Ying Yue wanted to peak her head out and check the car out for herself but held herself back. Considering the time of night it was fairly dark already but it didn't mean she couldn't be seen. Keeping still in her spot she waited as the car drew closer into the parking lot. To her dismay it parked on the outer edge far away from her. As the car turned off, the door opened and just by the sound of their feet she could tell it was a couple. The distinct noise of two shoes against the pavement echoed as they walked towards to the restaurant. 

Sighing Ying Yue relaxed against her hiding spot. Part of her was disappointed that the car wasn't what they were looking for but it was unlikely the woman would appear on time. Socialities or the arrogant upper class always had a belief that others had to wait for them no matter what. As if people should be lucky that they had spared them any time and that waiting for them was a privilege of sorts. She hated people like that because they were usually the ones who had nothing valuable to offer. Confidence was always good to have but once you became arrogant there was an issue. That was because it implied that you were satisfied with your current status, people who worked to become rich always put effort in to keep growing. Who knew when they would be overthrown? Getting rich was easy, staying rich was hard. This was a lesson that she learned very young, money meant nothing and everything but hard work always paid off. Rich socalites who flaunted 'daddy's money' knew nothing about these concepts.

As she was passing time she made started making bets with herself on the type of woman who would appear. Judging by the voice she was around her age but snotty, so for one they would come in a luxurious car. Probably has a slim body and would wear a dress with some expensive heels. The mysterious woman didn't sound like she'd be one for casual wear or more formal attire. This was all just bets in her head of course, for all she knew the woman was the exact opposite. Breaking her thoughts was the sound of another car approaching. The sound of its engine was quieter but you could hear the crunch of the tires against the ground. 

'Was this finally her...?'

The car drove into the parking lot and towards the very front. She had intentionally hid herself a couple cars away from an open space. The car rolling in coincidentally went into this exact spot. There was a doubt again if this was the car or not but as the car remained on for a couple of minutes she was sure it was. Right on cue, Wang Jinghua stumbled out into the parking lot. Shifting to watch she went around the car to see Jinghua standing silently under the lampost. She made no effort to move forward and stood in the spot waiting for the other person to come towards her. 

The car door opened and a pale leg emerged out of it. The rest of the body slowly revealed itself and each part proved her assumptions right. Dressed in shiny heels and a tight dress the woman was the exact image of a socialite. When the woman walked into the light and towards Jinghua she could see that they had blonde hair. A suspicious feeling flooded inside of her as the behind of the woman looked very familiar. 

'No.....it can't be....this woman?!?!' Ying Yue could feel her irritation rise as the woman's voice and face was fully revealed. It was the blonde bimbo from a couple of days ago that had offered her money to leave Xi Long. She wanted to laugh at their current situation, all this stress and planning to capture this woman??? She was incapable of planning anything sinister. The expected fight scene she wanted or climax introduction of the mystery woman was disappointing. 

"Where's the camera?" The blonde woman spoke first. 

"Where's the money?" Wang Jinghua responded with a surprisingly confident tone. Ying Yue had to give props to this waitress for how calm she was acting know she had a blade against her throat a couple minutes back. She had even cleaned up her uniform and hair to look as everything was normal. 

"You!!! Do you know who I am?! I can destroy you!" The blonde woman spoke back with irritation in her voice. 

"Mr. Han is still inside, I can go inside right now and hand everything over to him."

"What makes you think you'll make it back in?" 

"Because my phone and all the other evidence is with a coworker who, if I do not come back inside within ten minutes, will deliver it to Mr.Han." 

"YOU!!!" There was clear anger as the blonde woman's voice rose a couple octaves. Stuffing a padded envelope into Jinghua's c.h.e.s.t she aggressively gave the money. Seeing this Ying Yue knew it was her time. Crawling around the car she silently started making her way over to them. She used the other cars as cover and then silently walked up behind them. The blonde woman had her back to them which gave her an advantage. To cover any potential noises and to direct her attention Jinghua created an argument around the money.

"How do I know this the correct amount?"  

"YOU DARE DOUBT ME?! Like this chump change is anything for me, you're just a low class waitress. I gave you an opportunity to make money and you take advantage of me?! I'll have you out of this city by morning!" 

"Oh really.... and how is that?" Ying Yue couldn't help speak out and scare the woman. She had made it to right behind her when the woman had spoken the last sentence. Seeing the woman turn around in shock Ying Yue quickly grabbed on to her arms. Kicking a foot out from under her she made her fall onto the pavement. Holding her knee in the middle of her back she kept her stationary on the floor. 

"WHO ARE YOU?! HOW DARE YOU PUSH ME ONTO THE FLOOR?! LET GO OF ME?! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!?!" 

At this point two other sets of footsteps were heard walking towards them. Looking up Ying Yue saw Xi Long make his way to stand next to her. His cold voice cut off her rants as the temperature dropped. 

"And who would that be?"
