"You!" snapped Old Master Shenlong as he pointed at Callum angrily. He then asked, "What is this? Who is this man who claims that you are his man?!"

Callum was still in a daze from the kiss earlier until Ghost gave him a swift kick in the shin.

"Arh!" He yelled out as he held his bruised shin. He then turned to his grandfather and said, "He's telling the truth… We are together…"

"What do you mean by together?" snapped Old Master Shenlong. He placed one of his hand on the curve part of his cane.

Sensing the killing intent from him, Shenlong Yuan gently pulled Xiao Yi out of the way while Callum gently pushed Ghost behind him.

Instead of backing down, Callum scratched his head and said with an innocent expression, "I mean… We are in a man and man relationship...and I love this man more than anything else in my life... and if one day he allows me to, we would be doing naughty things on the bed like what a man and a woman would do in their free time…"

Behind him, Ghost facepalmed himself at Callum's description of their relationship.

Old Master Shenlong raised his cane and yelled, "You stupid grandson!"

For an old man who had passed his 75th birthday, he was energetic enough to lift his cane high and rushed towards Callum. Earlier, Ghost had been slightly worried that he might cause the old man to fall sick, but it looked like he was wrong.

Judging from the strength of his voice, the old man was obviously stronger and healthier than him.

Callum immediately grabbed Ghost's hand as they avoided his grandfather's cane. Old Master Shenlong chased them around the table for a few rounds. Meanwhile, Shenlong Yuan was laughing as he watched them while Xiao Yi continued to silently root for Callum and Ghost.

"Stop running!" yelled Old Master Shenlong as he stopped at the opposite side of Callum and Ghost.

Callum sneered, "If you calm down and promise that you won't hit me, then I won't run!"

Old Master Shenlong slammed the cane down on the table angrily, breaking it in half. All the plates and dishes fell onto the ground causing a cacophony of deafening loud sound.

The sound caused all the managers to rush in. Even some of the guests peeked into the private room out of curiosity.

The old man continued to snap angrily as he tapped his cane on the floor, "Oh, I'm not only going to hit you, but I'm going to break your leg! It's been too long since I last teach you a lesson, isn't it, Shenlong Xun?! Just because you have Du XiAn protecting you, you think that I can't do anything to you?"

Sensing how mad his grandfather was, Callum cursed, "F*ck!"

He could not hit his grandfather, but it would be hard to defend himself and Ghost at the same time. So, he used the next best strategy: Run!

He quickly pulled Ghost out of the private room they were in. They barraged their way through the crowd that had formed outside the room.

They could hear Old Master Shenlong ordering Shenlong Yuan to catch them, but both of them grinned at each other before they ran out of the restaurant and into Ghost's car.

As they sped away from there, Callum asked, "I thought you're not interested?"

"I don't like the idea of my man touching another woman…" said Ghost. He looked at the rearview mirror and saw that no one was following them before sighing in relief.

"Are you jealous?" asked Callum. His eyes were shining at the idea of Ghost being jealous.

"No. I just don't like people touching what is mine."

"You just said - I'm pretty sure that's the definition of jealous," murmured Callum as he raised an eyebrow at him.

Ghost gave him a quick glare before turning back to the road and said, "No. It's called being possessive. Read more books, you idiot."

In a very soft voice, Callum murmured, "No, that's called 'you are totally in love with me'."

Ghost did not say anything but when Callum was not watching, he smiled softly.

"You keep calling me your wife… I'll show you who is the wife here…" thought Ghost as he maintained a straight face. He was a little annoyed when he saw Callum serving that woman. As much as he wanted to stay in the background and watch them, a big part of him refused to.

While Ghost was driving, Callum suddenly asked, "Where are we going next?"

"Du Mansion... That's the safest place..."

"Are you staying over?" asked Callum as he looked at Ghost's face. He had expected Ghost to shook his head or tell him to f*ck off.

So, when Ghost nodded and said, "Mhmm..", Callum was overjoyed.

"My room?"

Ghost did not reply him, but Callum did not press on either. As long as Ghost was near him, he was a happy man.
