THE MAFIA!
The Chapter 202

Jia stepped up, climbing the one meter wide steps one by one. The more it rose, the closer Xiaoli's room was. Young Miss Xavier's heart was like it was being pumped, when she stepped on the last rung of stairs. He looked to the left and to the right.

Apparently, although the mess bodyguard is only inhabited by male bodyguards, in fact the outside is quite neat and clean. Each room has its own shoe rack and trash can. Also a small chair, which may be used to sit when you want to wear shoes. Or just to relax with the other bodyguards.

"Young lady!" a bodyguard was sitting in one of the small chairs. How surprised he was when he saw Jia wailing near the stairs. Immediately he stood up, and looked down respectfully.

"Shh!" jia said asking the bodyguard he did not know his name was not to make a sound.

"Can I help you, Miss?" it was slower but panicked.

How not to panic, what was in the mind of the bodyguard was that Jia was doing nothing on the orders of the Great Lord. But for ten years he served in the Black Hold Clan, never once did the Palace family. Only Jack and Dimitri often do that. To keep the Klan troops away from drugs.

"Ep... Where's Xiaoli's room?" jia asked half a whisper.

The 28-year-old bodyguard frowned. Why is young Miss looking for Xiaoli who just came home from the hospital? Although everyone knows about the accident that happened to Xiaoli, it was because of the stubborn young Miss.

"That's right over there, Miss!" his reply then pointed at the very end room on Jia's left side. "End, left.

"Oh!" Jia nodded in understanding.

"I'll call you, Miss!" he said he was rushing to Xiaoli's room.

"No need!" prevent Jia fast. Of course he wanted to see Xiaoli in her room. At once wanted to see, what kind of handsome bodyguard room it was.

Ah, apparently the young lady started to tease a lot about her handsome bodyguard!

"But, Miss! The great master can be angry when he finds out that the young lady is coming to a bodyguard!" answer the bodyguard. "It's our duty to face Mr. Michael's family!" the bodyguard continued in a very scared tone.

"Daddy's not home! You don't have to be afraid!" jia replied with ease. "You're just there! I'll go to Xiaoli myself!" jia said immediately stepped up.

"But.but.."

"Shut up!" cut Jia firmly, with a back look.

"All right, Miss!" inevitably, that was all the bodyguard could answer.

The 19-year-old girl is still unstable. Taking everything that is taken seriously by the bodyguard is an easy thing to complete. With Daddy not home, Jia can go wherever she wants, she thought.

Yet... We all don't know what's going to happen up front, do we?

Jia steps closer to Xiaoli's room door, a handsome bodyguard who always steals the eye of anyone who sees. Teenager teruma. Or perhaps even, those who were older than Xiaoli.

And one of them is, her own young lady. Who since first met has been interested to just see his good looks. Until it continues with guilt.

By the way... The guilt?

It seemed like that was only Miss Jia's reason for being able to meet the most handsome and young bodyguard in the Black Hold Clan.

Jia's steps had already arrived in front of a black painted door. A 19-year-old heart is like a pump. For the first time, he came to the man's room alone.

Hands up, swinging to knock. However, when two inches more will touch the door, the young lady's hand stopped. Doubtful but embarrassed, maybe that's what Jia felt.

Feeling nervous, Jia turned to the left side, where the bodyguard that had appeared was still standing facing him. And immediately looked down when he found out Jia was turning her head.

"Shh!" call Jia.

The bodyguard looked up, feeling summoned by Jia. It turns out that Jia gave him the code to enter your room!

Quickly - quickly the bodyguard darted into his room with a hunt. The eye-painting of young Miss Xavier was enough to make her heart almost jump.

Breathing out, the hand moves again.

Tok tok!

Jia knocked on the door number 45 which was currently tightly closed.

"Come in, Uncle!" shouted Xiaoli, who thought it was Antonio. Because from then on only Antonio took care and watched over him. Until the man who has served decades in the Black Hold clan must go back and forth to his room.

Jia who heard Xiaoli's cry, immediately gave a smile. He was considered a bodyguard. Then Jia pressed the door handle slowly and without the slightest sound from her lips.

While Xiaoli who was inside the room, frowned. Usually all bodyguards who want to enter his room always knock on the door hard or even without knocking on it first.

Why is this time knocking slowly, and... Pressing the handle very slowly.

"Like women alone." Xiaoli muttered softly.

Slowly, the door opened little by little, Xiaoli who was lying on top of the single bad bed turned her head towards the door and watched closely. Who is being so gentle.

"Good afternoon, Xiaoli!" sapa Jia showed herself.

Xiaoli nodded and got up from her bed.

"Miss Jia!" xiaoli said flabbergasted.

Quickly - quickly he stood up, forgetting all the rest - the rest of the pain in his body. Although actually all that does not hurt for a fighter, Xiaoli still asked not to move too much, for the sake of faster recovery post surgery.

"Don't get up!" Jia tries to prevent

But Xiaoli still chose to stand upright with irregular breathing.

"Ep... I'm...." Jia hesitated to say, "I want to... Apologize to you, Xiaoli!" jia said later. The expression on his face really showed that he really felt guilty.

"I'm sorry for what, Miss?" xiaoli asked in surprise.

"Because of me, you are like this." said Jia who was still standing outside the door.

"Protecting Xavier's family is my duty, Miss! I swear I did!" xiaoli's reply who was feeling confused and embarrassed mixed in. A girl looks at the contents of her room as it is.

"But still I feel bad." Jia replied slightly lowered her head. "I'm because of this problem, you are in the law by not being able to leave the village for the next year." said Jia looked up to Xiaoli. Looking at the handsome face of the bodyguard.

In such a stare by a young Miss, it certainly makes Xiaoli misbehaved and confused. Especially before, he never crossed paths with young and beautiful girls. Other than his teacher's disciples he looked at with a serious gaze while training at the temple.

"I never felt it was such a severe punishment, Miss!" xiaoli replied confidently. "I'm used to not coming home before!" xiaoli replied again reasoned. Of course he didn't want young Miss Xavier to feel more guilty.

Jia smiled wryly, "just keep feeling guilty for your wounds, Xiaoli!"

"Young people don't need to feel guilty. After all the great master did not chop off my head." Xiaoli replied with a faint smile, to ease the tension between the two.

Seeing the smile on Xiaoli's lips, made the young Miss faint. There's a strange, hard-to-digest swish in the chest. There was something he did not dare to understand at all.

Or maybe, because he had never known her before?

I don't know, obviously young Miss Xavier is on the sidelines.... Yeah, thats.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoli!" jia said again.

"There's nothing to forgive, miss!" xiaoli replied confidently.

Now it was Jia's turn to smile sweetly. And, ah! time spins, and makes the heart of the young man who now arises a strange and difficult to understand.

An intoxicating sweet smile, Xiaoli thought.

Jia circulated a glance to the rest of Xiaoli's room. Looks neat even though small and not fancy. In terms of size alone, only a quarter of the room area.

Feeling that the young Miss is researching the contents of her room, of course Xiaoli is getting wrong and embarrassed.

"Sorry, Miss! My room is a mess!" xiaoli said with a clumsy smile. Holding the heart still beating fast in the chest.

"Your room is neat, Xiaoli!" but that was the sentence that came out of Jia's lips, to respond to Xiaoli's sentence.

Xiaoli again smiled clumsily, "this is such a mess, Miss!"

"You're like Brother Jio! The room is always nice!" Jia continued to refute Xiaoli's humble sentence. "Different from Gerald, whose room is always a mess! But the servants were tidying it up every day!" jia continued with a more relaxed tone of speech.

Xiaoli scratched the back of her non-itchy head. Something was wrong that afternoon.

"Em.. before, I'm sorry, Miss. I'm afraid that the Great Lord will get even more angry if he finds out Miss is coming here. So it's better... Miss left this slum." Xiaoli said with a very careful.

"You kicked me out?" jia asked with a pouting expression. He was still standing outside the door.

Shake fast, "that's not it, Miss! I'm just afraid, if Miss will be given a heavier punishment than now!" replied Xiaoli.

Jia looked down deeply, disappointed. When he recalled the words of all the bodyguards before he got there. Everyone is afraid when Daddy gets angry.

But I didn't want to end the conversation with Xiaoli on that sunny afternoon.

***

If in the mess bodyguard there is Jia who managed to find Xiaoli Chen's room and chat, then in front of the palace there is already Jio's car. Which means that handsome young man has already arrived. And now he's in his room.

He was well dressed as a young man today. The items that stuck to his body, were all expensive items of course. But Jio seemed ordinary to wear it. Because everything is worthless to rich people like them.

He stood in front of the closet. Take the pink paper bag, which he saved yesterday. He opened the paper bag to look at the contents again.

"Well, as Nikki suggested this morning! I have to convince myself and express my feelings. If I really love you, Nia! I hope you won't reject my love!" he said in front of his glass.

The original red rose he had ordered, and now it was in the passenger seat of his Bugatti. He only had to prepare the heart, if it had been faced with Nia later. At the right time, after he scrambles - a random date Virginia and Alex.

Legs began to step out of the young master's luxurious room. The paper bag contains a small hadia, already in his left hand. The door was opened. The tall and sturdy body had already come out of the door, and closed the door again.

Now the step is getting closer to the top ladder. He decided to go down the stairs. He is not a spoiled child who likes to use the elevator to go up and down.

However.when the feet are in the middle of the stairs that swerve. The voice he was very familiar with was heard echoing in the central room.

"Jio!" call him.
