“Rubbish! The six of you can’t even take on one man? Are you even worthy of the three million dollars I pay you every year?!”
Within a luxurious villa, a young man was boiling with anger. In front of him stood six injured men, who had all lowered their heads as the young man lashed out at them.
“Sir…that man was too strong. We didn’t even have enough time to stop our car before he had already begun attacking us. We weren’t able to fight back.”
“Rubbish! You’re all rubbish! Did you tell him that I was behind this?”
Chen Jia Jun was extremely furious. He assumed that his six men could finally teach Li Tian a lesson and also bring Lin Yi to him. However, he didn’t expect that things would go wrong.
“N-no, we wouldn’t dare to.”
One of the men answered timidly.
However, little did Chen Jia Jun know that this wasn’t the case at all.
How could I not say anything? That man was a monster. He easily broke the car bumper and threatened to hurt us. He even said that he would kill us if we continued to keep our mouths shut!
“Good. You know the consequences if you did.”
…
In her dimly lit bedroom, Lin Yi gently laid her head against her pillow. She was usually asleep at this time, but today, she had come home late. As she laid down, she thought about Li Tian’s words.
The people that had been chasing after the two of them had been sent by Chen Jia Jun. In actuality, Lin Yi’s first reaction upon hearing this was that Li Tian had lied to her due to his dislike for Chen Jia Jun.
However, she immediately rejected this notion upon thinking of it.
She told Li Tian that she would believe him, so was she going to go back on her words?
I should just believe his words and take it as the truth.
As she laid on the bed, Lin Yi’s chest felt heavy. She didn’t expect that Chen Jia Jun would be the one behind this event.
Lin Yi believed that Chen Jia Jun was a decent person. Even though she didn’t have romantic feelings for him, she still treated him as a good friend. Lin Yi didn’t have many friends, and Chen Jia Jun could be considered as her only friend.
However, after that incident, she completely changed her mind.
After worrying for a period of time, Lin Yi finally felt slightly sleepy.
She hugged her favourite teddy bear as she slowly drifted off to sleep.
On the other hand, Li Tian was wide awake due to another matter. He was anxious about going with Lin Yi to visit her parents’ home in three days.
According to traditional Chinese customs, newlyweds were to pay a visit to the bride’s home on the third day of their wedding. However, due to the passing of Li Tian’s grandfather, they had to delay this matter. Today, Wang Ma had informed them that they were scheduled to visit Lin Yi’s parents’ home in three days.
Since he had returned to China, Li Tian realized that he had begun to experience many ‘firsts’ in his life.
For instance, he had never attended a family member’s funeral before, which consequently allowed him to realize how two-faced some people could be. Not to mention, he had also gotten married for the first time.
Now, he had to visit his bride’s home for the first time. It was only normal that he felt pressured.
He wasn’t close to the Lin family either. After experiencing the schemes his own family had used on him, Li Tian wasn’t fond of big and powerful families. Hence, he really didn’t know what to expect at all on that day.
Although he previously met with Lin Zheng for a few hours, it wasn’t during formal setting. On top of this, Li Tian was still at an awkward stage in his relationship with Lin Yi at that time, so he couldn’t really bond with her father.
Moreover, Li Tian was worried that the Lin family would request for something that would put him in a difficult position. However, he knew that, ultimately, he had no control over this.
At the thought of this, he decided to give Qin Yu Han a call.
He didn’t bother to care about the possible time difference of Qin Yu Han’s current location.
“Hey, Yu Han. I miss you.”
“Oh, I miss you too.”
“Really? What do you miss about me?”
“I miss the foot massages that you used to give me. I can barely feel my feet because I had been running the entire night.”
“What time is it over there?”
“3 in the afternoon. I’m heading to bed soon.”
“Oh okay, but since you’re still awake, I need your advice on something important. In a few days, I’ll be visiting my bride’s home. What should I do? You know well enough how my marriage came about, you said……”
“It’s fine, do you really think the Lin family really cares about your position as the young master of the Li family? They’re smart people, if they really wanted to take advantage of you, they would’ve done so ages ago. But, on the bright side, I see that you’re finally worrying about something. That’s good, it just means that you’re beginning to become more normal, more human-like.”
Qin Yu Han’s ‘compliment’ left Li Tian speechless.
Wasn’t I normal before this?
Uh…not really.
Qin Yu Han’s words caused Li Tian to ponder.
Indeed, he was starting to be afraid of socializing and dealing with people in general.
If it was a month ago, he would’ve never felt these emotions, as Li Tian didn’t even know the word ‘fear’.
However, after marrying Lin Yi, he had begun to understand what ‘fear’ was.
Before this, Li Tian was more used to simple emotions such as joy, sorrow, and anger.
Qin Yu Han was right. As days passed, he was becoming more normal. The old Li Tian who knew violence and the ways of slaughter was slowly disappearing.
Normal people should have feelings of anxiety and fear.
“Okay, I understand. Go to sleep. By the way, when is He Shang coming? I’ve been waiting for a few days but he hasn’t contacted me at all.”
Li Tian asked prior to hanging up.
“Soon. In two days.”
Qin Yu Han answered before she hung up.
Li Tian remembered how worried he was when Qin Yu Han and the rest of the team had accepted the SS level mission without him. Fortunately, they had the Shadow Wolf team by their side. Judging by their phone call, Li Tian assumed that they were still in the midst of completing the mission.
Just as Li Tian put his phone down and was about to go to bed, his phone suddenly rang.
It was an unknown number, but Li Tian decided to take the call even though he seemed doubtful.
“Hello.”
…
There wasn’t any response from the phone, only breathing sounds could be heard, as well as the sound of someone weeping?
“Who’s this?”
Li Tian asked again. Once again, there was no response from the other end of the call.

“I’m…really scared. Can you…come and keep me company?”
When he heard this voice, Li Tian was dumbstruck.
He knew this voice, it obviously belonged to Chen Ya Jing.
What’s going on? Why does she sound so scared?
