Chapter 913: 913
The weather had been clear the day before, yet today, it snowed at dawn . Snow fluttered in the air, turning the rooftop white with snow .
Standing before his office window, Xia Lei looked out at Peace Mansion to see the special force team guarding Peace Mansion and Thunder Horse Military Factory . At the area where the four knights were building a church, several guards were setting up camp on an empty piece of land . It was obvious that they were not going to leave anytime soon .
Liang Siyao came to hug him from behind, admiring the snowstorm outside .
“All the filth will be covered with snow,” she said .
Xia Lei said, “But the snow will melt eventually . The hidden filth will soon reveal itself . ”
“I wish it would be like that forever . The world looks so clean, with everything in white,” she said .
Xia Lei smiled . “Wouldn't that become the Ice Age? We’d run out of food, people would starve . ”
She nudged her chin at him . “I hate you, can you not be so realistic? Can’t you be romantic?”
Xia Lei said, “Siyao…”
“Director Xia,” Qing Caiyue entered through the door . “The lawyer is here . ” When she saw both of them in an embrace, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes .
Liang Siyao’s return had ruined her rags-to-riches story .
“Alright,” said Xia Lei .
Liang Siyao let go of his back and faced him . “You called the lawyer over? You’re really going to…”
Xia Lei nodded . “Let me speak with the lawyer alone . I’ll call for you later . I have an important task that I need your help with . ”
Liang Siyao nodded . She did not even ask what it was . She was willing to do whatever he needed .
The lawyer entered while Liang Siyao and Qing Caiyue left Xia Lei’s office .
“Director Liang, why did Mister Xia invite the lawyer over?” probed Qing Caiyue .
Liang Siyao furrowed her brows . “Don’t ask any questions that don’t concern you . Run along now . ”
“Alright, I’ll continue with my work . ” Qing Caiyue turned, though she pouted when her back was towards Liang Siyao . “What is she so smug for? You were only the CEO of Thunder Horse after sleeping with Director Xia . ”
Liang Siyao did not hear her . She fished out her phone and dialled Fan Fan’s number . The call went through .
“Why did you take so long to turn your phone on?” asked Liang Siyao .
“Sigh, I was just in an investigation,” said Fan Fan .
“Any trouble?”
“A small one but it’s not too serious . Yawn…” Fan Fan yawned . “I’m so sleepy, I want to go to bed . ”
“Xia Lei invited the lawyer over, the lawyer’s in his office now,” said Liang Siyao .
“What for?”
“He’s writing his will . You should've come over,” said Liang Siyao .
“He’s serious? I… I’m coming now!” Fan Fan hung up, all fatigue vanished .
After a quiet moment, Liang Siyao dialled Jiang Ruyi’s number .
“Siyao, I’m in a meeting,” said Jiang Ruyi’s voice was very soft . “What’s the matter?”
“Xia Lei…” Liang Siyao spoke but then stopped .
“What happened to him?” Jiang Ruyi suddenly panicked . “Wait a moment, I’ll talk to you outside . ” After a minute, her voice came on once again . “Alright, I’ve left the meeting room . Siyao, tell me, what happened to Xia Lei? ”
The foreign media had a field day reporting about what happened at Boao forum but local news did not mention it . It was not odd that Jiang Ruyi did not know what happened .
“No, it’s…” Liang Siyao hesitated but finally told her . “Xia Lei is writing his will . ”
“Huh?” Jiang Ruyi’s voice went up an octave . “What’s wrong with him? Why is he writing a will for no reason? He’s so young . Our kids aren’t born yet . Why would he need a will for?”
Liang Siyao sighed . “I don’t know but the lawyer is in his office . I’ve talked to him about it but you know his temper . He won’t change once his mind is set . You’re part of the family, I think you should know too . If you have time, you should come . ”
“Alright, I’ll apply for leave immediately and take a flight over . ” Jiang Ruyi hung up .
Liang Siyao dialled Long Bing’s number .
“Siyao, it’s early . What’s up?” said Long Bing .
“Xia Lei’s writing his will . You should come,” said Liang Siyao directly .
“Huh?” Long Bing was shocked . “Is he mad?”
Liang Siyao smiled . “I’ve already informed Fan Fan and Jiang Ruyi . If you come, then the entire family would be here together . Writing a will is a major matter . Us ladies should sit together and talk about it . ”
“This is so chaotic…” Long Bing chuckled bitterly . “Alright, I’ll head over immediately . If he doesn’t explain himself, we’ll smack him . ”
“Yea, we will . ” Liang Siyao smiled, though her smile was filled with bitterness .
All four ladies had been informed . Long Bing was the first to arrive at Thunder Horse Military Factory . As she parked, Fan Fan had arrived in her car too . Jiang Ruyi couldn’t arrive that soon but she would arrive before nightfall . For the first time, all of Xia Lei’s women would gather here . It was their first ladies’ meeting too . However, Xia Lei, who was still in his office, did not know of this .
Within the parking lot, Long Bing got off her Knight XV and waited for Fan Fan . Although they knew each other, they weren’t very close . She was different from Liang Siyao, who had taken the role of the ‘rope’ tying all of them together .
“Ah Bing, your car is so badass,” said Fan Fan with a smile, walking over .
Long Bing smiled . She rarely smiled, so this was already a gesture of friendliness .
Both ladies shook hands and hugged . When they pulled apart, they looked at each other and smiled once again . It was awkward but nothing they couldn’t get past .
“I really don’t know why he’s gone mad . Why is he writing his will for no reason?” Fan Fan held Long Bing’s hand as they walked to the office tower . She talked as they walked, “Later, we must unite and oppress him . ”
Long Bing nodded, though she was thinking about something else . “Would this be related to 佛森’s matter? Do you have any news?”
Fan Fan said, “I have no choice now . I had just undergone investigations when Liang Siyao called . I’ll let you and Liang Siyao know if I have any news .
The three ladies met at the door of Xia Lei’s office . Their eyes met each other’s . Although they were familiar with each other, this was their first formal meeting .
Long Bing looked at Liang Siyao’s belly, then Fan Fan’s belly . She was a woman and wanted her own child too .
Liang Siyao smiled . “Ah Bing, why are you looking at our bellies?”
Long Bing grinned awkwardly . “Just looking to see if they’ve gotten bigger . ”
Fan Fan said, “Not so soon . I think it’ll take a few months . ”
Liang Siyao held Long Bing’s hand . “When are you having your own?”
Long Bing blushed . “I . . . I don’t want to be a mother so soon . ”
“Don’t lie to us, I see the look you have when you see our bellies,” said Liang Siyao . “Get Xia Lei to work for it . You can hurry for him to give you a child . Then me, Sister Fan Fan, Ruyi and you will have one child each . The four children would be able to play together, it’ll be fun . ”
Four ladies, four young mothers, four crying babies with only one husband . How chaotic would it be? Long Bing could not imagine . But she was not repulsed . Instead, she was leaning towards this .
Fan Fan held her hand . “Ah Bing, you can do it tonight . You and Xia Lei . Remember to get him to use the antidote . It’ll make you pregnant . ”
“You all…” Long Bing had turned very red .
At this point, the situation was very messy in Xia Lei’s home .
All three women chatted and soon, the office door opened . The lawyer with his briefcase walked out, nodded at the three women, then left .
Xia Lei appeared at the door, stunned . “Fan Fan, Ah Bing, when did you both get here?”
Fan Fan and Long Bing did not speak . All three women squeezed through the door .
Liang Siyao closed the door .
All three of them looked at him with a hostile look in their eyes and solemn expressions .
Xia Lei smiled bitterly . “What are you all doing? Are you here to fight with me?”
“Why are you writing a will?” Liang Siyao attacked first .
“Yeah, why?” asked Fan Fan . “We thought you were joking . I can’t believe you actually did it . ”
“Anything you’re hiding from us?” Long Bing’s approach was different from them both .
Xia Lei shrugged . “I knew you might have come for this . Siyao, were you the one who called Fan Fan and Ah Bing?”
Liang Siyao said, “I called them . Not just them, I invited Ruyi over too . She’ll arrive tonight . What do you think?”
Xia Lei smiled, “I think I want to spank you . ”
Liang Siyao rolled her eyes but she believed that if Fan Fan and Long Bing weren’t here, he would probably have spanked her .
Xia Lei walked to the office table and distributed the will to three of them . “These are photocopies, the lawyer has taken the original . What do you all think?”
The three ladies looked at each other . Suddenly, six fists flew at him .
