This man was the only person who knew about her true ident.i.ty, way back when she was still training. Yet, he had never said a thing. He supported her, took care of her, treated her wounds and helped her grow.
w.a.n.g Ruo knew that Li Qiang liked her since she had started working for the military. However, he had never told her about his feelings. It was mainly because he was afraid of ruining their friends.h.i.+p. w.a.n.g Ruo was originally thankful to Li Qiang that he had never confessed to her, but now, it seemed that she couldn't help but regret not telling him about her true feelings towards him.
She only saw him as an elder brother. Nothing more.
w.a.n.g Ruo wanted to tell him about that fact a long time ago, yet every time she tried to do so, Li Qiang's pa.s.sionate gaze would always overpower her conviction. She would then think about the things that they had gone through together and would fear that her words would create a crack in their friends.h.i.+p.
However, everything changed after that incident.
Incident? Was it really an incident?
w.a.n.g Ruo sneered at her silly thoughts. What had happened back then was not an accident.
And she was well aware of that.
After all… she was the one who…
"So, you're telling me that you will let me kill him?" Once again, Li Qiang asked.
"Why wouldn't I?" She quipped. "That man means nothing to me."
Li Qiang stared at w.a.n.g Ruo, then at Jiang Yue who was also staring at him. Although the latter was holding a gun, she was not pointing it at him. Jiang Yue was just staring at him, her eyes unfathomable.
"Leave, now! This has nothing to do with you anymore." He said to Jiang Yue. Since w.a.n.g Ruo had already agreed to leave with him, then he would spare Jiang Yue. After all, he could always use Jiang Yue to put a leash on w.a.n.g Ruo.
In Li Qiang's mind, w.a.n.g Ruo just needed to see his good points for her to fall for him. After all, his and Li Jun's appearances were already the same. It would not be that hard to make w.a.n.g Ruo transfer her emotions from Li Jun to him, right? But that was what he thought...
"No."
Silence followed Jiang Yue's words, as everyone, including w.a.n.g Ruo, stared at her.
"No?" Li Qiang smiled. "Do you want to die instead of leaving?"
"If you think that my mother would love you after you kill me, then feel free to do so." She snickered. "Fool..."
"What did you say?" Li Qiang was about to walk towards Jiang Yue when a shadow pa.s.sed him. It was too quick for his eye to follow. The only thing that he felt was the throbbing pain in his leg, making him lose his balance.
Li Qiang tried to grab something to support himself, but he failed.
"Thud"
"Thud"
"Thud"
In less than a minute, Li Qiang and his two other subordinates had fallen. Two of them already died, even before their lifeless bodies. .h.i.t the cold floor.
It was too sudden. Both Jiang Yue and w.a.n.g Ruo was rendered speechless. Their eyes widened, mouths agape. What was happening?
The first one who recovered from the shock was w.a.n.g Ruo, she instantly elbowed her daughter, waking her up from her stupor.
Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes at her surroundings. She instantly froze when she saw that both the Prime Minister and Carlisle were already lying unconscious. While Li Qiang was lying on the floor, he was still conscious but there was an obvious wound on his waist. His two other men were lying on the floor, their throats slit, eyes wide open. As if, they were still not aware that they were already dead.
What was happening...?
