Ye Ningyuan eventually returned to City A. Xu Nuo wondered if she really had any reason to see him. He was right that they needed time to calm down. She had to consider whether she should tell him that she was Xu Nuo.

If something really happened to Hailan, and he knew that she was Xu Nuo, would it be too much for him to handle?

Things were unexpectedly complicated.

Just as Xu Nuo was troubled and vexed, she received a call from the vice-inspector of the international anti-terrorist group who immediately scolded her once she picked up the call. To Xu Nuo, this vice-inspector was also in a difficult spot.

The international anti-terrorist groups were managed in a slightly different manner. There was a senior inspector, a vice-inspector, and three assistant-inspectors who were responsible for internal affairs. Right below them was the overall team leader and the seven team leaders of the action, search, security forces, intelligence, spec-ops, support, and training teams.

The spec-ops team was under the jurisdiction of the senior inspector and the vice-inspector, and Xu Nuo was the third most powerful person in the anti-terrorist group. While she was not familiar with the senior inspector, she mostly liaised with the vice-inspector when it came to work. The commander of the international anti-terrorist organization was a man in his thirties who was suave, cold, and decisive. While she did not know him well, she really respected him. The vice-inspector, on the other hand, was an American in his fifties who was very capable, but she really could not agree with how he dealt with people and work. The vice-inspector, on the other hand, was Michael’s good friend and he had rooted for Xu Nuo when she entered the anti-terrorist group.

Disliking the fact that he was managed by somebody younger than him, the haughty him had always wanted to pull the senior inspector down. He was haughty and had a sense of superiority, always striving to improve his achievements. By running the Top Terrorist Organization into the ground, he hoped to outshine the senior inspector in terms of achievements and become senior inspector himself. Xu Nuo knew that too well.

Counter-terrorism, counter-terrorism… If he could indeed take out the Top Terrorist Organization, he would indeed be able to rest peacefully since nobody would judge any mediocre achievements of his that followed. If he did not vanquish the Top Terrorist Organization, he would never be able to become the commander of the international anti-terrorist organization.

She could understand this older person’s thoughts, but she was planning to abandon the mission now.

It was because Black J of the Top Terrorist Organization was Ye Ningyuan.

Sensing that he would scold incessantly for minutes, An Xunuo put her cell phone aside and went online to see to some matters and arranged for the search team and action team to raid the three largest terrorist groups and mafias in the Middle East. As the Sophie Vasi was an international mafia, it had very close relations with several terrorist groups in the Middle East. With the Sophie Vasi in ruins, these terrorist groups were seriously affected and it hence made for the best time to strike.

Once her cell phone quieted down a little, she then picked up the phone and coldly said, “I am wholly to blame for the failure of the mission. The senior inspector will receive my report in his email tomorrow. I will not implicate you.”

He then scolded her profusely. Where would his face go? She clearly said that the mission was about to succeed, so why did it suddenly fail?

“Nothing. I was too careless, and the intelligence was all fake intelligence that is of no use.”

…

The call was terribly boring. In the end, the vice-inspector wanted Xu Nuo to meet him in Rome as he had something to discuss with her. The vice-inspector, along with the FBI, was investigating another criminal organization in Rome. She agreed and ended the call.

Would she still want to continue working in the anti-terrorist group?

Xu Nuo secretly wondered. Should she continue being a counter-terrorist fighter? Was she even qualified to be one? Her dearest Stone was the largest terrorist in the world, and her remaining as a counter-terrorist fighter would make her a laughingstock.

But she really… liked this job.

Having sparred with terrorists both intellectually and in combat to prevent terrorist incidents and destroying terrorist organizations had been her life for all these years. She had begun to like the job.

She did not want to give up her job, but how should she go about finding this perfect balance?

Rome.

Xu Nuo had been in Rome for four days. She saw the vice-inspector yesterday and was lectured by him. He sternly warned her that she must produce results and help him ascend to the position of senior inspector.

He was about to retire in three years, and this was his final opportunity. He had dedicated his whole life to counter-terrorism, and he was indignant at how he was unable to achieve the highest position in the anti-terrorist group, not to mention how he felt pinned down by others.

Xu Nuo remained silent and did not give a response. The ‘result’ in question was undoubtedly to defeat the Top Terrorist Organization. Even if she submitted the intelligence she gathered, the Top Terrorist Organization would only be battered but its foundations would never be shaken thanks to Ye Ningyuan’s ability.

Taking down the Top Terrorist Organization was easier said than done. Over a decade ago, the Mafia could have achieved parity with the Top Terrorist Organization, and upending the Top Terrorist Organization at an immense cost was a possibility. How was that even possible now?

Mo Jue took his car keys and was about to head out. Since the Mo brothers had settled down in Rome, they had long secretly moved the Mafia’s head office to Rome. He had an appointment with a diamond dealer today and was heading out. He saw a lady in a red skirt standing below a blossoming tree.

Mo Jue frowned and slightly squinted at Xu Nuo, who was walking over. It was actually very easy to look up where they resided. She knew that her brothers had settled down in Rome.

Although they had spent little time with one another and were sworn siblings, the Mo brothers, especially Mo Jue, really doted on her.

When they were younger, Mo Jue promised her that he would bring her to live with him once all had settled down. He actually knew that Wolf had never treated her well but did not speak up against it not because he did not dote on her.

Mo Jue instead told her that she had to be adept at fighting or she would not survive in their world. That was the reason why Xu Nuo strove hard to master fighting. She wanted to keep up with them.

Mo Jue would visit her once every one to two months and assessed her skills during his visits. He was very pleased with the progress she made.

“Who are you?” Mo Jue looked at the woman who approached him skeptically with a deep and calm gaze. Wushuang, who was upstairs, whistled and called Ye Wei. “Mommy, Mommy, you are in danger! Daddy is about to cheat on you!”

Ye Wei walloped her head and said, “If he dares to cheat on me, I’ll find you a stepfather. Huh, isn’t that An Xunuo? Why is she here?”

“Mommy, elder sister, what are you looking at?” Another five-six-year-old boy leaped to the window and immediately whistled. “Huh? Does Daddy have a girlfriend?”

Ye Wei pinched the little boy’s tiny ear, and the little boy cried out, accusing her of using excessive force before running downstairs in a huff. “I’ll look for my elder brother to see what’s going on.”

“Second brother, I am home.” Xu Nuo gently smiled. Mo Jue’s eyes were wide open and he almost dropped his car keys. There was only one person in the world who would call him ‘second brother’. Mo Jue was aghast. “Nuo Nuo.”

“Mmhmm!” Xu Nuo nodded. Mo Jue recalled the special signal days ago. He then turned to see that familiar expression on Xu Nuo’s face, along with her usual wardrobe. Mo Jue suddenly laughed and embraced her tightly.

Mo Wushuang’s mouth was wide open and she jabbed Ye Wei with her elbow. “Mommy, Daddy sure is taking the initiative here.”
