When Long Xi said this, he was even more nervous than Shen Xiaoxiao.
Lover? Yes, he just felt that if he and Shen Xiaoxiao had an old relationship, then there was only one possibility.
They used to be lovers.
This kind of perception was so strong that it made him feel afraid.
He felt that this was the truth.

“Boss Long, you’re really open-minded.”

“Hahaha, Xiaoxiao, your current appearance makes me more and more happy.”

He was really getting more and more shameless.
However, since he had said this, Shen Xiaoxiao was not afraid to speak openly to him.

“Why don’t you tell me, Boss Long, what is the relationship between you and the old woman?”

Long Xi stopped smiling.
Shen Xiaoxiao actually knew about this?

“How do you know?”

“Did Boss Long forget about the heavy bounty offered by the Dark Empire? I will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to find the old woman.
If I can’t even find this out, my Dark Empire will not continue.”

Hearing such an answer, Long Xi dispelled some of his doubts.
Indeed, according to the bounty offered by the Dark Empire, no matter how the old woman tried to hide, she would be found out as long as she was abroad.

“Since Xiaoxiao has already investigated everything, she naturally knows that I was saved by the old woman.
All she wants is my means and money, because only I have the ability to contend against the Dark Empire.
Isn’t that right?”

“That’s it? She hopes you can protect her?”

“Yes, that’s it.”

As for the matter of wanting the children, Long Xi subconsciously did not want to say it out loud.
He was not stupid.
If he had only wanted the children from the start to the end, Shen Xiaoxiao, this woman would definitely kill him immediately, and it would be the kind that would not rest until one of them was dead.

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi.
Although the light was dim, his eyes were as deep as ever.
His amber-colored eyes covered his original thoughts.
No matter how much of a lie there was, Shen Xiaoxiao would believe it, because as long as this Yan Kuan really dared to say that he wanted to capture her children, she could guarantee that the blade in her hand would immediately shoot out towards his throat.
Fortunately, he was not stupid and knew that he could not say it out loud.

“Then, I will say something from the bottom of my heart to Boss Long.
As long as I live, I will fight the old woman to the death!”

Even though Long Xi had imagined it many times, he never thought that Shen Xiaoxiao would say such a thing.
What kind of hatred did she have with the old woman that she would fight to the death?

“Xiaoxiao, what do you mean?”

“Don’t you understand what I mean? You want to protect her, so naturally between you and me, even between the Dark Empire and the Western District’s 24th Street, it’s the same!”

The topic was getting heavier and heavier.
Long Xi did not know how to answer Shen Xiaoxiao’s words because he had already said that the old woman was his savior and needed his protection… Would Shen Xiaoxiao believe him if he told her that he did not care about the old woman’s life and death? Naturally, she would not believe him, but what was he going to do?

After today, no, it was just the beginning.
He did not know why it was so hard for him to accept it when he heard the words ‘fight to the death’.
He felt like he was suffocating under the pressure.
He thought that his favorability toward this woman… Was probably far more simple than he had imagined.

“Xiaoxiao should go to bed earlier.
The anger from not sleeping the whole night is getting stronger and stronger.”

“Maybe so, but Boss Long can also think about what I said.
Since I’ve already said it, my heart will be relieved.
Are you an old friend or an enemy now, Boss Long?”

Long Xi looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s relaxed look.
He knew that she was not as relaxed as she looked on the surface.
Instead, she seemed to be a little heavier.
Now, he wanted to know more about what kind of relationship they had once had.

“I just slept, and I’m starting to want to hear stories.
Do you mind telling me about you and Lord Black Emperor? I heard that Little Treasure was found not long ago.
Then, Xiaoxiao, are you…”

“Long Xi is getting more and more gossipy.”

“Gossipy? I’m only doing that to Xiaoxiao.
Other women are just air to me.”

“Air, just air…”

Bang…

Shen Xiaoxiao had just finished speaking when Long Xi suddenly pounced on her.
With a bang, the sound of bullets was heard and the courage was shattered all over the ground.

“Sniper.”

Bang, bang, bang…

Just by listening to the sounds coming from all directions, one could tell that there was more than one sniper outside.

“Xiaoxiao, do you think this is to deal with you, me, or the two of us?”

“What do you think?”

“If something happens in Xiaoxiao’s territory, I think it’s more likely to be against you.”

Shen Xiaoxiao smiled but did not say anything.
She took out two pistols from her leather boots, one in each hand.
It was obvious that they were going to fight.

However, how could Long Xi allow this woman to block in front of him? He took the gun in Shen Xiaoxiao’s left hand and pushed her behind him:

“I, Long Xi, have never had the habit of letting women walk in front of me.”

Shen Xiaoxiao hid behind him and looked at this man who was as proud and arrogant as ever.
For a moment, she really did not want to say anything more.

Every woman wished that there was a man who would protect her so desperately.
No matter how strong this woman was, she hoped that there would be a man who would treat her this way during a crisis.

“This area is full of beaches.
Is there any place to hide?”

“Yes, the basement.”

“Let’s go to the basement first.
There are four snipers and several killers outside.
Look at the holes in the windows.
It seems that your enemy is determined to take your life today.”

“We still don’t know who will take whose life.”

Long Xi knew that this girl was very stubborn.
However, he also realized that there were actually two groups of people here.
There might really be people who wanted to kill him.

“I’ll cover you to go to the basement.
We have three seconds.”

“Okay.”

Shen Xiaoxiao had never been ambiguous in such a life-and-death situation.
Moreover, with someone covering her, coupled with the tacit cooperation between the two of them and the accuracy of their calculation of time, they would naturally be able to avoid this kind of pursuit very quickly.

The entrance to the basement was behind the storeroom.
It was very easy to go around it.
Moreover, Long Xi’s marksmanship was very good.
Although the lights were not turned on and those people were also outside, every bullet that came out of the window hit the target, the muffled groans could be heard every time.

“Your marksmanship is not bad.
Now I want to compete with you to see who is better.”

“Come on, we are almost out of bullets.
It’s not impossible to fight with fire, but there are two groups of people outside.
I don’t know how many of them there are.
It’s not my style to take risks rashly.”

“I know.
It’s not my style to take risks rashly.
But when I’m ready, none of the people outside can escape.
Alright, come down.”

Behind the freezer was a secret room.
This was done in an extremely concealed manner.
If it was not for Shen Xiaoxiao leading the way, it would be difficult to discover this door.
The two of them walked down one after the other….
