"Wait for me! Can't you guys see that I am handicap?"
"What are you talking about? I'm more handicap than you!"
"Can you both be quiet. All morning I've heard nothing but your whining!"
"He started it!"
"No! He did!"
Inside the house, Lu Tian frown in listening. His wife said Liu Shan is coming, so why are their two other voices? And why does one of them sound like his assistant?
He brush the thought away and continues to the door. Reaching for the door handle, he opens it.
"SHUT UP!!!"
The moment he opened the door, a loud thundering voice roars from the outside and echoes into the empty house.
Outside, Liu Shan's chest heave up and down. His back turned to the door and face the other two people. He is on the verge of losing his temper at the idiots.
Before coming here, he had taken them to the hospital to check their wounds.
Xu Long, who was crying about his broken leg only suffered a sprain on his ankle. Due to the swelling, he had to wear an ankle brace and use crutches to easily move around.
As for Lin Hui, he claimed his ribs were fractured, but the pain was from a bruise. The back of his head was what suffered the most. He has a gauze wrapped around his head because he ended up needing 48 stitches from the cut.
Other than the major wounds, both men were covered in gauze pads and band aid for the minor wounds.
Seeing both men quickly quiet down, Liu Shan snorts a hmmf at them.
"What? You two finally decided to be obedient?"
Unlike the two annoying idiots they were seconds ago, Lin Hui and Xu Long dare not to utter a word. Only two sets of eyes stare at Liu Shan and nods their head in response.
Liu Shan pout his lip. He found it strange but decides not to push it. As he was about to turn around, he felt a sudden chill on his back. He looks up at the clear blue sky and frown.
There's no wind so why am I cold?
His eyes blink confusingly and turn to the door.
However, in that very moment, he froze in place along with everything around him. He finally understood why the two idiots behind him stopped arguing.
It wasn't because of him, but because of the man standing at door! Oh God!!
Lu Tian's majestic figure stood quietly at the door. One hand inside the front pocket of his pant and the other hand resting on the door.
He kept a straight face with no emotion, but if one looked carefully, one can see one of his brows slightly raise.
He looks at the three men and wanted to laugh at their amusing interaction towards one another. However, letting them keep their dignity, he suppress the urge to laugh or smile.
Pulling the door open more, he leaves it open and turns away.
"Come inside when you guys are done."
Watching the cold business king leave, the three subordinates were at a loss for words.
Liu Shan swallow with difficulty and without looking at the two men, he quickly enters the house.
Left outside, Lin Hui leans toward Xu Long as he shivers. He is so thankful that his boss is nice.
"Xu Long, when I visit the temple, I will pray for you."
"…"
Upon entering the house, Yue Ling was dumbfounded when she saw not only Liu Shan, but Xu Long and Lin Hui.
However, seeing Xu Long and Lin Hui's appearance, she couldn't help but chuckle. From what she remembers they clearly did not look like this after leaving Jade Condos.
"Well, you two must have had a great night."
Due to the house not having any furnitures to sit, Xu Long and Lin Hui could only sit on the stairs. Neither spoke a word when they heard Yue Ling's jokingly words. Both men were embarrassed by their appearance.
How can they tell their bosses that it was Liu Shan who saved them after getting beaten black and blue?
Yue Ling looks at the two pitiful men. From their expressions, she already had an idea of what happened to them. Deciding not to push her teases, she looks at Liu Shan with a faint smile.
"I'm really alright."
Liu Shan who stood at the side had watery eyes. He nods his head and wipes the tears that had to fall.
"I'm sorry I wasn't a better assistant. I'll take full responsibility for what happened to you."
"…."
He was truly sorry. As her assistant, he should have been the first to detect any movements planned on her. It's his negligence that caused her to encounter danger.
However, knowing that what is done cannot be undone, he sighs aloud. His eyes subconsciously looks away from his boss and he was dumbfounded.
Lu Tian at this moment was staring at him with such murderous eyes.
Did he say or do something wrong?
Watching from the stairs, Xu Long was in disbelief. He wished so badly to strangle Liu Shan. If it was not Lin Hui holding him back, he would have succeeded.
Holding the assistant back, even Lin Hui felt no difference to the man. He could not believe that Liu Shan had the audacity to say he'll take responsibility for their boss. Does he not see the man (Lu Tian) on the verge of ending his (Liu Shan) life?
Yue Ling felt the sudden chill and was just as dumbfounded as her assistant. She clears her throat and decided it was best to calm the man from granting Liu Shan a death wish.
"Tian, what your thinking is not what he meant."
Hearing his wife cooed to him, Lu Tian's cold aura disperse. He looks away from Liu Shan to his wife. Seeing her lovely face, he sighs a faint smile that only she can see.
"Only I can be responsible for you."
