章節 224: Mission
Han Meixiu sighed and tried to change the topic.
"What were you doing when I came in?"
"I was writing on the baby's journal."
The young woman's attention suddenly perked up. She stood up and went to his table.
"You will suffer more." Liu Zijian whispered as he let her sat on his lap while flipping the journal.
Skimming the content, Han Meixiu paused as she felt Liu Zijian rested his head on her shoulder.
"It won't be easy for you. I've read that having twins would be twice harder."
"But, Jian.. I won't suffer alone. I have you to help me, right?"
"Of course."
"Then, I'll be fine."
Liu Zijian didn't answer. He only tightened his embrace as a response.

"Are you sure these are all the details available?" Liu Zilong asked Ye Ming.
"Yes, First Young Master Liu." Ye Ming answered.
One of the property of Imperial Hotels in the south was being used as a place of drug dealings. Although it wasn't the first time happened in Liu's recreational properties, they were always strict with illegal dealings especially if its drugs.
Since the loyalty of employees was yet to be firmly established, this kind of 'problem' was expected to happen sooner than later.
Although Liu Zijian would probably better in this aspect, Liu Zilong could pull it off as well. The two brothers method was slightly different but the result would be the same.
Remembering the conversation they had earlier, Liu Zilong felt incredibly emotional.
In few months time, their family is going to have two little cuties. Earlier, he was already planning to 'borrow' the baby for a certain amount of time. But thinking that his mother might be his rival, he could only yield.
But now, they're going to have two. Then, for sure they wouldn't 'fight who will take care of who, right?
For the meantime, he should build his favorable points. He still have at least a year to do so or probably more.
Liu Zilong didn't waste anymore time and directly ordered his men to move. If everything would be fine, he'd be back in a week's time. He would definitely not miss the baby shower.

"When will the result come out?" 92 asked Red. The two were standing near the door of the dining area.
It was already late at night and no one was loitering around except for the two of them.
"I don't know yet. The time given to the client to choose is around a month."
"Do you have the details of the mission?"
"It will be given once we are selected. Why?"
"I'm planning to do a minor one before the result." 92 responded. She didn't want to waste her time waiting. Even minor missions could give her few points, it's still better than nothing. Besides, it could also help her hone her skills.
"Suit yourself. Pick the easy and short ones." Red answered dismissively and turn around to leave.
When Han Mingxia was on her way to her room, she passed by near the usual meeting room and the door was slightly open. It was normal that people will use the room from time to time no matter what time of the day it is.
Usually, she would just pass and not care about who were inside, but she heard the Red's name thus she stopped and leaned on the wall.
"Right, Red is also in the list. I've heard she will go with that newbie." A woman with flirtatious voice said.
"Tsk! I don't know if she's running a charity or she's just over confident." Another one said, she owned a more stable and firm voice compared to the first one.
"She can afford to be confident anyway. Her only rival is already dead." The other one responded with a bit of regret.
"Dead? Dark is dead?" There was a sound of surprise in the other person's voice.
"Yeah. I've heard he saved someone and died. I don't know all the details though."
"It's normal to die during our mission. It's just too bad. He was so good and handsome, too."
"It wasn't during the mission. He already finished his mission by that time. I knew it because I saw him reporting."
"Oh, then it was personal?"
Han Mingxia decided to leave when she saw someone coming. Although she wanted to listen more, she didn't want to attract unnecessary attention.
People were already weary about her because Red is her partner. If they would find out that she's eavesdropping, then she would just drag Red's reputation down and she would probably suffer.
She could already feel the hostility of some people but since she would always stay inside her room, she was able to avoid those discriminating gazes.
It was a good thing that those people didn't pester her in her room. At least they're decent to give her privacy.
After arriving in her own room, Han Mingxia reviewed the document she got from Chen Dewei's mansion. She checked thoroughly if there's any indication of the word 'Dark'.
Except from this document that contained the detail mission of her late husband, she didn't get anything anymore.
Although she tried to find out using his name, she didn't get any other information. It was simple, the name she knew was only an alias.
Unfortunately, there was nothing related to the word dark in the documents. Han Mingxia inhaled deeply. She normally wanted to rush to Red's room but decided not to.
What would she say?
"Hi Red, do you know Dark? He's my husband, I'm looking for his family. Do you know them?"
Ridiculous! She scolded herself.
Han Mingxia could already imagine Red's expression.
Also, even if Red is familiar with the person named Dark, so what? Everyone in this organization didn't actually know personal details of each other. Red isn't an exemption.
Again, the only way to find out would be getting to the top and having resources.
'I should check available missions tomorrow.' Han Mingxia murmured as she closed her eyes.
Inside the leader's private room, Zhang Huiling was reviewing the videos and reports she just received.
Her eyes lingered on Red's expression on the screen after pressing the pause button. It seemed that this person is getting swayed emotionally.
Was it wrong to pair her up with Han Mingxia? But other than Red, she couldn't find someone with a clean background to train Han Mingxia.
Zhang Huiling sighed.
as she looked at her own table, one particular letter caught her attention. It was the design of the report about her baby.
She quickly opened it and read.
'Twins, huh.'
She smiled softly.
'Maybe I can get to play with one?' She murmured.
Obviously, the couple wasn't aware that there were already people planning to snatch their babies even before they were born.
