Chapter 33: A Special Mission
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"So, second brother hates evil like sin. I thought that second brother never cared about such things."
Qiao Jing didn't answer and just looked out the window.
Qiao Yue noticed that Qiao Jing's assistant was looking at her in the rearview mirror and raised an eyebrow.
"Master Jing only cares about it because of Master Yue!" The assistant muttered under his breath.
Qiao Yue's eyebrows were raised even higher, but the assistant's seat was kicked hard.
Chu Jia was waiting to welcome Qiao Yue in front of the Yayi Club. She had been very happy in the past two days. Not only did the club sign a big contract, but she also heard that Boss Li was not doing well.
There's an auction at the club tonight, followed by a masquerade ball.
Just as Chu Jia had said, Yayi Club was one of KA's untainted businesses. Therefore, even though it was a masquerade ball, people would only get to know each other after they removed their masks; the club would not provide any illegal services.
Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing were escorted to a VIP waiting room when they got out of the car. The auction was scheduled to start at 6 pm. The two of them did their own things in the waiting room; things were harmonious if one ignored Qiao Jing's probing eyes from time to time.
When it was time, Qiao Yue was ready to go to the auction hall with Qiao Jing. But as she casually looked around, she saw Qiao Xin walking into the club holding a man's arm.
Qiao Yue immediately pulled back and closed the door.
Qiao Jing was suddenly knocked into by Qiao Yue; he lost his balance and pressed Qiao Yue against the other side of the door.
"What's wrong?"
As soon as Qiao Jing opened his mouth, Qiao Yue covered it with her hand. The door didn't close tightly, it was left ajar. Qiao Yue looked out through the gap.
Indeed, she wasn't wrong. That person really was Qiao Xin.
Qiao Yue seemed to have seen the man next to Qiao Xin somewhere before, and her sixth sense told her that the man wasn't a good person.
Just as Qiao Yue was trying to recall who this person was, Qiao Jing's eyes were fixed on her.
The two of them were so close that Qiao Jing seemed to be able to smell the faint fragrance on Qiao Yue. His lips were covered by Qiao Yue's warm but slightly rough palm, and his eyes reflected a lover's appearance.
Qiao Yue's skin was delicate, her figure slender, giving off the vibe that she's as weak as water. However, after spending a few days with her, Qiao Jing's impression of Qiao Yue had changed.
Having been in the business world for many years, Qiao Jing had long known how to read people, but he couldn't understand Qiao Yue.
Qiao Yue's entire being seemed to be shrouded in fog. She seemed to be smiling at everyone, but in reality, she didn't care about anyone.
Qiao Jing's lips suddenly let out a hot breath which landed in Qiao Yue's palm.
Qiao Yue's eyes widened. The close distance between them stopped her breathing for a second.
Looking into Qiao Jing's mesmerizing eyes, Qiao Yue's heart skipped a beat and she looked away.
"I saw Qiao Xin." Qiao Yue spoke only after she closed the door tight.
"Qiao Xin? With third uncle and third aunt?" Qiao Jing also looked away and asked.
"No, she's with a man I don't know."
Qiao Jing frowned slightly when he heard this. When he looked at Qiao Yue again, he noticed that her strange expression, so he called the waiter to bring them to their seats.
The two of them arrived at a private room on the second floor. Qiao Jing's eyes scanned the floor below but he didn't see Qiao Xin.
"You didn't see wrong?"
Qiao Jing was a little confused. He couldn't figure out why Qiao Xin would come to this place.
"I didn't see wrong."
Qiao Yue saw Qiao Xin's face clearly when she walked in with the man. She kept thinking about the man and felt like she had seen him somewhere before.
"Forget it, let's watch the auction first and look for her at the ball."
Despite Qiao Jing's words, his hands weren't idle. He quickly sent a text message to his assistant.
Qiao Yue wasn't idle either. Although she agreed with Qiao Jing, she turned around and asked Chu Jia to meet her.
A few minutes before the auction began, Qiao Yue used the excuse of going to the bathroom and sneaked into Chu Jia's office.
Chu Jia's office was under strict surveillance. Nothing discussed in this room could be leaked.
"Boss, why did you ask to see me in such a hurry?" Chu Jia asked as soon as she arrived at the office.
Qiao Yue, who was sitting in the office chair, slowly raised her eyes. The smile on her face was no longer there.
"What mission did Godfather give you?"
"Boss, what are you saying?" Chu Jia laughed.
"I am not going to repeat myself."
Actually, Qiao Yue was just testing her, but from Chu Jia's reaction, she knew that something would happen tonight.
