Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast

Shen quickly pulled out the white thing in the small bullet.

As he pulled it out he realized it was a small piece of folded paper with a faint message printed on it.

Lina noticed Shen had discovered something and walked over to him.

"What is it?"

He showed her the small piece of paper.

It said — *The King falls when the Queen is weak. Check.*

"It's a threat." Shen said quietly.

So someone was definitely targeting him through Lina.

"So....they like to play chess, huh?" Lina smirked. Just how weak did they consider her?

Did they honestly think she would be the reason for Shen's demise?

Her blood boiled as she grit her teeth.

She felt Shen's arms circle around her.

"Baby, don't think about it. This is how they find the chinks in our armor. They're trying to spook us." Shen's calming voice and his warm, big hands around her helped her breathe easier.

As she held on to her husband she began to wonder how exactly she was involved in his business. What did these people mean?

Did she know something no one else did?

It really wasn't as simple as her just waking up as Shen Moshi's wife, living an easy life and simply running her own business.

Their lives seemed to be more intertwined than that.

Shen didn't seem to know what precisely they meant either but she decided to become more involved in his affairs to find out.

"I want to go to work with you on Monday." She said to him determinedly.

Catching her train of thought he smiled. It made his heart flutter when she became protective and showed an interest in his affairs.

She used to try to hide it before but something seemed to have switched now.

Then he remembered Dr. Hayama's appointment on Monday morning.

"There's something important we need to do Monday morning instead. But I wanted to take my angel somewhere exciting tomorrow night where we can investigate possible suspects."

Lina's eyes glittered. The prospect of investigating and catching the culprit behind this harassment was endlessly exciting to her.

Oh how she planned to rip their heads off...

"Where are we going tomorrow night, then?" she asked with enthusiasm.

"A very big party." Shen replied, a small smile playing on his lips.

This would be Lina's first outing since coming out of the coma.

But more importantly, it was the first time they would make an appearance together, as a couple, in public.

Lina frowned.

"But won't we be exposed as a married couple, then?"

Shen looked disappointed.

"Is being my wife embarrassing to you?" he demanded.

Lina rolled her eyes. Had he always been a big baby?

"No, stupid hubby. We are each other's secret weapons. The less we expose ourselves, the more schemes we uncover! If everyone knew we were married, our attackers would easily hide in the crowd. Right now, we still have the upper hand!"

In reality, Shen knew she wasn't embarrassed of being in public with him. He just wanted to hear her explanation.

His eyes glinted with amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Don't worry, angel, it's a masked ball. Nobody will know your identity. But there will be a long line of my enemies present. CEO's and presidents of companies that are direct rivals to Moshi Corp, as well as branches of the Moshi family that scheme to take me down as the head."

Lina thought about what a great opportunity it was to familiarise herself with the people Shen was surrounded by. She would be able observe those who could have potentially dared to attack them today.

Remembering that Ro-kun was still suffering, both husband and wife returned to his side where Ayu was still comforting him.

"Hold on, Ro-kun. The ambulance will be here in 10 minutes now."

Ayu's voice was gentle and soothing.

Mana was waiting outside, unable to stand the sight of the wound and the blood.

******

-- at an old villa outside the capital city --

A young man who looked like he was in his late twenties sat at the head of a long table.

He was flanked by dozens of bodyguards dressed in black, without expressions on their faces.

The table was filled with his subordinates and family members.

There was a lazy charm about his face, his long hair covering part of his face. He wore a loose fitting white linen shirt and fitting black trousers that accentuated his lean, tall figure.

There was a devilish handsomeness to him that could make women fall to their knees with just one look.

A casual smile danced on his lips, but his sharp grey eyes had a sinister, dangerous look lurking behind them.

"So...the wife, still doesn't remember?"

His deep, low voice hung in the air as he posed the question to the people assembled before him.

A bespectacled woman with short hair sitting to his right placed a revolver on the table.

"Doesn't seem like it, Boss. But she's got skills. She's dangerous."

The smile from the man's face disappeared.

His grey eyes shifted as he looked at the short-haired woman directly in the face.

"That's old news, Mari."

Mari shivered. One look from him, and her heart stopped.

"Without her skills, she would have never found out everything she did."

His last sentence was addressed to all those in the room, sending an indirect warning at their incompetence.

"And then you all failed to finish her off."
