Chapter 1249 - 1248: He Almost Killed the Little Boss’s Lover

Chapter 1249: Chapter 1248: He Almost Killed the Little Boss’s Lover

Inside the tent, Xia Xi’s emotions plunged into an abyss, tormented by an unprecedented sense of guilt.

She secretly regretted her initial impatience; had she not been so hasty, Xue Tong wouldn’t be in a coma now.

Xia Xi let her emotions spill out as she tightly held Xue Tong’s hand, silently praying, hoping nothing would happen to her...

...

Outside the tent, in the Ancient Tomb.

Han Shang stood in the corridor, his expression cold and aloof, as he spoke with a frosty emotion in his purple eyes, "Can you be sure?"

"Yes, Little BOSS..." Beckett, standing opposite, apologized sincerely, "Earlier, in my haste, I failed to recognize Miss Xue Tong; she is indeed the same Miss Gu who once helped Sicuro. This is truly my negligence."

In Beckett’s heart, Miss Gu left a deep impression. When he was ordered to pursue Kun, the traitor who harmed the old BOSS from the Xitai Gu family, he had encountered a lady from Longxing Country named Miss Gu.

At the time, she skillfully averted a looming battle with just a few clever words.

Furthermore, she used ingenious puns to clearly point out the real traitor within the Sicuro Mafia, which raised Beckett’s suspicion and led him to bring Kun back to the Sicuro Mafia.

If it weren’t for meeting Miss Gu, the battle back then would have ended in mutual destruction, and the Little BOSS wouldn’t have seized power so smoothly.

If Beckett remembers correctly, this Miss Gu was quite close to the Little BOSS back then, even possibly fitting into the category of a mistress...

Indeed, it was a dereliction of duty.

He almost killed the Little BOSS’s mistress just now...

Han Shang asked expressionlessly, "Are you sure the person who stopped the battle is Xue Tong?"

His look was indifferent, revealing no emotion, and even Beckett, who had followed him for many years, couldn’t guess in the slightest.

Beckett replied methodically, "Yes, I can be sure. After returning at that time, I drew Miss Gu’s appearance from memory, and the resemblance was almost negligible."

Drawing from a memory might be inaccurate, but it was still synchronized enough with Gu Tong’s looks to prove her identity.

Han Shang ’hmm’ed, not saying another word, looking completely as if he understood.

As a Commander in the Sicuro’s high ranks, it wasn’t hard for him to grasp the crucial point.

Beckett was full of doubts, feeling somewhat conflicted, "Little BOSS... is there something off about this Miss Xue Tong? From her earlier manner, it seemed she didn’t recognize you..."

Originally helping Sicuro, Beckett should have shown gratitude, but this Miss Xue Tong seemed to confront the Little BOSS in a hostile manner.

A slight coldness hung on the corner of Han Shang’s lips as he spoke slowly and deliberately, "Someone who doesn’t know me yet helped me, what do you think that means?"

The sudden rhetorical question left Beckett baffled, "Your subordinate is dull."

Beckett considered himself not particularly intelligent, unable to perceive the extremely bizarre situation.

Feigning mystery, Han Shang commented, "The dull one isn’t you!"

Why...

Beckett was still confused, "Your subordinate is muddled and doesn’t grasp Little BOSS’s deeper meaning..."

Han Shang’s icy fingertips rested on his collar, leisurely adjusting it, "Understand me? Is there anyone in this world who truly understands me, haha, does such a person even exist!"

There was nothing wrong with this sentence...

The Little BOSS’s temperament was ever-changing, even the old BOSS often found it challenging to gauge his thoughts.

Capriciousness might just be the best term to describe the Little BOSS...
