Chapter 217 Qu Ming
Qu Ming was someone assigned by his superiors to cooperate with Shi Xia in his undercover work.
He has a Middle Eastern appearance, speaks foreign languages, and doesn't fit the typical Chinese look that most foreigners perceive, making it easier for the one-eyed man to gain their trust.
Qu Ming and Shi Xia left together in a small boat that had no engine.
Qu Ming didn't understand at first, until he saw a sperm whale biting the rope and propelling the boat forward. He was thrown backward, and if Shi Xia hadn't pulled him back, he probably would have fallen into the sea.
"Let me tell you about the situation on the island. The most dissatisfied one is called One-Eyed. I guess he wants to contact the forces that used to support him and bring me down."
"The rest of the people are mostly a rabble. Here is a map. Take a look at it, memorize it, and then throw it away."
Qu Ming kept it all in mind; the fact that he was chosen to carry out this mission meant that he had extremely strong abilities.
When the ship arrived at the island where Shi Xia landed, Shi Xia told Qu Ming to go ahead first, and she would go back in a few days. She wanted to give One-Eyed a chance to win people over.
And so, with three killer whales pulling the boat and a little eagle leading the way, Qu Ming encountered One-Eyed.
One-Eyed led a small team to hijack a ship, but they were unlucky enough to run into a tough opponent with superior weaponry. They suffered heavy losses, with several men killed.
Qu Ming appeared at this time, and his accurate marksmanship helped One-Eyed.
One-Eyed was initially skeptical.
However, after Qu Ming refused his invitations to come to the island several times, his vigilance decreased considerably.
When asked why he helped him, Qu Ming simply pointed to the boat and said, "They have this mark."
Qu Ming didn't say much else; the one-eyed man understood on his own.
This is because of a grudge!
It's still a deep-seated grudge!
A person with exceptional marksmanship and deep hatred can be completely used by him.
One-Eyed used his indestructible skills, saying he could help Qu Ming get revenge, and Qu Ming was tempted.
The two returned to Pirate Island.
Just as Shi Xia had not yet returned, One-Eyed began to win people over.
A week later, Shi Xia finally returned.
The one-eyed man enthusiastically introduced Qu Ming to Shi Xia.
"Boss, his marksmanship is excellent, which is a great asset to us."
Shi Xia looked at Qu Ming with a bad expression.
"boom!"
The gun was fired.
Qu Ming injured his arm and instinctively retaliated.
boom!
Shi Xia dodged, and Qu Ming opened the door again.
The two then engaged in a back-and-forth battle.
The one-eyed man lay face down on the ground, clutching his head, yelling: Stop! Stop! We're all on the same side!
Shi Xia and Qu Ming both ran out of bullets, so they stopped.
The one-eyed man, who had been clutching his head, finally breathed a sigh of relief and got up.
"now it's right--"
Before she could even utter the word "ma," Shi Xia and Qu Ming started fighting.
Both of them were ruthless in their moves, as if they wanted to take lives.
"Don't fight! Don't fight!"
"Oh--"
The one-eyed person was accidentally injured.
After One-Eye was accidentally punched twice and ended up with a pair of black eyes, Shi Xia and Qu Ming stopped and stood facing each other.
Shi Xia looked at the one-eyed man, whose eyes could see through all his thoughts, making him feel guilty and uneasy.
"Great, we've found a capable helper."
"He's not the boss, he's our helper."
Shi Xia sneered.
"Ideally, I wouldn't mind having two fewer men under me."
Shi Xia took one last look at Qu Ming before turning and leaving.
One-Eyed looked displeased by Shi Xia's blatant threat, then turned around and looked at Qu Ming with a smile.
"Are you alright?" "I'm fine, just a minor injury."
Qu Ming, who was not good at talking, looked at the one-eyed man.
"You said you'd help me get revenge, so why do I feel like cooperating with her would be better?"
"Bro, do you think she'll help you?"
Qu Ming glanced at it and said nothing more.
From that day on, One-Eyed and Qu Ming joined forces completely, and the two won over most of the people.
If it weren't for Shi Xia's exceptional individual abilities and the hidden sniper squad, One-Eye would have truly wanted to "rebel" and don the imperial robes.
Pirate Island thus became seemingly peaceful.
Shi Xia would lead people on missions, and Du Yan and Qu Ming would also lead people out on missions.
With Shi Xia's indulgence and One-Eyed's greed, One-Eyed reconnected with the forces behind him.
Qu Ming saw all of this and tried his best to obtain all the information the one-eyed man possessed.
When the time is right, Qu Ming will completely replace One-Eyed Man and become the two controllers, one in the light and one in the dark, together with Shi Xia.
A month later, Shi Xia left again, creating a good opportunity for Qu Ming.
One-Eyed received a message to intercept a cargo ship bound for China.
Qu Ming and One-Eye went out together. Shi Xia hid and told Qu Ming that One-Eye would die today. Qu Ming didn't know how, but he believed her.
During the mission, Qu Ming and One-Eye's actions went very smoothly. However, when they were checking the cargo at the end, the ship suddenly rocked, and One-Eye fell into the sea.
As luck would have it, a swordfish leaped out of the sea, its sharp mouth piercing the one-eyed man's neck.
Even as he died, the one-eyed man couldn't believe he would die this way.
After One-Eyed died, the crew on the cargo ship rebelled, Qu Ming was accidentally injured, and Shi Xia appeared in time to save them.
From then on, Qu Ming took over One-Eyed's communication channels and the group of underlings he had won over.
To outsiders, Qu Ming appears to be cooperating with Shi Xia on the surface, but secretly he is always ready to turn the tables.
After Qu Ming took over the One-Eyed's intelligence network, he relayed messages to China several times, allowing Chinese ships to avoid losses on several occasions.
Shi Xia openly cooperated, seemingly interrupting Qu Ming's mission, while the two appeared to be locked in a fierce battle to outsiders.
You ruin me once, I'll ruin you once.
Shi Xia, the apparent boss, is very mysterious and often disappears, but unfortunately, she is too powerful, and Qu Ming sometimes has to rely on her.
So the two of them reached a balance.
At this moment, Shi Xia had already returned to the family compound.
Wen Cheng'an didn't know that Shi Xia had returned. He only knew that Shi Xia had been gone for almost two months, and he slept with Shi Xia's pillow every day.
For two months, Wen Cheng'an studied while recovering from his injury, taking his books with him even when eating or going to the toilet.
His comrades laughed at him, saying that the books he read all smelled like toilets.
Wen Chengan studied in the military's study room until nine o'clock before heading back. He even used a flashlight to read as he walked. As he walked, he looked up and froze.
The lights in the house are on!
Is your wife back?
The thought had barely formed in his mind when Wen Cheng'an had already taken a step.
With a bang, the door was pushed open, and Shi Xia stood in front of it, smiling at him.
"young married woman!"
"Hey."
Shi Xia responded, and Wen Cheng'an opened his arms without hesitation, giving her a tight hug.
"It's been sixty-three days."
"Counting so precisely?"
"Of course, the scent on the pillow has faded."
Shi Xia smiled helplessly and let Wen Cheng'an carry her into the house.
Once inside, Wen Cheng'an transformed from a docile lamb into a ruthless wolf, hooking his foot back and closing the door.
With a forceful upward lift, Shi Xia was lifted up, her height higher than his.
Their eyes met, and they couldn't help themselves.
