Naruto In The World Of Beautiful CEO 72 One Fire To Melt The Ice

Among the fierce warriors and warrioress, a valiant yet charming gal, with her onyx eyes observed the clash between two influence. Her cold visage declared an absolute command which even deity not dared to defy.

"Aim your gun properly!"

"Watch your sideline, don't let the enemy flanking you!"

"Stay together, I don't need your bravado!"

The strict in her tone instructed their every movement, with series of precise and awareness, they counted every single bullet that came out from their container, making sure the iron pellets didn't smack the concrete cement or machinery instead.

Blaze and raze, decimated the flock of pathetic hyenas. The alpha winced, grieved for the loss in this fated dispute. Lapse of time galloped like a horse on the race. Soon, not a single men braved their fang against the might of this people any more. Sword and shield no longer squealed.

The charming leader stood in front of the head of this people, triumph smeared her face, "Are you willing to fall behind my society, or you prefer to date your burial sooner?" She brandished her 9mm pistol and kissed the man's forehead with it.

"You have 10 seconds to choose!"

The lady started counting while the man farted and sweating. The future indeed always unfold in an unexpected way; morning, he woke up beside a young missus of someone's daughter, dallied with beers and fast foods all day, yammering the bunch of dumba.s.s who lollygagged on the production floor. Yet now, he hunkers before this daisy, humiliate while the barrel of death prepares to extinguish the life out of him. The precious life of this daddy reduces to a mere ten frigging seconds by this hateful lady.

"3... 2... 1..."

"OK, OK, I follow you, please spare my life!" His face grimaced while the pair of eyes dulled with fear.

The lady curled her lips, a devilish expression adorned her diamond shape face, "But I already finish counting, and there is no extended time, sorry~"

"No, wait!"

*Bang!*

A spark bloomed from the mouth of the gun, punctured a hole on the man's b.l.o.o.d.y bun. The lady took her time wandered around, circling the helpless people that stayed on the ground. She put both hands behind her perky b.u.t.t, eyes without care bullied any subject she sees.

"You~" She halted beside a person with a face akin to a mouse; high cheekbone, protruding nose, and two-thumbed out piece of tooth. The lady smiled, her eyes honestly stared at him, "will you follow me or follow him?"

"You! You! I choose you!" In a heartbeat, the mouse man nodded his head. He had witnessed the lady's treatment toward the dead boss, no sane men would give her offer another seconds to think.

"Umm, let's see..." she glanced upward, brought back her hands from her back, "no... too easy change loyalty, not trustworthy, bye-bye."

She smoothly moved her gun and shot the poor's man head, spewed out some blood and painted the people in red.

The valiant lady hoisted her gun, she faced her people, "Let's take these men back to our base and gave them a proper treatment."

Pale stamped their face one by one while their mind started picturing what they might do to them. Not to mention the fear they had for the red breasted trench coat lady. One of them pasted his forehead to the cemented ground, his tone filled with entreaty, "Please, please, don't kill me, I'm willing to submit wholeheartedly, I promised never betray you or my whole family will face great tribulations!"

"Oh, look at this, we have yet to started but already have a winner!" she shook her head, the people on her side also broke out a laughter, the clear mocking tone they possessed succeed on igniting a flame of irritation. The lady only let out a simple chuckle, she ignored the low bent person and strolled her way toward her people, "take them away."

*Bzzt* *Bzzt*

In the neat of time, while her people busied on shipping the human cargo into a truck, the thin and flat gadget buzzed her pocket, she took it out and brightened her eyes as soon as she saw the Id of the caller, she tapped the screen without hesitation and placed it beside her right ear, "Did someone just miss me?"

Her face glowed as bright as a sun, her heart thumped like a piston.

Alas, the smile she bore soon faded, her eyebrows wrinkled, and nose slightly crinkled. But, almost less than a second, her jaw slacked and body trembled, she put down her phone and roared, "Change of plan! I won't return with you, Xiao Zhao, come with me, NOW!"

The young man jumped in fright then dashed toward her in a hurry, they both entered a Humvee and he sped the car out of the area. Confused eyes and chaotic brain lingered in the rest of the people.

Along the way, the lady urged Xiao Zhao to drive faster, even forced him beyond the speed limit, albeit the young man unable to comprehend the situation but the nervous in her tone enough to trig some alarm inside his brain. He stepped on the pedal and "frooom~" away. They pa.s.sed a hidden patrol officer, the lamp on the roof of the patrol car blinked annoyingly and horrendous siren crashed the silent. Xiao Zhao glimpsed on the middle mirror and twitched his lips.

"Ignore the cop, just focus on driving!" She said in an impatient tone, received a large rolls eyes from the young man, What do you think I am trying to do?

He spat a "tch", since the patrol car was like a gum that stuck underneath a sole, they raced along the highway and neither seemed willing to give up. The lady also became annoyed, the temptation to just pull over and shot the cop to death became so ludicrously attractive.

Wait, pull over? she frowned a while before sneering deviously.

Xiao Zhao turned the left sign indicator, slowly decelerated the car and headed toward the rail guard. The lady on the right opened her door and went outside while still facing the same direction as the cars, she raised both hands. Seeing the "sincerity" of this speeding car, the patrol, who previously planned to stop right beside the car, postpone her idea and stopped behind the perpetrator.

The officer gathered her stuff and went outside, she walked in a relaxed manner while holding a contemptuous thought, Trying to beat me in a race, eh? Don't you know that I'm a Pro like Schumacher?

The moment she halfway arrived, the lady suddenly swung her hand and threw something besides her left waist, it traveled through the air and crashed against the patrol car right light, in the same time, Xiao Zhao without hesitation, trod on the gas and accelerated the car in its utmost speed.

In the nick of time, the lady plunged into the gap between the pa.s.senger's door, her left foot and hand held onto the car while her another pair of limbs stayed on the door. Her long hair flapped angrily as the wind blew on them in a harsh manner. She's been in the situation faster than this, so this strong gale resembled a child play.

The officer stared at the disappearing figure in an absentminded face, she couldn't imagine such scenario could be exist, the woman didn't even look back to aim properly yet she still capable to precisely hit her target, in the moment of distraction, a big shock distraction, the car suddenly sped away, not waiting for the woman to enter it first, the driver just drove as if intended to left its pa.s.senger behind, but who knew the woman could do another shocking feat.

She stomped her feet, her face held a great deal of anger on it. This was the second time someone trick and beat her in street patrolling task, her grudge with that hateful handsome man was not even yet to settle!

She eventually sighed, OK, maybe I'm not really fit for the task, I must learn not to infuriate my superior next time...

The lady already occupied the shotgun, Xiao Zhao laughed in satisfaction and praised his elder sister capability was really outstanding, but the object of adoration didn't feel flattered at all, even for the fact that she just lost her favorite dagger, what laid inside her heart right now, was that she only wanted to arrive at the White Cross hospital as fast as possible.

(***)

In the not so narrowed hallway, where the hazardous signs plastered all over the doors on both sides, Ruoxi sat on the cushion belonged to a bench, placed across the wide window. She wiggled her bottom, this was a furniture inside one of the most distinguished health and care facilities within the metropolis city yet she unable to find a comfort in it. Her mind jumbled with a lot of thought and simulated many scenarios of the inevitable meeting.

She bitterly smiled, This actually a lot harder to face than I thought it should. Yeah, how many times do you ever get a chance to meet someone that is your boyfriend another mate? Not a fling, not a side dish, a one h.e.l.l of a legitimate mate. What a proper social interaction that serves as a result of the best outcome from this situation? In the eye of law and society, her status supposedly just a mistress while I, on the other hand, a rightful wife.

But in the status of a relationship, we both actually stand in the same stratum, a girlfriend... But she has known him far longer than me, how the heck I can compete with that?

Ruoxi shook her head, she gave this issue too much a headache, she might as well just let the ball rolled and watched how it would stop.

Not far from her seat, the elder of the Liu family, talked with someone over his phone, his face slightly less tense compared to a few minutes ago, he took down the phone and glanced to Ruoxi, "Good news Miss. Young Mistress succeeds in retrieving the heal for Mr. Naruto's dark corruption, she's on her way to the airport right now."

Ruoxi's eyes revealed a sincere grat.i.tude, "Thank you, Senior Liu, it must be difficult for Ms. Ruyan to achieve this, I promise I'll fulfill any condition or repayment she wishes from me."

Liu Fu laughed, his venerable face shone like a beacon, "Miss don't have to pay anything, Mr. Naruto has done a great service for us, he also save a lot of people lives, some of them even not a person from China, you know how troublesome it is if these foreigners died in our land, right?"

In these past few years, the international relationship between the countries in the same region had been crammed with a lot of disputes, from the right of ownership of some islands and territories to the policy of research and development of a weapon. The tense thread that could easily be cut at any time made each higher up carefully conduct any activities and the application of their countries' regulation, such as tourist protection and international trading.

Ruoxi as a person who also dabbled in trading which already went international truly understood the importance of this endeavor. She breathed a relief sigh while stressed out the cost Naruto had to pay.

"Least I still owe Ms. Ruyan a great deal of grat.i.tude..." she lightly smiled.

Liu Fu nodded, but his face became hesitated, "Now, we just need to solve Mr. Naruto's blood loss complication, Miss, how big your confidence in the person you called?"

Ruoxi's smile faltered, she set her eyes downward, staring at her own thighs, "Truth be told, it's almost close to zero. But... do I have the leisure to choose an alternative?" She glanced at the elder, a faint smile no longer lagged behind, "Senior... have you seen a miracle before?"

He stunned by her "out of nowhere" question, the elder frowned then soon faced Ruoxi again, "Before I become Young Mistress' protector, I used to be an adventurous person...

My journey on earth had opened my eyes to many strange things that sometimes one logic unable to explain, no matter how hard you beat on it.

After... some hardship killed my courage to travel further, I thought that I'll never see another miracle again..."

Liu Fu glanced at the window on the front of him, the wrinkle on his face softened, as if he appeared younger 10 years, "I guess... I was wrong." Then he spoke without moving his eyes away, "How about Miss, have you witness a miracle?"

Ruoxi followed his movement and settled her eyes on the man who lay in an unconscious. Her mind flashes back, to the first time of they encounter, in the dim place reeked of alcohol, her brain was too mushy to recognize the imminent threat, her vulgarish oddly behavior almost marked a shame for the lifetime. Yet he came, and he saved...

The setting changed, alcohol smell had gone, replaced by a fragrant bitter of a coffee, painful wind ignited her depression, end of the line rushed approaching. Yet he came, and he saved...

Frame by frame, time and time, the scene rolled like a tape of negative film.

She slowly nodded, her soft voice rang like a mosquito buzz, "Too many for my liking..."

Both old and young people observed the man across the room, filling with hope and miracle soon to come by.

Tik...tik...

Click...click...

Three twins knocked and beat around the field. The youngest one pitter-patter, while the older one lollygagged, and the oldest one dawdled. But together, they moved forward, proposing the time to sail the ship.

*Thud!*

The door breached open, a lady in red coat dashed in. Face flushed red, drenched in perspiration, her upper part of the body heaved like a bouncing ball, went up and down.

Ruoxi stood up, moving to face the lady with a beauty that gasped even her own heart. But the lady just went past her right shoulder...

Without a slight pause, she ran toward the window and stopped right beside it. She pasted on the gla.s.s and body shivered without permission. Ruoxi's expression froze for quite sometimes, she declined her head, bit her lips for the biting sour result. Liu Fu also stood from his seat, observed the shaky lady with a wrinkled forehead, he approached her from behind, "Um, Miss... may I know who you are?"

"Why are you like this?" She didn't even heed the elder question, talking as if no other people existed within this room.

The elder frowned getting deeper, It's been a long time since someone dares to ignore me like this, who is this lady?

"Miss, are you a friend of Mr. Naruto or the young lady?" The elder raised his eyebrows. Attempted to communicate with the somehow strange woman.

"Take it..." The woman in red coat mumbled. Albeit he's a little bit upset from being ignored, but her words trig his eyebrows to crook on their spot, "Excuse me?"

"Take it anything you need from me, be it heart or eye, take it away, so long he survives, so long he alive..."

Shock not only filled the elder's face, but even Ruoxi also snapped her face at her, mouth gaped without holding.

She willing to go that far for him? Ruoxi thought while her face still in a daze.

"Miss, we do need a blood donor for Mr. Naruto, but he possessed an uncharted blood type, so we are not sure whether your blood will match him, no matter what type you possess..." Liu Fu sped his mouth.

"Then what are you waiting?!" She threw her face at him, glaring her somehow moistened eyes, "quick test my blood!"

The elder twitched his eyes at her commandeering tone, You still suckled on your mom when I'm already battled a nine hundred pound Ligre for G.o.d sake!

Nevertheless, with a time of the essence, Liu Fu took the weird hot-tempered lady into the lab, leaving the dejected Ruoxi alone in the hall. She stood there, for a long time...

She had dealt with the most vocal merchant before, haggled for a price that smacked the person down.

She once met with the b.i.t.c.hiest woman from the opposing company, turned the hag into a dry living stick with her witty action.

She targetted by a pervert officer in the past, now he currently lived the rest of his life, staring at the iron bar.

But to be ignored, as if her worth not even close to mentioning with a dirt on a pebble. She unable to give a proper respond toward that, how can you handle someone who not even gave you a single glimpse? She didn't like the helpless feeling, but her mind devoid from any clues whatsoever now.

Ruoxi sighed, Maybe I'm overthinking this... she just too worry about him at the moment.

It's true that ignorance was a bliss, but being the target of ignorance was painful as h.e.l.l. Ruoxi walked toward the window, she gazed at the man with somehow complicated emotion.

Am I capable of doing something like her? Sacrificing my limbs for you so you can walk? My senses so you won't be blind? My vocal cord so you can talk?

Naruto... would you do the same for me?

Ruoxi tapped the gla.s.s with her palm, her breath steamed against the transparent wall.

Ouch!

At this moment, she suddenly felt an ache from the back of the palm, she held her hand and rubbed the sore spot, it's like someone just pinched it, not in torture manner, more like playful naughty way. She absentmindedly stared at her own palm, the gear inside her mind also paused and glanced at her palm too.

She shifted her eyes toward the man inside the room, her mouth occasionally parched.

"It's you..." A single bead of tear dripped down her cheek, "even in your sleep you take care of me..."

Then she heard the door opened again, Liu Fu strolled in but the woman nowhere within a sight, Ruoxi strode toward the elder, her eyes filled with expectant.

Liu Fu paused his expression for a while, then... he nodded and smiled.

Ruoxi held her mouth in the instant, her eyes glistened with a reddish watermark. She ran pa.s.sed the elder, without even giving him any well-mannered goodbye. But the elder didn't look offended, he quickly turned around and said quite loud, "go right from the lobby, turn left on the first intersection, third door on your right."

She didn't stop, even when she being rude at him, she's not going to stop.

Run, run, and run...

That's the only thing inside her mind, not minding the heel hurt her sole, sweat dirtied her skin, and hot flaming her head. She's like a reindeer hopped in the forest, avoiding the tall and majestic trees with clumsy feet. She followed the path as instructed and soon arrived in a green colored door, she pushed it open without any hint. Her eyes caught three people inside; All of them were women wearing a different style of clothes. She ignored the other two and only focused her eyes on the woman in the bed. Her red coat had been long gone and she's now only in a white shirt. The eyes in the room directed at Ruoxi in surprises, one of the women in all pinkish uniform glared, "Who are you?! What are you doing here?!"

The roared fell into deaf ears, Ruoxi gazed at the lady on the bed, this time tears unable to contain any while longer, she strode forward and hugged the lady.

"Thank you... Thank you... Thank you..."

The lady at first surprised by the sudden act but softened her eyes eventually, with eyes glistened as well she brought up her left hand and rubbed Ruoxi's back. Both pretty and charming woman sunk in tears of joy.

One fire was enough to melt the ice.
