Zhenyi scoffed. "Protect your life, Du Zheng. Because, I , Xin Zhenyi, am looking for a single reason to kill you. Just a single reason." She pierced the dagger into his throat a little deeper still not enough to give him any serious injuries but it would surely leave a scar. A scar was enough to remind him not to ss with her again. She continued," I don't have limits but I do have morals to follow. Why can I say! Even people belonging to the mafia co with ethics which a scumbag like you won't understand."
"Don't forget your limits, Xin Zhenyi." Du Zheng was furious. No one dared to call him a scumbag. Also, no one dared to hurt him with a dagger.
"I told you before, I'm not taught any limits!"
"Haha...Do you think just because you are backed by Long Jie you are invincible?"
Zhenyi didn't reply to his question. She pushed him and then stood up to leave.
She ca like a queen and she was leaving like one too. As she exited his office, she saw the secretaries gazing at her weirdly, and then at the dagger in her hand.
They shivered under her scary eyes.
Her eyes fell on a woman as she said," You are the chief secretary?" Seeing the woman nodding, Zhenyi continued. "Good, your boss might need a doctor. I told him to perform to his limits but no he was hellbent on exceeding his limits to impress . " She saw that the secretaries were still looking at her oddly fascinated. She raised her brow and said," What are you all so shocked about? Your boss loves pleasure accompanied by pain. Tsk. Tsk. Typical people, today n carve sothing different and exciting like inflicting pain on themselves to feel pleasure."
She saw that the people in the presidential secretariat were horrified upon hearing the revelation.
She widened her eyes dramatically. "Ah, you never realized it? No wonder none of you managed to capture his attention. Such a waste of good faces."
When Zhenyi left, the chief secretary turned to look at her junior typing sothing on her phone solemnly, just as she saw the content on the phone screen, she imdiately snatched the phone horrified.
"What are you doing, Xiao Ci?" The chief secretary asked furiously.
"Chief secretary, didn't you hear what that dashing lady just said?" Xiao Ci asked her innocently. "Our boss doesn't like conventional tools like whips and chains, he like sharp-edged tools like blades, daggers--"
"Shut up, Xiao Ci if you don't want to be fired."
"Hmmph!" Xiao Ci looked at the chief secretary and then at the photo which she had captured on the phone. "So handso! I'm going to be President of that dashing lady's fan club!"
And just like this, a fan club for Zhenyi was started by the naive Xiao Ci.

Since Zhenyi had promised Long Jie that she would call him later, the first thing that she did after reaching the office was to call him.
Now they were on a video call.
Zhenyi narrated the whole maid incident and also told about the mysterious note and the troubleso Young Master.
Long Jie sighed after hearing the story. It was enough for him to know that the man who his wife was talking about was a dangerous one. Otherwise, it was impossible to hide from the eyes of Xins and Longs.
There was no one they couldn't dig through, but this Young Master was really sothing.
"Cat eyes, what did you do to attract his attention?" Long Jie asked her. No one would plan so ticulously against her if he had no reasons to.
Zhenyi pressed her lips. 'I can't lie to him. But I can't tell him the truth either.'
Long Jie, who read the hesitation in her eyes said, "Since you can't say, it's okay. You don't have to force yourself. But stay away from trouble, okay?"
Although she loved seeing him possessive of her, yet she didn't like his overprotectiveness. "Jie, don't you trust ? You think that I can't protect myself from danger. I have always been in danger. It's not the first ti that I'm doing sothing like this. "
Long Jie sighed. "I trust you the most in the world, but I don't trust him. We don't even know what kind of person he is. " He paused and said in a suffering voice, " You may not realize how deeply your accident has scared . Zhenyi… I can't sleep at night thinking if sothing happened to you again and I'm not there with you. I know that your life has always been in danger and there is nothing to fuss about. But it's different now. You are mine now. Mine to protect, mine to worry about, and... only mine. Just rember that I can't lose you again."
Zhenyi felt like pulling her hair. She couldn't win an argunt against this arrogant and stubborn man. "Ugh...you always make speechless with your cheesy talks."
"Let handle this crazy Young Master and you focus on the wedding, okay?" Long Jie tried another approach.
"Actually, I have more important tasks for you than this one. I will tell you later about it." How could she let him deal with this crazy Young Master? She couldn't tell him about Long Ah-Shaan without learning the whole truth.
"As my wife wishes."
Zhenyi's eyes suddenly fell behind Long Jie. There was sothing yellow-colored object that caught her attention. It was late there and Long Jie was on the bed, preparing to sleep when Zhenyi called him.
"Is it the teddy I see behind you?" Zhenyi asked him suspiciously.
Long Jie turned around to find that it was undoubtedly Faye's toy. She was playing in his room before. Maybe she left it there.
"That's Angel's toy. It seed like she left it here," Long Jie said as if it was not a big deal. He knew that he could trust Zhenyi with Faye's matter.
"Angel?" Zhenyi whispered. She was suddenly reminded of Ryuu.
