HaoXuan's POV

One could think it should get boring to watch a person sleeping but it wasn't like that. I liked it. All Ji Yang's movements, from a frown to a twitch of his eyes to a small smile. I missed nothing and I could watch him all day long. But then my phone rang and I answered the call as fast as possible to not wake the doctor up. With fast steps I walked out of the room into the living room, leaving the sleeping Ji Yang behind.

Once I was sure I wouldn't wake him up, I moved the phone to my ear. "Yes, boss?"

"I have him," Meng Yao said and despite him trying to sound as he usual did, I didn't miss the excitement in his voice.

"Congratulations, boss." I chuckled.

"If today's mission had failed I would have killed you, HaoXuan."

"No, you wouldn't." I laughed. "Anyway, I am happy that you got your lover back. Now make sure to not lose him again."

"You did a good job."

"I always do." I grinned.

"Not always. May I remind you that we lost a few girls because of your reckless behavior?"

"How was I supposed to know that the brother of the prosecutor would be this smart..." I rolled my eyes. "But didn't it turn out good after changing from that brother to Ji Yang?"

"...." He was quiet for a moment before he spoke again. "You and especially B. can find out a lot of information. When you saw that Wang Haikuan was a very skilled doctor it should be obvious that he is smart as well!" He said with a slightly annoyed tone. But then he sighed. "Anyway, I will forget that this happened. That will be your reward for bringing back Xiao Zhan to me."

"What an honor... Then what about Ji Yang? Shouldn't he get a reward too?" I chuckled.

"Idiot...." Meng Yao mumbled. "Your mission is over. Good job. Now kill that doctor and come back. I have a few girls waiting to be trained and I also have potential buyers."

My amusement was gone and my smile froze on my face. Suddenly I felt cold and annoyed for an unknown reason. "Ex-...excuse me?"

"Did you lose your hearing or what?" He asked slightly irritated.

"N-no. I just... I think I misheard you or something...." I tried to explain and heard him sighing.

"I told you to kill that doctor and come back to train the newly arrived girls. Oh, and make sure no evidence will be left behind. You know what I mean, right? No fingerprints, no blood, no DNA. It would be even better if no one finds that doctor's body. Without a corpse, there will be no crime."

"Kill Ji Yang?.... I?" I asked and felt sick. When I heard the next words of Meng Yao I was about to throw up.

"Are you deaf!? Yes, you have to kill him! Who else should do it? Want me to send someone to do the job?" He asked irritated before he suddenly started to yell. Not at me but as someone next to him.

"Don't you dare to touch him! I will do that! Go out!" He ordered before turning his attention back to his phone. "Hurry up and come back as soon as you killed him." With that, he cut the call.
