Chapter 1055 C - Minus
Emotions had no place in this kind of missions. For Lu Zihao, it was very easy, but obviously that wasn’t the case for his brother-in-law. Even though Jin Liwei was doing an excellent job in pretending to be unconscious, Lu Zihao could still see the stiffness in the man’s body and the violent throbbing of his veins which indicated that his endurance was almost reaching its limit.
Lu Zihao watched everything that was happening inside the hotel bedroom with a dispassionate expression. Deep inside, however, anger and disgust were quickly filling him. He recognized that some of these emotions weren’t completely his own.
The original Lu Zihao’s remnant couldn’t help but react negatively at witnessing his third brother subjecting himself to such a deplorable situation. Fortunately, the remnant kept silent and didn’t cause any fuss, probably because it didn’t want to distract Nikolai while he was hanging on the wall with a sixteen storeys high drop.
Nevertheless, he could still feel the remnant’s negative emotions inside him even though it chose to remain silent. He could blame the remnant as the cause of all the emotions he was feeling but he knew that wasn’t the case. A portion of the emotions was his own, he admitted to himself.
Jin Liwei was his brother-in-law after all. It would be a lie if Lu Zihao said that he didn’t care about the man. On the contrary, he indeed cared about Jin Liwei. He wasn’t going to tell the man about it, though.
If given the chance, he would actually offer to exchange places with Jin Liwei tonight. Unfortunately, the plan wouldn’t work that way. Rose Young, the nympho, only wanted Jin Liwei.
It was too bad. Things would be easier if Lu Zihao was playing the main role in tonight’s mission. He was trained for this kind of things. An expert. Jin Liwei was not.
Even if a slut like Rose Young actually managed to lay his hands on Lu Zihao, he would still be able to shut down his emotions in order to ensure the successful completion of the mission. Lu Zihao was sure of it.
Then an image of a blushing, prim and proper, petite woman appeared in his mind all of a sudden. Accompanying her was an almost overwhelming sense of rejection at the idea of allowing another woman touch his body in a sexual way.
He was so taken aback by the image and the accompanying feeling that he almost fell down from his perch on the narrow ledge.
’Godammit, Long Jinjing!’ he swore inside his head as he secured his hanging position on the wall.
Lu Zihao forced himself to focus on the present and not on the woman who kept on intruding in his mind in the most inopportune time which was basically almost the entire day, every day, since they broke up.
’Fuck. Get out of my mind, woman!’
The image of Long Jinjing in his mind, however, didn’t listen. Instead, she gave him a shy smile, blushing in that usual way of hers which never failed to seduce him.
"Shit," he muttered under his breath.
His mind was once again filled with Miss Prim and Proper Long Jinjing that he almost missed the perfect moment to signal Jin Liwei. Fortunately, he still had some wits remaining about him and managed to spot the perfect moment when Rose Young moved in a good position over Jin Liwei.
"Now!"
Jin Liwei, who had been pretending to be unconscious all this time, finally opened his eyes and kicked Rose Young’s neck. The stunned Rose Young wasn’t able to react in time before she was thrown off the bed and fell hard to the floor.
There was dull thud followed by the soft sound of breaking glass. Then the window was forced open and a large, shadowy figure jumped in and flashed in front of Rose Young, frightening her so much that she opened her mouth to scream.
Before she could do so, however, the large, shadowy figure hit her solar plexus, knocking out her breath, then her consciousness.
Neither man caught her when she banged her head to the floor with a cringeworthy sound and fainted.
"Hah..." Jin Liwei pulled at the handcuffs, his expression ugly.
He was soaked in his own sweat but that wasn’t his main concern. His eyes dripped venom as he looked at the unconsciousness Rose Young splayed naked on the floor. Bile rose in his throat as her disgusting scent remained in his nose. It felt like there were hundreds of spiders crawling on his skin from where her fingers touched his face, neck and upper body.
"C-minus for lack of accuracy." Lu Zihao easily unlocked the handcuffs with a small wire that popped out of his wristwatch.
Jin Liwei grabbed his hand and used it to pull himself off the bed. He still felt shaky from the remaining effects of the aphrodisiac in his body. The antidote that Lu Zihao gave him was unable to completely neutralize the drug that Rose Young had her minion put in his drink.
"My bad," he said. "My senses still feel dull and I wasn’t able to make her unconscious with a single hit."
Lu Zihao grunted in response. He glanced down at the naked woman lying by their feet. "We’re not done here yet. I still need you to draw out the best acting skills that you can muster."
"En." Jin Liwei was obviously unwilling but he still agreed.
