Hours quickly passes by and before anyone remembered to check outside, the sky had already turned red.

As the sun began to set, the people inside Uncle Zhi's shop were no longer cleaning up.

Unlike the messy place it had become overnight, the entire place was empty of things. Everything was moved out to the back of the store in a big pile.

Both teams finally found time to rest. Some sat on the ground without any care of dirtying their clothes, while the others sat on the chairs they had built using the broken pieces of woods that were once shelves.

Entering the back door, Yue Ling had just finished making a phone call. When she saw the sight in front of her, she couldn't help but smile.

Everyone had met on the day of the fashion show, but neither team were familiar with one another.

However, after spending a long day of working together, the once awkward air around has disappeared.

Looking away from the many people, she walks over to Lu Tian and Uncle Zhi who were standing near the door to the secret room.

"I informed Uncle Luo. He said he'll have his team come move the things tomorrow morning."

Hearing her voice, Lu Tian nod his head in understanding as Uncle Zhi smiles thankfully to her.

Unlike the two men who understood her reason, a member of Wolf Team sitting on the ground furrow his brows confusingly.

He didn't understand why they needed Manager Luo and his clean up crew to come collect the pile of trash they had gathered.

If that was the case, why didn't they just call them to come clean up the mess?

Thinking this, he couldn't help but mumble.

"Why are we waiting for Manager Luo to pick up the garbage? I mean- ack—"

As he planned to continue his words, the back of his head was suddenly smacked by someone.

He turns to the person and glares with eyes full of daggers.

"Assistant Xu, why did you hit me?!!"

Xu Long sat to the right of the man. He shook his head and index finger indicating a no.

"Shaofeng ah Shaofeng."

He motions his index in a circle to indicate the entire room and his words continue.

"Everything we picked up are not garbage."

As his words fell, Lin Hui's head pops out from the right of Xu Long and he continues to words.

"They are valuable items collected."

Just as Lin Hui spoke his last word, Liu Shan's head pokes out from the right of Lin Hui and finished the sentence.

"One item is worth 5 months of your salary."

"…"

Shaofeng, the man Xu Long smacked on the head for speaking garbage stares at the three men with heavy eyelids.

Now he can see why they get along. Their personalities are not so different from one another.

However, thinking about their words, his brows furrow again, and he looks at Uncle Zhi.

"But all we did was pick up trash that were broken inside Uncle Zhi's shop. Ack—!"

Suddenly, Shaofeng's head flung forward by another smack on the back of his head.

His face turned as black as the bottom of a pot and he slowly turns to look at the one person who would dare to do such thing to him.

"Xu! Long!"

Except, those murderous eyes did not affect Xu Long one bit.

He cross his arms over his chest and stares right back at Shaofeng like the man was some idiot student who doesn't pay attention in class.

"Let me give you some information."

His right arm unfolds and points down to the ground.

"Everything you picked up today in this shop are artifacts that not just anyone can get their hands on."

His eyes slightly widens like the evil stepmother at Shaofeng and gives the man a look as if saying, do you understand?

"Do you know why Uncle Zhi is able to get his hands on these 'garbage'?"

Xu Long raise his chin and made sure to emphasize the word garbage.

Staring at the assistant, Shaofeng didn't know why, but he felt like sweat was staring to form on his forehead as he listens to Xu Long's lecture.

His head slowly shook no to answer the question.

Xu Long rolled his eyes and his finger pointing at the ground shifts to the direction of Uncle Zhi.

"He is…"

Pausing in his words, he leans closer to Shaofeng.

"Zhi."

Just as Xu Long spoke his word, Lin Hui's head pops out again and points to Uncle Zhi.

"Jian."

Then like a practiced staged performance, Liu Shan's head pokes out and he gestures in the same way as Lin Hui and Xu Long.

"Hong."

"…"

Shaofeng was once again struck dumbfounded by the three men. His eyes blink with heaviness not knowing what to say.

He takes a deep breath and part his lip to speak, but before he could utter a sound, his eyes widen like never before and he looks at Uncle Zhi.

"Z-Zhi Jian H-Hong?"

Hearing the man suddenly throw the name back at him, Xu Long rolled his eyes in annoyance.

The three of them clearly said it loud and clear. Did their words go in one ear and out the other?

He lift his hand and smack Shaofeng's head again.

However, this time, Shaofeng was prepared. Even though his eyes were directed at Uncle Zhi, he was quick enough to block the hit.

Paying no more attention to the assistant and the other two (Liu Shan and Lin Hui), he tilt his head and continues to stare at the man called Zhi Jian Hong.

Not only him, but rest of Wolf Team also stared at Uncle Zhi when they heard his full name.

Hearing his name suddenly called by three different voices, Uncle Zhi turn to the source. Except, he was met with many curious eyes that made him feel slightly awkward.

Placing one hand behind his back, he raise the other to his mouth and clears his throat.

"Yes, I am Zhi Jian Hong. It is a great pleasure to work alongside all you youngsters."

It was indeed a late introduction, but since they are working together, he mind as well let them know who he is.

At his sudden self-introduction, Wolf Team gasps in shock.

As members of Wolf Team, they had to memorize the names and faces of those in the underworld and Zhi Jian Hong was a name they had to remember.

However, there was never a photo to identify the man, let alone anyone from the gang he was in.

Though they had seen Uncle Zhi's photo in the profile details Liu Shan sent them, they thought he was just an ordinary man who owns an antique shop.

Not only that, the name shown on his profile was only Uncle Zhi.

Never would they have thought this simple looking man to be none other than the infamous Gold Fist, Zhi Jian Hong.

The man capable of finding any treasure in the world and this person happens to be the mysterious righthand man of Fate's former leader.

It was said that anyone who meets his fists would see the color gold before knocking out.

However, words spread that after the former leader passed away, Zhi Jian Hong resigned from his position to wonder the world and was never seen again.

He was like a famous swordsman who left the Jianghu world to seek his own path.

It was no wonder the lady boss called Manager Luo to come collect the things. With highly valuables like the ones Uncle Zhi has, even if they were broken, they are still worth some money.

As each person thought to themselves, questions curiously flood in their head.

But why is someone like Zhi Jian Hong here? What is his connection to their boss and lady boss?

Like the assistant could read their minds, Xu Long's next words struck them to the furthest end of the world.

"Ah yes, I also forgot to mention that our lady boss is the current leader of Fate."

"…"

Like the roof had suddenly shattered, rain splashed onto each person like a waterfall.

In one single motion, the men of Wolf Team slowly turn their head to the assistant.

Staring at Xu Long, they all turned to look at the slim figure standing next to their boss.

"She… no… not possible."

A young member of Wolf Team subconsciously murmurs as he stares at their lady boss.

She looks so innocent and fragile, there's no possible way that she's the current leader of Fate.

Feeling like an entire day had gone by, everyone shifts their gaze to the members of Alpha Team.

Qi Li looked like a person who is only interested in racing, while the twins Gui Tian Lan and and Gui Zhongmin looked like models with great fashion styles.

On the other side, Lian Ni Shang and Shan Sinan looked like a couple, but the woman is more dominant than the man. While Tang Zhonghui looked like a lazy man who did have a care for anything.

Staring at the six people, Wolf Team were at a loss for words. Each person shift their gaze to Lin Hui and Liu Shan.

However, no one utter a sound as only God knows what they are thinking at this moment.

Liu Shan grins like a evildoer to them when they met his eyes.

"Surprising isn't it?"

"What—?!"

A deep voice suddenly echoes inside the empty shop as everyone turn to look.

Entering the door that once held the metal doors of the entrance, Jiangyu accidently shouted as he came to a sudden halt when they heard the news.

He and Ju Suo had left to buy some refreshments for everyone's hard work. However, as he was about to enter the place, he heard Xu Long's sudden reveal of their lady boss and Liu Shan's response.

His eyes blinked in disbelief as he did not know what to think right now.

Slowly turning his head to the left, he looks down at the petite woman standing by his side.

"J-Ju Suo, you're from Fate?"

It was then that Wolf Team was in a more speechless state of mind as they stare at the petite woman standing next to Jiangyu. She is so tiny and yet...

Hearing his question, Ju Suo pout her lip. Judging from his expression and the sound of his voice, she can already guess that he does not like those associated with gangs.

However, as much as she feels the heaviness in her heart, she cannot blame him.

He is from Wolf Team that follows the law, while she is from Alpha Team that goes against the law. Both their worlds are separated by a thin line.

A long sigh escapes her mouth and she glance up at the tall bulky man.

When she met his eyes full of questions, her eyes turned moist and she purse her bottom lip.

Lowering her head, she sighs again.

"I didn't choose the thug life. The thug life chose me."
