"You're working for that loose woman?"
If Nie Chen dares to lay a hand on his boss, he will not hesitate to retaliate .
Hearing the question, Nie Chen scoffs like it was biggest joke he had heard . He folds his arms over his chest and gives Lin Hui a side stare .
"Really? You really think I would work for someone like her? I rather die than work for someone like her . "
Yue Ling doesn't say a word but stares at Nie Chen like she was reading him . She has known him way longer than any of her other subordinates, including Liu Shan .
He lost his mother to cancer when he was young and lived with his father in Fate . However, the same day she lost her parents, he too lost his father, who was the chauffer .
From young until now, he was one of the most loyal members of Fate . When she withdrew Fate from the underworld, like Uncle Zhi, he decided to leave to start his own journey . He told her that no matter where he goes, if she ever needed his help, all she had to do was ask .
However, ever since they parted ways, she only heard a few things about him, and never bothered to check up on him . It wasn't that she did care about those who left, she just didn't want to put their new lives in danger .
Oblivious to Yue Ling's inner thoughts about him, Nie Chen did not hide anything from her or the others .
He goes on to tell them about the deal Ning Mei had to offer him . From start to end, he did not leave anything out at all . He even went so far as to tell about what he's been doing ever since he left Fate and the things Wei Hongyi asked him to do .
"And then, she left after giving me the names of my targets . I mean, how can such a stupid woman exist . How can she want something that is out of her reach?"

Yue Ling listened until he was done . She looks at him for a long second, then her brows crease .
"So, this entire time you've been working for that scumbag, Wei Hongyi too?"
It wasn't Yue Ling who spoke, but Liu Shan . The assistant stares at Nie Chen with a perplex expression and spat his words in a low growl .
"Did he ever order you to hit Zhao Ya'Er?"
This time, it was Yue Ling who spoke before the assistant could . Her soft angelic voice was extremely dangerous like it could kill at this moment .
Not only Nie Chen, but even Liu Shan and Lin Hui were shocked by her question . Neither Liu Shan nor Lin Hui has heard anything about Zhao Ya'Er being abused . If Nie Chen used to work under Wei Hongyi for money, then could it be that…
"Hey, I may kill for a little cash on the side, but I swear on my life, I never once hit an innocent woman . "
Nie Chen did not hesitate to answer . His spine straightens and his righthand raise with three fingers pointing to the heavens above .
"I, Nie Chen, swore to the heavens, if I ever hit an innocent woman, I will be strike by lightning and die a slow painful death . "
Seeing his expression and words full of seriousness, both Liu Shan and Lin Hui were dumbfounded . The assistant lowers his head and slowly shakes it .
"Nie Chen, you're going to be strike by lightning . "

Struck flabbergasted by the man, Nie Chen was in disbelief . His head turns to look at Liu Shan and his nostril flares .
"After three years and that is what you have to say to me? How rude!"
"But it's true . "
From the other side of Nie Chen, Lin Hui cuts in with a serious look .
"You swore on your life that you never hit an innocent woman, but you just attacked boss who is an innocent woman . "
"…"
Now it was Nie Chen's turn to be dumbfounded at what he was hearing . His head turns from side to side at the two men then he points in the direction of Yue Ling .
"What innocent woman? She is as strong as any man out there in the world . I should be the innocent woman . "
"…"
Yue Ling never once intervene in the conversation . However, she had to admit, Nie Chen is right .
She was born a woman, but after her parents left this world, she was raised no different from a life of the opposite gender . However, she had it much harder because she is a woman .
Which was the reason why she trained and studied hard every day . She made sure that even though she looked weak and fragile in the eyes of others, her strength and knowledge were never inferior to anyone else's .

Oblivious to her thoughts about his words, Nie Chen moves his hand pointing at her . He scratches the back of his head and chuckles .
"Boss, do you have any food? This subordinate is hungry . "
Yue Ling returned to her senses and glance at the man . Thinking about something, she shrugs her shoulder and leans back on the couch .
"There's food here, but you should probably go ask your 'boss' . "
Nie Chen was at a loss for words . He stares at her with heavy eyes . However, only for a quick second as he stood up and puts both his fist on his hip .
"I only do it for the money in order to survive this corrupted world we call Earth . No matter where I go or who pays me, I will forever be a loyal member of Fate and you, Han Yue Ling will always be my boss . "
His words fell and he quickly walks away to the kitchen . He was afraid Yue Ling might stop him from eating as he was really hungry . However, everything he said was the truth .
He may have left Fate to seek his own path, but no matter where he went and who he worked for, his home is where Fate is .
There were even times when he would be captured by those from the underworld who holds a grudge against Fate . They would threaten him for information about Fate and Yue Ling's identity, but he never once gave in and escaped .
He had cheated death too many times, but he would rather die than betray his only family and home .
Yue Ling watched the man disappear into the kitchen . A faint smile curls on her lip as she felt it was nice to see him again . Out of all her subordinates, Nie Chen was the most shameless and careless one . Not only that, he was never afraid to pick a fight with her .
If he wanted to come back to Fate, she would welcome him with open arms as the door was never closed for him .
She sighs inside then looks back at the couch across from her . Seeing that Liu Shan and Lin Hui were still stuck in a daze, she clears her throat .
"Ahem . "
Both Liu Shan and Lin Hui jumped up in surprise . It was as if their lost souls had suddenly returned to their body . Two pairs of eyes blink at the same time . However, it was not Nie Chen, who they were looking at but at each other .
Liu Shan's cheeks flush red in embarrassment and he looks away to his boss . At the same time, Lin Hui's ears turned red and he too looks in the same direction .
Shaking her head, Yue Ling fold her arms over her chest as her right leg cross over her left .
"Why wasn't I informed of Nie Chen��s arrival?"
Lin Hui part his lip to answer, but not knowing what to say, he gives Liu Shan a side glance . He sends a look as if saying, 'You're her assistant . You tell her . '
Left with no other choice, Liu Shan glares at the man before heaving a long sigh . He quickly puts on a stern expression and straighten his shoulders .
However, met with Yue Ling's eyes that can see straight into a person's soul, a crooked smile appears on his face then a chuckle .
"Heh . Heh . You see, we said we had something to report, but we didn't think the report would get here before us . "
From the side, Lin Hui kept his mouth shut, but his head nod in agreeing to the answer .
