*Ring!* *Ring!*
The sound of a ringing cellphone jolted Long Jie up from his sleep. He had been sitting next to Zhenyi on the chair and didn't know when and how he fell asleep. Perhaps, he was too tired to stay awake that he had no idea how he fell asleep or maybe it was a feeling that she was near him and his subconscious let his guard down.
His brows furrowed as he glanced at the unknown number flashing on the phone screen. He pressed the decline button as he was unfamiliar with the number and if it was such an important call, they could call Gu Tian.
In short, he was not picking the call at all.
He turned around as he sensed another person in the room and as expected he saw the on-duty doctor sitting in the corner. Long Jie was pleased with their professionalism as not even for a second they had let Zhenyi out of their eyes.
Obviously, Long Jie was not aware of the punishnt the poor doctors received because of a signal doctor and the omnipotent Ryuu was not the one to impart forgiveness like grants. He was tenfold dangerous and thousand-fold more mysterious than any creature on this beautiful yet filthy earth.
It seed that the one calling Long Jie was even more persistent and stubborn to discern his cue or perhaps he didn't want to. The person on the other side dialed the number again and waited for Long Jie to take the call. But it didn't change Long Jie's resolution of not picking the call, instead, it strengthened it.
It was four am for heaven's sake. This ti he let the phone ring and get disconnected on its own. The caller tried once again and again and it continued for another few minutes.
Probably, Long Jie underestimated the persistence of the caller and in the end, he picked up the call to give whoever was calling a piece of mind.
"Don't you get the bloody mo that I don't want to pick up the damn phone?" He cursed imdiately as he slid the green sign on the phone.
Woah! Woah!
Hearing his cursing and that even so early in the dawn, the caller sighed and spoke in a low voice," Not everyone is as lucky as you to read between the invisible ssages!"
Long Jie stood up abruptly as the smoky feminine voice entered his ears.
"Esma!" Long Jie spoke in disbelief.
"Don't be so surprised okay!" Esma said, rolling her eyes. She picked her scattered clothes from the floor and cautiously left the room but not before blowing a kiss to the sleepy figure on the bed.
"Where the hell are you?" Long Jie intended to whisper but rather it ca as a yell, startling the shit out of the poor doctor.
The doctor looked at Long Jie but he gestured the doctor to go out for a few minutes as he preferred privacy.
"Don't you dare raise your voice at ! ," Esma's hissing voice ca through the phone. " Yell at your woman or those whores of yours."
She jumped from the wall of the servant quarters of the Tang Mansion and entered an alley that leads to the room where she was held captive.
Of course, that Feng bloody Siyan couldn't stop her from escaping her room. Fine, he was not in the mansion and that's why she was able to give a skip to other bodyguards.
Since she couldn't leave this haunted place, so she decided to call Long Jie, but getting a cell phone here was more tougher and troubleso than finding an oasis in the desert. Nevertheless, she managed to get it and in return, she might have given sothing. Poor Esma. Okay, stop it. Probably, this ti she got tempted, and finding the phone was just a bonus she got out of the situation.
'Well, this captive is too smart for these Earthlings!' She grinned to herself.
'Captive' she sneered at the word. 'Did she look like a captive to them? Her fantasy of captive-captor smut was shattered once Lord Tang held her hostage! She won't forgive any of them for breaking her little colorful fantasy!'
"Es--"
"Shut the hell up, Long Jie. You can't raise your voice at ." She was so irritated at him. Didn't he care for her now that he had got another bitch by his side?
For crying out loud, she fleed to China leaving that Golden cage these humans called London, and didn't he for a second thought that he had to look for his beautiful and gorgeous Esma? She was not supposed to run from London but she did. Such a sad and mournful place it was.
"No Esma, I can yell at you or even punch your pretty face if I please and you know why so damm well! Long Jie was not one to hold back either. He was going mad searching for her. He had raided the entire earth for her and now she was calling him and criticizing him for yelling at her. " You are nothing but a fugitive and what else can I do to a fugitive?"
"Thanks for gracing my precious with your sermon for the whole thirty seconds, Mr. I-am-enraged."
"I'm not enraged, Esma," said Long Jie, enraged.
"So you are mad," Esma concluded like a genius she was sotis. Still not understanding, how on Earth could sobody be mad at her?
"Took you an eternity to find, genius." Derision lacing his honeyed voice.
[Note: Esma's character is different from any other characters I have written till now. She is rude, sarcastic, witty, intelligent, brazen, outspoken , brave and most importantly an anomaly. She don't care what about what others think of her. I can't control the quantity of unholy words (very eloquent) when it cos to her. This is what makes her Esma...and many of your might find her unlady like but that's what she is. ]
This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l. c o m (remove spaces). If you're not reading 'The Typhoon's Dangerous Wife ' on W e b n o v e l, it has been stolen. It's very heartbreaking to see pirates profiting from my hard work. Please support the original author,(tanu_sam).
