The Devil who devoured Snow White

The man on the screen looked older than Yong Liwei but he was still attractive despite the few wrinkles on his face.

Lu Mengjie remembered how much she respected Qiang Wei a.k.a. Sloth. He was one of her father's most trusted aides; one of the Twelve Stars, a group of skilled mercenaries who were all loyal to her father.

"Am I really running a criminal organization?" She asked out loud all of a sudden when she thought that she has a mercenary in whatever group she has in the past.

Lust and Sloth, looked at her in surprise when they heard her words.

"You really did lose your memories…" The red-haired girl felt sorry for her. She removed the earphone jack from her phone by Sloth's order. She put the Cal through the speaker.

"That is the last thing you wanted." It was her teacher who answered to which the younger girl nodded in agreement.

"Since you can't remember, allow me to inform you, in case you will suddenly remember," the girl said this time. "Sister Xue, you are the kindest person alive!"

"..." Lu Mengjie gave her a blank look. That was not the kind of information she wanted to hear.

Sloth cleared his throat and continued for his companion, "the name of our group is Poison Apple."

Poison Apple? "Isn't… that the famous make-up brand?" 

"That's right!" Lust exclaimed happily. "It is one of the subsidiary companies of the Xia Corporation so in other words, your brother is in charge of managing it."

Her brother… Xia Liqin…

"Although the money from that company goes directly to support the orphanage we have. Brother Pride is the Head of the orphanage and the Director of the Neptune Arts Museum in this city. Brother Sloth is the Principal of the school you built for the children. As for sister Gluttony, she has a food factory and is in charge of the supplies for the orphanage. Brother Envy is in charge of the security of the place while brother Wrath sees everything, making sure that everything's going well. As for you, you roam around the world 'recruiting' workers or 'adopting' abandoned people. You are the children's hero, sister Xue! You may not remember yet but I am one of the children you saved from child trafficking five years ago! You were with brother Envy! I can still clearly remember how the two of you saved everyone!"

It was the exact opposite she thought of how the organization would be. It never entered her mind, especially with all the villainous aliases. Who in the right mind would name a codename after the seven deadly sins and think that they were actually doing something good? No one!

"So it is not a criminal association," someone joined in.

They all turned to Yong Liwei who stood beside the table. He couldn't just let Lu Mengjie with them. At first, he decided to wait for a few minutes but when he realized that it was taking more than that, he came to their table and heard what Lust said a few seconds ago.

Upon seeing Yong Liwei up close, Lust's mouth went agape at the most perfect creature she has ever seen. Her brain sort of fried for a moment!

Yes, it was a universal effect that could only be experienced upon seeing Yong Liwei for the first time.

The man went and took a seat beside his lover. "So you wanted me to lead an organization like this?" Yong Liwei smiled, reaching out to hold Lu Mengjie's hand. "Not bad."

"L-Lead?" Shock was evident on both Lust and Sloth's faces.

"What do you mean lead?" The redhead asked in skepticism.

"Are you going to make him your husband?" Sloth inquired.

"Wait, wait a minute! I thought that other Bai guy was your husband? You have two husbands now?!" Lust gasped out loud. "Shit! Shit! Wrath's going to get furious and kill them!"

From how she was making it sound, Lu Mengjie couldn't help but wonder who Wrath was. Why were they making it look like she has a close relationship with that person?

"Who's Wrath?" She asked out loud.

Sloth's face turned sour. "You don't need to know who he is for now. What you need to know is that you can never trust him, Miss. Even Envy's beginning to doubt him after he heard that you disappeared."

Something flashed in Yong Liwei's eyes but soon disappeared as soon as it came so no one was able to catch a glimpse of it. "What do you mean?"

Sloth hesitated. Yong Liwei was still an outsider even if he happened to be the person Lu Mengjie chose.

"I also want to know. Who's this Wrath? Why are you saying that I can't trust him?"

The man on the phone was quiet and so was the redhead girl. She was not going to speak unless she was permitted to do so.

The older man sighed. He was afraid that just by the mention of Wrath's real name, Lu Mengjie might end up remembering him and it would make things harder for them if she took his side. "I cannot disclose who Wrath is but what I can say right now is that… he might be the person who has put you in this condition."

Lu Mengjie furrowed her brows in confusion. She turned to Yong Liwei and asked, "could he be one of the people who are after you?"

"I can't tell for sure until I get his real name," despite saying that, he looked like he was already thinking of the possibility of who that person might be. He looked through the phone's screen with a scrutinizing stare. "Why would that person want to attack Mengjie if he is one of her men?"

She nodded in agreement. Even without her memories, if she accepted whoever that person was in the association, then shouldn't that mean that she trusted that person?

A deep sigh was heaved out by Sloth. He adjusted his hold on the phone from the other side. "It is very complicated. I don't know how I should put it but he belongs to a family that threatens Envy's family from behind. I know that you are friends but that man… is very doubtful. He can do anything just to get what he wants and that includes putting people close to him in danger."
