Chapter 640 I have to leave (2/2)

Lu Tian listens without uttering a sound. It was no wonder Xu Long was having difficulty tracking these three men. It appears they have a highly skilled hacker on their side.

[”Their last location was near Lu Corps. However, due to my hacking into City Z's database, Chief Kim had alerted them, this causing them to be unable to meet their source. It seems like they've gone back to their hideout.”]

Hearing this, Lu Tian glance down at the empty bowl he had set down. He was hoping to spend a little more time with his wife, but…

”Location.”

[”I just forward it to you.”]

Xu Long quickly replies from the other line as Lu Tian doesn't say anymore and ends the call. He doesn't put his phone away but glance down at it and opens the message.

A map appears with a pinpoint of the location the assistant had mentioned.

Lu Tian arch a brow, but he wasn't surprised to see where the location was. He is curious as the location was in the underworld, but in a secluded area that had long been abandoned.

Out of all the places in location, why would they choose that place?

”Tian?”

From the door, Yue Ling's voice sounds as she enters the room. Even though it was her own office, she didn't forget to knock like she was entering someone else's room.

Lu Tian turns his head to look at her and he puts his phone in his pocket. He did it in a very casual way so that she wouldn't find it suspicious at all.

”I finished the food. Thank you.”

He informs her like a child who had ate all the food on his plate including the vegetables he didn't like.

Yue Ling was baffled by his childlike figure, but she shakes the thought away and walks over to him.

”Sorry for leaving you alone for so long. There was some things I had to discuss with Liu Shan. Are you heading back to work?”

Being reminded of work, Lu Tian sighs inside. It wasn't only work that he has to finish, but also the overseeing of Chief Kim's men. He could wait on meeting the men, but if he were to wait it out, they might catch on that he is catching up to them and move to a different location.

Thinking this, he nods his head to answer his wife and reach a hand to grab her hand.

”I have to leave, but I'll see you at home.”

His eyes locks with her bluish green eyes and his entire being couldn't help but soften to the max.

”I'll be home late, so don't wait up for me. Okay?”

He raise her hand to his lip and place a gentle kiss on the back of her hand. He doesn't let go, but lean closer to her and also kiss her forehead.

As he puts on his coat that was dried by now, he leaves the room.

Yue Ling doesn't stop him from leaving as she knows he has work to finish. However, she felt something was bothering the man.

She had wanted to ask when she saw him put his phone away. He looked so focus and serious, but she decided not to be a nuisance to him. If he wanted her to know, he would have told her about it.
