Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 412 your subordinate



While the situation inside Uncle Zhi's shop took place, outside in the back, Jiangyu and Ju Suo stood at the far end facing one another.

"I'm sorry…"

Ju Suo's child like voice quietly spoke with a sad expression. Her head hung low and she stares down at her feet. She could not bare to look at Jiangyu.

She had finally met the man of her dreams and everything was going fine. She did plan to tell him, but she wanted to wait until the finalized their relationship. Yet, something like this had to happen.

Does this mean she cannot like him anymore?

Jiangyu stares down at the petite woman who is not even half his size. His eyes blinks a few times with a confused expression.

He has never been in a relationship and no women ever approached him. In the past, if he were to even talk to a girl, they would run away in fear.

That being said, he's never been a situation like this.

However, hearing her sudden apology, he was even more confused.

Why does Ju Suo look so sad? Did he do something wrong?

The space between his brows crease into three tight lines and he decides to ask her.

"Why are you apologizing?"

"…"

Ju Suo lift her head and looks at him. Now it was her turn to blink her eyes in confusion. Isn't he mad that she is part of the underworld? Isn't this why he brought her out here, because he wanted to confirm?

She lifts her hand and scratch her cheek with her index finger as she looks away from him.

"It's because I didn't tell you that I'm a member of Fate."

She takes a deep breath and her words continue.

"I'm sorry for approaching you when you don't like people who has something to do with the underworld."

Hearing her explanation, Jiangyu was at a loss for all words. Thinking about what happened inside and her words, he finally put the pieces together.

His left-hand raise, and he stroke the back of his neck.

"I… I don't mind that you are a part of Fate or if you are involved with the underworld."

Ju Suo did not have the courage to look at the man in the eyes again. She was waiting to hear him say he cannot be involved with her. However, she did not expect to hear his next words.

"I… like you for who you are."

The nervous feeling inside her quickly disperse into thin air and she looks at him with her big round eyes. Before she knew it, her eyes were already glistening with moist.

Met with her tearful eyes, Jiangyu was flabbergasted. Is he so scary that his words alone were enough to make her cry? Should he have not said what he said?

Lowering his hand in awkwardness, he press his lips tightly together then decides to apologize.

"I'm sorry, what—"

"Ah! I'm so happy!"

Before Jiangyu could finish his words, Ju Suo exclaimed in joy and jumps onto the man.

Her tiny arms wrap around his waist and she beamed in happiness. Tilting her head back, she looks up at the man and smile with her teeth.

"I like you too, Jiangyu."

"…"

Jiangyu was taken back by surprise at her response to his sudden confession. He looks down at her and his cheeks flush red.

She looked like a cute little child. He wanted to pick her up and squeeze her tightly but could only hold himself back.

There's no possible way he would want to hurt her with his strength.

Lifting one hand, he pat the top of her head and clears his throat.

"I'm happy too."

How can he not be happy? He finally met someone who likes him and isn't afraid of him.

As the two stayed in a hugging position for a long time, they decided to go back inside.

Reluctantly parting from each other's body, Ju Suo smiles and skips her way back into the shop. She is so glad that Jiangyu doesn't hate her but accepts her the way she is.

Unlike the little woman, Jiangyu held a soft smile with his cheeks still flushing a shade of red.

He slowly follows behind her with eyes never moving away from her figure.

Only the heavens above know how happy he is at this moment.

He is so happy. It was like he can run an entire mountain and not be tired at all.

As he was lost in his daze about the woman, both his hands quickly grab hold of the door frame.

The little woman he was idolizing had suddenly stopped. If it wasn't for his quick reflexes, he would have rammed into her and probably sent her flying away.

"Ju Suo, why did you suddenly stop?"

He furrow his brows and asked her, but the moment he took his eyes off of the woman, he was dumbfounded at what he saw ahead.

Inside the empty shop, every person from Wolf Team and Alpha Team were no longer sitting on the ground or their chairs.

Instead, they were up posing in a horse stance in a neatly order.

Yue Ling stood in front of them with Lu Tian and Uncle Zhi standing at her sides.

Three pairs of eyes stares at the people with an expression full of indifference.

"Who started it?"

Yue Ling's angelic voice sounds inside the empty shop.

Her voice was as soft and soothing as usual, but everyone posing in a horse stance could only shiver in sweat.

She was like the fierce general in ancient times disciplining her soldiers for their wrong doings.

At first, she had already sensed the person who started the commotion, but she turned a blind eye to it because she knew the reason behind it.

However, what she did not expect was that, her and Lu Tian's team would break out into a fight in seeing who is more skilled.

Thus, this is why the situation now turned to this.

"I… It was me…"

In the far back of the many people, Yiqing's voice quietly sounds in embarrassment. He really did not expect the situation to get out of hands.

Truth was, he wasn't planning to find trouble. Once he learned that Alpha Team was a part of Fate, he wanted to test their skills.

It was said that every person from Fate cannot be taken lightly and like the rumors, Alpha Team did not fail his expectations.

Although they appear like ordinary people you pass in the streets, each person is highly skilled.

In the many years of his life, only two people are able to catch his needles, yet, every member in Alpha Team caught each one he had thrown.

Yue Ling stares at the skinny looking man with an arch brow. She knew it was him the moment she heard a faint swoosh of a needle.

However, she does not say anything to him and turn to the aloof man standing to her left.

"He's your subordinate."
