Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Sitting on the floor in the middle of Uncle Zhi's shop, Yue Ling and Lian Ni Shang watched the situation outside. The look on their face was one of seriousness, but something they couldn't help but be giggle or be dumbfounded at what they were seeing.

It was like both women were at having a girl's sleepover and watching a live action movie.

"Young Miss, everything is ready."

From behind, Uncle Zhi's voice interrupts the two women as he walks out from the secret room. He had left to the other building to retrieve some things. However, when he returned, he did not expect to see a scene like this.

Hearing his words, Lian Ni Shang furrow her brows. Thinking about what they have to do, she looks at Yue Ling.

"Boss let me do it. What if something goes wrong?"

Uncle Zhi sarcastically scoffs and walks over to Yue Ling and Lian Ni Shang.

"No, allow me. So long as I keep my head down and wear a wig, that idiot will never know."

He lowers to one knee at Yue Ling's side like a knight and points to his himself.

"I am already old and lived my life. If anything goes wrong, my life will not matter to anyone."

Hearing their words of worry for her, Yue Ling felt very bless to have amazing and caring people around her. Although their personalities are out of this world, she is grateful to call them family.

She turn to look at Uncle Zhi and gives him a smile.

"Your life matters to me."

She then turns to look at Lian Ni Shang and chuckles.

"And so does yours. So never belittle yourself."

Her head lowers and she looks down at the tablet in her hand.

"Gongi already knows how I look like. If he were to see that we tricked him, who knows what he will do. So, for that, I cannot let either of you do it."

Left with no room to say anymore or try to convince her, both Lian Ni Shang and Uncle Zhi could only sigh inside.

Yue Ling is too good of a person. Even when her life is on the line, she will not let others take the bullet for her.

The both of them know that if she was not pregnant, she would have been outside helping instead of staying inside like now.

Oblivious to their thoughts, Yue Ling stares at an image on the tablet. It shows Gongi and three men stepping out of the black car.

Her eyes slightly narrow and dangerous smile curl on her lip.

"Our honorable guest has finally move."

When Lian Ni Shang and Uncle Zhi saw her smile, all the hair on their body stood on ends. That smile of hers is enough to make anyone's heart flutter, but they of all people know better than anyone knows what it meant.

Demise.

Yue Ling hands the tablet to Uncle Zhi as Lian Ni Shang helps her stand up from the floor.

*Click

Just as she stood on her feet, the wooden door that remained shut was slowly being open. All three people turn to look at the person entering.

Lu Tian held the door open with one hand as his other hand drags Man 1 inside. Instead of gently laying the body down, he toss the body like it was a bag of trash being thrown away.

Closing the door, he looked like he didn't brought in a dead body, and takes a step forward. However, he was met with three pairs of eyes staring at him.

"…"

He arch a brow as he did not understand why they were staring at him like he was a stranger. He looks down at Man 1 then back to the three people.

His brows furrow and he look at his hands. It was then that he realized that there were blood stains from the people he had killed.

Not thinking much, he reach inside his pocket and takes out a handkerchief.

By now, he would have gone straight to check on his wife, but he needed to clean any blood stains that might have gotten on him.

"Here, use this."

Yue Ling's voice sounds as she did not hesitate to walk over to the tall man. She hands him a wet wipe for easier use.

Glancing at her sudden appearance in front of him, Lu Tian sighs inside. He looks at the wet wipe then to her eyes.

"I reek of blood. It's not healthy for you and our child."

Knowing that he spoke his words out of worry, Yue Ling didn't care and takes a step closer to him. She chuckles a smile and takes his hand.

"You're over exaggerating."

She wipes away the blood and looks up at him. Her smile widens as it reaches her eyes.

"See, baby and I are fine."

Feeling her warm hands on his hand, Lu Tian faintly smile and allows her to clean the blood away. Even if he were to tell her no, she wouldn't listen to him.

Uncle Zhi and Lian Ni Shang stares at the couple's interaction with a face of awe. If only they were not dealing with the enemy at this time.

Thinking this, Uncle Zhi heaves a sigh and lightly nudge Lian Ni Shang with his elbow.

"Let's go get the things."

Lian Ni Shang nod her head and turns away from the couple. She follows after the middle-aged man and couldn't help but think about her beloved. Is he freezing outside? Is he hurt anywhere?

Her man is not sociable and looks very weak. Most of the time, he is clumsy and has many scars from their past missions. So, whenever they are apart, she can only worry about him.

As they prepare for the final plan, outside on the rooftop of another building, a man laid on his stomach near the edge.

"One. Alley."

His facial features were very feminine compare to most men. If it was not for his manly voice, one would have mistaken him for a woman.

He held a sniper gun close to him with one eye closed as his other eye stares into the scope. Focusing on the dark alley below, there was no one in sight, but he still pulled the trigger.

*Pu!

Down below, a man wearing a mask was about to make a run for the rundown building. However, before he could move a step into the light, he was already greeted by the feminine looking man's bullet.

"Wow! Sinan, you have good eyes."

From the side, a man's voice sounds in praise of the textile designer.

"Really, I didn't even see that man. If you didn't shoot him, he would have gotten inside."

Another man's voice sounds from the other side in more words of praising.

Confirming the situation below is clear of any enemy, Shan Sinan moves away from the scope. He looks at the two men and shrug his shoulder with a nonchalant look.

"…"

Huan Min, the one who spoke first was sitting up on the right side of Shan Sinan. He has sharp features and an anchor beard. However, he was flabbergasted by the man's response.

He glance over to his brother on the other side like he was asking a question.

On the left side of Shan Sinan is another man name Weilong. The top half of his long hair is tied into a bun as the bottom half flows with the passing wind of the night.

He was also laying on his stomach, but when he saw Huan Min's silent question, he shrugs his shoulder in response.

Both men couldn't help but look back at their new comrade.

When Lu Tian introduced Shan Sinan to them, the man's pretty face took them by surprise. Not only his looks but with the way his appearance looked. They even thought his shooting skills would be so-so.

However, as they had been taking down the enemy from above, the man Shan Sinan just killed was one that neither of them saw. He had been hiding so well in the dark and yet, Shan Sinan was able to detect him.

Now their curiosity has risen. If Shan Sinan is this skilled, then how skilled are the people by their lady boss's side?

"Target has reached the corner."

Shan Sinan's voice spoke as he paid no attention to the other two men. He wasn't only talking to them, but also into the earpiece for everyone to hear.

At his sudden words, Huan Min and Weilong came back to their senses. Both men sees that Shan Sinan was looking into the scope of his gun again. However, the tip of his sniper is moving in a slow pace like it was following something below.

Doing the same, both men looks through their scopes.

Down below, Gongi and his three men had already turned at the corner and were now walking on the main street. Due to them not knowing the real situation, the look on their face was full of confidence like everything was going according to their plan.

As they made their way towards Uncle Zhi's shop, no one made a move. All was silence before everyone's earpiece sounds a connection and a deep voice sound.

["Everyone on standby."]
