Xiao Bai was more worried about her best friend's safety than hers. She remembered what happened some months after Lie Ruge's return from the Academy.How Lie Ruge's aunts and uncle collaborated with one of Lie Ruge's enemy to assassinate Lie Ruge in her own Mansion. They had sent large number of ruthless assassins to Lie Ruge's former Mansion. Thank goodness Lie Ruge could not fall asleep that particular night so she was working on some confidential doc.u.ments in her bedroom while she had switched off all the lights in the room so the assassins had presumed that she was sleeping, so they let their guard down for some moment . When Lie Ruge noticed weird movements around her bedroom she had sworn into action immediately. Lie Ruge sneaked in on all of them and murdered each and everyone of them with just one vital hit to their vital points. After killing about fifteen professional assassins she was exhausted since she had to crack her brain to come up with strategies in which she would not alert anyone of them. She was world number one assassin herself so she brought in her top assassin skills to display that day. It was after Lie Ruge had killed all the assassins did the security guards got winds of what had happened. Xiao Bai still remembered vividly the sight she met that day when she hurried to Lie Ruge's Mansion after receiving an urgent call from her. She had met Lie Ruge in the middle of the dead bodies she killed. After gathering all their corpses together, she was so exhausted that she didn't have any other choice but to sit down in their pool of blood. Lie Ruge had looked so scary that day, it was so difficult for Xiao Bai to recognized her best friend at that moment. She could still recalled the statement Lie Ruge made after she had stepped her feet into the sitting room. She said, "I did a great job right? I feel so bad for the teacher who wasted his precious time and efforts to train these fools. They couldn't even take down such a simple lady like me as they had always called me among themselves hahaha.....", Lie Ruge had said coldly with bloodshot eyes. Even her bodyguards trembled when they saw the sight before them. Xiao Bai later understood her best friend's action perfectly. If Lie Ruge had not killed them cold-bloodedly that day then she would have been the one who got killed at that time.
" OK, I will also listen to your sincere words. Some of my bodyguards will start guarding me starting from tomorrow. So, to make our discussion simple, the two of us have to be extra careful and at alert at all times OK?", Lie Ruge asked firmly.
"Sure but Ge'er, are you not going to tell Young Master Yi about this? I'm sure he will not like the fact that you are keeping secrets from him. I'm sure you know how he is more than I do", Xiao Bai suggested out of goodwill. She knew that Yi Lan will not hesitate to turn the whole world upsidedown to find the perpetrators if something bad was to happen to Lie Ruge.
" He has his own enemies to worry about so telling him about this issue will add more trouble to his plate. He is already so haggered as it is from having to spend sleepless nights working on projects to expand Yi's Group horizon. It will be a burden to him if I am to add more problem to the one he is already facing right now. So I won't tell him about it and you must keep it a secret from the three of them, particularly Yun Yi alright?", Lie Ruge's asked. She trusted her best friend with keeping secrets but she knows that Xiao Bai was not her usual self whenever she was around Yun Yi.
"OK, I will try to keep my mouth sealed all the time. You can count on me on this", Xiao Bai replied confidently although she was certain that Yun Yi will try to pry the words out of her mouth because he was very good at that.
" I will catch up with you later, I've got to go", Lie Ruge said about to disconnect the call. She knew that Yi Lan must be eagerly waiting for her arrival very soon.
"OK, tell my brother-in-law to go easy on you in bed alright? So that he will not milk you dry Ok?", Xiao Bai hung up the call immediately she said those words. She was sure Lie Ruge was going to tease her in worst manners so she quickly took precaution against such shameless teasings from her best friend. All the while Lie Ruge was on the phone with Xiao Bai, she did not know that Yi Lan has overheard part of their conversation. After overhearing the fact that someone was planning to murder his woman, he immediately stumped into his study room to make a phone call and to also cool his temper down.
" How dare they plan to harm my woman? If they think that Pretty is an easy target for them then they are very wrong. They are messing with the wrong set of people", Yi Lan said coldly to no one in particular while dialling a number on his phone.
"Hello Boss", The recipient spoke firmly.
" Send at least five of our elite men to start guarding CEO Lie starting from this very minute and emphasize it to them that CEO Lie is not allowed to notice their presence, got that? And one more thing, I want them to bring those bastards who have been lurking around her to me within 48hours. Failure to do this, get ready to be punished along with them", Yi Land said coldly. Everything he did shows that he was very angry. He was so angry that he felt like killing those bastards who were scheming against his woman in the most crulest manner. Lie Ruge on the other hand also made a call across to Firefly and Mu Le. She strictly instructed them on what to do. There was one motto she gave her men. It says, "As much as it is compulsory that you must not fail to accomplish your mission, it is also compulsory that you must not die during any operation". And everyone adheres to this two motto strictly. She has once warned them that anyone who dares to die during any mission will be her slave in their next life. After she finished making the call, she hurried downstairs so that she wouldn't keep Yi Lan waiting for a long time. She met him sitting down with his legs crossed, he was actually playing with his phone. When he noticed her presence, he quickly dropped the phone on the couch while staring at her in admiration.
" Hello wifey, why can't I get enough of you no matter how many times I stare at you? I have missed you so much even though I just saw you leave some minutes ago", Yi Lan said staring at her passionately. His angry side some moments ago had vanished the instant he set his eyes on her.
"Does staring at me makes you get enough of me then?", Lie Ruge asked curiously sitting down close to him.
