Chapter 15 - Contract with a King (2/2)

”Now tell me, what is the answer?”

”Simple!”

Lena leaned over to Ming Zhao's ear and whispered something to him.

”That's it?”

”Mhm.”

Ming Zhao felt like he got the bottom of the bargain.

”I am pretty sure you have someone you trust. Have them confirm my answer. It will blow your mind what little unnoticeable things can do.”

”I'll be sure to have them confirm it by tomorrow. If this is all a lie, I will---”

”It's not a lie. I didn't waste my efforts to tackle the great Ming Zhao just to have my head cut off.”

”Better be.”

”Ah… and when you do get your confirmation, here is my number.”

Lena passed a pink business card with her number on it. It was even scented.

”I will be waiting for your call, Ming-ge.”

Ming Zhao eyes looked at her. The sound of her calling him that was delicate to the ears.

”I didn't eat lunch so I have to run before I faint in this office. We wouldn't want the next top news to be that Miss. Lena Shen fainted inside Ming Zhao's office.”

With that, Lena left the office.

”Heh… what an interesting woman.”

Ming Zhao called in Secretary Tim.

”Contact Arnold to meet me here in an hour. I have an assignment for him.”

”Yes sir. Does this have something to do with what Miss. Shen said?”

”If what she said is correct, seems like I can get rid of my brother earlier than we planned.”
