2 Years Of Restarting

"Boss?" An Lin was stunned speechless at that question. Did their Boss was truly switched by a different person? Why did he feel that their Boss continued to make exception by exception when talking with his wife?

"I can?" Yu Yan was surprised.

Long Ying nodded. "It's nothing interesting and not really dangerous to watch."

Not dangerous?

The lips of four people inside the room twitched when they heard what their Boss was saying. It was already dangerous enough if those people found out that they were from Dragon Clan. If they found out, they would surely hasten their speed and quickly disappeared from this place as fast as possible because they couldn't stand to stay in this place and possibly got killed because of their interference.

"Really?" Yu Yan tilted her head, feeling doubtful.

"If you're that curious, we'll go and watch. Tell me the time while I settle on these." Long Ying patted the papers on the table. During the time he was busy taking care of some other dispute, the other matters' problem piled up like this. He genuinely didn't want to let Yu Yan here too long lest the boys got even more rowdy and noisy.

An Lin nodded. "Then the punishment, Boss…"

"Go push up."

An Lin: "…"

Resisting the urge to curse, An Lin walked out and under the cheer of others, he began to start the push up. They were all laughing together until there was another person who rebuked them for not working.

Yu Yan listened to everything from inside the room with curiosity. "Are they always this noisy?"

"You haven't seen them when they're in the underground arena." San Xia shook her head. "They're noisier when there's no one who could supervise them and force them to do anything they didn't want."

"Underground arena?"

"It's like a basement." San Xia furrowed her brows, trying to figure out the most suitable explanation. "Well, in short, we also have a training place where we can beat up each other when we go there."

"Are you also strong, Sister Xia?" Yu Yan asked curiously.

"Of course!"

"I would like to watch your fight in the future."

San Xia nodded with a grin. "Sure, just come to the underground arena with Boss."

Long Ying, who had finished looking over a paper, glanced in their direction for a moment. The underground arena was quite messy and dirty. He didn't mind bringing Yu Yan to the base because it didn't look any different from ordinary office. But that underground arena…

Might be a different story.

An Luo looked at them and then spoke out, "Boss, there's the shipment in City A. I would like to go there with San Xia to take care of it."

Long Ying nodded. "You'll stay there to supervise it and handle the dealing."

"Boss, are you talking about the papers?"

"Yes."

An Luo rolled his eyes. He knew that Long Ying was too lazy to supervise everything by himself. There were too many paper that Long Ying had to review each day from the other areas and those that didn't hold much importance to him would be passed to others.

This was only the example.

"I understand Boss."

Yu Yan didn't know what she was supposed to do while waiting. An Luo and San Xia departed after getting the permission and probably would not return back anytime soon. As for Lan Huo, he was standing guard at the side and watched them work without moving.

It seemed that he had truly become the bodyguard.

'Well, I can read his books.'

She picked some of the business books and started to read. When she was young, her grandfather had taught her a bit about finance and as she read the books, the memories began to resurface once more. 

Time passed quickly.

By the time Yu Yan finished reading the book, it was already the time for lunch. Lan Huo quickly moved out to take two box of food. He placed one in front of Long Ying while the other ne in front of Yu Yan.

"How about yours?" Yu Yan glanced at Lan Huo.

Lan Huo pointed outside. "There's still a lot of boxes outside. I can just take one for me to eat."

"Oh."

After lunch, An Lin came inside and reported, "Boss, they're already heading to the designated location. Would you like to depart now?"

Long Ying took another glance at the pile of report on his desk. "Sort them out based on importance. Unless necessary, you don't have to pass it to me."

An Lin's lips twitched. Those documents were already filtered before handing to you, ah! Boss, do you want to reduce your workload again?

There were really nothing that could be reduced anymore!

"We're going now?" Yu Yan asked excitedly.

Long Ying nodded. "Remember to stay close to me, you're not allowed to get out without permission."

"Yes~!"

"Do you really understand?"

"I do!"

Looking at his mischievous wife once more, Long Ying had to make sure that Yu Yan would listen to his words before the two of them departed. The location was quite far, so it took some time.

But upon seeing the location where Long Ying brought her, Yu Yan felt that she was in the wrong place.

"Cake store?"

"We're only watching." Long Ying had a poker face as he held Yu Yan's hand and guided her inside.

Feeling dumbfounded, Yu Yan truly felt that her knowledge regarding the underworld was renewed again and again from the very first time she met Long Ying. It was as if he was telling her that their activities from outside didn't actually differ much than ordinary business.

But was that really the case?

Yu Yan felt that what she had seen from Long Ying so far was only the surface and that there were a lot of others that he didn't tell her.

The two of them picked a seat near the window. Long Ying tapped the glass beside him but he was actually pointing to someone outside. "That man with leather jacket is one of my men."

"Yes?" Yu Yan glanced outside with curiosity and her eyes landed on the very man that Long Ying mentioned. The man was walking on the street normally but it was clear that he was looking for something.

After a while, he stopped and leaned on the wall while smoking. His hand was holding onto a phone but he kept on glancing out to look at his surroundings from time to time. 

"What is he doing?" Yu Yan asked.

"Waiting."

Yu Yan's lips twitched. She could see that the man was waiting but what she didn't know what the person whom he waited for.

The waitress of the cake store came to them with the menu. She smiled sweetly. "Good afternoon. Welcome to Ru Sui Sweet, here's the menu. Would you like to order directly?"

Long Ying looked at the book for a moment before replying. "Chocolate Pudding 2 pieces."

"And Black Forest Chocolate Cake, medium size please."

The waitress smile and nodded. "I have taken your order. Chocolate Pudding two piece and Black Forest Chocolate Cake medium size. How about the drink?"

"Two glasses of water are enough."

"I understand. Please wait for a while."

After the waitress had left, Yu Yan pouted. "Why don't you order other drinks? There are some others that look more delicious."

"Are the lunch not enough?"

"Well, it's enough." Yu Yan grimaced at the thought that she had just finished lunch just now. Could her stomach hold on for another pudding?

Long Ying glanced to Yu Yan's direction with arched eyebrows. "I didn't know you like chocolate cake."

"I order for you." Yu Yan grinned. "Chocolate cake is your favorite back then, though I don't know if it's still the same now."

"I don't think I ever told you my favorite sweet."

"You did."

"Really?"

Yu Yan nodded. "Yes, that day when you…"

…

*11 years ago, Wei Xia High School in Capital City*

The young Yu Yan had just finished her duty when she heard the sound of teacher yelling from outside. From the way it sounded, she could guess that the young Long Ying had done something to anger her again. The words were unclear, but she could hear her shouting Long Ying's name.

"Yu Yan, have you finished?"

"Yep. I'll be going first."

"Okay, take care."

"En."

The young Yu Yan walked out of the class and saw the young Long Ying who stood while leaning on the wall sulkily. His hair was in mess, clearly the mark of him sleeping in class just now.

"Long Ying," the young Yu Yan greeted loudly.

The young Long Ying raised his head and looked at the young Yu Yan. He clicked his tongue. "Tsk, what are you doing here? Don't tell me you're eavesdropping…ow…ow."

"With how loud the teacher's voice is, do I really need to eavesdrop? Everyone already hear her shouting your name loudly."
