Goddess of the Thousand Needles

Chapter 40 - Raising the Light of War.

Guan Lin glanced at Jun, "Come out. I'll talk to Yu Jie, you keep track of Xian's whereabouts. Call Feng Ying, it's possible that Xian is with her."

"Okay, Young Master." Jun stepped out.

Yu Jie let go of Guan's embrace, walking to the swivel chair behind her work desk her lover sat there with a crossbow deliberately dominating the situation for Guan to tell her the truth. Staring sharply at the lover, making Guan stand firmly as if he was getting punishment plus he was worried about his sister.

"Darling, can't you look at me like you want to skin me. I'm sorry I kept it a secret for a while, listen to this tape." Guan played the tapping tape on the laptop, Yu Jie did not say anything as long as the recording played.

BRAKKK!

"Breng...!!! They seem to want to die! I've been holding him this whole time! What does this tape have to do with Xian? Why would Xian talk to me like that? Is it because of Feng Ying Fen Lian's brother? Did you forbid your sister from being in contact with Feng Ying just because of Fen Lian?! You fooler! Just so Xian disappeared, he must have run away!"

"Jie Jie. Yours..."

"Yes! You are stupid and also selfish Brother! You only think about me, don't you?! But you didn't think about how your sister felt, it wasn't you alone who betrothed Xian and Feng Ying because of my problem regarding medicine. I hate you right now, but I hate myself even more, Guan! It all started with me, and it ended up being a problem because of me. You hurt your sister! I'll look for him! Guan, don't talk to me if you still don't reflect on your mistakes!" Yu Jie got up from the chair walking past Guan who was standing.

Yu Jie was really unkind to Xian, the girl was forced to accept an arranged marriage but after being successfully separated and only one reason all of that, was because of her!

"Jie Jie, I did it because I was interested in you from the beginning. Now that I love you, what's my fault?!" Guan did not accept.

"Fuck you Guan!" He opened the door with a loud tug, Yu Jie intended to leave from there with explosive rage.

"Jie Jie!" guan shouted following Yu Jie.

"Don't talk to me! Don't ever come to me again if you haven't found Xian! You and your goddamn love I don't need it if it only hurts those around you!"

Yu Jie's footsteps came to a halt as Mr. Wan Xue walked towards him. "Greetings, Sir. Sorry today I can't talk to you, I have to leave immediately."

Without waiting for long after bowing in salute, Yu Jie left the eastern residence.

Master Wan Xue was still staring at the open door that Yu Jie passed through, then he turned to his eldest son who did not dare to chase Yu Jie and just stared at Yu Jie's departure.

"You quarreled? Wh why? You betrayed her? Huh?!" mister Wan Xue.

Guan exhaled his stifled breath, then took a slow breath. "Did you think I would betray her, an amazing woman like Yu Jie? Huh! It's Xian's problem, your daughter's missing."

"Why did he disappear? Was he unwilling to continue the matchmaking with Feng Ying?" asked Mr. Wan Xue who did not know anything.

"Either that! Xian seems to have liked Feng Ying but I forbade him and for a few days I had Jun keep Xian out of contact with Feng Ying. Maybe Xian was angry and ran away or was taken away by Feng Ying, I'm still figuring it out."

"What's your reason for banning your sister?" asked Sir Wan Xue puzzled.

As far as the eastern residence was concerned, Yu Jie had Haocun take him to the Chu extended family residence. With bated anger he wanted to smash Ming Na and Li Mei. However, halfway through the road he had Haocun turn around.

"Where do you really want to go, miss?" haocun asked behind the wheel, with one other bodyguard beside Haocun.

"To the West Residence, I want to meet Fen Lian with the real face of that woman!" furious Yu Jie.

"Do I need to inform Young Master, if you will be in danger... Young Master will be angry." Answer Haocun.

"No need! After I'm done with my business if you want to report, report! But don't report now, I don't want to be prevented let alone harassed by your Young Master!"

Haocun looked at his fellow bodyguards in the side seat, his colleague just nodding.

"Good, Miss."

It didn't take long for the car that brought Yu Jie to reach the western residence, yu Jie's name, which was already famous among business people and the elite, made the head of the union named Mr. Zhuting rush out to welcome Yu Jie after hearing the report from the gatekeeper.

"Greetings, Miss Zhu. It's an honor for you to set foot in our residence. Please come in," Mr. Zhuting kindly treated Yu Jie.

"Greetings, Mr. Zhuting. I've heard your name for a long time, but only this time I can visit. Forgive my impoliteness, sir." Yu Jie bowed in respect.

"It turns out that besides Miss Zhu being kind, you are also very polite. I'm so lucky to have a young genius like you come here, so jealous of your Dad for having a daughter like you. Let's get in..." Mr. Zhuting smiled.

"Who's coming?" ask Fen Lian who just finished sports with clothes that open here and there showing the smooth body parts of the cruel woman.

When he saw who had come, Fen Lian's eyes widened. Never in his mind, Yu Jie dared to come to the West Guild residence. "Yeah... Jie.." -..."

"Hello, Fen Lian. I came to visit your father, also want to meet my friend. Are you busy?" yu Jie said as sweetly as possible.

"Friends? So you two are friends. Well, I didn't know you were friends with my daughter. It's nice to hear that, haha..." Mr. Zhuting was delighted, he patted his daughter on the shoulder. "Keep being friends with Miss Zhu, be nice to her. Understood.." he said again to Fen Lian.

"B-well, Dad." Fen Lian replied, There is no other choice.

"I'd like to speak with you, Mr. Zhuting. There may be business prospects I can offer, but it's just the two of us." Yu Jie spoke again firmly.

"Sure, let's get into my room. Fen Lian, have the waiter bring the Jiang family's favorite snacks and tea."

After that Mr. Zhuting walked towards his study with Yu Jie following, but before Yu Jie left he first whispered in Fen Lian's ear. "When I'm done with your father, we have to speak with four eyes. I hear you love Guan so much with a craze, let's talk about your madness to my lover... Miss Jiang. Ah, Fen Lian. my friend." A cynical smile was exposed on Yu Jie's lips, he did not hide the intent of his arrival on Fen Lian wanting to punch the war drums.
