Chapter 223 Who is your boss? (1/2)
Following the old man, the four figures enter an elevator. Once the door slide closed, an uproar escapes inside the first floor of the building.
A group of women whispered and giggle to each other as the loud music played inside.
”Did you see Li Wei? I can't take my eyes off of him at all.”
”Even the man that came with Li Wei was perfectionism.”
While the first floor was in a commotion, at the highest floor to the building, the elevator slowly sped up.
Inside the elevator, no one spoke a word. Lu Tian stare at the door and thought about Li Wei's words again.
When he first took over Lu Corps, he was only 18. During that time he had trained along side Grandfather Ji's army to strengthen his training when it came to taking down the underworld.
One of those days in his youth, he had gone to visit Grandfather Ji to train and upon his arrival, he met an older man.He had thought the man was just an ordinary friend of grandfather Ji's, but he soon realized the man was skilled in martial arts.
After a day's training with grandfather Ji and the man, it wasn't until the man left did he find out that, that ordinary man was none other the legendary leader of Fate.
However, he never saw the man again. No location or whether the man was still alive. It was as if the man never existed. Yet, every now and then, he would get reports about Fate, but he could never dig any deeper. If he wanted to, he could, but that would be disrespectful to an elder he respects.
*ding*
The sudden sound of the elevator brings Lu Tian out of his thoughts. He stare ahead as the door slide opens and old man holding a cane gesture with one hand towards what was now a dimly lit hallway.
”This way please.”
It didn't take long before they were brought to a bright red double door. The old man knocked on the door and it was quickly, but slowly opened from the inside.
”Please go in.”
Lu Tian nod his head in politeness and stride forward with both Li Wei and Xu Long following behind.
As they enter the room, members of Black Dragon stood in every corner of the room. All heads turn in the direction of the new guests.
”Mr. Lu, Mr. Li please have a seat.”
In the center of the room sat a middle aged man. He wore a black pin stripe suit with a cigar in one hand. Behind his right was a woman with her long hair tied in a high pony tail and to his left was a young man in casual clothes.
”Mr. Chu.”
Lu Tian's expression did not waiver as he sits down on an empty that was across from the man. He stare directly at the man seated in his chair. Being the person the government sends to do the dirty jobs, he's encounter people far worse than this man.
The middle age man sized Lu Tian's every move. He nod his head and smiles. He knows that Lu Tian is a very powerful man in China, the only reason why he hasn't been put behind bars is because he's never done anything that crosses the line.
”To what do I owe Mr. Lu the pleasure?”
Lu Tian crossed his leg into a four figure and his dark eyes remained cold and indifferent. He scanned the room and not seeing the person, the corner of his arc into half smile.
”Chu Li Xiang.”
Hearing the name, the middle aged man felt as if a melted iceberg had been pour on him. He gulped and frown.
”What does Mr. Lu need my younger brother for?”
