C67 Return to Tranquility
"He seems to be cultivating …"
Halfway through Bai Yifei's sentence, he saw the worker's car next to him suddenly tilt in his direction.
In a split-second, Bai Yifei turned around and pounced on Lee Xue. Both of them fell to the side of the road.
"Xue'er, are you alright?" Bai Yifei pulled Lee Xue along and stood up.
Lee Xue wanted to reply, but when she looked up, her eyes widened, and she became speechless from fright.
In front of them stood the worker who had just passed them. However, the worker held a shining dagger in his hand.
The worker was surprised that Bai Yifei managed to dodge the attack. He then calmed down and looked at the two of them coldly, trying to attack them again.
Bai Yifei looked at the person in front of him vigilantly. He didn't notice anything earlier, but now that he looked at him, it seemed like this person was full of flaws.
This person was tall and had tanned skin. He was a big guy, so he didn't look like much. However, his eyes were very cold, like cold wind in a world of ice and snow.
In addition, the ring was surrounded. The workers were all inside, so they shouldn't be outside pushing a load of cement. Moreover, this person's hands were very clean and didn't look like those of a worker at all.
At that moment, Bai Yifei was in the midst of sensing danger, which was why he reacted so quickly. Otherwise, the dagger would have stabbed into his body already.
"Who are you?" Bai Yifei tried his best to remain calm as he asked.
That person's eyes were sharp like a pair of poisoned fangs as he stared straight at Bai Yifei, "The person who will take your life!"
As soon as he said that, Bai Yifei pulled Lee Xue and ran off.
"Run!"
Lee Xue had been scared out of her wits long time ago. When she heard the sound, she subconsciously reacted and ran after him. With Bai Yifei pulling her, she didn't freeze on the spot.
Bai Yifei didn't know where the White Tiger was. Since it didn't appear, it probably wasn't nearby either. Waiting for the White Tiger to come and save them wasn't realistic, so there was only one way, and that was to run!
The man glanced at Bai Yifei and didn't rush to catch up with him. To him, it was too easy to catch up with two people. Right now, it was like he was enjoying the game of cat and mouse, he wasn't in a hurry at all.
Bai Yifei lost his cool and led Lee Xue to a building that was in the process of stopping construction.
Looking around, Bai Yifei looked behind him again. He pulled Lee Xue and ran upstairs, "Let's go upstairs."
Lee Xue panicked as she followed Bai Yifei. Her brain had already lost its ability to think.
Bai Yifei thought that if they went upstairs, they could stall for time. If they ran fast, they might be able to hide in one of the rooms. After all, with so many floors and rooms, it wasn't easy for him to search them one by one.
The man leisurely walked to the side of the building, glanced at the staircase, and disdainfully smiled, "You think you can avoid it like this?"
Upstairs, Bai Yifei thought for a while and finally gave up on the idea of hiding in his room. If he hid there, he could only wait for death!
Therefore, the two of them simply panted and went straight to the roof. There were still many things on the roof that they had not taken away, and some miscellaneous stones and a few carts.
Bai Yifei looked around and let go of Lee Xue's hand. Just as he was about to leave, he was grabbed by Lee Xue.
"Bai Yifei …" Lee Xue's voice was shaking.
Bai Yifei quickly turned around and comforted her, "Don't be scared, I'm going to find something. I'll be there shortly."
With reddened eyes, Lee Xue nodded and reluctantly let go of Bai Yifei's hand.
The moment Bai Yifei let go of Ye Zichen's hand, he also felt reluctant to part with it. If it was before, it would be a rare opportunity, but now, the situation did not allow him to think about anything else.
Bai Yifei walked to the side and pushed a few carts over. Then, he brought another large tarpaulin over, "Xue'er, come and hide in this corner."
Lee Xue nodded blankly and went to stand in the corner.
Bai Yifei pulled the car and the tarpaulin over so that Lee Xue could squat down. Finally, he hid Lee Xue entirely.
After he was done, he did not intend to come in.
"Bai Yifei, why aren't you coming in?" Lee Xue was no longer afraid. Instead, she was very worried.
Bai Yifei shook his head, "His target is me! When I fight with him, you will rush out. Don't look back, I will do my best to delay him! "
"No!" Lee Xue shook her head firmly.
Bai Yifei was slightly moved, but the situation was critical, so he said: "Xue'er, I will be fine. Once you go out and call the police, I will be fine."
Lee Xue's eyes reddened once again. Bai Yifei was thinking for her even in such a dangerous situation. How could she not be moved by his kindness?
"I …" Lee Xue wanted to stay, but she knew that it would be more difficult for Bai Yifei if she stayed, so she could only endure and nod.
Seeing this, Bai Yifei was relieved. At this moment, he heard footsteps.
"Quickly hide!"
Lee Xue was shocked and quickly crouched down. Bai Yifei used the oilcloth to cover Lee Xue.
He walked quickly to the other side, far away from Lee Xue, so as not to arouse suspicion that someone was hiding there.
Bai Yifei immediately took out his cell phone and called White Tiger, but the moment he called, the man came back.
The man looked around and didn't see the woman. He frowned and looked at Bai Yifei.
Bai Yifei put his hands behind his back and tried to stall for time. He asked, "Who wants to kill me?"
The man said coldly, "Sorry, this is an industry rule. You can't say it!"
"Then who are you?" Bai Yifei asked again.
The man harrumphed, "I don't mind telling you. Since you're going to die anyway, I'll let you know after you die."

"I, Beijing's No. 1 Assassin!"
"What?" Bai Yifei was stunned.
The number one assassin in the capital, coming here to kill him?
Bai Yifei took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Since he was the number one assassin in the capital, then he must be powerful. Perhaps even the White Tiger wouldn't be able to take care of him.
He couldn't care less and could only try his best to stall for time.
"Can you tell me why my employer killed me?" Bai Yifei asked.
The man frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "You're blocking the way."
Bai Yifei's face sank. Obstructing the road?
He didn't know anyone in the capital? Whose path was he blocking? Or could it be related to his own father?
Thinking about it this way, Bai Yifei seemed to have found the key point and understood a little bit.
"How much did he pay? I'll pay double!"
The man glanced at Bai Yifei from head to toe and said, "I am an assassin with principles."
"…"
Bai Yifei was anxious. This killer was so stubborn, he couldn't hold him back any longer.
At this time, the killer coldly spoke, "Are you trying to stall for time?"
Then he scoffed again, "It's no use! The person beside you is not my match! "
As an assassin, he had to find out his target. He had to find out everything about him. Otherwise, if something happened, he wouldn't even know how he died!
Bai Yifei's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, the White Tiger was not his match!
The hitman continued, "The person beside you thinks he is invincible after just a few years of learning? I'll tell you, I've been learning since I was young. It's been over 20 years now! "
It went without saying who was stronger!
"Do you know Lin Xiao?"
Bai Yifei's heart skipped a beat, "Lin Xiao?"
"That's right, it's that Lin Xiao you were thinking of. That Lin Xiao who won the world championship and fought the national championship freely. I was the one who killed him!"
