To Love You Again - zChapter 744

Sir Majid looked at the scenery in front of him. He watched as the few children were called by their guardians.

“You are right. Even though you gave me a big tip, it is still not enough to trust you.”

“But you came here because you discovered that the information I gave to you is the truth,” Xiong Zhi calmly replied. “Trust can come later, once I prove myself.”

There was a short silence between them.

Cool, refreshing air passed by, ruffling both of their hair.

One old and one young on the bench.

It was an image of an elder accompanied by a youth, but the actual situation was far, far different.

“What do you want?” Sir Majid broke the silence. His voice was cold. “Giving me that information as a gift, what do you intend to do?”

On that day, Sir Majid opened the ‘gift’ and found the hundred-fifty million comb of the Islamic Princess. But what caught his eyes was the flashdrive.

It contained the information of the spies in his organization.

He did not believe it at first, because the information was too detailed beyond belief. The names of the spies, who they were in contact with, their goals, and the reports they tracked down were all in the flash drive. It was so detailed that it seemed as if it was Xiong Zhi herself who planted those spies.

However, Sir Majid could not just let this slip by, so he checked the information thoroughly.

Xiong Zhi did not answer him directly. She continued to nonchalantly look at the surroundings and said instead, “The rat you found is so big that you have to purge your whole house to rid yourself of it. Sir Majid, how do you feel when you learned that someone dared to take over your turf under your nose? It is very infuriating, isn’t it?” Her voice was peaceful and cool, but the words were not.

Sir Majid’s face darkened.

Just remembering the past chaotic days he spent after killing those traitors with his own hands made him both distressed and angry.

The big fat rat was his second-in-command who had won his trust. This traitor and the men on cahoots with him were planning to take over his organization once the fight with the legendary families was over! If Sir Majid had not found the traitor before they took over his turf completely, he would have lost his organization and his life.

Just thinking about it…

Sir Majid leaked murderous intent.

Xiong Zhi finally glanced at the elder. “Sir Majid, you are throwing your anger at the wrong person. Now that you have overcome a huge adversity because of me, I believe it is now time to avenge your grievances with the person who played you like a fool.”

Sir Majid controlled his emotions. He clenched his fists.

“Young woman, I know what you are doing. You want me to face Ming Zhi Yi’s people in the underworld, while he is facing the legendary families at the front. But you seem to be forgetting something.” The elder’s eyes blazed. “I want to destroy Ming Zhi Yi and his people to make them pay. However, that man is too difficult to deal with. He has many allies in the underworld. Even if I keep him busy below while he fights above, his connections can still bring him people from the underworld to support him to fight at the front. I can only buy time for you.”

“Are you perhaps talking about the Abromich family and the other underground kings who are in alliance with Ming Zhi Yi?”

Sir Majid raised his brows. He glanced at the young woman in surprise.

Unexpectedly, she was quite knowledgeable.

Well, what could he expect from the person who ‘gifted’ him the information about Ming Zhi Yi’s spies? This woman undoubtedly had a high-ranking spy amidst Ming Zhi Yi’s people.

Even though he wondered how she managed to plant a spy under Ming Zhi Yi’s nose, he did not ask about it. After all, no one was a fool to display his cards to someone else.

Xiong Zhi continued. “If that is your worry, then you are pointlessly worrying. There are others who will keep them busy for a while.”

‘So she also knows about the investigation that is being hidden by the international alliance.’

Thinking of this, Sir Majid shook his head. “The investigation will not keep the Abromich family’s hands tied for a long time. They will be able to easily get away from it after a period of time.”

Xiong Zhi countered. “I am not only talking about the ambassadors and international police’s investigations.” She slyly glanced at him with amusement. “It appears that Sir Majid still does not know. There is already another party who will keep them busy.”

Sir Majid was stunned. “What? Who?”

Xiong Zhi smiled. “You will hear from them soon. However, what I want to know is Sir Majid’s answer. Are you letting Ming Zhi Yi treat you like a fool and have him get away with it? If you plan to do so, then I will be very disappointed. I might have judged you wrong.”

“Young lady, do not needlessly provoke me. I am not someone who will just stand by when wronged. I will not overlook Ming Zhi Yi’s actions so easily.”

He did not become an underworld king for nothing.

Like a devil’s whisper, Xiong Zhi muttered. “Then you should also give him a blow in return.”

“….” Sir Majid’s eyes narrowed. “Is this the young heiress’ only condition, the payment you want from me?”

“Yes,” she straightforwardly confirmed. “If possible, I want Sir Majid to give his all in this fight. In the first place, it is something you have to inevitably do to protect your interests from Ming Zhi Yi. Or so I thought, before. Now… I am starting to doubt if you are willing to risk your organization for this fight, since you seem unsure whether we can really take Ming Zhi Yi head on together.”

Sir Majid fell silent.

What this young Xiong heiress said was the truth.

He was very angry that he wanted to kill Ming Zhi Yi at this very moment. However, he was also a rational man. He did not want to lead his group on a suicide mission with very low chance of success against Ming Zhi Yi’s faction.

Sir Majid smiled bitterly. Even though his life and his whole hard work were almost lost to Ming Zhi Yi’s spies, he still hesitated about getting vengeance. If not for this young woman, he might really be gone after a year or two.

Still, at such an obvious disadvantage, he hesitated.

Xiong Zhi observed the elder’s expression and reaction. She shook her head.

“Sir Majid, I will not force you. However, I hope that you will think about it and make a wise decision. Once you hear the news from underground channels, please make your decision then.”

Xiong Zhi stood up. “All great rewards come with even greater risk. You, as an underground lord, should know that the clearest.”

The young woman left, leaving Sir Majid alone on the bench.

The wind passed, scattering falling leaves downwards.

A little while later, his bodyguard approached.

“Sir.”

Sir Majid roused from his stillness. He gave an order.

“Find out what is happening underground, especially the Abromich family’s state.”

“Yes, Sir.”
