"Any information on Chu Li Xiang?"

Yue Ling's question catches Liu Shan off guard. He straightens his posture and scratch the back of his head.

"I hacked every surveillance inside Imperial and outside, so far I haven't been able to locate him."

His eyes him murderously and his words continue.

"There's a possible chance someone is covering him. Do you think it's Chu Qiang's doing?"

Sitting at the side, Qi Li looks at Liu Shan when he heard the report. His expression is calm, but he's deep in his own thoughts.

Liu Shan is a pro hacker and there's not a single person who's skills can be on par with him. Yet, he can't locate Chu Li Xiang? What does that mean then?'

Listening to Liu Shan's report, Yue Ling did not get angry, she calmly nod her head.

"After visiting Chu Qiang, I doubt he has any ideas of what his younger brother did. Besides, Chu Qiang is not someone who will steep so low as to hurt innocent people."

Her bluish green eyes darken to the darkest black.

"Whether someone is hiding him or not, I will make him pay the price for hurting the innocent."

She looks at both men sitting across from her.

"Liu Shan, you continue to search his whereabouts. Qi Li, I need you to go undercover in Retro. I know I said everyone can rest, but we can't let him think of leaving Imperial."

While Yue Ling is discussing matters with Liu Shan and Qi Li, in another part of Imperial, Lu Tian arrives at Lu Corps.

He steps out of his car and walks toward the tall gloomy building of Lu Corps. He wore a grey suit with a black dress shirt and matching black Oxford shoes.

Waiting in the lobby is Xu Long, who has a laptop and some documents in his hands. Seeing his boss enter the building, he slightly frown inside.

His boss usually dress in plain colors, but how is it that the man is capable of looking so good? Why is humanity so evil?

He sigh to himself and push the thought away. Rushing over to Lu Tian he waves with one hand.

"Boss! You're here."

Lu Tian looks indifferently at his assistant and nod his head in response.

Both men make their way towards the elevator.

"Ah, CEO Lu!"

Just when they enter the elevator, a middle age man calls out and also enters.

Seeing who it is, Xu Long pout his lip without hiding the look of disgust on his face. However, due to work protocol, he has no choice but greet the middle age man.

"Good morning Director Qian, what brings you here so early?"

Qian Chi Xue looks at Xu Long and snort a scoff.

"You're only an assistant, as a member of the board, I do not need to report to you."

Finishing his words, he completely ignores Xu Long. To him, his authority is far superior than a lowly assistant.

He turn his head to other person inside the elevator. However, seeing how Lu Tian's expression is the same indifference, he couldn't help but feel a slight chill crawl on his back. He quickly changes his demeanor and he smiles.

"CEO Lu, I'd like to discuss with you about my daughter. I know she did something unforgivable, but as a shareholder of Lu Corps, will you reconsider and allow her to come back to work for you?"

Qian Chi Xue chuckles a laugh and pat Lu Tian on the shoulder. As he did so, he does not see Lu Tian's gaze shift to the hand on his shoulder before looking back ahead.

"My daughter has been spoilt since young, so her way of comprehending to things are different. I hope you'll change your mind."

He set his hand down and hands Lu Tian a folder.

"If you allow my daughter to come back and work for you, I will gladly raise the percentage in my share of Lu Corps."

As Qian Chi Xue spoke each word, his expression is beaming with self confidence. However, unlike him, Xu Long's shoulder's slouch more and more to the floor. He cannot believe someone like Qian Chi Xue can think so highly of themselves. It's no wonder that evil woman is how she is!

He wish that he can throw the scheming father and daughter duo in the ocean for sharks to eat.

Wait no, he can't do that, it would be disrespecting the sharks if they were fed such foul food.

His nostrils flare and he opens his mouth to speak, but before he could, Lu Tian's eyes signal him to not do anything reckless.

Left with no other choice, he takes a deep long breath and looks away.

Seeing this happen, Qian Chi Xue felt even more satisfy. Since Lu Tian told Xu Long to back off, that can only mean that he is reconsidering the proposal.

Thinking of it, he could already see everything fall into place. His daughter will come back to work in Lu Corps and it won't be long until Qian Li Li wrap Lu Tian in her hands.

When that happens, he will be the father in law of the business king and no one will dare to mess with him.

Lu Tian looks at the middle age man and his eyes slightly narrow before returning to normal.

"Director Qian, as an employee of Lu Corps, you should know by now that I am a person who does not take back what is done."

He tilt his head and slightly raise his chin as he looks down at the middle age man who is beaming with confidence.

"I don't appreciate people threatening me, especially if it's someone who works for me."

His words finish and the elevator door dings as they've reach the top floor.

Lu Tian does not bother to look at Qian Chi Xue and walks out with Xu Long happily following behind.

Before the elevator door close, Lu Tian pause in his steps. He does not look back at the person left inside, but his words continue with a hint of warning.

"My assistant is not someone a person like you can talk down on."

The elevator door closes and Qian Chi Xue is shock to the core. His mouth open and close like he want to say something, but nothing can be said. Not only that, he is the only left in the elevator.

Remembering Lu Tian's warning, he clench his hand holding the folder tightly before taking his phone out. He dials a number and after two rings, someone answers, but before the person could answer, he's already yelling.

"You ungrateful child, what did you really do that angered CEO Lu so much?!!!"

In another part of Imperial, Qian Li Li sat up on the bed while holding her phone away from her ear. She pout her lip as her father's loud voice can still be heard clearly.

After what seem like a long day has gone by did she not hear her father anymore.

Putting the phone back to her ear, she puts on a wrongful act like someone how has been accused of a crime they did not commit.

"Father, how can you call me so early in the morning only to yell at me?"

Her eyes turn teary and she sobs a whimper.

"I.... I'll explain everything when you stop yelling at me."

Without letting her father speak, Qian Li Li ends the call. She looks at the phone in her hand and her expression change from a sad child to one who does not care.

"It's so early, what did your old man want?"

A man laying down on the bed asks as he looks at Qian Li Li. He could already guess what happened, but he asked to be polite.

Hearing the man, Qian Li Li place her phone down. She lays down and wrap her arm around the man's waist while resting her head on the man's chest.

"It's nothing, he'll calm down in a few hours."

The man pat her head and he let's out a chuckle.

"Do you need my help with anything?"

Hearing the man's words that she was waiting for, Qian Li Li's eyes flash with an accomplish gleam. However, when she looks up at the man, she puts on an innocent little girl look.

"Ning Xingyu, you have to give me justice. I tried to help you, but I got fired."

Ning Xingyu looks at Qian Li Li and his lip arc in a charming smile. Anyone who sees his smiles will see him as a rather good looking man, but behind that smile is nothing but evil.

He caress Qian Li Li's cheek and leans down to kiss her lip.

"Don't worry, I have everything under control."

As his last word fell, he shifts their position and the two people immerse in a morning activity of lust.

Back at Lu Corps, Lu Tian stood in front of the huge window in his office. In his hand is a cigarette as he leisure smokes it.

Sitting on a chair a few feet away, Xu Long is typing away on his laptop. In moments, his fingers come to a stop and he turns the laptop screen to his boss with a serious expression.

"Everything is complete and I've sent an email out."

Lu Tian turn his head to look at the laptop screen.

One end of his lip arc in a half smile and he kills the cigarette in his hand.

Seeing this look, Xu Long feels a chill creeping up all over his body.

From his time working for Lu Tian, it has made him understand the cold blooded man more than anyone. Be it the business world or the underworld, he has seen it all.

He has to admit, that smile is by far the most heart throbbing smile to the world, but for him, that smile is the existence of king Yama.

He couldn't help but shiver again and caress his arms to rub away his goosebumps.

Looking at his laptop, he shook his head and sigh.

This person is so pitiful. If they had chosen the right path, they wouldn't have to cross path with his boss.

Oblivious to Xu Long's thoughts, Lu Tian walks over to his desk and put his suit coat on.

"Have Secretary Ye push all my meetings to the afternoon."

He walks out of his office with a flash of killing intent in his ink black eyes.

"I'll be paying Doctor Xie a visit."
