Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 223 Who is your boss?



Following the old man, the four figures enter an elevator. Once the door slide closed, an uproar escapes inside the first floor of the building.

A group of women whispered and giggle to each other as the loud music played inside.

"Did you see Li Wei? I can't take my eyes off of him at all."

"Even the man that came with Li Wei was perfectionism."

While the first floor was in a commotion, at the highest floor to the building, the elevator slowly sped up.

Inside the elevator, no one spoke a word. Lu Tian stare at the door and thought about Li Wei's words again.

When he first took over Lu Corps, he was only 18. During that time he had trained along side Grandfather Ji's army to strengthen his training when it came to taking down the underworld.

One of those days in his youth, he had gone to visit Grandfather Ji to train and upon his arrival, he met an older man. He had thought the man was just an ordinary friend of grandfather Ji's, but he soon realized the man was skilled in martial arts.

After a day's training with grandfather Ji and the man, it wasn't until the man left did he find out that, that ordinary man was none other the legendary leader of Fate.

However, he never saw the man again. No location or whether the man was still alive. It was as if the man never existed. Yet, every now and then, he would get reports about Fate, but he could never dig any deeper. If he wanted to, he could, but that would be disrespectful to an elder he respects.

*ding*

The sudden sound of the elevator brings Lu Tian out of his thoughts. He stare ahead as the door slide opens and old man holding a cane gesture with one hand towards what was now a dimly lit hallway.

"This way please."

It didn't take long before they were brought to a bright red double door. The old man knocked on the door and it was quickly, but slowly opened from the inside.

"Please go in."

Lu Tian nod his head in politeness and stride forward with both Li Wei and Xu Long following behind.

As they enter the room, members of Black Dragon stood in every corner of the room. All heads turn in the direction of the new guests.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Li please have a seat."

In the center of the room sat a middle aged man. He wore a black pin stripe suit with a cigar in one hand. Behind his right was a woman with her long hair tied in a high pony tail and to his left was a young man in casual clothes.

"Mr. Chu."

Lu Tian's expression did not waiver as he sits down on an empty that was across from the man. He stare directly at the man seated in his chair. Being the person the government sends to do the dirty jobs, he's encounter people far worse than this man.

The middle age man sized Lu Tian's every move. He nod his head and smiles. He knows that Lu Tian is a very powerful man in China, the only reason why he hasn't been put behind bars is because he's never done anything that crosses the line.

"To what do I owe Mr. Lu the pleasure?"

Lu Tian crossed his leg into a four figure and his dark eyes remained cold and indifferent. He scanned the room and not seeing the person, the corner of his arc into half smile.

"Chu Li Xiang."

Hearing the name, the middle aged man felt as if a melted iceberg had been pour on him. He gulped and frown.

"What does Mr. Lu need my younger brother for?"

Lu Tian shrug his shoulder. He was never one who liked to beat around the bush. His purpose was to get Chu Li Xiang and warn the man of never crossing his and his wife's path or else, Black Dragon will be demolished.

"He crossed the line into my territory. It's only—"

"Hold on there, Mr. Hotshot."

Before Lu Tian could finish his words, a sudden voice interrupts him. His eyes darkened and he glance at the owner of the voice. Ever since he entered this room, he had long notice the two kids, but he had ignored them. Let alone, no one has ever cut him off.

From the side, Lin Hui's figure emerges from the quietness. He looks at Lu Tian then to the middle aged man. How dare these two have a conversation without a care that he and Qi Li are still here.

"Mr. Hotshot, sorry to disappoint you but my boss is already here to ask for Chu Li Xiang. You can have the man after my boss is finished with him."

"..."

Xu Long stare at the young man and he wanted so much to cry for him. No one has ever talked to his boss this way, let alone treat his boss this way. Except for his lady boss, but she doesn't count. Sighing, he takes a step forward.

"Young man, I think there's been a misunderstanding. How about we—"

"We were here first. My boss has personal matters to deal with Chu Li Xiang."

The middle aged man was dumbfounded. He is the leader of the notorious Black Dragon and this was his place, yet, here are two different group having a conversation as if his place was a restaurant. Sighing, he pinch the space between his brows.

"That's enough. This is Black Dragon, not some playground."

He looks at Lu Tian and sighed again. Lu Tian is a man he cannot offend, if he does, his hard work in creating Black Dragon would be doomed. If that happens, what will happen to his followers? Who will in this world will accept them?

"Mr. Lu, please contain your assistant."

He smiles a smile to Lu Tian. He has long heard about the business King's assistant. The man may look like a fool, but he is the assistant of the business king for a reason.

Moving his eyes, he looks at the two young men who came in before Lu Tian. His brows furrow as he's never seen them before.

What he thought was weird was that at first, he thought the one with the glasses was the leader, but when he asked them to sit, neither one did. Both had walked to a seat and just stood behind it.

He pursed his lip in thoughts. Finally coming to a decision, he spoke his words.

"Young men, I accept visitors in my Black Dragon, but since your boss is not here, I will listen to what Mr. Lu has to say."

Hearing the words, Lin Hui and Qi Li knew exactly what was going on. The middle aged man was picking Lu Tian, that only meant if Lu Tian asks for Chu Li Xiang, they can't go against it.

Lin Hui clench his fist in anger. He cannot let his boss be looked down on like this. Just when he wanted to speak, Qi Li takes a step forward.

"My Boss will be here, are you sure about your decision?"

"You dare to talk to Black Dragon's leader in that tone?!"

The woman behind the middle aged man angrily yells out with her finger pointing at Qi Li. She had been quiet this entire time, but the tone Qi Li had used sounded more like a threat.

"Julia, it's alright."

The middle aged man gesture his hand to stop the woman. He looks at Qi Li then to Lin Hui. Thinking of something, he sighed inside. Both group wants his younger brother, but he doesn't even know why.

"Young man, who is your boss?"
