After Mu Dongsheng left, she glanced at Wu Xingye and asked, “I’d asked you to check up on this loanshark earlier. Have you found out where their hideout is?”
If these people were sent by the loanshark as her father had mentioned earlier, then this issue would be minor.
The only concern she had was if those folks were not sent by the loanshark!
This would mean that these men were sent by her enemy. Unfortunately, she could not tell who might that be, and an unknown enemy would be most challenging!
She had never once suspected Long Feiting, though. This was because ever since her husband had made the chap apologize to her in public, she reckoned that the young man would not find trouble with her again.
“Their address was recently anonymized so I am not able to confirm the location yet. Do you want us to return to the place to check again?”
She thought about it and told them, “I’ll go and check out the place again myself. Both of you better hurry over to Lao Meng and remodel your bikes. These folks may trace back your identities with those vehicles.”
If it was her enemy who had come after her, it would not be a big deal if she was caught snooping around. However, she could not risk her friends being exposed.
“Alright, you watch out for yourself.”
The two did not stay long after their discussion.
When she returned to the abandoned factory, the place was already vacated. This, alone, was enough to prove that the ones who had come charging after were not from the same gang as the loansharks!
She checked through the vicinity and saw some discarded wires that had been used to install surveillance cameras. These equipment were well hidden and, collectively, they could provide a 360-degree view of every corner inside the compound without any blind spot.
She knitted her brows at this realization. Who had found out her real identity and set out to record the happenings earlier? And what did the person do that for?
Although she believed that her enemy might be one of those rich and influential ones whom she had offended during her assignments, she could not tell who that could be exactly. To her, anyone was a possibility, and yet she did not think that any of them knew that she held a dual identity as Mu Huan and Song Xing.
But she would not expect any of them to try to catch her in this manner, let alone recording those footages of her fights.
Eventually, she gave up trying to figure out who that person might be.
In any case, with the footages in his hands, she was sure that the person would come looking for her in times to come. She would just need to be prepared for his arrival!
At the Bao residence at night.
While Bao Junyan was busy in the study room, she gave a knock on the door before proceeding in. “Hubby, may I disturb you for a second?”
“What is it?” He looked up and glanced over at her.
Walking up to him with a bunny shake, she told him, “This is a facial cream that I’ve concocted, it helps with skin restoration. It’ll be good for the scars on your face. May I apply some for you?”
He looked down at the black box in her hand with much disdain in his heart. “I’m a man. There’s nothing wrong with having scars on the face.”
“How can you say that it’s fine?! I’d go crazy if you were to have a permanent scar on your handsome face!” She would not allow her hubby’s perfect face to be ruined in any way.
He asked with a frown, “Why do you have to go crazy?” His wifey seemed particularly protective over his face.
“That’s because there will be a scar on your face! It would be such a pity if your perfect face were to be ruined…” Such a pity, indeed!
“A man doesn’t need to be good-looking!”
