Tranxending Vision - Chapter 787

Chapter 787: 787

That very afternoon, videos of Mu Jian-Feng raising his hand to slap Ye Kun’s wife accompanied by evidence of his deeds were all over a handful of online media outlets and social media platforms . It didn’t take long for the incident to become the hottest topic in town .

The heated debate over the incident was unstoppable .

No one dared to cover it up due to the widespread publicity of it!

That very night, Xia Lei received a call from Fan Fan .

“Wow, I’m impressed . You should consider switching over to the movie industry . ” Fan Fan’s words had hints of ridicule but also an unconcealable delight . “Your plan had resurfaced that particular whistleblowing document . I heard that the higher-ups had formed an investigation team for this . Mu Jian-Feng has been stripped of his freedom . ”

“That soon?” Xia Lei smiled . “I thought it would take a while for things to explode . I’m surprised that it only took half a day to gain full control of him . ”

“You’re upset that it happened too fast?”

“Of course not . To me, another pesky bug has been taken care of . It’s a good thing . ”

“Actually, the fast development of things was all thanks to your new material project . I submitted the report the other day and the higher-ups are very pleased with it . It was very stupid of them to try to mess with you now . ” Fan Fan’s voice was still laced with glee .

“You contributed to this too . Oh, my phone is running out of battery, I’ll talk to you soon,” said Xia Lei .

The call was going on for too long .

“Why are you in such a rush? Are you on a date with some other beauty?”

“Is that jealousy I hear?” Xia Lei lowered his voice .

“I’ve swallowed your salty stuff, what’s new about feeling sour over you?”

“ . . . ”

“You’re with Long Bing, right?”

“No, I’m with no one . Oh crap, there’s no battery left…” With that, Xia Lei hung up . He then looked to the side of the table to watch Long Bing open a bottle of red wine . There was a slight pause before he sheepishly muttered, “She can be quite annoying at times . ”

“It’s great that she helped us . I find her pretty feminine,” commented Long Bing .

“Uh, let’s not talk about her anymore . Come, let’s dig in . ” Xia Lei made his way over .

Long Bing poured Xia Lei a glass of wine before doing the same for herself . After Xia Lei was seated on the opposite side of the table, Long Bing brought her glass over to sit beside him .

Xia Lei raised his glass and smiled . “Cheers, it’s been a while since I’ve eaten at your place . ” He had promised to stay a night at Long Bing’s place every weekend back then but he hadn’t stuck to his promise well . Whenever he was reminded of it, he couldn’t help but feel guilty .

But Long Bing paid no mind to the broken promise . She held her glass over to touch the rim of Xia Lei’s glass before downing the lukewarm fluid . Her alcohol tolerance was as good as her shooting skills .

“Here, let me refill that for you . ” Xia Lei grabbed the wine bottle and filled her glass .

Long Bing stared at Xia Lei for a bit . Abruptly, she voiced, “Am I not feminine?”

Xia Lei was a little surprised . He came nearer to her pale neck to take in a light whiff . “Why would you say that? You smell nice, I love your scent . ”

Long Bing rolled her eyes at him . “Stop teasing me . I meant feminine, not my scent . ”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Xia Lei was perplexed .

“I mean…” Long Bing paused for a bit to structure her thoughts . “Well, something you’d get from Fan Fan . She radiates lady-like charm and intelligence . Or probably something like Shentu Tianyin’s aura . She has this very luxurious and bright femininity . ”

Xia Lei laughed . “What’s with you today? All we had was just a glass and you’re already drunk? You are who you are . If you change yourself to be like one of them, you won’t be the same Long Bing I know . ”

“But I want to try it out . Change my appearance a little or something . ”

“This is not the same as changing an outfit, okay?”

“Well, I can always learn . ”

“There’s no need to torment yourself over thoughts like this . Let’s just continue drinking and then …” A filthy smirk appeared on Xia Lei’s face .

That smirk had triggered something within her . Immediately, Long Bing stood from her seat and walked over with a seductive twist of her waist to sit her full bottom on Xia Lei’s lap .

“You’re done with dinner already?” questioned Xia Lei .

“Don’t interrupt me . ” Long Bing put her arms around his neck . She stared longingly into his eyes . “Is this feminine enough?”

“Pfft-” Xia Lei couldn’t hold his laughter in .

Long Bing sent a glare his way . “Hey! I’m serious!”

Xia Lei fell silent .

Long Bing then ground her soft ass against his crotch . “How about this? Is this feminine enough?”

Xia Lei bit his lip to hold in a burst of untimely laughter .

“You’re so mean!” Long Bing slapped his arm .

But before she could do so, he grabbed her arm and had his wicked ways with her .

The next morning, Long Bing had already left when Xia Lei woke up from his slumber . She even made him breakfast, which happened to be a very sad looking cup of Kang Shifu instant noodles .

Xia Lei sighed . “Women should treat themselves kindly . How is she able to survive with such unhealthy meals?”

Still, he wolfed down the instant noodle she left for him . After that, Xia Lei slid out his phone to call Zhou Xiaohong .

“Brother Lei Zi!” Her greeting was followed by giggles . It was as if receiving a call from Xia Lei was the best thing that happened in her life .

The village lady was very grateful . If Xia Lei hadn’t taken her in and gave her a part-time job at the workshop, she would probably still be scrubbing dishes in some random restaurant . Everything she had was all thanks to him .

“Can you do me a favour? Please help me find a good maid from your hometown . She needs to cook well and be able to care for people . Yeah, you can take it as getting hired by our company . The maid can receive her salary from our office and she just needs to take care of one person . It’s a relatively simple task, it’d just be simple cleaning and cooking,” explained Xia Lei .

“Sure, that’s not a problem . We have a lot of maids back home that are especially skilled in cooking and caring . May I know who she’ll be caring for?”

“Long Bing, you’ve met her before . ”

“Oh, I got it . ”

“Also, let us know when you find someone . We’ll buy her insurance . Oh right, when she comes to Jingdu, she won’t be staying at Long Bing’s place . We’ll provide her with other accommodation,” elaborated Xia Lei .

“Alright! Brother Lei Zi, when are you coming to Shu Di again? I…”

“What’s the matter?”

“I haven’t seen in ages, I miss you a lot… Uh, I don't mean anything else, I just want to see you again . ” Zhou Xiaohong sounded a little nervous .

Xia Lei laughed a little . “I’m a little busy at the moment but I ‘ll come to visit Shu Di after this period is over . Please take good care of yourself, goodbye . ”

“Goodbye, Brother Lei Zi . ” Zhou Xiaohong’s tone was full of reluctance .

Ending his call with Zhou Xiaohong, Xia Lei then left a note for Long Bing . It wrote, ‘Please cut down on your instant noodle consumption . I hired a maid for you to help you with house chores and meals . I can’t always care for you all the time so please accept the maid I hired . ’

The passion Long Bing had for him was like fire while the tenderness he had for her was like water .

Although she was a tough woman who had survived battle after battle, she was and always will be someone he needed to protect .

Returning to the Thunder Horse Military Factory, Xia Lei had just finished his discussion with Annina and Sylvia about plans for Sweeper’s mass production . Just when he was about to start about his bold idea to start designing a tank for the Thunder Horse Organization, the four Knight Hospitaller ladies made their presence known .

Sylvia and Annina left . It was only then when Xia Lei finally questioned, “What are you here for?”

“You really think we want to be here?” huffed Theresa . “We’re just here to give you the newest updates . ”

Rosa closed the door to his office .

Xia Lei calmly asked, “Anything new so far?”

“Our people have already been mobilized in Siberia . They managed to wipe out FA Organization’s camp there,” said Giovanna .

Xia Lei smiled . “Ah, that’s great news . ”

Stella then placed a smartphone in front of Xia Lei . A picture of a pile of corpses was displayed on its screen . He started to swipe to see the next, each picture showing a few bodies in the same frame .

It didn’t take long for him to reach the last picture . His eyes were glued to it .

The last picture had also shown a corpse . Unlike the rest, he wasn’t blasted to death . He was decapitated instead! Someone had even used his bleeding head to write on the snowy ground in Chinese- “Xia Lei, if you want to kill me, come kill me yourself! Coward!”

Despite the message being anonymous, it wasn’t hard for him to guess who wrote it . It was Dark Mona .

“This body isn’t a member of the FA organization, he’s our man . Dark Mona killed him before she escaped into the woods . They’re still searching that area . We’ll inform you when more updates are received,” said Theresa all while glaring at Xia Lei . She was still bothered by Xia Lei’s complaint that she smelt like fish . Personally, she thought the smell resembled yeast .

“Thank you . ” Xia Lei returned the phone to Giovanna .

Stella then spoke up, “Mister Xia, Dark Mona is a highly trained killer . If we’re unable to kill or capture her, we hope that you’ll understand us . ”

Xia Lei frowned . “Are you telling me this personally or is this what Arthur wants you to say?”

“It’s…” As Stella had begun to speak, Rosa quickly touched her waist . Stella immediately fell silent .

Xia Lei smiled . “Ah, so it’s Arthur . Tell him that to kill or capture Dark Mona was an important part of our agreement . I’m sure you know what will happen if you fail to do so, right?”

“Please help us then . ” Giovanna continued, “Dark Mona is very strong . If she wants to escape, we’ll have a tough time capturing her . However, if you involve yourself in the process, she’ll make you her target and she’d come to us instead . It’ll be easier for us to do our job . ”

“Did Arthur tell you to say that too?”

Giovanna gave an affirmative nod . “Yes and this is the reality of it . We’re trying to fulfil your request, it’s only reasonable that you help us out . ”

Xia Lei gave it some thought before voicing out . “You may return . I’ll have to give this some thought . ”

“Let’s go . ” Theresa rolled her eyes at Xia Lei .

Giovanna took two steps forward before she turned her head and said, “Mister Xia, please be quick . If Dark Mona runs away now, it’ll be difficult to get our hands on her . ”

Xia Lei had only returned a nod .
