167 Chasing A shadow (2/2)
He parked the car in front of that ruins and got out of the car.
They stood in a straight line as a stick-queue except for the Butler who stood a step forward. They bowed in respect and stood with their left hands holding their right wrist and their heads bowed.
He indicated the Butler to come forward and report.
The Butler cleaned the sweat that was pilling on his forehead and wasn't caused by perspiration, ”Young Master, a rocket launcher.”
His aura turned murderous and lethal with intent. It was impossible to be on distance this close to his area without being detected in this area. Nobody except them had weapons in this part of the area.
He took a gulp and continued, ”It was from a high private property. We are still investigating but our CCTV's around the area didn't notice a thing. It was shot on the area with protected bots. No life is thr...”
”Where is Lei Xinyi?” He wasn't beating around the bush but hearing it leave his own lips hit him like a brick.
He wasn't running from it anymore. Her name though sounded unfamiliar on his lips but it didn't sound wrong. In a twisted way, it felt right.
”Yo...Young Master, she is probably abducted, we can't fin...”
He threw his head back and a sarcastic laugh left him, there was no humour in it. In the silent night who heard it, it's sinisterness seeped in their hearts like shock waves. Though suppressed everyone could feel his rage and it was rare.
Their Master was never really enraged. He had always been nonchalant or cool about everything even if it was a dire situation.
How expected! The woman sure lived up to her reputation.
”She fled!” He sneered. Took a deep breath and gritted his teeth to control his rage, ”Send the best troops! I want her here before the sun rises!”
It was at that time the guys cars' reached there because they weren't driving in insane speeds. They had heard his last sentence.
His staff dispersed in all direction and Li Yuan eyes sharply turned to the still on light of the room she was in with him. Then the open corridor by the threshold where she kissed him and told him she missed him then even promised to wait for him.
He clenched his fist tight in rage. He really didn't know how to comprehend the situation. The sinister woman he had only heard of, was living under his roof, sleeping in his bed and arms from days.
Yu Jian and Ji Zhou got out of their cars while Yu Wang and Jiang Cheng sat looking defeated at the ruins left by her retreat. Like a storm, she was, she inflicted destruction and left.
They all looked at Li Yuan with passive looks but didn't say a word. It was better this way, for everybody.
Yu Wang and Jiang Cheng gave each other knowing looks. They knew Lei Xinyi just well as they knew Li Yuan.
He shouldn't chase her nor should she return to him.
They were toxic to each other! They procrastinate a stark contrast to each other but they were both destructive in their own volatile way.
Lei Xinyi would never return past her wish nor will Li Yuan rest without having her on her knees.
It was obvious... only one of them will live past this.
