Chapter 33: A Tool Man

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This month was drawing to a close but this was the first time she talked to him this month. Although he said her score wasn’t bad, she didn’t know whether he really meant it or if he was just being sarcastic.

Sheng Tai stroked his chin, narrowed his eyes, and smiled. “Well, that’s a good question, but…”

He turned Sheng Yue around by the shoulders so that she was facing away from him. “Why don’t you ask your mother?”

In Sheng Yang’s room, she was studying the law of Beale Ciphers.

Even the most well-known Morse Code was no match for the Beale Ciphers. No one had ever cracked the Beale Ciphers yet, but she had some clues.

The Beale Ciphers were composed of many groups of densely packed numbers.

This was a headache to others but was quite interesting to her. She had somewhat of an obsession with unsolved puzzles.

At this moment, she suddenly heard something and glanced keenly at the window.

The wind blew the white curtains, and the moonlight outside the window looked so bright.

Was it an illusion? She frowned.

She had just retracted her gaze when a figure sprang towards her. She moved agilely aside, only to be pressed against the wall next to the wardrobe.

Face to face, the man’s sparkling eyes were as deep as the sea and seemed to be full of starlight. He put his fingers on his thin and sexy lips. “Shhh.”

Sheng Yang looked at him silently.

This wasn’t the first time. She had almost gotten used to it.

This man, like a flower from hell, mandala, was beautiful yet dangerous.

In a short while, she heard rustling sounds which were very light but gradually approaching.

The man propped a hand against the wall and gazed at her closely. This scene was ambiguous and beautiful, but Sheng Yang’s eyes were cold. She just looked at him calmly and listened.

Danger was gradually approaching.

At the same time, she clenched her fists secretly. She had decided to never show any mercy to her enemies.

Yi Juncheng looked down at her hand then raised his eyes, his smile bright and his voice low and husky. “Don’t worry. I’m here.”

Sheng Yang remained still in a defensive posture.

Her two clenched little fists were like little buns that were inexplicably murderous.

Yi Juncheng smiled.

She was iron-hearted, not believing in anyone but herself, but…

She was so cute when she was like this.

A smile hovered on Yi Juncheng’s lips, and his beautiful eyes sparkled. He was iterally mesmerizing!

After a while, there was the sound of someone falling from the balcony outside, followed by the cold voice of Gao Feng. “Master, it’s done! Sorry I was late.”

“Yes, you are,” Yi Juncheng said lightly, but he didn’t sound as murderous as usual.

Carrying the assassin who had been knocked out by him, Gao Feng left quietly, looking back as he left.

Wow, Master is really awesome.

While being hunted, he actually used the assassin as his tool to chase a girl!

No longer in danger, Yi Juncheng stood up straight as did Sheng Yang.

Yi Juncheng looked around her room, which was just as he imagined.

In addition to those books, a globe, and various kinds of learning tools, there were almost no trinkets that normal girls liked.

She didn’t like jewelry or beautiful clothes but she looked good in any clothes.

Now she was wearing an off-white puff-sleeved shirt with a black tulle pleated skirt, looking celestial.

Her clothes were simple and nice, and her hair was pulled into a bun on the top of the head, making her look elegant and beautiful.
