You don’t have to thank me.” Ning Xi hugged the white tiger and did not want to let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take care of my white tiger?” Han Xiao was taken aback, unsure about what Ning Xi was talking about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you kidding me?” Han Xiao’s mouth twitched. She wanted his tiger and asked him not to thank her.

Unlike Ning Xi who was smitten with the white tiger, he could not sleep well at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was afraid that he might end up in the tiger’s belly if he fell asleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xiao stayed for several days.

If possible… well… could you… call me Grandfather?” Jace mumbled nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind and gentle old man, who was also her idol, had asked her to call him Grandfather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could never turn down a request like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandfather Jace,” called Ning Xi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you…” There was an indescribable expression in Jace’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wonder what it is that you want to talk to me about today?” Ning Xi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, it’s about the candidates for the male assassin, Carl.” Jace finally got to the main topic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi remembered that in the movie “Assassin”, there was a male assassin called Carl. As an important secondary character, he was an assassin who disguised himself as a woman. He was on good terms with the female lead and they always went on missions together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The new Carl has had some changes in his background. He’s a mysterious Oriental assassin, Chinese to be exact, highly capable, and just below the female assassin in terms of skills. I think it’ll be suitable to scout for a character like this in China,” explained Jace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The changes in the new “Assassin” was minimal, and Ning Xi fully understood the changes made in this part.\u003C\u002Fp>",627,"2026-06-06T10:49:20.072Z",1,"novelbin.me","5826ab59fa5f73dd9f723b62220470fd916aca7d202d8aac3a9f2080e260d3e2","hidden-marriage-chapter-1966","hidden-marriage-chapter-1964",2163,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhidden-marriage-cover.jpg"]
