Shi Mu quickly took the opportunity to sneak to Shi Man’s side and smiled proudly. “Thank you for the five-year order Instructor Chu sent. Our Shi family will definitely work harder.”

Chu Yue was so angry that her face turned red, but she could not say a word. She could only snort coldly and turn around to follow Lu Jun.

Shi Man glanced at him and said indifferently, “Aren’t you hot?”

Only then did Shi Mu move his hand away from her shoulder. He coughed dryly and said, “Sister! That move of yours was too cool! Can you teach me?”

“I can’t teach you.” Shi Man couldn’t be bothered with him and continued to walk forward expressionlessly.

Shi Mu chased after her unwillingly and continued to beg aggrievedly, “Then how did you learn how to use a gun? You can tell me, right?”

Only then did Shi Man stop and look at him indifferently. Under Shi Mu’s increasingly expectant gaze, she slowly revealed, “I trained with a toy gun. Do you need a toy gun too?”

He wanted to ask Shi Man what kind of toy gun could be so realistic, but Shi Man clearly did not want to talk to him anymore. She had already walked quickly into the villa while he was in a daze.

Compared to the hot weather outside, the villa was very cool.

After Butler Qi carefully prepared a cup of hot tea for each of them, he respectfully invited them into the cafeteria.

For the sake of the leader’s visit, the Shi family specially invited the top chef in the country to cook at home personally to satisfy Lu Jun.

However, it was obvious that the famous Chief Lu’s thoughts were not on these appetites at all. All he wanted was to make Shi Man his student so that he could retire in peace.

He wanted Shi Man to inherit his position.

However, in Shi Man’s opinion, this title that was sought after by tens of thousands of people in the capital was not as practical as the food in front of her.

What kind of person had she not assassinated in the past? Many high-ranking officials had died in her mission. She was not interested in these positions, but she had to admit that the position of the chief could indeed allow her to enjoy a lot of convenience.

The meal was filled with different thoughts. Although the Shi family had experienced many twists and turns in the day, the first day of receiving the leader was finally over.

Late at night, Shen Xian knocked on Shi Man’s door alone.

She knew that her daughter should not be asleep at this time, so she secretly ran over while everyone was resting.

Shi Man invited her to sit on the sofa and poured her a cup of tea with a smile. “Mom, you want to ask me about the proposal from Chief Lu, right?”

Shen Xian nodded and said, “Mom respects your decision.”

Shi Man couldn’t help but laugh. She stood up and moved to Shen Xian’s side again to sit down. She hugged her shoulder and said, “Mom, I’m not leaving. I still have very important things to do in G City.”

Shen Xian knew that to Shi Man, would definitely have a good future if she went with Chief Lu to the capital, but she did not want her daughter to suffer in the army.

No matter how high her military rank was, she still had to rise to the occasion at the critical moment. Moreover, Lu Jun could not retire for the time being.

It was obvious that Lu Jun would definitely send her to do a few especially dangerous missions to convince her on her arrival to the army.

Shen Xian did not know much about these matters, but she knew that the missions were definitely not something that ordinary people could complete easily. As a mother, how could she bear to let her daughter live such a life?

However, what she did not know was that Shi Man was already in the center of danger. In order to find Lin Si faster, her hand was already stained with the blood of many people.

It was rare for the mother and daughter to whisper warmly in the room. Later on, Shen Xian felt sleepy and slept in Shi Man’s room.

They all thought that this business would be a sure bet, and that Chief Lu would return to the capital soon. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened the next morning.

When Butler Qi went out in the morning, he habitually went to get the letters outside the door. However, when he saw the long line of police cars outside the door, he was completely shocked and hurriedly went back to look for Shi Zhong.

When Shi Zhong heard him explain the situation, he forced himself to calm down and said, “Don’t panic first. None of us committed a crime. The police might be here to visit Chief Lu.”

Butler Qi also thought of this possibility on second thought. He quickly calmed down and recalled his panic just now. He immediately blushed shyly. “CEO Shi is right. Look how I forgot! Our family didn’t break the law. Why am I anxious!” However, although he said that, Butler Qi felt very flustered.

Chief Zheng quickly walked in with the police officers lined up behind him. When he saw Shi Zhong, his expression became even uglier. “I’m here specially to look for Shi Man. Can you ask her to come out.”

“Looking for Miss Shi?” Butler Qi asked in surprise. After being glared at by Chief Zheng, he immediately retracted his probing gaze and hurriedly ran upstairs to call for help.

Lu Jun, who had long heard the commotion, walked down the stairs accompanied by Chu Yue and her brother. He looked at the crowded police officers in the room expressionlessly and said, “Elder Zheng, what do you mean by this?”

After causing such a huge commotion, could there be dangerous criminals here?
