Chapter 100 - An empty gift box

...

Buried in a sea of documents. Lu Yao Yin was interrupted by a series of knock on her door.

"Come in" She called out without even looking up. Her eyes still scanning the thick backed book in her hand and her fingers flipping the pages respectively.

"Boss" Si xunmi's voice rang out, making her avert her eyes from the documents. The girl was not alone. A languid young man plopped himself on the couch like a dried out leaves falling from a tree.

As if adjusting her wrist watch. Lu Yao Yin twisted the Rolex, also turning on the signal jammer inserted into the watch. Thanks to this her new baby she didn't need to worry about secret cameras or wireless microphone and could have important conversations in her office or anywhere she did. Guan Li is really an expert when it came to gadgets.

"What did you find?" The first question was directed to Si Lu Te who was acting like an exhausted dog on the couch.

"There was nothing fishy about the car or it's driver. It's a regular cab from one of this cab company. The driver seemed to have been on the phone that was why he parked here at that time. I went as far as checking the call records. He was talking to his daughter who was in school" He explained meticulously.

Lu Yao Yin frowned lightly. No matter how she told herself to get that feeling out of her head, she still was bugged by the thought that she was being stalked by someone. Her instinct had gone to the car that was why she asked him to investigating the car parked there but could she had been wrong at the car?

"was there anyone in the car at that time?" she asked. She wasn't the type to have wrong perception. Most of her instinct also turned out right that was why she wanted to know.

Si Lu Te nodded "I checked the car log. He has only picked one person this morning and had even drop him before the time he got here.

Since that was the case, there was no need to push it. One way or the other she would really find out if she was being trailed.

"Anything on your side?" She turned and asked Si xunmi.

"Yeah you caused quite a stir dealing with Lu Shenqi, I think Ah Se mi might have plans of testing you out soon. She suddenly asked for a thorough background check on you. I got this information from an ally in chaos" She explained and showed some papers to Lu Yao Yin.

Lu Yao Yin didn't look at the papers for long, they all contained information about this body background. There was nothing she didn't know about that was written in the report.

"Let her do whatever she wants to do. Stopping her would only increase her suspicions. She wants to play? I could entertain her for a few rounds of catch the ghost" She said confidently. She was not wrong. It was pointless looking into this bodies background as they were two different entities. It was only a miracle that she ended up being transmigrated into this body and that miracle was something no body knew of. That was her leeway, she could chose to be the lowly Lu Yao Yin and plot a scheme to overthrow the whole world and nobody would trace it back to her.

Si xunmi added "I'm sure she seeking you out wouldn't be anytime soon. That because she seems very desperate to find Carnage"

"Carnage? our arms company?" Si Lu Te joined the conversation whilst busying himself at slurping the bunch of grape that was meant to be Lu Yao Yin's.

"It's not her who is desperate but Revolution's boss. I take pride in my effort and bold to say that the group was probably relying on Chaos cold steel connection but now that we have smoked them all out, It seems they are at the heat of need. Ah Se mi must have lost her worth. She's eager to gain it back. How pitiful. It's only because she a baby in diapers, she knows she can't form her connections by herself, even those she thought would contemplate on helping her are trying to save their heads so she's desperate to get her hands on something. Tsk Tsk desperation is the devil's hook, I thought she knew that" Lu Yao Yin's settled herself in her rocking chair and gleefully tapped her filed nails on the smooth wooden table. A Peculiar smile dragging on her lips.

"What do you plan to do?" They both knew her well and that smile too. That smile that smelt mischief and evilness. She was definitely up to something.

"How close are we to finding Revolution boss?" She asked a question of her own, still with the smile hanging on her lips

"Not so close. Se mi has made quite a lot of flops but still that boss is yet to show case." Si xunmi reported.

"He's like a slug, everytime we think he would show up. He slurps back into the shadows and cover up the tracks Se Mi left. It's a wonder how he still let her stay with that group with how many times she had nearly exposed him" Si Lu the sneered.

Lu Yao Yin nodded "I don't expect anything else. He's probably dissatisfied with her too, but he still needs her. Every mafia group major problem is finding enough supply of arms for their operations. I'm probably the government No 1 worry when it comes to a seemless trade of arms. For this main reason he's holding unto Chaos. Ah Se mi must have given him hope too. Nevertheless it's perfect for the situation. it shows they are in the same boat. He's just as desperate as Ah Se Mi. It also tells of their agenda, they are planning something big very soon and need a steady supply of arms."

"so what do you want to do?"

"aren't they looking for the arms company?" she chuckled "then we'll give them one"

A knowing glint flashed past their eyes. Her plan now clear before their eyes. It was not hard to figure out. She was about to turn real to fake and fake to real. How would Ah Se Mi feel when she finds an empty gift box.

Since they were done with their discussion the switched the watch back off and they all went to pretending they were discussing business.

"Ah yes, Boss Dexter Corp wishes to have a meeting with you. They have been persistent for a while now, I couldn't say no so I scheduled the meeting for this evening."

"This evening?" Lu Yao Yin looked at her watch. It was almost time for her dinner meeting with Mr Zi. No doubt somebody was already on his way to pick her up.

"That won't be possible. I already have plans for the evening. Perhaps reschedule it for tomorrow" She explained and went back o her work.

Si Lu te tucked "aren't you breaking the bro code? You have a boyfriend now and wouldn't spend time with your bros. Sigh! how heartless you are"

Lu Yao Yin rolled her eyes at him. "Get a girlfriend yourself. It shouldn't be that hard_ oh I forgot you look like a child"

"What child?! Even with this body, I could charm every girl in the city. My suitors would line up to the milky way!" The young man banged his hand on the table and yelled angrily. If only he sees the way he looked at the moment, no different from a teenager throwing a tantrum. Albeit there was an obvious manly charm to him. He might have overexaggerated but it was the truth. A bunch of girl would mind falling for that face.

Lu Yao Yin nodded passively. "Yeah right, you're such an irresistible spec. I'm sure Wanting would be more smitten by you now" She sounded like she was complimenting him but the man's face turned even more angry. A hint of fright and contempt in his eyes as he scowled at her.

"You_ You..." He didn't get to finish his words cause he was already being dragged out of the room like a bag of chips.

Lu Yao Yin gave him a provocative smile and waved. She was less concerned about his ranting. The egoistic buffoon could really use a blow to his pride, once in a while.

"Ah wait till Karma bring Tianlin back!" Lu Yao Yin heard him shout before he was finally dragged away from the office.

She sighed gratefully at the same time. A slight frown appeared on her brows. That brat really know how to chose his words. Why did he have to mention something she had already forgotten? Sigh it was all her fault, she had really touched his soft spot.

"It's almost time" She said as she looked at her watch. With just a few more work to do. She hurriedly signed the document in her hand and got ready to leave the office.
