CHAPTER 6: CHAPTER 6: RAN AWAY UNDER HIS NOSE

Feng Mian coughed lightly. "Doctor Bo, your little one is looking this way."

"Chatterbox!" Bo Xichen muttered, his gaze meeting Gu Anxi’s.

She seemed like a kitten with its fur standing on end. Even though it didn’t show on her face, he sensed she was displeased.

Gu Anxi stared at the doctor she had seen earlier that day. Now, in the bar, his ice-blue eyes held a surprising warmth, like a feather caressing her.

Gu Anxi bit her lip. Damn it!

Bo Xichen chuckled softly. Heh, such a little one indeed!

Just then, his phone chimed. It was a message from Fengxi.

[Black Market news: Unseen is within one kilometer of your location.]

Bo Xichen’s lips curved slightly. His tall, black-clad figure rose. "Feng Mian, time to work."

Feng Mian had also received Fengxi’s message. "Are you serious?! Not now! Not here!"

The duo swiftly moved out. 「Soon, they arrived at Imperial’s parking lot, where two laptops were opened simultaneously.」

"A one-kilometer radius likely means Unseen is within Imperial itself," Bo Xichen said, his jade-like fingers tapping on the keyboard. "I’ll cover Imperial’s interior; Feng Mian, you take the perimeter."

「Ten minutes later, Imperial’s security system was infiltrated undetected. All activities within the establishment, including private rooms, changing rooms, and even restrooms, were under surveillance.」 The feeds kept switching, monitoring everything within Imperial.

「Back in the bar, Gu Anxi looked towards their empty seats.」 She had a feeling that man wasn’t simple. At least, not merely a doctor. And definitely not as gentle and refined as he appeared on the surface.

Gu Anxi’s gaze dropped. She continued to polish the tall wine glasses until they sparkled, much to the manager’s satisfaction.

「At nine o’clock, her shift ended.」 She informed the manager and headed towards the changing room.

At Imperial, the staff changing room and showers were connected. Gu Anxi opened her locker. Just as she unbuttoned the first button of her blouse, her gaze suddenly lifted—

「Meanwhile, in the parking lot, Bo Xichen’s hand, which was switching the security feeds, paused.」

It’s her! That little one! Is she... changing clothes?

In the video, Gu Anxi’s hand moved back. She pulled her clothes out of the locker and walked into the shower area. From Bo Xichen’s angle, he could only see a pair of slippers and the billowing steam.

Bo Xichen’s slender fingers curled involuntarily. Just then, Feng Mian leaned in. "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing! Get back to work," Bo Xichen said, his voice suddenly husky, suppressing the slight disturbance within him.

Feng Mian was getting impatient. "’Unseen’ is too cunning. There’s not a trace. Young Master Bo, could the intel be wrong?"

"Fengxi’s information has never been wrong," Bo Xichen stated, his voice cool.

"True enough," Feng Mian muttered.

Just then, Fengxi sent another message—

[Black Market news: Unseen has made their move. A dignitary from another country has lost an important document at Imperial.]

[Black Market news: Imperial has activated full security, but Unseen has escaped.]

[Black Market news: In this operation, still no one saw what Unseen looks like; only that they were dressed in white.]

...

「Predictably, the black market was now in an uproar, and the legend of Unseen grew further.」

Feng Mian tossed his laptop aside. "Fucking hell! Unseen carried out the operation and got away with it right under our noses!"

"The target wasn’t killed, merely lost some documents," Bo Xichen said, his ice-blue eyes glinting with a cold light. Dressed in white, they appear and never fail. What kind of powerful entity was this?
