Xue Li still had her arms wrapped around Jun Kai and looked like she was not going to let go. 

Never in a million years had he felt this helpless. He could feel his entire being filled with reluctance; reluctant to let her hug him and reluctant to shove her away.

By now all the housemaid and workers had gone and no one was lurking around. At least, no more misunderstandings.

Just then, the front door was opened in a hurry. 

Two anxious-looking figures hastily walked inside the Feng family household. 

While Xue Li had her back facing the door, Jun Kai had seen the person walking in. When he saw who it was, his eyes widened. On the other hand, the other figures had frozen in their steps. There were awkwardness and confusion placed all over the newcomers' face.

Not long, after Jun Kai had recovered, he quickly beckoned one of them to walk towards him. He then pointed at Xue Li's back and mouthed 'Help me!'

With that, the other person walked towards the two individuals. While the other quickly leapt out of the house and was gone in a split second.

"Ahem." The newcomer announced their arrival.

Only then did Xue Li slowly released her arms around Jun Kai. Though her heart was unwilling, she let go of Jun Kai. 

She turned around, expecting someone. There was a flash of haziness in her eyes that were not comprehensible to bare eyes before disappearing. When she faced the other person, the flash of killing intent was gone and a smile was revealed on her beautiful face.

One of her brows was raised up seductively, "Lin Cheng?" Her voice trailed off.

Jun Kai who had been behind Xue Li kept signalling Lin Cheng to keep things normal. Which to his orders, Lin Cheng did a good job. 

Lin Cheng slowly bowed. When he bowed, he took a deep breath to control himself. While Lin Cheng bowed, Xue Li had her sharp eyes following him.

When Lin Cheng raised up, he smiled politely as if nothing had happened.

Xue Li, on the other hand, was staring at Lin Cheng's arm for his arm was wrapped up in a cast and a shoulder support, "What happened to you?"

Lin Cheng was quick to answer, "Replying to miss, it was just a minor injury."

Xue Li smiled warmly, "That's good to know." Hmph, recovering from yesterday, I suppose. She covered her eyes from Lin Cheng by looking down. Well, such a shame that he had recovered this fast but in the end, it would not stop her and that Lord.

She turned around and smiled widely to Jun Kai and all the thoughts from before had quickly vanished, "I'll take my leave then, so you two can catch up." Xue Li then went closer to Jun Kai and then gave a small peck on his cheeks, "I'll go prepare my dress and send out the invitations. See you in two days time." Looking at Jun Kai's dumbfounded face, she smiled and ended with, "I'll make you surprised."

With that, Xue Li headed outside filled with joy, leaving the two men flabbergasted, especially Jun Kai. After Xue Li was gone, Jun Kai's face turned frigid. Enough of the acting he thought to himself.


He raised his hand to his cheek that must have a trace of her lipstick and wiped it emotionlessly. Just a peck and she was already this happy. He could not help but shake his head.

Lin Cheng quickly came forward to his boss with a perplexed face. However, he did not dare ask what was going on.

It was Jun Kai who had spoken first, "Lin Cheng," he began speaking even though his eyes were fixed outside the window in deep thoughts. He heaved a sigh and with his hand back in his pocket, he spoke, "Move the engagement in two days. Tell my father to prepare for it at the same hotel. I will get this done as fast as possible."

Lin Cheng looked up at his boss and was even more worried. This was very unlike his boss, "Sir, we haven't taken down the culprit's main headquarters, yet. I fear if you expose them, they would get away." Lin Cheng reminded his boss of the risk he was taking.

"Don't worry, I have the Long cuff sword. I'll use it to bring the culprit to me and expose them to the whole world. Justice will be met and then I will leave matters of the past to the past." Jun Kai spoke distantly as if he was not here.

"Sir, how about miss Mi Rong?" These says it was not miss Xue Li who his boss was so into but it was miss Mi Rong. If this happened, then he feared what miss Mi Rong would think.

With Mi Rong's name being brought up, it had brought Jun Kai deep in his thoughts. Finally he spoke, "Keep the engagement away from the Xuan group at any cost." Jun Kai had turned around to speak to Lin Cheng seriously, but Lin Cheng was full of questions.

Seeing Lin Cheng confused, Jun Kai smiled weakly, "Mi Rong is the Xuan leader."

Lin Cheng eyes widened almost immediately; it was almost the same expression Jun Kai had when he had found out. However, soon a bad feeling was creeping up in his heart as he saw his boss' heartbroken face. 

Something must have happened, he thought to himself. Especially with how his boss had treated miss Xue Li a moment ago, it seemed his boss was simply tormenting himself with full conscious that miss Xue Li was part of the past madam's accident. 

Despite moving on to miss Mi Rong, the guilt and the call for justice had been engraved in his boss' bones. It must be done or it might be the Feng family that might see their fall.

Looking at how tired his boss was physically, deep inside his boss must be breaking. How hard did his boss have to decide on doing this, sigh.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Lin Cheng had completely forgotten his purpose in coming to his boss that Fu Li, who had leapt outside quickly a moment ago, came inside. Fu Li bowed once towards his boss and quickly signalled Lin Cheng about the urgent matter. With that Lin Cheng came out from his thoughts and turned to speak to his boss who had turned his back towards them once again.

"Boss, about the Xuan group, sir." Lin Cheng carefully spoke.

Jun Kai then slowly turned around with his hand still in his pocket. 

"The Xuan group are under attacked, sir. Should we send help?" Lin Cheng felt foolish, this should not have been the question. Now, since miss Mi Rong was the Xuan leader, then it was their duty to protect them. If it was before his knowledge that miss Mi Rong was the Xuan leader, then this question would have been relevant. 

As for now, the answer would have been none other than a yes.

Jun Kai's expression was grave. Who could be so daring to attack the Xuan group, unless it was the culprit. He then quickly ordered his men, "Fu Li come with me. We're bringing the entire Ke group with us and protect them all. Lin Cheng, you go and prepare for the ceremony."

The hands inside his pockets were both clenched tightly. He was not going to lose another beloved person, not other his dead body.



Xue Li had gotten inside her red sports car and drove off to her apartment that she was staying. It did not take long for her to arrive at her apartment. When her red sports car drove inside the parking lot, she turned off the engines.

However, she did get out of her car immediately. Instead, she took out a phone and dialed a number.

"Wei, my Lord, the engagement will be in two days. I've dealt with Mi Rong just like we had planned. I will take care of this side and I hope your journey will go well."

The clad in purple who was on the other line of the smiled devilishly before replying, "Good." 

On the other side of the city, the clad in purple did not waste anymore time and took off. He was heading outside of the city straight for his target. He enjoyed hunting and this time he was going to catch a big fish.
