Chapter 7
The aftermath
Shielding had a very bad mood, from that moment when his that immediate superior came to the Coastal state, his mood hasn’t improved.
As a professional, he has been as the spy in the federation for these many years, has been carefully to hide his identity, and has completed many tasks which the organization handed over to him. He really felt very tired, but sometimes when he thought about it, he would feel proudly and complacently. But he didn’t think of, he worked hard for so long in the territory of the federation, just because of a sudden idea of the organization, then he would face such a dangerous situation…
No matter how the result of the negotiation between the anti-government army and that prince would be, Shielding knows that his identity couldn’t be hid any more. Even the federation aspect would leave him alone temporarily, but after this matter, the Tai family definitely wouldn’t care about his life.
If he got caught by the federal government, then what welcomes him would be the life imprisonment. Shielding knows that he doesn’t have any brightness in front of him, only see when that darkness would come to him.
He also thought to leave just like this, but in the federation, where he could go to? Unless he returned to the four states surrounding the mountains. But the organization didn’t give him the order to leave, if he returned without any order, that would be nothing different from betraying the organization.
In the cause of the anti-government, they these people, just the could be sacrificed chess pieces at any time, no one would care about their safety. This fact made his mood very bad, his that beautiful face was full with the gloomy lines.
He sat by side of the Rose river bank, waiting for the arrival of the final verdict, but he didn’t expect, he would wait for the scene that a red dress girl wanted to drown herself.
He brought Youzhi down to the ground, looked at this woman in her that cold eyes and at her that pretty face, looked at her that to people and to herself all extremely cruel expression, Shielding didn’t know why he felt so angry, he said in a deep voice, “I don’t know whether you have the brain or not… only a boy student didn’t pick you as the bed partner, do you need to kill yourself?”
The thrown on the grass Youzhi had the lonely meaning full in her eyes, she stared at Shielding that evil face, suddenly put forth her strength to struggle up, and roared like a angry lioness, “it’s all your fault! It’s all your fault!”
Youzhi doesn’t know whether she like that brother prince or not, because in these two years, she just saw the other party twice in total. But in these many years, all the things seem to persuade her, she should like Charlie Tai, and must like Charlie Tai.
But today the dancing party of the Bi-Moons Festival, let all of these become the bubbles. Once she thought of that expressed her love to her without sparing lady, thought of herself the waiting in these many years, then she felt the cold in her heart, it seems like that nothing is worth to cherish.
So she left her partners, left the dancing party, came to the quiet Rose riverside. Perhaps she just wanted to hold a memorial ceremony for her past, but didn’t think to draw on a brawler.
Shielding is a very delicate guy, but his strength is very big. Pressed the wrists by him, no matter how Youzhi struggled, she just couldn’t get up.
Shielding felt the tender body under his body, in the moment when he got ready to die at any minute, he suddenly felt some long lost excitement. Had been playing the playboy for several years, he seems to have some numb to the women. But today on the grass, looked at near at hand Youzhi that helpless and malicious pretty face, he had some reaction gradually.
In the cold night, this pair of hostile man and woman, because of each other the different encounters, had the same disappointment and sorrow mood, rolled on the grass together, and looked at each other ruthlessly.
Youzhi found out that her strength is far not as strong as this man, looked at him quietly for a moment, with the strength of the waist, struggled up and bit on the hand of Shielding.
Shielding that beautiful face had the twist, the blood ran out from the back of his hand. He was angry, slapped on the head of Youzhi and scolded, “you still really thought that I would be fond of women?”
Youzhi looked at him coldly and said, “either you kill me today, or you just wait to be killed.”
“This kind of threat once is enough.” Shielding stared at the malicious face of this woman, suddenly felt that it’s very exciting, said in a deep voice, “don’t forget just now in the garden, when you threatened me, how I deal with you.”
The wound on Shielding that thin lips, verified that romantic and fierce scene in the back garden of the dancing party. On the thin snow grass, the young man and woman seemed to think of that scene at the same moment, both had some strange mood in the eyes, almost had the same movement at the same time, kissed together straight from the shoulder.
Sheilor stood on the edge of the woods, gazed at this scene by the river bank blankly, he couldn’t understand how the story would develop into this romantic farce unexpectedly. He thought that childe Shielding this rascal is really a rascal, and Youzhi this abnormal woman is really abnormal, he couldn’t help to have the infinite admiration to these two people.
Since it’s none of his business, and he doesn’t know where to go to, he felt bored to have a scratch on the head, walked to the iron gate of the Pear Garden.
A room in an apartment building in the Coastal state, there is the sound of the automatic alarm. Shielding opened his eyes right away, although in the eyes of all his colleagues, he is a lazy to the extreme, corrupt to the extreme playboy, but the developed good life habit as a spy, always would play its role in some details.
Got out of the way those scattered alcohol bottle under the bed, Shielding walked into the bathroom, after washed and dressed with the very fast speed, then he made himself a very rich nutrition breakfast, and began to read today’s electronic newspaper while he was having it. After he finished reading the newspaper, he threw the dishes into the wash sink. He walked back to the bedroom, began to look at that still having the sweet dream woman in the bed blankly.
It’s already cold ice and snow outside of the window, but inside of the window it’s as warm as spring. In the bed that woman was all naked, the red dress was thrown to a corner of the bed, the same big red silk thin quilt, randomly put on her showed smooth like jade back, the curve on her waist and hips is so shocking by the sight.
The woman was still facing to the direction of the window and sleeping, only revealed her lithe and graceful back to Shielding, the like jade skin set by the red silk, seemed especially attractive. Her that plump buttocks were covered half, the slender and smooth thighs were all covered under the silk quilt, only could see the lines faintly, that seemed to have the charming feeling more.
Shielding has already forgot how much wine he had drunk last night, he doesn’t know how many this kind of ONS he already had in his this life. But looked at that woman in the bed quietly, looked at her that full of charm curve and her that natural like wave hair, he had some unusual feeling in his heart.
If it’s not because he fell into the panic of worrying to be arrested by the federation at any time, perhaps he would never have sex with this kind of trouble character, especially he knows very clearly the background of this woman and her callousness.
“Don’t pretend sleeping.” Shielding opened his mouth and said coldly, “I still have to go to work today.”
Youzhi turned her body around in the bed very lazily, but her eyes were still shut closely, the residual makeup on her face is not ugly, instead has a kind of red flower after the rain feeling. She pulled the red silk thin quilt up a bit subconsciously, covered her chest, then she opened her eyes slowly and asked, “what time is it now?”
“Eleven o’clock.” hearing Youzhi that somewhat hoarse voice, Shielding this playboy couldn’t help to have some mind oscillation incredibly, thought of the crazy last night, in the b
ed this woman looks like lascivious, but actually catered to him not so smoothly, the initial tight and nervous, became the running river in the end.
Youzhi sat up in the bed, turned her body around and began to put on her clothes, she lowered head slightly and said coldly, “don’t let anyone know about what happened last night.”
“I think so too.” Shielding said calmly.
Youzhi’s back figure had a stiff slightly, after a moment she said, “don’t tell anyone that you know me in the future.”
“I think so too.” Shielding’s reply was still this calm and cold.
Youzhi dressed the clothes well, walked to the door of the apartment, and then raised her voice in great weeping without any omen. The tears washed down on her face like the rains, cried the residual makeup powder into a flower, a broken flower.
Shielding looked at her quietly, knew that this woman was not crying for his attitude, perhaps she was crying for something even herself was not fully clearly? But he knew that Youzhi was crying for real, crying desperately, crying grieved, crying for her past, crying for her present, crying for herself, crying for others…
This rascal official of the FBI knows women very much, when woman even were crying, she still would care about whether she was crying good-looking. Only when she was taking herself as a broken jar, then she would grin the mouth, blow the nose bubble, and twist the facial features, just like the Youzhi right now.
“Don’t cry. I am a dying people, I still didn’t cry, what are you crying for?” the expression of Shielding was particularly gloomy.
Just right at this time, the phone of the apartment rang, Shielding picked up the phone, noticed that the red light flashed on the phone, this represents that it’s a secret phone call came from the unknown line, and had already passed the legal monitoring of the FBI to the subordinate staff.
He silenced for a moment, connected the phone, and then he heard a strange voice, “the preliminary assumption is reached, we need the more detailed things.”
Just after this sentence, the phone call was stopped suddenly, the expression on Shielding’s face became more heavy. At this time he still didn’t know, last night the negotiation details and result between that middle-aged man and the prince, but this phone call indicated, this negotiation seemed to be successful, and he also don’t need to begin to flee from his home right away.
The work began, Shielding put down the phone, took a deep breath, when he turned his head around, then he found out that the dressed in red girl had already disappeared.
“Lately I would be very busy.”
Sheilor listened to the voice on the other side of the phone, he didn’t reply, just listened very seriously to the words of Shielding.
“You know that I am a FBI official, often have to perform some tasks which are the skeleton in the closet, so perhaps one day I would disappear.” Shielding said breezily on the other side of the phone, “if one day I am really missing, please don’t worry, and don’t try to find me.”
The sound was very easy, but Sheilor still could smell some not so auspicious omen, he wanted to ask, but from the tone of his friend, he could tell that the other party wouldn’t tell the real reason.
“Now the problem is, my task is a secret mission, after I am missing, maybe the FBI will have the investigation on you.” Shielding the voice on the other side of the phone became extremely seriously, “you just tell the truth, don’t try to hide anything in front of those professionals, you couldn’t hide the truth from them. Besides, we are just the regular friends, they should be able to investigate it clearly.”
“I don’t know how you know Charlie Tai, but I also don’t need to know about it right now. I just want to remind you, if after I disappeared, you ran into the big trouble, you could try to tell his name out, I believe that you shouldn’t have too much problem.”
Sheilor had been listening to the explain of Shielding quietly, but at this time, he finally could help to say, “even the most secret mission still would have that day when it is completed… if you missing represents that you can’t come back no more, I hope that you still can notice me, after all, I don’t have too many friends in the federation.”
The voice of Shielding on the other side of the phone paused for a moment, then he said, “I will try my best.”
Sheilor held the mobile phone tightly, his eyes narrowed habitually, said seriously, “no matter what kind of trouble you are in right now, I hope that you can take good care of yourself.”
After this phone call, Shielding then disappeared in the life of Sheilor. After many days, Sheilor even ran to the Coastal Field Service of the FBI to look for him once, those staff members of the Section Four said, the section chief Shielding requested for two month long vacation, but nobody knew where he went to and what he did.
Sheilor couldn’t help to have some worry, but in the situation he couldn’t get hold with the other party, he couldn’t do anything at all.
Disappeared with Shielding at the same time, also had that mysterious Charlie Tai.
In one night, Sheilor took the risk to enter the H1 area once, but he couldn’t find the existence of the coffee in the lounge, but he confirmed that Charlie Tai should still stay in the campus, just seemed to be busy in something.
For a moment, Sheilor had the great dissatisfaction for his own life, the rare couple friends, all seemed so spooks and so mysterious, said disappear then disappeared. He was somewhat annoyed to think, surely it doesn’t mean that in this world, still have the more mysterious guy than his identity?
After the late autumn is the winter, the thick snow piled on the streets of the university town of the Coastal state, the biting cold wind let most of the students choose the remote teaching, and not willing to leave the apartment block to go to listen the class of those professors.
But Sheilor still walked through in the Pear Garden, wearing that green army dust coat which lady Chung gave to him, headed on the blizzard, studied silently, and lived his life silently.
The aftermath of the dancing party of the Bi-Moons Festival had already all gone, the finger pointing of the students to Sheilor on the road had already disappeared.
The only interlude was that fetched down the front teeth by Sheilor in tow punches, the childe of the Channing family, asked somebody to bring him some gifts, expressed their reconciliatory intend.
Also through this detail, Sheilor then understood, after all, the heir of the Tai family, in some classes of the federation, is really the infinitely awe-stricken existence indeed.
The New Year is coming, just when Sheilor was almost frozen by the blizzard to have the numb mood, he received a phone call in the cafeteria, Charming that somewhat hesitated voice came from the other side of the phone, “you asked my secret in the dancing party, can I meet you on the iron tower tomorrow afternoon?”
