Chapter 179 - Pick up a fight (2/2)
Ming stepped back and relax his body. ”But I am not here to pick up a fight with you today. I am simply here to support my mother. Hope Mr. Li won't take this... personal.”
Ming left and Kris turned back to where his mom and Lena was sitting. Kris sat silently down next to his mom and soon, the light went dark and the fashion show started.
Lena was mainly here just because she had a free VIP ticket and because Eva was here today. She was not much interested in the dresses. They were obviously a bit too high on her price scale anyways.
”Lena...” Madam Li spoke softly to her. ”If you see something you like, just tell me, I'll buy it for you.”
”It is alright Madam Li, thank you though.”
”Don't be. Take the gift. I have not offered you anything for helping Kris. If you don't know what to pick, I'll choose for you.”
”Then... If Madam Li says so, I will not reject the gift.”
Lena and Madam Li continued to have a small chat, talking about the beauty of fashion. They also talked about how beautiful Madam Zhao always made some traditional Chinese clothing. When the fashion show ended, Madam Zhao came out and give a speech, thanking everyone who attended the event.
As usual, there is a small after-party as people who chose to buy some items get their information and purchased completed.
When Madam Li was chatting with a few older woman, Kris tapped on Lena's shoulder.
”I have to go first. Plan still the same.” He whispered to her ears then turned around and left.
Lena came with Madam Li but their plans required Lena to leave differently. Lena had to make an excuse. She glanced at the clock and realized that it was time for her to leave. She walked up to Madam Li.
”Madam Li.”
”Lena.”
Lena went to close to Madam Li's ear and softly spoke so only she could hear. ”I have my.. lady thing... so I am leaving first. I already called a taxi for me.”
Madam Li also whispered back to Lena. ”I see.” As a woman, Madam Li understood Lena's urgency.
”Do.. you still want me over for dinner?”
”Dinner?” Madam Li did not know what Lena was talking about then she remembered that during her fight with Madam Zhao, she did say that Lena would be eating dinner at her house today. ”Ah yes. Make sure you come.”
”I will.” After making her excuse, Lena walked out of the event area.
Lena made sure no one was following her. She exited out the side entrance, where James and Noah were already there waiting for her. She opened the back door and hopped in.
”Everything good?”
”Yes. She's in the trunk.” Noah replied.
”Good. And Andy?”
”He confirmed to be at the location already.”
”Good. Kris and Gary should be there too. Let's go.”
Noah stepped on the gas and the car drove out. He did not try to drive too fast just to make sure they would not get pulled over by a cop. It took them 30 minutes before they reached the location. It was a large abandoned real estate on the bad side of town.
Lena put on a long black coat and stepped out of the car when they arrived. She walked to the back and opened the trunk. Eva was knocked out and tied.
Lena bent down and removed Eva's hair from her face so she could clearly see it. ”How does it feel to be on the other side of things? As I remember, you were the one who put my first kidnapping hit on me.”
Eva was still unconscious but Lena did not feel any pity for Eva. She once did, but the girl had done so many stupid and horrible things that she does not deserve any pity.
Standing in the dark night, even if Lena dressed like a princess today, one would not know about the bad things she was going to do.
”Carry her out. The real show has just started.”
