The Devil's Sleeping Beauty

Chapter 21 What could go wrong?

Arriving in an abandon warehouse, their only source of light was the car’s headlights. Lu Yifeng went out of the car and was followed by Xia Meiren who was carrying Little Melon in her arms.

"Momma, where are we?" Little Melon asked sleepily.

"Shh, baby." Xia Meiren said softly.

Lu Yifeng turned to Zi Lin, his driver who went out of the car as well. "Get them out of here."

"But master, you can’t fight them alone with your con-

"Now." Lu Yifeng’s words were firm and absolute that Zi Lin couldn’t help but follow his master.

Zi Lin turned to Xia Meiren and Little Melon with a heavy heart. Zi Lin wouldn’t usually be worried about his master since his fighting skills were above average, he was just worried that with too much movements and pressure he’ll make while fighting, his wounds might open up. Since Little Melon was behave whenever Lu Yifeng carried him, he didn’t need to move his body much.

"Please follow me, madam, young master."

Xia Meiren couldn’t help but get worried of Lu Yifeng since he’ll be facing those men alone. Even if she hates him, she was not a cruel person to wish for his death. She just wants him to rot in prison as justice will be serve to him. Death was like an easy escape from his sins that’s why she was not going to allow it

"Make sure to come back." Xia Meiren told Lu Yifeng before she turned away and followed Zi Lin

Lu Yifeng’s cold face cracked a bit as a small smile was seen on his lips. There’s no way that he’s going to allow himself to die when he still has to make up for the family he just gained.

Xia Meiren followed Zi Lin to the backdoor of the warehouse. When they went out, a black Mercedes Maybach was seen.

"This..."

Zi Lin took out another key and opened the car’s door for her. "Master has always prepared an escape plan whenever things went out of hand. This is one of the places he has prepared whenever someone tries to go after his life." He explained. "Please get in."

"Momma, why is dada not coming with us?" Little Melon looked at her in confusion.

Xia Meiren tried to give him a reassuring smile, "Don’t worry, baby... Your father just need to meet with some friends."

"Can’t Mello meet them? Dada’s friends is Mello’s friends!" He grinned at her. He was clueless and innocent of the situation they were in right now.

"They have some work to do so right now, you can’t."

"Madam, we need to hurry up." Zi Lin reminded as he was now sitting in the driver’s seat. He already called for backup but because of the place they were in right now, it would take time before they would arrive. Zi Lin could only pray for his master’s safety.

Xia Meiren placed Little Melon inside the car and placed the seatbelt on him. "I need to go help your father so that he can come back early."

Little Melon nodded and smiled, "Okay! Mello will wait for momma and dada at home."

She placed a soft kiss on his forehead before she leaned back and closed the car’s door. She looked at Zi Lin. "Protect my son at all cost."

Zi Lin furrowed his brows. "Madam, I can’t leave you here. Those men are not ordinary people. You will only be a burden to master."

How can a sweet and frail looking girl give his master an assistance in fight?

"Don’t worry, I won’t bring him down. Now go." She turned and went back, entering the warehouse through the back door. She didn’t leave any room for him to argue.

His master would surely skin him alive for not being able to hold Xia Meiren back!

He wanted to follow her and bring her back but with Little Melon around, he was placed in a complicated position. He could only drive his car away from the place as Little Melon stared at him with his cute big eyes. "Momma is always right, uncle driver."

"Ugh..."

Meanwhile, back in the warehouse, the three black cars that followed finally arrived inside the warehouse. A couple of men, wearing black suits went out of the car.

"What a surprise to find you here all alone, Mr. Lu."

The light from their cars were their only source of light. They all looked at Lu Yifeng who was standing in front of them. The men started surrounding him, they were ordered to capture him, not to kill him since their master’s goal was to kidnap Lu Yifeng and by this, Lu Xian Yu has no choice but to show himself to save his brother. When he’ll come then he will fall to their master’s trap.

Lu Yifeng was in a very bad mood since these men interrupted his family time. A sudden frosty and menacing atmosphere emerged the place.

Faced with his sharp eyes like eagle’s, the men’s hearts skipped a beat all of a sudden like they were enveloped by an overwhelming iciness that covered the skies and ground; their surroundings were all piercingly cold and their instincts told them that danger was in front of them.

Lu Yifeng was like a huge and dangerous proud lion as he stood calmly in the middle.

But this didn’t make them back down, they were all highly trained fighters and they were just against one man, what could go wrong?
