Chapter 127 - A fathers intervention. (1/2)

Zheng Ren sighed as he looked at the stocked doc.u.ments on top of his desk. He skimmed through some papers and sighed one more time, realizing that he had to go through all of this. He got his pen at the side then got the paper and started signing them. It was all and well that he only had to skim through it since he had been doing the job for a lot of years. However, it was no longer entertaining to him as he would only sign them.

As he was signing papers, suddenly he stopped writing his name midway. He felt something different in the air—as of something ominous is happening. He stood up slowly as he got a feel of the breeze around him.

In their realm, Zheng Ren is also known as a powerful man with a great title so with his senses keen, he would already sense something unusual—like of his realm. Noticing their boss' change of mood, his assistant hesitantly walked up to him but got the courage to speak to him.

”Is something the matter, Master?” Zheng Ren only shook his head. He looked at him with serious eyes, then with his low voice spoke to him, his voice echoing—resounding around and inside the room.

”Check on Yan Mei.”

”Yes, Sir.” With the order given to him by their boss, the assistant contacted Shadow. They knew that he is with Yan Mei as of the moment so through the communicator that they both had, the assistant signaled, getting his attention.

”Shadow, the Master, would want to know what is happening with Miss Yan right this moment,” he asked, another voice at the other end replying to answer his

”Well,…” he trailed off then he sighed a little then continued speaking.

”She is in New York, inside a room,” he briefly answered, making Zheng Ren's eyes flash towards his assistant. From where he is, he could clearly hear their conversation. He walked towards his assistant slowly, then when he was near him, spoke, in order to talk to Shadow.

”What is she exactly doing now, Shadow?”

Hearing his foreboding voice, Shadow gulped slightly but still answered their supreme master's question.

”I will look into it, Master.”

With that, their conversation ended for a moment. Shadow successfully infiltrated Edward Wu's mansion and the moment he did, he put a mask on to conceal his identity from Edward Wu.

The moment footsteps echoed in the room, Edward Wu, who was trying his best to open the door instinctively turned back to see a masked man. ”

”H-how the hell? Who are you and why are you inside!?”

Ignoring Edward Wu, Shadow pressed his ear against the door, then he heard the groans and wails of people inside as he heard Yan Mei's voice roaring like a lion. He clicked his tongue then further ignoring Edward Wu, he ran away then reported to Zheng Ren what is happening.

”You incompetent fools! You were called doctors for a reason and were given the profession! Did you have it with the intention to fail!?”

Remembering the words he had heard filled with venom earlier, a shiver ran along his spine.

”M-Master it seems Miss...she is torturing the doctors upon knowing about the death of her husband.”

”What?” Zheng Ren's eyes turned deadpan as he gritted his teeth.

His hands beside him turned into tight fists as he decided to come right there and then... In an instant. With alarm plastered on his face, he turned on his communicator again and talked in a rather rushed manner.

”Where is she? Give me an address.”

Shadow gave Zheng Ren the address.

In a blink of an eye, Zheng Ren disappeared from his office, surprising the assistant that was right in front of him.

”What the—” Even though he was aware of their master's power, he still gets surprised every now and then since it is not a usual thing to happen in their realm. Zheng Ren appeared in the room where Yan Mei is.

She didn't notice him but when the doctors gasped, she instinctively looked back, her eyes wavering as she saw a powerful man in front of her.

'Why is he here?!'

”Yan Mei.” He only said his name, but Yan Mei stopped for a while as Zheng Ren started assessing their surroundings. He saw blood on the floor and he saw the cuts and bruises on the doctors.

Zheng Ren's eyebrows furrowed as he wondered what had triggered her to act in such manner. When his eyes landed on Lei Zhao's lifeless body on the bed, the unsaid question had already been answered.

He sighed, then he shook his head as he just stared at Yan Mei, silent.

”Oh!” Yan Mei laughed as she c.o.c.ked her head to the side.

”Have you come to join in the fun, father,” she asked, her lips curling into a mischievous smirk. Her father, Zheng Ren frowned when he realized that his daughter Yan Mei had completely lost control of her sanity.
