Chapter 214 Enemy
Fu Xiaolan stared at Jiang Yue, unable to see her true meaning.
However, only one thing is clear. She is threatening her.
Fu Xiaolan let out a sigh before shaking her head. "Miss Jiang, I really like you."
This time she is telling the truth. No pretense nor lies.
"But?" Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow.
"But, I believe we are two sides of the same coin. Born to always oppose each other." Fu Xiaolan said, dropping all the pretentious facade that she had earlier. Her expression relaxed, languid. As if she was just released from her burdens.
"Are we?" Jiang Yue’s lips lifted into a smirk. Are they really two sides of the same coin? Were they born to oppose each other? "Then tell me... how do you deal with your enemies? Do you usually torture them as well?"
Her direct question almost made Fu Xiaolan spill her drink. Does she know about her father as well? "Maybe? Why don’t you guess?"
Jiang Yue looked at her from head to toe before laughing. "I would see you as someone gentle. Someone who won’t lift a finger towards their enemies... But we both know that’s not true right?"
This time the provocation in Jiang Yue’s eyes is too obvious to even Bei Ye who was standing a meter away from her can feel it.
"Careful Miss Jiang, you don’t want to fight a war without knowing your enemies. It will only result in a crushing defeat." Fu Xiaolan said. She is now certain that Jiang Yue wanted to see her because of another matter.
She was also certain that Jiang Yue know about Fu Honglie being alive. Fu Xiaolan wondered if they are planning to rescue him. For some reason, she was glad that she left Fu Honglie half dead. She wondered how long her father will last in that state.
The only good thing about this meeting is the fact that she is already prepared to leave the country anytime. In fact, she already called her mother and asked her to turn herself to the police for Fu Zouyi’s poisoning.
"You are wrong Miss Fu. I am a conventional woman." Jiang Yue said as she leaned closer towards Fu Xiaolan’s face."I want to win first and then go to war later. I have the tendency to subdue my enemy without fighting. In this case, I can say that we are the same... almost."
"Art of War... I would say I am impressed." Fu Xiaolan answered."I like you Jiang Yue... and for that, I will warn you. I am not your enemy. You better know who is... before its too late."
Jiang Yue squinted her eyes at Fu Xiaolan’s words before resuming the clam look in her face. "Thank you for the warning Miss Fu... or shall I call you Mister Fu now?"
*HAHAHAHAHA* Fu Xiaolan’s laughter startled both Jiang Yue and Bei Ye. "For your own good... stop being too smart. Some things are meant to be hidden forever."
"Hidden? Is that why you deliberately loosen the security of your file?"
"You knew?"
In response, Jiang Yue just stared at Fu Xiaolan. "Tell me... who is asking you to create trouble for the Wang and Fu Family?"
"How sure are you that it’s not just me and my... evil tendencies?" Fu Xiaolan asked, amused by Jiang Yue’s wits.
"You wanted to me overhear about the pregnancy so I could investigate you. But I didn’t realize it at that time. You used someone traceable to attack my company knowing that I will track the culprit. You used a bank account that you yourself opened for me to track you." Jiang Yue answered. "Now tell me... who is behind all this and why warn me? I know you only wanted to hurt your father and mother as well as your brother, not Fu Jin nor me."
"You are one hell of a smart woman Miss Jiang... it makes me wonder if you got it from your mother or... your father."
"What are you talking about?"
Ignoring Jiang Yue’s question, Fu Xiaolan continued. "You are wrong about one thing, I hated the whole Fu Family and I wanted to destroy all of them. Too much power will only attract greed. However, you are right, I would not hurt you."
"What are you talking about???" Jiang Yue raised her voice. The way Fu Xiaolan mentioned her father and mother made it seem like she knows both of them. Though this is impossible, Jiang Yue can’t help but be curious about the meaning of Fu Xiaolan’s words.
Aside from this, her instincts were never wrong.
"Time’s up, Miss Jiang. If I’m right, your man will call you any minute now. He wouldn’t want you to spend too much time to someone like..." Fu Xiaolan’s words were interrupted by the vibration of Jiang Yue’s phone. "See?" Fu Xiaolan smirked as she watched Jiang Yue’s confused expression.
If she was still a man, she would surely make Jiang Yue his. After all, a woman like Jiang Yue was one of a kind.
Too bad the only thing man in him was only his heart. She used to think that she would never undergo another surgery to change her into what she was. However, meeting Jiang Yue seemed to spark this idea inside her.
"It seems like, he would be here anytime soon." Fu Xiaolan said before standing, her tall frame towering over Jiang Yue. "I hope you won’t mind, but I have to go now."
Fu Xiaolan walked towards the door of the VIP room without waiting for Jiang Yue to answer her. However, just before she could open the door, she turned her head over her shoulders to look at Jiang Yue. "Send my regards to my father. If... he was still alive." Then she gave Jiang Yue a smirk before leaving, "See you soon Miss Jiang."
