The Elite Assassin Becomes a Flat and Ugly Nerd!

185 Agreeing to the Date
With her back facing Zhou Xuan, Shan Yue paused for two seconds. A smile appeared on her lips where he could not see her. She pursed her lips. “Sure!” With that, she held up the umbrella and walked out of the foggy door.

It was still raining outside. The grayness enveloped the people passing by. Soon, Shan Yue gradually disappeared into the mist like a paradise.

Zhou Xuan stood on the spot and looked up. His eyes changed until Shan Yue was no longer in sight. A faint smile outlined his face and quickly disappeared as others passed by, maintaining a coldness.

The rain was falling harder now, washing against the walls as if it would drown the city. Shan Yue was alone on her way home, staring out the window at the endless world. A gray murderous aura made the atmosphere in the car more serious. Shan Yue could not help but recall the past.

Her determined eyes revealed absolute confidence. She leaned sideways against the back of the car and slowly closed the fingers of one hand into a fist. There was a different kind of determination in her eyes. “I will take back what I lost.”

The car shuttled through the rainy streets. The car gradually ran, and the rain gradually stopped. Before noon, the dark clouds gradually dissipated and released the enveloping sun. By the time Shan Yue reached home, the sun was already hanging in the air.

The upcoming trip to Las Vegas was long. Shan Yue still needed to make a lot of preparations, but all of this work would have to wait until she woke up from a deep sleep.

…

The air was exceptionally fresh after the rain stopped. With a slight breeze, the moon crept up the branches and illuminated the hazy city with spots of starlight.

Compared to the bustling and cold central city of the Federation, the slums where the Shan family lived had a simpler lifestyle. Only here could Shan Yue feel a trace of warmth and the meaning of life.

When Shan Yue slowly woke up from her deep sleep, it was already the next day. In the morning, she pushed open the door and looked at her brother, Shan Chen, who was eating. Her eyebrows relaxed and she revealed a rare smile.

“How long have you been asleep? You just woke up.” Ever since Shan Yue solved Shan Xing’s school problem, Sun Ling’s attitude had become worse and worse every day. She even returned to her usual coldness and meanness. “If you wake up so late next time, you won’t even have breakfast in the morning.”

A faint coldness flashed across Shan Yue’s eyes, and the curve of her lips was extremely mocking. “You’re really an ingrate. How heartless.” With that, she turned around and sat beside Shan Chen.

“Who are you talking about?” Sun Ling slammed her chopsticks on the table and frowned. “I’m feeding you. Isn’t it only right for you to help your sister go to school? I think you’re the heartless ingrate.”

“Hmph, who am I talking about?” The corners of Shan Yue’s mouth curled up slightly as she said expressionlessly, “I’ll talk about whoever is heartless and ungrateful. And don’t joke around. I pay the family every month, and I provide for myself. To put it bluntly, even the food and drinks you spend now are my money. How dare you say that?”

Shan Yue rendered Sun Ling speechless. Her embarrassed gaze was like it was bathed in fire as she stared straight at Shan Yue.

“Alright, stop talking.” Shan Chen’s brows were serious as he smiled. “It wasn’t easy for Sister to come back. Stop arguing. Let Sister eat.” As he spoke, he took a freshly baked bread and a cup of milk and placed them in front of Shan Yue.

Shan Yue’s face relaxed, and a smile slowly appeared on her scarlet lips. She took the bread with one hand and tapped the table casually with the other, deep in thought.

As she was going to Las Vegas in two days, she didn’t know how long she would be away for. No matter what, she had to tell her father and brother at home about this. At the very least, she didn’t want them to worry about her.

Shan Yue put down the half-eaten bread in her hand and stopped what she was doing with her other hand. She pursed her lips and crossed her hands in front of the table while her family was around. After thinking for a while, she said, “In the next few days, I’m going to Las Vegas for a trip.”
