Dear Young Master Spare Me Please? - 207 The Entanglemen
miller picked liu zijian at the airport who was accompanied by ye long.
it wasn’t easy to find the place as they would often hide and shake off if they would thought someone was tailing them.
along the way, miller, explained to the second young master liu what happened.
first young master liu was in his usual routine, gathering information about the biggest hotel chain that dominated the country’s hospitality industry.
but even though the performances of those hotels for the past years were not really good, the owner didn’t budge every time he would offer.
liu zilong wanted to find a hole in that seemingly impenetrable wall of the owner.
he then found out that there’s an multiple drug dealing in the hotels that could be the source of ‘income’ of the hotel.
this was exactly what liu zilong was looking for. a weakness.
he was in the middle of building his influence to those people and was finally able to be invited to a big drug deal meeting in one of the hotels in the suburbs.
unfortunately that night turned out to be the unexpected as the group was attacked.

“you’re saying that he was in a presidential luxury room with the others when they were attacked?”
“yes, second young master.”
“and all are dead except him?”
“yes. we were outside as we’re not allowed to enter. we only found out something’s a miss after an order arrived and the door wasn’t opened.”
“it wasn’t on the news?”
“no. the authorities suppressed it as the people inside had identity that shouldn’t be publicize, for now.”
liu zijian pondered for all the possibilities. but only hearing miller’s story, there’s a lot of holes in that scenario.
“someone spare his life.” liu zijian uttered.
“that was what were thinking as well.”
“why didn’t you send him to the hospital?”
“second young master, the people died in that room were holding higher positions in their own organization. if he expose that first young master is the only one alive, he could be an easy target.”
miller was right.
“how is he?”
“he’s safe now but we’re worried how can we move him out of this country without alerting those people.”
liu zijian didn’t talk afterwards.
he was thinking if his brother was really spared or the assailant just wanted him to suffer more. the incident could be an inside job and they wanted to pin someone as escape goat thus they kept him alive.
he should talk to his brother to know what happened inside.

liu zijian’s worries kept piling up as he tried to analyze the situation and at the same time think of a possible solution.
they arrived in a small decent house and miller left right away after showing him the door of liu zilong’s room.
thinking that his brother might have been suffering from a very serious injury and without excellent medical care, liu zijian barged inside without knocking.
the moment he saw his brother, he wanted to turn around and go back to the airport.
“little zi! you’re fast! i guess my position in your heart still remains, huh?”
liu zilong said as he sat comfortably on the sofa and was holding a magazine. in front of him was a set of snacks.
liu zijian stared at his brother annoyingly. of course, he’s perfectly fine!
he woke up early, left his half awake wife and worried himself to death only to see him leisurely spending his morning like this?
did he also deceive his assistant?
after calming himself, he sat down in front of him.
“why do you want me to be here?”
liu zilong closed the magazine and smiled at him.
“woman’s magazine. have you read one? it would help you to know about some thoughts of women.”
“if you’re going to talk just non sense, then i need to leave as soon as possible.” liu zijian answered and stood up.
“wait! why are you so serious?”
liu zijian sat down again and leaned back.
“you’ve probably heard the situation to miller.”
“i’m guessing it’s not all.”
“my, my, little zi is really smart.” liu zilong continued to torment his brother.
after not getting anymore new reaction from him, he eventually got serious.
“i need 3 days for you to cover for me.”
“i think you should start explaining from the start.”
“like what miller told you, i was in that drug dealing meeting. the usual assistants were the assassins. everything happened so fast. their movement was quick. most of the people inside didn’t even have time to react and the next thing i knew they’re already dead.”
“why were you spared?”
“that’s exactly my question.”
liu zilong recalled that during the chaos that lasted for merely few minutes, his mask was torn off. and it was the reason he was spared. the moment the assassin saw his face, hesitation flashed on her eyes.
“you mean those assassins probably know you?”
“maybe not both but the one who would normally stab me, yes. i wasn’t stabbed or wounded physically but i was given a drug. it was the type that would slowdown the functions the organs of your body and you will resemble a corpse for a certain amount of time. besides, she also coated me with somebody’s blood that’s why miller almost passed out when he first came inside. but when he moved me, he saw a simple note written in blood that i’m not dead.”
“i’m not sure if i could treat it a good thing or bad in the long run. that’s why i need to know who were they.” liu zilong continued.
“why do i need to cover you?”
“you’ll have meeting with the police. i used the identity of your assistant so as a boss, you’ll finalize everything.”
liu zijian lips that were firmly pressed twitched several times.
seeing his brother’s reaction liu zilong smiled and continued.
“i agreed to be an undercover for them since i fit as a convincing ‘investor and buyer’. if we plan to invest in this country, don’t you think it would be better to have a good relationship with the government?”
liu zijian massaged his temple. his brother’s move was just too bold.
“that move was dangerous.”
“it was, but i’m safe. maybe the killer fell in love with me after she saw my face and decided to spare me, don’t you think?”
“so it’s a woman you’re looking for.”
“your big brother just want to express my gratitude. i’m a gentleman after all.”
“how could you be so sure that within three days you’ll find her?”
“i’m not.”
liu zijian glared at him.
“what about the people of those killed ‘leaders?’”
“they’re like headless chicken after the incident. the police might have been wrapping things up by now. if not tonight, tomorrow you’ll have a meeting with them.”
“you planned this well… you really want to avoid those meetings and do what you want to do. why do you have to elaborate it further?”
“so you’ll understand the reason behind my action and not just accuse me of escaping…”
liu zijian exhaled deeply releasing his resignation.
“those people who did the killings, they’re not undercover, too?”
“no. i’m sure of it. someone must have hired them to eliminate those people dealing with drugs. it was too well planned.”
“you’re really lucky.”
liu zilong chuckled before speaking.
“you don’t really believe that she fell for my charm?”
“if really she did, then expect that assassin to be already dead.” liu zijian answered and stood up.
he has to call han meixiu and infrom her that he arrived safely. remembering her expression when he left, his heart twinged a little.
he almost wanted to bring her with him.
