Chapter 406: Chapter 406 Traitors

Nearing the late afternoon, Yue Ling and her team along with Lu Tian and Xu Long continued to clean up the mess befell inside Uncle Zhi's shop.

However, unlike everyone, Yue Ling held a sulking expression. Due to her pregnancy she was limited to doing things. Well, more like she couldn't do anything at all.

Every time she reached for something, someone would suddenly appear out of no where and grab the item.

Walking to the far corner of the room, she sighs in relief as no one seemed to have gotten to this part of the store. She knows that they are worried about her, but it's not like she cannot be of any help.

Reaching down for a piece of cloth that was once used as a shelf liner, she decides to pick it up.

However, just as she was about to bend down to grab it, a larger hand was faster and picks it up.

"…"

Yue Ling stares at the ground in a daze. She sighs inside and straightens her posture.

Turning to look at the person, she takes a deep breath.

Lifting a hand, she pinch the space between her brows while her other hand fists at her hip.

"Tian, its only a piece of cloth."

Seeing the irritated look in her face, Lu Tian paid no attention to it. He looks at her then down to the cloth now in his hand.

It was covered in dirt and some parts of it was missing.

Anyone who sees it would agree with her that it's only a piece of cloth, but…

"You can accidently suffocate from this."

Without waiting to see her reaction, Lu Tian turns away and throws the cloth away.

Even if this is just a piece of cloth, the shop is in a mess. What if she accidently trips on something and falls? Or what if her face landed on the cloth? It can stop her from breathing.

Yue Ling lower her hand and stares at the man. She was at a loss for all words. Her mouth opened and closed to say something, but to no avail, nothing came out.

Unable to think straight, she turns to her team for some kind of help.

Everyone was amused at what they were seeing and in smiles of how Lu Tian is so overly protective. However, when Yue Ling turned to face them, everyone quickly looks away.

It was like they did not know anything or see anything.

Yue Ling: "…"

Seeing how her own team turned a blind eye to her. Yue Ling scoffs in disbelief. She looks at Lu Tian then to her team again.

"Traitors."

"…"

Standing a few feet away Liu Shan was dumbfounded when he heard his boss's words. He sighs inside and shook his head.

Boss, if only you knew. Your husband has been giving us cold eyes if we allowed you pick up anything.

In a close distance to the assistant, Qi Li shook his head at his boss. He pays no attention to what she said and continues to pick up more things from the ground.

However, when Xu Long heard her word, he gasps aloud with his mouth widely open. His head quickly turn in every direction.

"Traitor? Where? Who's the traitor?! Ack!"

The back of his head is suddenly smacked, and he glares at the person with a raging voice.

"Lin! Hui!"

Lin Hui stares at Xu Long with a nonchalant expression and fold his arms over his chest.

"Xu Long, how can you be such an idiot? My boss meant all of us are the traitors."

As he spoke his words, his hand motions a circle indicating all of them, then he points to the man.

"That includes you."

"…"

Xu Long slowly lift his hand to soothe the back of his head and listens to Lin Hui. However, when he was told that he is a traitor, his jaw dropped to the floor in disbelief.

Never has he been labeled a traitor!!

Paying no attention to the assistant and subordinate, Lu Tian walks back to his wife. He place a palm behind her back and ushers her in a direction.

"You've worked very hard and must be tired. Let me take you to rest."

Yue Ling looks up at the man and wanted to refute his words, but she was met with a smile that sent chills down her spine.

Lu Tian's smile was very faint and heart fluttering, but his eyes said otherwise.

She knows that if she does not do as he says, who knows what he will do.

Left with no other choice, her shoulders slump downwards and she allows him to guide her to wherever he plans to take her.

With her head lower and eyes on her feet, she did not realize Lu Tian had brought her outside. However, it was not the front of the store but in the back.

"Ah, Yue Ling, come join me here."

Uncle Zhi calls out to her cheerfully as he fans himself with a piece of paper he had turned into a fan.

He sat on a chair under the shade and was enjoying his time when he say the couple walk out from the building.

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Yue Ling looks at him and she felt even more defeated inside.

She isn't even old and yet, she has to sit out like she had become an old grandma.

However, seeing that Ju Suo was also there, she felt a little better.

"Be good and wait here. It's dangerous inside."

Lu Tian calmly spoke his words as he guides her closer to the two people sitting under the shade.

When Yue Ling heard his words, her eyes turned extremely heavy. Without turning her head to look at him, her eyes looks up to the man from the corner of her eyes.

Met with this new look of hers, Lu Tian couldn't help but chuckle. Even if she did not say a word, the look on her face says it all.

Ignoring all the silent protests she had thrown his way, he helps her sit down and leaves her in Uncle Zhi and Ju Suo's care. Kissing her on the forehead, he turns around and heads back inside to help clean up.

"Aiya, young love. So pure and sweet. I wish I was young again."

Uncle Zhi couldn't help teasingly chuckles his words as he fans himself.

When he left Fate to start his new life, he had met Lu Tian a few times and heard about the young man.

Known as a ruthless man who doesn't have an ounce of mercy for anyone, he never thought he would ever see this gentle side of the cold blooded man.

And even better, this affection is all directed at his young Miss.

Yue Ling held a sulking expression, but when she heard the man's words full of teasing, she cast a glare at him.

"Uncle Zhi, don't you have something better to do?"

Though her eyes seemed like they were shooting out sharp daggers that can pierce someone in the heart, Uncle Zhi was not affected by it all. It was like the paper fan in his hand had turned into a shield and blocked all the daggers with each wave.

"I am doing something better."

He covers his mouth with the fan and chuckles.

"I was told by the youngsters inside that I should take a break."

Moving the fan away, he leans back on the chair and smiles a smile that reach his eyes.

"So, I am doing as told."

Which was the truth. Everyone inside said for him to sit outside and rest while they do the cleaning.

Since that was the case, he decided to act like an old man and let the younger people do the work.

Yue Ling stares at him with a face full of doubt. She didn't even care to hide her feelings. Of course, she is only this way to those who are close to her.

Growing up in the darkness of the underworld, Uncle Zhi had been a father figure to her.

Shaking her head, she couldn't help but smile with the man. Turning to the right, she looks at Ju Suo and was dumbfounded.

"What are you doing?"

Ju Suo who muted Yue Ling and Uncle Zhi's conversation was immersed in her own world. Her back was turned to the two people, but her hands seems to be fumbling with her face.

When she heard her boss's voice, she pause in what she was doing and turn to look at them.

She smiles a wide grin and her cheerful childlike voice sounds.

"I'm putting on up my makeup."

"…"

Seeing her face, Yue Ling's eyes turned heavy and she felt like she had suddenly walked into a circus. While Uncle Zhi who was waving the fan at himself almost fell out of his chair.

He looks at Ju Suo in horror and choked on his own saliva.

"J-Ju Suo, who taught you how to put on makeup?"
