Phoenix's Fated Half

Chapter 145

The next morning, Jun Kai woke up with papers and files all around his room.

No matter how much Lin Cheng persuaded his boss to take a short rest, Jun Kai was persistent. The first thing that came out from his boss" mouth was to bring all the evidence they had retrieved. Since then, his boss had been working like a mad man sitting on his bed. He truly could not understand why his boss was pus.h.i.+ng things this far, truly unlike him.

Jun Kai goes through papers from the news station they had rooted down. He looked carefully at the case of the Shen family"s report. The factory that he went to yesterday had belonged to his father and mother-in-law. However, it should have been shut down years ago since the car accident that had taken both the Shen couple away. Well, that was what his wife had told him about his parents.

He kept thinking to himself as he felt the unsettling matter of this. Shen factory. What did the Shen family have anything to do with the culprit? The more he thought of it the more confusing he felt.

However, if it was true that his mother and father-in-law had anything to do with the culprit, then they would be a great lead to a search for the culprit.

Thinking of the culprit, Jun Kai took out a cuff sword he had kept beside him. He gazed at it calmly like he had been doing ever since he was presented it. According to the Xuan leader"s instruction of how to use this item, he would have to find the beauty"s blood before he can drag that culprit down.

A knock came to the door and Jun Kai put the sword away, "Come in."

Lin Cheng opened the door and bowed politely before reporting his business, "Sir, Miss Xue Li is here. She requests to visit the chairwoman."

Jun Kai was expressionless. It was not a surprise for her visit for he long knew she would come sooner or later. Although his first thought was to decline her, but thinking again he spoke, "Let her in." Jun Kai halted before speaking some more "Don"t take her to my grandmother yet. Just bring her here first" He did not want her to be causing trouble at the beginning of the day.

"Yes, sir." Lin Cheng then went away to follow his orders.

Soon, Lin Cheng went to the young lady that was standing with crossed arms near the window. She wore a pair of sungla.s.ses to keep others away.

"Miss Xue Li." He called out to the other person.

Xue Li took her cla.s.ses out. When she turned around, she had a lukewarm smile placed on her face, "May I go in now?" There was some sarcasm mixed with her voice.

"Yes, Sir Jun Kai has requested Miss upstairs." Lin Cheng bluntly ignored the provocation from the other side and simply acted his part of being a good right-hand man.

Xue Li rolled her eyes in irritation. She had come all this way to the Shen family"s hospital just to see Jun Kai and grandmother Feng. It was that woman"s family business and was truly annoying for her to even think about Fei Ling. Then, upon arriving she was stopped without any negotiations. These people must have forgotten her Li clan"s power.


But thinking again, when she marries into the Feng family, she would teach these people in front of her a lesson. Especially this secretary, hmph!

"This way please, Miss Xue Li" Lin Cheng politely showed his hand behind the guards. Once Lin Cheng"s invitation fell out, all the guards that had turned a blind eye to Xue Li before instantly made way for Lin Cheng. Even a secretary like him has more weight in the Feng family, tut tut. Not everyone was bound to listen to her always.

Nevertheless, Lin Cheng led the young miss of the Li family upstairs to Jun Kai"s room as instructed.

On the surface, Xue Li kept a cool posture, but inside she could feel her heart race faster. She would always have an antic.i.p.ation of meeting the other person. Lin Cheng brought her through a long corridor full of guards and when they reached a patient room, Lin Cheng halted, "Please…" and indicated for Xue Li to head inside.

Xue Li opened the door and was slightly confused. The first thing she saw was Jun Kai on the patient bed reading a book. Wasn"t grandma Feng ill? Why was Jun Kai on the patient bed?

With a worried face, she walked inside and sat beside Jun Kai"s bed. Xue Li reached her hand out to Jun Kai"s arms and asked genuinely, "What happened to you?"

Jun Kai looked up from his book to the newcomer blankly, "An injury from working, that"s all."

Seeing how Jun Kai did not show any signs of much pain, she felt the lump in her heart lifted. However, her eyes turned cold of the posibility of the source of Jun Kai"s injuries. Although there was not much physical pain, only Jun Kai knew where it hurt the most, but did not mention it to anyone.

She looked around and saw no signs of that other girl, Mi Rong. Xue Li felt more content in her heart knowing that that girl did not come to take care of Jun Kai while she was not around. To Xue Li, it seemed the only geniune part about her was her care for this special person. She would do anything for him or rather to get him.

However, did he feel the same way was still bothering Xue Li. At times, he would seem to care more for her, but at times he could be as cold as the frigid winter and not care about her. What were his feelings towards her now?

Xue Li could not contain her thoughts and asked, "Jun Kai." She showed some signs of hesitation and her cheeks slightly flushed, "About our wedding."

She only spoke three words, but Jun Kai felt nauseous inside his heart. However, his face showed none of his emotions as always, "Don"t worry. Plans have already been made for it." Jun Kai merely brushed over the topic, but Xue Li felt it was enough for her.

It Jun Kai had spoken something, he would keep it. That"s what she knew about this man since watching him date Fei Ling in the past. Hence, she took her mind off of it, "Jun Kai, where is grandmother then? I want to meet her and show my greetings since I"m here." Xue Li even chose to call grandma Feng so intimately as if she was already the granddaughter of grandma Feng. Nevertheless, Jun Kai did not say anything about it

He only spoke, "Accompany me for a walk. Grandmother just went to sleep." Jun Kai merely spoke to take her attention away from going to see grandma Feng.

Caught by surprise, she blurted, "Huh?" Then, she composed herself and agreed immediately with a warm smile, "Yes."

Lin Cheng came in and helped his boss get on a wheelchair. Once Jun Kai sat on the wheelchair, Xue Li walked behind and pushed it for him like a loving lover.

The two went outside where there was a garden for the patients to recuperate. Xue Li pushed Jun Kai neither too fast nor too slow. While they went around, Xue Li talked about all the preparations for the ceremony.

Jun Kai would answer with a few short sentences, but it was enough for Xue Li since it was much better than before. This person would hardly ever talk with any other girl except Fei Ling. Even when she was friends with Fei Ling, Jun Kai would hardly speak to her.

From above in a window, a reflection of a lady sitting calmly while reading a few files beside the window sill was shown.

Mi Rong looked up from her reports that she had received about their process in finding the relation of the Shen family and the culprit. However, it was rather complicated. It seemed that the culprit haad deep roots in the Shen family since the Shen couple was alive. Although she now knew where the culprit was, she would have to wait until she was better. That person was not easy to handle and she could not ask anything more from Sparrow who was deep asleep in her headquarters.

She took a deep sigh and rest from her files. Mi Rong casually looked outside to the sky and looked down. Two figures caught her attention.

Watching from afar she could see Xue Li pus.h.i.+ng Jun Kai on the wheelchair carefully. She could see them from the side and how Xue Li was joyfully talking with Jun Kai. It was like two loving couple joining each other for a walk. How loving it seemed!

Mi Rong did not look at them any longer and turned away. That guy! Messing with other people"s feelings for what?
