CH 10

Italy’s a beautiful country full of romantic landscapes.

As classic as Italian love stories was the infamous Italian Mafia.

The plane landed in Florence, a prosperous city with colourful blooms.

Outside the plane, Zhen Zhen saw five cars. In front of the cars was a beautiful blonde woman who had blue eyes, red lips and surplus cleavage under a tight dress. Zhen Zhen knew her breasts were a bit fuller after she gave birth to Zhen Wu. But compared to the blonde woman, Zhen Zhen’s breasts were like eggs while the blonde woman’s breasts were like boulders.

‘Yue,’ the blonde woman said in a seductive tone.

Goosebumps popped up on Zhen Zhen’s ears at the sound of the blond woman’s flirty voice. Zhen Zhen glanced at Yue Gu Zai, she was impressed he wasn’t affected by the blonde woman’s seductiveness.

The blonde woman swayed her hips, stepped toward Yue Gu Zai until her breasts were levelled with his upper arms.

Zhen Zhen immediately stepped back from Yue Gu Zai and the blonde woman. Zhen Zhen telepathically apologized to Zhen Wu, ‘Zhen Wu, it’s not that I didn’t try to get your dad to love me, but I’m not on par with the blond woman.’

Yue Gu Zai was unhappy to see Zhen Zhen was standing far away from him.

‘Zhen Zhen, come here,’ Yue Gu Zai said.

Zhen Zhen didn’t know why Yue Gu Zai was calling her to stand next to him. Didn’t he see the blonde beauty was glaring at her as if she was weak prey easily killed? Zhen Zhen couldn’t retreat, the couple in front of her was fierce. The man was a deadly lion and the woman was a carnivorous tiger. Asking Zhen Zhen to approach the fierce couple was like asking her to stick her head in a net trap. She knew if she didn’t stand next to the deadly lion then she’d be dead meat so she reluctantly stood next to Yue Gu Zai.

‘Yue, who is she?’ the blonde woman asked.

‘None of your business,’ Yue Gu Zai said coldly.

‘Yue!’ the blonde woman sulked.

‘Miss Da Tu Li, what are you doing here?’ Bai Yu Tian asked. ‘If I’m not mistaken this is an exclusive private airport.’

Bai Yu Tian held Da Tu Li’s hands, he kissed her lips and let go of her hands.

‘Yu Tian if I didn’t have Yue then I would love you,’ Da Tu Li said.

‘Miss Da Tu Li, thank you for the praise,’ Bai Yu Tian said.

Bai Yu Tian decided he was going to change security management at boss’ private airport in Florence.

‘Who can stop me from going to any place I want to?’ Da Tu Li asked.

Da Tu Li linked arms with Yue Gu Zai.

‘Let go of my arm,’ Yue Gu Zai ordered.

‘Yue you’re still cold as usual,’ Da Tu Li said. ‘Do you really want me to let go of your arm? I heard your uncle Louis is poisoned. Only Shu Tang Jue has the antidote. Shu Tang Jue is gentler toward women but I love you more. Think about us carefully and I can help your uncle Louis.’

Da Tu Li blew into Yue Gu Zai’s ear. ‘Your uncle Louis’ weakened body can’t wait too long for you to think.’

‘Boss,’ Huyen Di called.

Huyen Di was burning to use the gun in his hand to shoot. But Yue Gu Zai signalled not to shoot and Da Tu Li left the airport alive.

‘What an atrocious woman,’ Cheng Yi said. ‘It’s the first time I’ve seen someone dared to threaten boss.’

Cheng Yi noticed Bai Yu Tian was using a handkerchief to vigorously wipe lips that kissed Da Tu Li.

Zhen Zhen thought Bai Yu Tian was fickle. If he didn’t want to kiss Da Tu Li then he shouldn’t have kissed Da Tu Li. He was wiping his lips like bacteria contaminated his lips.

Bai Yu Tian felt his lips weren’t disinfected enough.

‘Cheng Yi, do you have a bottle of water?’ Bai Yu Tian asked.

Cheng Yi passed Bai Yu Tian a bottle of water.

‘Pitiful man, don’t kiss if you don’t want to kiss,’ Cheng Yi said.

‘I like kissing,’ Bai Yu Tian teased.

Cheng Yi was speechless.

Yue Gu Zai was still unhappy about Zhen Zhen not standing within arm distance from him earlier. He dragged her to the car and they sat next to each other in the back seat but he felt their bodies weren’t close enough.

‘Drive straight to the main house,’ Yue Gu Zai instructed the driver.

Zhen Zhen couldn’t admire the beautiful sceneries outside the window. A cold air-conditioner sat next to her and his cold aura prevented her from being immersed in the sceneries.

A while later the car parked in front of the main house. Zhen Zhen didn’t think it looked like a house, it was a messy bird nest. She walked inside the house. Inside was bigger than it looked on the outside, but it was still a messy bird nest. She thought rich people were eccentric if they liked to live in messy bird nests.

Zhen Zhen met Louis. He was laying on a bed, he looked weak and his breaths were unsteady.

‘Uncle Louis is older than forty years,’ Cheng Yi said softly to Zhen Zhen.

Zhen Zhen was shocked. Louis like teacher looked like young men. She thought gang members must have a bizarre way of staying youthful.

Bai Yu Tian carefully examined Louis’ body.

‘How’s his condition?’ Yue Gu Zai asked.

‘Da Tu Li wasn’t lying,’ Bai Yu Tian said. ‘The knife wound on uncle Louis’ arm is minor. But the knife was poisoned and he needs the antidote soon.’

‘Don’t you have another solution?’ Yue Gu Zai asked.

‘There is an alternative way to save uncle Louis but his body doesn’t have enough time to wait,’ Bai Yu Tian said.

Bai Yu Tian passed Yue Gu Zai a syringe and Yue Gu Zai strode out of Louis’ room.

‘Where is he going?’ Zhen Zhen asked.

Zhen Zhen’s heart felt strange. It was the first time Yue Gu Zai went somewhere without taking her with him.

‘Boss is going to Da Tu Li’s place,’ Cheng Yi said. ‘Yu Tian, what did you give boss?’

‘He gave something for boss to blackmail Da Tu Li,’ Huyen Di said.

Huyen Di sat on a chair with his eyes closed.

‘What?’ Cheng Yi asked. ‘When did Yu Tian poison Da Tu Li?’

‘Of course he poisoned Da Tu Li,’ Huyen Di said. ‘She needs to suffer for daring to threaten boss.’

‘Huyen Di, did you see Yu Tian poison Da Tu Li?’ Cheng Yi asked.

‘Only a dummy didn’t see,’ Huyen Di said.

Cheng Yi’s heart was insulted Huyen Di and Bai Yu Tian were mocking him and neither of them explained what happened at the airport.

Zhen Zhen couldn’t believe she was a dummy. She didn’t see how Bai Yu Tian poisoned Da Tu Li but everyone else witnessed it. She realised if she wanted to stay alive then she should distance herself from Bai Yu Tian.
