Xiao Mei brought A Miao back to her villa.

"Tell me the password, and my people will get it."

A Miao kept a straight face and said, "What if you should lie to me? I am all alone by myself, and even Little Demon didn't come with me. If you take the treasures without telling me where Shen Xinglan is, I can do nothing but watch you go."

Xiao Mei poured two cups of wine. But before she handed one to A Miao, she took it back.

"I forgot that you are pregnant and can't drink." She shook the glass. "How about this? When my people arrive at the villa, you can tell me all the password digits but the last one. And before you give me the last digit and get out, I will tell you where Shen Xinglan is."

"What if you don't let me go?" A Miao asked her with suspicion.

Xiao Mei smiled. "What I want is the bronze mirror and jade pendant. It's useless for me to kill you. Moreover... Shen Xinglan does not love you now, which makes it even more pointless to do that."

Sadness and anger flashed across A Miao's face. She heavily nodded. "Alright!"

Xiao Mei's people went to Shen Xinglan's villa to find the safe. A Miao sat on the sofa, staring at the woman on the opposite.

"Why are you always looking at me?" Xiao Mei calmly asked A Miao, trying to cover up the excitement in her eyes.

"I am just curious why you have to get the bronze mirror and jade pendant." A Miao frowned. "Those are just some stuff passed down from old generations. You needn't have to go to these lengths even if they ARE valuable antiques."

Xiao Mei sneered at her. "You know nothing! Those are great ancient legacy."

"Then it gets even stranger." A Miao looked her straight in the face. "Why are you the only one who knows? Shen Xinglan and Jiang Hua said nothing about the bronze mirror and jade pendant."

"It has nothing to do with you." Xiao Mei leaned against the sofa. "Whatever. You don't have them."

A Miao also smiled. "Do you really think I am stupid? Why did my photos appear in that laboratory if it has nothing to do with me? Don't you know that boy who attacked Shen Xinglan? Or.. are you working for him?"

"Ha!" Xiao Mei said sarcastically. "Do you believe anyone can give orders to my family? We are just cooperative partners."

"How dare you should rob things from Shen Xinglan with others." A Miao satirized her. "Don't you like him? He will hate you for doing this."

Xiao Mei raised her glass and said, "You may rest assured. It won't be long before he's only in love with me."

"What on earth do you want to do?" A Miao asked her curiously, "are those things really some kind of treasures?"

"They are more than that!" Xiao Mei suddenly stopped and waved her hands, thinking she was saying too much. "Why do you ask so many questions? It's none of your business."

Xiao Mei's cell phone rang while she was speaking. She picked it up, listened to a few words and gave a satisfied smile. "Alright, you did give us the right site. They have found the safe and you should tell me the password."


"Nine..." said A Miao slowly.

The smile on Xiao Mei's face grew bigger. She was thrilled every time when she heard the correct sound ringing from her subordinates pressing down each button.

"One, two—one, six..." A Miao suddenly stopped.

Xiao Mei, who was immersed in her treasure fantasy, shot A Miao a glare. "Why stop?"

"According to our pact, you should first tell me where Shen Xinglan is."

Not until that moment did Xiao Mei find the password was almost to the end. When she was about to give A Miao a random hotel name with an impassive face, Xiao Mei heard some strange sounds from the other side pass and then just silence.

"What happened?" She questioned in a hurry.

Nothing but silence came from the other side.

"What's wrong? Tell me!"

Suddenly, a noise came from the outside. Xiao Mei raised up her head. But before she found out what was going on, the wine glass beside her broke into pieces after a shot.

"Be careful!" A bodyguard pounced up to protect her.

The sound of heavy gunfire followed immediately. Xiao Mei hardly dared to move under the sofa. The thunder of the guns gradually stopped two minutes later. Then Xiao Mei hurriedly stood up at the first time to find A Miao. If would be big trouble if A Miao died.

However...

"Shen Xinglan?" she stared at the man standing beside A Miao, looking incredibly shocked.

A Miao was protected in the man's arms, smiling to Xiao Mei with her head out.

"You..." Xiao Mei was shocked and realized all the truth suddenly. "You guys were messing with me?"

A Miao blinked her eyes innocently. "Isn't that what you want? Posting those fake photos on the news to play me and Shen Xinglan against each other, and then tricking me into willingly giving you the bronze mirror and jade pendant."

"Hehe! I have been playing your game all the time!" A Miao poked Shen Xinglan. "Who knew he'd come back to his senses and find me!"

Shen Xinglan was highly nervous for a long time and even the knuckles of his hands turned white on A Miao's waist. He felt relaxed while listening to the words from his honey. The previous tension was suddenly eased a bit.

"You son of a bitch!" Xiao Mei wanted to rush at them but was caught in the arm by Shen I and Little Demon.

Shen Xinglan glared at her coldly. "I have told you don't challenge my patience. Do you seriously believe that I can't kill you?"

Bang! Little Demon's shot grazed Xiao Mei's arm.

"Ah!" Xiao Mei covered her bloody arm. "How dare you! Xiao family won't let you go."

Shen Xinglan looked at her as if watching an idiot. "What the hell is Xiao family? Do you really believe that they will offend all the killers for you? If they dare, then they shall prepare for endless revenge."

"Don't try to scare me." Xiao Mei tried to stomach the pain. "If you dare to kill me, you won't wait until now!!!"

Little Demon took back her gun. She had already injured the other arm of Xiao Mei.

"Believe it or not, the next bullet will be right through your body." Shen Xinglan held A Miao tightly and stepped back, protecting her from potential blood splashes.

Xiao Mei collapsed onto the floor. She had never been through such kind of things since she was born, and she clearly got the information from Shen Xinglan's eyes that he would kill her if she still refused to cooperate.

"What do you want..." Xiao Mei asked, lowering her head.

Now she could only wait for Jiang Quanyu, hoping some escaped bodyguards could bring the message to him.

"Little Demon, send A Miao back." Shen Xinglan carefully stared at the woman in his arms. A Miao immediately raised her head, showing him a smiley face.

Worried that later everything would get ugly and scare her, Shen Xinglan stroked her head lightly. "Have a good sleep. You have been working on it for the whole afternoon."

"Be careful!" A Miao understood it was useless for her to stay here and followed Little Demon obediently.

Until A Miao left, Shen Xinglan walked to Xiao Mei slowly.

"You can tell me yourself, or I can force it out."

Xiao Mei looked up at him in panic.

"A Miao!" Song Baohua greeted her in a hurry. "Just now some people breaking in almost frightened me to death. Luckily, Shen II let us hide in the basement."

Little Demon helped A Miao and said, "Aunt Song, let Miss relax upstairs first."

"Right! Go upstairs!" Song Baohua patted her leg. "I am going to bring soup to you."

A Miao changed her clothes and lay in bed, sighing with relief.

"Miss, your muscles are stiff. You will be painful tomorrow." Little Demon kneaded her legs and added, "Can't believe you're also nervous. Seeing that you play well, I think you are not afraid at all!"

"I am so scared!" A Miao patted her chest. " It's all right without looking at Xiao Mei's eyes, otherwise I felt nervous."

Little Demon looked at A Miao in awe as if she had done something remarkable. "That's also amazing! I would have bought it if I hadn't known anything."

"What are you doing?" Song Baohua came in with a bowl of chicken soup. "I notice many people are surrounding a villa over there. What happened?"

A Miao took a sip of the soup. She couldn't afford to be starved.

"It's okay, Auntie Song. It's none of our business. Remember not to go out."

A Miao yawned.

Song Baohua saw her yawning and nagged her to sleep. A Miao soonly fell asleep in a few minutes, and Little Demon stayed aside to protect her. Song Baohua went downstairs to take some iced mung bean soup for Little Demon to clear the heat in her body.

"I will make you some fruit slices after you drink the soup." Song Baohua saw her drinking and continued, "You've worked hard to protect A Miao. You've done a good job at such a young age!"

Little Demon nodded seriously. "I can't protect Miss if I am not good."

"Hehe! What a sensible young girl!" Song Baohua closed the door and went downstairs.

Little Demon sat on the sofa and stared at A Miao lying in bed. Suddenly, her body quivered and everything turned into a blur.

"Damn..." Little Demon dropped on the ground without finishing the words.

Before she fell into a coma, Little Demon noticed that someone opened the door and entered.

Xiao Mei was tied up and hung upside down from the stairs by Shen I. Beneath her, it was a floor of broken glasses.

"This rope is weak. I don't how long it can last!" Shen I lightly rubbed the rope with a knife on the second floor. "You will land on your face if you fall off."

Looking at the glasses with a pale face, Xiao Mei gritted her teeth and asked Shen Xinglan.

"How can you let me go..."

Shen Xinglan watched her on the sofa. "Tell me everything you know."

"I do not know anything!"

The rope suddenly turned a bit loose, for Shen I cut off one ply of the rope.

"No!" Xiao Mei screamed. "I'll tell! I'll tell!"

Shen Xinglan asked her again, "Who attacked us? Why did he have A Miao's photos in his laboratory?"

"I only know the secret of the bronze mirror and jade pendant. I don't know anything else at all!"

"Speak."

"The bronze mirror and jade pendant are the maps," Xiao Mei told him unwillingly, "maps of a treasure."

Shen Xinglan was not surprised at all. Her words only comfirmed their prediction. However...

"What's the relationship between A Miao and the bronze mirror and jade pendant?" He cared more about this than anything else.

Xiao Mei shook her head and answered, "I don't know. I only heard off that no one can open that treasure except her."

"Who told you this?" Shen Xinglan frowned. "Was that the person who attacked us at the laboratory?"

"I... I don't know..." Xiao Mei burst into tears. "I really don't know. I haven't seen him before!"

Shen I was about to cut off another ply while noticing Shen II and Little Demon enter in haste.

"Boss..." Little Demon went straight to Shen Xinglan and kneeled on the ground. "Miss... Miss disappeared."
