Chapter 69: Conversation
Xing Jiuan rarely made mistakes in her actions. It was only at the beginning when she was not yet very proficient in leading people that she would inadvertently leave the rookies behind and carry out the mission alone.
At that time, Mu Qing would always hear the news that the mission had been completed before the rookies had set off.
Xing Jiuan’s mission completion rate was one hundred percent, and the casualty rate for the team was zero.
Of course, this was partly because Mu Qing was worried about her safety previously. Therefore, the tasks assigned to her were slightly easier.
However, many of them were similar to today’s mission.
After all, a particularly easy target would not be their mission.
Xing Jiuan had been trained since she was young. She had seen too much with Mu Qing before she became an adult. Many people had said that Xing Jiuan was an especially outstanding agent.
Their previous operations were rarely in Country Hua, and the fugitives they wanted to catch were mostly active internationally. Xing Jiuan had already made a name for herself. She did not expect that her first operation after her rebirth would cause her to make a mistake. This made her overthink once again.
Mu Qing looked at Xing Jiuan, who was blaming herself, and sighed slightly.
Xing Jiuan had been too sensitive recently.
Ou Qi and Lu Mingxi did not say anything. They only felt that Xing Jiuan was being a little strange. Furthermore, they had also heard from the two people who followed Xing Jiuan that Lu Zhichen might have been injured if she had not gone over abruptly. It was only right for her to save someone.
They did not have to execute the mission in secret.
Su Yize had no idea what was going on and looked confused.
“Jiuan, come with me first,” Mu Qing called out to her.
Xing Jiuan followed along.
Xing Jiuan did not say anything when the two of them arrived at the study.
“Jiuan, you’ve taken this matter too seriously.” Mu Qing sighed. “Why are you so nervous?”
They had already made all the preparations. That criminal would not have escaped from their hands. Moreover, they were confident that there would not have been any casualties.
No one expected Lu Zhichen’s sudden arrival. Even Ou Qi did not find out that Lu Zhichen had come to City B for this matter.
Although they were leading newcomers, the most important thing was the success of this mission.
Normally, Xing Jiuan would not be like this because of one mistake. She would only make herself do better next time.
Xing Jiuan lowered her eyes. She still couldn’t be free from her previous life.
She had lived a long and short lifetime, after all.
Her self-confidence was defeated by the accident that had almost cost her her life, and the subsequent deterioration of her physique had left her in a sorry and embarrassing state.
Mu Qing and the others knew that Xing Jiuan had never lost before.
But to Xing Jiuan, this was her first operation since that accident.
She’d really wanted to be at her best to forget her sorry state.
“Senior Brother, I think I won’t be participating in the operations for the time being. I’m not in a good state.”
“Jiuan, you give importance to mistakes too much. A mission’s plan is important, but everything still depends on the situation. We don’t have to make a move in secret.”
However, she had changed from acting secretly to acting openly. In the past, she had also changed her plans because of unexpected situations, but she had always been able to do so very well. However, why was she making a big fuss this time?!
“Perhaps it’s because…” Xing Jiuan’s voice was very soft. “I wanted to prove myself too much.”
Mu Qing did not hear clearly. He asked her to repeat that, but Xing Jiuan did not say anything else.
“Senior Brother, I think I need to apologize to them.”
She was the one who’d led them. She was also the one who’d made a mistake.
She would not hide her mistakes.
