Chapter 663: Chapter 663 Divine award

*Ding

The private elevator inside Lu Corps chimes in arrival on the highest floor level. The doors slide open and Lu Tian's tall figure strides. He doesn't stop but makes his way towards his office.

"Morning Boss!"

Xu Long was already waiting for his arrival and greets him like usual. However, when he saw Lu Tian's expression and the air, he brought along with him, he (Xu Long) was in a daze.

Usually, Lu Tian's mood is gloomy and indifferent, like there were always dark clouds lingering above him. However, something was different today. There was a very minor feeling of warmth around him and he (Xu Long) can see a very tiny smile.

Staring at the smile that is barely noticeable, Xu Long felt a shiver crawl down his spine. Both his hands raise to his lip and he starts biting his nails as he trembles.

'Who in God's name anger his boss?'

He nervously follows after the ruthless man and contemplates in his head. He tries to recall everything that has happened, but no matter how much he tried, there was nothing that could possibly anger the man.

Just as Lu Tian opens the door to his office, Xu Long's jaw drops to the floor and he stares with wide eyes at the man.

The air around his boss isn't the usual murderous air, but a happy one.

His fingers still being bitten uncurls and he covers his mouth as a creepy grin curls on his lip.

'Could it be that boss and the boss lady finally…'

"Xu Long."

Before his thoughts could travel too far, Lu Tian's deep voice brings him back to reality. Xu Long wanted to answer yes, but the man in front of him spoke first.

"Did you buy the mop?"

Xu Long was confused at first, but quick to understand, he nods his head and dashes towards his office. He returns at the speed of lightning with a mop and shows his boss.

He held it out in one hand, and he wore a proud expression.

"I purchased the best one in the market. I even had it express shipped overnight."

Lu Tian was dumbfounded beyond anything. However, thanking his aloofness, he was able to keep his composure under control.

He stares at his assistant, then down at the mop. He gives an order then turns away to enter his office.

"Mop the entire floor. Once you're done, return that mop to the custodian then report back in my office."

"…"

This time, it was Xu Long's turn to be dumbfounded. His jaw that had yet to close drops more like it had reached the first floor. He could not believe what he had just heard.

Secretary Ye sat behind her seat nearby the two men. She had heard the entire conversation and laughs loudly at the poor assistant.

"See, I told you that wouldn't fool boss at all."

Hearing the woman who had been quiet for a while now, Xu Long robotically turns his head to look at her. He wanted to retort her words, but think about what she said, he could only sigh in disappointment. She was right.

His boss had been ordering him to buy a mop, so he finally did. Well, he didn't actually buy it but borrowed it from the custodian. When he said he had express shipped overnight, he meant the custodian delivered it.

However, he never thought his boss would be so attentive and saw through his lie.

He heaves a long sigh in sympathy for his poor self but sighs harder again when he remembers his boss's words.

"Well, it's all or nothing."

Shaking off all the feelings inside him, he inhales a deep breath that causes him to draw in his stomach. As he exhales deeply, he frees his mind and firmly grabs hold of the mop handle with both hands.

He doesn't waste any time and begins mopping the floor in swift forward and backward motions.

As he did this, he takes on the role of a Shaolin monk in training and the mop became his wooden staff.

"Hai-yah!"

He roars fiercely like a tiger in battle and poses in a rooster stance with the mop in one hand.

Taking another deep breath to meditate his free mind, his head turns to look at the dumbstruck Secretary Ye.

"I have fulfilled my training."

He lowers his leg that was bent up and walks over to Secretary Ye's desk. In a flat tone, he hands the mop to her.

"I hope you can send this divine mop to Lord Custodian as I must seek my Master for my next training."

Secretary Ye didn't know why but she could not take her eyes away from the man. She subconsciously takes the mop from him and nods her head in understanding.

Her expression and feelings were visible to the eyes, but Xu Long wasn't bothered by it. He clasps his palms together and gestures a bow.

"Amituofo."

"…"

Secretary Ye was at a loss. Her head follows the man's every move and seeing him steps away from entering their boss's office, she broke free from her trance.

"Ah, Assistant Xu, you didn't mop the entire floor."

Hearing her words, Xu Long stops in his tracks and turns back to look at her. He kept a straight face while pondering over her words.

He shrugs his shoulders and places one hand near his chest as the other stuck out at his side. His thumb held his middle and ring fingers and his eyes rolled back.

"Boss didn't say which part of the entire floor."

He flashes a quick grin at her and darts at the speed of lightning inside Lu Tian's office. He also made sure to shut the door so that Secretary Ye doesn't try to get him in trouble.

Inside the office, Lu Tian had only removed his coat when he saw his assistant enter the room. He glances at Xu Long for a quick second before hanging his coat up and walks over to sit down behind his desk.

"Report."

Xu Long smiles with flowers floating around him. He skips over to his boss and stops in front of the man's desk with both his hands held in front of him.

"This pupil has mopped the entire floor as Master had ordered. It is now spotless, and no dust can be seen."

"…"

Lu Tian stares with slightly heavy eyes at the person standing in front of him. He wanted to smack his forehead at his assistant's out of this world personality. He had long heard the conversation that took place outside his office but decided to ignore it.

Now, he can't help but wonder if he should replace Xu Long with a member of Wolf Team. However, knowing he can't since Xu Long has the expertise of being an assistant, he raises one hand to massage his temple.

"How did the meeting with Chief Kim's men go?"

Xu Long was baffled by the question. He lifts one hand to scratch his head and chuckles sarcastically. When his boss said 'report', he thought the man was referring to him mopping the floor.

He lowers his hand and clears his throat before giving the correct report.

"Kira was the only one who showed up since Qin Jun and Song Jing Li were meeting a source, but the meeting went well. They will continue to keep tabs on locating Choi Li Sun's whereabouts and will not cause any trouble."

Listening to the report, Lu Tian didn't need to ask for further details. He trusts his assistant and knows that Xu Long won't do or say anything unnecessary.

He reaches to the right of him and opens one of the drawers connected to his desk. Grabbing something inside, he set it down on his desk and turn to switch his computer on.

"It's yours now."

Xu Long was deranged by the aloof man. He looks down at what was given to him and both his brows arch up in realization.

"T-This… is really…."

His remaining words caught in his throat and Lu Tian leans back on his chair.

"The keys to my old penthouse at Jade Condos."

Xu Long doesn't pick up the keys right away but covers his mouth. He thought his boss was only bluffing about giving him the place.

After a long minute passes by, he finally lowers his hands and picks up the keys. He held in both hands and stares at it like it was his most prized possession in the world.

"My precious…"

Seeing his assistant turn into Gollum, Lu Tian staggered a little in his chair. He clears his throat and averts his gaze to his computer screen.

"That is all, you can go now."

Xu Long nods his head and leaves the room as Lu Tian turns to glance out the window.

Since the rain has stopped, he should use any free time he has between his meetings to start his preparations.

As Lu Tian begins his work, outside his office, Xu Long skips in the direction of his office. He held the key out in front of him and a trail of rainbow follows behind him.

Secretary Ye saw the man and grew carious about what is making him so happy.

"Assistant Xu, what is that?"

Xu Long comes to a screeching stop and flung his head to look at the woman. He shows her the key and proudly raises his chin up.

"You see this? This is when you fulfill your duty in training and Master grants you a divine award."
