Ji Syaoran tried his best to be discreet but luck wasn't in his favor as of yet. Even after waiting for half an hour, he saw no-one leaving from there. After being tired of waiting for so long, he finally went ahead to take a look. Much to his despair, he found nothing out of the ordinary.
This day got from weird to weirder for Ji Syaoran who had no clue why he was the one coming across such scenarios. First, he saw his brother kissing a GUY! And then, he heard someone planning to kill his brother's GUY!
He believed that the day couldn't possibly get any worse than this but he thought too soon.
"Young master Ran," the team leader of his personal security team came up to him at night.
"What is it?" Ji Syaoran's attention was still on his computer screen while his fingers worked like magic.
"Young master Jie was spotted at the same clubhouse as you." The team leader's voice sounded cautious.
"So what? Jie has been staying in Capital these days." Being part of Ji Family, he naturally knew Zhu Jie; the young master of the Zhu Family. And since both Ji and Zhu family were part of the High Summit, they were on friendly terms.
"He was seen with young master Ren's sworn brother."
As his voice fell, Ji Syaoran's fingers stopped moving and in the next second, the screen flashed with, "You Lost!"
"Are you sure?" Ji Syaoran took off his headset and gave his full attention to this matter. Instead of answering him with words, the team leader placed the tablet computer before him and slightly bowed before taking his leave.
Ji Syaoran was left to stare blankly at the video playing on the screen with a blank face but agitated heart. He played it on repeat before reclining back on his leather chair in resign. "I thought today couldn't possibly get any worse."
Poor Ji Syaoran spent the entire night trying to rake his brain. He was extremely perplexed about what to do next. As the dawn broke, his fuzzy brain finally came to a conclusion and he set out to act on it.
Within twenty minutes he stood right outside Ru's apartment. As she opened the door, she came face to face with a disheveled Ji Syaoran who had prominent dark circles to tell the tale of his night.
Ru eyed him suspiciously as he asked, "Can I come inside? I have something urgent to talk about." Ru turned sideways to give him a way to enter.
It was too early for Ru to accommodate a guest like a courteous host. And she didn't plan on doing so for an uninvited one. Seeing Ji Syaoran looking around at her apartment with interest, she grew impatient.
"Get to business. Don't waste my time." Ji Syaoran looked at her as she stood with her arms crossed before her chest with an obvious scowl and distaste in her tone.
'Looks like he is also not a morning person.' Ji Syaoran concluded in his mind. He couldn't possibly have thought that Ru was insomniac and every insomniac person had a bitter and sour mood after laying awake the whole night. She had yet to gather her emotions to calm herself but Ji Syaoran came running to ruin her moment.
"Okay. I'll get to business then." He pulled out his phone and extended it towards Ru saying, "This... Did you do it alone?"
"Did what?" Ru retorted while staring at the photos on the screen.
The video wasn't high-quality considering it was shot with a mobile camera but one could see the way her figure flashed around to drop bodies like it was the live version of his favorite online game.
"You're more dangerous than I thought." Ji Syaoran replied exasperatedly. Wasn't it already hard enough to accept that his brother was in love with a GUY? Now, that GUY was even like the King of Hell that held no remorse.
Ru's earlier raging emotions were set to tranquility with that video. She was amused by Ji Syaoran's reaction. If he thought she was dangerous then why was he here? Didn't he consider that she might kill him at the spot as well just to keep her secrets?
Passing his phone back to him, she sat on a high stool and said, "I don't think you came here early in the morning just to tell me that I'm a dangerous person."
Ji Syaoran wasn't surprised that she looked right through him. With her intelligence, it'd be a wonder if she didn't. "What if I want to know what's going on between you and my brother?"
Ru was a bit taken aback by his words. She certainly wasn't expecting these words from him.
