Chapter 86 - The Four

Meanwhile, Linfeng had just come from a meeting with his new team assigned for investigation. SC was expanding and he had a lot of work to do.

He temporarily forgot the last incident with Xiong Zhi as he has to attend school in the morning and work in the evening.

He was on his way home when his phone rang.

"Linfeng? Are you sure about investigating Gao Huan?" Jin Shin's frantic voice sounded from the phone.

"I am. You don't have to worry that it will implicate SC. I made a team for myself. It is private."

"I'm not worried you will implicate SC. SC was made by you. You can do whatever you want with it. I'm worried you can't take on the Guans. They might found about you."

"Then what? Can they put me into prison? Or report me to Mr. Xiong? Don't worry. Even they found out about me they could not do anything about it except targeting my company. I'm thinking it out." Linfeng seriously said. He knew that Jin Shin was worried.

Jin Shin finally conceded. He knew how stubborn Linfeng is. He had no chance to stop him. All he could do right now was help him.

"Fine. Do what you want. But, if things went wrong ask help from me. Don't bother about me. Just use SC."

Linfeng looked outside the window.

"I get it. Thanks, Jin Shin." Linfeng ended the call.

He stared at the street lights that his car passed by.

He had no power for now. But that doesn't mean he had no way to know what Guan Gao Huan up to.

In actuality, there's no need for them to face off or investigate each other. They should just be a passer-by in each other's life. Meeting once or twice but never bothering one another.

That's what he thought. But the image of Xiong Zhi's scared look bothered him.

What's their relationship?

What Gao Huan did to his Young Miss?

Linfeng thought about it. Since he doesn't have answers now, he would take precautions. He needed to watch every step Gao Huan will make. Especially to matters like his Young Miss.

He doesn't want to repeat that day again.

He would make sure Xiong Zhi and Guan Gao Huan to be not in the same place. If they have to meet each other, he will be there. With the thought that he would be with her side, he was at ease.

'At ease?'

Linfeng wondering mind stopped for a moment and went to a different track.

'Am I worried?'

Of course, he would be worried. He was his Young Miss. It was natural.

It was also natural that he was doing this to protect her. He was her aide.

'Nothing more.'

Linfeng's car speeds up more as he ordered his driver to be faster so he could take a rest.

Days passed and the three-man team became the famous group in junior's building.

The Lu and Xiong, both legendary families were sitting together in one table. The atmosphere was unexpectedly peaceful making the first-timers who saw this group gawk in astonishment.

The two families were not arch enemies. Nor their relationship was good to make them seat peacefully in one table.

Excluding Song Xuantin who was the only one chattering in the table, the two heirs who had both gorgeous look and noble air made the onlookers watch their exchange more. Even they were just eating silently and asking questions from time to time.

"Zhi, what do you like apple or gr.a.p.es?"

"Apple."

Lu Yin Ze handed the apple shake to Xiong Zhi.

Then they began to eat quietly.

Song Xuantin who got used to this exchange grabbed the gr.a.p.e shake leaving Lu Yin Ze's hand that was about to reach for the shake.

She sipped from it and savor the sweet taste of the shake.

'As expected from the number one chef!'

"That's mine." Lu Yin Ze's voice erupted Song Xuantin's bliss.

"Ah? I thought it is for me and Zhi. Sorry." She handed the gr.a.p.e shake to Lu Yin Ze.

Lu Yin Ze knitted his brows and stared at the straw that Song Xuantin sipped on.

'What a waste.'

"Never mind. It's yours." Lu Yin Ze heavily sighed. What could he do? This girl has really thick skin.

"Oh really? You're so kind! Thank you!" Without a second thought, she grabbed the shake again and taste its bliss.

The three continued their lavish lunch.

The group went back to their room as the bell rang and continued the class.

World History Class

"Midterm is coming. This time will be different. I want you to group yourself into four and come up with a skit. The theme is: Conquering A Country. You will have two weeks to practice. Our venue will be in Building D, 3rd floor at Venus Stage. "

The students erupted with a murmur. They were clearly excited. It was a time for them to show off their wealth in this skit.

"I'll give you the rest of the class to choose your teammates. You may start." As the history professor gave his command. The students stand up and ran to the back. Specifically, to Xiong Zhi's group.

"May I join you guys?" The first student who was at their front turned to them.

"Can I join? I'm good at acting!" Another student said.

"I'm more than good! I received an award as the best actor in middle school!" Another student who just catches up came to their desk.

"Choose me! I'm good at acting and my uncle is the director of the year!"

"No! Choose me! I can learn acting but the good thing is I know a group who is very good at props!"

"No! Choose me! I'm the third wealthier in the class! "

The three were stunned by the sudden attention.

All the students were clamoring to them asking for their approval to join them.

"Mhmm. Zhi, I left the decision to you." Song Xuantin washed her hands on this.

Xiong Zhi looked sideways at Song Xuantin. She stayed silent then looked at Lu Yin Ze.

Lu Yin Ze silver eyes showed hesitation. He did not know anyone aside from these two girls beside him.

An additional shadow loomed over them.

"May I seat?"

The three looked over. It was Gu Zhen.

Gu Zhen did not wait for their response. He took a seat beside Song Xuantin. He opened his laptop and start typing.

"I will be responsible for graphic props."

Gu Zhen said without lifting his head.

Everyone became silent.

"A- I guess we have a new member. W-welcome to the club!" Song Xuantin breaks out from her daze by instinct and her mouth moved so quickly that she even stuttered.

The two remaining members just looked at her.

To escape the inquiring silver eyes and the judging black-orb eyes, Song Xuantin grabbed her notebook and started taking notes.

No one knows what is it for.

But surely the three-man team turned into a four-man team.

Who would be later known as the LuXiong Group.
