Mr. L's DILEMMA: Can't Help Falling In Love With You (BOOK 2)

Chapter 316

"You have to inform Old Master Kim about this soon. Jae-wook's forces in Capital City must be wiped out before our operation starts. My men in Capital City will work together with Old Master Kim."

Lisa gazed into the distance as he spoke. "I'm not going to give him a chance to escape."

Jisoo nodded. He was burdened with a difficult task now. He was unsure whether his old man's forces would be sufficient. If they were not up to the mark, he would need to return to Capital City to assist them personally.

"In other words, Luo Hai will face a drastic change soon."

Jisoo sneered, "I've always loved a good fight. However, the stakes are certainly higher this time. We have to think this over properly."

Ryujin thought about it for a moment when he heard that. He asked, "Have you decided on a time and place to carry out this operation?"

"We'll do it after the Manoban Family's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet!"

Lisa replied without any hesitation. His murky eyes were fixed on the nearby scenery.

The cold autumn breeze blew, but a thunderstorm was coming!

Jungkook's case was basically settled. The drugs discovered in the sugar cubes were an exact match to the ones that had used to poison Taecyeon. The suspect's confession corresponded with the evidence as well. It was just that Jungkook's surrender seemed too much like a coincidence. There was an indescribable yet conflicting feeling in Huai's heart.

The final matter was to transfer this case to the judicial authorities for them to press charges. This case would be rather tricky to handle because Jae-wook was breathing heavily down their necks.

Nonetheless, the staff of the major crimes department could finally relax now that they had completed their task.

"Captain Huai, you should take us out for a treat!"

Little Jiang had always been one of the livelier members of the team. When could they ask the captain for a reward if not now?

Huai also felt that it would be alright to go out and have a little celebration. After all, everyone had worked hard these past few days.

"Alright, it's my treat!"

When his face Huai softened and he spoke in a gentle voice, everyone realized that he was actually an extremely kind and good looking man...

The staff of the major crimes department invited Eunwoo and Jennie as well. Chaeyoung would also be there to keep Jennie company. They ate at a hot pot restaurant first before someone suggested to go to a karaoke bar.

Huai agreed at once. He seemed to be in a good mood today.

Everyone cheered.

Huai decided to sing in front of everyone for the first time that night. Nothing was more exciting or touching than that. He sang "Back From Target Shooting Practice", "Green Flower of the Army", and "We Soldiers"...

The crowd was speechless.

Huai had chosen some oldies, but he sang them beautifully. Everyone unanimously agreed that Captain Huai's talents were wasted in the criminal police department. He should have been a singer instead...

The members of the criminal police force who were usually serious and restrained had grown sluggish and relaxed once they had sung and drank merrily. They shouted and pumped their fists. The lively atmosphere was filled with the sound of happy chatter.

Jennie was secretly troubled by this. After all, this joyous occasion was only happening because Jungkook was arrested.

Her mind was burdened, and she had a hard time breathing because of the smoke. She decided to go outside for some fresh air.

This was the biggest and most upscale venue in Luo Hai. She could tell that Huai came from an influential background. He had chosen the best place to take his guests out for a treat.

Jennie walked along the corridor before she found a quiet corner in the venue and leaned against the wall. There was a transparent French window that allowed her to look down at Luo Hai's bustling, brightly-lit nightscape from above.

"Leave me alone..."

Jennie returned to her senses when a familiar female voice echoed along the long corridor behind her. A woman was stumbling along in the dark. She seemed rather tipsy.

"Why are you disturbing me... You have your Little Jennie... I know that you don't care about me... Am I right? Grandmother said... She wants you to divorce her... You can marry me once you've left her..."

Somi sobbed quietly. She cried as she desperately hit the man who was trying to hold her. Jennie felt as though her heart had dropped into an icy hole when she recognized the man...

Lisa furrowed his eyebrows. His expression was obscured in the dim light, but the contours of his face could be seen clearly.

Somi wailed and kicked up a big fuss. Her slightly torn clothes made her a pitiful sight. It seemed like she had ripped it on purpose.

She sounded miserable when she said, "You're lying... Why did you save me... Don't you feel like you're indebted to me now..."

Jennie could not understand what she was rambling about. Her head was only filled with the sweet nothings that Lisa whispered in her ear during one of their happier moments. "Little Nini, I suffer from germophobia but... I'm obsessed with your body. It's the only thing that I'll never reject... I can't get enough of you..."

That irritating man was actually making an exception now. He picked up the troublesome woman up and carried her toward the elevator...

So much for his germophobia!
