The ocean breeze picks up again as Ning Mei stood in silence on the dock. She stares at the man and she couldn’t help but scans him from head to toe and back up.

She found is strange that someone like this man would dress so shabby. With all the money he had collected, she was sure he would be living a life full of wealth. However, instead, he looked like he hasn’t taken a shower in over a year.

Thinking this, she remembers something Wei Hongyi once said her. She clearly brush her thoughts away and turn her entire body to face him.

"Money isn’t a problem. If you can get the job done as soon as possible, I will have the money prepared for you."

The man’s brows furrow together, and he taps his fingers on the metal dock rail. His eyes slowly flutter, and he comes to a decision.

"I can assure you that I will get the job done, even if it is tonight."

Ning Mei’s entire being froze at his words. She did say as soon as possible, but she did not expect him to say tonight. However, if he can really kill Yue Ling and Zhao Ya’Er with no evidence leading back to her then she can’t miss such a grand opportunity.

She reaches inside her handbag and retrieves that bank card Wei Hongyi had given her.

"In here is 500 million yuan. Once you have completed the job, I will give you the other half."

If she remembers correctly, this man charges 500 million yuan for a job. Since she is asking him to kill two people, then it will be a total of 1 billion yuan.

Right now, she only has the 500 million yuan Wei Hongyi had given her. As for the other 500, she will use her cheques from her last two modeling sessions and make a few calls.

The man licks the front of his teeth as he makes a suckling sound. Setting the fishing pole down, he turns to look at Ning Mei.

"Usually my clients pay me in full in advance, but because I am in a good mood today, I will give you until tomorrow to pay the remaining money."

His words fell as he takes the card from Ning Mei. He looks down at it and slightly leans sideways against the metal rail.

"If you can’t, I will take your life in exchange."

He didn’t care if his spiteful words scared the woman in place. He leisurely puts the bankcard in his pocket and kept his eyes on her in a nonchalant way.

"Anything else?"

Ning Mei was rooted to the ground in fear of what he said. Even the hairs on her body that stood on ends have not return to their original position. She could not believe that this person did not give her time and even dare to threaten her.

Slowly biting her lower lips, she tells herself to remain calm. This is an once in a lifetime chance since Chu Li Xiang could not finish the job. As of right now, she can only depend on this man. One small mistake from her and she knows that he will not hesitate to end her life.

She takes a deep breath and reach inside her handbag again. Taking out a yellow envelope, she hands it over to the man.

"I accept your conditions. As long as you can kill the two people in this envelope, I will bring you the remaining money tomorrow."

The man shrugs one shoulder and takes the envelope. He opens the seal to see who his targets are, but Ning Mei’s next words made his movements stop.

"Nie Chen, I hope you don’t fail me like that bastard, Chu Li Xiang."

The homeless looking man name Nie Chen shifts his gaze from the envelope to Ning Mei. His dark pupils seemed to have darken and the aura around him turned colder than the ocean breeze.
