Chapter 208 - The Secret Meeting

She could faintly sense the lingering smell of gunpowder and blood from him. Her eyebrows creased a bit before she snuggled even closer. "Welcome back, Hubby."

"En, I'm back."

Long Ying's smile turned wider when he heard how Yu Yan addressed him. She was more used to call him by his name, so he didn't pay attention to it at first. Now that she called him this way… hum… he liked it so much.

At the front, An Lin was keeping a straight face while driving the car back home. For the nth time since he met Yu Yan, he still hoped that there was a method to melt himself to the chair. 

That way, he could just focus on driving and not have to listen to these two….

Yu Yan hugged Long Ying and then took off his coat. She was inspecting whether he had wounds or not, a habit that she had developed whenever she sensed the smell of blood from him.

"I'm not wounded." Long Ying looked at his wife helplessly. "But if you want me to undress, I don't mind."

"Ei, if you're not wounded, then there's no need." Yu Yan glared at him, giving him warning to not cross the line here. They were not alone, alright!

Long Ying laughed faintly and stroked his wife's hair tenderly. He looked at her and thought for a moment. "There'll be some bad news regarding Long Family in the near future. You can ignore it."

"Will it involve you?"

"I might have to get involved, but I'll make sure that I'm fine." Long Ying replied helplessly and patted his wife's head again. The gesture felt comfortable for him, so much that he didn't wish to stop at all.

Yu Yan nodded and sighed. It seemed that the upheaval that occurred in Long Family would not end anytime soon. And here she wished that she could spend more time with Long Ying without the need to worry about those things.

The couple talked about some matters on their way back. Afterwards, they had dinner together, take a bath, then prepared to rest for the day. By now, the servants were already used to the dog food that their masters kept on feeding them.

An Lin opened his phone when the couple were already upstairs.

An Lin: *urgent* what should I do so that I can push Lan Huo to stay in the mansion and let me do the mission instead.

Lan Huo: (spit out water.jpg) what the hell! Do you think I would want to stay in the mansion and be fed dog food all day long? NO WAY!

An Lin: Sister in law, help me!

San Xia: Why should I help you?

An Lin: I'll bring you…. new product from Xingyan Company?

Lan Huo: Scram! You're just going to ask that from Madam. Besides, who didn't know that it's expensive. With your meagre sum of money, how do you expect to be able to afford it?

An Luo: Tsk, if it's asking Madam, I can do it.

An Lin: (cry.jpg)

Lan Huo: You're the right hand, so just handle the issue on your own.

An Lin: Lan Huo! I dare you to go to the martial arena and let me beat you up! If you lose, you have to replace me!

Lan Huo: What the hell! Only those who managed to win will be able to get your position there! And don't you dare to purposely loss or Boss will punish you to wear weights even when you're guarding.

An Lin: R#$%^&*(!

An Luo: What an idiot.

An Lin: BROTHER!

Lan Huo: Tsk, blame yourself for having the best skill yet the worst IQ. Just stay there and enjoy the feast of dog food.

An Lin: Lan Huo! You b*stard! Come back here!

San Xia watched the conversation and shook her head. Currently, she was staying on the rooftop of a building in another clan's territory. There would be a mission soon.

"San Xia, stay focused."

"You also busy chatting, Dear." San Xia chuckled and leaned closer to the wall. Her eyes narrowed as she saw several people were coming out. One of them was a very familiar figure from Long Family.

"They're here."

"I can see them."

"Hmm, shall I shot his head? I'm very confident that I can kill him with a headshot. To think that he dares to scheme against Boss, I really want to be the one to end him." San Xia picked up her bag and started to assemble her sniper riffle.

From the other side of the building, An Luo naturally heard what San Xia was doing through their voice communication. He was utterly speechless. "Our task here is to watch for them so that we can know their plan. If they plan to involve Madam, we have to report to Boss and let him handle the counterplan."

"Tsk."

"Be patient. Boss didn't want us to be the one to kill his brother."

San Xia pursed her lips and put down the gun she was planning to assembly. Her hands skillfully disassembled the parts and tucked them back into the gun without hesitation. If one didn't know better, they might think of her as military officer rather that someone from the underworld.

Her skill was totally top notch. 

"Can you plant the bug?"

"I'm on my way."

An Luo was not at the top of the building and instead, he was at the first floor. When those people walked into the building, he swiftly moved from the side and walked in their direction with unstable steps.

Their brows furrowed when they saw him. 

"Drunkards?"

"The smell of alcohol is too much."

"Hmm?" An Luo pretended to only saw them then walked to circle them.

Those people also ignored him when they sensed the heavy smell of alcohol coupled with his flushed face. Besides, it was not that uncommon to see drunk people at this area.

"Let's get in."

"It's dirty." The man furrowed his brows.

"Make do with it."
