Chapter 766: Oy, Young Miss Leng
Mu Chao stretched his hand out immediately to hold Leng Zhiyuan’s slim waist and lowered his volume down to gently ask her, “Are you okay?”
At this moment, a helper rushed over quickly and said, “Old Master.”
Leng Zhiyuan heard Old Master and retreated a few steps from Mu Chao’s embrace. Her small face was all red. Her gaze was just like a small bewildered rabbit as she stuttered, “Old…Old Master, I am …sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose…”
Mu Chao looked at her curvy figure from head to toe together with her soft delicate behaviour. He was satisfied as he laughed out loud. He laughed as if he had found his prey.
Zhou Yao had both arms wrapped around his chest and stood upright. He did not straighten his back upright, but his back that belonged to a Special Forces soldier was extremely straight as he looked at the two people on the surveillance footage. He curled the corners of his lips up slightly and snorted out loud. Why could he not tell that she could act so well back in the past?
That day outside the hotel, he’d said that she did not seem like a woman at all. He was not referring to her figure, but he was talking about her character. She was so cold and hard, and looking at it now, she actually also had times like that. She was just like a small woman as she was soft and coy.
He never liked the voice of women. They were coy and squeaky, and he felt that it was so fake, but now, listening to her say, Old Master, why did he feel…
He was unable to describe this kind of feeling. It was just as if there was a small kitten scratching his heart lightly, and it made his entire body…feel itchy.
It was eight o’clock at night very quickly. Leng Zhiyuan tutored Little Young Master in the Mu family, and after they finished his homework, the helpers brought Little Young Master away. Leng Zhiyuan stood up, wanting to go back.
At this moment, Mu Chao was blocking the door.
Leader An was both excited and nervous as he said, “It is starting!”
Leng Zhiyuan was blocked, and she looked at Mu Chao nervously and said, “Old Master, my mission is done. I will have to leave now.”
“Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Accompany me to drink a few glasses.” Mu Chao got closer to Leng Zhiyuan, and he stretched his hand out to touch her small face.
Leng Zhiyuan retreated frantically, and she even knocked against the book cabinet by accident. She forced herself to gain her footing and hurriedly said, “Old Master, I do not know how to drink. I want to go back…”
Mu Chao opened his arms out and went towards her. “Little beauty, don’t go back tonight. Stay behind to accompany me. Be together with me in the future. I can let you do whatever you wish in Myanmar.”
Leng Zhiyuan was shocked as she shivered from head to toe. She used force as she broke away from Mu Chao and said, “I don’t want to. Madam would get furious if she found out. We should not be behaving like this…”
Mu Chao thought that she was trying to play hard to get with him, so he broke out into loud laughter as he chased after her.
Leng Zhiyuan pushed the door of Mu Chao’s study open and walked inside.
“Little beauty.” Mu Chao chased after her before he closed the door to the study and embraced Leng Zhiyuan from behind.
At this moment, there was a numbness on his neck. Leng Zhiyuan took a needle in her hand and injected some anaesthesia to him.
“You…” Mu Chao’s eyes shut, and he fainted on the spot.
Leng Zhiyuan was cold as she gave Mu Chao a kick. Upon seeing Mu Chao not having any reaction, she stood up straight as she expertly tied her hair, which had been drooping down as a ponytail on her collar up, into a high ponytail. “Siii!” She ripped the Burmese costume that she was wearing and exposed her tight black singlet and shorts that she was wearing underneath.
She fumbled for the switch on the corner of the wall, and the walls of the study were split into two halves. The underground research room inside was exposed. She took each step carefully as she walked inside.
There were red UV lights in the research room, and she avoided the UV rays as she headed inside.
Leader An looked at the footage as he exclaimed, “Major General Zhou, this Miss Leng really lives up to her name, and it is only her who can complete the mission so successfully.”
Zhou Yao’s strong, handsome face did not have any expression on it, and at this moment, his gaze lit up, and he quickly said, “Wait a moment.”
Leader An froze and said, “What’s wrong?”
Leng Zhiyuan on the screen also froze instantly.
“There is a fixed time bomb in the research room. The bomb has already gone into countdown.” Zhou Yao looked at Leng Zhiyuan on the screen as he spoke.
“That’s not possible.” Leng Zhiyuan denied it immediately and said, “I did not touch any UV rays.”
“This UV ray is a trap. Mu Chao should press a switch somewhere when he enters the research room to disable all the UV rays, but when someone unexpected enters the UV zone, he or she must be an enemy, so it activates the fixed time bomb. We have been tricked.”
“Major General Zhou, what should we do then?” Leader An was anxious as he asked, “When will the bomb disposal expert arrive?”
He had yet to complete his words when a gust of wind brushed past him. Zhou Yao had already walked over to the door.
“Major Zhou…”
“Leader An, you don’t have to worry. There is our Major General around.” Xiao Zhi was extremely confident as he looked at the back profile of his Major General.
…
Leng Zhiyuan stood on the spot and did not move. After three minutes, someone appeared behind her. That person stooped down beside her. He was clean and swift in his actions as he searched for the bomb equipment before he opened the box with a ding!
Leng Zhiyuan looked over at that side and said, “This is the latest bomb I9001 from Germany. This is my first time seeing this. Do you have confidence?”
Zhou Yao looked at the seven wires on the bomb, silently placed both of his hands inside, and turned the knobs carefully.
At this critical moment concerning life and death, every small action from him decided her fate, so she stared at his face intently.
This was the first time that she looked at him so seriously, and at this moment, he had an extremely serious expression on his face. He did not have any trace of the casualness that he usually had. His short, dark hair was combed back, and it exposed his defined hairline. Anyone who looked at him would think that he was cold and fierce. His skin tone was bronzed, and his features were extremely handsome and structured, looking proper and attractive.
He wore a black singlet that was similar to hers, and he had a pair of camouflage trousers on the bottom. His hands were working silently, and his sculpted arms had extremely defined muscles. He looked extremely powerful.
Leng Zhiyuan’s heart leaped, and this was the first time that she saw him behaving like this.
At this moment, Zhou Yao turned her over to the side, and he curled the corners of his lips up into a small smile as he said, “Oy, Young Miss Leng, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. These seven wires, why don’t you pick one.”
As he spoke, his long finger picked the blue one.
Leng Zhiyuan looked at him in disbelief. This matter involved their lives, and he actually asked her to pick the wire. Was he joking around right now?
As she looked at the bold casual smile on the corners of his lips, Leng Zhiyuan hated that she could not go forward to give him a kick. She actually admired him a little just now. This man was really a leopard that did not change its spots.
“You are mad…”
She was scolding him.
But his hand was quicker than her, and he broke the blue wire immediately.
Leng Zhiyuan stopped breathing at that moment, and the bomb did not explode.
Did he succeed?
Leng Zhiyuan looked at him. The man had already stood up, and he used both hands to put on a pair of white gloves before he headed over to the research counter. He fumbled around for a few moments and removed a chip at last.
Upon noticing that he did not want to bother with her at all, Leng Zhiyuan could not help but be frustrated. What did he mean? He obviously had the means to dismantle the bomb confidently, but he still asked her on purpose. Was he enjoying witnessing her embarrassing moments?
Bastard!
Zhou Yao had already turned back and returned as he said, “I have already gotten the chip. We can leave now.”
He took large strides as he headed over to the study room.
At this moment, even if Leng Zhiyuan had a thousand grievances towards him, she could not mention them here. She could only take it out on him when they got outside, so she parted her legs as she followed behind him.
She just stepped into the study room and saw Zhou Yao stop in his tracks in front of her. He turned his back to her as he made a gesture for her to stop.
She stopped.
At this moment, Zhou Yao used one long arm to pin her slim waist down, and she was immediately pushed down against the desk.
