Chapter 224 Because I can kill you
"My Boss's identity is to be kept unknown until arrival."
Hearing the answer from Qi Li, the middle aged man nod his head. He will not pressure Qi Li and Lin Hui in revealing their boss, it's part of the underworld code, if one wishes to tell, one will.
Lu Tian leisurely sat in his seat without another spoken word. He looks at Qi Li and Lin Hui and thought of situation outside the rundown building. His wife is only a fashion designer and a retired model, can these two men really be her workers?
Li Wei had also said Fate was going to be here, of that's the case, can these two young men actually be from Fate and not from his wife?
The woman behind the middles aged man scoffed at Qi Li words. She crossed her arms over her chest and sneer.
"Hmmf, your boss must be a nobody since you don't want to tell us."
Li Wei, who had not said a word since he entered the room was dumbfounded. He looks at the woman and shook his head in pity.
"Little girl, I suggest you watch your mouth."
The woman looks at Li Wei and scoffed. She tilt her head, "Why should I? It's not like—"
*click*
"Why? Because I can kill you."
Before she could finish her words, she was rooted to the ground and froze. The cold end of a gun touched her temple making all the hair on her body stand up.
Everyone from Black Dragon including Xu Long's eyes fell to the floor. No one saw when or how Qi Li had moved. One moment he was talking to the leader of Black Dragon and next thing, he had already retrieved a gun from who knows where and pointed it to the woman.
The middle aged man almost fell out of his seat. He stare at Qi Li with disbelief and at a loss for all words. This man who looked so calm earlier now looked like an assassin. Just looking at his murderous eyes, one could see that he's killed before.
Li Wei sighed and massage his temple in frustration. He had already warn the woman not to go overboard, yet she never listens. Unlike everyone, Lu Tian was the only calm one. He leaned against his chair and ponder in thought.
From the other side of the middle aged man, the young man in casual clothe was dimming in rage. His eyes glare at Qi Li as if wanting to shreds the man into pieces. He reach for his gun and points it at Qi Li.
"You son of a b—-"
*click*
"Tsk tsk. I wouldn't do that if I were you."
Feeling the cold tip of the gun touch the back of his head, the young man was dumbfounded. His lip press tightly together as he couldn't put everything together. Wasn't Lin Hui standing a distance from him? How did the guy already get behind him?
Lin Hui tilt his head at the man and smiles a smile that made his eyes closed. He and Qi Li may have different personality and interests in life, but they both have one thing in common.
No one is allow to badmouth about their boss.
Besides, Qi Li may be fast, but when it comes to the actual speed in the team, he is the second fastest.
Seeing the change of situation, the room turned quiet before all the members of Black Dragon take their guns out. Some aimed at Qi Li while others aimed at Lin Hui.
The middle aged man slam his fist on the armrest of his chair as he looks at Qi Li then to Lin Hui.
"This is Black Dragon's territory, don't go overboard young men."
Lifting his hand, he gestured his men to hold fire. How can he let such things take place in his place? Even worse, Lu Tian was here. Any mishap and he was sure Black Dragon would fall.
Qi Li looks at the middle aged man, then to the woman, "Mr. Chu, your right hand woman decided it was wise enough to talk about my boss. Do you really think I will let this go?"
The woman glares at Qi Li, she reaches for the gun at her waist, but before she could touch it, Qi Li had already sense her movement. He press the gun more on her temple as if saying he isn't afraid to shoot her even if she was a girl.
"You—!"
"Mr. Chu, I will pay you a visit another time."
At the same time, Lu Tian leisurely stood from his seat without a care in the world. He looks at the distraught middle aged man and decided on something.
He is sure that Lin Hui and Qi Li are from Fate and not his wife. Even if no one saw how the two men made their moved, he did. And that was proof that these two men can't possibly be 'employees' of his wife.
If Fate wants to take care of Chu Li Xiang, he will let Fate deal with it.
Without looking at Xu Long and Li Wei, he nod his head as if saying they have no more business here.
Just as he stood from his seat, the sound of the door behind him suddenly opens. Soon came the echo of a woman's heels in the room. The crease between his brows furrow together as he felt the sound of these steps seemed so familiar to him.
Pushing the thought to the back of his head, he continues to leave, however, before his body could even turn, a voice he is all too familiar with enters his ears.
"Lin Hui, Qi Li. That's enough."
The angelic voice suddenly sounds in the direction of the red double doors of the room. Everyone, except Lu Tian quickly turn to the owner of the voice.
Lu Tian felt his entire body go numb. As the sound of the heels louden, he felt his heart beat in rhythm to it.
Within seconds, he could see a slender figure walk pass him and stops in the center of room.
He looks at the figure with eyes full of questions. Is he seeing things? How is this person even here?
As he ask himself questions one after another, Li Wei's figure slowly leans in from the side towards him and whispers.
"See, I told you Fate will be here."
