This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Yuriko Shizuka?
It suddenly struck to her that the terrifying girl wearing a red kimono could cut someone’s hand without hesitation. Thinking about that, Xia Ning couldn’t help shivering.
The woman should dare to come here.
Provocation or on business?
As soon as Jing Shu finished talking, Xiaoniao suddenly rose to his feet and stood in front of Xia Ning.
At this moment, only a loud “bang” was heard and the door of the electronic lock had been blown apart.
All of a sudden, seven or eight bodyguards in black suits rushed into the chief editor’s office and stood on either side.
Glancing at the blown-up door, Xia Ning thought they were truly deserved to be a sinister gang.
“Sister Xia, Long time no see.”
The voice was so soft that made men’s hearts flutter. And then a petite person gradually walked in. A tall and medium-sized woman with long hair was indeed Yuriko Shizuka.
Judging from her naive and sincere face, she was quite beautiful and alluring. One could never imagine how cruel she was before knowing her very well.
A year ago, in the base of the Third Rear Group, Xia Ning was very terrified of this murderous killer. Now, at this moment, there was still a hint of scruples in her heart. But it was the courage rather than timidity that pushed her forward. This was her site so Xia Ning was gonna conquer her mentally at all costs.
Moreover, with her current ability, she was not inferior to Yuriko Shizuka.
Having thought that she would be afraid, Xia Ning could definitely tell the provocation and contempt from Yuriko Shizuka’s eyes. So, from that time on, Xia Ning knew exactly that she shouldn’t give in.
Show her some signs of despise? Whereby?
With the corner of her mouth rising slightly, Xia Ning sat down and took a sip of coffee. She then said, “Miss Yuriko, it has been a long time since we last met. Just have a seat and take a cup of coffee.”
Xia Ning’s reaction made Yuriko Shizuka astonished. Just one year ago, Xia Ning was so afraid of her as if a mouse saw a cat. But it was the case in Japan. Many people were frightened when they heard of her name and they didn’t dare to talk to her face to face. How come Xia Ning dared to tell her to sit down and have a cup of coffee?
“Sister Xia, is there wine here? I’d like some plum wine.” Yuriko smiled with signs of innocence on her face.
“Sorry, only coffee is available.”
“But what I want is plum wine…”
“You can get someone to buy it for you. We don’t have any here.” Xia Ning interrupted with a cold voice.
As soon as Xia Ning finished talking, the bodyguard behind Yuriko suddenly took out a gun with its muzzle aimed at Xia Ning.
“Hissing…”
Suddenly, a few slight cracking sounds were heard as if something had rubbed against her ears. Yuriko frowned slightly but the bodyguard behind her screamed bitterly.
‘Bang, bang…’
That was the sound of the gun falling on the ground. Yuriko turned and a strand of black hair broke off and fell to the ground.
The bodyguards behind her all covered their hands to which knives adhered upright, bleeding profusely.
Confronted with what happened, Yuriko froze on the spot.
These darts… The man standing in front of her was a master.
With such a powerful person around to protect her, it was no wonder that Xia Ning had no fear.
“Miss Yuriko, just be seated and have a cup of coffee.” Faced with the complaints, Xia Ning waved her hands and welcomed Yuriko back to her seat as if nothing had happened.
Glancing at the man who was eating the lollipop, Yuriko lifted her chin and sat down in front of Xia Ning.
Right at the time, a cup of freshly brewed coffee was placed in front of Yuriko by Jing Shu.
“Please help yourself to some coffee, Miss Yuriko.” Jing Shu greeted her and went back to Xia Ning.
Yuriko raised an eyebrow. Catching sight of this, others would flee in fright. But Jing Shu still remained calm. It seemed that Xia Ning had many undiscovered talents around.
Taking a sip of her coffee, Yuriko frowned, “So sweet! Sister Xia, is this coffee?”
“Sure.” With a smile on her face, Xia Ning touched her abdomen and said, “I’m pregnant now and can’t be exposed to as much caffeine. So, Jing Shu put some milk within. Miss Yuriko, you are gonna do with some of it now.”
The sweet smile on Xia Ning’s face fell into Yuriko’s eyes, which was the most piercing thing in the world. She was eager to tear the woman in front of her into pieces with her sword.
Although Yuriko was still smiling, Xia Ning knew exactly what she was thinking about. Yuriko said that she loved Yi Yunrui. Her visit this time could be tricky.
“What do you want? Miss Yuriko.”
“How long are you gonna stay with Mr. Yi?”
“…” Xia Ning was kind of speechless and said to her, “Being a couple is a lifelong thing.”
Yuriko smiled coldly, “Just one year for you.”
A year? Xia Ning smiled and said, “What for?”
“You can give birth to his baby in a year’s time. Rest assured. I will take over the role well after you leave. If I am to be with Mr. Yi, he will be better than he is. If you love Mr. Yi, you should let him go.”
Xia Ning raised her eyebrows and said, “You think you are more suitable for Yi Yunrui than I am?”
“Yes.” Having put down the coffee cup, Yuriko said seriously, “Mrs. Xia, I know you are now the board chairman of Junhao and the chief editor of World Era Weekly. It seems that your social status is a perfect match with that of Mr. Yi. But Japan is the only country that the legitimization of gangsters is accepted. The power of the Third Rear Group spread throughout Japan and I am the future leader. With me, Mr. Yi will get a country. A country or a multinational enterprise. Sister Xia, it’s easy to judge which one is more crucial.”
Xia Ning’s eyes darkened and the coffee in her cup was placed harshly on the table, making a lot of coffee out of the cup, “Miss Yuriko, you mean your love for Rui can be measured by money?”
Yuriko blinked and the smile on her face was even brighter, “Yes, love cannot be measured by money. This is nothing more than a means used by us to deceive ourselves. The truth is that love can be measured by the amount of money. Don’t you, the people of Celestial Empire, have a saying that goes ‘feelings can be cultivated step by step’. At the beginning, Mr. Yi definitely loves you. But if you two get on with each other for a long time, I am gonna replace you some day. After all, you and Mr. Yi only have four years of affection and there will be decades after that. Time will tell his choice.”
It seemed that the girl in front of her had possessed very strong sophistry ability and she would be worthy of being the future boss of the Third Rear Group.
“Miss Yuriko, do you know how many women have said that in the past four years?”
“Those women were daydreaming and they were not qualified. People like Mr. Yi should become the hegemon of one side and I can make it come true.”
“Hahaha!” Xia Ning laughed out loud.
Yuriko tilted her head and continued, “Sister Xia, I know it’s cruel to you. No woman is willing to let a good man, like Mr. Yi, go. So, a year will be left for you. A year of memories, it’s enough for you to reminisce for a lifetime. Besides, so many women want to marry such a husband. Haven’t you ever had it? You’re already fortunate enough.”
Xia Ning smiled coldly in her heart. What Yuriko said was like that Yi Yunrui was a charity for Xia Ning.
“My husband is not a cargo that can be delivered to others, especially those dubious ones.”
Yuriko felt disappointed at first but returned to calm quickly and said, “Sister Xia, you are a cultured person. So, you are supposed to be well-behaved while talking.”
“I would not blow up the door of someone else even if I was not that well-behaved.” Xia Ning said straight from the shoulder, “You say that if Rui marries you, he will get a country. You say you can bring happiness to Rui and you love him. But have you ever respected him? Have you ever thought about whether he needs them?”
“Are there any man who doesn’t want money and power?”
“But Rui could get all of these on his own. He doesn’t need any woman to bring the so-called glory to him. Unwanted or incapable, it differs greatly from each other. Yes, I am not as good as you in terms of power and money. But he will be totally demeaned by you if you say that. You don’t understand him at all. How can you give him what he wants or even happiness? Miss Yuriko, just talk to me when you become more mature. Perhaps at that time, Rui would think a bit highly of you.”
Yuriko Shizuka looked at Xia Ning tightly and sipped her thin lips without saying a word. After a long time, she said, “Xia Ning, I want you to kneel down and apologize.”
“Why?”
“If you don’t kneel down and apologize, the bomb installed here will explode after my permission. I am not sure how many people will be killed.”
Xia Ning felt a chill in her heart and stood up suddenly, “Yuriko Shizuka, what did you do? Are you not afraid of being punished by law?”
“Law?” As if hearing something funny, Yuriko laughed, “Sister Xia, I don’t think you know the Third Rear Group yet. I am the heir of the Third Rear Group and a pivotal figure to Japan. I enjoy diplomatic immunity. Even if I do something illegal here, I will only be sent back to my country at most. Do you think I will be convicted by Japan?”
Xia Ning gritted her teeth. In face of absolute power, human life was not taken into account.
At this moment, there were several cries outside the door. And after a while, Man walked in with a pistol in his hand. This pistol was exactly the same as the pistol that fell on the ground. Judging from that, the cries showed that Yuriko’s bodyguards were cleared away by Man.
With a snap, Man poured out all the bullets in the pistol and threw the pistol aside.
The pistol went right to the head of one bodyguard and then a cry followed.
“Chief Editor, everything is ‘packed’. Have a check please.” With that, Man put the black bag in his hand on the table, then turned around, and sat back down in his place. He then took a lollipop out, unwrapped, and ate it as if no one was around.
Xia Ning was stunned. Did she ever ask Man to take something for her?
Hold on. It seemed that Man had figured something out. What was it in this black bag? Could it be…?
