Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Dumbfounded by Lu Tian’s shameless words, Yue Ling sighs inside. For how long will the man continue to act this way?

Pushing the thought aside, she tells him what she was thinking about.

"I have a feeling that Gongi and the other men’s capture was too easy. Like they already knew what they were walking into. Don’t you think so?"

Listening to her, Lu Tian slightly arch a brow. He is quite surprise to know that she was thinking the same thing as him. Of course, this gives him another reason to love her more. She was born to be his match and he is glad that it is her and not someone else.

However, thinking back to her words, he nod his head as the space between his brows slightly crease.

"Their capture was easier than we thought. When Gongi begged for death, I had a feeling that he really wanted me to kill him."

He recalls the scrawny man’s taunting words, and everything seemed to make sense. From the way Gongi acted, it was like the man was trying everything he can to piss him (Lu Tian) off.

The man also did not want to go to prison to confess the escape plan but would rather die. After all, once he confesses, he would be label as a traitor to Black Dragon.

Quickly as their conversation started, it also came to an end as they reach the glass door leading to the front of the shop.

Lu Tian held the door open for his wife and sighs to her. "For now, we’ll have to wait until we hear from Jiangyu and the rest of the team."

As Yue Ling walked through the door, the sound of engines running slows to stop in front of the rundown building.

Liu Shan parked his car and steps out to open the rear door for his boss. In front of his car was Lin Hui and Qi Li sitting on their motorcycles and helmet in hand.

Seeing them, Lu Tian looks at his wife. The uneasy feeling inside him did not disappear as he couldn’t help but regret making her leave first. However, as much as he wanted her by his side, he has to think about her current condition.

Walking her to the car, he pulls her into his arms and place a kiss on her forehead.

"Go home and get some sleep. I’ll be home soon."

Seeing the couple’s interaction, Liu Shan, Lin Hui and Qi Li felt like they had turned to dogs and were being fed dog food. How dare a man like Lu Tian show off his love for their boss like this?

Shameless.

Each person quickly turn to look elsewhere as they mute Yue Ling and Lu Tian’s on-going conversation.

Oblivious to her subordinates, Yue Ling smiles at Lu Tian for being such a sweet man.

"Don’t take too long. You need to rest too."

She lifts both her hands and grabs the man’s cheeks. Slightly pulling him down to meet her, she kisses him on the lip.

Pulling away from him, she let’s go of his face and quickly enters the backseat to Liu Shan’s car. Any longer with him and she really won’t want to leave anymore.

Surprised by her sudden kiss, Lu Tian stood unmoving from his spot. Like an entire day had gone by, a very faint smile curls on his face and he looks at his wife in the car.

He wanted so badly to feel her soft lips again, but forcing back the urge to hold her again, he takes a step back and closes to door.

Turning to look at the other three men, he realized that they had put their attention elsewhere. Lightly shaking his head, he clears his throat and return to his usual self.

"Keep her safe."

Three pairs of eyes stare at the man. Even if Lu Tian did not tell them, they will guard Yue Ling with their life no matter what.

Liu Shan turns to face the aloof man and gives Lu Tian a salute, "My life was hers the moment I started following her."

As he opens the door and gets inside the car, Lin Hui shook his head at the assistant. He looks at Lu Tian and nod his head. "Don’t worry. For us, her safety comes first."

He gestures a salute with his index and middle fingers before placing his helmet over his head and starts his motorcycle.

Being the only person left, Qi Li did not know what to do. His personality was not like Liu Shan and Lin Hui, so how can he gesture a salute. Thinking hard, he held his helmet against his hip and politely bends forward.

"I will guard her with my life."

Watching the man wearing glasses put his helmet on, Lu Tian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Maybe his wife’s team and his team are getting too comfortable that they are starting to act like each other.

The engine to their vehicles starts as Lin Hui and Qi Li took the lead with Liu Shan’s car following behind.

As the three vehicles drove away from the building, Lu Tian’s eyes did not leave Liu Shan’s car. He does not walk back inside but waited. He wanted to make sure that they were able to turn from the main street without any problems.

*Ring Ring

The three vehicles slow to a stop at a red light not too far as Lu Tian’s phone suddenly rings. He takes it out and glance down to see who was calling him.

Seeing who it was, he does not take his eyes off of Liu Shan’s car but answers the call.

"Speak."

["Boss..."]

Holding the phone near his ear, Lu Tian listens to his subordinate. However, his brows furrow together as one word was only made.

"Jiangyu?"

["..."]

From the other line, there was not another sound of Jiangyu’s voice but only the sound of static coming in.

Quickly knowing something must have happened on the other side, Lu Tian does not end the call but continues to listen. He knows his subordinate and to not hear the man respond, something is definitely wrong.

["Boss... p..."]

Suddenly, Jiangyu’s voice sounds again from the other line, but it was still not clear as the static noise overlaps with his voice.

Lu Tian tries to make out Jiangyu’s words, but it was difficult to hear anything.

As he stares at the back of Liu Shan’s car and tries to listen for anymore words from Jiangyu, the uneasy feeling inside him grew more intense. However, this time, it came with a suffocating feeling.

"Jiangyu, hold your position. Do you hear me? Hold your position."

At the same time, he didn’t know why, but he was already striding after the car his wife was in. That uneasy feeling and Jiangyu’s call was making him more anxious than ever.

However, just as he took five big strides, the red light in front of the three vehicles turns green. The engines to Lin Hui and Qi Li’s motorcycles sounds as they make a turn with Liu Shan’s car soon following after.

Seeing this, Lu Tian slows down in his steps as he sighs in relief. Maybe he is overthinking the situation too much.

["Boss... it... t... p..."]

As he stops in his steps, Jiangyu’s voice along with static noise spoke from the other line again.

His subordinate’s words were not clear, but he knew what Jiangyu had been trying to tell him. It wasn’t that same uneasy feeling but fear that now washed inside him.

Just as he lift his leg to take a step forward, Jiangyu’s voice sounds a warning through the phone follow with the loud screeching sound of tires.

["It’s... a trap..."]

*CRAASSHHH—-!!!!

Like time itself had stopped for Lu Tian, everything became a big massive blur. His brain turned into a blank page engulfed by black ink as his whole world turned dark.
