Chapter 745: Chapter 745 For the bes

Chapter 745 For the bes

The sky above Imperial sweep in darkness and the night was tranquil. However, inside the abandoned factory hidden in the forest was replaced with a minacious air. Any person who enters at this moment would tremble in fear and want to run away, but only one man stood unperturbed.

Liu Shan's brown eyes stare at each person in the room and he knew where he had messed up. He didn't do intentionally as it was a habit of his that he can't seem to let go of.

However, being stared at by those intense gazes like he was a prey waiting to be devoured, he heaves a long sigh.

Even if he wanted to leave at this moment, he knows that Qin Jun, Kira, and Song Jing Li won't let him. That is unless he gives them an explanation.

Knowing he is left with no other choice but to stay, he positions his body to face the three men. He casually puts his hands inside the pockets of his coat and his demeanor turns into one of carelessness.

"Why should I tell you the truth? It's not like you're going to waltz out of here and go see her."

He spoke in a calm voice but to the three men, each word was like daggers that pierced right through their hearts.

"Whether you know or not, from what I can see, you'll still use that lame excuse you've been using."

He may have hinted that something happened to his boss while they moved here, but will he tell them?

Of course not. It's not his place to speak and judging from the answer he was given earlier, there was no point in telling these men anything. No matter what he says, Qin Jun will never allow them to give away their position here.

Qin Jun, Kira, and Song Jing Li could only stare at the assistant in silence. Liu Shan's tone was calm, but they could hear the ridicule behind it. However, he (Liu Shan) was right. His small gesture was enough to let them know that something had happened to Yue Ling, but it was not their place to ask.

However, being the first to come back to his senses, Qin Jun stood up from his seat and his eyes darkened at the assistant.

"I asked you to tell the truth. Why are you beating around the bush?"

He knows that Liu Shan is a stubborn man at times, but so is he. If he has to force the assistant to speak, he will. Even if that meant threatening the man.

Both Kira and Song Jing Li were at a loss as their head darts to look at the man leading their group. From his (Qin Jun) tone of voice, they knew that he was being serious. They wanted to tell Liu Shan to stop beating around the bush and tell them or else face Qin Jun's wrath but held themselves back when they realized they didn't need to.

Liu Shan glance at each person until his eyes settled back on Qin Jun. He had spent many years by Yue Ling's side and as her assistant, he was always observant of others.

Like this very moment, he could already guess what is on the three men's minds.

He slightly raises his chin and rolled his eyes without any fear of Qin Jun's wrath.

"Give me a good reason why I should tell you when none of you contacted her since she left City Z?"

His words fell with a scoffing chuckle as the aura around him no longer belongs to that of an assistant, but a strong and confident member of Fate.

The color of his pupil seemed to have changed into black and he stares indifferently at the three men.

"Did you all really think she wouldn't know why?"

A chill crept up the back of all three men as Liu Shan's question sounded. It wasn't only his words but the change of his demeanor.

It was as if he had turned into the grim reaper out to collect their souls if they gave him the wrong answer.

No, to be exact, it was like he turned to his old self. As if the man standing in front of them was no longer the carefree Liu Shan, but the Mad Reaper.

"We thought it would be for the best."

Qin Jun was the first to answer. He reaches inside his pocket and takes out a cigarette to smoke as he needed to calm his mind.

He knows that the assistant has every right to say what he said. They had bid Yue Ling farewell with her thinking they understood her reason for moving. However, behind all the smiles they showed her that day, it was nothing but a façade.

The second she left City Z, every one of them, excluding Hana and little Shin, decided to cut ties with her.

They thought that by doing so, it was the only way she could find happiness and live an ordinary life. If they disappear from her world, she will be able to move on from anything that tied her back to Shin.

However, the idea was harder said than done.

Not a day goes by that any of them didn't think about her. There were days he would pick up his phone and wanted to call her, but he could only force himself back.

As no one said another word, Liu Shan sneers a soft chuckle at them. He knew why they never contacted his boss and so did she. However, did they not stop to think if it was fair for her?

He scans the people in the room, and his eyes dimmed a shade darker.

Yue Ling had already lost so many people in her life. To her, the people standing in this room were like family to her. She made the decision to move to Imperial was to be with her yeye and Ji Jingxu. Yet, this so-called family of hers did not try to understand and decided to disappear from her life.

"Now I see why she never once bothered to ask me how any of you are doing."

His sharp words sent another wave of suffocation into the hearts of the three men. He sighs deeply and his words continue.

"Then again, she might have not asked me, but I can see it in her eyes that she still thinks about you all from time to time."

He averts his gaze from Qin Jun and slightly turns his head to the left at Song Jing Li.

"Especially Shin."

As Yue Ling's assistant and her closest subordinate, he might not be able to read her mind ninety-five percent of the time, but during the other five percent, he could.

And he was able to distinguish how hurt she must have been when she realized that these three men didn't want to be apart of her life anymore.

He brushes these thoughts and feelings aside as he didn't feel like staying anymore. He had done what he came here to do. However, as he turned away, he sees the dejected look on each person.

His eyes slowly flutter, and he proceeds to the door to leave the place. He reaches for the doorknob and without looking back at them, he parts his lips.

"Li Wei."

All three men abruptly look in his direction, but before anyone could say a word, Liu Shan had already disappeared out the door.

Each person held a confused expression, but in the next second, they understood the meaning of why the name was given to them.

Qin Jun looks at Kira and his head nods once to give a silent order as the long-haired man strides over to his computer station.

However, unlike them, Song Jing Li walks over to a window near the door Liu Shan had exited and he stares out to the red car.

Oblivious and not caring about what the three men inside were doing, Liu Shan sat in his car and did not hesitate to drive away from the building.

He steals a glance at the rearview mirror and sees the silhouette of Song Jing Li by the window. His lower lip purse and he mumbles to himself with a faint feeling of guilt inside.

"Was I too hard on them?"
