Chapter 501 - 511: Unforgettable Place-III

Li Xiao Chen felt a sudden shiver brushed his neck that caused goosebumps to break on his arms, "Seems like your family is much more a mess than others whom I ever heard of. So then? What happened to that brother of yours?"

"Died," Naomi deadpanned, a light happiness could also be pulled if one was to inspect her words closely, "But he deserves it. He killed every one of my family members when he knew his life was going short due to his acute illness. That crazy man want to bring people down with him."

"But you survived," Li Xiao Chen singled her words, untying the rope without he aid of his eyes was much more of a hurdle than he first thought. 

"Thanks to my sister. When that f.u.c.k.i.n.g man pointed his rifle toward me and my mother cowering on the corner of the room, busily trying to survive after pushing me to the mouth of the lion, it was only her who came to my rescue. She took the knife and sliced his neck. You know I am not a fan of violence but that day I felt over the moon that he finally died."

Li Xiao Chen hummed in response. Naomi was a woman with foul mouth and that didn't change but given her circ.u.mstances, he learned to understand her point of view and rather felt pity for her. 

"Your brother, are you still not going to ask him what is this all about even if you met him later?" Naomi then asked, "it isn't fair that I get to have all the talkings."

"I won't," Li Xiao Chen made his decision after a while and smiled. "I told you, it is my brother's right to tell me what he wish to know and keep what he doesn't want me to know as a secret."

Naomi still couldn't understand his line of thought because clearly that wasn't something she would like to do. "Are you not afraid of being left out? Or die in something you are not aware of?"

Li Xiao Chen took a brief silence before he replied, "No because I have trust in my brother he would come and safe me something like this won't stop my trust for him."

"You sound as if you have given up on life," said Naomi as she wriggled her wrist that felt loosened.

"I haven't. Instead I have someone..." Violet's face then flashed to his mind all of a sudden, "Someone whom I wish to meet."

The hard work Li Xiao Chen poured into untying the rope that tightly bind Naomi's wrist finally fell off the ground. Both Naomi and Li Xiao Chen's eyes brightened at the news.

"What you are going to do now? Your body legs are also tied, right?" Li Xiao Chen questioned and Naomi pulled herself away from him. As the tie that bind them was undone, she could now move freely without having to stick her back to him.

"This is easy for me," Naomi said in between her struggle. She bent body forward, biting to the rope that tied her leg savagely. Once she had successfully ripped it away, her shoulders wriggled to push away the rope over her shoulders. After some movements and shaking that reminded Li Xiao Chen of a snake whose stomach had been tied to a knot, finally Naomi was able to release herself free.

"Now, help me!" Li Xiao Chen requested with a wide smile. His face at first had been tired and haggard without hope but upon seeing Naomi had freed herself, the hope came back to rejuvenate his gaunt face.

The happiness was short-lived when Naomi who was patting her clothes to dust away the dirts and crossed her arm, watching with the eyes of an outsider, "You know, I feel thankful you have helped me and I understand your pain, but seconds young master Li, if leave this place together at the same time, it would be easier for them to catch me."

Li Xiao Chen felt betrayed and his frown tightly covered his forehead, "No, you wouldn't!"

"Honestly speaking, I am afraid with how gullible you are, you would only end up as a pain on my knees. The fact you helped me doesn't change however so I promise I will be back and notify your brother where you are which will help you, bye!" Naomi quickly run to the closest window which was built high up on the wall.

"Damn it! Naomi! You are a person without heart! Help me from here!" Li Xiao Chen yelled.

Cl.i.c.k.i.n.g her tongue, Naomi came back to Li Xiao Chen and his smile was growing slow but steady only when the woman raised her hand and stuffed her own scarf to his mouth. 

"Shut up!" Naomi demanded and Li Xiao Chen struggled to yell in muffled noise. 

Naomi casted aside one warning look to Li Xiao Chen, "If I cannot escape from here you will suffer too! Now shut up unless you want to get both of use caught and killed!" 

Li Xiao Chen wasn't going to stand down despite the warning. Naomi decided that she cannot waste more time with him and made her way to the wall where a window of her size was built so high up almost as close as the ceiling.

The girl wasn't too tall and she was about to bring and take the old rusted metallic cupboards to stack them together as a ladder when all of a sudden the two heavy door of the factory was opened. Both Naomi and Li Xiao Chen was stunned and their eyes fixed at the shadow figure of a person who marched inside the factory. Five other men followed them.

Naomi swallowed her curse and decked underneath the cupboard to hide.

Li Xiao Chen, on the other hand stared at the person who came with his two eyes wide. His once noisy mouth from yelling Naomi to release him from the rope that tied him now gape in shock.

One look of the face and Li Xiao Chen who excelled in memorizing people's face even after a glance couldn't mistaken this person for anyone else.

It was Wei Tsui Lan! The Tsui Lan those people had said was unmistakably the same Wei Tsui Lan whom he know!

He was shocked to the point he forgot he was in a very terrible situation.

"I had been waiting for you two to be awake and greet each other but I know you two won't wake up willingly. Rather than forcing I suggested to leave the factory and watch when it is time for both of you to wake up," Wei Tsui Lan who was dressed poshly had his coat unworn and dr.a.p.e over his shoulders. The sleeve of his coat danced on air with the wind that pushed it back and forth

He then raised his finger where there was a skull ring on it, pointing upwards to the cameras that settled on the corners of the factory. "I didn't know it will work this well. Miss Naomi, it is also the very best time for you to come out. I don't have a habit of pulling woman but that doesn't stop me from doing it."

Naomi clicked her tongue. She didn't want the man to begin to count or hurt her either as her safety was her priority. It hurt her pride to be demanded but without a choice, she stomped her way out of the cupboard and glared at Wei Tsui Lan like the feral cat she was.

"Great, please come and sit where you had been sitting at from earlier. It's not nice to have a talk while standing."
