Everyone says An Jingxing got lucky and latched onto Gin's coattails. Otherwise, how could a fool who didn't learn to speak until she was eight become Gin's top subordinate?
When those words reach An Jingxing's ears, she just smiles indifferently.
They're right. She really did get incredibly lucky when she latched on to Gin on his first day at the orphanage. Ever since, she's lived with her head on the line every single day, all thanks to him.
An Jingxing wears a world-weary expression. When will this seemingly endless life finally be over?
And judging by the signature colors of the members' clothes, they're definitely the villains in a manga. She just doesn't know when the protagonist will show up and wipe out the organization. She sighs deeply, repeatedly polishing the gun in her hands.
Then she meets a trio: a mustachioed middle-aged man, a high school girl, and a little boy in black-rimmed glasses. She realizes with a start that the protagonist has arrived! Her chance to regain her freedom is finally here!
Wait, why did she say regain her freedom?
Gin, dressed in black from head to toe, sits cross-legged on a floral picnic blanket and slowly tightens his grip on a pale yellow flower-shaped cup.
The supposedly urgent matter that had her on the verge of exploding was that she couldn't find anyone to go camping with her? He falls into thought. Has he been too lenient with her?
"A Jin, have some more. This plum wine is seriously delicious." An Jingxing picks up the bottle and fills his empty cup. She glances curiously at the trembling mass beside her. "Sanlang, what's wrong? It's not even that cold today. Why are you shivering so much?"
Feeling Gin's casual glance, Vodka trembles even harder. He hurriedly tries to cover it up. "Oh, it's nothing. I'm just more sensitive to the cold."
No matter how many times he sees it, he still can't get used to the way his big brother and Xiao Xing interact. The first thing his big brother does after eliminating a target is come keep her company on a picnic.
Big brother, you are so in love with her!
An Jingxing looks Vodka up and down, then says meaningfully, "Sanlang, you're... getting to the age where you should start taking care of your health."
Vodka is close to tears. He's nowhere near old enough to worry about his health! Big brother, say something! At least explain things for him a little!
