A Billion Dollar Exchange Chapter 264 - You'll get hurt

The heart shattering thing of it all was the fact that Liu Wei had walked up the stage and exposed their relationship to the whole world. Although Liling was receiving backlash right now, she knew that once Liu Wei spoke up, it would all turn in her favor.

She could kill Liling herself but she did not want to do the dirty work.

She did not want it to be traced to her that was why she contacted Da Xia in the first place. She had been trying Da Xia's number throughout the night but she did not pick.

''Yan Ran, I don't remember us having any relationship that would make you raise your voice at me. I'm sure I paid you to do your part of the job? ''

Da Xia said eloquently, she had ignored Yan Ran throughout the night, knowing what she was calling for. But that morning she decided to answer her unending calls.

Yan Ran gritted her teeth angrily and forced her retort back down her throat.

''I'm sorry Miss Da Xia, but I thought we had an initial plan? ''

Da Xia was quiet for a while before speaking up.

''Well, I had a change of mind. Killing her like that would result to serious investigations and we may get caught, so we have to give her a chance to leave on her own accord. ''

''What if she does not leave? What then are you going to do? ''

''Don't worry, she'll leave, I'll make sure to break her till she leaves, trust me.''

Yan Ran heaved a sigh. A simple poison would end that bitch but she knew if Liu Wei found out, that would be the end of her and her entire family.

''Okay, I just hope you are right. ''

Yan Ran squeezed her phone angrily in her hand when the call ended. She was just putting up with Da Xia because she wanted to get rid of Liling, but that did not mean she would let her have him. If that was what she was thinking, then she was gravely mistaken.

If she could not have him, no-one else can!

Liling was watching a movie downstairs when she heard a car drive in. She immediately stood up from the couch and rushed outside. Her steps came to a stop when she could not recognize the car.

The driver alighted and opened the back door for the occupant to come out.

Liling felt like disappearing into the ground when she saw the person that just stepped out.

Liu Wei's father!!

What was he doing here? Did he see the pictures? Does he know I live here? Liu Wei isn't home! What do I do?

Liling wanted to run back into the house before they saw her but it was already too late since they were already walking towards her. Her heart beat frantically against her chest as her legs stood rooted on the spot unable to move.

As they approached, Liling tried to greet but no word could form. She did not know why, but guilt enveloped her whole self. She wished for Liu Wei to just return that moment.

Mr. Zang stared at her form for a moment before continuing into the house, totally ignoring her.

Liling felt as though she was dreaming,

Did he not recognize her? Wow! That was great! She could pretend that she knew nothing and go hide in her room, maybe call Liu Wei and tell him that his father was sitting in his parlor waiting for him.

Liling waited for a while, organizing herself before venturing back into the house. They were sitting down already by the time Liling walked in. She murmured a greeting and started walking briskly towards the stairs but before she could go quite far, she heard someone call.

''You; stop right there ''

He did not shout, just in a normal tone but Liling felt as though he had screamed at her, she did not even know when she stopped walking. She slowly turned around to look at the persons in the parlor, a bit shaky.

Liu Wei's father stared at her intently but no emotions were written on his face. Liling could not figure out what he was thinking at that moment, something told her that he knew her but again, he had not said anything, so she shouldn't conclude.

''Go get us coffee. '' Mr Zang paused before resuming.

''Three cups ''

He said still looking disinterested. Liling stared at him confused. They were just two, who was the third cup for? Liu Wei was not yet back, was he getting him a cup in advance?

Nodding nervously, she walked off to the kitchen to prepare the coffee. After a few minutes, she sauntered back into the parlor carrying a tray.

She placed the tray on the center table and served each of them with a saucer. When she was through, she nodded and turned to leave.

''The last one is for you. Sit.''

All along, Liling had been suspecting that he knew her but she did not want to conclude, but that moment, when he told her to sit, she knew he had recognized her from the very moment he saw her outside.

Her palms got sweaty when she heard him. He spoke in an average tone but it felt as though he had commanded her. She walked to the table again and picked the coffee, nervously sauntering to a cushion farthest away from them, she sat down awkwardly.

Nobody talked for five whole minutes. Liling just stared at her cup of coffee, her mind flooded with different emotions. The weather was cold but she could feel her whole body sticky as a result of how nervous she was. Her only prayer was that Liu Wei could come back and save her from that situation.

''What's your name? ''

Mr. Zang finally asked. Liling looked up at him and said her name.

''Lee Liling, sir ''

''What a beautiful name for a beautiful face; I can see why Liu Wei is heads over you, you are indeed pretty! ''

Liling pursed her lips as her gaze fell on her coffee again.
