Rong looked at what Ru was working on the computer and frowned, "Do you think this kidnapping has something to do with that organization?"

Ru knew which organization he was referring to. Those were the people because of whom she became Alev Knight. Those were the people, she despised the most. "I don't think. I know it's done by them."

"Why? To get back at you for destroying their bases?" inquired Rong as he leaned against the shelf behind her.

Ru shook her head and pulled out a picture of Lilith on the computer screen, "She is the reason." Rong raised his brow at her inquisitively. Ru elaborated on how she met Lilith and what conspired after that. Rong listened attentively and nodded his head but when he saw Ru changing the pictures on the screen, his brows furrowed up while she said, "They are trying to get their test subject back. I won't let that happen." Ru rubbed her forehead and added, "But I can't understand why did they kidnap Xiao Zhiyuan and Zhang Han with her."

Rong pointed at Xiao Zhiyuan's picture and asked, "Is he Xiao Zhiren's brother?" Ru bobbed her head in response and he straightened up saying, "Then you're looking at this situation wrongly."

"Huh? What do you mean?" asked Ru in confusion.

Rong pointed at Lilith's photo and started, "Their target isn't her," he shifted his finger to Yuan and went on, "He is the real target. She and the other guy just got stuck with him."

Ru was perplexed not knowing what he meant, "Big brother, what are you talking about? Yuan doesn't even have anything to do with that organization. He is just a simple high school graduate."

"A simple high school graduate?" Ru found his tone a bit strange and looked at his face while he continued, "Which family does he belong to?"

Ru answered, "The Ji Family."

"And why do you think I got myself a fiancee from Ji Family?" asked Rong reminding Ru that she was told on the cruise ship that Rong was Ji Caihong's fiance. But how could that be possible?

After contemplating for a moment, she said, "Maybe, you fell in love with that little girl." She thought about it for a minute before saying, "But is that even possible?"

Rong had a bleak look on his face as he replied, "No, it's not possible. I chose her for a reason."

"Reason?"

"Do you know who her mother is?" asked Rong and Ru's eyes widened.

"Oh, that woman who separated Xiao Zhiren and Xiao Zhiyuan from their own family. I just heard about her but I don't know who she is," replied Ru and as his words played in her mind again, she abruptly stood up saying, "Don't tell me that she's the one behind everything that happened with us."

Rong stayed silent for a long moment while Ru pulled took out a cigarette and with her lighter, she lit it up. She was just about to take a puff when Rong slapped the back of her head and narrowed his eyes at her, "Smoking?"

Ru tried to laugh it off by saying, "Well, anyone can pick up one or two bad habits on the streets."

Rong glared at her and took her lighter from her as well. But when he looked at the word 'Raven' carved on it, he smiled on his own. She still was sticking with her essence. But when he turned the lighter in his hand, his eyes caught sight of the 'Thunderbird' symbol and his expressions shifted.

"You don't have a part of your memories, right?" asked Rong out of the blue.

"Yeah, I don't," replied Ru.

He pointed at that lighter and said, "How come you remember this 'Thunderbird'?"

Ru frowned first before answering, "Just saw a snippet in my dreams." She thought about it before adding, "I thought this had something to do with my enemies. But later, I was reminded that Thunderbird actually is the representation of the Ji Family. And I can't find any link of my almost death with the Ji Family." Recalling how her team found something suspicious in Ji Family, she continued, "However, I do think that there is something fishy in Ji Family but still, they are not the ones I'm looking for."

"They are certainly not the ones you're looking for but they are connected indirectly."

Ru's face was contorted in confusion as she said, "Big brother, the only connection they can have is Ji Caihong's mother. But that woman is dead. Even Xiao Zhiren is looking for her murderer. How can she be connected now? Unless the daughter took her mother's place and Ji Caihong is the real culprit now."

"I never thought my little brother's thinking could be this simple," replied Rong. "First of all, let me clear one thing with you. Ji Caihong's innocent persona can be deceiving because she seems too naive to be true. However, she isn't faking it. Ji Caihong is exactly what she seems. She has no hidden face." Ru was surprised to hear her brother speaking up for someone else but she still listened without interrupting him. "As for what suspicions you have of Ji Family are also wrong."

"How can you be so sure?" asked Ru.

"Because I've known that family for years now..." he took his phone and went through some documents before showing it to Ru. "Can you recognize her?"

Ru looked at that photo and that horrible dream of hers flashed right before her eyes. That shrieking voice of that girl rang in her ears, 'You still have the guts to look at my man.' Ru's cracked her knuckles while bloodthirst was palpable in her eyes. She looked like she wanted to tear that girl apart. "She is still alive?"

"Well, I had plenty of chances to kill her but I knew you'd love to do it yourself," replied Rong.

"How is she involved with Ji Family?" asked Ru.

Rong showed her a photo of Ji Caihong with that girl. And that girl in the photo was none other than Ji Caihong's best friend, Tang Yiyi who had previously sent assassins for Ru when she was trying to have a simple tea with her best friend Jie. "She is known as Tang Yiyi now. She took this identity to stay close to Ji Caihong. She's more like Ji Caihong's bodyguard and a rat in Ji Family. And that's when I got to know how I was supposed to control the ones in that organization."

Ru was trying to process this information in her mind when he dropped another bomb, "You said Xiao Zhiren is looking for that woman's murderer."

"Hmm..." Ru hummed in reply. "She did something with his memories. He thinks she was his mother and that's why he's hostile towards his own family."

Rong gave her a smile that didn't look like a smile as he asked, "Don't you wanna know who the murderer is?"

"You know?" asked Ru in surprise.

"You know her as well," replied Rong and Ru's brows quirked up in surprise. He brought her to a side and pointed at the mirror saying, "She's right here."
