Who’s Going to be the Fiancee of Who?

"I understand." she do understand perfectly because they knew that even if she wasn't chosen for this mission she would retaliate and would still insist on doing this even if it costs her life.

"Your mission is to secure that they will not get a hold of the Zhengs, that is your top priority. We also have to make sure that they will not be able to fully set up their organization inside the country. And lastly, we have to know who are the real faces behind Spiders." although they phrased it like this, the two elders both knew the real reason why they need to do this.

"As for the specifics of the mission, it was already included in the file that would soon be sent to you and for further instructions Old Shen would be the one to do it."

"Yes, Chief Xu." they are speaking not as grandfather and grand daughter but as agent and direct commander.

"I just wanna remind you Falcon, once this mission started you are not allowed to engage with other agents' missions like you usually do. Your focus will solely be dedicated to this as it is one of the high priority ones of our organization."

"I know. You don't have to worry about anything, I will take this matter seriously and I will never waste this opportunity." five years, that's how long she had waited for this now that they are showing themselves in front of her she will do everything to seize this opportunity at any cost.

"You are also not allowed to contact Tiercel during this mission." hearing the last comment of Old Xu, Yan Qianxi was infuriated.

"Wait, wait, at least him right? We're partners!" Zheng Yichen who was constantly silent all throughout the ordeal was startled with the sudden outburst of Yan Qianxi. To think that the mere mention of 'Tiercel' was able to draw out a reaction from her means he is someone important.

"All agents of Cipher Zero works independently, no one knows the real faces of each other and the only thing you should know about them is their code name. In the history of Cipher Zero, you two are the only exemption but right now I will not allow it! He is also working on an important mission, it's not like you two were never separated." Yan Qianxi pouted and just like that they've switched back to their original selves without any title, just a spoiled grand daughter and a strict grandfather.

"That's not gonna work on me."

"Grandpa!"

"Yan Qianxi, I said no. It's too dangerous, you're usually rational about everything so why do you insist on having him by your side now?" of course she would not say the reason at all!

"Grandpa, you know it's futile right?"

The old man sighed, it's true. He knows that this last rule was futile knowing the capabilities of the two even if he were to interfere they would eventually found a way to contact each other. "Old Shen, of all the things Little Qianxi could inherit from you why does it have to be your stubbornness."

"Old Xu, it's my vigor that she inherited you mean."

"Ha! Haughty as always. Anyway, Qianxi I will only allow it if he was the one who contacts you first and you cannot disclose any information regarding this mission even if its him. Lastly, if I think even in the slightest that you cannot finish this I will pull you out of this mission. Although this is a high level mission, your life is more important. Are we clear?"

"Yes!"

"Okay then, that's it for today. Old Shen, I will leave the rest to you." he meant that the explanation for the specifics of her cover would be coming from Shen Jinyan.

"It's no problem, Old Xu after all I was the one who requested this so let me do my part."

"Okay."

After finishing whatever it is that he wanted to say, the space of Old Xu on the screen turned black before turning into a full screen of her Grandpa Shen.

This could only mean that the arrangements were done by Shen Jinyan and was only approved by Old Xu as the head of Cipher Zero.

Since the basics of the mission has already been laid out the only thing now would be what kind of cover would help her achieve her goals. She'd done a lot of disguise during her previous missions, she was once a waiter, she also pretended to be mistress who would go to mahjong houses that often frequented by mistresses of high ranking politicians to sniff some information and the likes.

Yan Qianxi wasn't the type to be so picky about her cover, anything that would benefit the mission she would gladly portray.

"Qian Qian, your best cover would be your real identity so that the other side would not be suspicious of you. Because of your circumstances, it is also possible that they already know who you are and only your connection to Cipher Zero remains a secret."

Utter confusion flooded her mind, she had never used her name in any mission she'd ever had because it is against the organization's protocol.

"That's not allowed Grandpa, you know that."

"I already talked to Old Xu about this and he gave me his approval, because for the entirety of this mission you will stay as Zheng Yichen's secretary."

Secretary? This is her first time doing this, later on she must research on the basic description of being a secretary so that her cover will not be blown.

Wait, if she will use her real identity does that make sense? Who would believe such crap, with her identity they would rather believe that she had usurped the CEO position instead of being a secretary of one.

"Grandpa, who would dare believe that Yan Qianxi will be reduced to being a secretary? Even if he's the most capable man in the city no one would still believe that." being the only heiress of the Yan Family, a prominent family in the corporate world, and the most loved princess of the Shen Family, a renowned military family no one would dare belittle her.

Ordinary folks would not realize who she is but the inner circle of the socialites were very much familiar with her name even though they don't know her face well enough, her name alone could stir trouble.

"I know, that's why for that reason you have to act as Zheng Yichen's fiancee only then would people believe that you became his secretary because you are trying to know more about him and that this is your way of getting to know each other."

Yan Qianxi on the other hand was not able to hear the rest of the sentence as if the only thing that she actually heard is the word fiancee. Fiancee? Who's going to be the fiancee of who?

With a frown he asked again for clarification, "Grandpa, what did you say?"

The old man on the other side of the screen felt the coldness from his grand daughter's stares. Really, provoking this little devil is not good for the health. He sighed and answered, "You will become Zheng Yichen's secretary and fiancee."

So she heard it right after all. She released an exasperated sigh.

Ha! I, Yan Qianxi will pretend to be engaged for a mission?! Now, this is outrageous.
