Chapter 498 ends here (2/2)
Confused, he glance at the dash screen and he swore his heart stopped in that moment.
Quickly changing lanes, he makes a sharp turn at a red light that cause a loud screeching sound. Before the car could fully turn into a straight line, he was already stepping on the accelerator more.
”WAOH! Bro, are you trying to get us killed?”
Xu Long screamed for his life at the sudden move. He held tightly onto the seatbelt for dear life.
Glancing at the dash screen, he pout his lip. Didn't the screen say his lady boss was calling?
Confused, he looks at the driver with furrow brows.
”Why did our lady boss send a map?”
Liu Shan does not look at the man but kept his eyes on the road. He would often glance at the map to make sure he is going in the right direction.
”She's being followed.”
As Xu Long's eyes widen to the max at what he was hearing, in another part of Imperial, the exhaust of two motorcycles sounds loudly through the streets.
Keeping a steady and same pace, Qi Li rode his new black and green Ninja H2, while the Lin Hui rode his new glossy black Ninja 14r.
*Ring ring
At the same time, their phones that were placed on a holder sounds to make them to glance down.
Seeing the name of the person calling, in the same motion their index finger swipes answers the call. Both men still kept their eyes on the road. However, expecting to hear a voice, the other line was quiet.
Glancing down, both men's eyes slightly narrow when they saw a map appear on their phone screen.
Lin Hui slightly turn his head to look at Qi Li as the man the same to him.
Both men gesture a quick nod before twisting the throttle to their motorcycle more.
The sound of their motorcycle exhausts resonate louder than it already is like they were racing.
However, midway through, Lin Hui makes a turn for the left street as Qi Li to the right. Each person going their own direction.
As each of Yue Ling's subordinates receive her call, inside the tall and dark building of Lu Corps, Lu Tian is currently in a meeting with his board of directors.
The aloof businessman sat in the main seat as he scans through a piece of document in his hand.
”CEO Lu, why did you suddenly stop the business with Industrial Group?”
An middle-aged man nervously asks. It was when he came in for work that he had only been notified about the termination between Lu Corps and Industrial Group.
There wasn't even a meeting as Lu Tian made the decision on his own without discussing such important matters with them.
Hearing the question, Lu Tian's dark eyes glance to the man. It was a small move, but that small move caused the middle-aged to feel sweat slide down his spine.
”Are you questioning my decisions?”
He force a chuckle and tries to calm himself as he knows how Lu Tian is.
”No, no. Don't misunderstand my intentions. A meeting did not take place for the sudden termination.”
He was curious and confused since Lu Tian already terminated the contract with TB Corps. However, never did he think the young man would also do the same with Industrial Group.
TB Corps is a big shipping corporation that they work with whereas Industrial Group handles all the smaller business they have in Imperial.
How can Lu Tian make such a big decision without informing them?
*Ring ring
Suddenly, the sound of a phone rings inside the conference room that interrupts the meeting.
Everyone glance at one another to see who forgot to shut their phone off. However, to their surprise, it was none other than Lu Tian's phone.
He ignores the dumbfounded stares from his board of directors and reach for his phone set in front of him.
Seeing the name of the caller, he did not hesitate to answer the call.
However, the moment he accepted the call, instead of the voice he loves to hear, it was the same image of a map like the one sent to Liu Shan and the others.
His brows slightly furrow until he saw a moving red dot on the map.
In that moment, his heart dropped to his stomach, but he was able to maintain his composure. He abruptly stood up causing the chair to make a loud screech.
”The meeting ends here. We will continue this tomorrow.”
His words fell as he was already striding out of the room, leaving those left behind bewildered.
