Chapter 129: 128 Minding Your Own Business

"Anyway, I've heard that just like stolen moments are magical, stolen kisses are the sweetest. And that makes them beautiful."

"Did I ask you?"

Ru's voice startled Adia and she immediately shook her head. "I thought you might be interested in it since you asked about kisses."

Ru lifted her fist as if ready to punch which made Adia close her eyes anticipating a jaw-breaking pain. But it didn't come. She gingerly opened her eyes to see Ru scowling at her.

"I had lost my mind out of curiosity. I'm not curious anymore. Don't ever mention this conversation. Like never ever!" Ru warned her in a stern voice.

"My lips are sealed. You won't hear a peep from me." Adia answered courteously.

Ru sat back on the high stool and propped her head on her hand. "Let's get back to business."

"Yes, boss!" Adia saluted and straightened up again.

"Tell me what do you know about Ji Family and Xiao Family. What kind of interactions do they have?" Ru questioned solemnly.

'Huh? How is this related to our business? Master, you are one hell of a person.' Adia shook her head inconspicuously. "Well, we know that Xiao Family is the first-ranked clan of the High Summit while Ji Family is the second-ranked one."

"That even I know. Tell me something else," Ru said in a terrible mood.

"Apart from that, both families don't have any interactions." Ru looked inquiringly at her while Adia went on, "Although they both are not at each other's throat, they are not any better either. Before coming to China, we did a thorough investigation of High Summit members. Both families share a terrible personal interaction."

"There isn't anything odd other than that?" Ru asked again.

"Well, it's said that Xiao and Ji's Families used to be very cordial to each other since Old Madam Ji and the late mistress Xiao were best friends. But the situation changed later on." Adia told everything that she had heard through various sources.

"Reason?"

"No one knows. Both families sealed off the news using their influence. But whatever it was... It made both families declare cold-war against each other."

Ru took a deep breath as her mind conjured up a million possibilities. She needed an answer as to why Xiao Zhi Ren was a 'Xiao' and not a 'Ji'. Even though it had particularly nothing to do with her. Why the hell was she so curious about Xiao Zhi Ren's matter? She wasn't curious about him. She was born a curious cat. Yes! There is no other possible reason.

"Do thorough research on that reason. I need an answer to what made them declare a cold-war!" Ru ordered absentmindedly.

Adia didn't answer her and kept frowning to herself when Ru snapped, "What is it?"

"Master, do you mind me asking why are we prying into these families?" Adia asked keeping her running senses alert in fear that Ru would definitely throw something at her.

"What's the one thing your master can't do?" Ru asked her own question.

"Minding your own business," Adia answered in a hurry with certainty in her voice. As her words registered in her own mind, she looked terrified. "Master... I plead mercy."

'I can't really mind my own business. Forget it! I'm wasting my time. Let's focus on our own mission.' Ru thought to herself calmly trying hard not to kill Adia for being straightforward. "You know what... Let's forget it. Get back to the baseline."

Adia bowed her head and left in a hurry before her master could even change her mind all over again. She was familiar with her master's eccentric personality but today, Ru gave her a strange vibe. One which was out of her understanding.

Even Ru herself knew that she was an eccentric person but more importantly, she was a passionately curious one. She was told plenty of times that curiosity will get her killed one day. It was indeed her curiosity to see the outside world that led her so close to death.

But in her personal opinion, every curiosity had a reason for existing. It was like a spark that could either light an undistinguishable fire of endless possibilities or a fire that could burn the person as a whole. At this point in life, she wasn't scared of either of the climax.
