My Breathtaking CEO Wife Novel - Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Chapter 54 – Asking You for A Favour

It was almost impossible for normal people to find where the Dragon Soul members were, but for Li Tian…

He only needed to stand at the main door of the company. When he saw that a black car was parked near the office, he smiled and walked towards the car.

He then knocked on the car window and said, “Hey, brother. Tell your leader to come here. I have something to talk to her about.”

The man in the car was napping before Li Tian approached him. However, after Li Tian finished his sentence, the man woke up immediately and stared at Li Tian for about ten seconds as if he wanted to be sure of Li Tian’s identity, and also not expose his own identity at the same time.

In the end, he still responded to Li Tian.

Although that man was practically unnoticeable, Li Tian managed to find him so easily. That only meant that Li Tian wasn’t someone ordinary.

Moreover, he was also ordered by his superiors to respond to Li Tian’s requests.

Anyways, after about ten minutes, Li Tian saw the woman from the other day.

She was Gu Yue Xin, but Li Tian didn’t know her name yet.

“Hey, beautiful. You’re all dressed up today.”

Li Tian let out a small chuckle and walked over to her.

Gu Yue Xin felt uneasy after she received the news that Li Tian wanted to see her. Fortunately, she had been staying in Jiangdu lately, so she quickly rushed over to meet him.

She really wasn’t sure what Li Tian wanted from her this time.

“Mr… Mr Li, how can I help you?”

Gu Yue Xin showed Li Tian respect. She had already investigated Li Tian’s background and found out about his identity.

“Nothing important, but there’s a girl called Xiao Min under you, right? The one dating my friend right now.”

“Uh…”

Gu Yue Xin looked awkward after hearing Li Tian’s words.

Actually, she had no other choice but to send someone to approach Li Tian as she needed some information.

It was clear that she wouldn’t be able to get past Li Tian’s wits, so she tried to approach the people close to him.

Coincidentally, she found out about Li Tian going to the airport to pick up his friend, He Shang. He Shang seemed useful to them, so the Dragon Soul decided to approach him instead.

However, how was she supposed to admit to all that? The man standing in front of her was the ‘devil’ himself! What if he exploded with anger then and there? Obviously, Gu Yue Xin and the entire Dragon Soul weren’t confident enough to face Li Tian’s rage.

When he saw Gu Yue Xin begin to stutter, Li Tian said, “I didn’t care much about this at first, but since the Dragon Soul intervened, then I have one more thing to say. He’s my pal, so whatever you’re doing now, stop. If you dare do anything to him, then don’t blame me for what happens.”

If this came from someone else, Gu Yue Xin would’ve brushed it off instantly. After all, those who dared to threaten the Dragon Soul would all face their consequences one by one.

However, she didn’t dare to think like this in front of Li Tian.

“We won’t. We just needed some information, that’s all. We won’t cause you any trouble.”

It was Gu Yue Xin’s first time caving into someone else’s demands since she joined Dragon Soul.

“Okay, then. One more thing, I need you to explain something.”

“What?”

Gu Yue Xin didn’t expect Li Tian to have more things to say. The Dragon Soul hadn’t been in contact with him lately, so why was he asking for her explanation?

“Ruan Yuan, the guy I killed that day, he belonged to Dragon Soul, right?”

“Uh.. Yeah.”

Gu Yue Xin was slightly confused by Li Tian’s words. Why was he admitting that he killed a member of Dragon Soul in front of Dragon Soul’s leader?

“Why did you send his ashes to Chen Ya Jing? Didn’t you know that Chen Ya Jing had already broken up with him?”

Li Tian squinted at her as he spoke. Gu Yue Xin felt a chill down her spine.

He wasn’t even angry when he talked about the spy we sent to approach his friend. But because of this small matter…

Gu Yue Xin thought hard and long for about a minute or two. After all, it happened a while ago and it wasn’t something important to her.

“I’m not too sure about this. Let me make a quick phone call and I’ll give you an answer after. How’s that?”

“Okay, I’ll wait right here.”

…

After about ten minutes, Gu Yue Xin had finished talking on the phone, and said, “Oh, I understand now. Ruan Yuan’s mother requested us to do this. At first, we sent his ashes to his house, and also compensated his family. But, his mother told us to send the ashes to a woman named Chen Ya Jing. She claimed that Chen Ya Jing was Ruan Yuan’s girlfriend. His mother also said that she would go pick the ashes up personally after a day or two. So, we only followed her instructions and sent the ashes to Chen Ya Jing’s house.”

Li Tian slowly began to understand the situation as Gu Yue Xin explained to him. It turned out that it was Ruan Yuan’s mother who was the one playing tricks. However, his mother knew that Chen Ya Jing and her son had already broken up, so what was the purpose of her sending his ashes to Chen Ya Jing’s house?

“Alright, I understand now. Just give me all the information you have on Ruan Yuan’s mother. Then, we’ll be even.”

“I… I’m afraid I…”

We’ve got rules to follow, too, okay? Since Li Tian wasn’t a member of Dragon Soul, Gu Yue Xin couldn’t promise him.

“You can’t do it? Fine.”

Li Tian waved his hand, signalling that he didn’t want it anymore.

Gu Yue Xin initially thought that Li Tian would get angry, but he unexpectedly gave up quite easily.

After all, Li Tian wasn’t planning on putting in too much effort or sacrificing himself for a girl anyway.

After he finished his sentence, Li Tian got ready to leave. Honestly, he felt uncomfortable talking to Gu Yue Xin. After all, the Dragon Soul was a place with many rules. Based on Li Tian’s personality, he wouldn’t be able to fit into their circle.

During their conservation, Li Tian seemed really casual about it. On the contrary, Gu Yue Xin looked tense the entire time.

When she saw Li Tian getting ready to leave, Gu Yue Xin immediately said, ” Mr… Mr Li, can I ask you for a favour?”

“Huh?”

Li Tian turned around. Wow. The mighty Dragon Soul is asking me for a favour?

“What is it?”

“It’s just… I hope that you don’t use too much of your strength here. After all, this is your hometown. The 18 men from the day before yesterday had committed horrible crimes. But I hope you don’t go after ordinary people, Sir.”

Gu Yue Xin even addressed Li Tian as ‘Sir’. It was obvious that she and the entire Dragon Soul committee was terrified of Li Tian.

Moreover, it didn’t even phase her in the slightest that she had called him ‘Sir’.
