So Pure, So Flirtatious

“The place where I want to bring you is also in Shanty Town.” Yang Ming smiled. “To be honest, the first time I came to your headquarters, I was baffled. Why is your headquarters located here too? Because my assassin friend is also living here.”

“Ah? Such a coincidence!” Wang Xiaoyan was enlightened. No wonder Yang Ming knew how to come to this place. She initially thought he had something to deal with. But after listening to Yang Ming, Wang Xiaoyan asked, baffled, “Your friend is also an assassin? He also lives here?”

“En, he is also an assassin, but he has retired. He no longer takes on missions. However, he still has a wide network, so he can help us to contact some business.” Yang Ming said truthfully. He had gotten Fang Tian’s permission beforehand, but Yang Ming did not understand why Fang Tian let him say so much. Logically, this was a matter of confidentiality. Even though his relationship with Wang Xiaoyan was very close, he still didn’t understand Wang Xiaoyan’s family background. Therefore, Yang Ming had always been very cautious.

However, since Fang Tian said that it didn’t matter, then Yang Ming didn’t have to care so much. He told everything to Wang Xiaoyan.

Obviously, Wang Xiaoyan was surprised and moved that Yang Ming could say so much without hiding. The two’s initial cooperation was only because of a common interest. There was no trust, but their relationship had changed over time.

Wang Xiaoyan said a lot of words after drinking, but it didn’t mean that she wasn’t conscious. She was definitely drunk, but she still remembered what she said.

Regarding her current feelings, Wang Xiaoyan was also very clear, and she was in a dilemma. She didn’t know if it was right or wrong to continue with Yang Ming, but one thing she was certain of was that Yang Ming was also beginning to pay attention to her.

This secret resources of the assassin community generally wouldn’t be shared unless it was to the closest people. When Yang Ming first performed the task, he took her to the introducer, which showed the degree of importance that Yang Ming placed on her.

Of course, Wang Xiaoyan didn’t know that all of this was actually acquiesced by Fang Tian. Otherwise, even if Yang Ming were bold, he wouldn’t dare to reveal Fang Tian’s identity openly!

Yang Ming parked the car on the small path near Shanty Town and said, “The car can’t go further anymore. Let’s get off and walk there.”

Wang Xiaoyan was not the kind of spoiled princess who would be tired from just a few steps. She did not feel anything wrong. Instead, Yang Ming’s special reminder made her baffled.

“It’s right here.” Yang Ming stopped at the side of a small courtyard and said to Wang Xiaoyan behind him. After that, he pushed the door and went in.

“Old man, I am here.” Yang Ming closed the door and shouted loudly. Wang Xiaoyan clicked her tongue. He is your senior, no matter what. Why is Yang Ming so disrespectful?

Fang Tian was probably already ready. When he heard Yang Ming’s voice, he walked out of the house and said, “Don’t shout. Come in first and wait for a while; I will make contact for the matter about leaving the country now.”

Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan entered the house together. Wang Xiaoyan was assessing Fang Tian’s room with curiosity. It was almost similar to the home of most elderly people living in Shanty Town: a rocking chair, a bed, an old-fashioned TV, a radio, and some scraps.

Wang Xiaoyan was also very curious about Fang Tian. He looks like a peaceful old man; he doesn’t seem like an assassin no matter what. However, you can’t judge a book by its cover. I used to think that Yang Ming wasn’t like an assassin, but he is actually better than me.

“Not bad. Not bad!” After Fang Tian made a phone call, he went into the house. He looked at Wang Xiaoyan with a smile, and he kept nodding. “This little girl is very beautiful!”

After Yang Ming listened to Fang Tian’s words, he broke into a sweat. Why does this look like a marriage interview for me? He quickly introduced, “Old man, this is Wang Xiaoyan. I told you before.”

“En, I know.” Fang Tian nodded. “Your little girlfriend, right?!”

“Ugh…” Yang Ming was very surprised by Fang Tian’s behavior today. He actually made a joke at Yang Ming. However, Fang Tian’s character was like a kidult, so Yang Ming was used to it.

Fang Tian’s words made Wang Xiaoyan blush, and she quickly explained, “No… we are just partners…”

“Oh, partner, is it? Partner is good…” Fang Tian nodded and suddenly turned the thread of discussion, “But don’t bring the partnership to bed.”

Wang Xiaoyan was originally feeling guilty. When Fang Tian pointed out her thoughts, her face blushed even more. She didn’t know what to say.

“Actually, there is nothing wrong with it.” Fang Tian waved. “In fact, I am the master of Yang Ming, and I think that you are quite good. It’s not bad being a wife for my apprentice…”

“Huh?” After listening to Fang Tian, Wang Xiaoyan was immediately stunned! The old man in front of me is actually Yang Ming’s master? Doesn’t that mean that he is even better than Yang Ming? Why can’t I see how powerful he is?

Moreover, what did he mean just now… did he agree to the relationship between Yang Ming and me? When Wang Xiaoyan thought of it, she was a little happy and a little envious of Yang Ming. His master is really open. If my father were like this too, that would be great!

Yang Ming’s Kung Fu is a thousand times stronger than mine, and his master is certainly not a simple character. But, he is so easy to talk to, and my father is so harsh about my marriage…

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoyan couldn’t help but sigh and said, “Let’s leave this matter for the future. Let’s talk about the mission first?”

Fang Tian smiled lightly and said nothing. He knew Wang Xiaoyan’s identity better than Yang Ming, and he was very clear about why Wang Xiaoyan left home. So he was more cognizant about Wang Xiaoyan’s worries. However, Fang Tian wouldn’t expose it. It wouldn’t be good if some matters were revealed, so it was better to let it go.

“I will find a car to take you to Guangxi in a while, and then you will take a boat to Vietnam.” Fang Tian said, “Although the plane is very fast, you should understand why I don’t let you take it, right.”

Yang Ming nodded. Taking the plane would require registration of their identities. Although it was only a domestic flight, and there should be no problems, it is better to be safe than sorry. Fang Tian didn’t want Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan to leave any relevant evidence when they went to Guanxi together.

“The person who is picking you up will be responsible for sending you to Vietnam, then there will be corresponding people there to meet you.” Fang Tian said, “There should be no problems, but even if something happens, there won’t be any problems with your skills. Anyway, it isn’t in the territory of our own country. You can kill as you wish and can just run away after that.”

Yang Ming broke into a sweat. He thought, Do you think that killing is like cutting vegetables? And even kill as I wish? To be honest, Yang Ming had never murdered the innocent. Those who died under Yang Ming basically deserved to be dead.

Even with this political opponent of General Kars, he should have killed a lot of innocent people, so Yang Ming shouldn’t be blamed for killing him.

Except for the Vietnam border, the inspections in the other places were rigorous. While the inspection was very loose in Vietnam, he could smuggle to any country.

“I won’t say anything extra. Just be careful.” Fang Tian advised. Only at this moment, he was like a master.

“Do not worry.” Yang Ming nodded and said, “I know what to do.”

“Protect your little girlfriend well.” Fang Tian glanced at Wang Xiaoyan and instructed Yang Ming.

Yang Ming didn’t understand why Fang Tian valued Wang Xiaoyan so much. Was it because she was also an assassin? Fang Tian basically ignored his other girlfriends.

“Okay,” Yang Ming promised.

Wang Xiaoyan also felt a bit strange. She felt that Fang Tian’s impression of her was too good.

Not long after, Fang Tian took another call, and there was a knock on the door. Fang Tian went to open the door, then a fat man came in and shook hands with Fang Tian enthusiastically, “Old Man Fang, I haven’t seen you in several years!”

Fang Tian smiled and shook hands with him. The fat man still wanted to have a hug with Fang Tian, but seeing that Fang Tian didn’t intend to do that, he had to forget about it. He said, “The car is ready; when can we leave?”

“This is Yang Ming and his little girlfriend. Take good care of them for me.” Fang Tian pointed to Yang Ming.

“Do not worry, Old Man Fang. I will definitely accomplish the task that you assigned to me!” The fat man promised again and again.

Fang Tian obviously trusted the fat man very much. He nodded and said, “Be prepared. We will depart as soon as possible. We are nearly three thousand kilometers away from the destination. It takes one day and one night to drive.”

“Two young people, hi! My name is Li Si. Ha, of course, not the big traitor around Qin Shihuang. This name is a bit like that… but it can’t be helped. My parents named me. You can just call me Fatty Li.” The fat man laughed and introduced himself to Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan.

Yang Ming listened to the fat man’s self-introduction, and he naturally skipped the courtesy. His real name was really a bit awkward, so it was better to call him Fatty Li.

“Fatty Li, then let’s go. We are going to trouble you on this journey.” Yang Ming nodded and said.

“With pleasure!” Fatty Li nodded. He said goodbye to Fang Tian and went out with Yang Ming.

The fat man’s car was a green military old Toyota 4500 [1]. It was parked behind Yang Ming’s car. Yang Ming had informed Bao Sanli to retrieve the car later, so Yang Ming wasn’t worried.

After they got in Fatty Li’s car, Yang Ming sat in the front seat position while Wang Xiaoyan sat in the back row.

“If you are tired, you can sleep.” Yang Ming said to Wang Xiaoyan. “We have to ride for nearly a day.”

“En…” Wang Xiaoyan was slowly getting used to Yang Ming’s care. If Wang Xiaoyan didn’t have such care around her one day, she could hardly imagine what her life would be like.

“Hey, little brother, isn’t the car brand in front quite bad*ss? How did it stop in the slums? Aren’t the people living nearby poor?” Fatty Li got in the car and pointed at the car in front of him. “Is this the evil interest of the rich? Coming here to be pretentious?”

“Haha…” As soon as Fatty Li just finished, Wang Xiaoyan in the back row couldn’t help but laugh.

“What’s wrong? What are you laughing at? Am I not right?” Fatty Li listened to Wang Xiaoyan’s laughter, and he felt somehow inexplicable.

“…” Yang Ming sweated a little and said, “Fatty, that’s my car…”

“Ugh… Ah?” Fatty Li was astounded too, but he immediately smiled embarrassed, “Brother, this is your car? I’m sorry…”

“It’s fine…” Yang Ming shook his head and said, “You’re right. This car is a bit too eye-catching. When I come back, I will change cars. It’s better to be low-key. Otherwise, someone is going to say that it’s an evil interest of rich men…”

“Haha…” Fatty Li noticed Yang Ming didn’t mind, and he laughed straightforwardly.

Fatty Li’s driving skills were excellent, and he also drove very fast. He quickly shuttled through the traffic of Song Jiang City, and they were on the Song Jiang Expressway not long after.

Fatty Li was a very talkative person. Yang Ming learned about his relationship with Fang Tian before getting too far. In the early years, Fang Tian saved Fatty Li once. Fatty Li always remembered it in his heart, but he also knew that Fang Tian was a powerful person. It did no harm to maintain a good relationship with him, so they had been in contact for many years.

However, Fang Tian had nothing to trouble him.

Fatty Li’s father was a mainlander, and his mother was Vietnamese. He was now living in Vietnam, doing a local gang’s business in Vietnam and helping some Vietnamese girls to smuggle into the Mainland and other countries.

Vietnam was a poor country. Because of the long years of war, the ratio of men to women had become 3:5. A small number of men were even disabled after the war, so many Vietnamese girls wanted to marry abroad.

Fatty Li was in this business. He helped to smuggle them into foreign countries and charged them a smuggling fee, then he charged referral fees to the bachelors who wanted to marry Vietnamese wives.

Even the income of a migrant worker or a farmer in the Mainland was much more profitable than an ordinary person in Vietnam. The demands of the girls who came here weren’t high. As long as they had enough food and clothes, this was much better than when they were in the local area.

This kind of business on both sides made Fatty Li a fortune. It was a business that wouldn’t suffer a loss. In these years, he was doing pretty well. According to him, his local influence in Vietnam was great.

Yang Ming also knew a little about this phenomenon, but he knew how poor and backward the real Vietnam was from the mouth of Fatty Li. He also felt sad for the fate of those teenage girls.

However, Yang Ming wasn’t a savior. Everyone has his way of life, and Yang Ming couldn’t care too much. At least, these girls thought that getting out of Vietnam was already a kind of happiness for them.

“After these people are married, can they register for permanent residence?” Yang Ming asked.

“What can they register? They are all unregistered citizens!” Fatty Li shook his head and said. “But if they have a child, and if the child stays there, the child can be registered if there is corresponding proof. These things depend on the man who marries a Vietnamese wife. I am not responsible for this.”

Yang Ming sighed but didn’t say much. Seeing that Yang Ming didn’t talk, Fatty Li closed his mouth and continued driving.

“Right, little brother, what is your relationship with Mr. Fang Tian?” Fatty Li was silent for a while, but he couldn’t help it.

“Friends.” Yang Ming didn’t say too much. There was no need to tell these things to Fatty Li.

When Fatty Li heard Yang Ming’s indifferent tone, he was first astounded, but then he reacted, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked this.”

He faintly knew Fang Tian’s identity, knowing that these people were very powerful and mysterious. If Yang Ming was the similar kind… Fatty Li suddenly had a cold sweat in his collar.

“Nothing.” Yang Ming said faintly. “We will trouble you for this time, but if you need my help in the future, I will help if I can.”

“Well, no problem.” Fatty Li nodded quickly and said, “Hah, little brother is really forthright!”

Under Fatty Li’s deliberate intentions, the topic was brought to the customs of Vietnam. Fatty Li was a person who couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Since he couldn’t mention some topics, he would naturally avoid them. He started to talk some nonsense.

“Going to Africa from Vietnam, is there any problem?” Yang Ming was going to Vietnam for the first time after all, and it was also his first time going to Africa, so he was still worried.

“No problem.” Fatty Li shook his head. “I have some power in northern Vietnam. You can go anywhere!”

“That’s good!” Yang Ming saw that Fatty Li was self-confident, so he no longer doubted anything.

“After we reach Vietnam, do we leave right away? Don’t you want to play there for a few days?” Fatty Li felt that Yang Ming didn’t seem to be a simple character, so he tried to get them closer to each other.

Although Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan looked like a small couple of students who were traveling abroad, Fatty Li knew that Fang Tian’s friends could never be ordinary people.

Moreover, if the two people wanted to smuggle into Africa through this special channel, then their identities were even more mysterious. Fatty Li was still not sure what Wang Xiaoyan’s identity was. Maybe she was Yang Ming’s girlfriend, or Yang Ming was just bringing her out to play, but he knew Yang Ming was definitely not an ordinary person.

“We’ll talk about that when we come back.” Yang Ming smiled. “There is not much time now. I am in a hurry on the Africa side.”

“Alright, you can play with peace of mind if you have solved your matter.” Fatty Li nodded and stopped asking.

“How are you? Do you need me to drive for a while?” Yang Ming looked at Fatty Li and asked. After all, he had been driving for more than ten hours. Yang Ming was afraid that Fatty Li couldn’t take it.

“No problem. This is nothing!” Fatty Li smiled and said, “In the beginning, I was rowing the boat alone to smuggle a boatload of people. I could even row for a day and a night!”

Yang Ming nodded and no longer insisted. Fatty Li relied on this to earn money. If he said that there was no problem, of course, there should be no problem.

Finally, in the early morning of the second day, at daybreak, Yang Ming and his party arrived at the destination of the trip, Beilun River.
