Unexpected Second Chance at Love Chapter 171

Chapter 171 Cold and ruthless

———-

Jingxu stare in disbelief and confusion at his grandfather. He could not believe what the old man had just asked.

What did he think about Lu Tian?

Uh… Is the man's name even something to think about?

There is not one person in Asia who does not know the name of China's business king. The cold and aloof man is like a legend. Not only is he a like a legend, Lu Tian is multi billionaire and China's most eligible bachelor. However, is he the best candidate for his sister?

Even though Yue Ling shows her smile to everyone, Lee Shin was the only man who's been able to put a real smile on her. A smile Jingxu has not seen since three years ago….

Can Lu Tian really give his sister true happiness?

Jingxu looks at his grandfather, "You want Jie to marry Lu Tian? That man is known to be cold and ruthless…."

Cold and ruthless?

Old man Ji looked at Jingxu. Thinking back to Lu Tian's personality, he couldn't help but agree. Lu Tian is a very powerful businessman, let alone a dangerous man at the same time. However, there's never been any source of scandal about the boy. Even if he is dangerous, he is dangerous for the good not the bad.

"Jingxu, he is not all that bad. I've watched him grow up, he's good as a potential husband for Ah Ling. I plan to introduce them on my birthday."

"…"

Jingxu rolled his eyes at the old man's words. So much for asking for his opinion. To think the Old man actually wants to pair his nice sister with the cold blooded man. That's like throwing a bunny into the tiger's lair.

As Jingxu ponder in thought about Yue Ling becoming Lu Tian's wife, he forgot who his older sister really is behind the mask.

"Since you already made your decision, there's no need to ask me, but make sure you tell Jie first. She just moved here, you wouldn't want to drive her away to another country."

Not waiting for a response, Jingxu stood from his chair and walks out of the study room. He's very tired and wants to sleep early. Stopping at the door, he looks at Old man Ji.

"Don't stay up too late. You're still young and handsome, it's not good for your OLD health."

Quickly, he opens the door and bolted out of the room.

"…"

Left alone in the room, Old man Ji was even more dumbfounded. He swore, every time he says something to boost his old age, Jingxu would always refute it back as a joke. Shaking his head, he leans against his chair.

Slowly, he takes out the handkerchief he had hid in his pocket. Looking down, the expression in his eyes changed into one of grief and regret.

Dark red blood stained the beautiful white handkerchief with the embroidery words 'yeye' at the corner. This handkerchief was the gift his granddaughter gave him. It was the very piece of design she made when she first started designing…..

Closing his eyes, his lips tremble and his hand tightens on the blood stained handkerchief. He thought about Jingxu's words about Lu Tian.

Even if words spread that Lu Tian is cold and ruthless, he knows the boy. If he can depend on someone with his life, that person would be Lu Tian.

He had hid the truth about his granddaughter being Yue Ling because his daughter and son-in-law asked him not to tell the world. They didn't want their only child to be in danger. To be a Ji and Han, one's life is always in danger. One deals with political affairs while the other dealt with the underworld.

However, his time is running short… Now, he can only be selfish and break this promise.

If he trust Inu's instincts and betroths Yue Ling to Lu Tian, he can rest without worry. If anyone is capable of protecting his granddaughter and grandson, then that person is definitely Lu Tian.

Opening his eyes, Old man Ji stood from his chair. Slowly walking to the open window, he stare out to the dark night.

"Ah Ling… Jingxu.. please forgive Yeye for being selfish…."

In another part of Imperial, an underground bar called 'Glory' is crowded with men and women. Each person out to enjoy a luxurious and busy night for themself.

As people got drunk in alcohol, at the very dark and back of the bar, faint sound of moans could be heard. However, no one cared, because this bar is a place specially for gangsters. And the sounds of moans were common as the loud music overpowers it.

Inside a dimly lit private room, a woman with brown hair sat on top of a man with blonde hair. Half clothed, her body bounce up and down as she enjoys a lustful act with the man sitting on the red couch.

"Ahh~!"

The woman continues to moan as she rides the man into climax. Her body shiver in pleasure, then she gets off from the man. She reach for a tissue and cleaned herself. After fixing her clothes, she sits down next to the man and pours them both a glass of liquor.

The man had also just finished fixing his clothes. He takes out a cigarette and leans back on the red couch. Lighting the cigarette, he inhales a puff of smoke.

"Sun, drink this."

The brown hair woman's soft voice enters the man's ears. Blowing a puff of smoke out, he looks at the woman.

She was indeed a beautiful woman. His eyes trail down to her arousing purple body con dress that revealed all her curves. Looking back up, he takes the glass of liquor in one hand and continues to smoke.

"Hua, can I trust you to get it done?"

Hua smiles at Sun, "Anything for you, I can do."

"That's good. It's only you who can accomplish this task."

The woman pout her lips at the man. She looks at Sun and couldn't but wonder about something. Even with the dim lights, she knows that Sun is a very handsome man in his early thirties. However, his slightly long hair always covered half his face. She's already seen it, yet she doesn't know why he still covers it.

"Sun, you should quit smoking. It's bad for your health."

Sun looks at the woman. Taking one last puff from his cigarette, he kills it.

"Hua, you should know better than anyone to order me around."

He downs the glass of liquor and place it on the table. Standing up, he grabs his coat and puts it on.

"I'll be here in China for a while."

Hua looks at the handsome man with brightly lit eyes, she wanted to say something, but decides not to. No one understands this man. Not even her, who's been in love with him for so many years.

Sun kisses Hua one last time, then he leaves the private room.

"I'll call you again, sweetheart."

Stepping out, a bulky man in a black shirt and pant bows his head, "Boss."

Sun looks at the man, then putting both hands in his coat pockets, he walks away from the private room.

"What happened?"

The bulky man looks at his boss as he follows behind, "Words just sent, Kim Siwoo is dead. It must be from those people."

Hearing the name, Hua clench his fists tightly. Another one of his men is dead. He needs to act fast or else those people will act before him.

Lifting one hand, he touch the right side of his face. Beneath his blonde hair covering half his face is a long scar. His eyes turned dark and murderous.

"We are no longer in our territory. Make sure no one is able to find us."

"Yes, Boss."

As the two figures quickly disappear into the crowd inside the bar, the woman inside the private room sat quietly. Pouring herself another glass of liquor, she downs it. Then again and again. Until the bottle was finished, she finally stops.

Slowly, she lays down on the red couch she and Sun just has sex. Closing her eyes, she sees the man's handsome face again. Her lip curls into a happy smile, then the image of his back when he walked out of the room enters her head.

Her smile disappears and she quickly sits up. Opening her eyes, she sighs in self-mockery.

"Choi Li Sun, how can you be so ruthless to me…?"

She knows the man is a sweet talker, but beneath all that is nothing but a man full of evil intentions.. yet, she can't help but love him….

Grabbing her silver clutch, she also leaves the private room. It was as if the two people had not met and done such a shameless act at all.

Walking through the bar hallway, each passing lights shines on her face. Revealing a woman with very innocent and soft features.

If Yue Ling and Liu Shan were here, they'd definitely know who this woman named Hua is.
