Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 491 looking for you



In the late of the night, quietness spread in the outskirts of Imperial in the distance. Blocked by many trees, rows of shipping containers lined in a neatly order.

Some containers had windows while others didn't. One can see a group of men guarding the place with a weapon in hand.

Place in the far back, the lights to the last shipping container remains on. Inside, there is an office desk and on the other side, a bed is set up with a side table.

"You could have meet me at a hotel."

Standing naked on the bedside, Ning Mei's figure is seen reaching for her undergarments that was tossed on the ground. Putting her bra and panties on, she then reach for her red dress not too far from her.

"If I was to be seen in a dirty place like this, do you know what that will do to me?"

Watching the rookie model's every move, Chu Li Xiang laid on the bed with the blanket covering the lower half of his body. A cigarette in hand, he leisurely smokes it as each puff he lets out begin to fog the entire room.

Finish putting on her dress, Ning Mei turns to look at the man. She had just return to Imperial when he called her through a private number to meet up.

Never did she think he would be in such a shabby place like this after escaping prison. Usually, they would discuss matters quickly then part ways, but this is the first time he threatened her to sleep with him.

She takes a deep breath and reach for her Chanel bag that was set on the side table.

"Next time, don't call me to meet for unnecessary matters unless you have finished the job."

Without waiting for a response, she strides for the door as she wanted to leave to get back to the city.

Chu Li Xiang stares at the woman leaving. As the door open and quickly closed, he scoffs a sneer.

To him, Ning Mei is not even comparable to his Julia. If it wasn't for the fact that Lu Tian killed his woman, he would never have called Ning Mei.

In fact, he could get any woman to come to him, but because he is on the run, he can't even show his face in the underworld, so he had to call her.

Thinking about their intimacy just now, he scoffs again. She isn't even good in bed and yet, she's so full of herself.

He sits up to kill the cigarette and gets out of bed. Reaching for his pants, he dress himself.

Right now, he is hiding from Lu Tian, but if by chance he gets captured, he won't be going down alone.

He will make sure that Ning Mei goes down with him to hell.

If he never agreed to help her, he would never have lost his woman and he wouldn't be cut off from Black Dragon.

*Knock Knock

Just as he finished putting on his pants and wore his shirt, a knock sounds at the door. His brows slightly furrow before he answers.

"Who is it?"

"Boss, Steelhead is here."

Hearing one of his men's words, Chu Li Xiang furrow his brows more. It's already so late, why would Steelhead look for him?

"Have him wait for me."

Putting on his shoes, he strides to the door and exit the room.

As he stepped out, his eyes didn't forget to scan the place like an eagle. Once he confirms that Ning Mei and her car is not in sight, he turns for another direction.

He loathes the woman for looking down on people from the underworld, but he cannot let others know that he is associated with her.

Arriving near the front of his hideout place, he sees the one arm man standing near a black car. Placing both his hands in the pockets of his pants, he smiles.

"Steelhead, it's rare of you to suddenly look for me. Is something the matter?"

Hearing the younger man's words, Steelhead looks up at him. A cigarette in his mouth, he walks over to meet Chu Li Xiang.

"Nothing is wrong, I personally came to tell you, our business ends here."

He did not want to waste any more time and beat the bush instead of around it.

After leaving Fate, he ordered his men to drive him here as he is the only person who knows where Chu Li Xiang is hiding.

He is here to let the man know that their deal of business is over. He cannot afford to put the life of his men in jeopardy all for this business.

Lifting his hand, he moves the cigarette away from his mouth.

"It was a tough decision, but do you know who is looking for you right now?"

Chu Li Xiang was struck in a daze. It had only been a few days and now Steelhead is suddenly saying he wants to back out from their business deal. The plan hasn't even started yet. How can he sudden back out?

However, hearing the man's next question, everything clicked together or so he thought.

He scoffs a chuckle in arrogance and takes his hands out of his pockets. Doing so, he also takes out a cigarette.

"Who is looking for me does not concern you."

Lighting the end of the cigarette, he takes a deep inhale before exhaling the smoke out.

"Our business deal is between us only. I will make sure it doesn't affect our personal lives."

He brings the cigarette to his mouth and his words continue.

"Don't worry. Even if that person comes looking for me, I won't involve you or your Blue Axe."

Steelhead stares at the man without answering. Anyone who hears Chu Li Xiang's words full of assurance would definitely agree. Even the plan he (Chu Li Xiang) had laid out for the business deal was one no one would be able to refuse.

However, now was different.

He can see through Chu Li Xiang's ill intentions in one glance. If he were to continue on with the business deal, that means he is involve with the man.

Mami made it clear that anyone who is associated with this man will perish with him (Chu Li Xiang).

Throwing the cigarette in his hand away, he steps on it to kill it.

"I've made up my mind. I won't be involved in your plan anymore."

Without waiting to see Chu Li Xiang's reaction, he turns around to his car waiting in the distance. He only came here to say this.

"Are you serious? You're backing out because you are afraid of Lu Tian?"

Chu Li Xiang raises his voice after the man. His free hand clench tightly at his side and his eyes dimmed dangerously.

"What about helping me take over Black Dragon? What about all the woman we kidnapped?!"

A sinister sneer curls on his lip and he scoffs at the one arm man. Tossing his unfinished cigarette away, he sounds a hmmf before speaking.

"Back out all you want. This clearly shows that Blue Axe's notorious leader is afraid of some businessman."

Hearing his taunting questions and words. Steelhead did not get angry.

"Taking over Black Dragon is something I can no longer assist you with."

As he spoke, his brows slightly furrow as he did not understand why Chu Li Xiang would suddenly mention Lu Tian.

However, not thinking much, he brush the thought aside. It is normal for Lu Tian to suddenly look for those in the underworld. Especially since Chu Li Xiang had escaped from prison, it can only mean the man is hunting his prisoner.

Recalling Chu Li Xiang's words of saying he is afraid, he won't lie.

He is afraid of Lu Tian as much as anyone else from the underworld, but to have that man and Fate after your life all at once, that is even more terrifying.

Turning to look at Chu Li Xiang, his eyes held no emotions.

"The person I was referring to isn't Lu Tian, but Fate."

Shaking his head in pity for the man, he turns back around and head for his car.

Whether Chu Li Xiang believes him or not, does not matter. He already said what he needed to say.

Watching the middle-aged man get inside the black car, Chu Li Xiang was stuck in a long daze.

Steelhead's last words repeats in his head, then Chu Qiang's.

'Fate is also coming to collect your life.'

At the time, he didn't think much as he thought his brother meant fate as in his destiny, but now, everything made sense.

From Steelhead's words, he can confirm that Chu Qiang meant that Fate.

His pupil shook uncontrollably, and his mind turns into a chaotic mess. His eyes subconsciously glance in all directions as a dreadful feeling rouse inside him.

He force his body to turn around and head towards his hideout.

The only thing he can think of is, run.

He needs to run as far from here as possible.
