Chapter 699: Tangle and Hesitation
At the same time, in the imperial capital of China, in a luxurious villa, two girls who were top-notch in both appearance and figure were chatting.
They were the sisters Leng Yu and Leng Xue who were sent by Lu Feng to protect Shen Suyuan. However, Shen Suyuan went to the Magic City to find Lu Feng and left them here.
"Sister, I miss the young master a little bit."
On the comfortable big bed, Leng Yu's beautiful eyes were full of longing.
Hearing her sister's words, Leng Xue was in a trance for a moment, and a trace of fluctuation flashed in her eyes, which originally had no emotion.
"Leng Yu, don't forget what you decided in the beginning. We are just the young master's servants. Don't expect anything else. Being able to accompany the young master is already the greatest luck in our lives."
Leng Xue suppressed the throbbing in her heart and spoke with a cold look.
Upon hearing this, Leng Yu suddenly wilted and covered his head with the quilt.
"Huh, got it."
Leng Yu, who was hiding in the quilt, snorted, which made Leng Xue shake her head.
As an older sister, how could she not understand what her younger sister was thinking.
Leng Xue turned her head slightly, avoiding the direction of Leng Yu, and a trace of loneliness quietly crept onto her cold face.
She bit her lower lip lightly, trying to maintain her calm appearance, but the tide of longing in her heart was flooding like a broken dam.
How could she not think of the young master? Lu Feng's slender figure, deep eyes, and the occasional smile on his lips, all lingered in her dreams again and again.
Every time he cared and paid attention to their subtle details, it was like a gentle knife, carving deep marks in the softest part of her heart.
Countless times late at night, she had recalled the moments she had spent with the young master, reminding herself not to indulge herself, but her emotions were like a runaway horse, difficult to control.
She could only bury this longing deep down, and build a solid defense line with a cold exterior, but inside the defense line, there was a burning and nostalgic heart secretly grieving.
"drop!"
Just as the two sisters were missing Lu Feng, the computer in the bedroom suddenly made a sound.
Upon hearing this voice, both Leng Xue, who was secretly sad, and Leng Yu, who was hiding in the quilt, sat up suddenly and came to the computer at a speed that ordinary people could not achieve.
"Sister, this is the organization's distress signal!"
Leng Yu looked at the flashing signal on the computer, her pretty face full of horror.
Leng Xue didn't say anything, but her slightly trembling hands proved that she was not as calm as she looked on the surface.
As two of the ten shadow assassins of Scarlet Rose, no one understands the horror of the organization better than them.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Blood Rose declares that she wants to assassinate a big boss on Blue Star, no matter how high the status of this big boss is, he will not be able to sleep all night, and may even stay at home and dare not go out.
And this is the terrifying deterrent power of the second-ranked killer in the world, Bloody Rose.
But such a terrifying killer organization sent out a distress signal at this time, and it was sent to the two of them who had already left the organization.
This made the two sisters feel that they were shrouded in endless darkness, and even the bright lights above their heads could not dispel the fear in their hearts.
Looking at the roses on the computer screen, Leng Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of entanglement. She bit her lower lip slightly and asked softly: "Sister, how should we respond to this organization's distress signal?"
"We have been away from the organization for a long time, but this was once our home after all." Her eyes moved between Leng Xue and the computer screen, her brows slightly furrowed, and her heart was extremely conflicted.
Leng Xue frowned slightly, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes: "No, let's take a look at the situation first and find out what happened."
After saying that, she slowly reached out with the mouse in her hand towards the website icon that she hadn't touched for a long time.
However, just as Leng Xue's fingertips were about to touch the mouse, Leng Yu quickly reached out and gently pressed the back of Leng Xue's hand.
At this moment, her expression was solemn and serious, and she stared directly into Leng Xue's eyes:
"Sister, we are no longer part of the organization. We now serve the Young Master. If we open this website, it may bring unknown trouble to the Young Master."
"A force that could have put Scarlet Rose in such a predicament must be extremely complex and dangerous. We cannot allow our past connections to implicate the young master."
Leng Xue's movements came to an abrupt halt, with her fingers suspended in mid-air.
There was a conflict in her eyes, and she was torn between her responsibility to the organization and her loyalty to Lu Feng.
But this situation did not last long. She slowly withdrew her hand and nodded slightly: "You are right, Leng Yu. We can't act rashly. We must consider the young master first."
The room fell into silence. Only the flickering rose light on the computer illuminated the two people's solemn faces in the darkness, as if urging them to make a more difficult decision.
The two of them just stood quietly in front of the computer, and the air seemed to be stagnant because of their inner entanglement.
Leng Yu's eyes were full of struggle, and her thoughts drifted back to the days when she trained with her sisters in the organization. Those moments of fighting side by side and sharing life and death were played in her mind like slides.
She knew very well that if she got involved in the organization's request for help, she might drag the young master into a dangerous vortex. However, if she turned a blind eye to the sisters' plight, the deep friendship of more than 20 years would be like a thorn in her back, and she would feel uneasy.
Leng Xue was also caught in a dilemma. She bit her lower lip tightly, her brow furrowed, and her mind kept replaying the young master's trusting gaze and the kind smiles of the sisters in the organization.
On one side was her promise of loyalty and protection to the young master, and on the other was the sisterhood that was thicker than blood. These two emotions were like two thick ropes that bound her heart tightly and made it painful.
As time went by, the faces of the sisters in their hearts became clearer and clearer. The hardships they had endured together and the laughter they had shared all turned into sharp swords, piercing their hearts.
Leng Yu's eyes gradually turned red, tears welled up in her eyes, and finally she couldn't help but burst out.
Crystal tears slid down the corners of Leng Xue's eyes, slowly falling down her cheeks and dripping onto the cold floor.
After a long while, Leng Xue took a deep breath, her voice slightly choked: "Leng Yu, I think we can open the website and take a look first."
"If the matter is not so difficult that it cannot be resolved, we will tell the young master the truth and ask for his help. The young master is kind-hearted and may lend a hand because of our loyalty."
"But if the crisis is beyond imagination and so big that we are unable to cope with it, then... we can only harden our hearts and pretend that we have never seen the distress signal. After all, the safety of the young master is our primary consideration." Her words were full of helplessness and pain, and every word seemed to be squeezed out with difficulty from the bottom of her heart.
Leng Yu raised her head, looked at Leng Xue with tearful eyes, and nodded gently: "Sister, this is the only way."
"But I'm still afraid. I'm afraid that if I take this step, I'll fall into an irretrievable situation. I'll not only harm the young master, but also fail to help my sisters." Her body trembled slightly, and her inner entanglement and fear were revealed.
