Meanwhile, Mohammed Akram and Mohammed Alif were sitting together and the maids were feeding them grapes. Suddenly both men bit their tongues accidentally.
"Ouch! That hurts!" Mohammed Alif cried out. The pain made his body numb.
Mohammed Akram closed his eyes in pain. "Someone must be cursing us."
Mohammed Alif shoved the woman beside him in anger. "This is the second time it happened in half an hour. Who would dare to curse us so frequently?"
"Check the recordings and let me know what Ms. Lan talked about to Mu Feng." Mohammed Akram instructed his cousin.
"I will." Alif then asked, "What will I do with Mu Liang?"
Akram chew the grape he was given and replied, "Let's decide it after we find out what Ms. Lan said to Mu Feng. Then again, Mu Liang's future is already fixed."
Alif frowned. "I want to find out who sent what without internet. It's giving me goosebumps. We even checked everyone's laptop and mobile to find out who did it but we couldn't find anything. It was like the device which was used to break the security system just vanished into the thin air. That person is a real genius."
Akram calmly asked, "Did you check Ms. Lan's laptop?"
"She didn't bring one. She was too hasty when she came and forgot to bring her laptop. At first, I didn't want to believe her, but since the guards didn't find anything, I had to trust her." Alif was silent for a moment. Then, he recalled something. "What are you going to talk to Ms. Lan about? Didn't you say that you are going to give her the footage? Why didn't you send it to her? And why do you want to meet her? She also requested me for a laptop. What a demand! A woman should be beneath us! How dare she talk like that I am some kind of her servant!"
His face turned red in anger. As the youngest of the family, he was always pampered, Because of that he became hot tampered and had a hard time to control his anger. As a son of the wealthy family, he never had to control his anger. When he was furious, he would kill the person who made him mad.
Akram cooled down his cousin. "Don't be agitated. We will do everything according to the plan we created. We cannot let our guards down." His mind was still circling around the red signal after someone broke the security system and used internet.
Alif always listened to his elder cousin. He calmed down a bit. He nodded in agreement. "Okay. I'm working according to the plan. But what about you? Why don't you tell me that why you suddenly changed your plan?"
"I didn't." Mohammed Akram paused and then added, "I just didn't tell you everything."
"Do you wish to tell me now?" Alif was definitely curious.
"What's so hurry?" He looked at his cousin and continued, "Alif, I have a present for you. Wait for a few days." Mohammed Akram smiled.
"As long as it's a present from you, I know it will be something exceptional." Alif was happy. He gazed at the woman in his arms and said, "Go, grab some dates and juice for me and my cousin."

"Yes, master." The maid left.
To respond to Alif's previous comment about exceptional gift, Akram said, "Oh, you have no idea." His eyes flickered as he glanced at the fire lantern.
Alif didn't notice his cousin's expression.

Mu Lan took the paper where they were writing their conversation and tore it into pieces before throwing those pieces of the paper in the commode and flashed it down.
She wore an olive colored Arabian gown with golden design, made a bun with her hair and wore an olive colored hat. When she was putting on the jewelries, Altan was looking at her with interest.
The girl he knew was a tomboy. Even when she was a teenager, her hair was short, she was used to wear their shirts and pants; and now that she was dressing up like a girl, he couldn't help but look how much she had grown up.
Mu Lan didn't want to dress up, but just a few minutes ago, one of the maids serving Mohammed Akram sent her an invitation to join him in a party.
She was fuming in rage. 'I can't find my Liang Liang and he wasn't doing anything to help me and yet he actually dared to send an invitation.' While thinking that, she finally got an idea.
The maids escorted her to a huge room where the party was held. The male guests and the female guests were all present. The female guests were very few in number. They all came for business. Some of the male guests were government officials and some of them were businessmen. Their eyes caught Mu Lan right after she entered the room.
It was already evening. The golden lights were all lightened up. The golden furniture was glittering in the light. In the corner, Arabian music was being played by some musicians and a bunch of girls wearing tribal clothes dancing in the middle of the room.
The guests were enjoying the glamorous event. The room was bustling with noises.
Mu Lan walked straight towards the man who was the host.
"Mr. Mohammed Akram." She greeted him somewhat coldly.
The ministers of Saudi Arabia and Mohammed Akram were talking. Being interrupted by a woman, the ministers gave her a stern gaze. But Mu Lan pretended not to see them.
Mohammed Akram gazed at her with his dark eyes and asked politely, "Ms. Lan, is there anything important you wish to talk to me about?"
His politeness was more like an insult to her as if he was mocking her. She sharply gazed at him and said, "Mr. Mohammed Akram seems to be so busy that he forgot one of your guests as well as your business partner is missing. And here his fiancée in here to look for him and you are doing nothing to help her. You could at least assign some guards to give me a helping hand and give me the footage. But all you are doing is having party. Should I praise you for your insincerity?"
