\"Bro, sorry to ruin your energy, but you’re a little late.\"

Xu Long held his position in alert, but hearing the familiar voice, he turns his head to the left of him and the two assistant lock eyes.

Seeing that it was his new family and not the enemy, he slowly rise from his crouch position.

Liu Shan’s usual carefree aura had return to him like the darkness emitting from him earlier had never been there.

He walks towards Xu Long as Qi Li did the same from the door entrance of the factory.

Both men were glad to see Lu Tian’s assistant did not meet any trouble and is here with his energetic personality. It would have been nice to see him in action, but he was a few seconds too late.

However, they can’t help but wonder what happened when he (Xu Long) took Zhao Ya’Er home. What could have possibly taken him such a long time to get here?

\"Shan! Li! Long! Where is Ah Ling?\"

Just as Liu Shan and Qi Li stopped next to Xu Long, an even more familiar voice calls out from the side. All three men turns to look at the person.

It was Grandfather Ji. He wasn’t wearing his usual changshan attire but dressed in a nice military uniform.

Looking at the old man, Liu Shan gestures a polite bow.

\"Yue Ling and Lu Tian went after Chu Li Xiang. If my guess is correct, they should have him in custody and are headed this way.\"

Hearing the young man’s words, Grandfather Ji sighs in relief. He swore, ever since this granddaughter of his arrived in Imperial, she is always trying to give in a heart attack.

She has yet to fully recover and is already running off to beat the bad guys.

His daughter is a pure and innocent woman, while his son-in-law has a good temper. Both her grandmothers are sweet women who wouldn’t lay a finger on a bug.

Just who does she take after?

Ah, right. She takes after him and Old Han.

Shaking his head, he massage his forehead then waves to the soldiers waiting for his command.

\"Search the place top to bottom. Cover all exits. Any enemy still alive, take them in.\"

\"Yes General.\"

Grandfather Ji’s domineering voice gives command and the soldiers answer all together. Each person quickly split into groups of five to search for any enemy still breathing.

As the soldiers commence, so did the police officers and paramedics. On their way here, Liu Shan had informed them of the situation and the hostages.

Qi Li walks over to Grandfather Ji and he gestures a polite bow to the old man he respects.

\"Grandfather Ji, Lin Hui is inside with a woman Yue Ling was able to save. As for the other hostages, a few of them suffer injuries, but...\"

Before Qi Li could finish his words, Grandfather Ji stuck his palm out to stop the young man.

He didn’t need to hear the rest as he already know what had happened.

Chu Li Xiang has been a wanted man within Imperial for many years. Many have been deceived and murdered by him. However, law enforcement were never able to catch him because they could never trace the crime back to the scum.

Even though they were not able to catch him, he (Grandfather Ji) never let his guard down.

Fortunately Chu Li Xiang’s attempt to kill Yue Ling and his escape from prison gave them a good reason to punish him by law. Not only this, his attempt at human trafficking is another sentence on his head.

Just thinking about the despicable man makes the blood boil inside Grandfather Ji.

Murdering his great grandchild has yet to subdue his anger and now his granddaughter was almost sold off to who knows where.

\"Shan! Qi Li!\"

From behind, another voice calls out to the two men catching their attention.

Turning to see who it is, to their surprise it was none other than Ji Jingxu. Following behind was also Ting.

The two young men had jumped down from a military helicopter, but neither were in military uniform. Instead, they were clothed in black tactical gears and fully armed.

If someone who didn’t know saw them, they would no doubt think Ji Jingxu and Ting had years of experience on the line.

\"Where is jie? Is she okay? Is that bastard dead? Where is he? I’m going to skin him alive!\"

Questions burst into Liu Shan’s ears as Ji Jingxu grabs the front of his shirt and vigorously shakes him.

Liu Shan doesn’t stop the boy but allows Ji Jingxu to carry on. Like his neck no longer had any bones, his head tilt back then forward, then side to side.

After what felt like an entire year had gone by, Ji Jingxu finally let go of the assistant. His breathing was heavy, but he stares at the man with a confused expression.

\"Did you die? Why are you not answering me?\"

Liu Shan stood still with his head tilt back and he stares up at the clear blue sky. His eyes were heavy as he blinks them then looks down at the boy.

\"I would have died if you kept shaking me.\"

\"...\"

Hearing his words, Ji Jingxu’s cheeks flush pink. He had been so worried and angry that he was unable to control himself.

Shy and embarrassed, he scratch the back of his head and sarcastically chuckles.

\"Heh, heh. Sorry.\"

Liu Shan lightly shook his head at the boy he sees like a little brother.

Lifting one hand, he pat Ji Jingxu on the head and slightly messing up his (Ji Jingxu) hair.

\"Your sister is safe. She is with Lu Tian.\"

His words fell and he sees something from the corner of his eyes. A faint smile curls on his lip and he gestures with his head in the direction.

\"Don’t believe me? You can see for yourself.\"

Not only Ji Jingxu, but Grandfather Ji and Ting turned their head to see what Liu Shan was looking at.

Three pair of eyes widen and quickly rush in the pointed direction.

Walking around the corner of the abandoned factory was Yue Ling and Lu Tian. The aloof man held his wife’s hand as they made their way to join everyone else.

Grandfather Ji: \"Ah Ling! Lu boy!\"

Jingxu: \"Jie!\"

Ting: \"Miss Han!\"

As the two boy and the old man reach Yue Ling and Lu Tian, those nearby couldn’t help but turn to look.

Liu Shan, Xu Long and Qi Li were part of those people.

The three men stood at the same height as they watch from a far, yet near distance. With everything that had happened, it was best to let Yue Ling interact with her family.

\"Ah Ling, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere? Why are you moving around when you haven’t recovered? I nearly had a heart attack when I heard you were kidnapped. Are you injured? Tell yeye if you feel pain anywhere. Where is that bastard Chu Li Xiang? I’m going to make him suffer! No, first, lets get you checked up. Come, let’s go.\"

This time, it was Grandfather Ji’s turn to ask the questions without pausing to take a breather. His strong and influential image was completely ripped off and replace with one of doting and worry.

Yue Ling stares at her old man and she sighs inside.

Many see him as the strict and hostile general, but she knows he is not one bit like that.

In truth, he is the sweetest and nicest person she knows. A man who never wants any living being in the world to be harmed.

Looking away from her grandfather, she looks to Ji Jingxu and Ting before directing her attention back to the old man.

\"Yeye, I am fine.\"

She stuck out both her arms to show him, but unbeknown to her, there were dirt marks and the sleeves of her shirt had slight torn pieces.

\"See. I am not harmed anywhere.\"

Her words continue and points behind with her thumb.

\"And the bastard is right there.\"

Appearing behind the couple was Jiangyu. He had rushed to check on his boss and lady boss. However, he wasn’t alone and was carrying Chu Li Xiang over his shoulder like a sack of rice.

Stopping next to his boss, he drops Chu Li Xiang’s body onto the ground without any care if the man will suffer from more pain.

Looking down at the unconscious man, Grandfather Ji’s lower lip tremble in full on anger. He grabs his pistol that is strap to his waist and he aims it at Chu Li Xiang’s head.

\"Old man, I have a request.\"

Lu Tian who had not said a word finally spoke. His voice made Grandfather Ji look at him, but it did not subdue the anger inside him.

\"What request?\"

Turning his head to look down at Chu Li Xiang, Lu Tian’s eyes dimmed dangerously.

\"Road trip.\"
