The Typhoon's Dangerous Wife

 'is'...

His eyes widened as the realization dawned on him. Xin Zhenyi was not dead. She was alive. And the man in front of him was her husband. He gasped for air. Suddenly, he could see his future replaying before his eyes. He would be killed for attacking Zhenyi and who knew better than goons like him the barbarity of the devil in front of him. 

Long Jie and Xin Zhenyi? No. No. It couldn't be. They were each other's greatest enemies. How could they… It was cheating? He was cheated. Why did no one know that these two families were one now?

Long Jie shoved his face against the broken mirror again and the shattered pieces of glasses poked into his skin and more blood oozed out. His tanned face now looked like that he had been thrust inside the bucket of red paint. 

"Please…" He begged in a whimper. 

Long Jie exhaled out and hissed. "Mercy? And on you? No way. You will die at my hands but before you give me some answers." 

"You will kill me if I answer your questions. I know how you people work." 

"I won't shoot you. And this banging won't kill you, both of us know it," said Long Jie with no emotions in his voice. Obviously, he wouldn't tell or show how much he wanted to end him before getting the answers he desired. 

"I don't trust you," the man said in almost a moan. 

"You know we are the men of our words. That's how our world works. If I say I won't shoot you, meaning I won't shoot you," answered Long Jie. Worse came to worse, if he didn't get answers he might have to keep him alive. 

He nodded like a child had been handed a candy. No dear kiddo, you were the lamb who was fed before the slaughter. 

"I don't know who ordered me to bomb the cars." He whimpered like an idiot. If Zhenyi knew that this cry baby bombed her car, she would shoot Long Jie too with him. So, he must kill him before she woke up. 

Long Jie neither spoke nor removed his eyes from his face. Someone knocked on the door as if to check if someone was inside. They must have heard the sound of a broken mirror. 

For heaven's sake, they were in a public washroom. 

"Scream and I will bang your skull against the wall again," Long Jie softly said as if he was talking to a kid. There was something about Long Jie that made him the complete opposite of Zhenyi. He never really yelled at the opposite party when he was pissed off. In fact, his voice became softer, as though he wanted to haunt those around him.

"Please…" The fool whimpered again. 

Long Jie rubbed his face and heaved out a long sigh before saying, "Let's try again. What's your name?" 

"Er-Eros." He stammered. 

"And why did you take the order?" questioned Long Jie as he grabbed his head again but he didn't smash it like before. 

Long Jie didn't want to kill him by smashing his head. It would be too insulting for him. The new boss of the famous mob family killed the man who almost assassinated his wife by smashing his head against the bathroom mirror.

Nope. Not like this. He just had to ask his wife to show him some tricks to show off her slayings when she woke up. 

'One more reason for you to wake up, Cat eyes.' Long Jie said in his heart. 

"She is worth billions. Two billion. The price on her head." There was a twinkle in Eros's eyes when he talked about two billion. 

'Two billion? His wife was invaluable. And if dumbheads like him started killing her, she won't be Zhenyi.'

Moreover, did Eros ever think he wouldn't be able to live long enough to use those two billion? That's why he called him a fool. 

"I took the order on the dark market," answered the man. 

"Understandable," Long Jie said. 

 "How did you manage to fool her security? And both of us know that her security is even tighter than the president of the country." The question had been worrying Long Jie the most since the time Wei had shown him the so-called evidence. 

"It was not a problem," Eros uttered. Self-confidence oozing from his sorry face. "Call it a fluke or whatever but I easily fooled her security." 

Long Jie raised his brows. " I easily planted the bombs in five of their cars. The four of them belong to security. Nobody noticed when I was hiding between the bodyguards."

"And?"

"Nothing. I know nothing else. I tried to kill her for the money. I've no other reasons for killing her. Please now leave me. Why don't you catch the real killer? It was not even my fault. I didn't know she was your wife if I had known she was your wife I wouldn't have touched her less than think about her." 

Long Jie nodded. He turned to leave the washroom before he took out his gun and pointed at his head. 

His eyes widened as he looked at the gun pointed at his head. " You said you won't shoot me. You are a man of words."

"I've been breaking my words these days. If I break one more, I don't think it will affect it much. Don't you think so?" Long Jie asked, a smirk playing on his lips. 

"No... No..." Bang Bang. 

Two bullets left the gun and hit the mirror and the leftover pieces of the mirror fell into the sink. 

"I will keep my words. I won't shoot you no matter how much tempted I'm to unload this magazine in your empty head. I won't," said Long Jie and left the washroom.
