Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Lu Tian stares at his wife's smiling face and his entire being softened. Her smile was always pure and genuine like she can take away all the bad feelings in life.

He is glad that she is fine, and no harm came to her or their child.

Stopping in front of her, he could feel that uneasy weight lifted from his shoulders. Without a care about whether anyone is looking, his right hand gently caress her cheek.

"I'm glad nothing happened to the both of you."

Feeling the coldness of his palm touch her skin, it sent a faint electric shock to Yue Ling's heart. However, she does not move away from him, but tilt her head to feel his hand more.

Her bluish green eyes met his for a brief second before slowly closing them. Her left-hand place over his and she sighs a smile.

"We're also glad nothing happened to you."

Lu Tian stares down at her before his left-hand wraps around her waist and pulls her into his embrace.

Watching the two people feeding dog food to everyone, Uncle Zhi and Lian Ni Shang glance at each other. Both their cheeks flush a shade of red as they thought about the same thing.

Give the couple some space.

Lian Ni Shang walks away like she did not see anything. After that uneasy event, she also wants to find her Shan Sinan.

At the same time, Uncle Zhi also walks away. Seeing young people in love, he can't help but want to find a woman to love him too. Maybe it's time he settles down and start his own family.

Oblivious to her two subordinates' thoughts, Yue Ling chuckles within the man's arms.

"Tian, we're really alright now."

Lu Tian did not loosen his hold on her. Instead he hugs her tighter as if kneading her into one with him. He knows that she and their child is safe, but the thought of anything happening to them still haunts his mind.

Back there, if things had gone wrong, he will never forgive himself for being unable to protect them. He will never forgive himself for breaking his promise to their little one.

However, hearing her words full of reassuring, he held her tighter before reluctantly pulling away.

Even if he wanted to keep holding her in his arms, they still have to take care of the situation here.

Thinking this, he decided that once this is over, he will hold her in his arms when they return home. He will not let her out of his sight for one second. Even if she has to use the restroom, he will stand by the door and wait for her.

Feeling happy with this decision, he looks down at her.

"How's the situation in the front?"

Hearing his sudden question, Yue Ling arch a brow. For a someone who is quite possessive, he sure knows how to change the topic. However, not pushing it, she answers him.

"Liu Shan said they have the front under control. Once he finishes explaining the situation to the police, they will join us here."

Lu Tian nod his head in understanding with a faint 'mm'. Remembering something, he couldn't help but ask.

"You know the Chief?"

The sudden question took Yue Ling by surprise. Did Lu Tian by chance heard her and Zhi Yilan's conversation?

She was hesitant in whether to answer him or lie, but quickly making up her mind, she decides to tell him.

"We've worked a few cases together in the past."

Hearing her answer, Lu Tian nod his head. However, he ponder in thought to himself. She is from Fate, so why would the Chief ask someone from the underworld to help with some cases? Also, how come he has never heard about this?

Knowing what he is thinking about, she part her lips to explain in further detail, but her eyes caught sight of something.

"Ah, its Liu Shan and them!"

The rest of the two teams walks out from Uncle Zhi shop with their own weapon in hand. They looked like soldiers who were returning home after a long battle with the enemy.

"Boss!"

"Boss!!!"

Lin Hui and Xu Long exclaimed when they saw Yue Ling and Lu Tian. Of course, Xu Long made sure his voice was louder so his boss can see that he is more worried.

Both men grinned widely as they walk over to the two people. However, seeing the same pace of each other matching to one another, Lin Hui increased his speed as Xu Long did the same.

A glint of light flash in their eyes and their speed walking quickly turns into a race.

A race to see who could reach their boss first.

Lin Hui stretch his right arm and tries to push Xu Long away, "You're going down loser!"

Xu Long stretch his left arm and pushes Lin Hui's head, "No! You're going down loser!"

Both men ran with their might, but neither forgot to try and slow the other person down.

In the midst of their struggling race, a figure dashes pass them with a wide grin. Both his arms raise high and waves bye to them as he makes his way to his boss.

"Hahahah! Bye losers!!"

Lin Hui and Xu Long's eyes widen in shock. Both men picks up their pace and chase after the person. Their mouths open and at the same time yells out.

"Liu Shan! You cheater!!"

Yue Ling: "…"

Lu Tian: "…"

Neither Yue Ling nor Lu Tian could comprehend with what they were seeing. One second ago, the three men looked like brave warriors and now, they looked like grade schoolboys betting to see who can run faster.

Lu Tian was dumbfounded seeing his assistant act so childish but seeing how the other two didn't belong to his team, he felt a little better. Glancing at his wife, he jokingly spoke.

"Your subordinates are very interesting."

Hearing his words, Yue Ling puff her cheeks like a chipmunk in embarrassment. Casting him a side glare, she knows that he is making fun of her subordinates.

She has to admit, her team is a little unusual, but is his any different?

Looking back at the three men running towards them, she couldn't help but smile faintly. If they were not this way, her life wouldn't filled with heartwarming laughter.

Seeing their face full of seriousness like this race meant the world to them, she smiles more. Not only were they serious, but also trying to stop the other person from winning.

Thinking about how childish they are, she laughs as she watches them.

"Indeed they are out of this world."

Hearing her laugh, the corners of Lu Tian's lip curls up and he chuckles along with her.

Yue Ling's angelic laugh quickly caught everyone's attention. A smile curl on their faces as they listen to her laugh. It was like music to one's ear. So soft and…

However, as quickly as that soul softening moment came, everyone from Wolf Team was struck speechless when Lu Tian's chuckle came after.

"…"

"In the name of Xu Long, STOP!!"

Hearing Lu Tian's sudden laugh, Xu Long who was immersed in his life or death race came to an abrupt halt.

His right hand did not forget to reach out and grab the back of Liu Shan's coat as his left hand stretch out to stop Lin Hui from further advancing.

Liu Shan had eyes sparking with fireworks when he knew he was going to win the race. However, Xu Long's sudden move jerked him so hard that his back hits the man and they both stumbles to the hard ground.

At the same time, Lin Hui who did not expect Xu Long to stick his arm out was caught by surprise. His free like the wind expression flash in pure horror. Unable to stop himself in time, his nose slams right into the man's arm and he falls backward.

"Ugh!"

Both men groan at the sudden pain done to their body. Liu Shan held his neck while Lin Hui held his nose.

"Fucken Xu Long you bastard!"

Lin Hui groans his words with a face in pain. Next to him, Liu Shan stumbles to sit up.

"You want to die?!!"

Ignoring their aching pain, both men glares at Xu Long wanting to strangle the man. Neither of them couldn't understand why the idiotic assistant would suddenly stop them.

He nearly killed them!!

Xu Long was now laying on the ground and staring at the night sky. Ignoring Liu Shan and Lin Hui's murderous words, he abruptly sat up and slowly lift his hand to point ahead.

Seeing this, Lin Hui's eyes turned heavy. He follows the man's finger and furrow his brows.

"Your boss? Your boss is the reason why you were about to kill us?!"

Xu Long does not answer with words, but slowly nod his head. Seeing the nod, Liu Shan also looks at Lu Tian. However, his eyes blinked in confusion.

"What about him?"

Xu Long stares in a long daze as he struggles a gulp. "H-He laughed…"

Liu Shan: "…" Really?

Lin Hui: "…" That's it?
