Chapter 261 Alliance

With Wang Lu telling Lei Zhao what had happened, Lei Zhao was completely at a loss for words.

Wang Lu had told him about what had happened in the past—especially with how they had killed Gu Zhi in order to protect Yan Mei.

He was shot three times… how could he still be alive? How is that even possible?

"This…" Lei Zhao snapped himself out of his thoughts, taking a deep breath before releasing it. "I did not expect that something as serious as this happened," he mumbled, but it was enough for Wang Lu to hear.

"I thought everything will be okay since six years had already passed," he said out loud, completely getting the attention of Lei Zhao. "But why is he here now? How could he have survived that? My secretary and I made sure that he\'s… dead."

Lei Zhao and Wang Lu silenced. Ye Xing kept writing down details as the conversation went by so he could make sure that they had not missed anything—even a single clue that could help them.

"So, what do we do now? With what you told me, obviously, that Gu Zhi is the one behind this," Lei Zhao said, Wang Lu looking at him seriously.

"What happened recently? Tell me."

Lei Zhao was hesitant at first. But since they had nothing to lose and since it was all for the purpose of protecting Yan Mei, Lei Zhao told Wang Lu of what had happened recently, even before the events that had happened before the launch.

Lei Zhao told him that he received a mysterious parcel. Coincidentally at that time, Yan Mei also received a mysterious message, calling her "little kitty." Upon hearing this, Wang Lu\'s lips turned into a tight line, sensing that their conversation now is connecting the pieces that they have, making the picture clear.

"\'Little Kitty\'," Wang Lu mumbled, enough for the two to hear. "It is obviously Gu Zhi\'s line. He is purposely attacking Feng Mei as he did years ago."

Lei Zhao furrowed his brows in worry and at the same time, frustration.

"All this… just so he could get back with you in hurting his sister?"

Wang Lu heaved another sigh. He could not believe it either. But with him remembering how Gu Zhi was years ago in the past—how he acted especially when it comes to protecting his sister, Gu Ren, he knew that Gu Zhi was capable of doing such things.

"Gu Zhi… we could also say that he is mentally unstable. With his immense love towards his sister, it has clouded his judgments."

Lei Zhao shook his head, not liking with what was happening. He then further told Wang Lu about the other things that had happened after receiving the parcel and receiving the mysterious messages.

"After that, I suggested Yan Mei to go to her therapist. The moment we went there and was having her talk with her therapist, she suddenly had an attack."

Wang Lu\'s eyebrows creased in worry. His eyes then reflected anxiety as he remembered how Yan Mei acted years ago when he found her. It was difficult for him to bring her back in one piece—to make her return to her senses.

With him hearing that Yan Mei is having those attacks again? How could he not worry?

"Did it stop? Was she experiencing it frequently? Was she prescribed medicines?"

"No," Lei Zhao answered truthfully, "It only happened once, thankfully. We were only advised to take a few days off to relax. It was effective. However, when it was the time of the launch, that\'s when she almost had an anxiety attack."

"Tsk!" Wang Lu clicked his tongue, his hand on the table turning into a tight fist. "With the video going out again, it would really trigger those haunting memories of the past," he added, Lei Zhao looking at him seriously.

He never thought that he would have a serious conversation with Wang Lu, his wife\'s ex-husband. Both of them hated each other but with how they are talking to each other now, it made him realize that they both share one thing in common.

Protecting Yan Mei with all their might—with everything they could.

"So… what do we do know?"

Lei Zhao asked, snapping both of them out of their own thoughts. Wang Lu sighed as he tapped his fingers on the table, his eyes wandering to the sea as he thought what both of them would do just so they could protect Yan Mei from this man.

"We have no choice but to investigate further. I told you what I know, you have to tell me what you know, too," he said, Lei Zhao nodding as he got an extra pen drive, giving it to Wang Lu.

"I saw a video that may help us," he said, Wang Lu, looking at the pen drive as he got it from Lei Zhao. "Watch it later when you get home. I made extra copies just in case. Then if you find something out, tell me what you know and we can branch out other plans from there."

"Alright," Wang Lu said, nodding as he kept the pen drive safely in his wallet before putting it back in his pocket.

"Thank you, Wang Lu," Lei Zhao thanked him, slightly surprising the man. "For having this talk with me. I know it must have been awkward, but we have no choice. I know both of us want to protect the same woman that we love."

Hearing this, a light scoff came from Wang Lu. For some reason, a small smile appeared on his face even though he slightly felt bitter for being thanked by his ex-wife\'s husband.

Both of them hated each other, but Wang Lu agreed that Lei Zhao was right. Both of them shared the same goal. They want to protect Yan Mei to keep her safe.

It is indeed an unusual alliance.

"Alright," Wang Lu said, standing up as he bothered not to finish his breakfast that Lei Zhao treated him. "I have to go, before Feng Mei could see us together."

Seeing that Wang Lu was already leaving, even Lei Zhao stood up, stopping him in his tracks as he called out to him.

"Wang Lu."

The man turned his back to look at his ex-wife\'s husband. He knew that he is nothing compared to Lei Zhao but since Yan Mei\'s safety is at stake, he would have to work with him even though it hurt his ego.

Everything—all… for Yan Mei.

"I know it is not my place to say this, but I know that Yan Mei did not cheat on you."

Surprised with what he said, Wang Lu blinked his eyes a few times. He was at a loss for words as Lei Zhao continued talking, speaking his thoughts out as he made an alliance with Wang Lu.

"I hope you don\'t blame yourself for what happened. It has nothing to do with you," Lei Zhao said, Wang Lu\'s eyes widening as he did not expect these words coming from the man he hated. "We\'ll all have the answers soon. I know Yan Mei wouldn\'t do that to you. I know something is up."

For some reason, Wang Lu felt comforted by his nemesis\' words. He scoffed, rolling his eyes at Lei Zhao as a sincere smile flashed on his face, replying to what he said.

"You don\'t have to tell me all this," he said, Wang Lu turning his back so he won\'t have to face him. "Good bye, Lei Zhao. I\'ll let you know what I find out."

With his retreating figure, Lei Zhao sighed as he shook his head, resting his back on the rest of his seat as he looked at the unconsumed meals in front of him.

He thought that one both of them would start talking, they would end up arguing with each other. It turns out that the opposite happened. Their conversation was actually productive—pieces coming together like a jigsaw puzzle in order to give a clearer picture.

With that, a smile flashed on Lei Zhao\'s face as he looked at the sea, feeling lighter with how the two of them talked.

For some reason, Lei Zhao found himself trusting Wang Lu. The other felt the same way, too. How ironic it is that the woman that they love turned out to be the bridge in forming an alliance.

Lei Zhao sighed as he looked up to his secretary who was still standing beside him as he finalized the notes that he had taken down during their conversation.

"Ye Xing," Lei Zhao called out to him, getting his attention.

"Yes, Mr. Lei Zhao?"

A smile crept his face as a light chuckle came from him, making Ye Xing curious as to what he could be possibly laughing about.

"That man… he did not even bother eating the breakfast we got for him," he said, Ye Xing, cocking his head to the side in wonder.

"Do you want it as take out, or…"

"No," Lei Zhao shook his head, "Instead, have it with me. I don\'t want eating alone, too, as I wait for my wife."

"O-oh!" Ye Xing was rather surprised to have heard this, yet he still complied.

With that, the two had been talking over breakfast the possible plans of what could happen next. They even had a run down of what they have found out from the video and from what they have found out from the conversation a while ago so they could make sure that they could reduce the loopholes of their investigation.

Soon enough, they may be able to end this issue once and for all…
