CHAPTER 454: EXCLUSIVE UNDERSTANDING

Zhou Muhan’s brow furrowed slightly. Kaka’s gaze swept toward Vermilion Bird, carrying a faint chill. The look wasn’t accusatory, but it held a wintry sharpness, like the early spring frost, cold enough to make Vermilion Bird shiver. An inexplicable dread rose in her heart, and even her fingertips trembled slightly.

*What a terrifying look.*

Kaka was always seen smiling. Kaka’s characteristic smile left a deep impression on the First Terror Organization. Both generations of leaders, whether Ye Ningyuan or Chu Nanfeng, liked to smile, always wearing one whenever they were seen. The only difference was that Ye Ningyuan’s smile was elegant and gentlemanly, while Kaka’s was shrewd and subtly manipulative, difficult to fathom. At times, he seemed profound and inscrutable, and at others, he appeared harmless, like a cheerful university student.

In all these years, virtually no one had ever seen him lose his temper. They were the closest of friends, trusting each other implicitly, with a bond forged through life and death. They often joked around, but Kaka had never shown any displeasure or spoken harsh words to them.

Such a chilling expression made Vermilion Bird feel worse than any harsh words.

She would have preferred Kaka to directly point out her mistake.

She did not want him to look at her like that.

Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon were smart enough to keep silent and look away. Zhou Muhan also made no move to intervene. Although he was on good terms with Vermilion Bird and Fang Jiaqi and appreciated their abilities, this was not enough for him to speak up for them.

Wushuang yawned nonchalantly, covering her small mouth with her slender fingers. A little sleepy, she asked Kaka, "Mr. Chu, if I say I **order** you to come with me to the Middle East, do you have any objections?"

She heavily emphasized the word **order**.

Vermilion Bird and the others were startled. Who in the world dared to use the word ’order’ when speaking to Kaka?

Hearing the formal title, Kaka couldn’t help but smile, replying helplessly, "**No!**"

Wushuang seemed pleased. She smiled softly and looked at Vermilion Bird, radiantly charming, and exceptionally courteous and polite. "You heard him."

There was no boasting or anger. She was merely stating a very normal fact.

Vermilion Bird was speechless, but she felt a bit of a backlash against Wushuang’s attitude. In their hearts, Kaka was the leader of the First Terror Organization and their good friend. Naturally, they didn’t like seeing another woman ’bully’ him like this.

Furthermore, the First Terror Organization’s prospective First Lady was Fang Jiaqi. All the high-level leaders knew about Kaka and Fang Jiaqi’s relationship and had accepted Fang Jiaqi. Wushuang’s arrival already made them feel uneasy.

Coupled with Wushuang’s identity and her attitude toward Kaka, none of it was acceptable to them.

Mo Wushuang marched to the beat of her own drum, free and unrestrained, never caring what others thought of her. Vermilion Bird’s words clearly crossed Wushuang’s line and touched the most sensitive nerve in her heart. Only Kaka knew she was angered.

"I’ll take you for a drive," Kaka said with a smile. The dining room fell into a deathly silence. No one spoke, not even Zhou Muhan. Kaka didn’t want Wushuang to sour her relationship with them either.

Wushuang asked with a mischievous smile, "She said Fang Jiaqi is coming back soon. Are you not afraid your girlfriend will get jealous if you go for a drive with me?"

"Little fool," Kaka murmured softly, pulling her up. Without looking back, he dropped a final word. "**Don’t let me hear similar words next time.**"

That term ’little fool,’ everyone heard it—it was full of affection and treasure, as if holding a precious gem. But the final sentence swept over them like the coldest wind from Siberia, cold and severe. The entire dining room was silent.

Kaka’s last sentence was meant for the four of them.

Such blatant favoritism and protectiveness left them incredulous. They had never been warned with such harsh words even when they made mistakes. This time, he issued a warning.

*How important is Mo Wushuang to Chu Nanfeng?*

Zhou Muhan glanced at them. "I recall warning you not to provoke Wushuang?"

White Tiger scoffed, saying carelessly, "It wasn’t my business, though."

Vermilion Bird frowned, her beautiful face etched with disapproval. "Was I wrong? Jiaqi is coming back in a few days. I didn’t lie. Besides, what’s going on with Nanfeng? Doesn’t he have Jiaqi? Why is he so intimate with Mo Wushuang? People who don’t know might think Mo Wushuang is his fiancée."

Anyone who wasn’t blind could see that.

"It doesn’t concern any of you. What are you doing with so much free time? Are you very idle lately? I think Bruno is overwhelmed in the Middle East by himself. Whoever has time should go help him," Zhou Muhan said faintly. As soon as he finished, he was alone in the dining room. The others had vanished in a blink.

Kaka took Wushuang for a drive. The silver sports car sped down the highway, feeling fast and pleasant. Wushuang squinted, enjoying the comfortable breeze on her face, a faint smile on her lips.

"Wushuang, don’t take what Vermilion Bird said to heart," Kaka said with a smile. She heard his voice clearly above the wind. Wushuang didn’t even open her eyes. Autumn in London felt quite nice. The temperature was just right, neither too cold nor too hot.

She liked it very much.

"You’re overthinking it. She wasn’t wrong."

Kaka smiled. He knew the girl was hiding her true feelings. He changed the subject. "Do you have anything else you need to do?"

"Trying to chase me away already?"

"Stop, stop, stop... Vermilion Bird made you angry. Don’t take it out on me with every sentence. I want to appeal. This is unfair treatment."

Wushuang smiled, opening her eyes. She slapped his shoulder with one hand, her dominance clearly visible, arrogant and brazen, yet possessing a commanding confidence. "**Appeal denied. On my territory, I am justice.**"

"How barbaric. No wonder Long Chengtian won’t accept your affection."

"Mr. Chu, can you stop bringing up touchy subjects? How about you give me some advice on how to win him over?" Wushuang asked with a laugh. She seemed particularly fixated on how to win over Long Chengtian.

Kaka smiled without answering. The car arrived at the seaside.

Blue skies and white clouds, azure sea and white sand. Tall palm trees clustered around rugged rocks. Tourists lay sunbathing under colorful parasols. Children flew kites, running on the white sand. Enthusiastic women in bikinis flaunted their figures on the beach, walking with a captivating charm that swayed across the scene. It was a wonderful place for a vacation.

"The sun is so nice. Come sunbathe with me."

"Don’t change the subject. Chengtian is your type. You know best how to win him over." Wushuang slapped his chest, her smile seductive, beautiful, and dazzling.

Kaka asked, "**Do you truly like Long Chengtian that much?**"
