Chapter 483 leader of Fate
"Mami!"
Fei Tao's young voice sounds as he turns into a child and run over to the angelic woman in white. It's been so many years since they've last seen each other, and he misses her so much.
Yue Ling glance at the boy and the cold aura around her softens. Lifting her hand, she pats his head like an older sister.
"It's nice to see you are still as energetic as ever."
Hearing her words full of praise, Fei Tao's cheeks flush and he scratch his nose bashfully. He had always had a sharp tongue, but the only person he will act obediently like this to is Mami.
She is the one person he will never betray because of their past.
Following the young man, Li Wei nods his head in greeting as Qin Yi and Chu Qiang the same. However, unlike them, the remaining leaders were dumbfounded to the core.
Especially Gao Jie.
He was the one who assumed the middle-aged man to be the leader, when the man is none other than Uncle Zhi.
What kind of mistake did he just made? How can he pick up his face from such shame?
Not carrying about the obese man and everyone else in the room, Fei Tao wanted to say something, but he suddenly got a chill. He rubs his arms and pout his lip.
"Why did it suddenly turn cold? Mami, is your heater broken?"
Behind Yue Ling and Uncle Zhi, the five people standing like statues were struck speechless.
Lian Ni Shang sighs inside as Gui Tian Lan and Gui Zhongmin shook their head. Qi Li quietly clears his throat while the corners of Tang Zhonghui's lip curls up.
Each person already knew the reason behind the sudden chill Fei Tao was feeling.
Yue Ling stares at the boy as she did not know how to answer his question. Her eyes subconsciously glance to a part of the ceiling before looking back at the young man.
"The heater is eating vinegar."
Her last word fell, and she walks over to the main seat to sit. Seeing her do so, Fei Tai was confused at her words, but quickly brushing it aside, he turns around to head back to his seat.
As she took her seat, so did everyone else. However, the five leaders who have not met her before could not help but stare at her curiously with a mixture of doubt.
Is she really the leader of Fate? None of them would have believed it if it weren't for the way Fei Tao addressed her. Even Li Wei, Qin Yi and Chu Qiang greeted her with respect.
Even though Yue Ling knew what they were thinking, she pays no mind to it. Her bluish green eyes looks at one person to another.
After she left the underworld, the doors to Fate remained closed with her as everyone went on to start their new life. However, she never thought she would be back here.
To sit at this table and meet with the leaders of the underworld again.
Her eyes slowly flutter, and she part her lips to speak.
"I'm sure you are all curious about why I have gathered you all here today."
She leans back on her chair and cross her leg. Her elbows rested on the armrest as her fingers intwine together.
"I made it clear when I said Fate was leaving the underworld. I also stated that so long as no one from the underworld crosses my line, Fate won't return."
Her eyes slowly shifts to Steelhead, then Gao Jie. She looks at them dead in the eyes like she was the grim reaper coming to collect their souls.
"However, someone thought it was a great idea to cross my line, not once, but twice."
Slightly tilting her head, she looks to the middle-aged man seated to her left. Despite him being older than her, she held no signs of respect.
"This person left a very intriguing message, 'A life for a life'."
The corner of lip arc up into a mesmerizing smile that made the entire room drop in temperature.
"If it is a life he wants, Fate will gladly grant him this wish."
Sitting next to her, Chu Qiang did not dare to look her in the eyes. He struggle a gulp and stares down at the table as he knew exactly who she was referring to.
In the far seat to the right, Fei Tao slams his fist on the table and stood up. His nostrils flare with steam and blood boils in madness inside.
"Who is this imbecile? How dare he think to cross my Mami's line! Give me his name, I will make him wish he was never born."
As the meeting continue, on the sixth floor of Fate, Liu Shan, Lin Hui and Xu Long stayed in the computer room as they were to observe the situation in the meeting room.
However, the three men at this moment were occupied with another thing.
The aloof business king is also in the room, and he is staring murderously at the screen that zoomed in on Fei Tao's face.
He doesn't say a word, but the three men knew that Lu Tian is on the brink of unleashing his wrath of jealousy at the young man.
"Lu Tian, that kid… that kid is like a little brother to my boss."
Liu Shan trembles his words to try and calm the man. However, all he got was a cold glare that made all the hair on body stand.
He swallows a gulp and he secretly nudge Lin Hui with his elbow. Getting the man's attention, he gestures with his head to the door.
Sitting on a swivel chair with wheels, Lin Hui quickly understood. He stretch his arms out and sounds a yawn. Doing so, he didn't forget to push himself to slide across the room to block the door.
Both men knows that Lu Tian is holding himself back from striding out of this room. So they need to do everything they can just in case the unimaginable happens.
As this took place, Xu Long sat in his chair at the far end of the room. He face the window with eyes closed. Both his palms clasp together, and he prays with his shaking hands.
'Buddha, if you can me, I have been good, and I have never done any evil. Today, my lady boss gifted me a very expensive car. Please let me continue to live to drive this new car as I have not driven it yet. I pray to you for me, for my boss, and for all the people here.'
Lu Tian was oblivious to the other three men in the room. He looks at Fei Tao's face for another long second before his gaze shifts back to his wife.
He didn't like how the young man is too comfortable with his wife, but he can't let something like this get to him. He cannot let his temper get out of control or else his wife's meeting will be sabotage by him.
For now, he will ignore this matter until the end of the meeting.
His eyes subconsciously glance to another screen that showed the pitch-black outer part of Fate.
"Xu Long."
He spoke his word and turn to look at his assistant. However, the second he saw the position the three men were in, he was struck dumbfounded.
Liu Shan sat a car length away from him, Lin Hui sat blocking the door and Xu Long was praying out the window.
One look and he could already guess why they were acting this way. He casually clears his throat to get their attention.
"How is the situation outside?"
