章節 239: Unexpected Visitor
Zhang Huiling reviewed the details of her own investigation about her parents death.
Some missing puzzles were filled in but the entire picture became more confusing. Originally she thought Chen Dewei was the mastermind of their supposed to be accident. But looking at her newly found evidence, it seemed not to be the case.
Earlier, when she started her pursuit of the truth behind it, she already had doubts that a young man could implicate the death of her parents.
But as she gathered more and more details, the information seemed to be pointing towards him. Thus she believed he was really the one behind it all.
There's got to be someone else who's good at covering up their tracks and Chen Dewei was a good pawn to use.
She sighed as she massage the temples of her head.
For the time being, she should respond to her daughter's query.
Even though she wanted to call out 92 to interrogate her to know the full details of what happened, she couldn't. She was currently in training for the big mission.
The only thing she found out was 92 took punishment for violating a certain rule. As for what she violated, it only stated 'failing to be in character for the entire mission'.
It was actually within her expectations but to think that the First Young Master Liu would be involved, that's quite a different story.
It's possible that he was interested in 92 because she's different from the women he normally meet. That kind of fleeting interest would eventually fade through time. It's good that 92 is currently in training and won't be available until the following year.
Provided that the mission would be successful and she could get it out alive, then she could accept Liu Zilong's request.
There's still plenty of time. The only constant thing in this world is change. Who knows that maybe after just a few months, Liu Zilong's interest will change?
Zhang Huiling didn't need to worry about it for now.

"Brother Long, It's me..." Han Meixiu said the moment her call connected.
She just received her mother's response and the first thing she did was call her brother in law.
"That was fast." Liu Zilong said after hearing the voice of Han Meixiu. He was correct to seek her help.
Han Meixiu chuckled a little before speaking again. "92 is currently in a mission. She will be available starting next year."
"Next year?" Liu Zilong asked again to confirm if he heard her correctly.
"Yes. Next year." Han Meixiu repeated her words.
"I see. Thank sister in law."
After ending the call, Liu ZIlong fell in a deep thought. 92 disappeared quickly last time maybe because of her next mission. If she seemed to be fully booked, then it meant she's quite talented.
In order to enhance his own capability, Liu Zilong decided to start training again. He has been busy helping to expand the Liu's business to other countries that he stopped his usual training. Since Liu Zijian asked him to preside while Han Meixiu is still pregnant, then he could also squeeze some time to train his fighting abilities.
By next year, he could turn the table around.
He smiled while the thought of subduing the woman float on his mind.

"Young Mistress, you have a visitor." One of the house helpers informed Han Meixiu when she was about to go back to her room.
Madam Liu went out to assist some people and Liu Zijian was also in one of the hotels inspecting the progress of the project he approved a year ago.
Han Meixiu turned around and looked at the person to check if she was really talking to her. Even though she clearly heard the term 'young mistress' she could never think of someone to visit her in Q City.
Her only friend was in K Country, Li Xiaozhi. The person who usually visits her unexpectedly was currently in a mission, Han Mingxia. So who could be her visitor?
Cousin Yu? But normally her cousin would call her first to secure an appointment and he would never popped up in front of the Liu's mansion.
The woman probably read her reaction so she continued. "Young Mistress, Miss Liu Yu Yao wants to talk to you."
"Oh." Han Meixiu remembered that woman. "I'll see her in a while."
After the helper went back to inform her guest, Han Meixiu continued to walk towards her room to get her cardigan. She wondered why the woman who wanted to pick a fight with her suddenly visited her.
Although Liu Yu Yao spouted a lot of nonsense before, she didn't pay attention to it. Words alone could never harm her as she's used to receive unwanted criticisms. As for the part when she almost fell, she knew it wasn't intentional.
Didn't Liu Yu Yao already apologize to her before they let the Old Liu's manor? Why is she here now?
As for Liu Yu Yao who was fidgeting in the living room, she was still having an internal debate.
Right after her family came back from the Old Liu's house, she received an endless scolding. She already got the core reason why and she also regretted what she did.
Besides, her grandmother words kept on repeating on her mind. To put it simply, her life is in danger. Of course, she was overthinking it. But no one could blame her.
She was stared at menacingly by Liu Zijian and the only possible person who could save her in her situation gave her a warning instead of pacifying her fears.
Thinking about what happened to the Third Young Master Chen after the 'scandal', Liu Yu Yao believed that there's a possibility that her own cousin orchestrated it to take revenge because he coveted his wife.
In all honesty, she was overestimating Liu Zijian and painting him all black due to the rumors she's been hearing and her own experience.
Both Han Meixiu and Liu Zijian didn't actually take seriously what happened. Of course that time the young man was indeed angered out of worry, but later on when Han Meixiu explained, he was able to calm down and let the incident pass.
But Liu Yu Yao didn't know about it. For the past days she didn't go out of their house. She even wanted to buy a bulletproof vest to protect herself. But after getting tired of worrying endlessly, she decided to try another approach.
Hugging the big thigh of Han Meixiu. These days, the most important thing is to survive.
"You're looking for me?" Han Meixiu asked the moment she arrived. She needed to call the attention of the young woman who seemed to be lost in outer space.
"Ah, cousin in law. I...I… want to apologize about last time…"
"You already did."
"I...yeah..But…"
"Don't waste both of our time, tell me what is the reason for your sudden visit."
Liu Yu Yao inhaled deeply. Before coming here, she already thought what gift she could give. But she could only think of material things.
Who is Han Meixiu? She's not lacking with any material things she could think of. Love, attention? She clearly saw how she was treated by the Liu Family.
"I'm here to give you something." LIu Yu Yao said while trying to make her voice firm. She deeply hoped her 'gift' will be accepted.
"Give me something? I don't think I lack something, though.." Han Meixiu answered while being puzzled.
"You do." Liu Yu Yao answered proudly.
"Ow?" Feeling amused, Han Meixiu asked.
"You lack friends! I know that you only have one true friend. So, I'm offering myself to be your true friend." Liu Yu Yao said in one go, afraid that Han Meixiu would cut her midway. As she stared at the other woman she was actually blushing.
"What?" A dumbfounded Han Meixiu stared blankly at Liu Yu Yao while she processed what she just said. She actually choked and coughed several times. If she was drinking, she would have sprayed the liquid towards the woman.
"I'll be your friend. I can promise that I will never betray you. Otherwise…" Liu Yu Yao continued her speech as if she's selling a fine product and her client must really avail it.
"Hold on, hold on…" Han Meixiu raised her hand to stop the blabbering woman. "I don't need another true friend. When it comes to friends, I believe in a quality over quantity matter. Having only one friend is more than enough for me."
"No! In life you need at least two! If you'll eventually fall out one day, at least you still have an extra, a reserve…"
"Listen, Yu Yao. I appreciate your thoughtfulness but.."
"How about giving me a trial period? While you're still here in Q City, I'll be your friend. I'll accompany you anywhere you want, talk with you until the morning, share videos, news, I can even help you increase your followers and …"
Han Meixiu massaged her head. The woman in front of her clearly didn't want to stop unless she would agree. Since it would only be for a few more days, she could probably allow it. She also didn't want to bother her Mommy Yi as her mother in law also needed to train some people thus she couldn't stay at home every single day.
It's not a bad idea to let someone accompany her for a short while.
"Alright. But I don't want to go out. You can just come here and accompany me."
Liu Yu Yao's expression suddenly lit up. She succeeded!
"Of course! I will come here everyday! Should I wake you up when.."
"No need. Just come here after lunch." Han Meixiu didn't want to wake up early.
"I will bring delicious food for you to taste. Q City has a lot of good stores that…"
"Alright. You can. Go for now.." Han Meixiu wanted to retract her decision but seeing the overly enthusiasm of the other person, she didn't really have the heart to break it.
"O..okay.. I'll be back tomorrow. I'll bring the famous cheese tart in Ling Long Bakery." Liu Yu Yao excitedly said. It's actually her favorite. Though the line to buy that tart is always long, she could buy it if she will get there as early as possible. If Han Meixiu would like it, then they will have a common thing they could talk about.
When Liu Yu Yao left, Han Meixiu finally felt relaxed. That fellow was noisy. She remembered Li Xiaozhi. Unlike her best friend that talked to nag at her, Liu Yu Yao talked endlessly to curry her favor.
In the next few days, she would eventually regret her decision. She would experience turbulent days. Liu Yu Yao is an endless chatterbox.
