Dear Young Master Spare Me Please? - 269 Connection

after they left the fourth room, old huang changed the registered palm with fingerprints. since there’s only one set that should be registered, from the moment she changed it, old huang could no longer access the five rooms.

only zhang huiling could open them again.

the two quickly visit the fifth room using the newly changed access, zhang huiling’s palm. but the two didn’t stay long. zhang huiling was already distracted and couldn’t appreciate the small room.

“you can visit this place anytime. you have the access anyway.” old huang said, seeing the uninterested person beside her. sooner or later, zhang huiling would come and access this room.

on their way back to the small cabin, both were immersed in their own thoughts.

old huang words were still echoing in her mind. they’re being played over and over again.

even after the old huang prepared a simple dinner, zhang huiling who was outside didn’t come in. the old woman knew she needed some time to accept what she told her. but the thing was, that wasn’t the only issue she wanted to tell the current leader.

there was something else but she didn’t know how to start.

she wanted to come clean before leaving this world. unlike her predecessor,  she wanted to tell everything to zhang huiling, including her manipulation that affected her.

when zhang huiling came in, the foods were already cold.

“i’ll reheat them.” old huang said and picked up the few dishes.

“i won’t eat. i plan to leave as soon as possible.” zhang huiling answered and picked up her things, attached them to her body one at a time while the old woman looked at her with complicated expressions.

old huang placed the dishes back on the table. “you don’t have any problems with opposition now?”

“no. i already cleaned the organization up. their leader has been killed by me. unless someone as powerful as wang jinyi appear, then i really need to worry again. but there’s none. i even have a hard time looking for a potential person to train.” zhang huiling answered while focusing on what she was doing, oblivious about the reaction of the old woman.

“you,..finally killed her..?”

“yeah. you’ll be surprised who was hiding her from me.” zhang huiling’s voice started to turn sour as she recalled the man.

“..who was it?” old huang asked as she tried to control her voice and emotions.

“h, that favorite of yours who betrayed you.” and betrayed me, too.. zhang huiling’s fists tightened. it’s not really easy to just forgive and forget things.

clang!

the sudden sound of a dish breaking made zhang huiling turned and looked at the old woman who was trying to pick up the pieces of the broken dish on the floor.

“you’re surprised, too?” she sneered and started to wear her coat and walked out. “i’ll be off.”

but before she could reach the door, a shot was fired merely few centimeters from her head. it was a warning shot. if she would move one step further, she knew the old woman would really shoot her. but why?

zhang huiling slowly turned around. “what’s that for?” she asked secretly preparing for a counter attack just in case the old woman turned crazy again!

“sit down.”

it was an order. just like when she was still undergoing a training facilitated by old huang. although zhang huiling could take down the older woman if she really wanted to, there was something in her eyes that made her listen.

zhang huilng could see the pain and conflicted feelings.

after sitting down, old huang placed the gun under the table and sat opposite zhang huiling.

“we are even.” old huang said in a faint voice.

“what do you mean even?”

“wang jinyi…she’s my daughter…”

it’s true that old huang knew about zhang huiling’s identity but she didn’t know anything related to the old fox. telling her outright that the woman she killed was her daughter, zhang huiling wanted to ask again if what she heard was indeed correct.

looking at the old woman, she knew she didn’t need to.

“since she’s your daughter why did you choose me over her?”

“because she’s lacking emotions. she wasn’t conceive traditionally. i wanted a successor but couldn’t trust easily. i decided to try conceiving using the help of science. from a young age she was trained to excel. she became a perfect weapon but not a perfect leader.”

“why did you say we’re even?”

“h, han yun xiang… he was one of the best people i have. normally, he would only stay for a certain period of time. but he’s too talented to be let go. that time, i lost three of them. i couldn’t let him return….not during that time. i only have h and d left..”

zhang huilng started to shake as her anger rose incrementally. “we’re even…?” she managed to say.

“you destroyed my family and i killed your daughter. it was indeed a good conclusion saying that we’re even… ha ha ha!” she gave the old woman an empty laugh. it sounded creepy as it was accompanied by a burning hatred gaze of the woman whose fists were tightly closed.

the apologetic face of old huang didn’t affect zhang huiling’s fury. not even when she saw the old woman opened and closed her mouth as if asking her to listen first.

“you used me! you tried to control h but he didn’t want. he betrayed you. you looked for me and ‘saved’ me. wasn’t it because you thought he would come back? but he didn’t. instead of using me as a bait you found another use of this naive woman. you trained me. you trained me to be your successor. feeding me with endless lies to fire up and do my best to reach the summit of what you call power. wasn’t it also your intention to use me to deal with your own daughter? you clearly ignite our rivalry. we’re even? no. old huang! you owe me so much! so much that even if i kill you, it’s not enough!”

zhang huiling stood up and walked towards the door. after opening, she looked back. “i will not let you use me, again. you think i don’t know that you’re planning to provoke me this much so i could kill you?”

“watch it old huang, watch how i will ruin your so called organization.”

after zhang huiling left, old huang stayed in the same position for more than an hour. her response, ‘i will.’ was never uttered.

if she said that her original target wasn’t really zhang huiling but their daughter han meixiu, would that woman still hold herself back of killing her?

at this time, liu zijian just arrived at home. after his flight was delayed he went to a meeting as something came up. he only made a short call to his wife saying not to worry and he has some good news.  find authorized novels in webnovel，faster updates, better experience，please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

the dinner was already prepared when he arrived and han meixiu was still attached to her own laptop while sitting on the sofa. she was listening to someone’s report and didn’t hear the opening and closing of doors.

liu zijian stopped at the door and enjoyed the scene of his busy wife. he was holding the things he bought for her and the twins.

normally, he didn’t have the habit of buying something during his trips, but when they were delayed, ye ming mentioned that ye long asked something and he needed to buy it.

he would normally ignore it and would just continue working while waiting but at that time, he also overheard a conversation where a woman was telling someone what she wanted to buy in a particular country. the voice was a bit loud and was subtly distracting him.

initially he didn’t want to pay attention but when he heard the word ‘i’m your wife, you have to buy me something in that country as a proof you really remember me during your travel! you usually do it when you were courting me, but now that we’re married…you’re not doing it anymore…’

with a quick call, he asked where his assistant went and eventually followed.

unfortunately, the moment he stepped inside the store, he didn’t know which one he would buy. the more he looked around the more he got confused. most of the things could easily be ordered online. what’s so special about buying them at the airport?

when he asked ye ming what ye long wanted to buy, it was a simple delicacy. it wasn’t something special as he could also easily asked someone to ship it directly to their residence from q country.

in the end, he chose what he thought han meixiu would like, boxes of chocolate infused with different alcoholic drinks. as for the twins, he chose a small stuffed toys that were similar to the costume outfit madam liu gave.

as he continued to observe han meixiu, he could imagine the box of chocolate beside her as she worked diligently. in any case, her alcohol tolerance was much better than him.

the moment a smile appeared was also the time han meixiu lifted her head and saw liu zijian standing not too far from her.

“jian! you’re back!!!”
