Chapter 318: Chapter 318: Return to the Country

The three of them had just stopped and exchanged a couple of words when Mario, who had been following them, appeared, clutching a dagger in his hand.

A large red figure concealed his face, making it impossible to discern his features or gender, adding an air of mystery about him.

"Who sent you?" Lin Mengyao asked, her voice slightly tight as she watched Mario intending to move closer. She wanted to know who was behind targeting them. However, Xu Ke and Sheng Wenhao had no doubts. They had already guessed who hired him to commit murder, but they could only say that the person wasn’t professional enough. Instead of taking down Sheng Wenhao at the moment he let down his guard, they circled around, ultimately sacrificing their own life to pay for the scheme.

The thin and sharp blade was gently brushed by Sheng Wenhao’s fingers in his hand. "Not bad, the knife is quite sharp and handy. Order one for me when we return," Sheng Wenhao nudged Xu Ke with his elbow. After Xu Ke nodded, he happily turned his gaze back to Mario, but this time with an impatient look.

"Are you insulting me?" A muffled voice emanated from inside the puppet.
