Meanwhile...
"Just for a woman, you're willing to step into my traps. Tsk tsk..." After hearing Dylan Lu's ridiculing note, the call ended.
"Of course..." Under his breath, Ethan Lu muttered as he lifted his gaze at the abandoned warehouse before him.
Earlier, just as he was rushing to the location Dylan Lu sent, Ethan Lu received a call from Louis Lu. To his surprised, Louis Lu informed him that Lincoln Lu was on the move.
*****
[What transpired an hour and a half ago.]
Driving towards the location, Ethan Lu's phone rang. Answering despite not checking who it might be, Louis Lu's voice came from the earpiece.
"Did something happen?" Without further ado, Louis Lu asked to confirm. After all, he was still unsure if his father's movements tonight involved Ethan Lu.
"Dylan kidnapped Lexi — I'll kill him myself." Not surprised that Louis Lu was asking such a question, Ethan Lu's grip on the steering wheel tightened.
He had been relying on the law and abiding it. Despite what dangers Dylan Lu could bring, Ethan Lu didn't want his kids to have a murderer as a father. Therefore, he tried his best to keep everything legal.
However, right at this moment, Ethan Lu could not care less anymore. If Dylan Lu harmed Lexi... God forbid, he would kill someone tonight.
"My father has unusual activities tonight — head to the location I sent instead. It is most likely that those two had been working together. Dylan wouldn't allow you to save your wife, that maniac just wants to kill you." Louis Lu paused, as an unreadable glint flashed across his eyes. "I'll go to Dylan's... we still have something to settle."
"Alright, thank you." Ethan Lu didn't question anymore as he trusted Louis Lu's deduction. After saying his piece, the call ended and immediately, his phone showed a map to a certain location.
Ethan Lu then called Lyrick Jiang and informed him about the change of their destination.

[Present Time]
"Master, this place is unusually unsecured — our men checked the surroundings, but no one is around." Walking up to Ethan Lu, Lyrick Jiang reported.
"I told you — no one is around." Churu chimed in, staring straight at the abandoned warehouse. "Everyone is inside." She solemnly informed.
Churu has never felt this unsettled for a long time. She has never smelled someone so familiarly dangerous that deserved to be a legend in hell.
Knowing that the people inside the desolate establishment were enemies, Churu expected for the worst. "Ethan, bring all your elite men inside — someone will die and that shouldn't be you or Lexi." She advised.
Lyrick Jiang glanced at Churu's solemn side profile before he pressed his earpiece and commanded all elites shadow guards to be vigilant and remain close to them.
"I know," Without turning his eyes away from the establishment, Ethan Lu pulled out his pistol that was clipped on his back. He already knew that tonight was not any other nights.
Blood would shed and he needed to make sure it wouldn't be him or Lexi. Therefore, for the first time in his life, he held on to his weapon with an intent to kill.

Ethan Lu and his group vigilantly entered the premises. However, as soon as they entered, Lincoln Lu was sitting crossed leg on a chair in the middle of the abandoned warehouse.
By the looks of it, he had expected Ethan Lu's visit. Yet, there was no sign of fear in him.
"Master, what a surprise to have you in here!" Lincoln Lu's words laced with malice as he welcomed Ethan Lu and his company.
Ethan Lu set his eyes on Lincoln Lu's sneering front before his eyes shifted back to what surprised him — and everyone else — upon their arrival.
There, not far away from Lincoln Lu, Lexi was tied up while unconscious. The most dreading part was, they tied a bomb around her. Hence, Ethan Lu and his men could only aim their muzzle at the relaxed Lincoln Lu.
"You..." Suppressing his raging temper, Ethan Lu ground his teeth as he glared daggers at Lincoln Lu.
Just at the sight of Lexi, those bombs around her, Ethan Lu was tempted to shoot Lincoln Lu to death. However, he couldn't — afraid that his wife would blow into pieces.
"Master, please relax. Mrs. Lu will not blow up anytime soon... at least, for the next ten minutes." Lincoln Lu checked his wristwatch as he informed Ethan Lu about Lexi's nearing end.
"Take that away from her now!" Desperate, Ethan Lu raised his pistol and aimed it at Lincoln Lu.
"I'm afraid I can't. Also, please be careful with your toys — you might kill your wife if you pull the trigger accidentally." Raising both his hands, Lincoln Lu warned indifferently.
Meaning to say, if Lincoln Lu died, Lexi would suddenly blow up as well. Just this, Lincoln Lu successfully put a leash around Ethan Lu's neck.
"What do you want?" Slowly, Ethan Lu put his gun down while his fist was trembling out of overwhelming fury and fear.
He couldn't risk anything if Lexi is on the line; Churu as well. She couldn't do anything reckless because she doesn't know how to disarm a bomb.
Sure, Churu could appear in front of Lincoln Lu and intimidate him. However, Churu wasn't a fool as she was well-versed that once Lincoln Lu dropped dead, not just Lexi but everyone inside would die because of the explosion.
"Do you want all my shares? Sure, you can have it all. Just — just leave Lexi out of this." Through his gritted teeth, Ethan Lu's chest heaved up and down heavily.
Despite the anger in his heart, he couldn't let his emotion take control over him. Even if he had to kneel down — kowtow, even — Ethan Lu would do it.
"My nephew, do you think that's enough?" Chuckling at the vulnerable Ethan Lu, Lincoln Lu shook his head sideways. "What do you think I want?" His lips stretched from ear to ear, creating a chilling grin plastered on his face.
"Your life." Lincoln Lu added, leaving the whole surroundings in an utter silence.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
