A year passed without any news. In those days, communication was not well developed, and Ding Yan's mother could no longer bear it. She decided to take Ding Yan to Aodao.
However, upon arriving at the Ding Family, Ding Yan's mother discovered that Ding Yan's father had already remarried, and his new wife was the daughter of another prominent family in Aodao. When faced with the sudden appearance of the mother and daughter, Ding Yan's father pretended not to recognize them and ordered his men to drive them away.
Despairing, Ding Yan's mother left the Ding Family with her young daughter. At that time, Aodao was rife with gang activity, and as a foreign beauty with a child, she soon fell into the hands of street thugs. No one paid attention to little Ding Yan; her father denied her, and her mother was taken away. Alone on the streets of Aodao, she cried bitterly until a couple from Huaxia took her in.
But this Huaxia couple did not intend to adopt her; instead, they sold her. By the age of just four, Ding Yan had been shuffled around multiple times before being taken by members of the Black Sky Assassins Organization and enrolled in their training camp for assassins. She remained there until she turned eighteen, learning various murder skills. Afterward, she spent a few years shadowing an assassin before finally becoming an A-level assassin herself.
Ding Yan's background was indeed tragic. Her father was still alive and had become a prominent figure in Huaxia and Aodao society. The last time Ding Yan attended a party in Aodao, she encountered him. It was said that he had divorced several times since then, and his current wife was even younger than Ding Yan. When they met, although Ding Yan recognized him, he did not recognize his own daughter.
Ding Yan initially thought about killing him but ultimately restrained herself. Over the years, she made annual trips to Aodao primarily to search for her mother's whereabouts. However, after twenty years of searching through the vast sea of people, finding her mother felt like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Now, her mother had become the only concern and regret in Ding Yan's heart. If she could find her mother—regardless of whether she was alive or dead—Ding Yan felt she could finally find peace.
As for why Ding Yan was being hunted down, this reason surprised Jiang Chen even more. A month ago, Ding Yan received an assignment to assassinate an American. Assassins typically do not question their orders; it is simply part of their code. So when she received this assignment, she approached it as she always had.
An A-level assignment indicated that the target posed little threat. For someone like Ding Yan now, an A-level task was manageable. However, what she did not expect was that this seemingly ordinary A-level assignment would plunge her into chaos. She could no longer stay in the United States and had to seek refuge in Huaxia.
The target of this assignment was a freelance journalist. During the assassination attempt, the journalist's wife and daughter unexpectedly appeared. Seeing this harmonious family—especially the adorable little girl—caused Ding Yan to hesitate and ultimately abandon the mission.
In that little girl, she saw a reflection of her own childhood. Although she was an assassin, her heart had not completely turned to stone. She did not want that little girl to lose her father. At the same time, she found it strange that this journalist was just an ordinary person with no real threat; even a C-level assassin would have sufficed for such a target.
Curious about him, Ding Yan disguised herself and approached the journalist. However, just as they were getting acquainted, another assassin shot the journalist in the chest. Shocked and horrified, Ding Yan rushed forward as he lay dying and managed to hear him whisper a cloud storage account and password before he passed away.
