Chapter 290 Rescue (1/2)

Kyle brought Xing Han up-to-date with the situation of the kid.

Xing Han also appeared amused over the fact that Kyle shared the same name as the kid.

”So what are you going to do about it now?” Xing Han asked.

”If I do anything, I'm the one breaking the law,” Kyle said.

”So what are you going to do about it now?” Xing Han repeated, smiling at him.

Kyle smiled back, ”Oh, you know me so well.”

”Was there ever a doubt?” Xing Han asked.

”So you're really okay with this?” Kyle asked for the umpteenth time.

”For the millionth time, yes,” Xing Han replied exasperatingly, ”If you ask me one more time, I'm going to bite you.”

Kyle grinned, ”Kin-ky...”

Xing Han pounced on Kyle, who was laughing and nimbly dodged him. This time, Xing Han was expecting that so he turned to the right, intending to grab onto Kyle. Kyle grabbed onto Xing Han's hand instead and pulled him close, their noses touching as Kyle wriggled his eyebrows.

”Not quick enough,” he said with a smile before letting Xing han go.

”GAH!” shouted Xing Han in frustration. He kicked towards Kyle, who was looking elsewhere, but still couldn't land a hit. Kyle simply twisted his body a bit and the foot went to the side. Kyle smacked the foot down and turned around, putting a finger on his lips.

”Remember the plan now,” Kyle said.

Xing Han became serious then, and stood up straight, taking a deep breath and said softly, ”Showtime.”

Just then, the 'targets' came into view as they entered the space that connected the two carriages. The door opened and as they passed through, they saw that the boy was walking in front of the two adults, his head held low while Cornelius held tightly onto the boy's shoulder.

Xing Han and Kyle made as if they were on their way to the other side, so they stepped aside to let them through. The couple didn't even spare a glance at them, nor acknowledge their gesture with a thanks as they passed by.

Which was fine for Kyle. The less interested they were to their surroundings, the less likely they will remember how they looked like. Made things easier for them.
