791 Sick bast*rd
When Andrew nodded his head, Zian frowned deeper, "Why would you do that? That is like making them aware—"
Cutting him off, Andrew chuckled, "That we are working together? Yeah, I wanted them to know." Without waiting for Zian's reply, he added, "I know Pulos very well, he is a man who tends to act without using his brains because he doesn't have any. I have been closely monitoring him for years now so taking him down is not a big deal."
"So what is the problem?"
"The main problem isn't Pulos at the moment, it's Lawrence. Though that man hasn't fully recovered yet, his men are already slowly taking control over everything again. Zixin destroyed and took away only sixty percent of what Lawrence possessed and with the forty percent he has now, that man can create a ruckus. Maybe he isn't as powerful as he was before, he isn't completely powerless and he is also relying on Pulos to help him out—"
Raising his brows, Zian added, "But Pulos is relying on you."
"Exactly." Taking a sip from his glass, Andrew explained further, "I wanted him to make a stupid move so that I could completely cut him out. Well, I was hoping that he would try to attack my men or start yelling at me like he does everytime but who wouldve thought that he would something as stupid as threatening me by attacking my sister."
Thinking for quite some time, Zian curiously inquired, "Do you think it's Lawrence who advised him to do so? I mean, he knows that we are helping Zixin to take him down and I am very sure that by now they know everything about Yushen and Jenni so maybe they are trying to warn both of us to stay away from the entire matter by targeting your sister and my brother?"
"I think you are right." Scrunching his brows, Andrew muttered, "I think I should bring Jenni with me to my place after your wedding is over."
"What? You can't do that, what about Yushen then?" Zian snapped.
"What about him? Are you trying to say that I can't bring my own sister with me?" he frowned.
Pursuing his lips, Zian explained, "Okay I'll be blunt with you because there is no point hiding anything, I think Yushen and Jenni are planning to live together and—"
"Zian if you try to tell me that I should be okay with my sister living with a man then you are a sick bastard," Andrew snapped, though he knew that her sister had a boyfriend, he still wasn't okay with her living with him under the same roof.
"What are you talking about? A live-in relationship is so common these days and I know my brother, he is a very responsible man." Zian wanted to make things easier for his brother because he knew that if Jennifer started staying with Andrew, there would be restrictions to many things and he didn't want bummers in Yushen's life.
Scrunching his brows, Andrew fumed, "You are crazy, I dont wanna talk about it and???"
"But you stay with your family," Andrew added.
"Yes I do but I also have an apartment which I bought solely because I want to spend some time with Mian," he explained.
When Andrew immersed himself in a deep thought, Zian sighed and got up. Patting his shoulder, he smiled, "Think about it man and dont be late."
Without waiting for her reply, Zian walked out of the apartment.
….
Li Mansion.
When Zian arrived home, Guang was talking over the phone with someone. Looking around when he realized that no one was around, he grabbed the opportunity to interrogate?the prime suspect.
"Guang, what are you doing here this early?" Zian inquired.
Hanging up the call, Guang answered, "There were a few things to take care of before we leave today so I stayed over yesterday night."
Scrunching his brows, Zian belted, "What? You stayed over? Where did you sleep?" Realizing that he might have been too blunt and obvious, he cleared his throat and rephrased his sentence. "I mean, I saw Yushen taking Jenni to his room so I am concerned whether you slept well or not."
"Ah don't worry about me brother Zian, I slept quite well," Guang answered in the most civil and normal way he could but only he knew how nervous and tensed he was from within.
"I see, so you slept well? I hope wherever you slept was far away from Qiang's room?" Without waiting for Guang's reply, he added, "I mean you know how Qiang is right? She doesn't like anyone loitering around her room so—"
"Ah no brother Zian, I wasn't anywhere near her room," Guang answered, in fact, he was inside Qiang's room, on her bed, cuddling with her all night.
Patting his shoulder, Zian smiled, "Good, don't work so hard and take some rest, did you eat anything yet?" When Guang shook his head, he added, "Eat something first, do you want me to ask someone to make breakfast for you?"
"It's alright brother Zian, I'll make it myself."
Patting his shoulder one more time, Zian went upstairs towards his room.
Pinching his brows, Guang sighed and helplessly shook his head. He couldn't understand whether it was his insecurities or what Zian said had a hidden meaning to it.
Just then, someone hugged him from behind. "Why did you leave my side so early?"
"Why are you up so early?" he inquired.
Pulling away, Qiang pouted her lips and complained, "I woke up and you weren't there and I was missing you."
