Instinct

"Hey , do you know you've been lowering your guard down against me ?" , Xi Mu faces her .

Xiu laughed . "Haha...did I ?" , she asked shamelessly .

"Yeah , you've been speaking down to me from the start . I'm older you know" , Xi Mu protested .

"Did I ? That's because I'm comfortable around you , let's just drop the formality , huh ?"

"You already did it . Also, I'm older than your so call brother , Qi Mu Yan"

"Hey , you're so childish ! Do you need to bring his name in this matter ?!"

"Yeah , I'm childish ! Why ? Wanna hit me ?" , Xi Mu sticked his tongue out just like a child would act .

They bickering just like a husband and a wife that full of jealousy . Xiao Lu who has been there from the start makes a weird face . It just a 'speak formal' matter , why do you even need to fight against it , boss ? Just admit you wanna be called something special boss .

"Hey" , Xiu grabbed his hand suddenly , fix her position and face him .

"What ? Do you not feel well ? You wanna go in now ?" , Xi Mu asked her many questions as he worried about her .

"Do you have a gun with you ?"

"Yeah , I have it . Why ?" , Xi Mu noticed she was acting weird .

"Hand it to me , quietly" , she said with her straight face .

He didn't ask more questions and hand her his gun smoothly that even Xiao Lu did not see it .

"What do you need it for ?" , Xi Mu asked after he handed his gun to her .

"You didn't place any of your bodyguards at the back in the woods , right ?"

Xi Mu smiled as he know what she means , "Yeah , I did not"

Bang!

Xiu fired towards the back in the woods . Xiao Lu shocked by the sound and take his gun out and point it's to her . Then , he saw the gun she hold and noticed that was Xi Mu's specially made gun . He realized it and lower his gun and went to the woods to check it .

Xi Mu take the gun from her , "Your sight is pretty good ,girl" , he said and pat her head .

"Who's your girl , huh ?" , she pushed him .

"How do you know there's a spy in there ?"

"Huh , he's been obvious from the start and....my instinct ? Who knows ?"

"Instinct...hmm...interesting , so you just trust your instinct to believe me ? Do you trust me that much ?"

Xiu smiled and answer , "Hmm...I don't know , maybe my instinct working just fine , or maybe it will betray me again , just like him" , she sighed .

"It didn't betray you . Maybe you just had been blinded by the long time you've been with him and you ignored the instinct you have so you don't need to believe he choose to betray you , right ?"

Xiu smiled painfully , she know what he means . There was the time she suspect her cousin doing something behind her back but she acted like nothing happens . She just believed that Mu Yan did it just for something else and who knows , the target is me . "Yeah , I've ignored it for a while , he has a sudden change but I don't take it seriously . I just thought he tired from his father's expectation but here I am , attacked by him"

Xi Mu pat her back to soothe her anger . "Let's go inside . The wind is chilly here . You will get sick" , Xi Mu pulled her hand .

Xiu just nodded and let him take her inside .

...

Pang!

Qi Mu Yan fell to the floor .

"I said to kill her ! Why did you let her go like that ?!"

"Sorry , father . I failed you again"
