Chapter 1198 - So, You Like Yun Liuli So Much!

He closed his reddened eyes. He turned around and had yet to set down the phone he was holding when his bedroom door opened…
Xiao Yuan was standing outside the door with a hint of a smile. The wound on his face had yet to heal. His gaze was 30% smiles and 70% hatred as he looked at Zhou Yuzhen, seeming extremely vicious.


So, you like Yun Liuli so much!
Xiao Yuan’s face was full of contempt.
Tsk tsk… Then, if something were to happen to Yun Liuli, you wouldn’t be able to live, eh?

Zhou Yuchen’s beautiful face dimmed. He slowly set his phone down on the coffee table and straightened his body, darkness accumulating in his different colored eyes.

Yo, Yun Liuli has such an important weight in your heart! Can’t even talk about it…
Xiao Yuan chuckled as he leaned against the door frame with his arms crossed.
Since you have a weakness, are you going to walk out of our Xiao family by yourself, or do you want me to help you?


Just based on your capabilities?
Zhou Yuchen taunted in his deep voice.
It wasn’t as if Zhou Yuchen didn’t know about Yun Liuli’s fighting skills…

Of course I won’t be able to do it myself. But money talks!
Xiao Yuan then turned to leave.
Dare to gamble with me?


Zhou Yuchen clenched his fists, his gaze increasingly dark. His entire body turned cold, yet he couldn’t manage a single word.
…

Gu Qingcheng was living entirely according to Jacob Bellucci’s lifestyle pattern. Since he was going to stay one more day in Haicheng, based on Jacob Bellucci’s personality… he would surely go to some scenic places and take photos.
Gu Qingcheng knew that the people arranged to assassinate him would likely strike today. He also knew that although Jacob Bellucci appeared tall and well-built, he was unable to fend for himself.
Standing before the mirror, he put on a pair of black-framed glasses, as if it was symbolic of him putting on Jacob Bellucci’s mask.
When Gu Qingcheng came out of the bathroom, he grabbed his backpack and camera and left the hotel.
Gu Qingcheng had always been sharp. The instant he got into the cab, he sensed that someone was following him.
He planned to go to a beach in Haicheng to take photos today. Many photography enthusiasts would go there to take photos of the sunset. It was said that the scenery was glorious there!

Gu Qingcheng had very carefully selected this place. He had to make it logical for Jacob Bellucci to escape during the assassination attempt.
Where photography enthusiasts gathered to take photos, there would surely be other people around. Thus, people would think that Jacob Bellucci’s assassins had qualms, hence giving Jacob Bellucci a chance to escape.
In the cab, Gu Qingcheng turned on the camera he was holding and started scrolling through the photos, a slight smile appearing on his face.
It was okay to suffer an injury this time, because, after this incident, he would be able to stay in Haicheng… and lead an aboveboard life with Yun Liuli!

Moreover, with Yun Liuli meticulously taking care of him after he got injured, it was natural for them to develop feelings for each other!
Only with him getting injured would things seem logical!
He had been through so many obstacles. This last bit… Gu Qingcheng didn’t fear!
After Gu Qingcheng got out of the cab, he saw that there were photography enthusiasts who had set up their cameras on the elevated bridge by the roadside. They were standing around in groups of two or three smoking and chatting merrily as they waited for sunset.
After careful selection, Gu Qingcheng chose a spot that wasn’t too bad, then set up his tripod and camera before bending over to adjust everything.
With one look at Gu Qingcheng’s gear, the photography enthusiasts knew that Gu Qingcheng was at a professional level. While Gu Qingcheng was adjusting his camera, someone went up to him and handed him a cigarette, wanting to build relations with him and exchange photography tips.
Jacob Bellucci never touched something like cigarettes. As Jacob Bellucci, Gu Qingcheng naturally rejected the offer.
Pretending to be Jacob Bellucci wasn’t hard for Gu Qingcheng—except for the need to quit cigarettes. He had struggled for a while with quitting, and now that he hadn’t touched cigarettes for a while, he didn’t think of wanting to smoke as much.
People started coming over to him in groups of two and three. Some wanted to look at Jacob Bellucci’s equipment, while others came to consult him for photography tips. Within a short while… these photography enthusiasts gathered together!
But Jacob Bellucci wasn’t used to interacting with so many people, so he felt awkward. Bypassing pedestrians could all see the uneasiness Jacob Bellucci was feeling.

The guy sent by Cen Mo to kill Jacob Bellucci couldn’t find an opportunity to strike!
According to his usual method of assassination, he could simply fire a shot from the dark to blow the target’s brains out and be done with it!
But Cen Mo had requested… that Jacob Bellucci not die an easy death. This would make the task difficult!
What did he mean by
not die an easy death
?
Should he directly abduct him… then torture him to death?
Or should he first fire a shot at him, then hunt him down all the way?
Before coming on this assassination mission, he had prepared his route of retreat. After finishing Jacob Bellucci off, he could get away immediately. It was just that the instructions for this task were ambiguous. He was asked not to let the target die too easily… but it wasn’t specified exactly how the target should die!
The guy assigned on this mission was in a dilemma to begin with. Furthermore, he received a call from Saihand, relaying Cen Mo’s order that he needed to strike in the eye of the public!
The assassin really couldn’t understand Cen Mo’s perverse preference. Striking in the eye of the public would make it very difficult for him to retreat!
But Saihand said that Cen Mo hoped that striking in the eye of the public could serve as a warning towards Fu Huai’an in Haicheng, who was Gu Qingcheng’s good pal.
After all, Fu Huai’an used to be in the special forces. If Cen Mo simply left him alone, he feared that Fu Huai’an would unscrupulously make use of his wife Song Yao’s good friend Lin Nuan to get Song Yao to threaten him to do something.
Hence, he wanted to torture Jacob Bellucci to death in the eye of the public in order to warn Fu Huai’an.
Honestly speaking, the assassin felt that Cen Mo’s way of thinking was rather peculiar. If he wanted it to serve as a threat, he could simply have made a phone call instead of insisting an assassin like him risk his life doing this!
But, since he was given orders by his superiors, and since it was agreed that he would be paid double the price, he agreed to it!
After all, human beings would die in pursuit of wealth, and birds would die in pursuit of food.
As the skies gradually turned darker, the photography enthusiasts who snapped the sunset started leaving in groups of two and three. Jacob Bellucci, however, remained standing there, looking as if he was waiting to shoot the moon.
One photography enthusiast who was grateful to Jacob Bellucci for imparting some tips to him earlier, said to him,
Mr. Jacob Bellucci, the skies are overcast, and the moon isn’t going to appear… You won’t be able to take photos of the moon here!

Jacob Bellucci nodded.
I know!

Hearing this reply, the photography enthusiast stopped speaking. Some of the enthusiasts had packed up their equipment and left, whilst some finished packing up but stayed to watch what Jacob Bellucci was going to shoot.
Seeing that most of the people had left, the assassin took a puff of his cigarette, then forsake using a gun and drew out a dagger from his trouser leg before starting to walk towards Jacob Bellucci.
It appeared as if Jacob Bellucci got obsessed when he was doing anything involving photography, so much so that he hadn’t noticed someone appearing beside him at all. Someone patted his shoulder…
