The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel“s Disguise Chapter 147 Her Genius Self

"I heard some conflict is arising in our Mercenary Alliances, pay them a visit personally," Ru ordered over the phone while skimming through the files in her hand.
"Should I go alone?" Adia's voice sounded hesitant.
"Why? Should I send a babysitter with you?" Ru sarcastic retort made Adia shut up immediately. "I'm hanging up. Don't bother me with briefings. You can discuss the issue with your squad."
"Will do." Adia's words were left hanging since the call was already hung up. She stared at the phone screen before shouting, "Impatient much?"
"Welcome back, Master!" Jack's voice startled Adia as she jumped in fright and even dropped her cellphone.
"Pfft!"
Bouts of laughter from around her made her grit her teeth in fury. These jerks actually tricked her! But it wasn't her fault that her master's fear was deep-rooted in her soul. She could offend anyone except for her own master unless she had a death wish or worse.
On Ru's side, she felt hungry after the whole day of reading contracts and seeing those number sheets. At this point, her mind was spinning so much that she felt like every word before her eyes were just a string of binary codes. She could read it but couldn't comprehend anything anymore.
"Raven, search the best place to have Bibimbap(mixed rice)."
"There is a Korean restaurant five kilometers away from your current location. It has the highest reviews." Raven's voice echoed in the silent hall.
"Okay!" Ru shot up from her seat and changed into a pair of sweatpants along with a large hoodie before running out the door.
Getting her favorite ride out of the parking lot, she happily climbed on it and started paddling. Riding a bicycle for a mere five kilometers was no big deal for her. She could even run longer than that but wasn't planning on doing so.
After twenty minutes, she was right outside the restaurant that was named, 'The Kimichi Stop'.
She thought it was an interesting name. Before she could take another step inside, her cellphone rang. "What is it?" She asked seemingly in an annoyed manner.
"Oniisan, where are you?" Yuan's voice came from the other side.
"I'm in the Shànshí district. Why?" Ru changed her tone to normal. Didn't want to scare the youngster.
"Really? I'm also in Shànshí district. Let's meet up. I'm at the bamboo tea house."
'But I'm hungry. And I only want my Bibimbap's bowl filled with my seasoned vegetables, mushrooms, beef, and much more.' Ru was whining inside since she was really reluctant to part away from here.
"Oniisan, are you there?" Yuan didn't hear a reply for a long moment and had to ask again.
She huffed like a kid and said, "Fine. I'll see you in a minute."
With a heavy heart and even heavier feet, she turned to leave the restaurant. Although those enticing aromas were calling out to her, she had to leave. It didn't take her long to find the tea house where Yuan was already waiting for her outside.
"Oniisan! You didn't even ask about my entrance exam or my finals." He immediately stuck to her like her leg accessory.
"You better have a good reason for calling me here," Ru didn't reply to him and instead said her own warning.
Yuan smiled and dragged her along inside the tea house. The tea house was silent and tranquil. Ru could see the bodyguards littered around the entire second floor. When he slid open the door of the private room, Ru saw the person she had least expected.
Ji Rusheng!
The elderly man placed his teacup on the table and lifted his eyes to look at Ru. She saw a hint of smile flash in his eyes. "Have a seat young master Rong." Old Master Ji offered and Ru took the seat on the cushion opposite of him. "Have some tea." Since Old Master Ji poured the tea himself, she couldn't refuse it. It was against her virtues.
"Grandfather, you can ask Oniisan. He was the one who told me about the four greatest pleasures of life." Yuan's voice made Ru spurt out the tea that she had yet to swallow.
"Excuse me!" She wiped her mouth as she gave them an apologetic smile.
A slight smile could be seen on Old Master Ji's elderly face as he said, "Oh... It seems young master Rong is quite insightful. Even an old man like me didn't know that four great pleasures of life are eating, drinking, playing, and enjoying. It's enlightening."
Old Master Ji's sarcastic words brought Ru's guilt back with full force. She was cursing the time when she chose to spout that nonsense. It was such an insult to her genius self that her intelligence was being questioned now.
