Chapter 848: 848
Most ladies would ignore guys who yell like that . However, the lady in a long white dress got up and walked over .
She had a beautiful figure, so gorgeous that she would be crowned the queen of beauties and no one would argue . From her face to her body, even the most critical people would not be able to find one flaw .
When she was seated, she was pretty . But when she got up and walked, even Yu Shanhe and Ling Han were stunned . She had a special aura to her, like a fairy from the legends . She felt sacred and powerful . At first glance, you’d think she was very confident . At second glance you’d realise it was a force more than confidence, it was as if she ruled the world!
However, this aura disappeared suddenly as she walked .
She tripped and fell unto Xia Lei, one of her heels fell on the floor .
“Stupid! Stupid shoe!” The lady bared her shiny teeth and glared at the high heel shoe on the floor . “I’ll chop you to pieces when I get home!”
Ling Han and Yu Shanhe couldn’t help but take a look at each other .
Who was this lady?
How could such a pretty lady sound so crazy?
“Mmm . ” Xia Lei cleared his throat . “Miss, you alright?”
“I’m fine . ” The lady bent over to pick her shoe up then sat on the chair and put it on .
Ling Han watched her intently, cautious against her every move .
When she was done putting on her shoe, she looked up at him . “What are you looking at? I'll scratch your eyes out!”
Ling Han suddenly said, “You both know each other?”
“Yes, she’s my friend,” said Xia Lei .
Yu Shanhe suddenly slammed the table . “Xia Lei! What are you trying to do by inviting her here?”
“She’s just here for a drink with us?” Xia Lei said with a smile . “Do you really have to be so nervous?”
Yu Shanhe said coldly, “I don’t want to waste time with you . Little Ling, call them . ”
Ling Han picked up his phone to dial the investigation team .
Xia Lei turned to the lady . “Get him to make a call to instruct the investigators to leave the place and destroy all evidence at hand . ”
The lady blinked, staring with her large eyes . She pointed a finger at Ling Han seated opposite her . “Uncle Xia, him?”
“Yes, him,” said Xia Lei .
The lady turned to Ling Han, her glare suddenly turned peculiar and deep . In a moment, she turned into another person . If she was an angel a few moments ago, she was a demon now!”
Ling Han froze .
Yu Shanhe laughed instead . “Xia Lei, are you joking?”
However, Ling Han suddenly dialled a number and spoke into the phone, “Retreat . Destroy all evidence . ”
Yu Shanhe’s smile froze .
Ling Han put down his phone and sat unmovingly . His gaze was empty like he had lost his soul .
Yu Shanhe suddenly sensed danger and prepared to leave . However, he realised he could not control his legs . Standing up from a chair was something a toddler could do, yet he couldn’t!
“You… You…” Yu Shanhe paused . “What did you do to me?”
Xia Lei said calmly, “Just let him sit there like an honest man . I have to talk to him . He may speak but not loudly . ”
“Alright, he’ll be good,” said the lady .
There was only one lady who could do such a thing . Zhu Xuanyue . It was too bad Yu Shanhe and Ling Han were both not aware of her existence . If they did, they would never have agreed to dinner!
A surge of panic flooded his systems, Yu Shanhe lost control of his emotions as he roared, “Help!”
He had used all his energy to yell but to no avail . His voice sounded like it was coming from the speaker of a phone!
Sweat sprouted from his forehead but he could not move to wipe it .
Xia Lei said monotonously, “Yu Shanhe, you are powerful but that doesn’t make me afraid . The Americans and Japanese couldn’t kill me, what made you think you could? On the contrary, it will be easy for me to kill you . ”
“You… You better watch out! I . . . I am not someone you can touch . ” Yu Shanhe’s voice was faint but he tried hard so Xia Lei could hear him .
“Killing you would bring many consequences, so I will not kill you . However, you don’t know that your bosses have already been conducting investigations on you, right?”
“You… What are you saying? Bring me to the hospital and we can forget our past . I guarantee not to cause you any trouble . ” He was terrified .
“Why should I agree?” asked Xia Lei coldly . “You must still remember the information you had Song Baicheng leak to the Japanese, right? Four of my good friends died during the operation at Dawang . They were my family . You killed four of my family members, you think I can forget it?”
“You… what nonsense are you spouting!” Yu Shanhe raged .
“You didn’t just kill my people, you even killed Song Baicheng and his family . Also, you made so many plans to stop the development of the Thunder Horse Organisation . You would not hesitate to betray the country for your own benefits . You’re a greedy man . How will you face Death when you get to hell?”
“Let me go!” Yu Shanhe roared but it was so faint only Xia Lei could hear him .
Xia Lei leaned forward to his face and lowered his voice . “I’ll let you go but you’re at a dead end . ”
Fear, shock, hatred, regret . All the emotions surged upon his being but he could not do a thing . At this moment, the lady next to Xia Lei lifted a glass of wine . She did not drink, just held it in her hand . At his surprise, the wine froze until rose-coloured ice was left in the glass!
“Uncle Xia, he’s looking at me . ” Zhu Xuanyue put down the glass and pointed at Yu Shanhe like a tattletale kid who was bullied .
“What do you want to do about it?” Xia Lei asked with a smile .
“I want him to become a dog, like Secretary Qing . ”
Xia Lei recalled how Qing Caiyue ‘became a dog’, arching her ass in the air as she carried a piece of sausage in her mouth . However, he absolutely did not want to see Yu Shanhe and Ling Han do that . Just the thought was enough to make him nauseous .
“What about we play a game for them to tell the truth . ”
“Tell the truth?” Zhu Xuanyue looked at him blankly .
“Yeah, a game to tell the truth . ” Xia Lei took out his phone . “Get him to confess to everything bad he has ever done . More importantly, talk about anything related to bribery and corruption . And how he leaked information to the Japanese through Ling Han and Song Baicheng, and how he killed Song Baicheng’s family . ”
“How is that fun? I already know what is in his head . I can tell you that, I don’t need him to tell you . ”
Xia Lei was shocked . “How do you know?”
If Zhu Xuanyue hadn’t told him, he wouldn’t have known!
He thought his extraordinary vision in his left eye was already a very special thing, but it paled in comparison to Zhu Xuanyue’s superpower!
She knew everything in Yu Shanhe’s head without moving a muscle! Could anyone keep a secret from her?
This was terrifying!
After a pause, he probed . “Can you tell me what’s in my head?”
Zhu Xuanyue thought for a moment . “Hmm, something shiny . It’s black, like a room without light . ”
Xia Lei was shocked .
It was exactly what he was thinking?!
A bold hypothesis came to him . “Unless . . . would the final evolution be something like her? Or like that guy in black? I might be like them!”
Xia Lei suddenly forgot why he was here . He had many guesses and hypotheses, all a mess in his head . However, he had no answers .
“Uncle Xia, it’s very boring I can’t see anything in your head . When will you let me?” said Zhu Xuanyue, interrupting his train of thought .
He snapped back to reality and frowned . “You’re not allowed to . ”
“But I can’t see anything . ”
“You can’t see anything and you’re not allowed to!”
“Fine, you don’t have to get so angry,” she pouted like she was wronged .
Xia Lei finally understood why she was only afraid of him . It was because he was the only person she couldn’t control! If he was like a regular person, he would be like her dog by now!
“You… You…” Yu Shanhe’s voice shook more violently . “Who… Who the hell are you both?”
Xia Lei leaned forward to his face and said in a low voice, “We were the people tasked with sending you to hell . Perhaps in your next life when you have repaid all your debts, I will tell you why . ” Then, he opened the camera on his phone . “Xuanyue, let’s begin . ”
Zhu Xuanyue’s gaze fell on him and she gave a mild look .
Yu Shanhe’s eyes suddenly became empty . He stared at Xia Lei’s phone and started to speak slowly .
He began to recall every shady and illegal deal or act he had committed .
Ling Han sat next to him, unmoving like a piece of wood .
Zhu Xuanyue continued playing with the frozen glass of red wine as if it was very interesting .
This was a peculiar scene yet no one looked over . No one asked questions either . That was because, in this restaurant, Xia Lei was the only normal person there!
