Chapter 520: A Dangerous Job
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi walked out of the jail and Little Six came up to her. Noticing his worried look, Tang Xi suddenly had a sense of foreboding. She pursed her lips and remained silent. But after a while, she couldn’t help asking, “Did something bad happen?”
Little Six nodded solemnly. “We can’t reach Mr. Seven. Young Master has gone to search for him, but hasn’t found him.”
Tang Xi was shocked. Lu Li went missing? What happened?
“Can you contact Qiao Liang?” Tang Xi walked out with Little Six and asked him.
Little Six shook his head. “Young Master has turned off his phone after telling me to take care of you. I think he must have gone to search for Mr. Seven.”
Tang Xi clenched her hands. She was supposed to stay with Qiao Liang at such a hard time, but now she couldn’t initiate the all-purpose skills. With her weak body, she would only be a burden to Qiao Liang even if she was by his side.
Now Tang Xi just wanted to be stronger. At least, she wouldn’t become Qiao Liang’s burden.
Tang Xi got into the car, looked at Little Six and said, “Let me know as soon as you get any information from Qiao Liang, understood?”
Little Six took a look at Tang Xi. He had thought Miss Tang would force him to take her to Young Master. He was relieved to see her being so rational.
Tang Xi closed her eyes and contacted the system, [Warm Prompt of the System: You have initiated your exclusive system 008.]
‘Can you help me find where Lu Li is?’
[008: I can only tell you which country he is in.]
That was better than knowing nothing about his whereabouts!

Tang Xi nodded. “Okay, tell me then!”
[008: Wait a minute.]
After a moment…
[008: Mexico.]
Tang Xi frowned. ‘Are you sure?’
[008: Yes.]
Tang Xi nodded, said ‘thank you’ and turned off the system. Then she looked at Little Six and asked with a frown, “Was Lu Li missing in Mexico?”
Little Six took a look at Tang Xi from the rear-view mirror and focused on driving. “Yes, he went missing around our No. 3 Base in Mexico. They only found his cellphone.”
Seeing Tang Xi fall into deep thoughts, Little Six continued, “Master guessed Mr. Seven had been captured and taken to the US by FBI.”
Tang Xi immediately shook her head. “No, they haven’t left Mexico. You should search in Mexico!”
Little Six glanced at her in surprise. “Miss Tang, how do you know this?”
Tang Xi took a deep breath. “You can contact Qiao Liang, can’t you?”
Little Six hesitated and Tang Xi suddenly straightened up, looked straight at Little Six and coldly said, “Now it’s not the time to hesitate. One minute too late, Lu Li will lose his life! Little Six, you know I’m different from common people, don’t you? So contact Qiao Liang for me as soon as possible!’
Little Six had planned to pretend to know nothing about Tang Xi’s secret, but now hearing her words, he wondered whether Miss Tang was actually a witch? Otherwise, how could she come back to life in another person’s body? She must be sensing where Mr. Seven was when she closed her eyes just now!
Little Six was really imaginative.
Little Six pursed his lips. “Yes, I can contact Young Master via computer.”
Tang Xi slight turned up the corners of her mouth, asked Little Six to pull over and let her drive the car. Little Six sat on the co-pilot seat and began to contact Qiao Liang with his computer. After quite a while, he said to Tang Xi, “Miss Tang, I’ve reached Young Master.”

Tang Xi gave him an admiring look. “Very good.”
Tang Xi put in an earpiece and Qiao Liang’s exhausted voice rang. It hurt Tang Xi to see him so tired, but with Little Six around, it was inconvenient for her to play lovey-dovey with Qiao Liang, so she just asked, “Where are you searching?”
Qiao Liang said, “We’re searching in a forest on the US-Mexican border. I think Lu Li might have been taken to the US.”
Tang Xi frowned. “No, Ah Liang, Lu Li is still in Mexico. There must be someplace you forgot. Think about it. Is there any place that you missed?”
Qiao Liang, “How are you sure he is still in Mexico?”
Tang Xi pursed her lips and said seriously, “You know why I became the present me, and why I suddenly popped up and saved you last time in France. For the same reason, I know Lu Li is still in Mexico.”
Qiao Liang fell into a long silence. Then he took a breath and ordered his men, “Keep searching here. Don’t miss any inch of the ground! Find Lu Li at any expense!”
Tang Xi smiled when she heard Qiao Liang’s order. Then Qiao Liang’s voice rang again. “Take care of yourself. Don’t get tired.”
Tang Xi said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. I have Little Six take care of me.”
In the hospital, Xiao Yao suddenly received a call, and the other side said, “There is a traitor in our organization. They kidnapped someone who they shouldn’t kidnap. Now we’ve got a task for you.”
Xiao Yao stood up. Yang Jingxian looked at him. “What’s up?”
Xiao Yao pursed his lips and said seriously, “Mom, I have a mission to perform. I have to go to Mexico now.”
Yang Jingxian frowned and looked surprised. “Why do you suddenly receive a mission? Aren’t you still on holiday?”
“We get tasks at any time.” Xiao Yao hugged Yang Jingxian. “Tell Dad I’ve left. Now I’m going to the airport.”
“Now?” Yang Jingxian said, “Why don’t you leave after having dinner?”
Xiao Yao released Yang Jingxian and said with a smile, “No, my colleagues are waiting for me.”
Yang Jingxian had no choice but to watch him leave. Xiao Yao said goodbye to Xiao Zhihe and left.
Yang Jingxian looked at his back and sighed. “I should have stopped him if I had known earlier what his job is about.”
His job was too dangerous.

Ruining Happily Ever After
Laia is pissed. When she kills off a fan favorite from her successful novel series, she elicits the anger of some chuunibyou god-child. As her ‘divine punishment’, she gets thrown into a world of her own making– literally. Waking up as the villain of a shitty CEO romance novel she wrote long ago, Laia has to satisfy the life wishes that character has. If she does, she can get out of this world and return to her own. If she doesn’t, she dies. Armed with a talking fox-cat-thing to navigate the system mechanics of her punishment, she’s ready to turn the place upside to get what she wants. She's also not opposed to having a little bit of fun in the process. The original protagonist is in love with her, the original love interest is thoroughly destroyed, and– if it wasn’t already obvious– the original storyline is up in flames. ⋅ ⋆ ⋅ ⋆ ⋅ One crappy romance novel was enough, but another? “I fucking completed everything that stupid system asked of me, so tell your idiot brother to bring me back to my world.” The handsome man languidly sitting on the throne sighed dramatically, “Unfortunately, father and mother heard about what he did to you. He’s currently under guard and won’t be able to get you out of here.” “Why didn’t your parents get me removed from here first before locking your brother up?" "They forgot,” he simply said. He showed a regretful expression. She knew it was bullshit. Her temples throbbed, “So what are you doing here?” A beautiful smile bloomed on his lips. It was enchanting, bewitching, and made her want to bash his face in. “I’m here to keep you company,” he winked, “My Empress.”God. She wanted to stab him in the heart just to shut him up. ▽▽▽ System but not really. Barebones shit. This book may end up reading like crack. You have been warned.

Ever since Aster’s mother died, home no longer feels like home.

She’s only been to the palace once, a memory she’s replayed countless times in her head, during her first fateful encounter with her fiancé. But when she comes face to face with Florian once more, he’s cold and apathetic; a far cry from the boy she used to dream of. As Aster struggles to come to terms with Florian’s new demeanour, life in the palace reveals more than it’s rose covered façade.
