The next day, Zhang Liling and Zhang Xiaoling met for brunch at an exclusive restaurant that had private rooms.

As Zhang Xiaoling\'s blood was hot, she arrived at the plans twenty minutes before the time. Fortunately, Zhang Liling was not late as she had expected her to be.

Since she was the one desperate for answers, she had thought Zhang Liling would take advantage of the situation by coming in late but to her surprise, she was only 5 minutes late.

Watching her as she walked into the room, she noticed her different she looked.

Was this the glow that radiated from a man who married well?

Zhang Xiaoling couldn\'t tell.

"Are you surprised that I came in early?" Zhang Liling asked as she sat at the other end of the long table.

Seeing the way she was staring at her in surprise, she couldn\'t help thinking that way.

"Yeah." Zhang Xiaoling replied without the intention of hiding her thoughts from her.

If thru were going to exchange information and plan to work together, then they needed to build trust between them.

"I thought you would take your time." She added.

Putting her bag on the floor next to her feet, Zhang Liling placed her phone in the table in front of her as a smile bloomed on her face.

"Well, I wouldn\'t deny having such thoughts, but as a busy woman who has a company to run, I can\'t waste my time. Besides, I have something else to do at the end of today."

Leaning into the table, she said in a low tone only them could hear.

"I need to take care of Honey."

Winking at her, she leaned her back toward the chair she was sitting on.

A deep breath escaped from Zhang Xiaoling\'s lips as she heard those words that made her ears cringe.

Without uttering a word concerning it, she pressed the bell on the table in front of her and within a minute, a waiter walked in to take their other.

"I think we should eat before we talk to avoid getting indigestion later." She suggested as she received the menu from the waiter.

"Why didn\'t you think I would get indigestion from dining with you instead?" Zhang Liling asked as she received the second menu from the waiter that had come to take their food order.

Without raising her head from the booklet in front of her eyes, Zhang Xiaoling fired back in a low tone. "That is the reason I reserved this room that has the longest table so we would stay off each others part while conversing."

Truthfully, the distance between the two heads of the table was vast.

The table was long, making it only impossible for the two people sitting at each head to share a bond.

While counting, it would take at least 5 long arms before they would be able to mistakenly brush against the skin of each others finger.

That was how distant Zhang Liling and Zhang Xiaoling were on the dining table.

"At least you are still smart like in the past." Zhang Liling retorted as she lifted her gaze to glance at the waiter while returning the menu to him.

"I will have..."

For the rest of the time it took for their food and drink order to arrive, the two sisters didn\'t say a word to each other.

While sitting on her chair, Zhang Liling got busy by just replying to some comments under her post, as well as some important Mails.

On the other hand, Zhang Xiaoling\'s gaze was busy staring at anywhere except on her phone or on the woman sitting across from her.

When their order finally arrived, they got something else to keep them occupied instead of making things awkward between them.

Some minutes later, a few waiters walked into the room to clear everything in their table except for their drinks.

Since she was the one that invited Zhang Liling over, Zhang Xiaoling took over the conversation.

"As you already know, I am curious about every information you have on my mother. First, I will start by telling you what you might not know about her."

Staring straight into her eyes, Zhang Xiaoling made no effort of holding back on what she knew about her mother.

"My mother is shrewd in all her way as you already know. The reason I said it will not be easy to take her down is because her roots are deep and she is dangerous.

Why do you think our relationship is not close anymore? What do you think I must have seen or found out about her that I couldn\'t take when I have been on her side since you came to know me?

Fiddling with her fingers, Zhang Liling replied. "Something that has to do with butchering and taking out human organs and selling them in the black market? In summary, body parts trafficking?"

"You knew about that?"

Zhang Xiaoling\'s eyes widened in their sockets when she heard her response. She couldn\'t believe her ears as she began to wonder how she came to know about something so secretive and sensitive.

"Yes, but only recently, thanks to your mother angering me by trying to sabotage my make-up products at the factory in Paris. I must say, she really has some nerves. But I had to return the favour." Zhang Liling said without batting an eye.

She was letting her know that the biggest secret she thought she had to tell her had already been found out by her.

In actual sense, she was telling her that she had nothing to trade with her, but Zhang Xiaoling was not thinking toward that direction.

"Since you know about a huge matter like this, what are you going to do next? You will need to work hard to get some hardcore evidences that cane be used against her."

"Zhang Xiaoling, why are you going against your mother instead of taking her side?" Zhang Liling asked curiously as small wrinkles formed on her forehead.
