Friends?

"Splitting bullet. Interesting." Liu Zilong was holding the report they received. He just finished reading it. He leisurely sat on the chair and his eyes didn't leave the piece of paper.

"It's definitely an attractive commodity." Liu Zijian said. He was standing near the window with both of his hands elegantly tucked inside his trouser's pocket.

Both young masters were in the study discussing the information about the gang fight. Their father already went upstairs to accompany Madam Liu. If their mother would sleep early he could join them, but if not then they would just inform him whatever conclusion they would eventually come up with.

"It's just not a good move to use the lives of people to introduce it to the market." Liu Zilong said and finally put the paper down on the table.

"I'm guessing they're short of funds for further developing the bullet. They probably need it urgently." It was clear that local gang could never afford those kind of special ammunition not unless it was provided for free. Those bullets were probably defective or unfinished products. Which ever organization the creator was, they achieved two things when they 'supplied' the gangs with their ammunition.

First, it became instantly 'popular' not just locally but also in international level as the fight occurred in a tourist spot with numerous number of international visitors.

Second, the bullets were tried and tested on human beings which was most likely the intended target.

"I also think it's not yet a finished product..." Before Liu Zilong could continue, the door of the study suddenly burst opened.

Both men were surprised when they heard the noise as they didn't expect someone could just barged in unannounced and in such a domineering manner.

They were even stunned when they saw who the person was.

Han Meixiu's was walking as if someone was chasing her. Her body moved on it's own. It was as if it exactly know what it wanted to do.

Her expression was extremely anxious. She only saw Liu Zijian who was near the window.

Han Mingxia's words were still playing endlessly on her mind as she almost leap towards her husband.

She opened her arms and tightly embraced him.

Liu Zijian wasn't able to react right away. His wife's movement was fast and caught him off guard. He felt her slender arms around him. Although they hugged and embraced several times, this one was different. It was as if she wanted to embed herself into him.

He was actually worried if Han Meixiu could breath properly since she also buried her face on his chest.

As he moved his arms to reciprocate her gesture, Liu Zilong quickly went out of the room and carefully close the door behind him.

"Show off! Damn!" He said as he move further away from the study.

He never thought his sister in law could become so aggressive and passionate? She actually disregarded him and suddenly showed a sweet moment. She didn't even think about his poor single heart that might die out of envy.

He released a long sigh. He then realized that she was supposed to be talking with her cousin. Maybe that woman said something that made Han Meixiu become agitated.

He walked towards the guest room where Han Mingxia could be. He saw the door was open. He quicken his steps as he thought she already left. He was surprised when he saw her lying on the floor.

'She didn't know how to use a bed?' He said to himself as he observed the woman while he leaned on the door frame.

Han Mingxia knew that she went overboard. She heard her cousin's footsteps when she left the room.

'Sorry, Meixiu. I just want you to realize something before it's too late. Living with so much regret sucks big time...Hold on to it, and never let go..' Right, she shouldn't have let him go when she had that chance. She didn't know it was the last chance she could ever have.

Everything was still so unreal for her. But day after day, the more she denied it, the more she's being hunted by the painful reality. The only thing she could do was find out who he really was and if possible, his family.

Right. She remembered her purpose today. She slowly sat up as she took the paper with the image and slowly folded it several times.

She then stood up and placed the paper on the tiny pocket behind her tight black pants.

Liu Zilong who was watching the woman ended up admiring her figure. Earlier it was dark and she was tied up so he wasn't able to clearly see her entirely. Now that she's in a well-lit room, her 'costume' basically enhanced her curves.

There's a playful smile on his lips before he spoke.

"Are you planning to escape, spy wanna be?"

When Han Mingxia heard the voice her face automatically became dark. She turned her head and saw the man lazily leaning on the door frame of the room.

She was taken aback. When she was caught it was a bit dark thus she didn't really see entirely his face. She got to admit, Liu Zilong being popular back in Q City was indeed reasonable. But the more she looked the more her annoyance multiplied. The way he treated her earlier was something she could not forgive easily, especially if she's supposed to be his benefactor.

"What do you want?" She asked after some time. Her eyes were like daggers ready to kill the man not too far from her.

"What did you say to sister in law?"

"None of your business."

"Not exactly. You see, their relationship is fragile. It wasn't built in a solid foundation like normal one. We're trying our best to make it work. Don't try to ruin it. Even if you're her cousin, I won't spare you."

"Heh. Threatening me? I only helped her to realize something. It was never my intention to ruin their relationship."

"Then it's good. If that's the case we can be friends?"

"Friends?" She turned around and now fully facing Liu Zilong releasing her rage.

Seeing the woman who wanted to eat him alive as revenge, Lu Zilong subconsciously stepped backward.
