Chapter 1974: Silver Spider

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

If she was asked about the source of the medicinal wine, Qiao Qiang would have to continue to play the role of being a “descendant of a gifted doctor” and being in possession of a “secret prescription handed down from his ancestors”.

The news of Zhang Chengs disappearance had spread throughout the city. Even Bella had sent a note to Qiao Mei, telling her to be careful. Bella was concerned that major changes were coming up in Sky City.

Bella even sent two beautiful women to Qiao Mei’s house to protect her. Both women wore silver badges and were counted among the most highly skilled assassins in Bella’s teams.

“Stop there! Who are you?” Da Dong asked as he looked coldly at the two women in front of him.

Yin Xing did not say anything and just showed Da Dong the silver badge on her shoulder. Da Dong immediately knew that this was one of Bella’s team members, but without Qiao Mei e s permission, no one was allowed to enter the villa. This was the rule!

“You didn’t make an appointment in advance and the lady of the house didn’t tell us that there would be guests today. Please wait here. I’m going in to check with her,” Da Dong said sternly.

“Wait? For how long?” Yin Xing asked impatiently.

“Until the lady of the house allows you in,” Da Dong said arrogantly. He had never met such a person before. She wanted to barge into a house without an invitation from the owner. This “Spider Rose” organization did not seem to have any discipline!

“Hey, hey, hey! Guys, don’t get angry at each other. My apologies, Big Brother. My younger sister has a quick temper. Please go and check with the lady of the house. We are only here on our superior’s orders,” Yin Yue said as she hurriedly put some distance between Yin Xing and Da Dong.

“Wait here.” After saying that, Da Dong went into the house to check with Qiao Mei. She nodded and asked Da Dong to bring the two women to the study. Then, she went to change her clothes before going over to meet them.

Yin Yue and Yin Xing simply stood in the middle of the study and waited for Qiao Mei to arrive. When Qiao Mei entered the room, she had a shock as it almost looked like there were two wooden mannequins in the room.

“You don’t have to be so solemn. Take a seat and let’s have a chat,” Qiao Mei said as she waved her hand.

“You must be Miss Pu Nan. We’re Bella’s subordinates. My name is Yin Yue and this is Yin Xing. In the coming days, apart from the time when you’re sleeping and in the toilet, we’ll be by your side at all times,” Yin Yue said with a smile.

It was such a coincidence that Yin Yue and Yin Xing had the same characters in their names as Qiao Mei’s children. Although it might be fate that brought them together, she would not have any privacy if they stayed by her side at all times.

“You can take a break when we are all in this house. You don’t have to be with me all the time,” Qiao Mei said.

“No, this is Bella’s order. We can’t disobey Bella’s orders,” Yin Xing said as she looked at Qiao Mei sternly.

“But shouldn’t you be taking orders from me now?” Qiao Mei asked.

Yin Xing and Yin Yue looked at each other and said, “Yes, you are our boss now. We will listen to you.”

“So my order is for you to do your own things when you’re here. You can just tell the helper if there’s something you feel like eating, just like Da Dong and the rest. However, if you want her to cook particular dishes for you, you have to pay her for the extra work. I’ll cover the cost of the ingredients,” Qiao Mei said.

In the past, Da Dong and the rest had very simple meals. They ate whatever the helper cooked and it was usually the leftover dishes from Xia Zhe’s meals. They did not get any choice at all.

Xia Zhe was very seldom at home. He spent a lot of time in the office or on business trips to various cities in Country M. Out of the four bodyguards, two of them would accompany Xia Zhe at any one time, while the other two would be on standby at home.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was inevitable that Xia Zhe did not pay any attention to such details. It was only after Qiao Mei moved in that the four bodyguards had better meals. Moreover, they had a pay increase, so they could afford to pay the helper to make all kinds of delicious food for them.

“Wow, I never expected that Miss Pu Nan would provide us with such a nice working environment! We used to only eat hardtack when we went on missions!” Yin Yue said aggrievedly.

“Hardtack? Why do you eat such things? Don’t the other clients prepare food for you?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“They are not as nice as you, Miss Pu Nan. We’re the Silver Spiders. People who can afford to hire Silver Spiders are either the ultra-rich or those important government officials. Their lives are in danger all the time. Even when they are sleeping, Yin Xing and I have to stand guard next to them. How do we have time to eat proper meals?” Yin Yue said..
