Savage Queen's Secret

Chapter 28 - The Old Secretary (Part - 2)



Indeed her generous words were captivating and at the point, but was that enough to win against the stern face, Mr. Luo.

Her eyes were stuck at his reaction like a magnet and she was biting her lips while forgetting all her elegance.

Suddenly they heard a knocking sound which felt more like a door breaking sound, and while forgetting all these matters, Mr. Luo and his son, rushed toward while panicking.

Seeing their reaction, Caixia was sure that they knew what trouble was knocking at their door. She got up and glanced at Si-ting, "Quickly, come with me!" she said and left toward the direction where Mr. Luo and his son left for.

"Mr. Luo, your farm land is on fire!" said an old man with dark complexion and a wand in his hand as soon as they opened the door.

Beside the old man, there were few more farmers standing behind him. They were all there to inform Mr. Luo of his land condition.

Mr. Luo with his son and few more men rushed toward the directions where his farm land lied.

Caixia glanced at Si-ting. They both were standing silently while staring at the things going on.

"It seems that we have to go back without Mr. Luo," Si-ting said while being depressed.

Caixia was examining the situation while many thoughts were rushing in her head, "A farm land started to burn out of no where, which means that someone deliberately tried to burn it. Seeing Mr. Luo reaction and how he grabbed a stick and knife rather then a bucket, it seems that he knows who did that".

She smirked as she got a clue of the situation and stared at Si-ting depressed face.

The people from the Luo family was leaving the house with a stick in each of their hand, they all had got a serious face which was forecasting the trouble waiting for them.

Caixia pointed her eyes toward the door, but rather then getting a clue, he glanced at her while being baffled.

"What do you mean? You are not thinking about that, right?" he said while gulping.

She nodded with a smile and put her hand on his shoulder, "Look at their tensed face, if we help them in getting rid of their obstacle then they will definitely return the favor".

Si-ting gasped and shook his head as fast he could. He was worried because he doesn't wanted to get in trouble and moreover he feared fire, but in front of Caixia, his whines didn't worked and she tagged him along with herself.

"Come on chap, let's get going, too" she said and dragged him to the direction where the other villagers and family member where leaving for.

Soon they get to walk on the rural path which was filled with pebbles and was making it more rough to walk. Sometime the road went down while sometime it went up, but wherever it went, it was covered with trees on the both side.

They were feeling cold as they walked within the forest area and lastly they reached their destination.

"Such a big land, its looks indeed pretty, but where is the fire?" Si-ting said while staring at the scene in front of him.

Caixia pointed toward the ground filled with ashes, but her eyes staring Mr. Luo depressed face.

His son was arguing with a man who came there with his tons of people. They all were keeping their sharp farming tools together with knife.

"The farm land is already burnt to ash, nothing left. Who did such cruel things and why?" Si-ting muttered, his eyes stuck at the soil which had ashes present in it.

Caixia sighed and shook her head in dismay, she couldn't hear their argue, since they were far away from her, but she could understand that some gangsters were trying to get in their way.

To understand what was going on, she stepped forward leaving Si-ting where he was.

Si-ting gasped and grabbed her hand, "Where are you going? Can't you see that it will be dangerous for a girls like you to interfere between those rogue".

He was actually feeling troubled since all the argue seemed to be going on the way where one starts to fight for their life, and he was afraid that Caixia may get herself in trouble.

"Its ok," she said her eyes looking forward, "I will take care of everything!".

Hearing her words, he stopped and loosened his grip on her hand.

She glanced back at him and smiled, "Such trivial matters, is nothing in front of me!" she said and smirked.

Si-ting stayed silent at one place while staring Caixia going between those rogue, but he was too afraid to take another step toward her.

"Huh! I told you that if you guys won't register your land on our name, then we will burn it down. Now pay for taking us lightly," a bald man with a stick in his hand shouted as he smirked and chewed something red inside his mouth.

Caixia felt disgusted as she stared at his mouth which was spitting time to time.

"What's going on here?" she asked while looking at Mr. Luo's tensed face.

His eyelids raised as he saw Caixia. He was not expecting her to tag along, rather he thought that she might leave after he left abruptly in the middle of their conversation. Seeing her standing in front of him, he glanced at the gangsters whose lewd eyes were staring Caixia excitedly.

"Go back, there is no need for you to stay here," he shouted to shooed her away.

Came a young man who was also a part of the gangsters, his face was slightly covered with the black ash and while wetting his lips, he walked toward Caixia.

"You have a great body, how about you come with me and I will leave your relatives for now," he said while showing his teeth.

Caixia sighed and rolled her clenched fist, her eyes ignoring him and staring Mr. Luo who was panicking because of the situation.

"Let her go, she have nothing to do with us," he shouted and walked toward the man who was trying to get Caixia.

The bald man stopped him, "She came by her own wish, do you have any problems. But if you give this land to us, then I will consider leaving her alive".

Caixia chuckled and it grabbed everyone attention.

Exactly, why would a girl who was facing danger will laugh mockingly?

She waved her hand to the man in front of her, telling him to go away and walked toward Mr. Luo.

"Are they illegally telling you to transfer your land to them?" she asked as she stood in front of the bald man.

The man with ashes on his face approached her from behind, "Why are you acting so cool, just say it if you are afraid," he said and grabbed her wrist.

She glared at his hand which was grabbing her wrist, and with that hand, she twisted his both arms, "Don't annoy me, I am not here to play!" she said.

The bald man walked forward and said while gritting his teeth, "All the big and fertile land must belong to us, but these Luo's are picking a fight with us by not surrendering their land silently. So, of course it's our obligation, to teach them as their superior".

Caixia ignored his eyes and stared at her watch, it was afternoon and she glanced at the rouge present there.

"Are these the only people you have got?" she asked.

He felt an unbearable insult as she asked him without showing any sign of fear in her eyes for him.

He who hated it most when others doesn't felt afraid of him, was now at the brink of getting mad and killing Caixia with his own hand.

He outstretched his right hand near her neck, but Mr. Luo stopped his arm before it could reach her.

She smirked and glanced at Mr. Luo whose eyes were telling her to leave the place without causing any more trouble.

"What if I take care of all these stupid fools and provide you with enough fund for the loss you have suffered, will you still reject to come with me?" she asked, her eyes filled with confidence.

He gulped and stared her while being baffled.

The bald man furiously shouted after hearing her provoking words, "Kill them all!".

It caused ruckus and all the farmers who were unrelated to Luo's started to run.

Caixia grabbed out the gun near her thighs and pointed it on the bald man head, "If you die, nothing will happen to me, but if I die, you all will end up being imprisoned. And Mr. Luo, I will consider your silence as a yes to my proposal".

That gun was something she got from Mr. Li's room and she took it in case of emergency.

She shot the gun and it caused a loud sound. The bald man fainted from fear, because Caixia shot just above his head, "Oh, my! It didn't reached you, rather it bounced above. How lucky you are Mr. Baldy".

Quickly she put her gun back as she heard the police siren, while the gangsters started to panic.

It was Si-ting who called for them and after they were taken care off, Caixia went back with Mr. Luo, to his house.

While sitting and getting back at the topic, Mr. Luo nodded and said, "Since it's like this, I will start working with you" .

"No, not only you, Mr. Luo.. I also want your son!" she said.
