"Find a way to kill her." Zhou Jingren uttered as he watched Yu Yanwan's disappearing back. "Don't make a mess. I want her to disappear without any traces." He ordered the man that escorted the woman towards the car. In response, the man nodded and left.
People like Yu Yanwan would not stop until they have revenge. And for Zhou Jingren it is better to end her before she could even talk to someone like her husband. This will avoid further complications.
"Jichen… release the documents that show she had been stealing in her father's company. Make it look like she ran away."
Go Jichen who was on the driver's seat nodded. Yu Yanwan offended the wrong person, and now she will pay for her wrong choices. He always knew that Zhou Jingren had the intent to kill Yu Yanwan when he heard about the inheritance.
However, killing someone inside the car would be too messy.
After a few minutes, Go Jichen started driving away from the parking lot. They then went back to the Sky City and spent the rest of the day with Lily.
On that night, the news of Yu Yanwan siphoning some funds out of the company to a swiss bank account reached the ears of every news company in the city. Soon after, reporters were seen swarming in front of Yu Yanwan's house.
A few hours later, Yu Yanwan's husband was seen filing a missing person report at the police station. Of course, no one believed him. How could she go missing on the day that the scandal was publicized? Everyone instantly assumed that she ran away with the money!
What a shameless woman!
...
Lily on the other hand just lifted an eyebrow as she listened to the news on her tablet. She eyed Zhou Jingren who was sitting a few feet away from her.
"Yu Yanwan disappeared." She stated.
"Hmmm." He nodded.
"Were you involved?" her statement made him turned his head towards her.
"Yes."
Lily nodded in approval at his honesty. Then she pursed her lips and looked at her tablet. She already knew that Zhou Jingren will do something about this matter. After all, Yu Yanwan caused a fire inside the mansion.
"Did she feel any regret?" Lily asked. "Did she show any remorse after she killed her mother?"
"No." He shook his head, his gaze gauging her reaction.
A sigh escaped Lily's lips. "Her ending was too easy." She pouted. "We could have watched as we play with her a little bit."
"You are pregnant." He answered and walked towards her. "I don't want to risk it. The woman is too unstable and heartless. I don't want her to cause any more chaos."
"You have a point." She laid her tablet beside her. "Still… it would have been fun."
"Well… my lovely wife. It is not worth it. She is not worth it." Sitting next to Lily, Zhou Jingren leaned down to kiss her forehead. "Let's chose our fights carefully from now on. If it's not worth it, then let's end them without having second thoughts." His doting tone was the exact opposite of his malicious words.
Lily only nodded at his words. She gave him a grateful smile. He did it to protect her and their child. "You know… you look really handsome. Did you just shave? Or had a new haircut?" her gentle smile turned into a mischievous grinned. In response, Zhou Jingren's stern face instantly vanished.
He ran his fingers into Lily's smooth hair as he helplessly shook his head. "What do you want this time?"
"What?" She widened her eyes in exaggeration. "I am telling the truth. You know… like a normal human being."
"You are far from being normal."
Lily playfully narrowed her eyes. She then beamed at him. "Alright… I am not normal. Now… please… can you please get some milk tea for me?"
"It's already nine in the evening." He answered.
"Are you saying no?"
Zhou Jingren instantly shook his head as if his life depended on it. "No. Of course not. I was just saying that It's still early. It would be easy to find that in at this hour."
"Are you trying to use sarcasm on me, President Zhou?"
"Huh? What is that?" He asked before swiftly moving away from Lily. His laughter echoed inside their room as he grabbed a simple V neck shirt from their closet and run out to go get what Lily wanted.
"You are the best husband!" he heard Lily yelled after he left the room. "And the most handsome too!" she added. In response, Zhou Jingren only shook his head and smiled. He then changed his shirt and grabbed his keys.
Zhou Jingren could easily have someone buy this for them. After all, they have people guarding the Sky City. He also had his men living in the next few floors down them. However, he felt that this is something that he should do as her husband and father to their child.
Before leaving Zhou Jingren asked two of his men not to let anyone inside their flat. Since Sky City is located in the middle of a busy street, it was very easy for Zhou Jingren to find a shop that sells milk tea.
He made an order before he sent a text to Go Jichen to buy all the machines needed to make one. Since Lily loves to drink milk teas, then he will learn how to make one!
This will not only save him some time. This will also impress his wife. The thought of impressing Lily instantly made him smile.
"Is someone sitting here?" A man tall blond man with ocean blue eyes smiled. "I hope you don't mind? The shop is pretty full. I am just waiting for takeout. So… it would not take too long."
Zhou Jingren nodded and turned towards his phone.
"Did you order some hot chocolate too?" the man asked, the same smile still plastered on his face.
"Yes." Zhou Jingren answered. Aside from the milk tea he also ordered two hot chocolates. One for him and one for Lily, in case she decides that she wanted to have his milk chocolate instead.
