After finishing her housework, Aunt Wu, like many other elderly people, went to bed early. Aunt Wu lived in a room on the first floor near the bathroom. Before going to sleep, the kind-hearted Aunt Wu specially went to Xiao Sheng's room to ask if he needed anything! Grateful for Aunt Wu's kindness, Xiao Sheng politely declined. A bed and a set of bedding were enough for him!

Chen Shuyuan, tired from a long day, comfortably lay in the bathtub in her room. Bubbles floated on the water, her slender legs buried in it. Her smooth, white skin, like lamb fat, was partially exposed above the water. With her eyes closed, she quietly savored this moment of comfort.

However, at this moment, a man's voice outside the window startled Chen Shuyuan. She quickly wrapped herself in a bathrobe and nervously walked towards the window, holding a comb in her hand, subconsciously using it as a weapon.

Next to the bathtub was Tong Tong's bathroom. At this moment, Tong Tong, naked, was soaking in a milk bath filled with toys. She had a towel wrapped around her head and was muttering curses. The toys floating on the water became the objects of her venting. Just as she was letting off steam, Tong Tong, like Chen Shuyuan, heard something outside. Unlike Chen Shuyuan, who was panicked, Tong Tong wrapped herself in a bathrobe and then grabbed a steel rod from her room. Having played too many online games and watched too many action movies, Tong Tong, who was always on edge, always kept some strange 'weapons' in her room, saying it was for future protection.

Today, she finally had the chance. Excitement and thrill had taken over her mind. As for fear, it seemed that Miss Tong had never really experienced it in all these years.

...

After Aunt Wu left, Xiao Sheng took the large canvas bag he had been carrying on his shoulder and placed it on the table, carefully opening it. Several high-tech surveillance devices were exposed before his eyes!

He glanced out the window, confirming that no one was around, and then slowly raised his wrist to his worn-out watch, whispering:

"Scout, can you determine my position?"

After a few seconds, a young man's voice came from the inconspicuous flesh-colored earpiece in Xiao Sheng's ear:

"Boss, I already determined your position when you confidently walked into Huaxin Group. Your driving skills on the mountain road today were awesome, it got my blood pumping."

"Cut the chatter, is AK in position?"

"He's already infiltrated the Huaxin security department and is investigating. According to the information, the person who hired the hit is likely a high-ranking official at Huaxin. AK might not have any leads yet!"

"No rush, the grassroots level is where we can find the most clues. This mission is different from others. The target is deeply hidden and has hired an overseas hit squad like the 'Death Saber.' We can't be complacent. I'll install the equipment now. You check the video quality via radio. This is the first time I'm using this new high-tech gadget. Pay attention to the angles, don't leave any blind spots."

"Understood."

'Scout' and 'AK' were the other two special forces members assisting Xiao Sheng on this mission. According to the available information, the person who hired the hit was likely a high-ranking official at Huaxin. However, for a local celebrity company CEO, it was unnecessary to deploy three top-tier special forces members. The higher-ups didn't provide much information about Chen Shuyuan's potential identity. A soldier's duty is to obey, and the mission was to protect the life of this female CEO for the next year.

The dark night provided Xiao Sheng with multiple layers of cover. Like a ghost, he moved swiftly and quietly, installing surveillance devices around the entire villa. Although this high-end residential area had several surveillance cameras, they would be useless against a trained professional.

After the Qingming Festival, the weather in the entire city of Gangcheng became warm, even at night. After nearly twenty minutes of work, Xiao Sheng was drenched in sweat. To ensure the safety of the entire villa, Xiao Sheng planned to install the last surveillance device between the two main bedrooms on the second floor, ensuring full coverage with no blind spots.

He climbed up the water pipe to the second floor, skillfully using his legs to hold onto the pipe while adjusting the device. He then used a screwdriver to quickly install it in a hidden spot. After completing this, Xiao Sheng whispered into the microphone:

"Scout, how's it looking? Any blind spots?"

The sound of Scout typing on a keyboard came from the earpiece. After about two minutes, Scout replied:

"The side of the balcony is a bit blurry. Adjust it to a 35-degree angle to improve clarity."

Following Scout's instructions, Xiao Sheng made several adjustments until Scout said 'OK.' Xiao Sheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to slide down when the window, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened. Tong Tong, holding a steel rod and with wet hair, stuck her head out, one hand holding her bathrobe, the other fiercely striking Xiao Sheng, who was hanging in the middle.

"Pervert! Peeping Tom!"

At the same time, Chen Shuyuan's window also opened. Chen Shuyuan, holding a comb, threw it without seeing who it was, then grabbed a mop from the bathroom and joined Tong Tong's attack.

Blocking their 'attacks' with 'flailing' movements, Xiao Sheng, unwilling to leave a bad impression, didn't go down but instead defended himself while explaining:

"It's me, Xiao Sheng. I'm working."

Upon hearing Xiao Sheng's voice, Chen Shuyuan clearly paused, but Tong Tong hit even harder, muttering:

"Great, no matter how much I guard, I can't guard against a thief in the house. You're stealing and peeping on me."

Seeing that she wasn't stopping and that Chen Shuyuan's eyes were filled with suspicion, Xiao Sheng, in one swift move, pushed away Tong Tong's steel rod, used his feet to propel himself, and leaped to Tong Tong's face. He grabbed the window edge and smoothly pushed Tong Tong, entering her bathroom.

This not only shocked Chen Shuyuan but also made the fearless Tong Tong pale. The 'pervert' she had been talking about was now staring at her with fierce eyes, and she was only wearing a bathrobe. If he used any force, everything would be exposed.

Tong Tong, retreating, looked at Xiao Sheng with fear, her face pale, and asked nervously:

"What are you going to do? I can fight, you know."

As she spoke, Tong Tong held her bathrobe with one hand and gestured with the other.

"I can be a pervert too."

Saying this, Xiao Sheng took a step towards her.
