Gao Liang and Dong Jiao heard this statement and were deeply indignant. At that very moment, it happened to be that the director with a thick beard had just returned from the Cannes Film Festival in France, and had also just heard this remark—he was equally unconvinced. He turned to Gao Liang and said, "Cannes isn't anything special. I firmly believe in the far-sighted strategic vision of our Gao Dong. This time, our Gao Dong will definitely win the top prize at Cannes!" "Hah! Really? Keep dreaming! Hmph! Then prove it—meet me at the festival in one month! See who comes out on top!" Xiong nodded coldly, showing utter disdain. Gao Liang clenched his massive diamond fist and said, "Xiong! Don't underestimate me. This time, I'll definitely beat you!" "Well! You've gone all bold now. Then I'll treat you just as boldly—go to France and prove yourself! You'll only be able to hide and train in this mountain village of Shaolin!" Shawn was utterly arrogant, instantly rousing our high-lighted team's anger. To Dong Jiao's surprise, High-Light firmly grasped her hand, holding it tightly and said, "I'm taking my team to France right now—how about that?" "Great! Great! Truly impressive!" Shawn had been waiting for exactly this moment. Hearing that High-Light had been pushed by him to go to France, he felt absolutely thrilled. "My territory—my rules. High-Light, you're in for it! Ha! Don't blame me—this is all your doing! Ha! Dong Jiao and this slightly elusive beauty, Yu Di, right beside you—both of them are mine now. Once I'm in France, I'll have no trouble securing them!" With growing pride, Shawn imagined the two women bowing gracefully before him, willingly at his mercy. Shawn hadn't been able to cool off lately, so he'd been watching A-movies nonstop. The more he watched, the more his passion surged—his desire to be with beautiful women grew stronger, and he found himself increasingly restless and eager. In Sean’s heart, only two women currently deserved his full attention: Dong Jiao and Yu Di. All his strategies had been crafted specifically for these two. After Sean and Yu Di left, Dong Jiao turned her head slightly and asked Hao Liang, “Husband, are we really going to France?” “Certainly!” Hao Liang replied firmly. The bearded director shook his head and said, “General Hao, don’t go now! I’ve further investigated Sean’s background in France, and I’ve found his social network to be quite complex—connected to the French government, the underworld, as well as several international terrorist organizations. If we go, we’ll be stepping into a land of wolves!” Hao Liang responded, “Everything will turn out to be just smoke and mirrors. Everything is just a paper tiger! I believe we will win!” “Husband! But I’m so worried! After all, you’re the chairman of my Aspiring God Group. What if something happens to you—then the entire group…” Dong Jiao truly grew concerned for her husband. Gao Liang looked at her deeply affectionate, supporting her delicate shoulders and said, "My second lady! For you! I'm willing to risk everything!" "Husband! I'm truly grateful for your constant presence these past days, but I don't want you to take such a big risk! I don't want you to—!" Before Gao Liang finished speaking, he made a gesture and turned to her, saying, "Come with me! Right away to France!" Gao Liang felt her nimble hands tightly held in his grasp, and she didn't pull them free, letting this beloved man hold them firmly. Gao Liang took Gao Jiao on a double journey—directly boarding a flight to Paris. When Xiong carried Yu Di, as soon as the plane touched down at Paris airport, he immediately revealed his stern demeanor, saying to Yu Di, "While I'm using the restroom, call me right away—Frank, hurry!" Next flight is 322. Target: highlight him. There's also a stunning woman beside him. You must eliminate the man named Highlight and then take that woman hostage. Once successful, you'll receive a bonus of 1 million francs! "Got it, Sean!" Upon receiving the assignment, the killer named Frank immediately took a sturdy AK-47 rifle and climbed to the rooftop of a tall building at the airport, using his scope to track people exiting the aircraft. Based on Sean's photo of Highlight, Frank quickly identified him. Man, that woman beside him is absolutely gorgeous—she even outshines our French beauties. Isn't she the lead actress from the recently popular French drama *Dreams of the Red Chamber*? Goodness! I'm keeping her alive. Still, that guy—so handsome he's practically dazzling—must go. As Highlight and Dong Jiao approached within a hundred paces, Frank began firing. A sharp "crack"—the deadly bullets shot straight for Highlight's forehead. It turns out to be quite coincidental that Dong Jiao is not used to flying. She has been feeling unwell, and Gao Liang has been so concerned that he has taken exceptional care of her throughout the journey. As soon as they step off the plane, Dong Jiao seems even more exhausted—this isn't because of her health, but rather due to the rigorous training Gao Liang has recently imposed on her. She has been standing in standing posture for long hours without any rest, leaving her extremely fatigued. While Gao Liang is supporting her, a thief notices the well-dressed Gao Liang and decides to strike. Ha! After circling around for so long without catching a single target, he sees a Chinese tourist arriving in Paris and immediately sees his opportunity. He believes Chinese tourists abroad are particularly vulnerable—because Chinese people abroad often feel disadvantaged, not because China isn't strong enough on the international stage, but simply because they are still relatively weak in the global context. Although over the past two or three decades, through nationwide reforms and opening-up, the country has significantly strengthened its economic strength, it remains, overall, the largest developing nation internationally, still falling short of France, a developed country. Laozi begins with you. The French thief, pretending to be in a hurry, collides head-on with Gao Qiang, who is supporting Dong Jiao, aiming to distract Gao Qiang's attention with the impact and then swiftly snatch the wallet from his waist. "Bang!" At that moment, Frank's bullet strikes precisely, hitting the thief right in the back. "Ah! My goodness!" A terrifying hole appears in the thief's back, from which blood gushes out. Gao Qiang's eyes flash with brilliance, quickly raises his head, and naturally activates his spiritual sight, spotting a clear, aimed gun barrel on the opposite building pointing directly at him. Oh no—someone has launched a assassination attempt! Gao Qiang immediately takes hold of the dazed, fainting young lady Dong Jiao and begins running. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" Frank is a formidable killer, particularly renowned in the Paris region as a master of the black-market assassination—every single stab he makes finds its mark, never missing. To protect Dong Jiao, Gao Liang was shot in the chest, fortunately the bullet struck his belt. Dong Jiao was terrified, thrashing wildly and crying uncontrollably in Gao Liang’s arms, for she is a simple, straightforward girl who had never before encountered such a terrifying gunshot wound.
