224 The Man of Her Dreams and Nightmares (1/2)

Li Yuan stood up despite the sharp pain in his head, ”Prepare the troops, we will retrieve her now.”

Ji Zhou and Fan Bingbing resembled the shocked expression but none the less nodded and left the room.

In was the time of the dawn, an odd time to go to someone door's but what their Boss's says goes.

In about thirty minutes his men had surrounded the area of the building where the secretary lived and Li Yaun got out of the car, Ji Zhou at once ran to catch up to him.

Reportedly no one was home as the secretary was out with her Boss so there was no better time to unravel the mystery behind the phantom of the house.

Li Yuan was heading to the building complex when Ji Zhou came forward, he was armed, like everyone, on his toes.

”Sir, are you sure, you want to do this yourself? Sir, we can rather wait for Team X to vacate the place for a trap first.” Ji Zhou voice reverted his anxiousness.

Li Yuan shook his head, ”No. If Lei Xinyi is there she will be scared. She had been suffering already, I can't see her dominated yet again.”

Ji Zhou winced looking at his Boss walking away. He wanted to tear his hairs out. 'She was the f*cking intimidation and the scariest thing here!'

He motioned his Team X and Z to cover their Boss and make sure no mischap took place while 'retrieving' the witch!

The building was worn down and in a need of renovation or better yet reconstructions, it was a little earthquake away from being a pile of debris. It was six-storey high and the apartment of the secretary was on the fourth floor.

There was no elevator, Li Yuan climbed the stairs, with every step weighing heavier than the other. It was like he was walking every step closer to the apartment and away from her.

His breath was ragged and his heart was beating irregularly. There was a chance Lei Xinyi was confiding in these rocks or it could be another dead-end.

He climbed to the said floor and rung the bell, there wasn't a single sound that left the apartment. He knocked again and then again.

Every ring that wasn't reciprocated with an answer sunk his heart deeper. He raised his hand to to ring once again when everything crumbled around him with what he saw ahead of him.

Half an hour earlier, in the living room, Lei Xinyi was watching yet another romantic movie and making comical faces.
