Queen Revenge

“For a lifetime.”

Yao Mubai’s mouth repeated my words, the voice was small, very light, like it broke the void and came from the distant sky.

He’s lost in thought again.

“Yao Mubai?” I frowned and called him, “You saved me three times, the gift of saving my life can’t be repaid with money, and you need it, but you can’t let me cook for you all the time, there has to be a deadline.”

“One year.” He casually said, “During this year, you come to the house every Saturday to cook for me, yes, by the way, do the hygiene as well, so I don’t have to call a bellhop to come over.”

The corner of my mouth twitched, that’s pretty much ‘by the way’.

One year, it’s still within the period I accept.

“Good.” I also didn’t really want to owe him a favor, and suddenly thinking of Wang Yuan’s misunderstanding, I said, “But this matter you must explain to Wang Yuan and Liu Xin and the others, so that they don’t misunderstand.”

“Misunderstand what?” Yao Mubai had a look of uncertainty, “Why should I explain to them?”

This was embarrassing for me and I didn’t know how to answer.

I couldn’t say that Wang Yuan misunderstood that Yao Mubai and I were having an affair.

There are some things that are better misunderstood than being embarrassed by each other after they are revealed, otherwise Yao Mubai would really think that I have thoughts about him.

I thought about it, but still skirted around the topic, “It’s nothing, you eat, I’m leaving.”

“Wait.” He quickly drank the soup in the bowl, got up and said, “It’s too late, I’ll send you.”

The word “no” was still in his mouth, Yao Mubai had already picked up his jacket and put it on, walking towards the door.

I swallowed back my words and followed him out.

Yao Mubai closed the door, but did not leave immediately, his finger poked and prodded at the fingerprint lock, not knowing what he was doing, I was about to open my mouth and ask him, he suddenly grabbed my hand, his hand was very warm.

“Yao Mubai, you …”

He pinched my thumb and pressed his fingerprint on the combination lock, only to hear a ‘ding’ sound, my fingerprint was successfully authenticated on it.

I looked at him in surprise, “No what is this for?”

His narrow and deep eyes were as deep and invisible as a secluded pool, “Come by yourself every Saturday.”

His door doesn’t need a key, with fingerprints, this is giving me the right to come in and out of his house as I please.

This is a dangerous thing for you to let strangers into your home, he’s not afraid of me stealing trade secrets? Going against him?

There was that small shock and surprise in my heart.

I looked at him and asked, “Aren’t you afraid of what I might do in your home? Or if I’m kidnapped and threatened by Ke Zhen again someday, I might just bring him to your home, and you’d be equivalent to giving your back to someone you can’t trust at all.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

This was a very possible scenario.

After all, Ke Zhen has his eyes on me, if I’m really in danger one day, in order to save my life, I can’t be sure if I’ll betray Yao Mubai.

The corner of Yao Mubai’s mouth hooked up an imperceptible arc, his tone contained thick contempt, “Can’t be trusted? You despise yourself so much?”

Obviously with sarcastic words, in the past, I would have exploded in anger, but for some reason, his words fell into my ears, but let my heart shocked hard, no anger at all.

What did he mean?

He trusts me?

Even though I was very surprised in my heart, my face remained motionless, I unconsciously pinched my fingers and said, “I call this self-knowledge, I heard Wang Yuan say that you guys completely separate your lives from your work, especially your residence, which is usually not allowed to be entered by anyone, not even the closest of people.”

His deep eyes gazed at me for an instant, and after half a second, he said, “You’re different.”

Different?

“Where is it different?”

Yao Mubai walked towards the elevator, pressed the elevator, turned back to look at me, said with a smile, “You did not say that you are being watched by Ke Zhen, maybe one day you can really lead Ke Zhen to me, right, then remember to be sure to lead the person to me to the home, I do not need to bother, directly to a turtle in a jar, is not better.”

A nameless fire popped up in the bottom of my heart, I said, “You’re using me as bait?”

Yao Mubai turned back, stared at the elevator wall and said, “My home is not so good to enter, everywhere is a mechanism.”

“Organs? How come I didn’t find it?”

He snorted coldly and said contemptuously, “If you were allowed to discover all of them, then what’s the point of calling them organs?”

The elevator came and he stepped in, adding, “Alva Hill, if you’re ever in real danger, just bring the people towards home and leave the rest, you hear me?”

He looked serious, not like he was joking.

“Got it, what’s with the fierceness.” I skimmed my mouth, “You think I’m really stupid, when the time comes, I’ll definitely save my life and bring the people to you.”

“That’s right.”

The elevator closed, I looked at Yao Mubai reflected on the elevator wall, his eyebrows contained a light smile.

I couldn’t understand Yao Mubai’s operation, soon, the elevator arrived and I followed him out.

Yao Mubai stood at the entrance of the underground parking lot, his eyes looked around vigilantly, before he walked towards his car and pulled open the door, “Get in.”

Thinking of the injury on his back, I said, “It’s better if I drive.”

With his hand on the door, he paused, walked around to the passenger side, and actually let me drive.

I took a deep breath and got in and started the car.

He sat on his side and began to pay attention to his wounds, and as soon as he got in the car, he closed his eyes and recuperated.

There were no words on the way, and when we got to the door of THE Hill family, he suddenly said, “Remember, every Saturday.”

At his reminder, I said nonchalantly, “Got it, and you’re not afraid I’ll put laxatives in the meal then.”

He laughed, “Attempted murder is going in for rehabilitation, you can try.”

I got out of the car, purposely slammed the door heavily, he said, “But don’t take it out on my car, damaged to see how I clean you up.”

“Bluffing.” I didn’t believe him.

He leaned his hand against the car door and suddenly said with a straight face, “Contact Martin Mo and ask him to come to me, only you can call him.”

I was puzzled, “Ask Martin Mo to come to you? What is it?”

“Something about Mo Tianxiong.” Yao Mubai said, “You let come here, otherwise by the fifteenth, don’t regret if you are late.”

The fifteenth was the day of the first trial.

“I know.” I said, “I will definitely bring the word.”

After saying that, I went in without looking back, so I didn’t realize what was happening behind me while I was out of sight.

It was one in the morning.

The house was dark, I turned on the wall light, changed my shoes, and was about to go into my room to rest when I heard tiny footsteps upstairs.

It seemed like the sound of high heels.

I wondered in my heart, who was walking around upstairs at this late hour when the servants were all asleep?

I frowned and went upstairs to check.

When I had just walked up the last set of steps, I screamed at the scene in front of me.
