Birth of the Devilish CEO: So what if i'm a Lady?

Chapter 82: The duel__1

When Yi Lan was within sight, he couldn't believe what he saw. When he was in the shower, he heard a car's horn but he was doubtful about who drove into the Mansion. He didn't want to raise his hopes up and later get disappointed if she was not the one. He was so happy to see her sitting down so peacefully. She looks so beautiful in her fighting clothes. Getting close to where they were sitting, Xiao Bai took the initiative to stand up from where she was sitting to another position. She took a seat close to Yun Yi.

"Wow! look at who we have here?Our ever elegant and beautiful Young Miss Lie? It's a pleasure meeting you after one week of no contact," Yi Lan said, sitting down in the exact position where Xiao Bai stood up earlier.

"Third bro, it has been so long we saw you wearing this killer fine quality leather fighting clothes. And Third bro, sister-in-law and Miss Xiao has been waiting for you for quite some time now," Tan Fan said while taking a look to see Miss Lie's reaction. She deliberately avoided taking a glance at Yi Lan, it was as though she was afraid to look at Yi Lan's face.

"Sister-in-law, it has been quite long since you last saw our Third bro's handsome face but its very weird that you don't even want to spare him a glance and you even ignored his greetings," Yun Yi stated. Everyone present was really eager for them to settle their differences especially Yun Yi. With Yi Lan's foul mood combined with Young Miss Lie's bad mood, everywhere was boring for him. He could not bring himself to joke around or else he might just end up being beaten to dead.

"Was he referring to me earlier? Maybe I didn't hear him because he didn't speak loud enough for me to hear," Lie Ruge replied leaving everyone dumbfounded by her words. "How could she lie without even batting an eye," Yun Yi and Tan Fan thought.

"Oh my gosh! Ge'er when did you become such an expert in lying, you detested lies with all your beings but since the arrival of Young Master Yi, you kept on breaking your principles. I could bare recognize my darling again," Xiao Bai exclaim in bewilderment. Yi Lan took everyone by surprise when he pulled Lie Ruge very close to him in an embrace, "I have missed you so much. I really do, so can you not treat me like a stranger anymore huh? Because it really hurts down here," Yi Lan whispered in to her ears while touching the location of his heart to demonstrate the severity of the pain. The others could not hear what he said, they just stared at them curiously.

Lie Ruge was frozen at the exact spot. She couldn't move. Yi Lan's action took her by surprise ,she never expected him to draw her so close to him.She got so intoxicated with his scented rose shower gel. She really felt lost in his dark eyes, she couldn't control herself. She felt the urge to kiss him right there and then but she decided to resist her desires with the power she could mutter up.

"Do you normally used rose extract shower gel or lotion? isn't that supposed to be for the ladies?" Lie Ruge whispered back in return.Yi Lan was bewildered,he has tried countless methods in order to make her speak to him but she finally spoke to him because of the shower gel,"What a weird girl", Yi Lan thought.

"Do you like the shower gel? This is my first time using it but if you really love it then I will continue using it just for you",Yi Lan replied excitedly.

"Ge'er! what are you guys whispering about?Don't tell me you are keeping secrets from us hmmm?" Xiao Bai asked cutely.

"What are you talking about? I was just asking him a question but don't even try to ask me what the question was about because I'm not gonna tell you and Yun Yi, when are we gonna start the duel or didn't you guys prepare the place we were gonna use?" Lie Ruge asked. It wasn't a new thing to them anymore that she just changed the topic of discussion.

"We were actually waiting for You and Miss Xiao's arrival, so that we we would all have lunch together. The chef has already started preparing the delicacies, I think we just have to wait for a few minutes then the food will be ready but we can use that time to share all our adventures during this period of one week," Yun Yi suggested.

"Oh! That is so nice of you guys. I never knew that the three musketeers were so considerate. You guys are the best," Xiao Bai replied enthusiastically.

"I'm not interested in eating right now. We are already fully set for the duel so how about we go ahead with the duel first,at least the food can wait till then hmmm, don't you guys agree with me?" Lie Ruge asked expectantly. Everyone's mood was ruined the minute they heard Lie Ruge's suggestion. Lie Ruge's question was as if they had a choice to reject her suggestion when in reality she didn't leave them with any choice. They couldn't object her suggestion.

"That will be nice too, but you are not allowed to duel and exceed dinner time alright?" Xiao Bai replied reluctantly.

"How can you say we should not exceed dinner's time? Anyways, It all depends on how long Young Master Yi can last before I defeat him," Lie Ruge said proudly. She was so sure she was going to win the duel because she knows Yi Lan's weakness.

"Sister-in-law,I love your confidence but don't let your guard down because Third bro is not an easy opponent",Yun Yi advised.

"Let's not waste any more time. Come one let's go. It has been such a long time since I last practice my skills on someone, so I really want to see how much I have improved during that period," Lie Ruge said a little excited.

"Ok sister-in-law, we can see you are fully set. Let me be your guide to the place the duel is gonna take place," Tan Fan replied. The place they were going to duel was situated out of the main building. It was another building on its own although it was somehow connected to the main Mansion. The place was located on the second floor. Tan Fan led the ladies through different corners and corridors before they finally reached the exact room the duel was going to be held.Stepping into the room Xiao Bai opened her mouth in bewilderment at the sight that greeted them.

"What the heck? Are you guys dealing in weapons too?" Xiao Bai exclaim in shock. The room was in form of a very large hall. It was so huge compared to the outside view. Different kind of weapons you could ever think of was displayed at different angles in the hall.

"Why the surprised look? This is just a little out of all the weapons and instruments that Third bro has acquired," Tan Fan said while showing her around. Xiao Bai stopped taking a look at the weapons when she found out that she didn't even have an idea of almost all the weapons. According to Yun Yi, most of the weapons has not yet being launched out for the world to see that is why she was not familiar with most of them.

"Wow! What a large collection. I think I might need one of these weapons very soon," Lie Ruge replied.

"You are free to take any of the weapons you so desire," Yi Lan replied.

"That is nice. Ok guys let's get to work," Lie Ruge shouted in order to attract others attention.

"Ge'er! How come you are so excited about this duel because I don't really understand you?" Xiao Bai asked curiously.

"Who is gonna be the judge?" Lie Ruge asked avoiding Xiao Bai's question.

"Judge? Nobody is gonna be the judge. We are just gonna get entertained by your performance but the rule is anyone who surrenders or get almost attacked in a vital place will automatically be the loser," Yun Yi replied ecstatically.

"So, which one of you is gonna pick the first martial arts you guys are gonna compete on?" Tan Fan asked looking inquiringly at the two of them.

"Miss Lie, how about you pick your choice of martial arts?" Yi Lan said.

"I choose combat," Lie Ruge said nonchalantly.
