Chapter 789 - Your hair (1/2)
Unlike the doting and relaxed temperament he had when he was in front of his wife, Lu Tian's voice echoed into the sky like the rumbling of thunder.
All the noises around quickly cease, and all heads turned to look in his direction. When everyone saw Lu Tian's respectable figure, no one hesitated to stop what they were going and gather in a neat formation as ordered.
”Boss!”
Their voices raised together like soldiers in training.
Lu Tian stares down at each person with his hands held behind his back. Seeing that all twenty-two heads, plus Xu Long was accounted for, he was impressed they everyone was here.
However, seeing something to the right of him, he arches an eyebrow.
There were seven men. They had familiar faces but not part of his team.
”Boss, let me explain.”
Seeing the expression on Lu Tian's face, Xu Long misunderstood, thinking his boss is angry. He breaks formation by taking a big step forward and explains.
”Liu Shan and Lin Hui were with me when you called. I thought a few more hands wouldn't hurt, so I dragged them along.”
His spine straightens with a good posture. He was no longer the clumsy assistant he usually is, but a subordinate carrying out his duty.
”I am willing to take full responsibility for this.”
When he received the call about what was happening, he first picked up his boss's car at the restaurant and then came to the house.
He didn't think it would cause trouble as Liu Shan and Lin Hui are his lady boss's subordinates. Also, he had planned to tell them to go home afterward.
When they saw Wolf Team at the house waiting and learned why this sudden gathering, they offered to stay and help.
Lu Tian stares in silence at his assistant. His eyes then shift to Liu Shan and Lin Hui. However, his eyes didn't stay on them for long as he looks behind the two men.
There were still the other five men.
Although their distance from one another was far, Liu Shan takes a step forward when he saw where Lu Tian's line of sight had been directed.
”I called them.”
His posture was straight as he broke formation with Xu Long. He stares straight into Lu Tian's cold and indifferent eyes without batting an eye or showing any fear.
”The reason you assembled your men here is for the safety of our boss. We are her subordinates and the ones who have worked alongside her for many years. It's only a given that we are here too because we are of use.”
Lu Tian listens without interrupting his wife's assistant. Seeing how Liu Shan made a good point, he nods his head lightly.
He looks away from Liu Shan to Lin Hui, then at Qi Li, Gui Tian Lan, Gui Zhongmin, Tang Zhonghui, and Shan Sinan.
It is precisely like Liu Shan had said. These seven men have been through heaven and earth with his wife. Compare to Wolf Team, they know how his wife is like when facing danger.
However, noticing something, his brows wrinkle together.
Like his men, they were also shirtless except for Qi Li.
The young man (Qi Li) was as cold and indifferent as usual. Unlike the other men, he kept his turtleneck on.
Lu Tian's frown deepens with a purse of his lip. He didn't do this because of Qi Li but because he suddenly realized how built and toned his wife's subordinates are. If he didn't know, he would have thought they were apart of Wolf Team or had gone under the same strict training.
