"What's the real reason you called?"
"Hey, stop being so cold. I personally think it's time for you to loosen up a bit."
"Sigh… this boring little… okay, I'm saying it! Big bro wanted to speak with you about something important, so he asked me to make sure that you come tonight."
"If I don't?"
"Hey, my brother will kill me if…"
"I don't care."
"Heh, so you're saying that you won't come huh, little Chen? You want me to come over personally to your not-so-secret haven? You don't want to learn the tricks of seduction 101 that my dearest wife prepared for you?"
"Don't be late. Also, bring those two with you, okay? Bye bye."
Upon the call ending, Yu Chen let a deep sigh go, but then the corner of his lips lifted a little.
Back in his teenage years, Yu Chen once had an obsession with a certain mysterious hacker with a codename 'Monster'. He was so fascinated with that hacker's ability that he regarded him as the god of all hackers and he wanted him. He wanted to get him on his side even though he knew that the hacker was an in international threat; a terrorist at that time. He even went all the way to a war torn country just to find him. But the day his men was able to find him, Yu Chen's men were annihilated by that hacker's so called knight. That knight was insanely strong that Kyuu and Juu were the only ones left standing before him.
That day, because some government troops were pursuing the hacker and his knight, Yu Chen, along with Juu and Kyuu were mistakenly regarded as their ally. Thus, before he knew it, Yu Chen found himself fleeing along with them.
What happened after that was history and the times he spent with the two of them was an experience he would never forget. As the youngest in the group, Yu Chen was called by the two of them as 'little Chen' or 'little devil', and they were still calling him that up to this day.
Recalling the past, Yu Chen couldn't help but smile. He would never have thought that those two, who were once the world's most wanted terrorists, would now be living as a normal human beings. The hacker was now a chairman and CEO of a business empire and his knight was now a president. They even had their own families now.
"Are we going tonight?" a soft voice then rang from behind and Yu Chen turned. He leaned on the window as he looked at the man who was sitting on the floor, holding his cellphone in playing position.
"Yes, we're going." Yu Chen replied and the Juu's eyes circled.
"We?" he asked and when Yu Chen nodded, the man smiled in excitement.
Sometime later, Yu Chen was sitting quietly in the living room, checking some documents Gu Jinyang sent to his tablet, when Gu Wei approached him, dragging Guan Ye with him.
"Uhm… boss, about that love guru you wanted to meet, uhm actually, there's a little problem." Gu Wei sounded like he was some spy who had returned to report to the king that he had failed his mission.
"Problem?" Yu Chen repeated as he finally lifted his glorious stone-cold face and looked at him.
"Er… actually, that lady is a wife of someone as scary as you. I don't think I could manage to get near her, unless of course if you lend me Juu and Kyuu, hehe." Hearing Gu Wei's statement, Yu Chen's eyes slightly narrowed. He always knew about Gu Wei's fearlessness. He was someone who wasn't even scared of death and there were only two people that scared him, Yu Chen himself and that man who almost beat him to death many years ago.
"That love guru is actually today's most famous author and is the bride in that wedding you attended a month ago. S-she's the wife of the Red Empire's president… Hinari Chen," he added. He looked at his boss in anticipation, waiting for his reply.
However, Yu Chen looked like he wasn't even surprised at all, so Gu Wei was about to speak again when suddenly, someone's voice stopped him from asking.
"Are… you… talking about Hinari-sensei?" The three men all snapped at the source of the sound and when they saw Luo Xiaolei walking towards them, Gu Wei gulped. He scratched his hair as he answered her with an awkward smile.
"Uhm… yes. That author is so great. I love her books hehe." Gu Wei quickly replied when to his surprise, Luo Xiaolei suddenly turned ecstatic as she moved closer to Gu Wei.
"Really? Wow! I didn't know you like her too! She's my favorite author and I love her.!" In an instant, Luo Xiaolei had completely turn into a fan girl and she immediately started talking to Gu Wei as though she had finally found someone that had the same interest as her.
Gu Wei on the other hand was so overwhelmed as he tried his very best to reply Luo Xiaolei's questions about his favorite book and everything. However, as seconds ticked by, big sweat drops were starting to flow on his forehead and back. Well, the longer Luo Xiaolei talked to him with such great interest, the heavier the pressure that was pointed at him became that he even started feeling chills in his skin.
OMG boss, don't stare at me like that. Why don't you interrupt us if you don't like me talking with your wife? All I am doing is answering her right now! This is basically a question and answer session, an interview, so please don't look at me like you're gonna kill me after this! This is pure business. I was just a foot soldier answering the queen's question! I can't possibly make her stop or ignore her okay?! You should be the one intervening right now to get your wife's attention, you stone, rather than sending me chilling pressures like this! T^T
While Gu Wei was already crying without tears, Luo Xiaolei didn't stop asking.
"Her latest book is really lovely as well, have you read it?" she asked and finally, Gu Wei seemed to have reached his limit.
He suddenly turned towards Yu Chen who was still sitting before them like a sculpture staring at them and he spoke.
"Actually, boss right here is a much bigger fan of hers than I." he said and Luo Xiaolei's jaws slowly dropped in disbelief.
"Eh? What?" she sounded like she couldn't believe what Gu Wei just said at all so Gu Wei quickly moved towards Yu Chen.
"It's true, really. Actually, he was even trying to meet her to ask for some advi… I mean autograph. Right boss? Right?" Gu Wei's eyes were pleading and desperate as he looked at Yu Chen. C'mon boss, please, don't be so cruel to this great historian and just say yes!
But the stone didn't even move or uttered a sound.
Gu Wei was now ready to cry because of Yu Chen's hopeless cooperation, when suddenly, unexpectedly, he finally spoke.
"Do you want to meet her in person?" he asked, looking intently at Luo Xiaolei.
"Of course! Hinari-sensei rarely holds a fan signing event and she rarely shows up to any events as well. I never had the chance to even see her in person at all so…"
"I'm going to attend a private event tonight and she will be there. If you like, you can come with me."
The instant Luo Xiaolei heard Yu Chen's invitation, she jumped on him.
"I will, I will. Please let me come with you, big boss!"
