章 145: Bees and Butterflies
Han Meixiu who was suddenly enclosed in a warm embraced became confused for a second.
Her face gently lifted and a soft kiss was planted on her unexpecting lips.
"We'll take them one at a time. The darkness would be our advantage. Don't leave my side."
Han Meixiu could obviously feel his breathe and her face was getting warm as if it caught a fire. She nodded in agreement.
"Aim to disarm. Kill only if necessary." Liu Zijian reminded the young woman. He hoped she wouldn't really resort to killing someone.
"But if things won't go well, promise me one thing. Run as far as you could and be safe." He continued and planted another soft kiss again.
Han Meixiu didn't like what she heard and wouldn't promise thus she pushed the young man away after the kiss.
Liu Zijian understood her gesture but didn't retract his words. She was clearly displeased but one of them should be able to make to the safe area.
He just silently pulled her towards the direction where they disembarked earlier.
If people would be looking for them, they would be more or less scattered. If they're using a source of light then they would be easier to spot on.

Chen Dewei after the leaving the meeting room, didn't look good. His expression got even worse when he heard the voicemail of Doctor Su.
As they walked towards the parking area he asked his assistant.
"Any news from the mansion?"
"Third Young Master Chen, we already sent some additional people. There was a problem with communication a little earlier thus the information that a group of people infiltrated the mansion was delayed."
"What?!" His mansion was not like the other two residences that were known to the public that he normally stayed. It's actually considered a 'secret base' and very few people knew its existence.
Couldn't this night get worse?
He couldn't help but think if luring him out of the mansion was a deliberate move. His eyes narrowed and darkened as if wanting to imitate the darkness of a moonless night.
"The other residences were also infiltrated."
"Who?" His eerie calm voice made the man shivered as he felt contained anger within.
"They were still confirming. But it would probably be from the Liu's."
Lui's? It meant the LCG?
Who would dare to touch his residences for no apparent reason?
'Liu Zijian? Even after his preparation he still suspected me? Great!'
A gnashing of teeth could be heard as Chen Dewei tried to control himself. He more or less could predict that the Second Young Master of Liu Family already made another move and not just in those residences. He had to confirm something.
"Where is the young mistress?"
The question was the one the assistant didn't really want to hear.
"They're still looking for her..." The assistant answered and with a straight face, he prepared himself to be punished. But instead of any form of punishment, he heard his boss murmured.
"Hah! Nice move Liu Zijian."
Madam Bai and that man probably ganged up on him.
With only suspicion, Liu Zijian might not make his move against him. But if the middle-aged woman informed him with what she saw, then it's a different story.
To think that she needed something from him. If earlier he was considering it, now his answer would only be a 'no'.
"I don't care about the situation in other residences. Did those 'guests' already left the mansion?"
"Nobody spotted them yet leaving. They probably still inside the area. We already closed all the possible entrances and the search was still on going. There were also some encounters in the area."
"Good. Ensure Han Meixiu safety when you find her. As for the 'guests' kill them all..."
"Understood."
When the assistant was making a call as he strode towards their car, he suddenly stopped.
"What is it?" Chen Dewei sternly looked at the man.
"Third Young Master Chen, the study room was turned upside down."
*
Back in the meeting room, a middle-aged woman was still leisurely sitting alone in a light colored sofa. Her midnight blue dress made her presence exceptionally alluring. The smoke coming from her cigarette that clouded faintly her smirking face with a deep burgundy colored lip gave her an aura of a common wicked villain.
Her looks wasn't special but her eyes could express multiple emotions at a time.
Right now, she was in deep thought as she played the long cigarette holder, moving it sideways in silent rhythm.
When a man came in who was dressed in a dark suit, she raised one of her well-defined eyebrows.
"The Third Young Master Chen already left."
"Hmmm...Any news?"
"Madam Bai, the group already assembled in the place but the duo was still not there."
"Oh? That's interesting. I don't think Red could be delayed..." She amusingly said.
"It's probably because her partner's just a newbie." The man answered. The woman who was called '92' recently joined and tonight was actually her first 'assignment' outside K Country.
The assignment directly came from their leader thus they could only obey even though a lot of people questioned the newbie's capability.
She was also partnered to one of their best people called 'Red'. He would be deceiving himself if that action didn't arose enviousness from other newbies.
The woman nodded and released a puff of smoke.
The man didn't know if she agreed or not to what he just said.
"You want to say something else?" Madam Bai asked when she saw that the man was seemingly restless after stating his opinion.
"LCG also infiltrated the place."
The woman stopped and her eyes widened a bit in surprise. She continued to look at the man to let him elaborate his report.
"The Second Young Master Liu came in person."
A laugh rang out the entire room.
The man, although extremely puzzled by the sudden laughter of his boss, maintained his calmness. He would never understood this woman.
Her reactions would always surprise him and not in a good way.
"Did he get what he wanted?"
"He's still inside the compound."
"Hmmm.. Should we help him get out?"
For the hundred times, the man wanted to cry as his boss was clearly being difficult to understand.
He thought she didn't like Liu Family but why was she offering help? Then again, his thoughts in the end did not surface on his facial reaction. He should really stop understanding her logic.
"..."
"Tell the group to escort him out and don't forget to tell him this..." The woman whispered something to the man.
"Alright." The man said and left the room to carry out the order.
When she was alone again, Madam Bai placed down her cigarette on the table.
"I never expected you could attract bees and butterflies, my dear. And they're not really ordinary..." She softly whispered and her eyes revealed a solemn expression with a painful touch of longing.
