Chapter 678: I'M SO STUPID
"They are in Saudi Arabia! Why the hell didn't they call us back?" Mu Lan was furious. She was so worried about them for nothing.
"They couldn't because your cell phone couldn't get signal where was no signal." Shintaro explained it to her.
Mu Lan agreed. "That makes sense. We will head back to Saudi Arabia once Liang Liang is all cured. I won't contact brother Feng right now. I can't let them know our hideout."
She looked at Juan, "That being said, I am still curious about the fact you talked about yesterday. It's about my father. He had an accident that then you guys too him away because he is your friend. I want to know how you guys became friends."
Juan asked back, "Do you remember the time when Saudi Arabia was in crisis because of a severe virus caused by Akram?"
Mu Lan instantly recalled. "Yes, my father who was a professor that time created a formula and invented a drug to cure the virus. Is it related to that?"
Juan replied, "You are right. To look for an antidote, you father made a great deal to look for it all around the world. Soon, he found a way to enter the Bermuda Triangle."
Mu Lan's eyes grew rounder. "Don't tell me, the antidote he got was the elixir?"
"Yes indeed. It was the only cure for uncurable virus." Juan agreed.
"And I think you didn't give it to him for free." Mu Lan guessed.
Mark smirked. "Of course, we didn't. So, you father made a deal with us. He had to give us something precious in exchange of one elixir flower."
"What was it?" Mu Lan asked. She was unknowingly holding her breath.
"You." Mark answered.
"Me?" Mu Lan almost fell from the chair.
Juan smiled. "Yes. You were still in your mother's womb and your workaholic father didn't know if it was a boy or a girl. I remember he said, 'I don't know if my first born will be a son or a daughter, but nothing is more precious of me than my own child. I wish that you will give my child fatherly love when you take my first born away.' He really loved you."
Mu Lan's heart ached.
He continued, "After the people of Saudi Arabia survived, he went bac to China and saw you in your mother's embrace. Only he knew how happy he was. He was so obsessed with you that he even said that he would give us the second child and wanted to keep you with him. This must be the first time he wanted to break his promise."
Mu Lan asked curiously, "What happened next?"
"Certainly, we didn't agree. He was rather upset. Still he wanted another chance and impregnate your mother two years later. Alas! He couldn't meet his son Jonah, before that he met the accident." Carlo shook his head. He was feeling better than before.
Now Mu Lan understood the whole truth behind her joining The Cobra. "So that's why you guys took me in."
Juan answered, "We had to because you had elixir in your blood. Truthfully, we have these two reasons to take you in."
Mu Lan asked, "Where is he now?"
Juan's eyes glinted, "Where we have our treasures."
"What!" Mu Lan stood up. She looked at the men around her who weren't surprised at all. "Are you telling me that I was there all the time and played my heart's content but I never noticed that my father was there?"
"There are many hidden rooms there. You don't know every one of them." Romano gave her a heavy pat on her back.
Mu Lan moved forward because of his action and covered her head while sitting on the chair once again. "I'm so stupid."
"It happens." Pedro rubbed her head.
After breakfast, Mu Lan cook a bowl of porridge into Mu Liang's room. She placed it on the table and sat on the chair to wait for him to wake up.
Soon Mu Liang woke up from his slumber. His back was throbbing in pain. However, the moment his eyes landed on sparkling transparent black eyes, his pain was forgotten.
He immediately sat up on the bed. He stretched out his hand and said, "Lan, are you okay?"
Mu Lan lightly pounced on him knowing that he was still wounded. She replied, "Yeah, I'm okay." She sighed contently. She further entered into his embrace. "I missed you so much."
Mu Liang only hugged her tightly. He didn't say anything else. His body was shaking lightly in excitement.
When they parted from each other, both of them looked at each other's face.
"You became skinny." Mu Liang commented.
"You became pale. You suffered more because of the poison."
"I'm not the one who was kicked and dragged by hair." Mu Liang rubbed her stomach. "Does it hurt?"
"Not anymore." She smiled. She missed his caring words. Suddenly she gasped. "What are you doing?"
"Let me check." Mu Liang pulled her shirt up to check her stomach.
As she was only wearing undergarments under the long shirt, she felt embarrassed. She quickly dropped her shirt and said, "I told you there is nothing to watch- mmf!"
Her mouth was covered with an intense kiss. Mu Lan trembled. It had been so long that they didn't kiss like that. She couldn't help but encircle her arms around his neck. She moved more closer as her tongue moved with each other.
Because of sudden intimacy, the temperature of the room rose gradually. Sounds of lips locking, their sighs and moans filled the whole room.
Mu Lan's face turned red as she had a hard time to breathe. Mu Liang noticed that in excitement, she forgot to inhale oxygen and was about to lose her conscience, he reluctantly let her lips go. A strand of saliva was joined in both of their tongues. He lovingly wiped her droplet of tear.
They looked at each other's eyes and their faces came together again. After the long kiss, they kept pecking each other's lips lightly. They totally forgot the world around them.
