Chapter 137 - Losing Both Life and Money

Fan Chengqi looked at him for a while before taking a sip of beer and saying lazily, "If you can get on Quan Family's good side, not only will you get through this, but you'll have even more benefits in the future."

"You need to know that within the Imperial Clan now, only a limited few, like His Majesty the Emperor, the Empress, the Princess, and the Grand Princess, are a bit stronger than the Four Great Noble Families. The rest of the Imperial Clan, every single one of them, can't compare to the Four Great Noble Families."

Fan Chengcai finished the last of his grilled oysters, licked his fingers, and said, "I'm sleepy, Big Brother. See you tomorrow."

Fan Chengcai left the gate of the villa where Quan Caiwei lived and went straight back to his own villa.

His villa wasn't too far or too close to Quan Caiwei's, with two other villas in between.

Although they were all on Fan Family's land, the straight-line distance was probably about a kilometer.

He didn't take a car, but walked quietly alone on the grass.

The setting sun shone from the west, stretching his shadow long.

His back looked somewhat lonely.

Quan Caiwei stood at her bedroom window, watching Fan Chengcai's receding figure, and shook her head.

She could tell that Fan Chengcai was interested in her, but he wasn't her type.

However, Fan Chengcai's sense of propriety was too strong, so Quan Caiwei didn't dislike him. On the contrary, she thought it would be nice to be ordinary friends.

She stood at the window, watching the sunset, round as an orange plate, slowly sink below the horizon.

Finally, it was dark.

Quan Caiwei left the window and said to her servants, "I want to take a bath. Prepare my things, and close the door tightly when you leave."

The servants bowed in unison and said, "Yes, Young Miss."

...

Quan Caiwei was too excited during the day, and thinking that she was going home tomorrow, she finally relaxed on this last day and ate a lot of barbecue.

The ingredients were actually provided by the Quan Family, and the Fan Family provided the barbecue sauce. It tasted so good!

So she was sleepy after taking a bath.

She had been using the Quantum Optical Brain's virtual display to read a few Star Network novels she was following, but after only a few pages, she fell asleep.

Soon, the Quantum Optical Brain's virtual display also turned off automatically.

The bedroom was plunged into darkness.

The entire Fan Family Manor was also plunged into deep silence, seemingly even quieter than the previous days.

Ye Shijie, Song Mingqian, and Li Fu were on duty for the first half of the night.

Xia Chujian and Ping Qiong went to sleep first.

At two in the morning, Xia Chujian and Ping Qiong got up to take over, and Ye Shijie, Song Mingqian, and Li Fu went to sleep.

Ye Shijie gestured to them, "Everything is normal. Last night, four more hours, and this mission will be over."

Xia Chujian nodded and set up her Judicator No. 7 Sniper Rifle.

Ping Qiong yawned and lay down in the observer's position, her eyelids unable to stay open.

Xia Chujian didn't care.

Anyway, Quan Caiwei's position wouldn't change, and she didn't need an observer.

Xia Chujian held the sniper rifle, aiming at the direction of Quan Caiwei's bedroom.

She also pulled down the visor on her helmet, looking at Quan Caiwei's bedroom.

Through the helmet visor's far-infrared thermal imaging system, she could see through the walls.

But before long, Xia Chujian suddenly found that she could no longer see inside the walls.

She rubbed her eyes, wiped the visor on her helmet, and the scope of the sniper rifle, then put on the visor and looked at Quan Caiwei's bedroom through the scope of the sniper rifle.

She still couldn't see anything.

Everything was clearly normal just now.

Before, through the helmet visor, she could clearly see the dark bedroom, the red figure circled by the far-infrared night vision system, sleeping soundly on that four-poster bed.

But now, she could only see the dark outer wall, and could no longer see Quan Caiwei inside.

Not only Quan Caiwei's bedroom, Xia Chujian discovered that the entire villa building seemed to have suddenly activated some kind of shielding system.

She could no longer see inside any of the rooms.

Xia Chujian felt a little uneasy and said to Ping Qiong, "Cai Jie, is the far-infrared night vision function of your helmet visor still working?"

Ping Qiong, still half-asleep, took off her helmet and handed it to Xia Chujian.

Xia Chujian's lips twitched. She took Ping Qiong's helmet and used her visor to look at those detached villas of the Fan Family.

It was still the same, she couldn't see what was happening inside the walls.

Had the Fan Family activated their security system in advance? That was understandable.

Who would want to be under someone else's constant surveillance all the time?

But those noble people were probably different.

In their daily lives, they were surrounded by many servants and domestic helpers, so they should be used to this kind of watertight security situation, right?

Xia Chujian thought to herself that she couldn't accept it.

She needed personal privacy space, a lot of privacy space.

But in this case, her surveillance here had become useless.

Because she couldn't see what was happening inside the villas, no one outside would know what was happening there.

Unless the internal surveillance was still running.

But Xia Chujian felt that even the helmet visor was useless, so the internal surveillance was probably in a bad way.

So the question was, why?

Why was the Fan Family's security system activated on the last night, not allowing everyone to "monitor"?

Xia Chujian thought for a while and notified the Quan Family Security Personnel, telling them that the villa where the Tulip Noble Daughter lived seemed to have a shielding system.

But what she didn't know was that after her message was sent, it was intercepted by an on-duty member of the Quan Family Security.

...

At this time, inside the villa that could not be seen from the outside, the floor of a utility room on the first floor suddenly opened, revealing a circular hole.

Fan Chengcai crawled out of the hole.

He had come through the tunnel.

No matter how careful the Quan Family Security was, they had not noticed that there were very secret tunnels dug between the more important villas on the Fan Family's territory.

And even the Fan Family's own security control room didn't know about these tunnels.

Only Fan Bowei, Fan Chengqi, and Fan Chengcai knew about them.

This was originally the last escape route that the Fan Family had left for themselves.

Fan Chengcai thought that it had indeed become his last escape route.

Coming out of the utility room, Fan Chengcai was covered in a black night suit.

This was a special jumpsuit made of nanomaterials, which was said to have a certain refractive effect on light and could be regarded as an "invisibility suit".

Of course, it didn't really achieve invisibility, but it was relative.

Moreover, the invisibility effect was particularly good in the dark, and even those far-infrared thermal imaging perspective systems couldn't see him.

Because it not only refracted optics, but also shielded the body's heat.

As he walked upstairs, the Quan Family Security Personnel watching the corridor outside the door through the monitors did not notice his existence.

Fan Chengcai smoothly arrived at the door of Quan Caiwei's bedroom, took out a special key, and gently opened the door.

He pushed the door open, his heart pounding.

Then he closed the door gently.

The room was eerily quiet.

Quan Caiwei's bedroom was the master bedroom of this villa, a suite.

Entering, there was a small reception room.

Inside the reception room was another room, which was the real bedroom.

Fan Chengcai tiptoed through the reception room and came to the door of the inner room.

Because it was an inner door, it was usually not locked.

Fan Chengcai gently pushed, and the door opened.

In the four-poster bed in the bedroom, Quan Caiwei was sleeping quietly, like an elegant Tulip.

Fan Chengcai felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling and clamoring.

He was so excited that he almost had tinnitus.

In his wildest dreams, he had never imagined that he could be in the same bedroom with a Noble Lady of the Quan Family! He took a deep breath and came to Quan Caiwei's bedside.

Just as he was about to get into bed, he seemed to suddenly remember something, patted his forehead in annoyance, unzipped his jumpsuit, revealing his sturdy upper body.

Then he pulled out a wet wipe from the pocket inside the jumpsuit, wanting to cover Quan Caiwei's face.

The wet wipe was soaked with a liquid that could make people faint instantly.

Quan Caiwei suddenly woke up.

She didn't know what was happening, but she subconsciously kicked out.

Fan Chengcai had just stretched out his hand, not yet close to Quan Caiwei's face, when he encountered Quan Caiwei's swift counterattack.

Her kick landed right on his wrist, and his hand loosened, dropping the wet wipe.

Quan Caiwei rolled and crawled off the other side of the bed.

She ran around the bedroom in her pajamas, screaming for help.

Fan Chengcai had been extremely nervous.

But now he was amused by Quan Caiwei's actions.

He said slowly, "...So even a Noble Lady, when attacked, will scream and cry like an ordinary woman, without any grace..."

Quan Caiwei didn't expect Fan Chengcai to dare to force himself on her.

Where the hell were all the Quan Family Security Personnel?! Because she was sleeping, she had taken off the Quantum Optical Brain on her wrist, so she couldn't even trigger an automatic alarm.

But Quan Caiwei was not without resources.

She took off the bracelet she never took off her wrist and pressed the switch on it.

The bracelet immediately deformed into a small pistol.

Quan Caiwei pointed at Fan Chengcai and said sternly, "Fan Chengcai! Don't say I didn't warn you! My Quan Family is not to be trifled with! Leave now, and I'll pretend nothing happened! If you insist on staying, you'll know the consequences your Fan Family can't afford!"

Fan Chengcai laughed loudly, now completely calm and composed.

He stood in front of the bed, raised his hands, and said, "That pistol of yours can't even kill a bird, and you want to shoot me? You know, I'm a Gene Evolver, Rank B peak."

This meant that ordinary bullets were indeed ineffective against him.

If he hadn't wanted her to be willing, he would have used Mental Strength to attack Quan Caiwei and completely subdue her. Why would he need to go to so much trouble?

But Quan Caiwei was not willing.

She held the small and exquisite pistol in her hand, aimed at Fan Chengcai, and fired three shots in a row!

Bang! Bang! Bang! After three shots, Fan Chengcai was still standing there unharmed.

His movements were extremely swift, and he dodged all three bullets.

However, of the three bullets he dodged, two hit the wall, and one continued forward, pierced through the bedroom curtains, shattered the bedroom window, and exploded completely outside the window.

Seeing that Fan Chengcai was unharmed, Quan Caiwei, in a fit of anger, continued to fire.

She fired four more shots, emptying all the bullets in the small pistol in one go.

As a result, more bullets hit the window, creating multiple holes in it.

...

At the same moment, Xia Chujian, holding her sniper rifle, was still trying to observe the villa that was causing her far-infrared thermal imaging system to fail.

Tonight's night sky was particularly dark, with a large patch of dark clouds covering the starry sky tightly, not letting through even a sliver of moonlight.

The straight-line distance from her to the detached villa where Quan Caiwei lived was five hundred meters.

That villa was like a castle shrouded in darkness, exuding an air of mystery.

But before long, a small red spark suddenly burst into Xia Chujian's field of vision.

Xia Chujian's expression slightly tightened.

That was the firework of a bullet exploding! Something happened! Xia Chujian's professional hunter instincts quickly took over, and she immediately turned on the camera function of her helmet visor, looking through the sniper scope again.

She had to record these strange things and then analyze what was going on.

This time, she noticed a change in the view through the sniper scope!

Before, she could only see the dark walls and windows, unable to see any movement inside.

But now, it was as if someone had chiseled a few holes in the windows! The shielding that prevented thermal imaging had completely failed on the windows!

The visor on Xia Chujian's helmet was like a telescope, and now she could clearly see the scene inside Quan Caiwei's bedroom.

At this moment, the blood in Xia Chujian's whole body was also clamoring! Boiling! Through the sniper scope, she saw someone who shouldn't be there—Fan Chengcai!

At this time, Fan Chengcai was already facing the direction of the window, and he was holding someone in his hand.

That person had their back to the window, and although she couldn't see their face, Xia Chujian knew it was Quan Caiwei.

Firstly, it was Quan Caiwei's bedroom, and secondly, she was familiar with Quan Caiwei's back view.

Fan Chengcai was now holding Quan Caiwei's entire face with his right hand, and the wet wipe in his right hand was taking effect, Quan Caiwei had already fainted.

Xia Chujian: "..."

She had not expected Fan Chengcai to be so "noble"!

He was both courting death and throwing away money! She was still wondering how their team would make a surprise attack and kill Fan Chengcai after Quan Caiwei left!

Now she didn't have to think about it, the two tasks of protecting Quan Caiwei and killing Fan Chengcai were finally combined into one!

Xia Chujian's blood surged, and she immediately decided to take action.

At this time, Fan Chengcai's left hand was tearing at Quan Caiwei's pajamas.

Quan Caiwei was only wearing pajamas to begin with, and in a few strokes, Fan Chengcai tore them open, revealing her naked upper body.

Xia Chujian quickly rotated the sniper scope, setting the coordinates.

Click!

Xia Chujian ejected a magazine.

A sniper bullet with a diameter of 8mm, under the effect of the silencer, silently shot out of the Judicator No. 7 Sniper Rifle's barrel, flying towards the bedroom where Quan Caiwei was.

Fan Chengcai was also too excited to think at this time.

Quan Caiwei's graceful body appeared before him, and her struggles had completely lost their strength.

She was going to be his! The Quan Family Noble Lady was going to be Fan Chengcai's! All his attention was focused on Quan Caiwei, and even his senses as a Gene Evolver, which were more sensitive than ordinary people, were dulled at this time.

The next moment, before he could take off his pants, a sniper bullet with armor-piercing capabilities, like a grim reaper reaping life, broke through the window and shot straight into his forehead, then blasted out of the back of his head, shooting into a large landscape painting hanging on the other side of the bedroom.

Fan Chengcai's head was like a watermelon, smashed down by a ten-ton hammer, instantly exploding into a cloud of blood mist.

His hand loosened, and Quan Caiwei, who had been knocked unconscious, fell softly to the ground.

Then Fan Chengcai's headless corpse also crashed backward with a loud bang.

The second update is at one o'clock in the afternoon.
