Without further ado, let's get on with Chapter 26!

Chapter 26: Mastermind Dramatic as it is, the two lovers (Su Yue and Ming Xuan) remind me of star-crossed lovers like the Tanabata Festival in j.a.pan where the lovers can't meet but once in a year on the 7th day of the 7th month.

While sitting in a parked car in front of the doorstep of her villa, the man was suddenly immersed in his own bliss. And, it wasn't until the car door opened and she got out, with the sun s.h.i.+ning down on the crown of her head, that his reverie was broken.

It wasn't quite noon yet, and this beautiful day had only just began, how could he have said to his lady 'See you tomorrow'?

Then again, he lifted his head and glanced at the villa next door; even though he was a little frustrated, it was enough to suppress a heart that was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with happiness.

Based on Jin'er's temperament, for her to articulate those words, it really goes without saying that she had been moved by him. As for the rest…. He could take it slow. After all, he had waited all these years, how could he begrudge waiting a little more?

However, the issue of finding the mastermind behind this whole debacle, he would have to look into it rather closely.

Just as he opened the door, a car came to a stop behind him.

"Boss!" A slightly rough and boorish male voice called out from inside the car, then a man wearing black rimmed costume gla.s.ses got out.

He looked to be around thirty years old, wearing a nondescript black suit. His features were regular but he had a pair of narrow eyes. They gleamed with astuteness, shrewd and incisive, carrying an aura of someone who wasn't easy to get along with.

There was hardly a match between his rough boorish voice and his looks.

"Xiao An'zi has arrived." Lu Xi jovially gave him a smile.

Qin An raised his brows slightly. He did not mind how Lu Xi had addressed him because after all, he had been Lu Xi's a.s.sistant for a long time and their relations.h.i.+p was rather good. So the occasional teasing banter was nothing to speak off, however, the young master seemed like he was in a good mood today?

Most outsiders would say that of the two Lu Family's sons, the first son Lu Jing was quiet and cold as ice while the second son Lu Xi was mild and gentle as jade. However, only those who had been with them and dealt with them for a long time would know that these two were very capable of masking their feelings, be it joy or fury. They were lords at suppressing all their emotions deep down.

This could be especially said of this second young master. His pair of eyes seemed to be able to hide and mislead all at once, and even with a smile, one would not be able to decipher nor see through it's hidden meaning.

Just like today, those peach blossom eyes carried a bright gleam of happiness, and for it to be expressed without any subterfuge, this truly was rather rare. At most, he could say that he had only seen it once, yet he had not asked the reason behind it. Even the time when he had reported that ‘Heart-pounding Excitement' had broken the box office record in its first week of airing, even then, he had not seen him this happy.

"Boss, is it some special occasion today?" he teasingly probed.

"Yes indeed." Lu Xi laughed as he replied, yet he was not forthcoming to further elaborate. Rather, he drew this arms to his chest and rubbed his chin, "move the computer into the study on the second floor."

Seeing that he wasn't going to elaborate further, Qin An could only retract his curiosity, and he shrugged with a reply, "understood." He went to the trunk of the car and began to move the things.

He had personally bought this house and had done the preliminary inspection, so he was familiar with the layout of the place.

When he finally came downstairs panting and slightly out of breath from the second floor, he saw that young master Lu had already settled on the couch with a cup of tea.

"Hey." Lu Xi looked up to see his a.s.sistant had collapsed on the couch panting and gasping for breathe. He said in disdain, "you're so weak, it's about time for you to start exercising."

Qin An was speechless.

Have you ever seen an a.s.sistant being used as manual labour?!

After all, wasn't he a learned and cultured person?

Although… he would also wish to become like those men with their six-pack abs…

Qin An was the elite and multifaceted a.s.sistant, who was renowned in all of Sheng Ming Productions, and whose widely spread nicknames were 'Lethal Tongue' and 'Steel Rooster'. Yet, after he ground his teeth for a long time, he could only sigh and lament at dealing with his boss' disdain, "Boss…"

Lu Xi raised his brow.

"How can you find a girlfriend when you behave like that…"

"There's no need." Lu Xi turned his right hand around, and brought the teapot that he had intended to pour tea out for him back in front of himself. Without any change to his expression, he proceeded to fill his own cup up to seventy percent before directing a smile at Qin An, "I've already got a fiance."

Qin An was utterly dumbfounded, but then he recollected himself and poured himself a cup of tea before rigidly changing the topic.

"Boss, do we have any new projects in the pipeline?"

The splendorous achievements of ‘Heart-pounding Excitement' had become a thing of the past and now, they had to come up with new successes.

Hearing him broach the subject of work, Lu Xi organised his thoughts and nodded. Seeing his nod, Qin An s.h.i.+fted his disposition and sat upright, his narrowed eyes beginning to brighten.

In this villa, two people were discussing work, and in the other, Su Jin was holding her new phone and making a call.

On the other end of the line was Ming Xuan. Although Lu Xi had said he would think of a solution, still she had to discuss it first with Ming Xuan. It would not do for her to get engaged to Shen Anyan before all of the efforts to find Ming Xuan's brother were exhausted, right?

When the call was connected, "Ming Xuan jie," Su jin spoke up and asked, "how much have matters progressed in regards to you and Shen Anyan?"

Ming Xuan was surprised by Su Jin's random questioning and took a moment to react.

"Shen Anyan and I…" She paused midway, "Initially before we first met, Dad had already told me his decision. But it has not been made known." Sighing, she continued softly, "Xiao Jin, he can't be found…."

"Ming Xuan jiejie!" Su Jin interrupted her and earnestly spoke, "we have not reached the final second yet. Are you really going to go through with this willingly?"

"I…." Ming Xuan bit her lips, but she did not know what else she should say or what she could say.

"If you marry Shen Anyan and look on helplessly while my brother marries someone else, then henceforth, other than being business partners or compet.i.tors, there can be no other relations between the two of you anymore." Su Jin gentled her voice and spoke softly.

This was the original outcome in the novel.

Shen Anyan was the chosen person by the Ming family's patriarch so there was no doubt of his capabilities. However, Ming Xuan and his relations.h.i.+p was that of a mutually respectful couple whilst maintaining a loving facade.

Her heart belonged to someone else and his was cold and remote.

Chen Feifei had fallen in love with Su Yue, but Su Yue treated her well out of a guilty conscience.

This pair of lovers could only land at such a conundrum.

Ming Xuan was somewhat despondent, he… To marry someone else and to then be in marital harmony, loving affections and lingering tenderness?

Her heart experienced a sharp piercing pain.

"The Ming Xuan Jiejie that I know is strong, resolute and daring, beautiful and proud. So for yourself and for my brother," Su Jin adamantly said, "Ming Xuan Jiejie, not until the last second (not until the fat lady sings) must you absolutely not compromise."

Strong, resolute and daring, beautiful and proud.

After hearing Su Jin's entreaty, Ming Xuan's lips lifted into a smile and her heart heaved a sigh of relief. To hold steadfast until the last second, hadn't she once thought to do just that, so she had looked up countless private investigators. At that time, she was filled with hope. But eventually, it had all turned into a mult.i.tude of disappointment.

However, since this young lady had encouraged her, how could she disappoint her then?

"OK." She gave her affirmation.

After all, she had no wish to marry, so if she could drag it out longer, then she would.

After Su Jin had received the satisfactory reply, she happily locked her phone and proceeded to work on her novel.

Next door, Lu Xi was frowning.

After he had concluded the business aspect of work with Qin An, Lu Xi had dismissed him and gone to sit in front of the computer.

Since the mastermind had the capability to utilize a web platform to connect with Han Xue Lan, then it went without saying that he or she would have the ability to wipe out all traces leading back to them, making it almost impossible to use the web to track them. Therefore, for this reason he had Qin An bring him a top-of-the-line, specially configured desktop computer.

However, it was totally not as he had expected.

The chat record between Han Xue Lan and the other person was still there and very quickly, he was able to pinpoint the location where the conversation had taken place. The whole process was unbelievably easy; to think that nothing had even been deleted or erased was surprising.

Ultimately, however, it was the location that had caused the frown on his face.

No. 19, Binhai Villa, Beijing.

No. 19, Binhai Villa, Beijing was the private residence of the eldest daughter of Beijing's Xiao family, Xiao Ya.

In addition, she often held functions there, but… Lu Xi closed his eyes and his mind thought about and sifted through all of the variables before a sliver of a smile appeared.

Firstly, the day of the chat was on the first of July and this was verified. Next, the mastermind had used a computer. Since there had been a function, where it was natural to eat and be merry, those attending wouldn't have carried a notebook computer to attend. Of course, if he had brought a notebook in, then that would make things easy because based on his knowledge, Xiao Ya's private residence was outfitted with security cameras.

However, if he didn't bring a notebook, then that would mean that he had to make use of Xiao Ya's computer. Xiao Ya was usually a fastidious person and if she had let someone use her personal computer, it would definitely be to someone very close to her.

Regarding this person….

Lu Xi gently shook his head.

Xiao family and the Lu family had an amicable relations.h.i.+p, and he and Xiao Ya were of the same age and had known each other since they were young. Moreover, ever since she was young, Xiao Ya had loved to visit the Lu Residence, and at times had come on her own to look for him. Over time, some people had even thought that Xiao Ya liked him.

For someone to use Xiao Ya's computer to attack Jin'er- it was not hard to imagine that should this matter be brought to light, others would naturally be inclined to believe that Xiao Ya was eaten up by jealousy and sought to harm his fiance.

Overall, it had to be said that it was a brilliant plan.

If Xiao Ya had really liked him, it was highly probable that he would have turned his suspicions towards her. The truth was that 'h.e.l.l hath no fury like a woman scorned' and he had seen this numerous times.

However, the fact was…. The person that Xiao Ya liked was Lu Jing.

All those times when she had visited the Lu Residence was because she had hoped to see Lu Jing. That was the reason why she looked for Lu Xi. While outsiders viewed his brother as cold and unfeeling, to him, Lu Jing was warm and lenient. Thus if they didn't have any blood relations, perhaps Xiao Ya would have even considered him to be her rival.

Xiao Ya's feelings towards Lu Jing were known to those close to her within Beijing's elite circle.

So for this mastermind to use Xiao Ya's computer and yet was unaware of this, perhaps he wasn't that close to Xiao Ya.

Thus, since it wasn't a close confidant, but someone she couldn't refuse, could it be a relative?

With the target almost identified, he took out his phone and made a call to Xiao Ya.

"Hi, Lu Xi." The call was answered almost immediately and Xiao Ya's clear voice came over the phone, "Whatever's the matter, make it quick, this lady is in a hurry to corner Lu Jing!"

This tomboy…. Lu Xi haplessly sighed, this chit of a girl would only behave like a lady in the presence of Lu Jing.

"On July the first, did you bring some folks up to the Binhai Villa?" He didn't mess around and asked directly.

"July the first?" Xiao Ya recollected before replying "Yup, what about it?"

"Was there anyone who brought along a notebook or made use of your computer?"

"Computer?" Xiao Ya was momentarily stunned before she immediately replied in indignation, "yes, an absolutely annoying fellow who came from Shenhai. He is a year older than me and my mum had insisted I call him Gege, saying that he was some distant relative. She even insisted that I take him around so I very kindly invited him to the party. And then, he even wanted to use my personal computer. You do know how much I detest others touching my things but my mother had given me instructions that I had to accommodate him…"

"Who was it?" Hearing such crucial information, Lu Xi couldn't help but interrupt her chatter.

"Ah," Xiao Ya was stunned before her ire took over and she exclaimed, "Lu Xi what's with you! This old lady was just getting into it…"

"Then you continue nattering." Lu Xi lowered his head to note the time on his watch. Then in a calm unhurried tone, "my brother will soon be knocking off work to go for dinner."

As expected, the sound on the other end dissipated.

After a few seconds, Xiao Ya's voice continued, "I think he was called Zhao something or other Hua. I can't remember it clearly. Oh my, it's almost twelve, I'm hanging up!"

The tone of the line being cut off was heard.

Lu Xi held onto the phone, and in the depths of those peach blossom eyes, a wisp of shrewd light surfaced from within.
