Chapter 1278: Chapter 1277: Little Boss, Your Orders Please

The dark earth shrouded in shadows.

The Sicuro Mafia escaped from the villagers’ pursuit effortlessly and were now resting inside the black business car, gathering their energy.

In truth, escaping from the villagers without harming them was nothing to them, merely a matter of using a few non-toxic smoke bombs.

But inside the Ancient Tomb, indeed, they had expended quite a bit of effort and needed proper adjustment.

Han Shang lowered his eyelids, appearing somewhat languid. His thin lips parted, saying, "Beckett."

"I’m here..." Beckett’s heart was racing with unease, nervously saying, "What can I do for you, Little Boss?"

Han Shang tapped his leather seat with his index finger, speaking leisurely, "Beckett, will you suddenly fail to recognize me?"

"I swear loyalty to Little Boss unto death, certainly won’t..." Beckett felt cold sweat forming as he responded anxiously.

Han Shang abruptly interrupted him, saying, "But why is it that people who clearly know me claim they don’t? Ha ha ha..."

Beckett: "..." He knew without guessing whom the Little Boss referred to...

It must be Miss Xue Tong from the Ancient Tomb, filled with mystery. Beckett didn’t know their backstory, so he couldn’t speculate rashly.

He could only rely on intuition...

"Perhaps she did it on purpose..."

This wasn’t Beckett’s conspiracy theory but rather an understanding of Little Boss’s unique identity. Daily, various potential romances surfaced, and he even found it troublesome to brush them away.

Choosing another approach to attract Little Boss’s attention might be a strategy.

Han Shang raised his eyelids, his purple pupils gleaming with a cold light, saying, "She doesn’t need to attract my attention!" He understood Beckett’s meaning.

Beckett: "..." What does Little Boss mean...

It seems whether she attracts attention or not, Little Boss is focused on her...

This...

Beckett swallowed, unwilling to speculate further.

Meanwhile, Han Shang’s order had already been issued, saying, "Investigate! Find all the details of Xue Tong’s past years, leave nothing out!"

"Understood..." Beckett dared not be negligent, his regard for this Miss Xue Tong growing a few notches.

Someone who could captivate Little Boss like this...

Certainly was not comparable to ordinary people!

...

’Swish--’

’Bang--’

On the other side, the plane finally landed smoothly, the intense vibrations causing discomfort for both Gu Tong and Xia Xi.

In this lifetime, both had seldom taken flights, so any reactions were quite normal.

However.

Fortunately, their physiques were sturdy and resilient, and simply a few bumps posed no real issue.

Xia Xi carried no luggage, just a backpack she wore, saying, "I’ll head off first, won’t see you off!"

While walking, Xia Xi spoke, her heart already soaring to the distant Demon King.

Gu Tong pursed her lips, not intending for her to see her off, saying, "Alright, I’m heading to the city; we’re not going the same way."

While talking, they reached the parking lot, the most fitting spot for parting ways there, each driving off on their paths.

Xia Xi, rich and carefree, prepared several cars in advance, handing one to Gu Tong to drive.

The unprecedented tacit understanding between Gu Tong and Xia Xi.

Neither said a word more, simply driving off, leaving not even a goodbye.
