Gu Ni quickly got dressed. She was wearing a light blue gown. It was extremely beautiful. She let down her hair just like Yueying but her's wasn't curly. God blessed her her with amber eyes. Her eyes were very beautiful. Yueying had hazel eyes and it was very mesmerizing.
The two of them looked like goddesses.
Gu Ni grabbed a white bag to match her gown.
Yueying was looking so mesmerizing. She had always been a beauty.
The duo walked out of the the room to the hall were the party had started 30 minute Teng Yu noticed Lu Quing has been checking his wristwatch for the past 30 minutes.
When Lu Quing turned to staircase to check on Yueying , he's eyes fell on the most beautiful woman he has ever sighted. Yueying had a majestic walking step. She walks with grace and an air of confidence. Gu Ni was not bad either. Most of the men eyes were in them.
They were whispers everywhere in the hall
" Who is she? " a girl said
" That is the disowned daughter of the Gu family" someone replied Mei Chu.
" Not her, I mean the one on a black dress " Mei Chu said with an air of arrogance .
" I heard she works for Master Lu . They are a bit close according to the rumors spreading everywhere " the same person replied again.
" Close ? " She wispered to herself
Mei Chu saw as Yueying walked to Lu Quing
They were many noble guest. Yueying saw different stars she always admired.
Different men tired to approach her but because she was always at Lu Quing side they dare not. Her feet felt so heavy, she was so tired but she managed to pull through. Lu Quing sensed it
" Go take a rest" he told Yueying
He new about her Chinese name. It was in her resume
.
"Ying ying" he called out. Yueying heart beat so fast. It sounded so seductive. She didn't know why her heart kept pounding. She tried to stabilize herself but her facial expression would not let her. She was blushing already
" OMG! What is wrong with me. Ying control yourself. He just called your name but... he's eyes. Why is he looking at me that way ?" Yueying said
Or was she ..... drunk. She was a bit tipsy .
Lu Quing walked her to her room. He used a towel soaked in cold water to clean her face
" Clean my legs and hands also " a drunk Yueying said
He gave her a cold look
" Shut up " he said
Nevertheless, he began cleaning her hands . On reaching her legs he stopped. He was going call Gu Ni or Zack but the network was failing
" Damn " he cursed
He took the towel to clean her legs when their eyes met. There was something like an anticipation in those hazel eyes.
He cleaned her gently. Her thighs were smooth. He couldn't help touching her thighs .
No this wasn't right. He was going to lose it if he continues. He has always been calm to stuff like this. What the hell was happening to him . He let go of her thigh
" Continue" Yueying said in her half conscious state
He bent down. He pushed her messy hair aside and he began kissing her lips
It was the long kiss.
There was a knock on the door. He stood up to open the door. Gu Ni walked in. She gave Yueying hot soup to make her a bit sober.
**************
The next day , Gu Ni explained what happened that night. She had actually seen Lu Quing kissing Yueying. At. First, she couldn't believe her eyes.
" Ahh shut up Gu Ni" Yueying said ask she covered herself with the blanket.
She too couldn't believe it. But she remembered a bit of what happened.
Yueying took a day off that day. She wanted to surprise her boss with a delicious delicacy. On her way to the supermarket she bumped into someone. His long brown hair reached shoulder length. His eyes shines with youthfulness.
"Sorry" Yueying apologized for not seeing on time to avoid bumping into him
" You don't have to bother" he said
Then he walked out of there . Yueying immediately forgot about everything.
She continued shopping. Yueying bought a few foodstuffs. Well, it was her money and she was not financially bouyant. She just wanted to surprise Lu Quing with a Chinese delicacy.
***********
AT HOME
Lu Quing was on a phone call.
" Don't come here" he warned the person on the other line.
It was obvious he was upset about something.
Yueying was done cooking the food. She helped Gu Ni set the dining table.
They weren't family and everyone knows that as they were both strangers to that home it wouldn't be nice sharing the table with their boss. He was so cold. They could not guess what he was thinking. He doesn't give out much facial expressions.
They both went to their rooms to continue with whatever they were doing.
That night seemed to be a long night because Yueying felt so restless. She decided to come put for some fresh air. She opened her room back door and walked out. She stared into the stars. She didn't notice she had company.
" Having troubles sleeping?" Lu Quing asked her. Yueying nod her head in response to his question. He was smoking at the balcony.
Yueying was shocked, she never thought her boss smoke . Lu Quing puffed out the smoke from his cigarette. He later threw it away when he saw how uneasy she was.
" Let's play a game" Lu Quing suggested.
" Okay" it was a fine suggestion to Yueying
"So what game are we playing " Yueying asked
Lu Quing smirked and walked inside he's room
" Meet me in my room " she heard him saying
Few minutes later she was in his room.
Yueying choose the first game to play which was chess. They played for some time. Lu Quing notice that she wasn't easy to beat.
" Checkmate " Lu Quing said with a smirk.
" No way " Yueying said
" You cheated right?" She went further
Lu Quing chuckled.
" Now it's my turn to choose a game " He said.
" Let us play truth or dare".
"You have got to be kidding me " Yueying said.
" Let's start " Lu Quing said but it sounded more like an order.
He spinned a pencil and the end landed her.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" He wasn't the type of guy that plays these kind of games but curiosity to know her more was killing him.
Somehow what he said sounded childish in his ears. He was about to paraphrase his words when he heard her reply " No" . Did he hear correctly. But this girl was very gorgeous. She could match Gu Ni's beauty or even surpassed it. He looked at her with a scrutinising gaze. She was so malnourished.
Yueying repeated audibly again thinking that maybe her voice was a bit lower before.
They just sat there in silence. Suddenly, there was gun shots heard from outside.
Surprisedly, Lu Quing didn't seem shaken.
" Go to your room " he said to her
" What is happening" Yueying asked. She was really perplexed. " What the hell is happening" she kept asking. She was shaking uncontrollably, like a leaf rustled by the wind.
She tried to keep her calm but no matter the words she said to herself, she couldn't just stop shaking. Lu Quing stood there just looking at her.
" I'm leaving, stay inside" he told her.
" Huh " Yueying was confused. What was he supposed to do outside.
" Call the police" she said with trembling voice.
The sound of gunshots and voices became louder.
The next moment, Lu Quing jumped the window. He didn't want to do this in her front but he had no option, and besides he wanted to settle scores with this guy himself.
Yueying's mouth was left agape. She ran to the window to check if he has broken a rib or limb but to her surprise he landed perfectly.
Lu Quing brought out his gun.
Yueying ran out of the room to check on Gu Ni. Gu Ni was in the living room drinking tea. Lu Quing had instructed her to keep an eye on Yueying.
*********************************
Lu Quing walked down. " Boss" someone said. He was called Ta Ming.
He looked at the man that was once his father's butler. The man had taught him different fighting skills after his father died.
Lu Quing raised his gun and pointed at a range close to the man's head. Don't think much, he was not going to shoot the man. He shot one of the baddits that was in hiding.
The baddits were quivering in fear. Lu Quing's aura engulfed all of them. They wanted to retreat. There were pools of blood everywhere. They were mafias but they couldn't match up Lu Quing and his men.
Lu Quing dragged one of the baddits that was still alive. The man has be lying down helplessly on the ground.
" Take him to the basement" Lu Quing told one of his men
" Make sure you torture him until he speaks up" he continued
Yueying has been watching everything since it started. At first, Gu Ni didn't allow her but she had no option since Yueying persisted. To Yueying, Lu Quing action was excessively harsh and violet. Besides, she was taken aback by Gu Ni seemingly untroubled demeanor.Gu Ni appeared calm as though nothing has happened.
" I think is best if you go to your room" Gu Ni told her.
Yueying just simply walked to her room.
She couldn't sleep that night, she was having a hard time falling asleep, she kept rolling around in bed. She walked out of the room to check if Lu Quing was back. He room was unlock. She could hear the sound of rushing water. He was taking a bath. Suddenly the tap was turned off . She wanted to run out when she heard his voic " Do you need something from me " he said with a smirk.
'SCREEEEEEEEEAM' that was her screaming in her head. She turned around to look at him. His body looks like it was chiseled from heaven. His biceps are so defined and he has the perfect V-shape going on,his body so smooth. There was a large dragon tattoo at his back.To Yueying it looked like it was alive which scared her a lot. He looked like a Greek god. Her cheek turned red. Why was she reacting like this, she had better leave the room she said to herself .
But leaving like this would make her look like the stupid one . She has to give him an explanation so that she could leave her off the hook.
" Are you a mafia ?" Yueying didn't know when that word slipped out of her mouth. She just kept seeing the pools of blood. She couldn't stop that memory from occupying her mind.
Lu Qing didn't know what to tell her. He just held her hand and squeezed it softly. "It's a long story" he said. He didn't know why he wanted to comfort her . Was it because she reminded him of her ?
Yueying slowly leaned her head on his shoulders. Their mutual interaction seemed to cause a spark. The next moment, Lu Quing bent over and planted a passionate kiss on her lips.
