone was indifferent, "Okay."

She stood up holding the mask, and the man's deep voice sounded again, "Don't you finish your tea?"

Qiao Luo squinted at him, reached out to pick up the teacup, and finished drinking in one gulp.

Putting the teacup on the table, she lifted her foot and left.

Long Beijue raised his eyes, chasing her back with dark eyes, more courageous than he imagined.

He smiled dumbly and murmured, "Joe, Luo."
