"Let me see, how much is the bounty on my head?" Su Chen squinted his eyes, looking carefully.
"A million? That's it?"
"Holy crap, you're insulting me!" Su Chen was visibly upset upon seeing the amount.
"This Song guy, not only is he an idiot, but he's also a miser! Only putting up a million-dollar bounty."
Su Chen was thoroughly displeased. Does he have any idea who I am?
Even if there were a bounty, it should start at a billion US dollars! What's the meaning of a mere million?
While infuriated, Su Chen casually accepted the task anyway.
Assassinating oneself, it's such a thrilling thing, I must be the first one to do this, right?
Su Chen shook his head slightly.
Everyone was unaware that his actions would cause such a huge sensation in the world.
Originally, many people had taken on the mission to assassinate Chu Yu, and even that freshly posted hit had a few takers.
But soon, these people were all stunned.
These assassination missions were not exclusive, they could be taken on simultaneously, and the reward would go to whoever completed the mission.
Therefore, next to each task, there would normally be a list of the names of those who had accepted it.
However, at this moment, a new name suddenly appeared on the list for two missions.
Falcon!
Not only that, behind this name, there was a bloody crown icon.
What this name and symbol represented, ordinary people might not recognize.
But how could these killer elites of the underworld be unaware!
So, when they saw this name, everyone's expressions changed.
Those who had accepted these two tasks immediately rushed to withdraw them.
Not only that, many sent emails to Falcon, giving a clear explanation, and the more timorous ones even paid a fee to apologize.
No helping it, the name Falcon to them was like a nightmarish entity, so provoking Falcon meant your days were numbered!
Moreover, they quickly contacted their friends and acquaintances, warning them not to accept these two tasks.
"Hey, I'm warning you guys, be careful when you take on tasks in the human world these days, or you might not even have a life left."
"What? Has something terrifying happened? Is there a horribly fearsome task?"
"No, has Falcon appeared again?"
"What? He's back!"
"Yes, he's back, and he's taken two tasks."
"I had accepted one of them too, but after seeing his name, I immediately backed out."
"Not only that, I even paid a fee to apologize to him."
"Damn, it scared me to death! If I had been any slower, I might not have had my life now."
"Crap, what task could have rattled Falcon? Is it an S-level task?"
"No, they're just two ordinary tasks, no idea why Falcon went nuts and took them."
"This is bad, now you've got me nervous. I better check to make sure I haven't taken any tasks this guy's on."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't even know how I'd die."
The assassins lurking in the shadows were all in motion.
No helping it, they were just too scared, Falcon was like the Demon King in their eyes.
And Su Chen, of course, had no idea that his casual move had caused such a stir.
But even if he did, he would have just scoffed at it.
After shutting down his computer, he lay down on his bed, ready to relax properly.
However, that's when his phone rang.
"Hey, boss, what's gotten into you, taking on two run-of-the-mill tasks?"
"Do you have any idea how many people you freaked out with that move?" The voice on the phone was agitated.
It was from Su Chen's good friend, codenamed Owl.
And Su Chen replied impatiently, "Damn it, you really are an Owl, staying awake all night, what are you doing?"
"Aren't you also awake?" Owl asked.
Ixxxx
Su Chen was speechless: "If you hadn't called, I'd have been asleep by now."
"Hehe, boss, have you been sleeping with your lady? Feeling blissful, huh?" Owl's laugh was exceedingly lewd.
Pah! Not just sleazy, downright excessive sleaziness!
"Well, to be strict, we ended up sleeping together. But if you really look at it, it doesn't count as sleeping together."
Su Chen sighed.
"What's going on, boss? You've got me all confused now," Owl said, puzzled.
"That's because time-wise, we were both going to sleep, but space-wise, she slept on her side, and I slept on mine."
Su Chen wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Oh, so sister-in-law kicked you out?" Owl gloated over Su Chen's misfortune.
After joking for a while, Su Chen suddenly said, "Help me check, who's trying to assassinate Chu Yu?"
"Damn it, that's my wife! Someone dares to make a move on her? They really must have a death wish!"
"Don't worry, I'll look into it right now," Owl said, "By the way, that idiot called Song Qing, do you want me to take care of him too?"
At this, Owl also laughed; he had never seen anyone dare to use their real name like that.
"Forget it, that moron isn't worth our time. You don't need to worry about this. Just help me find out who's after Chu Yu, okay?"
After chatting for a bit longer, Su Chen hung up the phone.
Then, he closed his eyes and drifted off to dreamland.
Meanwhile, Chu Yu, who had just taken a bath, found herself unable to fall asleep.
Thinking of what happened today, she was so angry that she clenched her teeth.
"Damned guy, I definitely have to get back at him!"
Chu Yu ground her little tiger teeth as she quickly thought up a plan, wondering how to punish him?
Soon, she wore a mischievous smile. Like a little demon, she chuckled triumphantly.
"Hehe, dare to mess with me?"
"Tomorrow I'll show you what regret looks like!"
It was clear she'd come up with a way to deal with Su Chen.
The next day, Su Chen, wearing slippers and smoking, walked into the living room. Seeing Chu Yu in her pajamas, his eyes lit up immediately.
"Wife, what a treat first thing in the morning, you're too good to me!"
Su Chen's eyes shone with delight.
Chu Yu, however, let out a shriek and immediately crossed her arms in defense.
Damn it, she had forgotten that this guy was still here!
Chu Yu clenched her teeth, but soon a sly smile appeared on her face.
"Hmph, enjoy your moment, let's see how I deal with you later!"
With that, she rolled her eyes at Su Chen, then hurriedly went back upstairs.
When she came down again, she was dressed in a casual outfit and carried two breakfasts with her.
The breakfast was light, consisting of millet porridge, eggs, and beef.
It wasn't much, but it was nutritionally complete.
"Eat up, and then get the hell to work!" Chu Yu said impatiently.
"Wow, wife, you're the best! I love you to death!" Su Chen was overjoyed to see there was even breakfast prepared.
"Stop right there!" Chu Yu glared at him, gritting her teeth, "I warn you, from now on, don't call me wife!"
"Alright, dear," Su Chen nodded.
You!
Chu Yu was infuriated, but she had to compromise, "How about this, in public, you can't use those words."
"Otherwise, don't blame me for turning on you."
"Alright, I got it," he responded.
"But we're at home now, it's not too much to call you wife here, right?"
Su Chen said, smiling gleefully, then picked up the bowl of millet porridge.
Seeing this, a little smirk appeared on Chu Yu's face, filled with excitement.
Because in that millet porridge, she had mixed a special ingredient.
That ingredient was, of course, a laxative!
She had thought it through yesterday and finally decided to make Su Chen have diarrhea.
Let's see if he still has any strength left then!
Just the thought of him weak in the knees made Chu Yu want to laugh.
As for Su Chen, who was about to eat the porridge, he squinted his eyes.
As someone who had survived knife-edge situations, he could tell with one sniff that there was something off with this bowl of porridge.
