Chapter 234: Chapter 234 It is here

Liu Shan stare dumbfounded at the man with eyes twitching upwards. He wasn't dumbfounded about what he heard, but what he was looking at. If one was to see this, one would say how hideous Xu Long looked at this moment.

"Bro, do you have a girlfriend?"

Hearing this question, Xu Long's eyes turned to normal and his shoulder slump to the floor. How he wish to cry at this moment, but sadly, he lack the tears to.

"Why, Bro? Why? Why do you have to ask that...?"

Liu Shan blinked his eyes then rolled them.

"It's probably because you just did one of the most horrifying face I've ever seen."

Lifting his hand, he pats the man on the shoulder and sighed.

"Don't worry, since we're going to be 'family' soon, I'll help you."

He leans in on Xu Long and whispers, "I have a beautiful woman I'm seeing, I can ask if she has a friend for you."

"..."

*ding*

Xu Long was rendered speechless. He stare at the stylish man walking inside the suddenly opened elevator. When did he do one of the most horrifying face ever? And introduce? Will he finally get a girlfriend?

"Are you getting in or not?"

"I am!"

Like a soldier reporting for duty, Xu Long determinedly salute at Liu Shan's question. He quickly enters the elevator and more questions pour to his new family member.

How happy will his parents be when they find out that their workaholic son is going to actually meet women?!!

——

At the same time, in another part of Imperial Ji family's stunning Spanish mansion stood amongst the open vast field.

However, inside the only study room in the mansion, Old man Ji sat behind his desk. His eyes stare unblinking at the piece of paper in his hand.

"Zhang Yong, my day is closing in sooner than I had thought..."

Across him was his long time assistant, Zhang Yong. He set the paper down and close his eyes to take a deep breath.

Zhang Yong lower his head and wrinkle lips tremble. He has been in and out of the hospital with the old man everyday.

Whether it was good news or bad news, he has witnessed everything. Just from hearing those words, he knows that, that piece of paper brings nothing but bad news.

If things keep going south, he will have no choice but to betray the old man and tell Yue Ling.

If he tells her, maybe, just maybe—

"Don't even think about telling her."

Old man Ji glares at his assistant. One glance was enough to see what he was thinking about. As the person by his side for so long, how can he not understand his assistant.

Moving his eyes back to the piece of paper, he opens a drawer and set it down under some folders.

"I will ask Yue Ling one last time. If she does not want to, then I will have no choice but to hand Ji Corps to the other members."

Zhang Yong's eyes widen hearing old man Ji's words. He clench his fist tightly and his breathing turned rapid.

"Chairman, I'm sure young Miss will understand. If you hand Ji Corps to the other family, all your hard work would be destroyed!"

"Enough."

Old man Ji interrupts Zhang Yong. He lower his head and glance down at his wrinkle hands that are slightly trembling.

"Yue Ling is already the owner of two great corporations. I cannot force a third one on her if she doesn't wish to take over."

He clench his trembling hands into tight fists to ease the tension.

"There's no need to add more weigh onto her shoulders."

"....."

Zhang Yong did not know what to say. His head still lowered and all he could do is slowly nod his head in understanding. However, he did so to hide his redden eyes that are on the verge of crying.

"Let's go. I need to speak with my lawyer about my will."

Both men leave the study and exit the mansion. Zhang Yong helps old man Ji in the car and gets inside the driver seat.

From inside the car, Old man Ji stare out to certain area from afar where a group of soldiers are running. His entire being soften when he sees a figure he is very familiar with. This figure is laughing and getting along with the others.

A smile curl on his lip at the sight of his grandson, who had always opposed of training.

'Jingxu, I will do everything in my power to make sure that those people do not hurt you or force you leave the Ji family. Even after I leave this world, I will protect you and Yue Ling.'

Back at Jade Condos inside Yue Ling and Lu Tian's penthouse, both couches are occupied. On one couch sat the power couple while the other couch sat the two assistants.

Liu Shan and Xu Long both swallowed at the same time. Their forehead sweating with beads of sweat that isn't there. One is actually afraid of the lady boss and the other afraid of the boss man.

Like ancient time, they felt as if they were an innocent couple coming face to face of the emperor and empress.

Dear god, what crimes did they commit in their past life to be under such intimidating pressure?

Oblivious to both assistant's feelings, Yue Ling stood up from her seat. She glance at Liu Shan and points to the study room.

"We'll discuss our issues in there."

Liu Shan looks at his boss then to emperor. He slouch his shoulders and cried inside. If it wasn't for himself fighting the urge to not fall, he would have fallen to his knees and cry to the heavens above.

'Why Boss? Why? Do you not know that your husband is the King of Jealousy? Why? *sob*'

Left with no other choice, he reluctantly follows after Yue Ling who has already enter the study room.

From behind, Xu Long lift a hand and wipe his imaginary tears away. How can his lady do this to him and Liu Shan? Can't buddha finally show pity upon Liu Shan and him for working under powerful people...

What has come to the world?

"Report."

"Mm mm, Boss no need to be jealous. Lady boss only has you in her heart.... eh?"

Xu Long's head tilt as he thought he heard wrong. His head turn around, but all he sees is Inu sleeping lazily in bed. He frown and looks at his boss.

"..."

Lu Tian sat leaning lazily against the couch. Both his arms crossed over his chest, but his eyes glaring dumbfounded at his assistant.

Seeing this, Xu Long force a laugh and scratch the back of his head. He had thought his boss would be angry about his lady boss going into a room with a man, but who would have thought the other.

"Heh heh... boss, forget anything I said."

He clears his throat and takes out his phone. Typing in something, he hands it to Lu Tian.

"It's here. Everything is prepared, including you know what."

Lu Tian takes the phone and glance at it. He nod his head approvingly.

"When will it be here?"

"Tonight. H International has sent someone to deliver it to Lu Corps."

"Mm."

Xu Long glance at his almighty boss then to the study room. He sighed inside and then continue his report.

"What do you want me to do about Black Dragon?"

At the question, Lu Tian's eyes slowly blinked. He looks down at the phone then to Inu.

"For now, we will fall back."

A warning has been given to Black Dragon's leader. Also, with Li Wei who controls half of Retro, no one will dare to make another reckless move.

If his wife is really the leader of Fate then that means she is connected to General Ji and the old man from back then. Only thing is, he never asked for the old man's name. Everything about Fate is like a tightly shut chest that no one can even crack open.

However, how is his wife connected to Grandfather Ji? It was said the old man has a granddaughter, but that granddaughter is called something else.

Not only that, Inu and grandfather Ji's communication from the other day at the Lu Household was very suspicious....

Thinking of it, he couldn't help but think about when he saw his wife walked pass him and stood face to face with the leader of Black Dragon.

For a brief second, he actually thought she was the mysterious person he and his team had encountered with Ghost Gang. However, that couldn't be possible, his wife is too innocent and pure to kill without batting an eye.

As he denies the thought, another part of him can't help but ask, just how many secrets is his wife hiding?
