Chapter 518: 518

Ring ring ring, ring ring ring…

Xia Lei picked up .

Long Bing held her breath when Xia Lei picked up .

Gu Kewen’s voice came from the phone . “Where are you now? I’m at the entrance to Taketa Hotel . Why don’t I see you?”

Xia Lei knew that Gu Kewen must have calculated the time and called to check when she estimated that he’d arrived . He was silent for a bit, then said, “My car ran into some problems on the way there . I can’t drive it . Give me a bit more time . Wait for me to fix the car before I get there . ”

“Which road are you on now?”

“Heh . Gu Kewen, you think I’ll tell you where I am now? I don’t trust you . ”

“You bastard . Aren’t you afraid that I’ll–”

“Gu Kewen, I’ll kill your brother and go back to China right now if you threaten me one more time . Do what you want . That evidence you have is no guarantee that you’ll send my wife to prison . Besides, I have my connections . I can get a pardon for her, or a lighter sentence . Your brother, however, has just one life . Once it’s gone, it’s gone . ”

“How much time do you need?” Gu Kewen’s tone had softened . She had been demanding before, and uncaring of her brother’s condition .

Xia Lei thought for a bit . “I’ll definitely be able to make it before sunrise tomorrow . ” He hung up .

“Phew–” Long Bing let out the breath she’d been holding, then took a deep breath . Her face had turned red from the exertion of holding her breath .

“Why did you hold your breath?”

“You can hear that woman breathing, so maybe that woman can hear me breathing too . She won’t hear me if I hold my breath . This can help mislead her, and Gu Kewen,” said Long Bing . Her breathing was back to normal after a few deep breaths, but a blush still lingered on her cheeks .

Xia Lei gave a laugh . “She can’t be that good . But the other thing you said is true . Gu Kewen doesn’t care if her brother lives or dies . ”



“So her target really is you . ”

Xia Lei recalled the two gunmen at the village entrance . They were obviously not from the CIA, but he still couldn’t guess where they were from . That woman with Gu Kewen, too . He didn’t know who she was .

Gu Kewen was the enemy, that was for sure . Xia Lei was not afraid of dealing with her at all, but that woman and those two mysterious gunmen made him uneasy . They pressured him .

“It’s not too late for us to leave now . ” Long Bing drew close to Xia Lei, just milimetres away from him . Her eyes were smouldering . “What you said to Gu Kewen made sense too . She does have evidence which will make things difficult for Shentu Tianyin, but you have your connections too . That Mr Ling treats you well, and he’s a bigwig too . And you’ve contributed so much to the nation . The XL2500, and Gust . You’ve pretty much single-handedly increased the military power of our Chinese troops, and gained glory for China on an international scale . The higher-ups wouldn’t sentence Shentu Tianyin to death by shooting . She’s your wife after all . ”


Xia Lei smiled wryly . “I know that . I also know that leaving now is the smartest thing to do, but… using my contributions in exchange for Shentu Tianyin… This may work, but only once . I don’t want all the merits I’ve painstakingly accumulated to be used up like this . ”

He didn’t want to use his credits in this way even though it could guarantee Shentu Tianyin’s safety, because he could only use this once . And if he had to use all his merit in one go, he would rather use it for his father, Xia Changhe .

Xia Changhe’s status was fairly unique . He would get in huge trouble, and his father too, if Xia Changhe’s identity were to be revealed . That would be the time for Xia Lei to use his accumulated merits . It would be a waste to use it now .



XIa Lei could not tell Long Bing this, however .

Their close relationship was one thing, but he could only hide it when it came to Xia Changhe . He had no other choice .

Knock knock knocking came from the door .

“Sir, I’ve brought the food you ordered . May I come in?” The lady-boss’s voice came from behind the door, polite .

Long Bing looked down . Another obstacle .

Xia Lei gave a helpless laugh . He put Long Bing down, and went to open the door .

The lady-boss pushed a food trolley into the room and arranged the dishes on the table . She bowed respectfully, and back out of the room .

A feast was spread out before them on the table, but the man and woman in the room did not even glance at it . What they wanted to eat was each other . The instant the lady-boss exited the room, they pounced at each other, and their bodies intertwined .



There was no knocking this time, nor any damned phone ringing .

Meanwhile, the car at the entrance to the village started moving, going in the direction of Tokyo .

The white man driving spoke in Italian . “Boss, we’re moving off . I cannot confirm that I’ll find that guy on the road . He might be lying . ”

A woman’s voice came from over the line . “Drive towards Tokyo for 50 kilometres . Report to me immediately if you spot the target . Return immediately if you don’t find him . ”

“Yes, Boss . ” The white man driving stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped towards Tokyo .

There were no less than 20 armed men in Oshino Hakkai, searching . They entered hotels with Xia Lei’s picture and asked the hotel staff if they had seen this man . Some of the armed men even burst into the rooms of tourists to see if their faces matched the picture .

These gunmen all spoke in Japanese, and were members of the Yakuza . The owners of the hotels did not dare say a word against them, much less call the police . The hotel staff and tourists also chose to cooperate with these fierce members of the Yakuza for fear of getting hurt . However, not one of the cooperating people had seen the young man in the picture .

That young man was very busy, and had no time to think of other things .
