146 Igniting Anger

Then, an invisible door opened in the air. Inside, there was a room full of lavish decorations. It was all grand, but the entire place excluded an evil air surrounding it. She proceeded to walk inside and shut the door tight. This place was invisible to the world but only a few knew about it. Some kind of magic barrier was surrounding the entire room.

Her high heels in the big hall as walked inside. She then halted in the middle of the room and waited for the owner of this place to come out.

Soon a door from the second floor opened. A black gigantic bird flew out from the door and hovered around the room. His cold blood-red eyes kept his eye on the lady in the middle of the hall. Next came a tall figure in dark purple gown draping over his bare upper body. A white mask covered half of his face, but it could not hide his handsome features.

"Hmm, what has bought the young miss here?" His lips were smiling devilishly.

"What did you do to Jun Kai?" Her haughty voice questioned fearlessly.

"Oh? What makes you say that my dear?"

"He's hurt. The only person who would hurt him is none other than you. So, tell me what did you do to him?" She was burning with anger when she thought of Jun Kai getting hurt.

The other figure chuckled, "Just some fire and explosions, nothing harmful." He spoke ...

"You!" Her chest was breathing heavily with anger, "What happened to our deal!? You get the girl and I get Jun Kai, do you not remember?"

"Tut tut, don't get all worked up. That boy is fine, he had a helper on that day. Do you not want to know who helped him?" The guy dressed in his purple gown smiled slyly.

The lady frowned, "Who?"

"Mi...Rong" He spoke slowly to provoke her.

"What!?" Her eyes became furious with burning anger.

"But don't worry. The boy doesn't remember anything. However, there is quite some weight Mi Rong has in his heart." The next moment, the figure that was upstairs appeared in front of the lady like a shadow. He leaned closer and whispered in her ears, "I'm afraid…"

The lady did not wait for him to finish his sentence and she walked out of the room in a hurry. No, she would not let that girl get in her way. She must find to get rid of her right away.

From behind, a cunning smile was left on his face. Now, he does not need to worry if that boy would grow to close to Mi Rong. Now, he would have her accompany the boy at all times. He always felt troubled thinking that she was always closeby to that boy. However, the figure might have taken her willpower too lightly and what she would do.

...

3 days gone by for the people in the hospital and the people outside.

Xue Li had been coming and going from the hospital. However, she had yet to visit grandma Feng since she had arrived. All this time she had kept close to Jun Kai in his room as he recuperated. He did not seem to mind her company, but how much more did she know beneath his cold nature.

Sometimes Xue Li would get to meet Qing Qing who would come and stay beside Jun Kai. She had come to learn of Mi Rong taking care of grandma Feng across the hall from the little girl's story. However, since coming she had seen no signs of Mi Rong while visiting Jun Kai.

Just like any other day, little Qing Qing knocked on the door to come in and when her father gave her the sign to come in, the little girl would hop inside to brighten up the air.

Jun Kai would always greet her with a smile. And just like any other times, his eyes would linger longer at the door even after his daughter had come in the room. Xue Li was able to see unusual emotions in Jun Kai; as if he was waiting, but what could he wait for? Was it…? Her heart dropped.

In the end, would she have to bring another one down again to get all his attention to her? She looked at Jun Kai's face that had shown some disappointment when no one else entered the room. Her decision became resolute. Very well, she would have to take her down just like how she did to the other person. Xue Li kept her face down and took an apple to peel to cover her burning feelings.

Was Mi Rong taking care of grandma Feng alone? Hence, if anything happened to grandma Feng would all fall on her alone. How much more disappointment would Jun Kai feel if he found out that it was her who had not taken care of his grandmother well?

As she thought of how to tackle and get Mi Rong out off her way, she had already finished peeling the apple in her hand. Xue Li heard as little Qing Qing talked about Mi Rong and grandma Feng. Xue Li smiled as it made a way for her to bring up the subject of grandma Feng.

"Jun Kai and Qing Qing, have some of the apples that I cut." Her sweet voice reckoned them.

"Thank you." Jun Kai merely took the plate and placed it on the table without touching it, neither did Qing Qing. Nevertheless, Xue Li did not mind it.

"Jun Kai, talking about grandmother. I haven't seen her at all. It would be such a shame to not be able to meet her." She sounded grieve.

Sigh. He knew he could not hold it longer. Jun Kai weighed the outcome and did not decline her request this time, "Fine. Let's all go together then." He said.

Xue Li stopped Jun Kai before he got up, "Aiyoo, you should rest more. I'll be quick to give my greetings and come back. I promise." Her eyes were sincere.

Although there was more doubt, he did not want to blow his act, "Hm. I'll see you soon then." Jun Kai did not forget to emphasize that she was to return soon.

"I'll be right back then." Her slim and delicate figure dressed in a white floral dress walked outside the room. Lin Cheng bowed slightly to Xue Li and as he stood up, his eyes met with his boss.

Jun Kai gave a warning signal to Lin Cheng indicating to keep an eye on Xue Li.

It did not take long before Xue Li arrived in front of a room at the end of the corridor. She was aware of Lin Cheng following behind her, but she did not take it to her mind. Her focus was rather on the person inside this room beyond the doors.

Xue Li opened the door and proudly walked inside. With the pampering her family had raised her up with, she showed how confident she had in herself from her prestigious family background. She did not forget to shut the door behind her with a thud.

Mi Rong slowly looked up from her reports to the newcomer. Just like a nonchalant owl, her eyes were calm as she saw the newcomer.

Both of their eyes met. There seemed to be some kind of invisible tension in the room as Xue Li walked inside as graceful as possible.

Mi Rong scoffed inside her heart and looked away. Showing off for what? Showing her bird flapping skills?
