Chapter 381: Daisy Pendant (1)

Rong Yan smirked suavely while Jiang Peihua hurried into the kitchen to get busy before Jiang Peihua even answered.
Old Mr. Rong was in the study on the second floor when he heard the news of their return. He made his way downstairs joyfully and asked, “Are the rascal and Lass Anning home?”
“Grandpa.”
“Grandpa.”
Old Mr. Rong sat on the couch and gestured for them to take a seat too. He grabbed the warm tea served by Butler Zhang and took a sip before asking, “Why are you guys home so late today? Are things very busy at the office?”
Luo Anning was about to say no when Rong Yan beat her to it. “We’re not that busy with work but for the sake of fulfilling your wishes, Anning and I have been working hard all day.”
Upon hearing his words, Old Mr. Rong’s glassy eyes lit up and he chuckled joyously. “Kid, are you telling the truth? You’re not lying to me, are you?”
Rong Yan smiled ambiguously and caressed her flat stomach. “Must I lie to you?”
“You guys!?!” Seeing Rong Yan’s actions, Old Mr. Rong paused and asked, “Are you… expecting?”
Luo Anning began coughing.
Rong Yan gently patted her back to give her some relief while staring at the elated Old Mr. Rong. He teased, “Grandpa, you’re too eager. We’ve just started planting, and you already want to harvest …”
“Okay, okay… I’m too eager and impatient,” Old Mr. Rong said before beckoning for Butler Zhang to go to the kitchen and bring some soup for Luo Anning.
Before dinner started, Rong Yan switched on the television out of boredom in a bid to kill some time.
As soon as the television was switched on, they happened to see a piece of news about a wanted fugitive, that was being aired on a Russian international news channel.
“We’re broadcasting an urgent search warrant for a wanted fugitive: Recently, our politicians have been frequently assassinated. On September 18, 20XX, at 2:45AM Russian time, politician Medev was assassinated in his villa by two hitmen who are still at large. The Chinese government offers a special reward of US$50 million for the arrest of the fugitives. The following are the physical characteristics of the two fugitives… ”
Such news was not unprecedented or uncommon. Hence, Luo Anning did not pay much attention to it. When the assassins’ build appeared on the TV screen, one tall and one short, and were apparently in the form of a man and a woman, she was absolutely horrified, especially because of the daisy pendant left on the window of the villa!
She had seen such white daisies before. When she stayed at Kristen’s apartment back then, there would be fresh daisies on the coffee table in the living room everyday.
Back then, she wondered, of all flowers, why daisies?
Kristen explained that daisies complemented the style of his apartment …
At that time, the incredibly expensive diamond necklace that Kristen gifted her, which also infuriated Rong Yan, was in the shape of a daisy, she would never forget it.
If she guessed correctly, the fugitives should be Kristen and Catherine!
Despite having guessed that they had special professions since a long time ago, she did not expect them to be assassins!
Her heart began to pound rapidly. Both Catherine and Kristen had saved her before and after all that time she had spent with them, she already subconsciously regarded them as her closest friends.
She could not help but tense up after seeing the piece of international news.
“Anning, what’s the matter with you? Why is your face so pale?” Rong Yan asked worriedly.
