Chapter 12 WE ARE HERE TO PICK YOU UP

President Li was thinking about the last time they saw each other.

Nine months ago.....

He went to Italy with his family. His son was one year old back then.

Though he only wanted his family to come, his wife insisted to take her younger sister.

He couldn't refuse. Moreover, he thought that it might be better if she could see him happy with his family, it would give her more pain.

After they finished their meal, they went for a stroll in the night city of Milan.

He was holding his wife's hand and her head was on his shoulder as they walked. Their child was in his arms sleeping.

His wife was very happy because he never showed this type of affection to her.

And *that* girl was behind them.

As they were walking, suddenly a group of men came and stopped them in their tracks.

They looked like gangsters, only watching them in glances, he would understand.

He growled in a low voice, "What do you want?"

"We want the woman behind you. Miss, come with us without struggling, no one will get hurt in any way." One of the gangsters replied.

'So he is the leader.' He thought.

He would love to make her miserable but he could never hand her over to some gangsters. He knew their rules. Not to mention, his own brother was the king of the Chinese Underworld.

Before she could give an answer, he shielded her.

"She won't go anywhere." He sneered.

The gangsters laughed. "Really? If we take her, what will you do? What can you do? You're in the disadvantage, dude." They mocked and their eyes became bloodshot."So back off. Don't test our patience."

As they were talking a police car arrived. The gangsters hid the family with their bodies so that the police couldn't see them.

A police officer stepped out of the vehicle.

"Officer Roy, it's been a while. How are you doing?" The gang leader asked cheerfully. 'Damn that officer, disturbing us at such a crucial moment!'

"You're here together… Looking for trouble?" Officer Roy asked.

"Haha, Officer, can't we have fun too?"

As they were talking, the girl gripped his hand.

He looked at her with displeasure.

But she didn't care. She was already used to his sudden change of behavior.

She signaled him to back away without any sound.

Slowly they did so.

As they backed away and reached out almost 30 meters, "By the way, your preys are getting out of your hands boys." Officer Roy looked relaxed as he lit up a cigarette and leant against his car.

Quickly the gangsters looked behind them.

'Damn it.' President Li thought. "Run!" He shouted.

They started running.

"I didn't see anything." Officer Roy stepped into his car and drove off.

The gangsters got the signal and started running after them.

'Damn, they're running!' The leader took out his gun.

Bang!!

The leader was a good shot. And He aimed at the man but the woman they wanted to take with them, shielded him and took the bullet.

The leader smiled cruelly as he saw her stumbling.

'It doesn't matter if she was hurt, Boss said to bring her with us at any cost. He didn't mention dead or alive.' He remarked cruelly.

Hearing the gun fire, the baby suddenly woke up and started crying.

Damn! He didn't know how to take care of a child!

The girl from behind took the child before he could say anything.

His child stopped crying as soon as he went to her embrace. He felt at peace.

"Take my sister." She calmly said though she was breathing hard.

He was amazed by the her calmness in this type of situation.

He looked at his wife and got annoyed.

'Annoying woman, this isn't time to get faint!'

Though he was annoyed, this girl was here, so he couldn't possibly show his irritation in front of her.

He took his wife carefully and they both started to run.
