The Files

Liu Zilong who was sitting leisurely on the single seated sofa, was holding a warm cup of tea.

When he arrived in the main entrance earlier, Chen Dewei was still on his way.

He met a couple of people he couldn't recognize and thought that they're Chen Dewei's men, but he was wrong.

He couldn't help but wonder if something happened before he arrived.

He was briefly informed that another group barged in making the 'rescue' of his sister in law easier and faster.

When Chen Dewei arrived he was already waiting in the living room.

After exchanging with fake pleasantries, he was guided towards the mansion.

"It seemed you mistook my sister in law with someone else." He said maintaining the smile that he's been wearing since he came in.

"I didn't expect to have few guests this time of the day." Chen Dewei answered returning a smile that could hide sharp daggers behind.

"You need to expect the unexpected especially if you take someone's who's not yours to begin with."

"That's debatable."

Liu Zilong lowered his gaze as he seemed to focus on the tea before he spoke.

"Third Young Master Chen, it's not really good to provoke Little Zi." He murmured.

His younger brother wasn't as diplomatic as him. As much as possible he didn't want to complicate things further and if they could settle this as quietly as possible, it's better.

But this Chen Dewei wasn't really cooperating. They've been dancing with words since they met earlier but he still didn't deny nor admit what he did.

It seemed that this man fixed his sight on provoking Liu Zijian.

Did he have a grudge against his brother?

Or he really wanted his sister in law?

Chen Dewei just widened his smile but didn't utter another word. It wasn't clear if he heard what Liu Zilong said or not.

"Clearly, my brother just picked up his wife. He might drop by one day at your office to express 'his' 'thanks' for 'saving' her."

"I'll be waiting. I won't also pursue further the damages done in this mansion while your brother picked her up as I failed to recognize I got the wrong person. Consider that as my apology."

"Sure." Liu Zilong replied and stood up ready to leave. "Well then, I'll take my leave. I already did what I was ordered to."

After Liu Zilong left, Chen Dewei went to the study.

Except for Han Meixiu, there's no other things or records beneficial for the Liu Family in this place.

Why would they turn this room upside down? What were they looking for?

If not LCG, could there be another group?

'Madam Bai!'

Maybe she availed the 'service' of LCG to get some kind of information in his study.

But it's her first time in Q City. How could she instantly get in contact with LCG?

LCG was only known thru connections. And not all family could request their 'service'.

He already investigated the woman after they met in the Yang's property. It was clearly a made up identity.

Recalling the meeting he had with the woman, his expression became restless.

She must have a powerful backing. Who could it be?

The room in Blue Moon could only be used by influential people.

Could it be the Liu Family?

If Madam Bai's backing was indeed Liu Family, that would explain the reason why she requested a meeting with him to give Liu Zijian a chance to infiltrate.

But it would not explain why she didn't tell the Liu's that he has Han Meixiu? Besides, her 'request' was not in a bit related to the Liu Family.

Or maybe it is. Only, he's not aware of it?

He's probably missing something.

He should know what those people took inside his study.

He roamed around the room checking documents here and there. He didn't really have much too important papers in this place.

Looking at the cabinet near the corner and beside the towering bookshelf, the third drawer was slight moved. Looking from a far it seemed the same from before.

In this room full of unorganized things, this was indeed an indication that something's amiss in that drawer.

True enough, one of the folder was missing.

'What would they do with it?'

It was a folder of a finished contract of someone he hired in the past.

'Hold on!'

Did Liu Zijian know the connection of that contract to Han Meixiu?

Should he be worried?

Chen Dewei smiled.

It would be better if Liu Zijian would find out that he had his eyes first on Han Meixiu way ahead of him.

Then maybe he would yield?

He actually started to look forward with their meeting in the future. He could always negotiate.

He eventually calmed down a little and tried to look if there's other documents missing.

That folder didn't hold much importance or threat for that matter initially, but if he could use it in order to obtain what he wanted, then it's value for him would be really great.

It could serve as an initial transaction for a series of information he could give the Liu Family.

Black.com, where he hired that man, was Liu's Family's nemesis. He could provide more important information in exchange of her.

That would probably a sweet deal. He could try.

If it's not, then he would think of another method.

There was no other folder missing after he searched for quite sometime.

'If not the normal files, then what about...'

He looked at the computer nearby.

There was a string of words appearing on the screen the moment he opened it.

Thank you!

'Thank you for what?' Chen Dewei asked himself.

Just what file did those people get worthy of saying 'thank you'?

Before Chen Dewei could check what file was 'touched', someone came in.

"Third Young Master Chen, what should we do with the woman?"

The woman that Liu Zilong returned.

She was clearly drugged. He saw her being carried in earlier when he arrived.

Whether she talked or not, he didn't really care. At least not for now.

He thought he was fully prepared taking Han Meixiu in. But he didn't expect that Liu Zijian would be too attached to her.

Originally, he somewhat hoped that the few times he saw them together being intimate without a care in the world, were just for show.

But clearly, it's not the case. But he didn't let go of his plan to negotiate.

Who knows, as long as there's a tiny bit of possibility, if not Liu Zijian, he could try to persuade the current head of Liu Family. No matter how Liu Zijian hold on to Han Meixiu if Mr. Liu would agree to his request, then the Second Young Master Liu could only divorce his wife.

But, Liu Zijian seemed not his only opponent this time.

There could be another force.

"Same room. I'll deal with her later." He simply said and finally checked his computer.

'Hospital records?'

What would they do with those information?

The file that was touched, was dated even before he took over the Chen Family.

Chen Dewei was completely puzzled.

'What's so important in that file?'
