Chapter 357 - Mail

Huo Ling\'s eyes widened and his pupils shrank. Who - ?! he thought and sharply turned. Fortunately, Lu Si\'s and Jonathan\'s instruction to not speak was engraved in his mind or he would have instinctively spoke his thoughts, which would definitely expose himself once his voice was heard. That one, he is a man. And two, he is the real Huo Ling and he isn\'t a random woman the \'prince\' who is celebrating his \'birthday\' tonight have chosen as his female companion.

It seems like the other person, who emerged from the darkness and is slowly walking towards him, doesn\'t need him to speak, either, since he didn\'t spoke again after he said those words. He just looked at Huo Ling. Likewise, Huo Ling just looked at him. One standing and is looking down at the one below. Meanwhile, the other one is sitting and is looking up at the one above.

Everything is silent around them. But, the more silent it is, the scarier it is. Since silence removes the sounds around you – the distractions, making you ponder more on the thoughts you currently have.. Whether they are good thoughts, or bad thoughts… who knows except you?

Finally, it was Huo Ling who can\'t stand the deadlock between them. Not because he is impatient, but because his neck is starting to ache because of looking up to the other person to see his face and identity whether he is an ally or an enemy. He slightly lowered his head.

The other person seemed to notice it and he reached his hand out to him, indicating for Huo Ling to hold it and he will pull him up. But, he saw Huo Ling didn\'t move. He seemed like he doesn\'t like to speak, so he was forced to speak now in order to help Huo Ling. "I killed Baron Wallace\'s third son because he tried to harm you." He explained.

Huo Ling didn\'t react and just kept his head lowered.

"Your Highness." He spoke. His words revealed that he knows he is Huo Ling.

"Who are you?" Huo Ling finally spoke, since the other already knows he is the real prince.

"The eighth son of the king of Aghna. Raul Malhi." The man answered.

Huo Ling froze. So, the other is also a prince. He remembered seeing his name as one of the guests in the guests list Jonathan sent. "What do you want?" he asked.

"I want the documents." Raul answered.

Huo Ling\'s brows knitted. "What documents?" he asked.

"Don\'t play dumb." Raul frowned. "The mail you received on…" his voice trailed off when he saw the confused expression on Huo Ling\'s face.

It wasn\'t that Huo Ling is good at acting. In fact, he is very bad at it. And, he really doesn\'t know what document are they talking about, nor for what purpose it is. And, he doesn\'t have even an inkling of why is he being chased for his life.

So, Raul saw a sincere bewildered expression on Huo Ling\'s face. "You don\'t know…" he muttered.

Huo Ling stared at Raun for a while before Raul\'s words finally sank in his mind. His eyes widened and he stared at Raul in shock. "You… you\'re… you\'re the one who wanted me dead?!" he asked.

"Not dead." Raul said.

"But… but… you\'re the one who sent those assassins to kill… capture me?!" Huo Ling said.

"Not only me." Raul answered.

Since Raul didn\'t deny, Huo Ling didn\'t think much of Raul\'s answer. "Why?" he asked.

Raul stared at him. "You really do not know a thing." He said before he lowered his hand that Huo Ling didn\'t grab.

Huo Ling looked at him.

"Our kingdom isn\'t like yours that is peaceful." Raul spoke. "That only needs one, legitimate heir and the succession is guaranteed. No matter how weak or strong the heir is, he will inherit the throne." He said as he walked away from Huo Ling. "Our kingdom seeks power. Only sees power. If you are weak, then you will die in the ditch." He frowned. "I am the eighth in line. So, as long as the seven brothers before me will die, I will be the king!" he clenched his fist. "But, every one of them is stronger than before them. I definitely won\'t have the chance to be the king in this lifetime. Thus, I – " he turned to Huo Ling, only to see Huo Ling was already gone from the place he has seen him!

Raul\'s eyes widened and he immediately turned, only to see a pair of stiletto shoes lying on the floor. Huo Ling obviously left them so he can run faster to escape from him!

"ARGH!!!" Raul roared and punched the wall. He had gone to see Huo Ling alone since the other is harmless, thus isn\'t a threat to him. Also, he doesn\'t want Kong Chuan to know. He knows that if Huo Ling has fallen in Kong Chuan\'s hands, Huo Ling will suffer before he dies.

As a fellow royalty, he doesn\'t want Huo Ling to be disgraced by Kong Chuan, since he knows what it is for a royalty to be disgraced. Fortunately, Kong Chuan was too confident on capturing Huo Ling, thus he managed to approach Huo Ling unimpeded.

He immediately ran to find Huo Ling. If those documents have fallen in the MI6\'s hands, he would definitely suffer something worse than death if his father and elder brothers know. His name was there, as well as Kong Chuan\'s. So, he wanted to remove his name in the documents.

"Damn that blasted person!" he cursed as he ran while wildly looked around. The documents were kept in the hands of the third party. He and Kong Chuan don\'t know who is the person the third party entrusted the documents to.

They are all cunning. But, because they were too careful, they didn\'t know that the entrusted person screwed them all. He sent the documents away, to somewhere they won\'t know before he committed suicide. Since the third party has his security being threatened for what his own person did, he finally told he and Kong Chuan who is the person he entrusted the documents with.

This person is actually one of his male pets. Because he felt jealous with the other male pets, seeing that the documents looked very important, he sent it away to anger the man – the third party in the business deal. Then, he jumped off from a bridge like a martyr.

This male pet is an invigilator. He supervised an exam and found out that one of the examinees is a male pet of the man like him. In anger, he took the examinee\'s papers along with the documents and thrown them away in trash. He was about to burn them, but another invigilator saw him and noticed the exam papers. Then, he reminded him that the exam papers are to be mailed today. He took the exam papers from him, doing him a favor of mailing the exam papers for him since he will also be mailing the exam papers of the examinees he supervised.

The third party, Kong Chuan followed the mailing company that will be mailing the exam papers, only to discover that they mailed the exam papers in a wrong address. And, that address is Huo Ling\'s, who didn\'t know he was unintentionally implicated and got dragged in this mess.

Raul remembered Huo Ling\'s confused expression earlier. Based from his expression, he looked like he still hasn\'t found out yet that he was mailed the wrong exam papers. He is supposed to receive his own students\' exam papers that his fellow teachers gathered as his keepsake. But, who would know that fate will play a cruel trick on him?

Raul stopped when he saw he reached a dead end. As long as the documents aren\'t found out, he will be safe. He thought before he sharply inhaled, fixed his clothes, then walked back to the outer court to watch the comet in the sky along with the other guests. If they will keep chasing Huo Ling, Huo Ling might find out the importance – the secret, of those documents. Then, they\'ll definitely be screwed over! They\'ll just have to search Huo Ling\'s house upside down again to find those documents!

Thinking this, he looked for Kong Chuan to speak to him. Meanwhile, the head butler and other servants of the palace are accompanying the guests to prevent, or minimize, them from leaving the outer court. Jonathan and Lu Si told them to keep the guests in the outer court and serve them the best that they could. The MI6 then will keep the assassins from going to the outer court\'s direction to keep the guests safe and not make them notice anything.

So, the battle between the MI6 and the assassins became fiercer. Not only the MI6 had to keep the assassins from finding Huo Ling and kill him or capture him, but they also had to deal with the guests.
