Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Hearing the sudden sound of gunshots, Lu Tian’s face drained of all colors. Who fired the shot? Did something happen to his wife?

Lifting his hand, he press the earpiece to connect himself to Liu Shan.

"Are you able to trace the sound?"

["Yea, it came from the room Yue Ling is in."]

Getting an answer, Lu Tian could hear the sound of multiple footsteps approaching the back door.

Seems like those guarding outside had heard the gunshot and were now making their way inside.

Just as he thought this, ten men from outside rushes inside. Each person carried their own weapon and ready to shoot at any time.

["Hold on."]

Liu Shan’s voices sounds in to warn Lu Tian not to move as he could see two more groups advancing from either side of the building.

As their figures enter abandon factory, he checks to see if there were anymore. After confirming it was clear, he finally gives signal for the aloof man.

["Clear."]

The assistant spoke as the last man of a group runs pass the small closet space. Lu Tian steps out from his hiding spot and follows closely behind the group.

Due to the sudden commotion of the gunshots, his figure blended in with the enemies without them noticing him.

Inside the room Yue Ling was in, a man suddenly enters only to see three of his brother dead on the ground. His eyes shook in horror before anger rose inside him.

He doesn’t check for their pulse as he knows they were already dead just by looking at their wounds.

Turning around to let the others know, he was suddenly met with the slim fist of a woman.

"Ugh."

The punch was enough to make his head fling back but not enough to knock him down. Just as he repositioned his head to see who punched him, he was met with the black hole of a muzzle.

*BANG—

A bullet penetrates between his eyes and it was enough to force his body to fall onto the ground.

As the man entered death, he never saw who had shot him.

Yue Ling stares at the man and sees that his gun had a silencer attached to it. Tossing away the gun she was using, she grabs the one with a silencer and returns to her hiding spot.

Outside of the room, everyone could hear the loud bang of another gunshot. Quickly scattering into smaller groups, everyone makes their way to find the person.

A man rushes to the room Yue Ling is in as he had heard the gunshot come from inside. However, just as he appeared in the doorway, he saw the four dead bodies inside and Yue Ling was not in sight.

"A woman escaped!!"

He roared loudly through the hallway as his voice echoes for the others to hear. He doesn’t enter the room but leaves to search for the woman who had escaped.

If he had taken another step through the door, he would have been another victim of the escaped woman.

Outside of the room, Lu Tian followed the group of his enemy inside the place. There were a total of five people with him being the sixth.

As they heard the sudden warning that a woman has escaped, he sighed inside in relief. The woman mentioned must be his wife.

["She’s still in the room."]

Liu Shan’s voice comes through again to let Lu Tian know. The assistant had been keeping watch through the cameras and saw that Yue Ling has not left the room she was taken into.

Hearing the assistant’s words, Lu Tian does not answer as his voice would alert the enemies he was following behind.

Just as Liu Shan’s last word fell, the group suddenly stops as the one leading turn to face the others. They cannot let this woman escape or she will inform the authority and they will be doom.

Right now, it was best to have them split up in search.

The moment he turned to let the others know, his body froze in place and his eyes stares to the person standing in the back of the group.

He was taller by a head and a half. How did no one notice him?

Dread crawled inside him like tiny spiders eating away all his internal organs. His lower lip began to tremble uncontrollably with his slightly widen eyes.

"L...L..."

He tries to say the person’s name, but it was like something was suddenly stuck in his throat and he was unable to say what he wanted. All he could do was stutter and hope that his voice would return.

Seeing the man suddenly turn into an idiot, the other four men were at a loss for words. This man is the leader of their group due to his capabilities, but why does he look like he’s seen a ghost?

One of the men standing in the back, frown at the man. His head slightly tilt to the side and he turns to follow the man’s gaze to see what it was.

And quickly like the man, this man was wash with a seeping wave of unexplainable fear.

"It’s... It’s Lu Tian."

Hearing the man’s words, everyone in the group became alert but at the same time in doubt. How can Lu Tian enter the place without them noticing?

Turning to see if the person mentioned was really there, everyone is met with the cold gaze of the almighty business king.

Lu Tian stared back at each man with that seductive smirk that can kill a person.

Seeing each person finally coming out of their daze and positioning their guns, he makes his move.

He shoots the man to his right in the leg, then swiftly sends a bullet to the head of the man standing to his left.

Walking forward like he was strolling in his house, he sends three more bullets to the other three men.

As the last man fell to the ground, he turns to the first person he had shot.

"P-Please don’t kill me..."

The man watched his brothers get taken down as he tries to crawl away. However, when he saw the man leading the group easily taken down, he knew he was next.

Staring Lu Tian in the eyes, he tries to plead his way for the man to let him live.

"Please, I have money... I’ll give you all—"

*Pu!

Before the man could finish his words, he was greeted by Lu Tian’s silent bullet that finished the sentence for him.

"Which room?"

Lu Tian’s deep voice sounds a question like he was talking to the five men he killed. However, they were not the person he was asking.

["Six. Left."]

As the entire place turn chaotic in search for Yue Ling, she stood nonchalantly inside the room. Listening to the footsteps outside, she waited until it was quiet.

Since they think she had run off, they will probably search inside place then outside.

The last set of footsteps runs pass the room she is in before the silent she was waiting for finally arrives.

Holding the gun tightly in her hand, she takes a quiet step towards the door. Right now, she can only trust her instincts as she could not see anything beyond the door.

Just as she took a step, she could hear a faint set of footsteps approach the room. It was very quiet and unnoticeable, but she was able to vaguely make it out.

Quietly taking a step back, she repositions herself and prepares to shoot whoever it is.

The footsteps close in before a tall dark figure of man swiftly enters the room.

Yue Ling didn’t look at the person’s face and quickly reacts like how she did with the other people that entered the room.

She strikes a sneaking kick to the person’s waist as she sends a silent bullet to his head.

However, the person responded fast and grabs hold of her leg.

His head tilt to the side as he dodge the unexpected bullet that could have ended his life.

In that exact moment, it was like time had stopped. Yue Ling froze in place and she stares with widen eye at the person.

Her mouth was slightly agape, and her mind turned into a hectic mess.

After what felt like an entire day had pass, she was finally able to think clearly.

"Tian?"
