No Where To Run: Trapped With My Archenemy

Chapter 92 - Keep Calm, Enjoy The Drama



UNEDITED- PLEASE WAIT SOME TIME

"Something might have happened to the perpetrator's family…or to someone he loved and cherished more than anything else in this world…. That's his reason." 

Though Wan Yi Jun spoke as if he was talking about the perpetrator of the murder, nobody knew that whatever he said was meant to Han Ze Min, too. 

Just like Shu Li Li's case, Han Ze Min's motive to kill his cousin would be personal vengeance- to avenge the death of his first love. 

If it wasn't for their family, he would have killed Wan Yi Jun long ago,

"You mean the perpetrator murdered Shu Lili and created havoc in the imperial city, just because he lost someone he loved?" Lao Yating added in a doubtful voice. As he thought more about it, his face got crooked as if heard something weird and looked around to check whether everyone think the same.

"Well. For some people, family is all it matters, and they will do anything...even if it is a murder." Ming Yue added so casually, without even a slight change in her face, 

"I would do the same if I ever meet those people who destroyed my family..." Her sharp eyes narrowed on the mere thought avenging her parent's death,

"But there is a judicial system in this country, there is a law and order system...If everyone decides to take the weapon and avenge their loss," Lao Yating argued to the woman, who sounded as if she was in support of violence.

"What if you lost his trust in the judiciary and the so-called law and order system? Someone who had no other option, no one to help him bring the justice his family deserves, you cannot simply blame him if you have a heart."  Ming Yue didn't hold back as she ran her mouth to present her side like an experienced lawyer, without even caring about others' reactions to her.

"You can't just talk like that, miss Ming. From a humane and civilized perspective-" Lao Yating, who got charged by Ming Yue's words, was about to light up another heated debate when Bing Wen meddled in between and tried to stop them,

"Guys, guys...stop...We are not discussing justice and injustice. We are looking for a culprit." He tried to hammer down some senses two hot-headed individuals who stared at each other like two bulls, ready to fight.

"Yes, we need to find the culprit before we start talking about justice and injustice," Holding, Lao Yating's shoulder, Fei Yan also tried to ease the heated air in the room.

It was the second time Lao Yating and Ming Yue had engrossed in a fierce debate, and everyone feared that they had already been torn apart from each other as if they could never have a peaceful conversation in the future.

"Yaa, you just made your best two accomplices hate each other because of your stupid theories." Han Ze Min, who had been silently enjoying the conflicted expression on Wan Yi Jun, commented in a barely audible voice, only to annoy his cousin more.

"These are mere guesses." Han Ze Min spoke as if he was the mediator of the debate and tried his best to save themselves for another awkward moment.

"We still don't have any evidence to prove our nearly hysterical hypothesis are actually true. So there is no point in arguing with each other, got it Yating and Yue?"

Hearing, Han Ze Min's explanation, 

"Let's go there..." 

The basement where Hu Geng Xin lived and Gui Xiang."

"Really? We are going all the way to Gui Xiang?"

"Aren't you the one who said that we lacked evidence?"

"Keep your bags packed, I will get the permission."

"If everything is settled then, is it okay if I serve the dinner?"

"Let me help you,"

"Me too, sis."

"It was great meeting you, miss Ming."

"Yes, I feel the same."

"Will see you later."

"Give me your contact number?"

"I have your card."

"Yep, but I don't have your number."

"I don't have a phone,"

"I will get you one."

"You could have done it earlier."

"Where did you-"

"Master gave it to me,"

"Hmmm."

"I will call you."

"Please don't."

"I told you I have no interest to work with you,"

"We can talk about other things,"

"Do you really got free time to talk? No wonder your investigation is lagging,"

"Has anyone said that you are too fiesty?"

"Everyone I have met."

"See you then,"

"So master will be gone for at least a week?"

"I'm sorry, but will you be alright after what happened here? "

"We had guests, and nothing happened."

"But you will be alone here, should I ask someone to stay here with you, for your protection?"

"Are you kidding me, master?  You put security systems all over this place, just for my sake. Why do I need more protection? I will be alright."

"I will go and stay with my old landlord until you return, is that fine?"

"I'm sorry, I don't have many acquaintances in this city...otherwise- wait a minute, let me ask my friend if he could let you-"

"What are you doing master, I'm perfectly fine with staying here alone. Didn't I tell you that I know how to fight?"

"Yeah, but..."

"Don't worry, I know how to take care of me..."

"Mmmm...how's your wound? Shouldn't we disinfect and bandage it?"

"It's already late, please go to sleep."

"Nope, you should take better care of yourself."

"I will leave my car, here, so that people might think that I'm home."

"

"Even though Miss Feng could entirely confirm the man from the identity proof, once we showed her the Hu Geng Xin's recent photograph from the agency, she was able to recognize him."

"He came to the imperial city and must have done some random jobs until he landed up in that agency."

"I don't think he just landed up with that agency. He must have followed Shu Li Li all the way to the imperial city. Otherwise, why would he stay next to her apartment and took a job in the same building? I swear there is something wrong with him."

"Then, go out with me," Han Ze Min's casual proposal resonated in the room, ringing a bunch of alarming bells on Ming Yue's on one corner of her mind and creating utter confusion on another corner.

Her dubious eyes carefully scanned the grinning man who stood before her. Even when they were children, Han Ze Min was second to none in terms of good looks and personality. He had always been a jovial person, loved by everyone. However, the person who stood before her was someone else. 

It didn't even take a moment for him to realize what exactly she meant.

"What? Did he also-" His voice cracked when he thought about Wan Yi Jun asking out Ming Yue. Since she had only given a silent reply to his previous question about sleeping with Wan Yi Jun, his mind wandered among the endless possibilities.

"I have no plan to go out with anyone." Ming Yue's resilient words pulled him back into reality, and even before he knew it, Han Ze Min uttered those words he feared to say all these years,

"I like you."

Han Ze Min gaped at her gorgeous face devoid of endearing emotions for a long minute. There wasn't even a single change in her face as he expected. Whenever he goes out, women always show interest in him, but it was the first time he had seen someone immune to his charms. "Ming Yue, I said I like you," 

"I like me too."

"...." 

To be very honest, Han Ze Min didn't know how would respond to such an answer. He was being honest, but with one single statement Ming Yue

"Seriously? You think that joke would work on me?'

"You are the young master of the Han family, soon to be CEO of the HK group. You will get more eligible women-"

"I said go out with me, not to marry me."

"Huh?"

"You want me to pretend as your girlfriend?"

"Exactly. Don't worry, I will pay for your services...both physical and emotional."

"Do you know how offensive you just sounded right now?"

"No thanks."

"I'm not asking you to sleep with me...just come over to make others believe that we are a legitimate couple. We won't have any physical relationship unless you are okay with it?" 

"And how long do I have to pretend like that?"

"Just until, Wan Yi Jun gets married."

"Why is that so?"

"He is the eldest among us. If I get a girlfriend, our family will definitely pester him to get married or get engaged to his girlfriend whom you mentioned earlier."

"You don't know our family's rules." 

"You are a police officer, are you not brave enough to say break the stupid rules and regulations set by your highly conservative family?" 

"I want to...but there is something that stopping us from doing so..." 

Me and Yi Jun are the only male heirs left in our family. If we don't get married or have a child, the centuries-old legacy of our family will end with us."

"So you want me to pretend as your girlfriend until you find an eligible woman as your girlfriend or wife, maybe?"

"Yes. I will inform my family that we broke up and pretended to be heartbroken for a while." 

"Do you believe me if I say that I don't want to be part of my family anymore?"
