Phoenix's Fated Half Chapter 187

Xue Li still had her arms wrapped around Jun Kai and looked like she was not going to let go .  

Never in a million years had he felt this helpless . He could feel his entire being filled with reluctance; reluctant to let her hug him and reluctant to shove her away .

By now all the housemaid and workers had gone and no one was lurking around . At least, no more misunderstandings .

Just then, the front door was opened in a hurry .  

Two anxious-looking figures hastily walked inside the Feng family household .  

While Xue Li had her back facing the door, Jun Kai had seen the person walking in . When he saw who it was, his eyes widened . On the other hand, the other figures had frozen in their steps . There were awkwardness and confusion placed all over the newcomers' face .

Not long, after Jun Kai had recovered, he quickly beckoned one of them to walk towards him . He then pointed at Xue Li's back and mouthed 'Help me!'

With that, the other person walked towards the two individuals . While the other quickly leapt out of the house and was gone in a split second .

"Ahem . " The newcomer announced their arrival .

Only then did Xue Li slowly released her arms around Jun Kai . Though her heart was unwilling, she let go of Jun Kai .  

She turned around, expecting someone . There was a flash of haziness in her eyes that were not comprehensible to bare eyes before disappearing . When she faced the other person, the flash of killing intent was gone and a smile was revealed on her beautiful face .

One of her brows was raised up seductively, "Lin Cheng?" Her voice trailed off .

Jun Kai who had been behind Xue Li kept signalling Lin Cheng to keep things normal . Which to his orders, Lin Cheng did a good job .  

Lin Cheng slowly bowed . When he bowed, he took a deep breath to control himself . While Lin Cheng bowed, Xue Li had her sharp eyes following him .

When Lin Cheng raised up, he smiled politely as if nothing had happened .

Xue Li, on the other hand, was staring at Lin Cheng's arm for his arm was wrapped up in a cast and a shoulder support, "What happened to you?"

Lin Cheng was quick to answer, "Replying to miss, it was just a minor injury . "

Xue Li smiled warmly, "That's good to know . " Hmph, recovering from yesterday, I suppose . She covered her eyes from Lin Cheng by looking down . Well, such a shame that he had recovered this fast but in the end, it would not stop her and that Lord .

She turned around and smiled widely to Jun Kai and all the thoughts from before had quickly vanished, "I'll take my leave then, so you two can catch up . " Xue Li then went closer to Jun Kai and then gave a small peck on his cheeks, "I'll go prepare my dress and send out the invitations . See you in two days time . " Looking at Jun Kai's dumbfounded face, she smiled and ended with, "I'll make you surprised . "

With that, Xue Li headed outside filled with joy, leaving the two men flabbergasted, especially Jun Kai . After Xue Li was gone, Jun Kai's face turned frigid . Enough of the acting he thought to himself .

He raised his hand to his cheek that must have a trace of her lipstick and wiped it emotionlessly . Just a peck and she was already this happy . He could not help but shake his head .

Lin Cheng quickly came forward to his boss with a perplexed face . However, he did not dare ask what was going on .

It was Jun Kai who had spoken first, "Lin Cheng," he began speaking even though his eyes were fixed outside the window in deep thoughts . He heaved a sigh and with his hand back in his pocket, he spoke, "Move the engagement in two days . Tell my father to prepare for it at the same hotel . I will get this done as fast as possible . "

Lin Cheng looked up at his boss and was even more worried . This was very unlike his boss, "Sir, we haven't taken down the culprit's main headquarters, yet . I fear if you expose them, they would get away . " Lin Cheng reminded his boss of the risk he was taking .

"Don't worry, I have the Long cuff sword . I'll use it to bring the culprit to me and expose them to the whole world . Justice will be met and then I will leave matters of the past to the past . " Jun Kai spoke distantly as if he was not here .

"Sir, how about miss Mi Rong?" These says it was not miss Xue Li who his boss was so into but it was miss Mi Rong . If this happened, then he feared what miss Mi Rong would think .

With Mi Rong's name being brought up, it had brought Jun Kai deep in his thoughts . Finally he spoke, "Keep the engagement away from the Xuan group at any cost . " Jun Kai had turned around to speak to Lin Cheng seriously, but Lin Cheng was full of questions .

Seeing Lin Cheng confused, Jun Kai smiled weakly, "Mi Rong is the Xuan leader . "

Lin Cheng eyes widened almost immediately; it was almost the same expression Jun Kai had when he had found out . However, soon a bad feeling was creeping up in his heart as he saw his boss' heartbroken face .  

Something must have happened, he thought to himself . Especially with how his boss had treated miss Xue Li a moment ago, it seemed his boss was simply tormenting himself with full conscious that miss Xue Li was part of the past madam's accident .  

Despite moving on to miss Mi Rong, the guilt and the call for justice had been engraved in his boss' bones . It must be done or it might be the Feng family that might see their fall .

Looking at how tired his boss was physically, deep inside his boss must be breaking . How hard did his boss have to decide on doing this, sigh . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

Lin Cheng had completely forgotten his purpose in coming to his boss that Fu Li, who had leapt outside quickly a moment ago, came inside . Fu Li bowed once towards his boss and quickly signalled Lin Cheng about the urgent matter . With that Lin Cheng came out from his thoughts and turned to speak to his boss who had turned his back towards them once again .

"Boss, about the Xuan group, sir . " Lin Cheng carefully spoke .

Jun Kai then slowly turned around with his hand still in his pocket .  

"The Xuan group are under attacked, sir . Should we send help?" Lin Cheng felt foolish, this should not have been the question . Now, since miss Mi Rong was the Xuan leader, then it was their duty to protect them . If it was before his knowledge that miss Mi Rong was the Xuan leader, then this question would have been relevant .  

As for now, the answer would have been none other than a yes .

Jun Kai's expression was grave . Who could be so daring to attack the Xuan group, unless it was the culprit . He then quickly ordered his men, "Fu Li come with me . We're bringing the entire Ke group with us and protect them all . Lin Cheng, you go and prepare for the ceremony . "

The hands inside his pockets were both clenched tightly . He was not going to lose another beloved person, not other his dead body .

…

Xue Li had gotten inside her red sports car and drove off to her apartment that she was staying . It did not take long for her to arrive at her apartment . When her red sports car drove inside the parking lot, she turned off the engines .

However, she did get out of her car immediately . Instead, she took out a phone and dialed a number .

"Wei, my Lord, the engagement will be in two days . I've dealt with Mi Rong just like we had planned . I will take care of this side and I hope your journey will go well . "

The clad in purple who was on the other line of the smiled devilishly before replying, "Good . " 

On the other side of the city, the clad in purple did not waste anymore time and took off . He was heading outside of the city straight for his target . He enjoyed hunting and this time he was going to catch a big fish .
