263 The Kidnapped Socialite (1/2)

He has guards patrolling around her informing him of her every activity. It wasn't like he didn't trust her. It was just Lei Xinyi who knew how to yell at trouble to 'come hither' and knowing her whereabouts calmed his raging desires to lock her up in his bedroom.

It was an obsession, an intense alleviation of madness. But he was possessive of her, of her skin, of her scent and of her songs, reserved only for him. She was a Siren but she was his siren. Only his.

He drummed his fingers on his desk, skimming his eyes through the piles of files he had gone through for the day. He was fast, his deals came easy unlike Yu Youhan he only worked in the perimeters of his own rules.

Yu Youhan was too high and mighty to cheat the lots whereas it didn't bother him. He was the Dark King for a reason. He opened his Macbook and went through the snaps the event manager had sent him for the night.

The photos were of the venue from different angles, on his private beach with a pergola covered in white silk light curtains, with solar tiki light illuminating the place. The whole sandy ground was covered in buried white roses with a blue in the middle, like small bushes with fairy lights in their stems.

The glass table was set under the pergola. The tiers of the pergola were draped with fairy lights. It was something out of a fairy tale but when he imagined her standing in the middle of all of it, he could see everything pale in comparison to her beauty.

He was taking her to their first official date as a couple. He smirked thinking about them being a couple.

He twirled the Yu's heirloom in his fingers as his lips tugged upward at the game plan that brewed in his head. The Lu's were dealt with. His Grandfather was a sketchy opponent but if he really did knock up Lei Xinyi he wouldn't be able to do a thing right now he could simply say the accident caused a miscarriage.

But she was too guarded. He needed to keep her safe till then and make sure the Old Man was kept reined. The Yu's though will be a threat but he now knew Yu Youhan's Achilles heels.

Lu Xinyi…

He had taken back the bounty he had raised on her head and others in the black market knew not to cross him and were forced to withdraw too. The Lei's heir were individuals and recently in hiding. Easy to deal with and eliminate.

Su Qianwei and Yu Wang were off the radar, after that vivid night when she came in with her confession which still stung to the point he wanted to smash something to crumbles. His fingers halted as rage consumed him.

Instinctively his hands twitched and he extended it to grab a cigarette from the stash when his hand halted halfway, instead he kept the heirloom in the drawer.

He extended his hand and held the stash in his hand. He took out a cigarette and contemplated it. He sighed then shook his head, emptied the stash in the bin. It was not worth it; it wasn't worth her frowning face, though she may never know.

He exhaled and shook his head. He needed to talk with Su Qianwei; she was his closest acquaintance for years and had been attached by the hip to him since she was young. She wasn't a whiny child, even at a young age she was always prim and proper. She would always excel and push harder in anything she did.

When every woman was trying to climb his bed she would be by him laughing at their expanses and helping him get rid of them… He would often scare away men who would be attracted to her or hit on her. She was…is his little sister

He wanted to protect her from the world. Every time she would cause a ruckus he would deal with her mess. He was spoiling her, flaunting her ego. Even thinking about hugging her like he held Lei Xinyi, felt like incest. He rubbed his temples; he needed to have a talk with Su Qianwei.

His next meeting was in fifteen minutes. His intel told him Jiang Cheng was sighted back in the city and it wasn't long before Lei Xinyi will contact him. Yi Yang was in his headquarters' dungeon. He Zheng was monitored.

The Lei's were good for now but they were unpredictable so he kept his defenses up.

He was bothered what Lei Xinyi wanted with Lu Xinyi. She was insignificant though, she was yesterday. But if his woman did want to extract her wrath on a woman for whatever reason, he would make sure she have the props.

His door was knocked and his Assistant walked in. Today the workload was more on him as his secretariat head, Fan Bingbing was on his Private beach looking at the minute details and making the changes he had suggested.

Assistant Ji walked to his desk placing the impending proposition that was filtered on the desk, ”Sir, Mr. Yin was requesting a meeting again. He was willing to fly back from Europe at any time that was suitable for scheduling.” He informed.

Li Yuan raised a brow then, scowled and picked up the first proposal which so happens to be of the Yin Corporation. He threw it back on the desk and faced his Assistant. It was something about the shipping industry.

”About?” His tone at this point was cold and menacing. He was tired of the man pestering him.
