Chapter 19 - Li Rong's threat

Yue Yeager scorned in the corner like a detested puppy, 'Little Wan didn't ask for daddy.' Seeing her father sulking in the corner Yue Wan sweatdropped, so to brighten him up she said "Daddy, how come Big Brother didn't check Li Rong, he isn't as smart as you." Yue Yeager's face bulbed into million waltzes powerful smile, "Little Wan, that stinky brat needs 1000 yr to reach my level. He can't even guess this smallest thing." Yue Yeager with a proud voice made more remarks, "Your Grandpa once revealed to me that, when Xiang was a child, he always broad the wrong class." Yue Yeager came close to Yue Wan and with a ridiculing tone, "he had a very poor sense of direction as a Kid."

Yue Wan chuckled alongside her dad while imagining Yue Xiang as a small boy with a frustration look during his school days.

"ahem ahem." They both halted their actions and looked back, only to be caught by Yue Xiang with his lip curled up and a devil aura around him.

They both gulped the spit with thought, 'terrible timing.' Yue Wan knew that daddy was done for sure, with condolence voice in her mind, 'RIP Daddy.'

And for Yue Yeager, he smiled innocently at Yue Xiang and tug his hand, "Xiang you are still here, ah !! you came to remind me about the meeting, how mindful you are! Just like me in my teenage."

Yue Xiang didn't amend by seeing his shameful act however to please the big devil, Yue Yeager with a guilty expression, "I am getting aged these days that's why I forget my schedules a lot." well what he means was, 'I'm old so don't take my talk too seriously and you shouldn't hold resentment.'

Yue Wan felt embarrassed by her dad's shamelessness,'If his investors saw this, they will puke blood.'

Yue Xiang was used to it, so with a bitter tone, "We should go." Yue Yeager like a good kid tailed him with no fit, 'Little Wan, appeal to God for daddy's long life.'

Before they can leave the room Yue Wan remembered her needs, "I need software to copy a phone's data record." Yue Xiang took a Pendrive from his pocket and tossed it toward her, "connect it to the phone directly."

Yue Wan send them to the office and returned to the room.

--- Yue Wan's room ---

Yue Wan dressed herself up pretty with a full hand white shirt and a pair of brown trousers with an extra piece of cloth that covers the chest and held in place by a strap over each shoulder. She braided her wavery hair in a ponytail. After she groomed up, she took her phone and send the message.

To LiRong: XGP(Xiao Grand Plaza) in 30 min.

Yue Wan went down, "Uncle Wang I am going to XGP, If i am late, you should inform Big brother."

Uncle Wang gave her a key and said, "Yes Young Miss and Your father ordered a new car which was delivered today." Yue Wan took the key and asked, "anything else?"

"Young Master prepared one too." Uncle Wang opened the car back door and a dark little creature jumped into her embrace, Yue Wan caught it like an instinct and rubbed its fur lovingly, "A cat?"

Uncle Wang corrected her by saying, "Its an Aisaian black leopard, Young Master got it from a voyager monk."

Yue Wan felt a sudden pain in the heart like it was telling her to remember something, 'what was that?' Uncle Wang saw the same guise in her eye when she asked about Xiao Family, "Young Miss?"

Yue Wan dispersed her thought and looked at the little fellow, he had a round golden eye with a pure black fur that was so soft to touch, "I'll take him with me, bye Uncle Wang" then she left the perimeter by car.

The big black cat cuddled like a ball in her lap and slept like a baby, Yue Wan held the steering wheel in with one hand and scoured the cat then and now when it stirs in the sleep, "I forgot to ask about your food intake, How about we go shopping after my meeting, Ok Little one." The leopard let out a small grown like it sound as yes.

Yue Wan reached the plaza and escorted little one in her blossom, In XGP they will permit pets only if they are certified and Yue Wan knew her Big Brother might have already registered and just like she predicted they let Little Fellow inside with no issue. She took the elevator to reach the 4th-floor restaurant but found it-empty, 'that's odd.'

"Your 7 minute late," a rough voice which Yue Wan would never forget in her life came behind her.

Yue Wan felt an urge to pick the kife and smash it in his skull but this was not the right time so by controlling her inner demon, she turned with a brittle smile, "Li Rong."

Li Rong was 22yrs with brown hair, tall and handsome look, well to say in one word he was a player. He can be cocky, arrogant, and harsh most of the time that I had encountered, but when to achieve his goal he can be dependable, reliable and attractive. He always defined by his status in life as being the apex of success with all of the money in the world however he prefers being in charge and control.

"Yue Wan, discard the thing in your hand right now. Its a trash," Li Rong distanced himself away from her and moved to his reserved table. He sat near the window and found the seat before him still empty, "don't waste my time."

Yue Wan reacted like she didn't hear his crap, "what you want?" her voice sounds dead with no emotion.

Li Rong stiffens a little, though 'she' informed him about Yue Wan's change in behavior yet he believed it might be due to his lack of conversation, but now he felt destain in Yue Wan's voice, 'No, it's not possible, she is just playing hard to get.'

"Wan, how is your health," Li Rong asked her with his attractive voice, in past Yue Wan's heart would melt hearing it but now she wants to break his vocal cords, "You're asking the wrong person?"

Li Rong tightened his fist in the furry, early morning he received the call that his sweetheart Wan Wan being sick because she lost WAX inter-mark and award. He was so mad to break Yue Wan piece by piece but his darling doesn't want to hurt Yue Wan.

--- little flashback --

Wei Wan with a sad delicate voice, "Rong baby, I am not mad at Yue Wan. Please don't hate her."

Li Rong couldn't help contradicting her by saying, "how could you care for that whore when she never treats you samely."

Wei Wan cried over the phone, "I am sorry for not getting the award baby, I've disappointed you so much."

--- end of flashback ---

"Yue Wan, How could you harm Wei Wan, she always cares about you yet you made her like this. At first, I was planning to break this engagement but if you withdraw from the WAX event and request the director to giveback WanWan's mark, we might continue or else," Li Rong brutally decry her.

Yue Wan didn't feel any distress, she had heard this threat more than once in the past so with a calm face she took the espresso before her and petted the little one in her lap.

Li Rong got distraught seeing her absence of reaction, "Yue Wan don't test my patience."
