No Where To Run: Trapped With My Archenemy

Chapter 96 - The Girl's Party



UNEDITED: 

Just as Han Ze Min's car drove past Zhi Lan in the parking lot of Skyline condo, another one abruptly stopped in front of her, and a masked woman got down. 

"Oh, finally!!!" Zhi Lan heavily sighed as she looked at Cai Hong, who dressed up to avoid paparazzi. 

Removing her sunglasses in hurried motions, she almost dragged Zhi Lan behind one of the concrete columns in the parking lot.

"What are you-" Even before Zhi Lan could ask something, Cai Hong silenced her with a bunch of questions,

"Was that Han Ze Min? Why is he here? Did he come here to ask about me?" Cai Hong inquired while looking in the direction where Han Ze Min's car went.

"Hey, hey, cool down. He lives here," Zhi Lan tried to calm down her friend who started panicking at the mere glimpse of a police officer. Though Cai Hong pretended unaffected during the interrogation, she was indeed frightened by Han Ze Min's wrath. 

"Here?" Cai Hong asked and glanced around the parking lot. Skyline apartments were home to the elites in the imperial city and she couldn't help but wonder why Han Ze Min who was rich enough to buy a hundred such skyline penthouses chose to live here, like a nouveau riche. 

"Hmm... opposite to Xie Na's penthouse" Zhi Lan calmly informed and took a step away from the column, intending to walk away from the parking lot. 

"What? I thought he lives in the Han family's mansion...when did he move out?" Cai Hong asked while following her friend to the elevator, hiding herself in the shadows of columns and cars as if she was on some undercover mission. 

"He moved out last year, I guess... Let's go up, otherwise, we will be late." Zhi Lan reminded as she pressed the top floor button on the elevator.

"Do you think this is going to be safe? Xie Na and Han Ze Min are neighbours, and we are doing something illegal right under his nose." As soon as the elevator went upwards, Cai Hong began to worry about unnecessary things. 

Watching such a reaction from Cai Hong, who always acted as the momma bear of their friend circle, someone who always taken care of others, Zhi Lan couldn't help but scold her friend, who was out of her mind,

"Are you kidding me, Cai Hong? Did you forget your brain at home or what?" Zhi Lan didn't even control her mouth as she spoke to the other. She couldn't believe Cai Hong would stoop down to this pathetic level under fear.

"I'm just worried...what if something happens to me..." Cai Hong said while biting her nails in nervousness.

"Didn't Xie Na tell us that we can rely on her for things like this? She got a team to handle this without gathering any police attention. So please don't worry. She will manage it." Zhi Lan once again reassured Cai Hong as the elevator hit the top floor of the building. 

"Hmm... I hope she agrees to do it." Zhi Lan added as she followed 

"Were you sleeping?"

"Hmmm... I barely slept." 

"That can be seen on your face," 

"Who was it?" 

"One of my clients.." 

"You are sleeping with your clients?" 

"What can I do if they are willing to sleep with me? Coffee?" 

"Well, at least one of us is getting laid. Good for you." 

"So tell me, what help do you want from me?" 

"I want you to look for someone on run after committing a crime." 

"Who?" 

"I don't know his name." 

"Photograph?" 

"Nope." 

"It's the culprit who murdered a girl on new years eve." 

"I thought police department...Lanlan's boyfriend is investigating the case?" 

"Yes, but can you ask your people to search him and if you can...catch him before the police?" 

"What's it, Cai Hong? What did you do this time?" 

"Why...why are you doubting me? Do you also think that I killed that b*tch?"

"So, that's what happened. Did captain Wan summon you to interrogate?"

"Yes."

"Well, if you haven't done anything wrong, you shouldn't waver before anyone."

"I assume that you did something?"

"Police have some footage of me bullying that girl."

"Don't you have a little bit of common sense? You are a celebrity and-"

"It just happened, if the police don't find the murderer, they will sue me instead,"

"Who told you that rubbish? Police just can't sue anyone without any evidence."

"They have enough evidence to sue me. That's why I'm here."

"Just, tell me, what should I do? appear for you in the court or look for the real culprit?"

"Well, essentially it is the same thing, isn't it?"

"Nope, one is legal, and the other is illegal and expensive."

"You really keep your personal life away from your profession, don't you?"

"Of, course."

"Xie Na, where are you? Oh, Hi..."

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything."

"No, you are not. Are you leaving, miss Chun? Stay for breakfast."

"No, no. It's okay...you are having guests."

"They are about to leave."

"Yes, please stay for the breakfast."

"Hmm, thanks."

"Don't worry. I will take care of it, if it's in the court or not, I will make sure ..."

"Don't you think Xie Na's taste is a bit-"

"Don't you dare to judge her for sexual orientation?"

"Hey no...I'm not...I'm totally fine with my best friend being a lesbian...I was talking about that woman, doesn't she have a husband?"

"Yes, also a million-dollar company shares which she is supposed to receive as alimony. She found her husband cheating with his private secretary, and Xie Na's firm is handling the divorce settlement."

"And she is completely fine with sleeping with her client?"

"Didn't you hear what she said?"

"To be very honest, I thought she was not interested in dating and marriage or anything that requires commitment."

"Actually, she wasn't like this...she went through a huge loss."

"Who died?"

"Nobody died. She just lost a deal, and after that, her entire personality drastically changed."

"It's just a deal..."

"Nope...It wasn't just a deal...It was a girl..."

"Hmm...a courtesan girl...Xie Na tried to bring her home, but she just ran away with a schoolboy."

ust as Han Ze Min's car drove past Zhi Lan in the parking lot of Skyline condo, another one abruptly stopped in front of her, and a masked woman got down.
