Chapter 792 - Dont look at me (1/2)

Lu Tian stares across the table at the man laughing sarcastically. He held a blank expression with no traces of emotion. However, the look on his face was enough to tell someone to stop beating around the bush.

And that is precisely what Lin Hui does.

”Alright, alright.”

Lin Hui cease his laugh and stuck his palms out like he was trying to calm down a crazy crowd. He knows that Lu Tian isn't one to joke around with.

”I'm not laughing at the proposal for the house, nor do I find it funny.”

He looks down at the blueprints scattered over the foldable table. Pointing to each place that is being currently worked on, his words continue.

”Escape doors, traps, hidden passages, safe rooms, weapon vaults, everything you can think of, it's all here.”

His lip purse at his last word, and he crosses his arms over his chest.

”With this tight security on the premises, one would definitely feel safe, and anyone who tries to enter will be stupid for stepping into their death.”

Lu Tian's expression turns into a silent frown while Jiangyu stares with a distraught expression at Lin Hui. He (Jiangyu) suddenly felt the urge to punch Lin Hui because the man was still beating around the bush.

However, not wanting to get n his lady boss's wrong side, he inhales a deep breath to calm his itchy hands.

”Okay, and your point is?”

Lin Hui rolled his eyes at the bulky man. He unfolds his left arm and points to the house without turning around to look.

”My point is, even with all this security, do you really think my boss will use it? Like seriously, if you were to place a latter in front of her to climb down the window, I'm quite sure she will choose to jump.”

His words fell, and he suddenly thought about something that happened in the past. He snorts a laugh as he tries not to laugh aloud.

Glancing at Lu Tian and Jiangyu, he sees that the two men looked at him like an idiot for laughing out of nowhere. He clears his throat and lowers his left arm to join with his right arm that is still crossed over his chest.

”Don't look at me like I'm crazy.”

He takes a small step closer and grins at the two men across from him.

”This one time, an arrogant teenager snuck inside Fate. His intentions were to steal anything valuable, but he was caught by my boss on the third floor. Afraid of being thrown in jail, he bolted down the stairs thinking he could outrun her since he was younger. However, little did he know, she didn't chase after but jumped down from the window. The moment he exited the way he entered, she was already standing outside.”

Remembering the past occurrence, Lin Hui couldn't help but laugh with a slight shake to his head.

”Even to this day, that boy still shivers when he thinks back to it. He said he thought he had died while running and was meeting the grim reaper.”

He will never forget how scared that boy was. It was to the point he almost wetted himself when he saw Yue Ling. Of course, he can't add this part to the story because he swore to never tell anyone.

Jiangyu was dumbfounded when he heard the story. He stares at Lin Hui with heavy eyelids like someone had tried to tape his eyes closed.

”Let me guess that boy was you?”

Lin Hui abruptly stops laughing when he heard Jiangyu's words. He looks at the bulky and tall man with squint eyes. His expression as if saying Jiangyu had guessed correctly.

”Of course!!”

However, in a split second, he burst into another hysterical laughter and held his stomach.

”Of course, that boy wasn't me!”

He held his stomach with one hand and raised his other hand to point in a particular direction.

”It was Tang Zhonghui.”

His raised hand moves to his eyes, and he wipes away any tears.

”Only an idiot would be caught by my boss.”

”…”

Jiangyu stares at Lin Hui and felt he had been dumbfounded by the man too many times. For a second there, he thought the boy in the story was Lin Hui.

Usually, when a person tells a story, it is about themselves, but this story was not what he had expected.

The longer he stares at the man laughing, he felt curious about how all Fate members came to meet his lady boss, even his little monkey. Since their relationship bloomed, he hasn't asked her how she became a member of the underworld.
