Chapter 115 - Do You Have A Boyfriend (1/2)

The boss of the place was a thirty-five-year-old man with a very unique style. It looked as if he had just rolled out of bed and came to see her, his hair was messy, his shirt was half-buttoned and the way he walked with a lazy hump on his shoulder.

One look would make others believe that this person was carefree and homeless. However, she knew what this man was capable of. To manage this much of fortune and hiding under a slum area was not an easy task.

Yue Wan thought for a while about the person in front of her. It really was best not to underestimate him. This man was definitely not as simple and calm as he appeared on the outside.

Sitting down in the big chair, the man yawned, his long eyelashes brushed across his cheeks as he closed his eyes briefly. An ȧssistant entered the room carrying a tray of warm tea, he set it on the table between the two of them and served both his Boss and Yue Wan some tea. Once he was done, the Boss waved his hand for his ȧssistant to leave them alone.

Before Yue Wan could speak, a cold voice threw an irrelevant question at her, ”Do you have a boyfriend?”

Yue Wan's face was slightly dumbfounded for a moment before replying, ”No.”

He rubbed his sore neck, he opened his deep, black eyes and observed her with his head ċȯċked to one side, ”Then why are there so many dark guards around my house?” He raised his eyebrows in a questioning manner.

Yue Wan's lips pulled back as she turned her head over, seeming unwilling to accept the action of her overprotective brother. 'Big Brother!'

That man chucked, ”Call me Brother Yun, and you are?”

Yue Wan cleared her throat and replied, ”Young Miss Yue.”

His eyes widen for a fraction of a second before turning back to normal. Looking her over again he asked: ”So tell me, why are you searching for the owner of this ring?”

Looking straight into the man's eyes, Yue Wan responded with her crystal clear voice, ”I already know who the owner is, and he is sitting right in front of me.”

When these words were out, Brother Yun had a stunned expression on his face and his eyes that looked at Yue Wan were filled with deep meaning. Hearing from her tone, it was as if she was damn sure it belongs to him. However, he never knew this woman before today. How come she was so very familiar with his family heirloom?

”Be that as it may… But, how are you so sure that it belongs to me?” Brother Yun asked again.

Yue Wan took a sip of the tea and touched the rim of the hot cup. Her powerful voice exposed what he was trying to hide from the light. ”The ring belongs to one of the aristocrat's families of this city. Or, to be more precise, it was the heirloom of the Xie Family.”

She looked up as her golden gazed pierced into him, ”Am I right? Mr. Xie Lingyun, Owner of the Black Market.”

Yue Wan's words were airtight, causing Xie Lingyun's feigned smile to stiffen.

In her past life, that person stole this ring from her and took all the credit. And as the leader of the Black Market, Xie Lingyun helped her as her shadow to defeat the Yue family. That's why, when she was accused of Xiao Ran's murder, they found every evidence pointing to her.

However, this time she will tear the culprits mask off in front of everyone, on that same fateful day.
