Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 791 - A tiny bunny



Chapter 791 - A tiny bunny

After Qi Li finished giving the report, Lu Tian went about to inspect what has been completed. There were escape doors in the two spare bedrooms on the first floor, along with another one in the kitchen from what he saw.

The escape doors in the spare bedrooms were designed to be inside the closet. Once opened, one would be directly led outside. Of course, this can only be done by entering a passcode from inside.

As for the one in the kitchen, the escape door is well-blended with the wall adjacent to the back courtyard.

After taking a brief walkthrough, Lu Tian didn't get angry that everything wasn't completed in one day. He had gathered his men at the last minute, and he knows that it will take more than one day to finish everything.

He stares at the massive floor to ceiling window in the living room that had been removed. When he promised his wife a house, he wanted to build one for her, but she chose this house. If he had created one for her instead of the garage she asked for, he would have changed all the windows to bulletproof glass.

Thinking this thought, he stares from outside the window into the house. The reason why this window is removed is that he's having it replaced with bulletproof glass. It hasn't been reinstalled because it's in the process of being tinted to reduce visibility into their home.

Lu Tian glances down at the watch on his hand, and seeing that it was thirty minutes till five, he turns away from the window. Once he makes his way to check on how everyone is doing with their current tasks, he can go to his wife.

Since he didn't tell her anything and she didn't ask, she probably has millions of questions thought up about the situation.

"Boss, what should we do about this room?"

Jiangyu calls out when he saw his boss walking towards him. He was no longer on the excavator but stood in front of a foldable table with multiple blueprints of the house laid out.

Hearing his subordinate's words, Lu Tian walks over to take a look. He walked around the table and stood next to Jiangyu before lowering his head.

"This room. You've circled and added the necessary things, but this is the only room left untouched."

Jiangyu points to a specific part of the house's blueprint. He and Yiqing had done a brief walkthrough inside the house to see if the things their boss wanted could be done.

However, curious as to why this room is left out, he couldn't help but ask. It was also in case his boss might have forgotten about the room.

Lu Tian didn't need to think of an answer for Jiangyu's words. He stares down at the blueprint then looks up at the window where the room is on the house.

"It is my wife's room. She'll be the one to decide on what to do with it."

This room, to be precise, is her closet room.

Some people who heard him might have thought he was referring to this room as the room his wife sleeps in, but that is not it. Never in a million years will he allow her to sleep in another room without him. Even if one day came and got into a big fight, he will forever sleep where she is sleeping.

As this thought crossed his mind, Lu Tian quickly discards it. He smacks it away like it was an annoying fly buzzing around for trouble.

He looks down at the blueprint again and points at the same room on paper.

"This room, make sure no one goes near it unless I give permission."

Just as Lu Tian's words fell, Lin Hui walks past the table, but his shirtless body stops in his tracks. He ignores what he was on his way to do and skips over. He stood across the table from the boss and subordinate with his back turned to the house.

His arms that were tattooed with roses reach forward and place his palms on the table. He stares down at the blueprints laid out, then his head tilts a little to the side, and like he saw something that aroused his curiosity, he chuckles.

"Funny…"

Jiangyu jumped when he heard Lin Hui. He looks at the man and frowns as he didn't see or hear the man approach the table at all. He had to admit, the roses tattooed on the upper half of Lin Hui's arms gave him (Lin Hui) a dangerous bad boy appearance.

However, thinking about Lin Hui's words, his (Jiangyu) facial expression scrunch together more, and his mouth curls upside-down like he had smelt something foul.

"What did you just say?"

His eyes darken dangerously at the little man like they were enemies meeting on a narrow road. He didn't forget to sneak a flex of his muscles like he was trying to scare Lin Hui.

"Are you indicating that my boss's proposal is a waste of time? Is that why you think all this is funny?"

He and Lin Hui have worked a few cases together since their bosses are in a relationship. However, that doesn't mean he will let anyone look down on his boss. Even if the person is one of his lady boss's people.

Lin Hui was struck dumbfounded by Jiangyu's assumption. He lifts his head to look at the man and straightens his posture.

His left arm raises, and he scratches the side of his head. As he did this, he also didn't forget to flex the muscles on his arm. He then crosses both his arms over his chest, and with a raised of his chin, he stares right back at the bulky man.

Although his height and body structure were inferior to Jiangyu, he wasn't the least bit intimidated at all. He stood his ground without backing down and took the stance of a fearless warrior.

"Why the attitude? All I said was, this is funny."

Of course, his courageous appearance was all in his head.

Gui Tian Lan stood not too far from the table as he was about to grab a bottle of water to drink. When he heard the short conversation between Lin Hui and Jiangyu, he turns his head to look at them.

From his perspective, Jiangyu looked like a fearsome lion while Lin Hui looked like a tiny bunny instead of a warrior.

However, if one were to look at the two men, they would think this was some kind of bodybuilding contest between them.

He shakes his head and picks up the bottle of water before walking away.

"What an idiot."

Hearing the tailor's words, Lu Tian, who hadn't said a word to stop Jiangyu and Lin Hui, glances at Gui Tian Lan. Before the man (Gui Tian Lan) could turn away, he (Lu Tian) could vaguely make out the tattoo on the front of Gui Tian Lan's left chest.

It was a shattered pocket watch with roses.

If one did not know, they would undoubtedly question the reason for a tattoo like that, but he already knew the answer to it.

The watch marked the time Gui Tian Lan's girlfriend died, and it is a reminder that even in death, she will be in his heart.

As the tailor walks away, Lu Tian slightly arches a brow when he saw that the left shoulder-blade and arm of Gui Tian Lan was tattooed with one single wing. He felt he saw that tattoo on someone else too.

Just as he thought this, he shifts his gaze to the person in mind. He spots Gui Zhongmin working on a task with Huan Min and Shaofeng. The young man also had the same wing tattoo as Gui Tian Lan, but on the right side.

He doesn't dwell on this thought for too long and turns his attention to Lin Hui, who stood across the table.

"What do you find funny?"

He didn't think the man was being disrespectful at all. Preferably, he wants to hear what Lin Hui has to say. He needed to know if Lin Hui saw something that he might have missed when working on the blueprints.

Lin Hui was in the middle of a staring contest with Jiangyu, but when he heard Lu Tian speaking to him, he ignores the bulky man and looks at the boss.

However, unlike the time he could stare into Jiangyu's eyes, when he saw Lu Tian's dark eyes stare at him, he felt a chill run down his spine.

He swore it was like the aloof man was staring into the depths of his soul.

"Ah, about that… heh… heh…"

He swallows his difficulty as if he had suddenly at a rock. He forces a sarcastic chuckle between pauses and scratched his head. This time, he doesn't bother to flex his muscles.

"There's nothing wrong with the blueprints. I only said it was funny because I thought about something that happened in the past, and that's why I said what I said."
