The Typhoon's Dangerous Wife

Zhenyi immediately disconnected the call with Alcina and dialled her father\'s number. Xin Yichen was not in the country recently. For some unspeakable reasons, he had left the country two months ago. Now that she thought back to how he informed her that he would be out of the country especially when his daughter\'s trial was about to take place, she found it quite fishy. What could be the reason for his sudden disappearance other than the possibility that he had hidden some other children of his in another country? 

The call connected and Xin Yichen\'s surprised voice rang in her ear. "Zhen Zhen, are you alright?"

It was midnight where Xin Yichen was currently. He was stunned to find Zhenyi calling him so late at night. Seeing her number flashing on his phone screen, he felt a sudden rush of fear as if something was not fine with her. 

"I don\'t think I am fine," Zhenyi said immediately, mad. "How can you hide such big news from us Bà? Do you think we will be some kind of wicked half-siblings to our brother? You have another son and we don\'t even know?"

"Who told you?" Xin Yichen asked, shocked. 

"Ryuu said that you had impregnated a woman and didn\'t even bother to tell us that we have another brother!" Zhenyi grumbled. "I\'m so mad, Bà." 

"Ryuu said this?" Xin Yichen said through gritted teeth. 

"Who else?" Zhenyi scoffed. 

"Good," Xin Yichen said with a smile. "Very good. Good night, Zhen Zhen. I will be home tomorrow." 

With this said, Xin Yichen disconnected the call and Zhenyi was left gaping. 

"Don\'t tell me, Bà just hung up on me?" Zhenyi asked herself. She threw the cushion on the floor and got down the couch to lie on the carpet on the floor. "Ughh!"

She started the same dumb mafia series and began watching it, roasting the actors and scriptwriters in between. She didn\'t realize when she fell asleep on the carpet but when Long Jie returned later in the evening, he found her fast asleep. He shook his head and kneeled down to scoop her in his arms but not before pecking her head. 

She stirred in her sleep and mumbled something he didn\'t understand. He placed her on the bed and covered her cold body with a duvet. He felt his phone ringing in his pocket and when he saw the caller, he scowled. 

Long Shaoming was calling him again. 

Didn\'t he make himself clear that he had no interest in talking to him ever? 

He had enough lies. 

He cut the call without thinking. But when he saw Long Shaoming\'s message saying, it\'s urgent, he called back. 

This better be urgent. 

"Your grandfather is in hospital," Long Shaoming said in a breathless tone. 

"It\'s not like he is dying," Long Jie retorted. Even if he was dying, it had nothing to do with him. 

"Long Jie! It\'s urgent! He won\'t survive another night!" Long Shaoming shouted over the phone. 

Hearing his father\'s serious tone, he paused for a minute before saying, "I will be there." He called Esma as soon as his call with his father ended. "What the heck you did?!"

"Hello, best friend. It\'s nice to talk to you too!" Esme sarcastically said. 

"Enough with the sarcasm, Esma. Just tell me what the heck you did?!" Long Jie shouted at her. Oh, he didn\'t mean to be mad at her. But he knew that she did something she was not supposed to! 

"You fucking dare to raise your voice at me? You asked me to wait. I gave you one year. Hell more than one year. You were busy with the mess your impulsive wife created and so I took the matter into my own hands," Esma said. "Seems like your father informed you. Get your best clothes ready, Best friend. We have a funeral to attend." 

"Esma, I told you to wait because I didn\'t want to implicate you in this mess. I was trying to protect you. You killed Long Yuhan," Long Jie said, making her see the severity of the matter. 

"Long Jie," Esma called out his name softly. "Goodbye. Take care of yourself and your family. You know I love you the most in the world. I\'m sure you love me the same. Ah, goodbyes are not my forte. I think I am doing a pretty good job at it." 

"Esma, don\'t do anything stupid, "Long Jie immediately said. He was feeling uncomfortable hearing her calm tone. It wasn\'t like Esma at all. " Tell me where you are? I will come to see you now. I was just mad at you. You know I will not let any harm come your way. Please tell me where you are?"

He knew his best friend was irrational most of the time and did things that even she didn\'t understand. 

"Ah Jie, I\'m leaving," Esma whispered. "It\'s time." 

"Esma, listen to me!!" Long Jie said loudly but she disconnected the call. However, he did hear an announcement in the background that seemed like she was boarding a plane at the airport. 

\'If you think you can get rid of this best friend, think again!\'

His worried eased when he received the text from his stupid and crazy best friend.

 Even if he didn\'t want to, he had to leave for the hospital now. He messaged the security planted in the entire building to be on more guard as he was going now, leaving his wife alone in their care. The security was already strict enough to not let even a fly pass. After all, Xin Zhenyi\'s life was more valuable than the president of the country. 

Long Yuhan passed away a few hours later Long Jie went to the hospital to fulfil his responsibility as the head of the clan but he didn\'t forget to remind the old man that he was not going to be forgiven. His wicked ghost would roam around the planet, seeking for peace but he wouldn\'t find it.

 No, Long Jie didn\'t feel an ounce of remorse at the death of his grandfather if not some peace…
