Tang Ming picked up a booklet from the table, opened it to a page, "Look at this, this is a small old castle by the Aegean Sea in Greece, do you like it? Once this is all over, I’ll buy it for you."
Seo Fei took the booklet and saw a picture of a seaside old castle on it.
The azure sky, the blue sea, the white and blue castle... Everything before her eyes was as beautiful as a fairytale world.
"Tang Ming..." Seo Fei lifted her gaze from the booklet in her hand, "I... I’m not worthy of you being so good to !"
"Xiao Pei!" Tang Ming raised his finger to cup her face, "In my eyes, you’ll always be my queen; you were always ant to live in this castle, living like a queen."
His fingers lightly grazed her cheek, and he naturally leaned closer, his lips gently brushing against hers.
"No!" Seo Fei suddenly stepped back, escaping his embrace, "No, Tang Ming, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I can’t do it..."
She turned around and ran out with large strides.
She knew he liked her, and she wanted to try to get close to him, but she really couldn’t do it.
Over all these years, her heart had already been set on Leng Zimo, how could she easily forget him?!
Watching the closed study door, Tang Ming abruptly clenched his hand which was hanging in the air, slamming it down on the table.
"Why, why?!"
After all the hurt Leng Zimo did to her, she still couldn’t forget him?!
The door was gently knocked, and Zhang Xing’s voice ca through, "May I co in?"
Tang Ming took a breath, controlling his emotions, "Co in!"
Zhang Xing shut the door tightly, walked to his desk, "The call from above notified us to speed up progress."
"I know." Tang Ming sat back at his desk, "How’s the investigation I asked you to do going?"
"Recently, Leng Lin has been staying reclusive, making it hard to approach him, plus he lives in the Military District Courtyard, making it difficult for our people to get in." Zhang Xing looked sowhat troubled, "As for Song Yuh, ever since last ti, precautions have been strengthened. He basically stays at the base, and even when he occasionally steps out, he’s heavily protected."
Tang Ming stood up, "Keep an eye on Song Yuh to see if any opportunities arise. As for Leng Lin, I’ll think of a way."
"Alright." Zhang Xing agreed and walked out of the study.
Tang Ming followed him out and stopped at the door opposite Seo Fei’s. After hesitating for a mont, he gently pushed the door open.
Inside, the room was empty, and Seo Fei wasn’t there.
"Xiao Pei?!"
He strode in, but no one responded.
He walked over to knock on the bathroom door, but there was no one inside. He went downstairs, and no one was there either.
Tang Ming turned and rushed into the garage, noticing that one of the cars was indeed missing.
"Damn it!"
Swearing under his breath, he quickly fetched a car key from the living room and drove another car out of the garage, speeding out of the neighborhood.
...
...
Emperor View Building.
Leng Zimo closed the laptop in front of him and stood up from the main seat, "eting dismissed!"
Holding the laptop, he walked out of the eting room. He glanced at his watch, it was almost half-past two in the afternoon, a bit longer and he’d need to pick up Luo Jun from school.
Returning to his office, he turned to close the door and placed his laptop on the desk. Noticing the chair turned away from the desk, he raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
The high-backed chair slowly spun around, revealing a hand holding a folder that gradually lowered to reveal Luo Xiaoqian’s smiling face.
