Volume 1 Return Chapter 125 High Reward

  Chu Yan took over the computer at the same time, Mo Xiuyao's phone rang again. Picking up the mobile phone, Mo Xiuyao saw the number on the screen, which was Wan Cai Ni.

  "Jenny, I received your email and am reading it now." As soon as the phone connected, Mo Xiuyao immediately told Wan Caoni about receiving the email, but Wan Caoni didn't seem to care, and her first question was actually about Chu Yan.

  "Is Chu Yan with you?" There was a hint of anxiety in Jennie's voice, and although Mo Xiuyao couldn't figure out why Wan Caoni would ask this, she still nodded her head to give Wan Caoni an affirmative answer.

  "Yes, I'm with him." Mo Xiuyao's answer made Wan Caoni's anxious voice suddenly relax "Oh, that's good, scared me to death. By the way, I haven't asked you yet? The core members of Japan's Yama family all committed seppuku overnight, does this have something to do with you?"

  Wancai Ni's question hit the vital point, when she was clear-headed, her thinking was extremely cautious and rarely seen, of course, having a bad temper and being prone to hot-headedness were also her biggest characteristics. Now, at this moment, her emotions were calm, so she could always clearly find the real problem.

  "Hmm, how should I put it... the bankruptcy of Yama Corporation was indeed my doing, but their seppuku has nothing to do with me, I'm not a murderer! Are you, Interpol, trying to arrest your good friend and throw them in prison?" With Chu Yan by her side, Mo Xiuyao heard Wan Caoni's voice again, which made her feel much more at ease, and her words were also laced with some relaxed jokes.

  "Less nonsense, you little girl. I don't know why you wanted to bring down the Yishan family, but since you succeeded, I have to give you a thumbs up. However, as the saying goes, 'cutting grass without removing its roots, it will grow again with the spring breeze.' You should understand this principle. Now, the remaining members of the Yishan family are offering $5 million for your head, and I don't know whether to be happy or sad for you."

  Wancai Ni believed Mo Xiuyao's words, but from another perspective, as Mo Xiuyao's best friend and confidant, she didn't quite understand why Mo Xiuyao did this. However, since the timing wasn't right, she didn't ask questions, because she trusted that Mo Xiuyao had sufficient reasons for her actions.

  "This, you can't blame me for. It was Chu Yan who went to Japan with me. If there's anything, go talk to him. And, it's really great to hear your voice." Mo Xiuyao said, handing the phone over to Chu Yan, while she took back her laptop and sat down on the floor mat leaning against the bed, continuing to browse through those unread emails.

  Chu Yan answered the phone, and on the other end, Wan Caoni was silent for a moment before speaking up, "You're the one who killed him, right? You've got some nerve, actually taking out the core figure of an entire mountain clan in one go. Impressive!"

  Wancai Ni's understanding of Chuyan far surpasses anyone else, especially in terms of his identity background and that terrifying skill, when she first saw him take down the Bloodstain Scorpion mercenaries.

  "You, you rarely come, that's because they have the spirit of Bushido, their family's conglomerate went bankrupt and closed down, in order to be loyal to the Emperor, they voluntarily committed seppuku. Don't you understand the spirit of Bushido of those little Japanese warriors? I'm a good citizen, with proper behavior, handsome appearance, making many contributions to society and world peace, an unselfish person." Chu Yan wouldn't really answer Wan Cai Ni's words, this little girl is after all an Interpol agent, although Interpol has undergone global military alliance redivision, her identity is still that of maintaining world peace as an Interpol agent, the fewer handles she can get on him the better.

  Actually, after returning to headquarters, Wan Cai Ni conducted a series of investigations on Chu Yan's identity and surprisingly found his information. Unfortunately, her level was not enough to view the specific content of the data. This is the convenience brought by the unified access of military and police databases after the international military alliance integration, but after the unified access of military and police databases, the restrictions on levels are also more stringent.

  So later on, Wancai Ni had asked her supervisor to print out Chu Yan's file and study it carefully. To her surprise, even her direct supervisor's level was not enough, that scarlet level restriction still appeared in Wancai Ni's mind from time to time.

  "Really wasn't you who did it?" Wancai Ni naturally wouldn't believe Chu Yan's words, but since Chu Yan was unwilling to admit it, she had no choice but to ask again.

  "No, I swear, I'm innocent. However, someone wants to kill Mo Xi Yao, and this thing is probably already underway. I saw in your email that at least three assassins have taken on this task. I really want to know, did the Yishan family set a task with no limit on the number of people? If I remember correctly, tasks for assassins are usually limited to one person, right?" Chu Yan quickly shifted the topic back to the matter at hand, and Wan Cai Ni also stopped asking about the core members of the Yishan family being killed.

  "No, they posted a bounty task, whoever completes it first gets the reward. According to Interpol's surveillance data, at least three hitmen have taken on this job because it looks like a low-risk and high-reward task. The only thing they need to worry about is that the target is in China, and getting away with killing her won't be easy.

  Mentioning the bounty task, Wang Caoni pinched Mo Xiuyao's hand, making her sweat. This kind of unlimited-participant bounty task usually only appears for extremely difficult tasks, but now they're using this level of bounty to kill a Chinese woman... it seems like the Yishan family really wants Mo Xiuyao dead as soon as possible.

  The problem is, the core members of the Yishan family have already died, and ordinary Yishan family members who know about this matter can be ruled out. So why did such a substantial bounty appear?"

  The entire core of interests of the Yishan Group has died, and the people below have absolutely no way of knowing the actual situation of the group. Even when Mo Xiuyao and Chu Yan disappeared in Japan that time, the members of the Yishan family who were sent to find Mo Xiuyao only knew to search, but they had no idea about Mo Xiuyao's identity. After all, the internal struggles within the group could not be made known to ordinary members, otherwise, it would shake the foundation of the Yishan family. If the foundation is shaken, the consequences that follow will accelerate the collapse of the group. Although the Yishan Group did eventually collapse, this collapse came suddenly for ordinary members, as if overnight, the place they worked hard for had vanished into thin air, without any warning signs at all.

  "Is someone stirring up trouble in the middle?" Chu Yan was not stupid at all. As soon as the reward came out, he had already begun to analyze countless possibilities in his mind. The final analysis result was the same as Wan Cai Ni's inference: ordinary members of the Yi Shan family didn't know who the enemy of the group was, and they were even completely ignorant of the actual situation of the group. At most, they might have received official explanations such as "the group's business development is hindered" or "the expansion speed is slow".

  "If it wasn't for that, I couldn't think of why a ordinary member of the Yan family, who has already fallen into dust, would have such great courage and accurate information, even to the point where Mo Xi Yao's identity was investigated clearly." Wan Cai Ni agreed with what Chu Yan said, and in Chu Yan's mind, it seemed like a flash of inspiration, a face suddenly appeared in front of his eyes "It's him!"

  "What did you say?" Chu Yan's sudden muttering to himself caused Wan Cai Ni to pause for a moment on the other end of the phone, before asking a question. Chu Yan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head "Nothing, just a guess."

  "Okay, fine. For the next few days, don't leave Yuxiao's side, I'm afraid something might happen to her if she's alone. Also, I'll be taking a two-week break starting from the day after tomorrow, and when I get back, I'll keep her company and make sure this matter is thoroughly resolved. Otherwise, I won't be able to rest assured." Wan Caoni hung up the phone, and Chu Yan turned around, his gaze falling on Mo Yuxiao who was intently staring at the computer screen.

  "What are you looking at, so focused?" Chu Yan put Mo Xiuyao's phone aside and walked over to sit beside her. His gaze fell on the laptop in Mo Xiuyao's lap.

  "Oh, nothing, just watching the movie we didn't finish." What surprised Chu Yan was that Mo Xiuyao wasn't checking emails or browsing news, but this little girl was actually watching a movie, and it was the one they hadn't finished in the cinema during the midnight screening - "Co-habitation at Dawn".

  Mo Xiuyao adjusted her posture, leaning into Chu Yan's arms, and the two of them sat on the thick carpet, watching a beautifully shot youth idol film.

  Until the end of the movie, Chu Yan's anger was almost hooked away. He lowered his head to look at Mo Xi Yao and only then did he realize that this little girl had unknowingly fallen asleep in his arms at some point.

  "Ah, these days seem to be a bit too dry, after this matter is settled, I must find an opportunity to water it well." Holding back his anger, Chu Yan put Mo Xiuyao on the bed, covered her with the quilt and then got up and left Mo Xiuyao's bedroom, coming to the sofa in the living room and lying down without undressing.

  At the moment when Chu Yan closed the door, Mo Xi Yao, who was originally sleeping soundly, slowly opened her eyes. This little girl seemed to have not slept at all. She was also made a bit parched by the movie, but due to her inexplicable unfamiliarity with Chu Yan, what would have been a sweet and natural occurrence was instead stifled in its cradle by this little girl.

  It was a quiet night, and the morning sunlight had just entered the villa when Chu Yan woke up. In the dining room, a faint milk fragrance had wafted out, and one of the two unfamiliar women that Chu Yan had seen earlier walked out of the kitchen, holding two cups of milk in her hand.

  Upstairs, Caesar followed another woman downstairs and sat at the dining table in the restaurant with a sleepy face. In fact, Caesar had already gotten up early, but he was not in a good mood, so his expression was a bit dazed.

  After finishing the milk, Cai Sa silently got up from the dinner table and walked in front of Chu Yan, staring at him with a serious face, as if he had something to say.

  Chu Yan stretched out a lazy waist and then patted the sofa beside him, indicating that Caesar should sit down.

  "Anything you want to say? You've been standing here for half a day, after all." Caesar sat down, and Chuyan put his arm around Caesar's shoulder, asking with a smile.

  "When are you planning to marry Mo's sister?" Caesar's question slipped out in Chu Yan's expectation!
