The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel's Disguise-Chapter 83 Get Back To Work
If Ru would have known what conversation was going on between Qin Qu and Xiao Zhi Ren, she might have puked blood. But not before making those two men cough their guts out.
Wait!
No, no...
Before kicking their butts, she would have definitely asked, "What does ’hide my sausage’ means?"
After all, she was still oblivious to physical intimacy. For her, it was a very foreign and detestable thing. Yes, detestable! The idea of merely hugging with clothes seemed cringy to her how could she not find physical intimacy as detestable?
But fortunately, young master Ru was completely oblivious to this conversation. She languidly completed her shower and picked up a book to read with a cup of piping hot tea.
The very next day, young master Ru made a visit to Knight Medical Sciences Research Facility.
"Welcome, Mr. Knight," Charles, the head of the research facility greeted her politely. His manner was neither obsequious nor domineering. In his advanced age, he had great respect for his employer but only because, in his opinion, Lord Alev Knight was a man deserving of his status. For him, his employer was a just person but people only had the wrong idea about ’him’.
"Hi, Charles!" Ru said back gleefully.
Her cheery tone caught Charles off guard, he was taken aback. But with his experienced personality, he didn’t say anything unnecessary.
Ru took a seat in Charles’ office and gave her orders, "Release an official statement to deny all the rumors going around."
"But didn’t you asked for those rumors to exist in the first place?"
"I did. And now, I want them to be gone. Before we get into unnecessary trouble, just hold a press conference and clear it up." Ru didn’t bother explaining herself.
And she didn’t need to as well. Charles agreed to do so since he was aware of one thing, Alev Knight always had a reason behind his every action and every single word. Soon enough, an official announcement was made to deny all the rumors straightforwardly without leaving any room for discussion.
There were a few issues that required her attention which delayed her return and it took her about a week to settle everything since she unexpectedly had to make a short trip to Zurich as well.
As the matters settled, Ru took a flight back to Imperial Capital where Wu Dishi was waiting for her already. Seeing him, her first words were, "Gather the Black Mist members."
Wu Dishi immediately followed the orders and then drove her straight towards the outskirts of the city. The seemingly ordinary wooden house in the mountains had currently five people standing upright in the courtyard.
"What do you think is going on?" The youngest of the group Jack questioned softly as if someone was keeping a watch over him. It wasn’t his fault for being cautious, he always thought that his master was like a ghost that could be anywhere, anytime.
"If we knew, we wouldn’t be feeling so nervous right now," Adia answered his stupid question with slight irritation. f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂
"Master should rest after the long flight, why is he coming to take our class?" Jack made a pitiful face as if he was being wronged. "Do you think master knows that I spent the last week playing games?" f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m
"Have you ever seen master resting?" The most uptight person of the group, Connor voiced out his thoughts.
Jack thought about it for a second and realized that indeed, he rarely had seen his master resting.
"Also, have you ever seen anything staying hidden from the master? It’s a given that he knows about your gaming obsession." Connor’s words made Jack’s heart leap up to his throat. He felt suffocated all of a sudden.
As a limited edition Rolls Royce parked in the outer courtyard, the five of them stiffened up like a pole. Beads of perspiration could be seen on their faces. These sudden calls for meetings never ended well. None of them even dared to breathe loudly.
Ru alighted from the car and took long but steady strides towards them.
"Have you had enough fun while I was gone?" Ru’s voice was calm as the morning serenity and yet it sent chills down their spine.
Frightened, none of them dared to lift their heads. "If you did then it’s time to get back to work."
"Yes, master!" They echoed in sync.
After that, all of them settled around a table and discussed the next course of action.
