Chapter 79: This Woman Has the Qualities of a Female Lead

The thirty million dollars were swiftly transferred, and the female assassin anxiously watched Chen Luo.

Ive already transferred the money, can you let me go now?

Youre too naive. Did you really think I would spare the life of an assassin who came to kill me? Chen Luo looked at her with a mocking expression.

The womans expression turned immensely agitated. Youre not keeping your word.

Not keeping my word? Did I ever promise to let you go?

Chen Luo never said that he would let her go after receiving the three million dollars. The emotionally charged assassins movements aggravated her wound, causing her immense pain. If looks could kill, Chen Luo would have been torn to shreds by her gaze.

What do you want to let me go? she asked, holding her stabbed wound, desperate to live.

Seeing how much she wants to live, lets give her a chance. This assassin might prove useful if we keep her, Zhao Yingxuan suggested to Chen Luo.

Hearing Zhao Yingxuan s words, the assassin felt a glimmer of gratitude towards her.

Chen Luo considered for a moment, then nodded to Zhao Yingxuan .

Fine, well spare her life for now.

In fact, Chen Luo had been pondering something, the identity of this female assassin might not be as straightforward as it seemed.

Zhao Yingxuan , who wasnt known for her mercy, repeatedly urged him to spare the woman. This suggested something unusual.

Of course, Chen Luo didnt suspect Zhao Yingxuan of any wrongdoing, instead, he suspected that the assassin might be a key female character, and Zhao Yingxuan, influenced by the protagonists aura, was reluctant to kill her.

Female leads were also protected by the protagonists aura.

Looking at the appearance of this female assassin, Chen Luo rated her a 95 out of 100. Her Western features were a bonus, qualifying her as a potential female lead.

Whats your name? Chen Luo asked the assassin.

Stuart Elsa, she responded without hesitation, revealing her name.

Can you help me stop the bleeding? Elsa pointed to the wound on her abdomen.

Arent you ashamed to be a killer who fears death so much?

Chen Luos words struck a chord of shame in Elsa, but who said a killer couldnt fear death?

Lifting Elsa with one hand, he threw her into the villas living room and tossed her a first aid kit.

Bandage your wound yourself.

Elsa silently disinfected and bandaged her wound.

My dear has spared your life. How do you plan to repay him? Zhao Yingxuan loomed over Elsa with a commanding presence.

Elsa was in tears, grappling with the thought of having to repay him. Although she wasnt killed, it didnt mean she was let off the hook.

I have nothing left now, she confessed, having given all her money to Chen Luo.

No, you are not completely destitute. Zhao Yingxuan brandished the dagger, tracing it over Elsas body, instilling fear in her. This woman, who had just helped her and convinced Chen Luo to spare her, might not be as benevolent as she seemed.

With a swift motion, Elsas clothes were sliced open, revealing her body. She quickly covered herself, looking at Zhao Yingxuan with a mix of embarrassment and anger.

Your beauty itself is a form of value, isnt it? Zhao Yingxuan said.

Elsa, understanding the hidden meaning in Zhaos words, retorted angrily, Dont even think about it.

While Westerners were often more open-minded, it didnt mean everyone was, and Elsa was one of the exceptions. So far, she hadnt been with any man. Elsa didnt necessarily intend to keep herself for her wedding night, but she did want to give herself to a man she truly liked.

Think it over, your life is in my hands, Zhao Yingxuan said with a smile on her face. If Elsa easily agreed, it wouldnt be interesting.

Elsa, looking at Zhao Yingxuan so close to her, contemplated taking her hostage to escape. She didnt want to die, but staying here was an unknown danger. It might be worth the gamble.

Just as Elsa was about to make her move, she found the barrel of a gun pointed at her head. Her hand stretching towards Zhao Yingxuan froze. Lifting her head, Elsa saw Chen Luos indifferent face.

With a slap, Zhao Yingxuan knocked Elsa to the ground.

Do you know why I dared to get close to you? With my dear here, Im not afraid of you hurting me.

She dared to approach a killer because Chen Luo was there, trusting that he wouldnt let anyone harm her.

So, you were thinking of taking me hostage? I just persuaded Chen Luo to spare you, and this is how you repay kindness? Zhao Yingxuans face showed a cold ruthlessness.

Elsa, reeling from the slap, looked up with anger in her eyes. It was the first time she had ever been slapped in the face.

But her heart was gripped with fear. Would she die this time? Elsa regretted her actions. Why had she attempted the move? Success would have been great, but failure seemed to lead only to death.

What do you think I will do to you next? Zhao Yingxuan asked menacingly.

Just kill me then, Elsa said, closing her eyes.

It wasnt that she had accepted her fate or was no longer afraid of death. She just believed Zhao Yingxuan would surely kill her, leaving her only the path of awaiting death.

Heh, killing you would be too kind, Zhao Yingxuan scoffed.

She tied Elsa tightly with a rope and threw her into the same secret chamber where Xiao Qingxue had once been imprisoned. Elsa sighed in relief, not being killed meant there was still hope. However, she was unaware of what awaited her. If she had known, she might have preferred death.

Xiao Yongqiang, that old man, sent someone to kill you. He deserves to die, Zhao Yingxuan said with a cold glint in her eyes after imprisoning the female assassin.

Killing Xiao Yongqiang wouldnt be difficult. Chen Luo could easily have Chun Mei or Xia Lan handle it. Unless Xiao Yongqiang could find Ye Chen to protect him as a bodyguard, his death was certain. Now, even finding Ye Chen was impossible, as he was still detained, with the Luo family using their connections to ensure he stayed there for a while.

Xiao Yongqiang must die, but not now, Chen Luo said to Zhao Yingxuan .

I cant swallow this insult if we dont kill him, Zhao Yingxuan replied coldly, but then she came up with an idea for revenge.
