147 Coming of the Storm
After a long pause, Qiao Jing finally relented and agreed to let Qiao Yue go to Sister Lin’s place alone.
“Be careful,” Qiao Jing said suddenly as Qiao Yue was about to leave.
Qiao Yue turned to look at him, but Qiao Jing had already buried himself in the documents he was reading.
Just as Qiao Yue had wished, the Qiao family chauffeur drove her. The car arrived at Sister Lin’s apartment building and Sister Lin was already waiting for Qiao Yue at the entrance.
The driver wanted to help Qiao Yue upstairs, but Qiao Yue declined.
Qiao Yue heaved a sigh of relief after she watched the driver leave.
“Sister Lin, is the equipment ready?” Qiao Yue asked.
“Yes, it’s ready. Team A has enough weapons. Don’t worry about it, Master Yue.”
Sister Lin was her teacher at school but her position in the organization was below Qiao Yue’s. Therefore, whenever they were on a mission, Sister Lin would call her “Master Yue” like everyone else.
Qiao Yue nodded and was wheeled into another car by Sister Lin.
Sister Lin updated Qiao Yue with the organization’s deployment around Yayi as she drove. Qiao Yue looked out the window at the scenery that was quickly passing by as she tapped her fingers on her seat.
“You said that there are only two people deployed at Linchuan Road?” Qiao Yue asked casually.
“Yes, Militant and Rose are on guard there.” Sister Lin replied.
Qiao Yue was quite familiar with these two people. They had worked together several times, and they were both people who would risk their lives for missions. Did Godfather really want to kill Trand by sending these two here? Could she have guessed wrong? Qiao Yue couldn’t figure out what the Godfather was thinking.
The car soon arrived at the main entrance of Yayi. Qiao Yue left her wheelchair in the car, got up, straightened her clothes and walked in alone.
The organization had a rule that the person who received the mission would be responsible for it till the end. If anyone else interfered during the mission, their life or death would have nothing to do with the organization. This mission had nothing to do with Sister Lin, so Sister Lin didn’t need to interfere.
Yayi felt different today. Even the waiters and waitresses looked serious.
Chu Jia’s assistant had been waiting in the office for a long time. The moment she saw Qiao Yue, she seemed to have found her savior and mumbled non-stop.
“Brother Yue, you’re finally here. There are a lot of people in the lobby who look like gangsters. I was totally lost after my boss left.”
Qiao Yue chuckled. “What? You’ve never seen gangsters here?”
The assistant nodded quickly. “I have, but they weren’t as scary as the ones today. They look like they are going to kill someone. And my boss left, so I’m a little scared!”
“It’s okay, don’t be scared. I won’t let anything happen here.” Qiao Yue comforted.
The assistant nodded. It was not her first day working here, and she had been through a lot with Sister Chu. However, she only realized today that there were situations that made her so scared that she could not speak.
Qiao Yue took her things and went into the bathroom to dress up. She had mastered many skills to survive her missions in the past.
After putting on the wig, Qiao Yue started to put on her makeup. Although she couldn’t replicate all the details, under dim lights at night, and with the other party not too familiar with Chu Jia, she could still pass of as her.
When Qiao Yue came out of the bathroom, the assistant was shocked.
“Sister, Sister Chu?” the assistant exclaimed.
Qiao Yue smiled and said, “I’m your Brother Yue.”
“Brother Yue?” The assistant was even more shocked as she looked Qiao Yue up and down.
“Brother Yue, you really look like Sister Chu! You’re so beautiful!” The assistant’s words were full of sincere praise.
Qiao Yue was a little dazed at the assistant’s words. How long had it been since she last wore a girl’s clothes? These dresses were very beautiful, but they were inconvenient to move in. Moreover, she still had to maintain her image as a boy, so these dresses were really out of her reach.
Qiao Yue snapped back to reality and flicked the assistant’s forehead, pulling her back to reality.
Logically speaking, the assistant had been with Chu Jia so long and was used to Chu Jia’s face. However, the difference between the real Chu Jia and Qiao Yue’s Chu Jia was that Qiao Yue’s Chu Jia had a more heroic air about her. This was a mission that involved Qiao Yue’s life, so she went all out and made Chu Jia’s already attractive face even more flamboyant.
Qiao Yue didn’t bring the assistant and walked alone into the lobby of Yayi Club.
As soon as she arrived, Qiao Yue saw more than a dozen pairs of dark eyes looking at her. With just a casual glance, she noticed an “old acquaintance” sitting behind the sofa.
Trand had fully recovered after a few months. He saw “Chu Jia” walk up and stared at her with dark eyes.
