Lu Tian sped through the heavy pouring rain and the slippery roads to get back to the underground parking lot. He drifts around the corners like he was a racecar driver.

Waiting for his return like four concubines who had to see their husband enter the battlefield, Xu Long, Jiangyu, Yiqing and Huan Min were worried sick about the man.

When they heard the loud screeching sound of tires on wet ground, all four men quickly discard their dresses and skirts. Each person couldn"t help but sigh in relief at the sight of Jiangyu"s familiar car.

"Boss! You"re alive and in one piece!"

Lu Tian had only taken a step out from the car when he felt a sudden wave of deja-vu rush inside him.

He kept his composure and close the door to the car. Walking over to his subordinates, he didn"t need to try and find who had spoken those overexaggerating words as there was only person out of the four men who would.

"Xu Long."

Hearing his name first to be called, Xu Long"s eyes lit up with fireworks sparking in the background. He takes a big step forward and straighten his arms at his side along with his spine.

"Xu Long at your disposal."

Standing in an almost straight line behind the a.s.sistant, Jiangyu, Yiqing and Huan Min snorts with womanly att.i.tudes as they rolled their eyes.

Each individual had put on their skirts and dresses again and looked like jealous concubines whose name was not called on to spend the night with their Emperor.

Not concerned about what is bothering his subordinates, Lu Tian hands the key to Jiangyu as he takes back the keys to his wife"s car from Xu Long.

"Wolf Team will be cooperating with Chief Kim"s men. Xu Long will meet with them in person to discuss any intel both teams have found."

Xu Long and the other three men were incredulous by the man"s sudden words. They had been worried sick about the man"s safety. Even the thought of going against his order was in discussion.

Yet, while they were troubled over the thought that Lu Tian might come across any kind of danger, he was actually discussing plans with the other team like he was in a business meeting.

"Boss, I heard you wrong. You said "I" will go meet them. As in I, alone?"

Lu Tian was about to turn for the white car when he heard his a.s.sistant. He looks back at the man, then to the other three before looking back at Xu Long. Thinking about something, his words fell again before entering the car.

"If you do your job correctly, I"ll give you the penthouse at Jade Condos."

He doesn"t say anymore and enters the while Maserati Granturismo.

"That"s all. Everyone go home and get some rest."

The four subordinates were left in utter disbelief. Their eyes remain in the direction Lu Tian had driven off. Even when the car was no longer in view, each person had not come back from their daze.

Who are they? Where are they? What happened to their ruthless boss? When has the man, who shows no mercy to his enemies and over works them suddenly cares about whether they get any rest?

"I don"t get it…"

Like always, Xu Long was the first to return to his senses and breaks the silence. He scratch the back of his head as his other hand curl into a fist at his hip.

"What kind of order was that and why is he in such a rush?"

As the a.s.sistant spoke his thoughts aloud, being the second to come out from his daze, Jiangyu tilt his head and looks at the a.s.sistant. He held a blank expression and sighs.

"Well, I"m just as clueless as you are, but to answer your second question, when you have someone waiting at home for you, it"s only natural to want to go home."

Yiqing was the third to regain his consciousness. He nods his head in agreement to the bulky man. He is married and loves his wife dearly. Like any man with a heart, he can"t wait to go home to her.

As he thought this, he glance at Xu Long and pat the man on the back.

"Of course, it"s hard for you to understand because you are still single."

Xu Long"s eyes glare sideways at Yiqing with a contemptuous expression. His cheeks gradually puffs out like a puffer fish as steams blew out from his ears like a running train.

He stomps one foot on the ground and place both his fists on his hips. He turns to face the man and wanted to retaliate that he isn"t the only one single here. However, being face to face with the three men, he could only sob without any tears to shed.

Jiangyu has a girlfriend, Huan Min is engaged while Yiqing is married. He is the only one here who doesn"t have a girlfriend, fiancé, or wife.

It was like a slap in the face for someone single and lonely like him.

Taking another look at the three men, he sobs again and covers his mouth. Times like this, he really wish his new family were here with him.

"You all have no shame at all."

He lowers his hand and glares with teary eyes at each person. Seeing that they were not bothered by his words, he takes a deep breath and stuck his chest out.

"So what if I am single."

His entire being changes from a little boy who had been bullied to a grown man with mad confidence.

"All I need, is me, myself, and I."

His right hand brush his left shoulder, then his left hand brush his right shoulder. He snorts at them one last time before turning away.

"No one can tie, I, James Long Bond, down."

Jiangyu, Yiqing and Huan Min were rendered speechless by the a.s.sistant. Ever since they met the man again, he has been self-proclaiming himself as James Long Bond. However, the real question now is, how did them having a girlfriend, fiancé, and wife suddenly categorize them as shameless men?

Xu Long strides to the car and stops at the door for the driver side. He reach into his pocket and gets his keys as he didn"t want to spend another second with these three men.

However, his brows furrow together. Why are his pockets empty?

Where are his keys?

Like he had suddenly been struck by lightning, he swallows a hard gulp and turns to look at the people behind him.

How could he forget that he didn"t drive here, but had carpool with one of them? To make things even worse, he even called his ride home a man with no shame.

Thinking this, his gaze land on the tall and bulky man as he force a crooked smile.

"Heh heh."

He clasp both his palms together like he was inside a temple and paying his respect to Buddha.

"Jiangyu ah… Mr. Muscle, oh Mr. Honorable Muscles with such great looks, can I get a ride home?"

He made sure to give the bulky man some puppy eyes and acts like their previous conversation never happened. However, deep inside, he was sweating like crazy and praying that Buddha be with him to guide him home safely.
