Chapter 278: Trigger

Jiang Yue woke up from another restless sleep. Something in her mother's journal had been bugging her. Seemed like she couldn't fathom something important. However, she decided to just forget about it and focus on everything that would make her find Li Qiang.

She immediately got prepared and had breakfast with Fu Jin. Today, she was planning to do some final interviews with some outstanding applicants for her AI project. Since it was a new team, Jiang Yue wanted to be careful and chose the right people for the job.

After having her breakfast she instantly went to Wang Empire, to start another busy day. However, just before she could enter the building, she suddenly felt goosebumps on her nape. She halted her steps and roamed her eyes around her. She felt strange as if someone was watching her.

After thinking how nonsensical would that be, Jiang Yue continued walking inside the building and into her office.

It would be a very tiring day for her.

"You have a meeting with the head researcher of our competitor Angler in thirty minutes, they are just one of our competitors, who wanted to set up a meeting. I believe they want to talk about collaboration. Anyway, by the noon, you will have your first interview with the applicants for the new team that we are creating. Also, Fu Jin has called, he said he was unable to reach your phone. He wanted to inform you that he will be coming for lunch. He said, he will cook your favorite food, which is so romantic by the way. I wonder if I can find a man like that? Aiyah... with the way I look..." Shen Rong awkwardly closed her mouth when she noticed Jiang Yue stare at her.

"Sorry," she said embarrassed by her words. "So... after lunch, you will have another meeting with Visualization research group for the VR game that we are creating for Moon Corp. Aside from that, you need to meet with the head designer for Cherish for our clothing line. He wants to see all of our designs."

Shen Rong continued narrating everything scheduled for Jiang Yue that day, while they were walking towards her office.

When Jiang Yue arrived at her office, she immediately started reading some of the most important documents that needed her signature. Jiang Yue could only shake her head in helplessness.

However, while doing all of this, Jiang Yue would sometimes glance at the floor to ceiling window in her office. For some reason, she still had that eerie feeling from the morning. It was as if something dangerous was staring straight at her.

"Shen Rong?" she called her, using the office phone."Is there a way to cover the walls?"

"Uh... I can have the people from maintenance..."

"You know what? Nevermind. Don't mind it." She said, trying to ignore the uneasy feeling in her mind.

Meanwhile, a few buildings away from Wang Empire's building, a middle-aged man was staring at Jiang Yue, using his sniper rifle's magnifier. The woman under his scope seemed to be very busy.

She was reading, then signing some papers. Once again, he adjusted his scope, making sure that he could clearly see his target, marking her. He then adjusted his breathing, as he put his pointer finger at the trigger.

However, before he could pull the trigger, a cold hard object was pressed at the back of his head. "Hands off the trigger, or we will see which bullet hits its target first." A cold voice ordered, making him shiver.

He immediately let the trigger go. If someone made him choose between his life and his target's life, then he would choose himself, without batting an eyelid.

"Get away from your rifle." The voice said again. It was a deep, cold voice, however, it was also obvious that it came from a woman.

He slowly steped back from the rifle and raised his hand. It was just a woman, he was not that afraid of week women. He could always defeat her, if not by gun, then by his brute force. He was sure that he would be able to overpower the woman with a single slap.

He couldn't help, but wonder who would dare interrupt him, while he was on a mission. Didn't she know who he was?

"You are making a very big mistake," he said, as he made a side step preparing to give the woman behind him a surprise kick.

However, who would have thought that a muffled gunshot would interrupt his plans. He immediately felt a sudden pain on his leg, instantly making him kneel. He let out an inaudible scream, as he tried to stop the blood on his wound.

"You... shot me!" he glared at the woman, who was wearing a hoodie. He couldn't clearly see her face, but he was able to see her silver-gray eyes that were staring coldly at him.

"Your biggest mistake was trying to kill my daughter. Your second mistake was working for Li Qiang," the voice said, before another muffled gunshot was heard. This time it was directed towards the man's forehead.

"Stupid!" the woman muttered, before she heard a ringing noise from what she assumed was the killer's phone.
