Birth of the Devilish CEO: So what if i'm a Lady?

Chapter 138: Time for hunting

After spending two days making preparation for the hunt, Yi Lan and Lie Ruge were now ready to conquer their enemies no matter what it took. There was no room for losing, only winning. They had spent the two days cuddling and playing in each other's embrace. Lie Ruge never felt so uneasy. She was afraid for the first time in her life, when faced with completing this mission. She had always felt confident whenever she fought alone, when Yi Lan nor the other two guys were in her life. Right now, though, she was afraid for an unknown reason. Before, she could easily bet her life on the line to win a battle, but now she has someone she loves and someone who equally loves her back. She was afraid of losing. She was the number one top assassin, but even the god of war sometimes gets afraid when faced with a formidable enemy, so it was okay for her to be scared.

Later that night in her Mansion after promising Yi Lan that she will sleep over at his place after the hunt. She even promised to let him into her Mansion too after the hunt and Yi Lan's joy knew no bounds. He had asked her on different occasions why she does not allow any of them entry into her Mansion, but she had always evaded the questions like she always did. So hearing her promise, he was overjoyed because he has always looked forward to having a glimpse at her magnificent Mansion. Lie Ruge stood in front of her mother's picture which was hanging on her sitting room wall. She started talking to the picture in an emotional manner. 

" Mum, I have finally found the man that has been able to melt my icy heart. After witnessing the pain dad went through after your death. I had promised myself not to ever fall in love but at last I was not able to keep that promise. The first time I met him in the club, I had already labeled him as a total jerk in my mind.  I also had the intention of killing him for daring to look down on me and Xiao Bai because we were girls, but for once in my life I'm glad Xiao Bai stopped me from killing them. He and his friends have changed my dark painful life into a life filled with laughter and an abundance of love. Meeting him was the best thing that has ever happened to me, mum, and I'm very happy and fulfilled right now. I am sure that you are also happy for me wherever you are. I want to change completely for him, mum, because he has really changed himself just for me too. Mum please watch over us tomorrow. Ok? I will make sure to give him the answer that he has always wanted from me tomorrow. I love him so much, mum, so watch over him for me. I am scared of losing him because he means the whole world to me. And if that my world ceases to exist, then I Ge'er will also cease to exist after unleashing terror on my enemies for daring to take the one thing I love from me. I love you mum and I'm sorry I wasn't able to protect you back then, but I will make sure to protect Yi Lan with my life.  I promise you this mum, so please bless our union from above", Lie Ruge said touching the picture. Tears brimmed up in her eyes but she refused to shed a single drop. She later went to her bedroom to sleep, but she couldn't sleep no matter what she did. She later fell asleep the next morning. Yi Lan on the other hand fell asleep smiling, he had already made preparations to formally proposed to her after the hunting so he could not wait for the fight to be over.

The next day, Xiao Bai arrived at Lie Ruge's Mansion very early in the morning. She wanted to support her best friend in any way she could since Lie Ruge had warned her sternly not to take part in the fight. She has seen Lie Ruge fight many battles for the past three years after her return, but she was scared every single time. Although Lie Ruge had always won in the end there were also times she got injured in those battles. She was afraid and her fears showed in how she behaved. After having a light breakfast, Lie Ruge and Xiao Bai settled for a brief chat.

" Ge'er, are you sure the assassins will fall for you and Young Master Yi's plan? For all we know they might know that the two of you are luring them out so what will you and Young Master Yi do if your plans does not work?", Xiao Bai asked with concern written all over her pretty face.

" I won't say I'm 100% sure that they will fall for our plans, but I'm sure they won't be caught on the fact that we were only acting when Yi Lan and I came up with the car racing competition. I'm certain they they were listening to our conversation then and that they will grab this opportunity because it is a very good chance for them to carry out their assassination plan.  Yi Lan and I are fully ready for them. I'm certain we will win for sure",Lie Ruge said trying to sound as confident as ever. She will only make Xiao Bai feel less worried if she herself does not show her fears.

" Ge'er, I think not taking some of your men along with you is a bad idea. What if they outweigh your numbers? What will you and Young Master Yi do? Ok, how about you allow me, Yun Yi and Tan Fan to assist you and Young Master Yi. I really feel so uneasy letting you go without my company so Ge'er let me come along with the two of you even though you don't want Yun Yi and Tan Fan's assistance hmmm?", Xiao Bai asked cutely. She was trying every possible way to go along with her best friend.

" Hey BaiBai, relax. I have got everything under control. I am Ge'er the baddest woman on the planet like the underworld people call me. I can do this or don't you trust your Ge'er again", Lie Ruge said trying to make Xaio Bai less worried and it worked.

" Of course my Ge'er is the best and you always have the world's number one martial arts experts with you so I'm sure he won't let you get hurt in any way,'' Xiao Bai said finally feeling relaxed.

" Ge'er,  when are gonna introduced Young Master Yi to your dad? He has already called you to bring over for about ten times now so when do you plan on introducing him to your dad because you know how stubborn uncle can be if he decides to take the topic seriously. He will not give you a way out if you decide to keep on ignoring his invitation and I bet you have not yet inform Young Master Yi about it. And seriously Ge'er, when are you guys going to make your relationship official. I'm 100% sure that you love him too, so what is holding the two of you back from spreading the most exciting news of a lifetime to the world?", Xiao Bai asked curiously. 

" About dad, I have already told him that Young Master Yi is busy and he had already given me the speculated time to bring him home. He knew I will not listen to him so he threatened to call Yi Lan's dad to set our marriage date if I don't meet up within the time he has accorded to me.  I will relay the news to Yi Lan after today's battle and Yi Lan and I have not thought about spreading the news about our relationship on the media so I guess will have to come up with a plan later on `` Lie Ruge said checking her wristwatch. 

" I will make sure to be your event planner that day. Ge'er, I have very good plan to suggest so  can I go ahead to suggest it," Xiao Bai asked.

" Since when did you start asking for permission before you can talk? Ok, you can go ahead but be quick about it because I'm sure Yi Lan must be waiting for me at our meeting point", Lie Ruge said her eyes still on her wristwatch. 

" Your birthday is coming up in four months time so how about the two of you make the announcement? That is if you are not yet married due to disobeying your father, hahaha....?", Xiao Bai said trying very hard not to laugh too annoyingly. 

" I didn't plan on celebrating my birthday but I will think about it and I will also ask Yi Lan whether it is okay with him", Lie Ruge said standing up to her feet.

" Ge'er,  can I at least accompany you to your meeting point?", Xiao Bai asked with puppy eyes.

" There is an important thing I want you to help me with. Assist Xu Feng and the rest of my men to capture those spies. I trust that you will do a good job before I'm back and don't allow Firefly to get too excited because I want all of them alive Ok?", Lie Ruge said heading outside with Xiao Bai following behind her.

" Sure, I will do an excellent work Boss", Xiao Bai said acting like her subordinate.

"See you later",Lie Ruge said. Entering her car she immediately zoomed off.
