Unexpected Second Chance at Love Chapter 589

Chapter 589 I rather die

Lin Hui turns his head to look at the man. His eyes flash with a dangerous light as everything about him turn into alertness.

"You're working for that loose woman?"

If Nie Chen dares to lay a hand on his boss, he will not hesitate to retaliate.

Hearing the question, Nie Chen scoffs like it was biggest joke he had heard. He folds his arms over his chest and gives Lin Hui a side stare.

"Really? You really think I would work for someone like her? I rather die than work for someone like her."

Yue Ling doesn't say a word but stares at Nie Chen like she was reading him. She has known him way longer than any of her other subordinates, including Liu Shan.

He lost his mother to cancer when he was young and lived with his father in Fate. However, the same day she lost her parents, he too lost his father, who was the chauffer.

From young until now, he was one of the most loyal members of Fate. When she withdrew Fate from the underworld, like Uncle Zhi, he decided to leave to start his own journey. He told her that no matter where he goes, if she ever needed his help, all she had to do was ask.

However, ever since they parted ways, she only heard a few things about him, and never bothered to check up on him. It wasn't that she did care about those who left, she just didn't want to put their new lives in danger.

Oblivious to Yue Ling's inner thoughts about him, Nie Chen did not hide anything from her or the others.

He goes on to tell them about the deal Ning Mei had to offer him. From start to end, he did not leave anything out at all. He even went so far as to tell about what he's been doing ever since he left Fate and the things Wei Hongyi asked him to do.

"And then, she left after giving me the names of my targets. I mean, how can such a stupid woman exist. How can she want something that is out of her reach?"

Yue Ling listened until he was done. She looks at him for a long second, then her brows crease.

"So, this entire time you've been working for that scumbag, Wei Hongyi too?"

It wasn't Yue Ling who spoke, but Liu Shan. The assistant stares at Nie Chen with a perplex expression and spat his words in a low growl.

"Did he ever order you to hit Zhao Ya'Er?"

This time, it was Yue Ling who spoke before the assistant could. Her soft angelic voice was extremely dangerous like it could kill at this moment.

Not only Nie Chen, but even Liu Shan and Lin Hui were shocked by her question. Neither Liu Shan nor Lin Hui has heard anything about Zhao Ya'Er being abused. If Nie Chen used to work under Wei Hongyi for money, then could it be that…

"Hey, I may kill for a little cash on the side, but I swear on my life, I never once hit an innocent woman."

Nie Chen did not hesitate to answer. His spine straightens and his righthand raise with three fingers pointing to the heavens above.

"I, Nie Chen, swore to the heavens, if I ever hit an innocent woman, I will be strike by lightning and die a slow painful death."

Seeing his expression and words full of seriousness, both Liu Shan and Lin Hui were dumbfounded. The assistant lowers his head and slowly shakes it.

"Nie Chen, you're going to be strike by lightning."

Struck flabbergasted by the man, Nie Chen was in disbelief. His head turns to look at Liu Shan and his nostril flares.

"After three years and that is what you have to say to me? How rude!"

"But it's true."

From the other side of Nie Chen, Lin Hui cuts in with a serious look.

"You swore on your life that you never hit an innocent woman, but you just attacked boss who is an innocent woman."

"…"

Now it was Nie Chen's turn to be dumbfounded at what he was hearing. His head turns from side to side at the two men then he points in the direction of Yue Ling.

"What innocent woman? She is as strong as any man out there in the world. I should be the innocent woman."

"…"

Yue Ling never once intervene in the conversation. However, she had to admit, Nie Chen is right.

She was born a woman, but after her parents left this world, she was raised no different from a life of the opposite gender. However, she had it much harder because she is a woman.

Which was the reason why she trained and studied hard every day. She made sure that even though she looked weak and fragile in the eyes of others, her strength and knowledge were never inferior to anyone else's.

Oblivious to her thoughts about his words, Nie Chen moves his hand pointing at her. He scratches the back of his head and chuckles.

"Boss, do you have any food? This subordinate is hungry."

Yue Ling returned to her senses and glance at the man. Thinking about something, she shrugs her shoulder and leans back on the couch.

"There's food here, but you should probably go ask your 'boss'."

Nie Chen was at a loss for words. He stares at her with heavy eyes. However, only for a quick second as he stood up and puts both his fist on his hip.

"I only do it for the money in order to survive this corrupted world we call Earth. No matter where I go or who pays me, I will forever be a loyal member of Fate and you, Han Yue Ling will always be my boss."

His words fell and he quickly walks away to the kitchen. He was afraid Yue Ling might stop him from eating as he was really hungry. However, everything he said was the truth.

He may have left Fate to seek his own path, but no matter where he went and who he worked for, his home is where Fate is.

There were even times when he would be captured by those from the underworld who holds a grudge against Fate. They would threaten him for information about Fate and Yue Ling's identity, but he never once gave in and escaped.

He had cheated death too many times, but he would rather die than betray his only family and home.

Yue Ling watched the man disappear into the kitchen. A faint smile curls on her lip as she felt it was nice to see him again. Out of all her subordinates, Nie Chen was the most shameless and careless one. Not only that, he was never afraid to pick a fight with her.

If he wanted to come back to Fate, she would welcome him with open arms as the door was never closed for him.

She sighs inside then looks back at the couch across from her. Seeing that Liu Shan and Lin Hui were still stuck in a daze, she clears her throat.

"Ahem."

Both Liu Shan and Lin Hui jumped up in surprise. It was as if their lost souls had suddenly returned to their body. Two pairs of eyes blink at the same time. However, it was not Nie Chen, who they were looking at but at each other.

Liu Shan's cheeks flush red in embarrassment and he looks away to his boss. At the same time, Lin Hui's ears turned red and he too looks in the same direction.

Shaking her head, Yue Ling fold her arms over her chest as her right leg cross over her left.

"Why wasn't I informed of Nie Chen��s arrival?"

Lin Hui part his lip to answer, but not knowing what to say, he gives Liu Shan a side glance. He sends a look as if saying, 'You're her assistant. You tell her.'

Left with no other choice, Liu Shan glares at the man before heaving a long sigh. He quickly puts on a stern expression and straighten his shoulders.

However, met with Yue Ling's eyes that can see straight into a person's soul, a crooked smile appears on his face then a chuckle.

"Heh. Heh. You see, we said we had something to report, but we didn't think the report would get here before us."

From the side, Lin Hui kept his mouth shut, but his head nod in agreeing to the answer.
