Dear Young Master Spare Me Please? - 261 Her Case
emoved.
her tracking chip was removed.
the sentence kept repeating in her head like a broken tape.
‘what does it mean?’
her actions of picking the piece of pork, stuffing it in her mouth and chewing afterwards became a repeated task as if she was a robot programmed to act like that.
her eyes weren’t even looking at the dish.
even after liu zilong removed the plate, and changed it to something else, han mingxia’s action didn’t stop.
liu zilong sighed. he stood up and held her wrist. “that’s enough. let’s go home.”
his voice was low and sounded like he’s appeasing her. although it was his purpose, liu zilong didn’t really know what the woman was feeling.
he only knew that what he said was a big blow to her.
liu zilong took the initiative to leave the restaurant. along the way home, the two didn’t talk.
liu zilong glanced at han mingxia from time to time but her eyes were just focused in front. he normally wanted to explain but seeing her like this, he knew it’s not yet the time.
the following day, liu zilong thought the woman might have recovered already. to his surprise, he saw her inside the training room. the room was located next to his own and he would normally pass it before going down to the living room or kitchen.
the woman never entered the training room for the past month. although he said she could freely use it, she never stepped inside, except today.
liu zilong stopped near the glass window and observed the woman.
han mingxia was constantly moving. the woman was either kicking or hitting the big black punching bag. she was covered with sweat but there was no sign of stopping.
liu zilong started to get worried. he quickly opened the door and went inside.
“mingxia!” he called out.
the woman barely stopped and looked at him with red eyes before she continued to punch.
liu zilong didn’t have a choice. he walked towards the woman and grasp her wrist. “that’s enough!”
it was the time he noticed her arms were actually shaking. “you! you didn’t sleep?!?!”
the woman didn’t answer but slowly leaned on him. eventually she collapsed.
‘f$#@!’ liu zilong cursed.

white.
everything was white.
han mingxia closed her eyes again and tried to remember things.
it seemed that there’s a hazy memory of her seeing her boss. he was saying something. after that, what happened?
the door opened and her boss came in. he wasn’t smiling softly like he usually did. his face was serious.
“first young master, i’m sorry. i..” han mingxia said and tried to get up.
“stay still. you’re body is weak.” liu zilong said and walked towards the bed. his hands were tucked neatly in his trouser’s pockets. “what were you thinking? abusing yourself that way?”
han mingxia didn’t answer. from the time she heard that her tracking chip was removed, her mind shut down. it was as if she was denying the fact. she was escaping from the reality of her situation.
“once you’re better we’ll talk again.” liu zilong continued after seeing han mingxia lowered her head. he wanted to scold her, but he didn’t want to add another chaotic thoughts on her mind. he just needed to make sure she wouldn’t do crazy things again.
when the door closed, han mingxia lifted her face and stared out the window not far from her own bed.
the tracking chip.
the tracking chip would be normally embedded inside their body. it would monitor their movement especially during their mission.
even if the member would be in an infinite contract, the chip would still be inside their body. this was to ensure that the member would be ‘serving’ the employer and would not betray the contract.
the chip would only be removed if the member died or kicked out. find authorized novels in webnovel,faster updates, better experience,please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
she didn’t die. then it meant, she was dismissed. those who were purposely removed would live in hiding. except for those who ‘retired’ and given new identity, no one could live well if they’re dismissed.
but why was she expelled?
this was the part she couldn’t understand and accept. she could only think about the last mission. did she fail? she clearly carried out her last role.
was it because there was an ‘accident’? was that enough to remove her?
she wanted to call to demand an answer but if she really would do so, it meant she’s asking for an instant death.
han mingxia tightly closed her eyes. remembering liu zilong’s words, it seemed that it was removed before she was sent to him.
then when she called to ask about red, she as already kicked out! but there was no one targeted her? she didn’t experience being hunted.
there must be really something she didn’t know that she must know.
han mingxia stared at the closed door. her boss said that after she’s better they would talk.
‘he must have something important to tell me that wasn’t on the contract i’ve read.’

liu zilong didn’t leave the medical facility of lcg. while he’s here and the patient he brought was given appropriate treatment, he decided to inspect the area.
he was also given a private room so he could take a rest.
holding a bottle of water as he leaned on the wall, he couldn’t help but think of the woman he hired.
did he make a mistake?
he had multiple reasons why he wanted to hire her. the first was to at least repay her from saving him back then. if she’s by his side, she wouldn’t encounter much dangerous situation compared to being in another mission.
second, he also wanted to have a rematch and learn from her moves.
third, since he’s planning to give miller a year to fix his personal life, he needed an assistant and bodyguard at the same time. she was a perfect candidate. she already saved him.
normally he wanted a one year contract at least. but when she was sent to him that night and found out her real identity, his initial interest doubled as well as his gratitude.
when he saw the contract, he was surprised. he asked some revision and clarification why he was given an infinite contract without any attachments.
han mingxia, also known as 92 was dismissed by black.com. in the recent mission, her mistake made their organization known to authorities. she endangered not only the people who were part of the mission but also the other members of the organization.
normally, she should be dead. if the organization followed the usual process, her corpse should be thrown near the place she was ambush by the authorities.
but instead, she was given first aid. she was able to continue her life.
if it would just be han mingxia alone, it would not take long before she would naively go back to black.com.
according to the leader, there should be ample time before they could ‘produce’ 92’s corpse. thus, she needed to hide. for at least a year.
since liu zilong wanted her service and he’s traveling most of the time, he was the perfect boss for han mingxia’s case.
there’s only one catch, they should always be together. liu zilong’s protection would at least cover han mingxia.
after finishing a bottle of water and throwing it into the trash bin, he went out of the room. it’s time to check that woman’s situation.
remembering her reaction after learning the removal of the tracking chip, he wondered.
‘why is she so attached to that organization?’

after two days, both liu zilong and han mingxia were inside the study.
the woman was sitting and hanging her head low. she looked like a criminal waiting for a final verdict.
liu zilong was lazily leaning on the wall and his arms were crossed on his chest. compared to the time he visited the woman, his facial reaction at the moment was mellow.
“i know you have reasons why you want to be in black.com but you have to remember.. you’re in a special situation.” his tone wasn’t angry nor cold. it was soft and lingering as if calming her but subtly scolding her as well.
“i’m sorry.” she answered. she really wanted to laugh. she was so naive. hearing the complex result of her error made her want to bury herself. she realized that she’s really a trouble maker.
liu zilong looked at the woman. “if you want to do something, tell me first. also, if you want to know about certain things, inform me. i am your employer, you’re my responsibility.”
“thank you.” she meekly answered without lifting her head up.
“you can start to prepare. we’ll leave tonight.” liu zilong said and moved towards the seat behind his working desk.
after nodding, han mingxia went out of the room.
when she arrived at her own room, she let herself slid down. she felt utterly defeated.
that’s right. she was kicked out, just like that.
han mingxia smiled bitterly as she stared at the ceiling.
