The moon is dark. The lights on the city looks dazzling from the highest floor of the biggest company in the city.
while Zao Liying is examining the proposal of Z-ang estates company, his assistant knocked twice and then entered the office
Zao Liying lifted his head and placed the proposal beside.
"Any news about the T-ang Company that I've told you to investigate?" Zao Liying asked straightly.
Assistant Chen cleared his throat before answering.
"Not much, I found out due to my resources that the CEO of Z-ang Estate Company, Zang Yifao really have different intentions." He answered.
Zao Liying massaged his temple from the answer of Chen.
"Hey, What kind of information is that? Where did your resources came from?!" Zao Liying asked irritated.
Assistant Chen smiled half heartedly.
"Yah know bro... My work is just too tiring. I have a lot of works to do. I don't have much time to seek for informations. If you really thinks that Z-ang Estate Company is unreliable... just put them down. for me, Mr. Zang is really a dirty old man but, I don't have much time to deal with him. so please, do it yourself." Chen stated without stopping.
"So do I? tell me, chen, are you really my assistant?" Zao Liying gritted his teeth.
"No! I'm your cousin!" He frowned.
"you're fired." Zao Liying stated and continued examining the papers.
Chen's eyes widened.
"hehe! I'm just kidding. don't worry. I will do my best, boss!" Chen immediately stormed out of the CEO's Office.
"tsk. "

At the same time at the woods that is faraway from the city..
Two women on white dresses are running. the woman with a white hair is chasing the other one with a red hair.
They moved too fast like a wind.
suddenly, the woman with a red hair stopped which makes the one chasing her stopped too.
"LiXie! You kid! Can you go back now? I'm so tired of chasing you." The woman with white hair stated.
Lixie chuckled.
"You know, sister. I wondered what the city looks like." Lixie said and turned to her sister.
LiXia looks shocked when she heards Lixie's words.
"Hey! you are not allowed to go there. We must remained in the palace. The humans out there are dangerous. Mother and Father will get angry if they heard you say that." LiXia stated and takes one step towards LiXie. But LiXie immediately stepped backwards. She smiled which makes LiXia felt goosebumps.
"Hey LiXie, what are you planning to do?" LiXia nervously asked.
"don't worry, I'll be back. " LiXie said calmly with a big smile plastered on her face.
Before LiXia can take a move to stop her. LiXie immediately vanished from the thin air.
"*sigh*, no one can really stop you. *sigh*, now I need to inform mother and father." LiXia sighed and quickly returned to the palace to inform the disappearance of LiXie.

Meanwhile..
LiXie's eyes twinkled as she reached the city. many passerby is looking at her with a weird look.
She walked on the road without minding the cars, instead, she looks at the moving cars passing by her with full of admirations. while the people around her is already shouting.
"Hey Miss! Are you trying to kill yourself?! "
"That's dangerous! "
"Is she crazy?! "
"Where's the police?! That woman is trying to kill herself!"
"hey miss! we will help you! everything will be alright!"
people shouted which makes LiXie raised her eyebrows. what are they talking about? I'm not crazy! tsk!
"AAAAAHHH!!/Watchout!! " the people shouted when a red car with a high speed is now coming to LiXie.
LiXie covered her eyes when the car's light is directed to her.
there's a loud screech heard before her.
the man driving the red car immediately goes out and grabbed her arms and pulled her inside the car. The man immediately drove his car with LiXie.
after a while... the man parked his car. LiXie is looking at him weirdly but she remains smiling.
"Hi! "she greeted.
Zao Liyin looks at her intently.
"how much do you need?" he asked.
the outdated Lixie. "huh? "
"i said, how much money do you need to keep your mouth shut? " Zao Liying gritted his teeth.
LiXie is confused as she ask. "what is money? Is that a food? ohhh if it is a delicious food, then, i want tons of it!"
