Savage Queen’s Secret - Chapter 155
Lying down in a consecutive line with their hands folded back and kept near their head as a pillow, they stared the stars twinkling prettily up in the sky next to the half moon.
It was as if their life was having a great time at the moment that they forgot everything and with their drunk eyes, silently stared at the sky.
In a pair they were lying down. Caixia next to Shiwei, Aili next to Alex and Jully barely controlling her temper next to the playful Daoming, who kept staring her.
“What do you think will happen to our life?” a question out of nowhere, was asked by Caixia, who was lying in between Jully and Shiwei.
They both glanced at her with their brows creased because for some reason her question was making them feel as if soon she will leave them and go somewhere far away.
“Why are you muttering such weird words?” he looked a bit sad but managing his expression well to keep his cool.
Weird? Nah! I have this gut feeling that soon this peace will be obstructed from my life and not just mine but those, who knows me, too! She smiled like a summer butterfly which was about to fly somewhere far, and then she become silent, staring the sky until she had the chance, too.
Getting no reply from her, he let out a sigh, “Only good things will happen and if not then I will make it good by my own efforts”.
“Tsk! Such cheesy dialogues, don’t use it on me and just be clingy as you have learnt to be nowadays,” she giggled looking up and peeking at him from time to time.
“So, who was your master, who taught you to be an assassin,” Shiwei asked, folding his hand near his chest and letting his head lie on the bare ground.
Caixia glanced at him, “The previous chief of the top assassin group with no children of his own, saved me from the slave market and made me who I am. He was accepting me to live a normal life but I admired him for having a life he wanted, so become who I am, right now”.
She had a gleam of brightness on her face as she talked about it while remembering her master, who passed away few years ago.
“Jully was brought from orphanage by him just like he did to me and we both shared a same thought of giving her a normal life but I guess I failed to do some,” said Caixia, her eyes looking down.
Jully looked at her and then hugged her hand while nuzzling her head on it, “Its ok, I am the most normal when I am with you”.
Although the atmosphere was getting more emotional, Daoming prevented it from getting further emotional, “Its ok, your habit to beat people without hearing their explanation and throwing your shoes without rechecking whom will it hurt, is all normal”.
Jully frowned whereas Caixia sat back, looking at Daoming with a funny face, “Did she go on doing such absurd thing? I was yet to know!”.
Such an excitement on her face, Daoming sat back, too, with a face full of excitement, “Yes, she did all those things when she was with me”.
“Whom did she beat?”.
“Who else? It can only be me but I have to say that the shoe flew away to others head when I dodged it and after ward she ran away,” Daoming with a big grin said and they both ended up laughing out loud.
Jully grabbed his ear tightly after sitting back, “You, you.. I will..”.
Bam! That sudden sound got them startled but before they could do something and realize what was going on, they found themselves surrounded by gases which was maybe not a poisonous gas but can induce their sleeping glands.
Caixia quickly hid her nose and mouth with her palm tightly before inhaling the gas whereas it was the same with Shiwei but he looked a bit sleepy maybe because he inhaled a bit of it during the process of covering his mouth.
Due to the gas, it was hard to see anything. One hand on mouth while other outstretched to feel what was ahead of them and while struggling she got out of the room.
She remembered that gas perfectly, it was the same which was used when Caron needed to kidnap her, so since she couldn’t see anything inside the room, she thought it would be better to get out and stop the perpetrator before they get their hands on Aili.
She got out of the room and not just her but Shiwei, Daoming and Alex, too but Jully and Aili were nowhere to be seen outside so they might be still inside.
Wang Shiwei coughed and it was the same for others but what was weird was that there was no one outside so the perpetrators must be inside?
Alex after checking outside again thought of getting inside. Since he couldn’t get a hold of Aili inside the hall, he stepped out thinking that she might be out but now his anxiousness was on par with his tensed expression.
Caixia stopped him from stepping in but like a mad bull, he pushed her, “Are you mad? I need to save her… they are after her!” he almost screamed, his face red and breath getting heavier which was making him more sleepy.
“Fool! Get a grip of yourself and tell me, is there another exit connected to this hall? If so, then they will definitely use it rather then coming out from here,” she shouted at Alex but while making sure that she doesn’t inhale even a little bit of sleeping drug since she still needed to be awake to save Aili and Jully.
Alex swallowed, he was completely shaken by what just happened but what Caixia said was also true and can’t be taken lightly so he gave it a thought.
Amusingly when you need to think quickly your mind will go blank due to anxiousness and that’s what happened to him. Those eyes filled with hope at him yet his memory was toying with him, he banged his hand on the wall and winced, “Just in the completely opposite side, there is a tunnel underground whose door is locked. It is connected from inside the room for emergency escape”.
Caixia nodded. Although the blue print of what he said so quickly was not understandable but at least she could give it a try.
She quickly looked at Shiwei but seeing him a bit drowsy, she glanced at Daoming and nodded.
They both ran but in different direction to reach where Alex have told them just in case those kidnappers have took another path.
Shiwei and Alex didn’t stayed still. While Alex alarmed the emergency alarm to shoot any strangers seen nearby, Shiwei followed Caixia.
It was really simple to understand who was the one to kidnapped Aili and for that Caixia berated herself since even after knowing it, she couldn’t stop what have happened just now.
Her heart was throbbing loudly with guilt burdening over.
Should I had let them know who was the real under world Queen? If I had did that then will these things wouldn’t had happened to Aili? What about Jully? Is she alright? Her mind was filled with many questions she can’t even think of the answers properly.
Heaving while running, she reached the other side of the wall but where was the door that he talked about. Her mind becoming blank and at some point she thought of giving up but that was not an option and she have to run again.
“Oh, my! I has been waiting for you for so long but it took you ages to come here”. A voice came from the roof of the ancestral hall and she looked up.
That voice was familiar but because of the cloak she couldn’t see who that person was. Recalling and recalling the familiar voice she remembered because of that brown curly hair, “Lee Shin!”.
Lee Shin was siting on the rail of the roof. A slight push from behind could take her to the hell.
She didn’t replied quickly when Caixia called her name and then chuckled, “Who knows who I am! But Caixia, it’s the end for you”.
Ignoring her, Caixia looked at the helicopters which was at the great height and through the rope ladder, a man in a cloak was getting up on it while carrying a big bag which certainly had Aili in it.
The other helicopters were already going away while the last one was still there maybe waiting for Lee Shin. Caixia didn’t thought much and ran toward the wall to climb it and get on the roof but fall down when Lee Shin shot at her with her gun.
It was fortunate that the bullet just passed by her arm after slightly touching it and also fortunate that Shiwei become a pillow for Caixia to fall on since he was, too, drowsy to catch her falling from even a little height.
Lee Shin panicked seeing Shiwei there and stood up on the roof, the gun still in her hand, “No, I am not Lee Shin”. She shook her head crazily.
