My Youth Began With Him-Webnovel
âWeâll avenge our bossâ¦â
âYeah. Weâll kill the people who killed our boss.â
âAnd after the revenge?â Qiao Fei asked in a measured pace.
They fell silent again.
Seeing they were at a loss for words, Qiao Fei stood up slowly with his hands pressing on the table.
Glancing around them with cool eyes, he said, âYou might not believe it, but Iâm sure Yan is still alive, and I will wait for her until she comes back⦠Iâll wait for her until the end of my life. Before she comes back, everyone must obey my orders just as you did with Yan. Your pay will remain the same⦠Of course, if you donât want to stay here because youâre doubtful of your prospects, you can leave; I wonât stop you and Iâll even give you a retirement bonus⦠But you know, you have made many enemies in the past years and no one will protect you if you leave. To stay or to leave, the decision is in your hands. I wonât force you to stay or leave. I have only one goal and that is to protect Yanâs work in her life.â
Hearing his words, everyone began to talk at the same time.
âMr. Qiao, youâre going to take over the legion?â
âWhat? You donât like it?â Qiao Fei sat back down, looking calm.
âNo, no. I donât mean that. But youâre from the Qiao Family⦠We heard that your eldest brother Qiao Mo cut himself off from the family; your second eldest brother Qiao Nan disappeared mysteriously in Thailand⦠We heard rumors saying that youâll take over the family in the next year, so youâ¦â
The guyâs meaning was obvious. He tried to say that if Qiao Fei was the chief of the Qiao Family, then he couldnât take over the legion at the same time. It was against the unwritten rules of their world.
Of course, Qiao Fei understood his meaning. He chuckled and said, âFor me, nothing is more important than Yan. I donât care about the position of family chief⦠If not for Lu Yan, I wouldnât have had interest in your legion. But I must protect my woman. As I said, you can choose to stay or leave, but the people choosing to leave canât return no matter if Lu Yan comes back or not. I donât like flip-floppers.â
The dozen or so people sitting at the table exchanged a look.
They were not stupid, knowing Qiao Fei must be a powerful man since he could get Lu Yanâs authorization.
Finally, they dropped to the ground on one knee and swore loyalty to him.
âWeâll serve Mr. Qiao as we served Queen Lu Yan.â
Hearing their allegiance, Qiao Fei nodded in satisfaction.
After the banquet, he returned to Lu Yanâs bedroom.
Whoâd imagine that the fear-inducing demon queen was a small princess inside?
Lu Yanâs bedroom was a pink princess room looking super dreamy.
Everything was pale pink, including the Hello Kitty dolls.
The potted plants on the windowsill were adorable. Obviously, they were nurtured carefully.
The small daisies looked especially cute in the setting sun.
Which girl didnât want to live like a care-free princess?
But different people had different destiniesâ¦
Lu Yan didnât want to be a killer or a mercenary, but not everyone could choose the path they wanted.
Standing in Lu Yanâs bedroom, Qiao Fei picked up a photo from the bedside stand with tenderness in his eyes.
