24 Hold me close.....

They watched the next footage.

Xiao Ai could be clearly seen, her face was tired as she held Jenny tightly. Master Mighty held a long sword and flung it at her, but she quickly pushed a man forward saving her own life.

The others watched on in agreement, this explained why they found a man without a head.

The young Military man who had gotten the footage was the most shocked. This wasn't what he saw. He had seen Xiao Ai turn around as she flung an high kick to behead the burly man.

How did the footage all change within the span of thirty minutes?

"Chief, this isn't what I saw! This big man was clearly beating up the guards. Flinging them aside like rags. And her...her..she swung around and used an high kick to behead the man!" he explained trying to show them the high kick but ended up falling to the floor.

The others gave him a look of 'seriously'

A Sergeant of the military officers spoke." Are you drunk young boy!? Can't you say something realistic. The footage is already here what are you still blabbing about?"

Xiao Ai wore a wronged expression as she looked slightly scared. "Am just a lady. Say how can I use an high kick to behead someone. Isn't that completely absurd? Say it's true, then why is the footage showing nothing? We are all present here. No one could have altered it."

The others nodded there head as they agreed.

Sure enough she made sense for the first time.

"But...I saw the footage first, she...she.." he was frustrated no one believed him as he stared at Xiao Ai.

This woman definitely did it.

Before he could say anything, Sweet Guy spoke up, while Xiao Ai had her heart in her mouth as she knew Sweet Guy never said sense.

"Young man, are you saying that Boss walked in with me while I flung the guards away and that Boss suddenly got angry and so she used her signature high killer to behead the man. And that when I mistakenly called the police and military this Little guy here slipt away and asked one of our very capable hackers to erase the cctv and send over false footage.. Is that what you are saying?" he furiously asked towering over the young Military man.

Xiao Ai face palmed herself. ^-^

Where did this idiot come from?

Little guy:"...."

Small Mighty:"...." Does he really work for Beezlebub?

Is this idiot really one of the indomitables?

The rest:"..." Well....?

That's a new thing.

The Captain of the military suddenly stared at the three, his brows raised. "Well..we are not saying that but now that you are saying it...is that what truly happened?"

Sweet guy looked over to Xiao Ai and Little guy and saw that they were glaring at him.

"Of course...." Xiao Ai and Little guy bit their tongues as they stared anxiously at Sweet guy."...not" he finished cracking a weird smile.

The Captain and the Chief gave them a scrutinizing look.

Why did it feel like this big looking idiot was telling them exactly what had happened.

"So you are sweet guy, he's little guy and she's your boss?" The Captain of the military asked his suspicious gaze going from Sweet guy to Xiao Ai.

"Yes yes..you are right." Sweet Guy quickly answered.

Sweet guy, Little guy....

The indomitables.

"Then the footage is true." The Captain concluded.

The Chief stared at him surprised.

"Captain Li, what are you saying?"

"Chief Li, judging by their names alone, is enough to tell us that Doctor Mo here just found some street fools. Coupled with her reputation it's normal that people around her aren't normal." he careful explained giving Xiao Ai a knowing smile.

Xiao Ai glanced at him but quickly looked away, he knew who they were.

That smile said it all.

Xiao Ai and the rest found a guest house to say as it was already past midnight and their men didn't have any place in the city.

"Boss, what do you say we snatch this guest house?" Sweet Guy commented looking around greedily while holding a lollipop.

Xiao Ai ignored him and left for her room. She was staying with Jenny in the same room to keep her company.

Jenny woke up a while later only to see Xiao Ai changing into her night dress, her hair still wet.

She gulped down as she quickly turned her face away blushing.

"Sleep more. We will leave for Imperial City in the morning, you can stay with Lifen or grandpa. Sleep..go to sleep." she patted her but didn't notice that Jennys face was red.

Right now, her upper breast were a bit exposed as she bent to lie and her sweet fragrance of after shower filled her nose.

Sister is too dangerous.....

The following morning, Xiao Ai and her men went to the airport.

Little guy had to stay behind because there was something Xiao Ai asked him to do.

"Sweet Guy, once we leave, gather our men and ask them to hold the Black Tigers, I will deal with them myself." she commanded once they got to Imperial City.

Xiao Ai took Jenny to the hospital for a thorough check up.

Seeing Xiao Ai bring Jenny into the hospital, shut the rumors that were still going on about Xiao Ai selling Jenny off.

The news had already been leaked to the media that Master Mighty was the one that abducted Jenny and the cctv footage was shown to the mass so currently, on net everyone had a good impression about Xiao Ai. And they were all singing her praises.

Jenny decided to stay with Lifen before going back to the Martial academy, so she hung around the hospital till Lifen was done.

Xiao Ai unable to hold back her longing for her hubby, went straight home to make a surprise for him.

On her way, she stopped by a men's shop to get a gift for Gu Bojing and Gu Bolin.

"Miss Mo, is there anything you are looking for in particular?" a staff politely asked.

The other staffs were a bit wary of her, after all she had once gone to a shop and refused to pay making someone pay for her in the end.

The socialite men and Miss there kept their distance from her. Who knows whom she will pick as her next victim of swindling.

"Show me some of your most expensive male jewelry." she asked looking at few cuff links.

If she remembered well, Gu Bojing had a lot of cuff links.

The staff soon came back with a few items and displayed it fir Xiao Ai to see.

A shining tie holder caught her attention. It was diamond encrusted on the most finest gold surface she had seen. It had a little jade carving on the side. It looked low key but exquisite. Xiao smiled checking through the tie holder.

Her hubby will look quite good in this.

"Miss Mo, are you shopping for a lover?" The staff politely asked seeing her loving look.

Xiao Ai was stunned for a while. Gu Bojing was her husband but she couldn't say if they were lovers or not.

Did they love each other?

"She's even prettier up close." a good looking man complimented not able to take his eyes off Xiao Ai.

The lady that accompanied him was mad with anger as she glared at Xiao Ai.

"What's there to like about her? Cousin she's just a lady with the worst reputation. She swindles people here and there. Totally shameless." she spat still glaring at Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai turned in her direction giving her lifeless look. This lady was Miss Xi of the Xi group specialized in food manufacturing. When they were in high school, she used to be one of Baozhais minion.

The man beside her whom she had called cousin was a senior of hers in school, though he graduated befor Xiao Ai could get to know him, she still had slightly good impression of him. He was always on the front board with glasses boy for good looks.

Glasses boy. It's been long since Xiao Ai heard anything about him. She heard that he went abroad to study after graduation.

That Glasses boy was one of the most good looking boys back in high school but he was quite shy and introverted and his huge black glasses made him look like an innocent fool. Xiao Ai had teased him so much back then.

Not just teasing, she had given him quite an high school tough time as she used to be a bully.

Xi Yifen and Glasses boy used to be a bit close then. Should she ask him?

"Pack this one for me then."

"Sure. Pack this for miss Mo." The staff commanded one of the other staffs. "Miss Mo that tie holder is called 'hold me close'. There's a tie with it and also has a female hairpin. It's a couples thing." The staff explained smiling at Xioa Ai.

Couples thing? She and Gu Bojing didn't have anything like that.

"I will take the others then. Now show me the very least expensive stuff you have here."

Xiao Ai grinned evilly which scared the staff a bit.

She would get the least expensive thing for Bolin. He shouldn't blame her. She did her part though.

The staff confused brought her some bronze cuff links.

Xiao Ai picked the less stunning one and asked them to pack it.

"Miss Mo, the total is..."

"Sorry..come again..." Xiao Ai asked eyes widening.

Ten what..?

She had spent some money while she went to search for Jenny, and now all she had was no less than two million in her account.

Xiao Ai smiled awkwardly seeing the staff began to panic.

"Hey..don't fret I will pay your money ok. Just a minute I have to quickly get my card." Then she swiftly left the shop.

The young miss Xi scoffed.

She must not have money to pay. She was about to mock Xiao Ai when she remembered that Miss Si had been swindled while doing that.

Xiao Ai was still thinking of where to get money from when she saw Miss Si across the street shopping.

Phew..looks like this Miss Si was sent here by the heavens to help her.

She quickly dashed into the other shop and dragged Miss Si out.

Si Meng had been a bit stressed lately due to certain feelings so she had cone out to shop hoping to relieve her stress until Xiao Ai dragged her out.

Heart beating fast, she put some distance between she and Xiao Ai covering her chest with her hands in a scared manner. "Wh..what...do you want this time?"

"Ahahah..Miss Si glad.. I mean Meng Meng glad I saw you. I need some money will you lend it to me. You know we are good friends after all." she coaxed shifting closer to Si Meng and placing her arm around her neck.

Si Meng shocked was stiff as her face turned red.

She glanced at Xioa Ai and quickly glanced away.

Friends?

Even back in school, they were never close.

She was still trying to free herself of the emotional turmoil Xioa Ai had placed her in and then she shows up.

"What should I do for you?" she quickly spoke stepping away from Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai didn't notice her strange attitude as she was only focused on borrowing money form her.

"Borrow me your card, I will pay you everything I deduct from it."

"My card?"

"En..i swear am not trying to swindle you. I left mine at home so...will you." she asked giving Si Meng her puppy dog eyes.

Seeing Xiao Ais beautiful face up close again, Si Meng held her breath as she stared eyes wide.

So beautiful...so beautiful her heart was racing.

She quickly stuffed her black card into Xiao Ais hand and vanished to the shop.

"She's acting a bit strange but who cares..."

Xiao Ai swung the Black card at the staff.

They swiped it and asked Xiao Ai to input the pin.

Pin? Shit! She forgot to ask her.

She was about to dash out again when she got a message on her phone.

It was from an unsaved number.

"The pin is ****. Just send the card back to the Si residence."

Xiao Ai quickly input that pin and swiftly collected her items. Just as she had thought, Si Meng had left.

Was she avoiding her?

Did she look that scary?

On getting home, Xiao Ai got a call from Little Guy.

What little guy told her was shocking.

How could it be? Jenny too must not have known. That explains why she was so cruel to her and didn't care weather Jenny lived or not.
