'Who was he?' Luo Lixi thought as she looked back from the passenger seat. Earlier, she felt someone's intense gaze and looked back but didn't see anyone.
Pan Er Jiu, who was beside her, noticed her movement and turned back as well. Like Luo Lixi, she didn't notice any anomaly either.
"What wrong, Miss?" Pan Er Jiu asked as she looked at her as well.
But Luo Lixi shook her head and said, "Nothing."
Then, the car became silent and all of them went quiet. However, Luo Lixi was having a lot of thoughts with longing, 'There is no way I can mistake him. Is he here?'
…
In a secret basement.
A man was checking something with a magnifying glass. His hair was grey and messy as if he hadn't taken a shower for a long time. His white lab coat was also slightly yellowish.
In front of him, many things were laid on the table like that of a chemistry lab. Different types and colours of chemicals were in them.
While he was engrossed in his observation, suddenly the room's door was flung open from the outside. The man whose concentration broke abruptly was angered as he yelled out.
"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me for a week?!"
"But, but, professor, fire!" The young man who had just come said anxiously.
"What fire?" He inquired.
"Fire! There is fire all around our place!" After announcing that, the man entered and clutched his arm and dragged him outside.
"No! My Yue'er!" The old man was reluctant to go but he was dragged away.
The moment they came out, they saw fire everywhere. The place was engulfed in the fire and many men were trying to extinguish the fire. Right at that moment, something broke on top of the basement and the fire was ignited anew.
"Professor, we need to leave as soon as possible!" The men who were trying to extinguish the fire said in a panic.
"No! My researches! How can I leave them behind?! Also, Yue…" The old man shrieked aloud and wanted to go back in the room as if his whole life was trapped in that laboratory but he wasn't allowed as his assistant dragged him away.
After going through many secret tunnels, the duo finally came out from the underground.
"How can it catch fire when I made it underground?!" The man grabbed his head and with hollow eyes, he stared ahead.
Even after many hours, the fire didn't extinguish and the whole thing was destroyed. The concrete fell and the place caved in.
"Professor…" The assistant whispered and looked at the old man who was staring ahead blankly.
When they were standing there like puppets and watched things being burned, five black vans drove into that place and stopped right behind them. Many armed men came out from the cars and surrounded the two men.
"Wh… who are you pe… people?!" The assistant stuttered and looked around in fear. However, the armed men didn't speak out first.
The old man stared towards the one van whose door didn't open. A terrible kind of intuition was giving him danger alarms and telling him to run away.
Right, when he thought of escaping that van finally opened and two men finally came out.
As soon as the assistant saw them, he narrowed his eyes. Sheng Ruming's aura was colder than usual as he stared at the old man. People around them felt like he was looking at something filthy.
"How do you feel, Li Jibian? Watching your decade worth of research getting destroyed just like that? Did that nasty thing in solution die as well?" Sheng Ruming chuckled dangerously as he went into the center and faced him.
When Li Jibian realised the fire was caused by Sheng Ruming, Li Jibian went hysterical.
"How dare you?! You, why do you know about Yue'er?!" As the old man shouted, he tried to take out something from his white coat but several men grabbed his shoulder and forced him down on the ground.
Sheng Ruming caught him with an iron grip. But Li Jibian refused to let him see what he was holding. But in the end, how could the old man win against the younger one?
When Sheng Ruming saw what was in his hand, his eyes went colder. "Why are you planning to spread this virus in the air? Not again!"
"How, how do you know?" Li Jibian's eyes went round as he asked in a shaky voice. But in the next second, he screamed out desperately, "Noooo!"
Sheng Ruming threw the vial on the ground and crushed it with his boot. He enjoyed the horror in the old man's eyes and wanted to see him in absolute fear every day.
"Take him to the island and make sure he doesn't die of hunger! But don't make him comfortable either!" Sheng Ruming announced as he stepped behind and made a huge distance between him and Li Jibian.
Right then his eyes fell on the other people who were trying to escape.
With a signal of his eyes, some men moved fast and caught them too. Then all of them were stuffed inside the black van and taken away from the site.
"Huang, make sure to burn down everything to dust." Sheng Ruming mumbled as he gazed ahead.
The fire burning ahead reflected in his eyes yet he seemed to be watching something else in that area.
"Yes." Xiao Huang replied and sneaked a glance at him. After watching him silently, he went ahead with several men.
Such a huge place getting fire, couldn't be hidden from the authorities but when they came, Xiao Huang took care of everything.
While he was burning the remnants, his heart skipped a beat when he saw a body in the remnant. Glass shreds were all over on it as well as concrete. The sight was way too disgusting. The smell of burned meat was floating in the air and he felt he would not able to eat meat for a long time...
Sheng Ruming went up and stared at it coldly. It was a body he knew the identity of more than anyone else. The moment he laid eyes on her deep hatred and disgust appeared in his mind.
"Boss, what to do?" Xiao Huang turned to him and asked for instructions.
"Burn her too." Sheng Ruming replied expressionlessly.
"But shouldn't we notify…" Xiao Huang wanted to explain something but Sheng Ruming took the Matchbox from his hand and took out a bunch of matchsticks.
Then with dark eyes, he lit them and threw them at the half-burned woman's body. Both of them stepped back as they saw the body catching fire again and burning at a rapid speed.
Xiao Huang's mood was complicated as he asked him covering his mouth, "Boss, do you know her?"
"Someone related to that mad man. Let's make this place a road. People stomping here every day will be marvellous!" Sheng Ruming mumbled as he turned around and began to walk away hurriedly. His hands were clenched so tightly that blood nearly sipped out. 'This isn't enough for the pain you have caused...'
"..." Xiao Huang stood there blankly and stared ahead. For the first time in his life, he felt like he was doing the work of a criminal...
…
The next day, when Luo Lixi went to the company, she felt like people were giving weird looks. She touched her cheeks and rubbed them gently.
'I just applied a little blush to hide my pale skin. Is it too obvious?' She wondered and then turned to Pan Er Jiu.
The other person also looked back to her and asked in confusion, "Miss, can you see if there is anything on my face?! I'm feeling like people are giving me weird gazes."
"..." Luo Lixi didn't know what to say at that moment. She was anxious that something had happened about the company shares and thus hurriedly walked towards the lift.
As soon as she went up to her floor, both she and Pan Er Jiu were taken aback. The floor was decorated with beautiful red roses, red balloons and candles. Pan Er Jiu turned to Luo Lixi with visible confusion.
"Must be an executive's doing…" Luo Lixi whispered nonchalantly and then began to walk towards her office room. Pan Er Jiu nodded stiffly and then hurriedly followed her.
When Luo Lixi pushed the door open, she was startled. Pan Er Jiu, who saw the familiar back, was stunned at first. Then realisation struck her hard as she retreated slowly.
'Is it him or did grandfather bring another man for me?!' Luo Lixi stood rooted on the floor for a long time and stared at Sheng Ruming's back blankly. The man turned around and faced her directly.
"You …" Luo Lixi's throat went dry as she gulped hard. The man who was in front of her was the one whom she had cultivated to love her from a young age but at that moment she seemed to have seen something odd in him.
Contrary to her, the man didn't have enough patience to stand and stare. He walked in huge steps and swept her up from the floor with heated eyes.
"Ruming!" Luo Lixi was so surprised that she shrieked in surprise.. But the man closed the door, put her on top of the desk and gave her a fierce kiss.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
'Who was he?' Luo Lixi thought as she looked back from the passenger seat. Earlier, she felt someone's intense gaze and looked back but didn't see anyone.
Pan Er Jiu, who was beside her, noticed her movement and turned back as well. Like Luo Lixi, she didn't notice any anomaly either.
