In the car, Lee Zhing looked at the outside of the window. Her heart feels hurt and her mind could not stop rewinding Jack's image and the girl beside him at the restaurant.
She closed her eyes, try to not thinking about him again. Not long after, Zhen Yu, her blind date asks her.
"Are you okay Lady Lee? You look a bit distracted since we exit the restaurant. Is there anything that I might be missing out on?"
Shake her head, she said with a soft voice.
"No. I just feel a bit tired today."
"If that the case, you should take a good rest. Good night, Lady Lee." He stops his car at the entrance of the Lee mansion.
Nod her head, she thanks him for the dinner today.
After taking a bath and change into her sleepwear, she falls to a deep slumber.
Dreaming that Jack coming to meet her secretly in her room and kiss her lips before he went away.
It was a good dream since she has been missing that man badly.
...
When Lee Zhing is in the restroom, she bumps with the girl that was with Jack earlier. She intends to ask her about their relationship, she then approaches the girl."Ah hi..excuse me, but may I know-" Nani already turned her face around to look at the woman behind her."Yes?" she asked the girl in front of her before Lee Zhing could finish her sentence."Is the man with you right now is your boyfriend?"Nani furrows her eyebrow a little. Looking at the woman up and down she thought.'She can't be Jack's girlfriend right? Her dress is expensive and she also does not look like an ordinary citizen too. No way Jack gonna make her his girlfriend base on his stoic attitude. She is too... 'girly'. Ahh..maybe she had taken an interest toward Jack?'With that thought, she nodded her head. "Yeah." Lee Zhing's heart sank but she still wants to ask her again."How..how long did you..""Oh..you mean together with him? Hmm..3 years
Jack keep silent."Don't joke around Jack, it is impossible for you to hook up with Lady Lee. She is not in your league." his dad warned him."Did I look like I'm joking right now Mr. Chen?" Jack asked with a serious tone. He's totally serious with what he just said just now."No, you can't marry her. If you insist on marrying her, you need to follow the rules. Get discharge from the military. Hand over your tag and stars you earn.""Dad..""Otherwise, don't carry my name. I can't let you disgracing our family's reputation. All of our generations are working as a military. None of them dare enough to marry such a high-status woman. And you know why?"Jack divert his eyes to somewhere else.He knows. He knows the reason.High-status people are very particular about their daughter's life. Marrying a soldier is a mustn't. Especially for someone with his rank, who put his life in the first line in order to save someone from the nob
It's been a week since she arrives in Istanbul. She planned on going back to Imperial City after she's done with the conference meeting on the last day, but suddenly she got a call from Zhen Yu telling her that he is in the same city as her.He is in the airline business, thus he usually travels a lot to other countries. They decide to meet at Cappadocia on the weekend.Return to Lee's manor, she took a shower, dinner, and sleep. Just after she closed her eyes for a few minutes, suddenly her phone rang. The caller is from an unknown number.She ignores it until the third time it rang, she answered."Hello?""Zhing..it's me." a man voice that answered the call made her surprised."Jack?""Where are you now, Zhing? I need to see you." his voice was calm."Where am I is not your concern Jack, there is nothing that we can talk about. So, there is no need to meet me again." she brushes her hair to the side and sits up
When Jack and Lee Zhing return to Imperial City, they decide to announce their engagement and held a wedding in the next year.Mu Ning can't interfere with her daughter's decision again since Lee Zhuan already make her clear that whoever his daughter chooses to be with, he will accept it. Lee Zhen also didn't say anything regarding this matter.Even though Mu Ning really wants Zhen Yu to be her daughter's husband, but she didn't dare to voice it out. At last, she just follows what others decided. Xin Me and Lee Han also agree with Jack being one of the Lees....Within a blink of eyes, it's almost Christmas now.In the dining room, Hai Rin requests to Lee Zhen that she and Richard want to celebrate Christmas in Calestical City.Fortunately, Lee Zhen did not too strict with her. He let her celebrate with her adoptive family. They take an early flight on 23rd December and will be back after 25th December.....They
A month later."Honey, are you sure you wanna go with me?" Richard ask her while putting his document into his briefcase.Somehow, he had a bad feeling when Hai Rin said she wants to follow him to go to New York. He needs to attend a business matter for two weeks. Since she insists wants to go with him, he could only agree to it."Yes. I am very sure that I want to go with you. Lately, I can't even stay away from you. Weird, isn't it?" she giggles."Okay, okay. But stay close with me, don't go around by yourself okay?" he reminds her and hugs her from behind."Ok."...They bid farewell to the family and landed at the New York 14 hours later. Now it's still winter season in New York.She's totally tired and could only sleep for the whole day when they arrived at the Lee penthouse.Without any butler to arrange her schedule, she does everything freely without any specific time or schedule to follow.R
"Andy!" Richard grabs the man's arm.Turning his body, he looked at him, he frowned his brow.Not instantly replied to him, instead, he looked behind him. Searching for someone's figure."She's not with me. I left her at the bench just now." Richard said again.He looked at the man who is wearing a black coat and bring a backpack with him."What do you want Richard?" he asked with a plain voice."Why you run away from her? She has been looking for you for months. Meet her, will you?" Richard releases his grip. His gaze also turned soft.How could he be angry with him? He was like a brother to him. Even though they love the same person, he never is able to hate or mad at him."I can't. Not yet. Just tell her that I'm fine and no need to worry about me." he slightly smiles at Richard.Richard tilts his head a little."Are you sure you don't want to meet her? She really misses you, you know.""Nah. I'll pass.
30 minutes earlier,Hai Rin sat on the bench looking at the young people who enjoy playing the snow, suddenly there's a girl walk toward her and standing in front of her.She doesn't know who's the girl standing in front of her, but her voice sounded familiar to her."Hi miss, I had a message from a man named Andy for you." The girl said and smile at her.Lift up her eyebrow, she asked the girl."Andy? Where is he?""There. He said he will meet you there." The girl shows a place that is a little bit hidden by people using her finger.She smiles to the girl and stood up from the bench, "Show me the way then."The girl nodded.She walks behind the girl and took out her phone, try to inform Richard.But his phone is engaged now. She sigh.When she looked up again, she was forced to sniff a cloth that contains a weird smell....She opens her eyes slowly. She has been tied up in her
Richard looks at Andy's face with a serious expression"Explain what you need to explain now." His voice sounded colder than the iceberg."If I start now, it'll take next year to finish. What can I say is, your wife cannot be seen by Rong Yuan." Andy walks to the side of the road after a few ambulance and police cars come to the location. His unit also already at the scene.All the road has been closed due to the accident that they caused. A helicopter also landed near on the cleared road.Andy shows a signal to Richard to get on the helicopter first. Richard follow behind him and instructed the pilot to go to Washington DC, immediately....They returned to the Lee base in the US.After he walks inside his secret underground office, he made a call to Ramon again. This time his call can get through Ramon's."I need you to track that bitch again.""Can't do that, man. She left the tracker on the highway. Which means all t
***Special Story.***A tall man standing straight in front of the tomb with the name written on it, 'Zhi Ling'.He put a bouquet of flower at the tomb's altar. He kneels and said with sorrowful tone in his voice."Do you remember the first time we met, Ling? I was so dirty and skinny back then. And you were so&hel
3 years later.Lee Zhen's eyes turned wider after seeing his pond full of crumbs bread floating on the surface of the water. He turned his head to his butler."Who...Who did this?"Clearing his throat, he narrowed his eyes toward a small figure on the right side of the pond.Lee Zhen also looks at the direction where Mr Chu looked.He gasps."Athena.. what are you doing here, sweety?" he walks to the girl. His gaze turns soft. All his angry vanish instantly."Fish…eating." Her small and cute voice made his old heart joyed."But, sweetheart, this koi here do not eat bread. They eat their special food that Dada had prepared." Le Zhen caresses her long hair."No…! Fish... eat this." She shakes her head and pouted.Sighing. Lee Zhen just nods and said "Okay..""Where are your daddy and mommy?" he asks and stretches his neck trying to figure out where is Richard and Hai Rin go."Daddy and mo

He can break the record for not having the slightest rest in these past 3 days ever since his wife has been kidnap.All of the bodies and ship wreckage has been clear up by the army that the government sent to the location.

Cyrus immediately takes his knives and hold it with his two hands."Stay still now!" he instructed Zhi Ann to stay on the bed.Not knowing what has happened before, she did not move an inch. Cyrus cut her skin, making Zhi Ann whimpering in pain.She clenches her hand with on her bedsheets tightly. "Erghhh..""Hold on.." he used another knife on his left hand and cut the small tube-like-a-wire connecting to one of her small nerves."Ergggghhhhh..""Just one more step. Hold on, Zhi Ann." He put the knife down and use tweezers to pull it out slowly.Once he pulls the chip out from her flesh, a lot of blood gushing out from her neck, making her turn pale and unable to bear the pain again.'Shit!' Cyrus cursed inwardly. He took a towel and press it hard on her neck.Push the Bluetooth button, he said."Medic team! Room number 1 in East Deck second floor. Now!!!!" Turn off his com. He calls Zhi An
Zhi Ann finally steps out from her hiding spot. She looks at Rong Yuan with a disdain look on her eyes."What do you want with me, Yuan? Can't you just let me die happily?" she said coldly. Her knife, she hides it behind her back."Come on, honey. We've been married for 27 fucking years. Don't be so mean to me." Rong Yuan smile when he sees Zhi Ann walk to him obediently."Hah? Mean to you? You're the one who treats me badly Yuan. Why don't you go to hell?" she smirking. She sits at the edge of the bed and crossing her legs.Cyrus, on the other hand, start killing one by one of his bodyguard behind their bedroom room without making any sound.Not replying to her, he walks to her and grabs her neck forcefully. Making her look up at him."Where the hell is that traitor? You work with him, do you?" his eyes turned cold as he's squishing his hand to her neck, making Zhi Ann hard to breathe."As long as it will destroy you, I
"Ready to launch a missile. Air force 1, requesting permission to drop the missile."Jack look at under him from the jet glass window, three warships which is the size of three soccer field in the sea start firing at them."Request granted," Jack replied using his aviation headset.One missile drops to one of the ships in the right, making a huge explosion on the deck."For the main ship, keep the airstrip remain.

"Master Rong, Yus troops have invaded our two ships!" a man standing in front Rong Yuan reporting to him. He looks nervous when he went inside the room. Who wouldn't?"Take that hostage and cut her handoff. Send it to her father after that." he puffs his smoke out from his mouth."But, Master, Rong Yue was with Su Zhin at the cage room right now.""So, they play with my pawn, huh?""Y-yes, master.""Hmm...Let them be. Must be that bitch who's alarming the Yus. Tell our force to kill all of their troopers. They want a war? Fine, we give them a war. Prepare for bloody the battle." he stood up and walk out from his room followed by a group of elite bodyguard clearing his way....Cyrus looks at the room which he believe is Zhi Ann's room. The door was unlocked and when he stepped inside, Zhi Ann already sits a big single sofa, waiting for him. She smiles at him."Brother Grim.. it been so long ya. How a
After Hai Rin has her dinner with Zhi Ann, she continues to lay on her bed. She keeps on vomiting. Everything that she eats, will throw out back. She had no energy left to even get up again.This is the first time she feels this way. Maybe it's because she would change to the second trimester of her pregnancy soon.She just barely close her eyes try to get some rest. Although, she could not even rest since the day she has been abducted.She heard someone open the door, she thought it was her Aunt Zhi Ann. She closed her eyes and suddenly she feels her hair was pulled by someone.Open her eyes she saw Su Zhin in front of her."Bitch! Still have the nerve to sleep huh?" she slap Hai Rin's face making her cheek throbbing."I heard you were sick. Did you miss your husband so badly?! He won't save you! He never cares about you!" she laughs evilly.Hai Rin is still silent. She tries to find her energy to stay awake. Its hurt,
