Not a simple woman (unedited)

"How did it happen?" Long Jie finally asked Gu Tian. He had been sitting in the car for about twenty minutes now and this was the first sentence he had spoken ever since he had sat inside the car. 

It could be said that the intensity of the news was so hard that it took several minutes for Long Jie to take in this piece of news.

Gu Tian, who was sitting on the passenger seat, looked in the mirror and saw Long Jie's blank face looking out of the window with empty eyes.

"It happened four nights ago," began Gu Tian. "Nobody knew what happened, but it was around eleven on Tuesday night when I received the news from the team of bodyguards assigned to her that she wanted to raid Du Zheng's house out of the city. Nobody could say anything before her orders. So, they left before I could join them. I wasn't in the city, Master."
