The dark sky laid the perfect background for the bright moon that hung up high above. Hui drove to his base to investigate further into today’s incident. As he parked the car in the compound, he saw Lei right outside walking towards him.
He got out and gave the keys to Lei and said, “Find whose jeep is this and get me all the details related to it. Also look into this license plate number and find me whose car is it. Hunt them down.” Hui handed a piece of paper with the mentioned license plate number.
“Yes Boss, I will work on it.”
As they walked into the building Hui stopped midway turned around and told him, “One more thing. Look into a person called Mei. Get me all the details you can get about her. Don’t leave out any details. Do you get me?”
“Boss, I don’t think I will be able to dig deeper with just one name.”
“Ah… That is right”
“We have no clue
Mei didn’t utter a word as she stood there staring a hole at Xue. Not knowing what to do Xue just pulled out an awkward smile before continuing with the phone call.Mei ignored it as she walked to the kitchen to grab a glass of water.“How is Mei?” asked Su Lin from the other end.“What do you think? You should have an idea?”“It was my mistake.”“You are always ready to apologize but also the first one to hurt her. How could you even think of something like that? I really don’t want to spend another minute on you. If you wanted to know about her you called up the wrong person. I’ll leave you here.”She hung up the phone and looked around to see Mei exit the kitchen.“Mei!”Mei turned around to see her walking towards her. “What did he call for? Routine Checkup or what?”“You could probably say that. Anyways what are you up to
Mei decided to go out for a walk to enjoy the night breeze. She wanted to organize herself after coming across loads of information. She paired a random hoodie with sweatpants and a pair of shoes before heading out.She walked down the street with no direction and destination. The moonlit night created an ambience for healing and relaxing. She took a turn into the alleys and went where her legs took her.After searching up Hui she understood the farther she was away from him the safer she would be. She could also guess for sure that he would look her up based on his background.She was halfway out of the alley when a loud bang caught her attention. She halted and went in the direction of the sound. She walked faster towards it.She halted seeing the scene that unfolded. It was something she was not expecting to be. Hui stood at the center facing two bulky guys. He was in a bit of a situation. She scanned him and the surroundings once again to see what she
Hui had impulsively decided to head to her place to return the jeep. It was halfway that he thought about her staying back at Xue’s place. Therefore, he was not expecting to run into her. This unanticipated situation that leads to their encounter brought him a millimeter of joy. He wanted to know her more. As she turned around to leave, he called her out, “Wait!” She looked back at him. He was fidgeting not knowing what to say. Just then he saw her bandage turn to a darker shade of red. “Bl.. Bloo.. Blood” “Wha-” before she could question what he was saying she felt something trickle down from her forehead. She lifted her fingers and brushed the side of her forehead. She saw blood on her fingers. Irritated she rubbed it of with her sleeve. ‘I should have been a bit more careful. Where the hell did, I hit my head.’ Before she could complete cleaning, her forehead Hui grabbed her hand and pulled her along his direction. She struggled to
The dream flashed through...the tightly held hand loosened its grip before it started to slide away. The doctors rushed and occupied their position. "The pulse has dropped" alerted the nurse. "CPR. CPR" ordered the doctor. Everything was falling apart. The chaos didn't seem to disturb her anymore. His last words kept ringing in her ears like an echo. ********* "Over-Over-Over-Wake-up-Wake-up-Over-Over-Over" repeated the alarm. The Deep long curtains seem to hide the passage of time making it hard to differentiate day and night. Even though the bed seemed much cozier than yesterday she gave up the fight to sleep again. It was another weekday and another workday to get started with. The dark shades of dresses in her closet didn't seem to make any difference from each other. She took out the usual shade of black and laid them on the bed and walked to the washroom to take a shower. The vapors ga
She was always ahead of time. So was she today. To her, punctuality meant 5 - 15 minute before the decided time. The buzzing designing office settled down sensing her arrival.She was seen as a heartless figure by her subordinates. Her 16-inch long wavy jet-black hair was only meant for her, her black pupils hid the unknown giving out no clue of anything. She wore no expressions, the only thing she wore was confidence. She wore it like an armor which made her aura strong and unique.Her cold expressions with this unbeatable aura made her unapproachable.She headed straight to her cabin. She was followed by her assistant, Ai Chyou, on her way. Chyou recited the first few tasks of the day to get started with."Hmmm....One strong espresso with a pack of sweetener." she responded before parting ways with Chyou. Chyou left for preparing her request.She closed the door behind before taking her seat comfortably and settling down for work.
Ling was totally taken aback by what just happened. There were no words that could help him climb up the shock that he just received. Standing in the room made him look like a fool who dug a pit for himself. He didn't want to spend another minute here.He left the the room without a word. He wanted to pay her back for what she did.As she pushed open the door of her cabin she was welcomed with another uninvited superior.As she walked towards her chair, she questioned, "Chyou, seems like appointments hold no value when it comes to position and status. Don't you think Mr. Su?""Meilin, I am sorry for coming in without letting you know. I just wanted to talk to you." said Lin as he hoped that she would not turn him down again."Mr.Su Lin, I don't think we are close enough for you to address me in such a way. Also, I would prefer to keep all our conversations formal and work-related. If it is something beyond my requirements lets leave it here."
As Chyou turned to exit she was hold up by Meilin as she asked, "Any update about what I asked you to look up?"She turned around to reply," The CCTV cameras have all been checked at the location you mentioned. None of them has spotted the figure you mentioned except for one.""Send me all the information about the location that holds the footage.""Yes, I understand.""No word should go out about this.""I will make sure."As Chyou exited the cabin she thought 'what does boss has to do with the footage. Strange.'As soon as she received the information, Meilin took her laptop and hacked into system with the footage. She cleared everything leaving no trace of it. Then she busied herself with work.She wanted to get done with the day. She always wanted to leave the company but due to the contract with Su Lin she was tied down to stay. She was waiting for the day when she could leave everything here behind. 'Just a year more' she
The girl darted her eyes around. Hoping for a way to escape. As her back hit the wall, the filled up tears slowly flowed out. Her breaths turned rapid. There were around five to six hooligans cornering her."She sure is a good catch." commented one of them.The other all agreed as they chuckled seeing the desperate situation of the girl.She froze for a moment. She fell of her knees and covered herself protectively with her hands. She had her head down and she spoke with her trembling the voice, "Please, let me go. Please" her sobs made the entire situation more interesting for the hooligans."How could we? We don't let chances pass this easily." replied one of them.The girl cried helplessly after hearing them.Meilin watched; her blood boiled seeing the situation. She calculated the situation and drew a rough sketch, after all this wasn't too hard of a situation to deal with. Alley between a club and a closed storage building. The night wa
