Chapter 700 Wayward Lady

Chapter 700 Wayward Lady　　Originally, Xiang Wai and Xiang Weimin were gonna follow their father and grandfather back home but then they both decided to give some personal time to this father and son who were actually willing to sit down and talk to each other after so long.

In the end, Xiang Wai had to use her charm as a granddaughter to find Mu Chenyan's whereabouts from her grandfather. 

And that's how these siblings arrived at the secret base where Mu Chenyan was keeping Ruan Meilin. Looking at the building before her, Xiang Wai commented, "This is grand."

"Let's go inside," said Xiang Weimin and took her inside. 

The people standing guard at this place might not have known these two siblings before but since they entered the door of Xiang Manor, every single employee of the Xiang family knew about their identities. It was to make sure that no ignorant fool could slight them.

And because of this, they faced no obstruction and easily reached the basement where Ruan Meilin was kept. As they walked inside and looked at the scene in front of them, both of them didn't even flinch. Seeing tortures and such was normal for both of them. 

However, they both were actually quite surprised by now they didn't get to see any blood. But from the way Ruan Meilin looked, it seemed this battle might be bloodless but it definitely was excruciatingly painful.

"Aunt?" 

Mu Chenyan looked back and the chill on her face thawed when she looked at her niece and nephew. She even smiled at them sweetly. 

"What are you both doing here? You shouldn't be here," said Mu Chenyan. 

"Do you think this scene is unsuitable for us as well?" asked Xiang Wai in amusement.

Mu Chenyan shook her head, "No. I already know you both are used to it. It's just that you both are dignified soldiers, you shouldn't be in this lawless place with gangsters like us."

"If only you're a normal gangster," commented Xiang Weimin as he looked at Ruan Meilin with a cold and piercing gaze. If Mu Chenyan hadn't taken this matter into hand, he would have burned this woman alive for doing such a horrible thing to his sister. 

But even if he was the elder brother, it wasn't his turn to do anything for Raelle. She had plenty of people who were ready to stand up for her.

Ruan Meilin's head was tilted down as she was chained to the wall now. Her clothes were still dripping water. 

Someone brought a sringye filled with a bluish liquid to Mu Chenyan and asked, "Mistress, should we begin?"

Mu Chenyan hesitated as she looked at her niece and nephew. It wasn't that she was worried about them. But she really thought it wasn't right for them to be here. If anyone heard about this, their remarkable career would have a stain on it. And she didn't want to see that. But then again, she could make sure no one would ever find out.

Forget it! She should stop thinking since they were already here.

"Aunt, what's that?" asked Xiang Wai curiously.

"Is that the 'exterminator'?" asked Xiang Weimin at the same time and it suddenly struck Xiang Wai as well. She looked intently at that bluish liquid in that syringe.

She was familiar with it as well. After all, she worked in the special forces. And they had to use this 'exterminator' on the spies who were too stubborn to open their mouths. It was dubbed as the truth serum. It gave the subject an excrutiating pain that the subject would rather die than face that pain.

"No," answered Mu Chenyan. "This is the devil's potion."

Xiang Weimin's eyes widened, "How did you get it? Even the military never got their hands on it. That syndicate might work for the government, but mostly the government doesn't have any control over their operations. Even military isn't on good terms with their senior executives."

"Of course, I know all that," replied Mu Chenyan. "But you see, I have a Jie who is a director in that syndicate. She doted on me a lot. So, getting this potion wasn't really a big deal. I just had to give her a call. Oh and I have to take her out for a meal and drinks."

Xiang Wai's lips twitched when she heard that, "People from that organization are that easy to get along with?"

"Yeah," said Mu Chenyan nonchalantly.

"Anut, who is it that you know in that organization?" asked Xiang Weimin.

"Director Su," replied Mu Chenyan without any hesitation. She had no reason to hide it from her own family. 

"You mean, Director Su Feifei?" Xiang Wai asked in disbelief. Seeing how her aunt nodded, she went on, "I heard she is a wayward lady."

"You shouldn't speak like that about your elders," said Mu Chenyan. "But you're right. Jie is surely a wayward lady. But I like her."

Xiang Wai still couldn't believe that Mu Chenyan could reach such an organization and a person of that position as well. She had heard way too many things about Mu Chenyan but hearing was one thing, seeing was believing. 

"Aunt, just what kind of connections do you have?" asked Xiang Wai in a puzzled manner.

"I told you, I used to hang out with people who at this time can command the wind and waters," said Mu Chenyan. "Inject it," she ordered her people. "Do you both know why military had been so intrusted in this devil's potion? It's because it's far worse than the so-called truth serum in their hands. This liquid feels like acid flowing through your veins. It does no damage to one's body but it makes you want to die. Tsk. If only my Elle didn't want us to leave any physical wounds. I had even better ways. But I had to look for these tricks to torture just to satisfy my family's precious."

Ruan Meilin, who looked lifeless instantly started squirming when that liquid was injected into her body. Even Xiang Wai tutted to herself when she saw her condition. This is why one should look at the owner before hitting the dog. Some people really look for their own deaths.
