As the Snow Festival approached, Xiao Yun felt an inexplicable flutter in his heart, as if something ominous was about to happen.
What exactly would occur, Xiao Yun could not tell, but he understood that his premonitions were often accurate. He had a similar feeling on his way to Panlong Mountain, which preceded the death of Lu Jiutang.
Was someone going to die again this time?
Xiao Yun knew that if it weren't someone particularly close to him, he wouldn't have such a foreboding sense.
Who could that person be? His first thought was of Long Yan.
He understood Long Yan's temperament—impulsive and fierce. If the Military Agent from the Island Nation were to target him during the Snow Festival, she would undoubtedly rush to take action.
Once she revealed her identity, would those agents let her go?
Sigh, this fiery woman really shouldn't have come to the Island Nation.
Xiao Yun took out his phone and immediately dialed Long Yan. "Where are you?" he asked.
"I'm at the office in Sunshine Mall, Xiao Yun. What's up?" she replied.
"I need to come see you; I want to discuss something important!" he said.
"Sure, come over. I'll be waiting for you!" she responded.
Xiao Yun drove his Red Bentley directly to Sunshine Mall.
Upon arriving at Long Yan's office, she closed the door and smiled, asking, "Did you miss me, Xiao Yun? Looking for an excuse to see me?"
Ever since their relationship had deepened, even Long Yan herself was surprised by how her personality had changed. If she went a few days without seeing him, she felt an emptiness inside.
She secretly questioned herself at times, "Long Yan, what is wrong with you? Are you still the leader of the Dragon Team?"
Upon hearing Long Yan's words, Xiao Yun's face showed no trace of a smile, and she silently stared at her; this expression startled Long Yan.
Long Yan put away her cute demeanor and asked somewhat nervously, "Xiao Yun, what exactly happened?"
Xiao Yun shook her head and said, "Nothing has happened, but I need to tell you that the Snow Festival is coming soon."
Long Yan replied, "I know, the Snow Festival in Sapporo is in three days, and the so-called Heart-Cleansing Pearl will also make its appearance."
Xiao Yun said, "I want you to bring Cold as Ice back to Huaxia in advance."
"Why?" Long Yan asked in surprise.
Xiao Yun sighed and said, "I have a feeling that someone very close to me might get into trouble during the Snow Festival. The person I'm most worried about is you. You have to understand that there will be a lot of people that day, and the island nation will definitely have a large number of agents set up around."
Long Yan said, "That's exactly why I can't leave your side."
Xiao Yun replied, "After obtaining the Heart-Cleansing Pearl, we will have a way to escape, but you..."
Long Yan interjected, "As long as nothing happens to you, neither I nor the Dragon Team members will take action. The Island Nation agents won't randomly kill innocents, right?"
Once this woman decides on something she wants to do, not even eight oxen could pull her back. Xiao Yun knew her personality all too well.
"Fine, you and your Dragon Team members can go, but no matter what happens, don't act rashly. Otherwise, even I will be dragged down by you!" Xiao Yun's words were clearly a warning to Long Yan.
Long Yan also realized the seriousness of the situation. She understood how powerful this peculiar person in front of her was. After pondering for a moment, she said, "Alright, I'll listen to you. On the day of the Snow Festival, I'll wait for you at a hotel near Chiba Airport with Cold as Ice. Then we can fly back to Huaxia together!"
Only then did a smile appear on Xiao Yun's face as she said, "Good, that's the best plan!"
After resolving Long Yan's situation, Xiao Yun immediately made another call to invite Drunken Flower Beauty and Haruko Hayakawa over. She warned both of them that on the day of the Snow Festival, their Drunken Dragon Gang and Three Immortal Sisters Sect disciples should not go to watch the Ski Competition she would participate in; they should just stay home and watch it on live television instead.
For a moment, both Floral Beauty Jade and Haruko Hayakawa were puzzled by what Xiao Yun meant, and they asked in unison, "Why?"
Xiao Yun replied, "Don't ask why; you'll understand after the event. In short, on the day of the Ski Competition, no matter what happens to me, none of you should interfere."
Seeing Xiao Yun's cold expression, Second Girl nodded and said, "Alright, we will listen to you!"
At this point, Xiao Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. At noon, Long Yan treated Xiao Yun and the others to a meal at the hotel.
When they returned to the inn, Boss Lady greeted them with a smile and said, "Long San, I heard that in three days you will participate in the Snow Festival's Ski Competition?"
Upon hearing Boss Lady's words, Xiao Yun was momentarily taken aback. This woman was quite well-informed; Fire Phoenix had just notified her, so how did she know?
Even if she had her connections within Paradise Beauty Club, the news shouldn't spread that quickly.
Xiao Yun squinted her eyes and looked at the charming and cute Boss Lady, smiling as she asked, "Tofu Xishi, where did you get this information?"
Boss Lady giggled and replied, "Guess!"
Come on, do you think I'm a worm in your stomach? How could I possibly guess?
Xiao Yun shook her head and said, "I can't guess."
Boss Lady said, "It was Drunken Lady who told me!"
Why would Drunken Lady share this news with Boss Lady?
In an instant, Xiao Yun understood. Drunken Lady informed Boss Lady so that she could pass the information on to Wei Qinghe from Jizhu Hall.
Wei Qinghe would definitely take action if the island side wanted to target Xiao Yun; as soon as he acted, he would surely fall under the gunfire of Island Nation Agents.
Drunken Lady had already learned from Xiao Yun about his relationship with Wei Qinghe. Her intention was to use Island Nation Agents to eliminate Wei Qinghe and help Xiao Yun vent her anger.
In fact, her actions were completely unnecessary. According to Wei Qinghe's calculations, it wouldn't be long before he learned about Xiao Yun's participation in the Ski Competition at the Snow Festival.
Of course, Xiao Yun understood the Drunken Lady's feelings. However, without the Island Nation Agent's intervention, Xiao Yun could handle Wei Qinghe himself on that day.
Such a person was a great menace to Huaxia and should not be allowed to remain in this world.
"Tofu Xishi, have you informed Wei Ge about this news?" Xiao Yun asked with a smile.
"Not yet. However, he is quite well-informed; he will find out soon enough without me reporting it to him. By the way—" Boss Lady changed the subject and said, "Dragon Three Younger Brother, it's really unfortunate that I won't be able to watch your Ski Competition on the day of the Snow Festival!"
Upon hearing Boss Lady's words, Xiao Yun was slightly taken aback and asked, "Why not?"
Boss Lady replied, "I plan to return to Huaxia on the day of the Snow Festival; after all, my roots are in Huaxia!"
Xiao Yun understood what Boss Lady meant; her mission here was complete. Moreover, as a double agent, she truly did not want to witness Wei Qinghe and the Drunken Lady fighting over the Heart-Cleansing Pearl on that day, as she had feelings for both sides.
This Boss Lady was indeed a clever person.
Back in her bedroom, Xiao Yun sat cross-legged quietly on the bed to meditate. For some reason, the ominous feeling in her heart grew stronger and stronger...
