Chapter 1669: Chapter 1669: Assassination
"Don’t laugh!" Fengye Wuyin glared at her furiously, humiliated and angry.
Jun Yiyi was speechless.
Fengye Wuyin’s sharp gaze fell on Ji Lingkong, who was chatting with the councilman’s wife not far away. His purple eyes narrowed slightly; this was the person his father had warned him to be wary of!
This man had been by the councilman’s wife’s side, looking elegant and relaxed, but his eyes harbored vigilance and caution. His mannerisms, and even the position he stood in, were skillful, intentionally or unintentionally distancing the councilman’s wife from the guests who approached to chat, occupying the most advantageous position to protect her safety.
Fengye Wuyin noticed this, and his heart jolted.
He had always been dismissive of others, feeling that most of his peers were fools, and even more were brainless. There were very few smart people, and those who could match his strength were even rarer.
But seeing Ji Lingkong, he immediately felt a sense of vigilance and excitement at meeting a worthy opponent. As a soldier, he could see through such subtle and masterful protection at a glance. This proved that the person’s mind was extremely sharp and their methods were secretive, definitely an extraordinary character.
However, he had no interest in a match now; tonight’s individuals were too important, affecting the future international situation, even the reordering of world powers.
Therefore, the mission could not fail, and no one could interfere.
If he were to take action now, this man would undoubtedly be the most troublesome problem. A way must be devised to draw him away, even if it’s not possible, at least divert his attention so he doesn’t focus on the councilman’s wife’s safety.
In a flash, Fengye Wuyin had already gone through numerous calculations.
Then he stepped away, walked to the wall, and knocked on the table a few times. This was a signal, and soon a waiter carrying a tray came over. When he reached him, he lowered his voice, "What’s wrong, has the plan changed?"
He spoke while pretending to pour him a drink.
It was the voice of Major General Lino, but like Fengye Wuyin, he had also undergone a disguise.
"The man standing by the councilman’s wife needs to be diverted, otherwise he might interfere with my plan." Fengye Wuyin picked up the wine glass, took a sip, thought for a long while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Isn’t there a dance later? Get the host on stage to announce that, to enhance the fun of the dance, the ladies will invite the gentlemen to dance. Then find a woman, bribe her, and have her invite him, persistently, so he can’t escape, distracting him."
Major General Lino nodded, then looked at Jun Yiyi in the crowd, his eyes flickering.
"What about this woman once the assassination of the councilman’s wife succeeds?"
"Do you even need to ask? Anyone involved in this secret plan must be dealt with quietly, leaving no traces." Fengye Wuyin’s voice was extremely cold.
"Alright, I’ve also arranged the retreat plan. Once we succeed, we’ll leave immediately." Major General Lino looked sympathetically at Jun Yiyi. Such a smart and beautiful girl losing her life like this was a pity, but who told her to encounter the most cold-hearted man?
Fengye Wuyin emptied the wine glass in one swig, then casually placed the empty glass back on the tray, tapping it slightly on the edge, causing it to crack gently.
"I’m sorry, guest, I’ll get you a new glass." Major General Lino apologetically, then left with the tray.
This scene didn’t attract anyone’s attention, as their acting was really quite good.
Meanwhile, a sharp shard of glass silently slipped into Fengye Wuyin’s sleeve.
