Lin Xiaofei stiffened and swiftly turned around.

However, because their bodies were closed in the first place, when she turned around, their faces were a few inches away from each other.

Although the two of them were both wearing something to cover their faces, Lin Xiaofei and Qu Xing Xu couldn\'t stop being startled at their closeness.

And as if time stopped, the two of them stayed like that for a few seconds before Lin Xiaofei stepped backward, but the man before her grabbed her forearm and pulled her towards him.

Surprised at his sudden action, Lin Xiaofei\'s first reaction was to stretch out her arms and struggle to get away from him, but who would have known that what he said stopped her from struggling.

"Don\'t move." He said by her ear, "You\'re going to step on a trap."

Lin Xiaofei fiercely glared at him and said, "I stood on that ground earlier before you caught me, how can it have a trap now?"

"You can try to step on it then.." Qu Xing Xu let go of her forearm and as if he was waiting for her to do that, he didn\'t say anything else and looked at her.

"However, I can\'t promise you will be able to avoid getting hurt." A cold glint flashed in his eyes and Lin Xiaofei knew he was not lying.

Lin Xiaofei did not move and stared at him. There was a little part of her that wished he was lying so she could move away from the man holding her. Their bodies were so close to each other that she could feel the warmth coming from his body and his broad chest almost touching her.

However, she couldn\'t continue being in this kind of situation when she has more important matters to do.

"Can you step back?" She asked him.

Without changing his tone and expression, Qu Xing Xu said, "I can\'t. I\'m afraid there\'s a trap behind me too."

Glaring holes at him, Lin Xiaofei gritted her teeth and held her anger down. She instead decided to trace back the steps she took earlier and get away from him as soon as possible, or else, she might do something to the man before her.

Once they were a few feet apart, Lin Xiaofei turned to look at him, "I came to talk about the matters we discussed last time. However, since you wish to play around… I guess, I\'ll have to leave and return once you have cleared your mind."

Qu Xing Xu raised an eyebrow and a smile dangled in the corner of his lips. He crossed his arms across his chest as he said, "Young Miss must not be too anxious. I have what you want but if you leave now, I cannot promise that you will get it the next time we meet."

With that, Lin Xiaofei stopped her intention to leave.

The two of them walked towards the stone stable where chairs were already arranged for both of them. On top of the table was snacks and hot tea was already served.

Once seated on her chair, Lin Xiaofei didn\'t waste time and asked him, "You really managed to get a bomb from the duke?" She couldn\'t believe her ears when she heard him say that he had what she wanted.

A few days have already passed but that duration was too short for anyone to get a bomb from someone, especially, when it came from the Duke of Xin.

This only proved that the manager of Hong Pei Lou and the Duke had some relations with each other. However, Lin Xiaofei was unable to guess what kind of relation they had and was slightly interested.

Looking at the masked man, Lin Xiaofei waited for him to answer.

"Yes," was his simple reply.

Lin Xiaofei was slightly disappointed that he didn\'t elaborate the details of how he got the bomb from the Duke, but thinking that it was something that was not needed to be discussed between them or to anyone, Lin Xiaofei didn\'t probe further and decided to start her business.

"When can I receive it?" she asked him, her eyes flashed in anticipation which was noticed by Qu Xing Xu.

Seeing how excited she was, Qu Xing Xu was curious about what her intention is and where would she use the bomb. She looked like a child about to receive a gift from her parents as she continued to stare at him.

Not letting her wait any longer, Qu Xing Xu said, "You\'ll receive it from one of my men when you leave Hong Pei Lou."

Glad to hear that, Lin Xiaofei said her thanks to him before asking him: "I didn\'t get your name last time. Although, a little bit late, may I ask what I should call you since I don\'t want to call you \'You\' when there\'s a chance for us to meet again."

"You can call me Manager Li." He said as he poured the two cups some tea after lying about his real identify.

After taking a sip of his tea, he suddenly asked, "Why are you not afraid of me?"

"Why should I be afraid of you?" Lin Xiaofei asked in reply and stared at him with innocent eyes.

Leaning forward, Qu Xing Xu smilingly said with a playful tone, "This place is hidden to the world. You are an unmarried young lady and I am a dangerous man. Whatever happens inside this room, no one will know and no one will help you."

"Do you still think you should not be afraid?" he added.

Wanting to see her flustered reaction, Qu Xing Xu wanted to remind her of the danger she might face, especially, when she just willingly and trustingly walked into this room.

However, who would have thought that her answer would make him choke and look at her incredulously.

Unperturbed at his words, Lin Xiaofei plainly said as if she wasn\'t talking about something that a young lady mustn\'t, "Aside from the nightly activities between husbands and wives, and killing me, what else can Manager Li do?"

Tilting her head with dilated eyes, she added, "Last time, Manager Li didn\'t accept my payment. Perhaps, is that what you want?"
