Phoenix's fated half

Because of her ancestors, Mi Rong’s lineage has been cursed. She was born a princess, but neither was she saved from it. Like a ripple effect, her family line must atone for their actions. On every 100th full moon, a candidate is chosen to finish a mission. Being the chosen one, Mi Rong must finish her task sent by the heavens. She was sent to modern time with a sidekick wolf that had many hidden secrets beneath his paws. He was one of a kind, a spiritual beast from way before Mi Rong was born. As Mi Rong works her way in this modern world, she crosses path with a cold-hearted young man, Feng Jun Kai. Jun Kai was once a well-known superstar but abruptly retired when he had lost his wife in an accident, leaving his heart shut away from others. What was thought to be an accident turned out to be an intentional act by someone behind the scenes. Henceforth, he seeks for the culprit that lurks in the darkness. He returns back to his family business roots where he returns as the infamous young master Feng. Mi Rong’s only clue to her mission was to find a spellbook. While searching she establishes a company, the Xuan Group, selling ancient goods which later becomes one of the most influential underdogs in the business world. The group became known to the world, but very little was known of them, especially the mysterious leader of the pack. As Jun Kai seeks for his answers and Mi Rong goes through her trial in the open, an undercurrent stirs roughly beneath them. Although two with different goals, both collide in the same paths as the string of fate leads them to meet. Entering his cold rigid heart was as dimmed as the dark side of the moon, but an ending to the twisted connection had to be made. In the end, what was to come all fell on her choices... ... Jun Kai did not let her run away from him any longer and forcefully pulled her in. His hands then quickly pulled the mask away from her face. Mi Rong was not ready for Jun Kai's sudden move and was unable to stop him. The black cloth that was wrapped around as her mask was pulled off, revealing her face beneath it. The cloth flew away along with the wind. Jun Kai's eyes widened. It was a blow to Jun Kai. He was taken aback with shock. Different kinds of emotion were rushing inside him. It was stirring up all at once like a hurricane. No words could describe how he was feeling. His hand slowly reached out to the face he had known all along, "Why?" Jun Kai's voice began choking up and could speak no more. It was her all along?

Wounded

Bang! Bang!

The sound of the gunshot was loud and echoed across the streets. Everything became quiet and only the sounds of breathing from everyone was audible.

Unexpectedly, seconds before the shot, Jun Kai used a smoke bomb and astonishingly disappeared with the smoke. The area became misty like a spooky movie. The moon did not rise like it was supposed to but was covered by the clouds in the dark sky. The lamp posts had long been broken to cover Feng Min's act. Now, all was left was silence.

Everyone tried looking everywhere for Jun Kai. The men that Feng Min told to charge forth had all stopped in tracks to see if Jun Kai was really shot. If so, they would have some hope to run away. On the other hand, Jun Kai's men were quite confident in their hearts that their boss would be able to handle those two shots.

Feng Min stood thunderstruck while holding his gun in mid-air. He hadn't calculated that Jun Kai would have a smoke bomb and would use it to vanish.

Then, out of nowhere a black figure flew out from the mist and kicked Feng Min directly on his chest. Everyone was stunned as it had happened too fast. Jun Kai made a few other moves on Feng Min until Feng Min could hardly pull himself out of unconscious.

Feng Min was weakly lying on the floor. He was badly wounded from Jun Kai's sudden attack and was about to vomit blood out but had been suspending it in.

Everyone else gasped. While Jun Kai had been striking, they weren't even able to clearly see Jun Kai's move on Feng Min. Everyone now knew what it was really like if Jun Kai personally strikes back. He was merciless. Deep down, they knew that if it hadn't been for the chairman (aka Jun Kai's and Feng Min's grandfather) Feng Min would've been in a much awful condition.

Once Jun Kai was done with Feng Min, he looked up towards Feng Min's men. They all shivered and was trying to control themselves as much as they could.

Jun Kai smirked and slowly said, "I think it's time you all go back."

The men were all relieved as they had thought that they wouldn't be able to get away with it. All of them hurriedly packed their things and was about to leave when, "Also, I'll wait upon all your resignation letter on my desk. The chairman would really be happy with it."

This. They could only cry in their hearts. Although they worked for Feng Min, the highest person was still the chairman. Moreover, if the chairman knew about it they wouldn't be left unscarred.

"Jun Kai, you dare!" Feng Min couldn't tolerate any more and raggedly cried out.

"Tut tut, it might be time for you to wake up. Truly a waste for Grandpa."

"You!"

However, Jun Kai had already turned around and was walking back to his car. All these years, Feng Min knew that their Grandfather had actually liked Jun Kai more as he was a rare talent. However, this time he had come to revenge for Fei Ling's death. He had secretly loved Fei Ling but had to give her up to Jun Kai, but this guy couldn't even protect her. He was truly mad.

Feng Min laughed out crazily with a hoarse voice "Ha ha, Jun Kai you're only good at saving your own ass! You couldn't even save Ling er!" As Feng Min spoke, there was a trace of sadness in his voice and a tear ran down on his face.

Jun Kai abruptly stopped in his track. His hand was on his car door, but he did not get in.

Fei Ling.

Feng Min added, "Hmph! Jun Kai, you're truly unfit for her!"

Jun Kai did not reply back.

In the past, both Jun Kai and he had been close, but when Fei Ling had come into their lives, everything changed. For Fei Ling's sake, he was the one to back down. He had tried pursuing her, but she had fallen for this cousin of his. During all this time, he had been watching her from afar.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a bullet flew directly towards Jun Kai's left chest. Jun Kai had heard the change of wind direction and could feel something coming towards him; however, he was still frozen on spot. It was at that moment that he thought that he was truly useless. He had all the resources but couldn't even protect his woman. He tiredly stood there.

Feng Min saw the bullet coming, but he only tiredly closed his eyes like he didn't see anything. Sigh. All these years have really been tiring.

However, before the bullet could hit Jun Kai's heart, someone had pulled Jun Kai sideways. Instead of hitting Jun Kai's heart, the bullet had hit straight into his right arm. It was Xue Li who had ran out from her car and pulled Jun Kai away from death's door.

Blood kept running out from the wound. Xue Li busily took off her jacket and tied it tightly on Jun Kai's wound to stop it from any excessive bleeding. Nevertheless, Jun Kai was unresponsive and only sat down. He didn't even cry out from the pain or showed any signs of being in pain. Both his feelings and body were numb.

"Jun Kai, Jun Kai." Xue Li lightly patted on Jun Kai's face to wake him up, but he was still unresponsive. Xue Li asked him several questions but he continued to not respond or say anything back. He tiredly looked ahead without any goals.

Not until Lin Cheng who had just arrived on the scene ran to support his boss. He squatted down near Jun Kai and said, "Boss, you'll need treatment."

No response.

Lin Cheng encourages further, "Boss, please think of the young miss."

When his daughter was brought up, he finally woke up. He was able to gradually compose himself and lightly said, "Qing Qing."

"Yes, boss."

Jun Kai looked up, "How is she?"

Respectfully Lin Cheng replied, "Young Miss, just went to bed, sir."

"Take me to see her." Jun Kai reached his good arm out for support from Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng responded attentively as his boss was still injured, "Yes sir."

Xue Li who had been left aside was now clenching her fist tightly. It was her chance to appeal herself to Jun Kai, but he didn't even notice on her! She wanted to scream as she watched Jun Kai walking away, leaving her behind.

Before Jun Kai left the scene, he didn't forget to remind his good cousin of his, "Remember what grandmother has told us. Also, even if I couldn't save Fei Ling, but you have no right to speak about it. Where were you when everything happened? Drinking your heart out I suppose. This time I will leave you be, but don't let there be another time." Jun Kai spoke with his back to Feng Min. It must have been his longest sentence he had spoken to Feng Min.

Feng Min shouted his anger, "You know fair well why I'm like this!?"

Jun Kai halted, "No, you chose to be like that." He then left with Lin Cheng supporting him to the car.

Feng Min cried out sorrowfully.

Hi guys,

A little late, but here you go! Hope you enjoyed it and thank you for all your support!
