You Are My Colour Palette - Chapter 156 Confrontation

“Always attack. Even in defense, attack. The attacking arm possesses the

initiative and thus commands the action. To attack makes men brave; to defend

makes them timorous.”

Steven Pressfield, The Virtues of War: A Novel of Alexander the Great

Mu Fan’s tries to open his eyes even though he felt groggy, he shakes his head to make out the blurry vision of the person in front of him. His hands and legs are tied to a chair so that he wouldn’t run away.

“He is awake, my lady. What should I do?” the voice came from his right side. Since the voice is a bit loud, he assume the person is next to him. Then a female voice spoke out from the opposite of him ” Let him be till he is fully awake. ”

Mu Fan looks up and tries to resist the ropes on him ” Who are you? ” He couldn’t make out the face of the woman because she was sitting in far away from the light. He started to wonder how did he end up in this position. He clearly remembered following Zhou Qin Yang to the car park, he daringly tried to approach her this time because she didn’t have the man with her from before this time.

Before he knew it, he was knocked out cold with a hit on the neck. He still could feel the pain lingering on the side of his neck. The woman lets out a cold laugh and leans forward which caused Mu Fan to be tense ” Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that? ”

Mu Fan eyes widens when he saw Zhou Qin Yang ” You ! What do you want with me? “. He is beginning to worry if he would get the money now that he is caught, he needs to pay his rental fee !
for visiting.

” Shouldn’t you ask that question yourself? ” Zhou Qin Yang crosses her leg and lean back with arms across her chest, enjoying his panic state. Mu Fan takes a deep breath ‘ I need to calm down ‘

” Fine, let’s not drag this any longer. My client wants you to stay away from Ahn Qiao Fu. ” he relaxes himself and finally gain his calmness, knowing he can’t escape and leans back to make himself comfortable from the ropes.

Few hours ago

Sinclair stood by the door since Zhou Qin Yang started working in the morning, all she did was typing on her keyboard and drawing a few things on her drawing tablet. Sometimes she would review documents Fu Hua brings into the office, he would often get weird stares from the people who comes in her office.

Sinclair did not mind the stares, he ignores them most of the time. No one dared to ask and Zhou Qin Yang did not say anything about it even Fu Hua assumes that maybe because Zhou Qin Yang is now an important woman to their president so she needs a bodyguard. As soon as he watched Fu Hua walks out, Zhou Qin Yang drops her pen on her table and tries to stretch her tense muscles from working all day

Sinclair tenses up when he saw Zhou Qin Yang’s eyes move to him, she smiles ” Sinclair, when you were in training, did they ever teach you how to get information out of people who refuses to talk?”

” They did when I was training in the underworld. ” Sinclair wonders why Zhou Qin Yang ask such a question. Did she perhaps try to interact with him again?

Zhou Qin Yang smile even wider as if she got some master plan in mind ” You want to put those training to test? ”

Sinclair thought for a few seconds then nods,at the given suggestion even though he was trained before but he had never tried it before because mostly his missions are to kill silently. He doesn’t mind doing a bit of practice.

Zhou Qin Yang then claps her hands together and her eyes light up ” Good. Don’t you want to get rid of that annoying pest ? I am sure you sensed him this morning as well. ”

” He was in the dark and he wasn’t trying to do anything yet. ” Sinclair is always ready to kill whenever Mu Fan wants to hurts Zhou Qin Yang. Now he is just alert because Mu Fan hasn’t counterattack yet.

Zhou Qin Yang sips her remaining tea in her cup and smirks” Let’s lure him out then ! I got a few unanswered question to ask. “
