The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel's Disguise

As the lights flicked on, Ru only heard her brother saying, \"Meet Ji Caihong’s best friend, Tang Yiyi. Hope you haven’t forgotten that face.\"

At the very beginning when Ru had her own suspicions related to the Ji family, her every single trace led her to only one person; Ji Caihong. Whether it was the party where she heard that familiar voice of the woman whose sneak attack made her lose her eyesight or it was the time when Knight Empire’s server had an attack.

Both times her traces led her to Ji Caihong but she had never been able to bring herself to even doubt Ji Caihong. And now when she looked at that girl tied against the pole in that room, Ru knew why her traces led to Ji Caihong. Looking at Tang Yiyi’s face Ru’s blurred memories cleared up and her buried anger resurfaced. If that day, this woman hadn’t attacked her from behind, Ru would have never fallen.

Even if the effects of the drugs were strong, Ru could hold her ground but that one attack brought her to the edge of her death. Rather than saying that it was that bullet that pierced through her heart, Ru would most likely blame this person right before her!

\"Wake her up,\" Rong ordered his men to wake Tang Yiyi who had been peacefully in dreamland until now but now, it was time to open her eyes to live her nightmare.

Two expressionless females came out of the dark corner and silently threw water at Tang Yiyi’s face, waking her from her slumber. Seeing that Tang Yiyi was slowly opening her eyes, both redhead females stepped back and went back to their position making their presence as little as possible.

While Tang Yiyi was slowly trying to adjust to the bright light, Ru’s whole body was trembling in anger. As she fluttered her eyes open, she was met with Ru’s green eyes looking as dark as if she was straight coming out of hell. Even though Tang Yiyi’s body shuddered under the pressure of her gaze, she didn’t back out. It took her a moment before her brows knitted together, \"You! Subject 4.\" Her eyes widened as she questioned, \"How are you alive?\"

Ru sneered at her saying, \"You really thought this Lord would die at the mere hands of mortals like you? How presumptuous can you possibly be?\"

Rong couldn’t help but cough to conceal his laughter as he stood at a side. He really couldn’t do anything with this little brother who really talked like she was looking down at the people who would really be like a thorn in her eyes.

But his cough caught the attention of Tang Yiyi as she turned her head and as soon as she saw Rong’s face, her eyes literally lit up, \"Han Ge, why are you here? Where have you been? I’ve looked for you for so long. Is this despicable woman trying to get revenge on you as well?\"

Han was the fake identity that Rong had when he and Ru were caught up with Tang Yiyi’s organization. He even had to involve himself with those people because Ru wanted him to do so. Even though Ru was in her male attire at the moment, it wasn’t surprising that Tang Yiyi could tell her gender with ease. After all, in that organization, everyone knew that she was cross-dressing. Even if Ru tried to hide it, during their several experiments it was inevident that they would learn her real gender.

\"I was so worried about you,\" while Tang Yiyi talked both Rong or Ru said nothing. While elder brother was busy pretending like he wasn’t even listening, the younger ’brother’ was busy fuming in anger while throwing daggers at Tang Yiyi with her green eyes. \"Even though you rebelled and betrayed the organization but if you come with me, I promise that nobody would blame you for anything.\"

Ru stood before Tang Yiyi to keep her treacherous eyes away from her brother. Oh, did she mention that she was really possessive about her brother? \"Before trying to rope in my brother, you should know that you’re never getting out of here.\"

Tang Yiyi looked at Ru hatefully as she sneered, \"Oh really? A dog is always able to bark in his own territory. And you’re no better! What are you trying to prove by tying me up like this? You’re just a coward! So what if you survived, you still had to live like a rat in a sewer!\"

Rang’s eyes blazed with a dangerous light as he intended to move, Ru raised her hand to stop him as she said, \"You really think everyone’s like you? So what if I’m a dog? At least, this dog has a territory to brag about and bark in. What about you?\" Ru pulled out a dagger as she slowly came close to her and held it against her fair and pale skin making all the blood rush to her eyes which were intently looking at Ru’s face. Ru slowly slid that dagger downwards to her neck, to her shoulders, to her arm but she didn’t leave a single cut. No slash was made, it was more like that sharp tip was merely grazing her delicate skin making a dangerous feeling to crawl up in her heart. \"This dog can rule this world. But a dog like you can only wag its tail behind its master.\"

\"You!\" Tang Yiyi was incited by Ru’s words.

\"Poisonous tongue as always,\" said Rong to himself as he listened to Ru. He knew how much she was itching to tear Tang Yiyi into pieces but she was holding herself back. But since she still had to keep her life, that didn’t mean that Ru had to hold back on her poisonous words. She could infuriate a person to death no matter how strong one’s mental strength was. Before Ru, it was all of no use. Because she knew where to hurt and how to do it.

Ru was indeed trying to infuriate Tang Yiyi but most importantly, she was trying to remind her of her status in that organization. In that brutal place, Tang Yiyi was merely a dog wagging its tail.

Tang Yiyi was really on her verge of exploding and Ru didn’t even have to do much. She said merely a few words and she already wanted to kill someone. But how could she not? Ru had hit right where it hurt. The striking disparity between Ru and her was the fact that she was a pawn in someone’s game while Ru was a player who knew how to play.

While Tang Yiyi was a slave with a master, Ru was the master with countless slaves under her. This disparity was enough to make Tang Yiyi hate Ru even more.
