BXBX NOVEL Chapter 289 - 10.30
"You are Long Zhen\'s lover, aren\'t you? Did Long Zhen finally dump you?"
James Grind glared at Huang Shu and looked away. "Master Huang Shu, if you are here only to laugh at my misfortune, just go, leave now."
"How could you be here anyway?"
"Tch, I have a mansion in this mountain region too. Not everything is about Long Zhen," Huang Shu answered.
Huang Shu opened his car door. He approached James Grind and stood in front of him. Huang Shu patted James Grind, who was unresponsive but still looked away arrogantly.
"I know that you feel sad because of Long Zhen. But you must know that he is a mafia lord. He is one step in front of me, and he is always on top. You cannot wish for him to be loyal to only one lover. At least he doesn\'t kill you after he got bored of you," Huang Shu said. He took one step in, about to hug James Grind.
But James Grind adamantly refused, and he retreated one step back, "I don\'t know you," James Grind said.
Huang Shu chuckled amusedly, "You know that I am Huang Shu, Master of Huang family. Do you really not recognize me, or you are just pretending?"
"Whether I know you or not, I would rather not be entangled with you," James Grind refused. "I will wait for another car to hitchhike. Please leave now, Master Huang Shu."
\'JAMIE! JAMES!\' James Grind heard Long Zhen\'s voice not far from his position right now. James Grind\'s face paled when he heard Long Zhen. He felt guilty because the deal between Long Zhen and that old man should be invalid by now, and he also felt embarrassed because he acted like a kid.
Long Zhen never confessed his love for him, so maybe his jealousy was uncalled for. He shouldn\'t be jealous because he meant nothing for Long Zhen in the first place.
Huang Shu saw the fear on James Grind\'s face, and he grinned, "Do you want me to call Long Zhen here? He will definitely catch you."
James Grind\'s already pale face got even paler, and he trembled a little. Which sparked Huang Shu\'s curiosity. "What did he do to you? Did he torture you? Hurt you?"
"No, Master Long Zhen will never hurt me," James Grind denied.
"Then, did you catch him hooking up with another man or woman, and you feel jealous because of that?"
James Grind paused, and then he nodded reluctantly. He lowered his head because he felt ashamed of his own feeling. As an assassin and spy, he shouldn\'t get attached to one guy, but Long Zhen truly opened his heart, and he inevitably fell in love with him.
But James Grind was not a man who would be willing to share. He was an egoist that wanted his lover to be his only. He didn\'t want his lover to kiss, hug, or fuck another man or woman.
And Long Zhen was not one of that kind.
Which was understandable, knowing his standing as mafia overlord. He would have so many men and women lining for him. Maybe James Grind was also one of those people. Maybe he was nothing special to begin…
"JAMIE!" Long Zhen finally saw James Grind quite far from him with a man he couldn\'t determine. James Grind got scared, and he opened the car door. Huang Shu chuckled, and he sat on the driver seat again. Huang Shu stepped on the gas and left Long Zhen eating dust.
"JAMIE, DON\'T GO!" Long Zhen tried to chase, but the car already dashed far from him. Long Zhen could only stare when the black Aston Martin drover further and further from his sight.
Long Zhen clenched his fist. Today, his deal with that old man was to discuss the cooperation between his organization and a more lawful organization, solely to make himself more \'lawful\' and \'abiding\' to the law.
But that old man was still a pervert. In order to persuade him, Long Zhen still had to do this thing despite him hating to touch anyone other than his Jamie.
"It is also my fault because Jamie must have been too shocked. I should have used another way to persuade that old man rather than with this easy way out," Long Zhen said to himself.
"Master Long Zhen!" Long Zhen heard his men following him from behind. They were ready with their arsenal, but what they saw was just their Master alone without James Grind. "Master Long, what should we do next?" the leader asked.
Long Zhen stared at the empty road. He scoffed and said, "My beloved James Grind ran away with a random person with a black Aston Martin. Go and collect the information about everyone in this city, which ones have black Aston Martin, track all of them. If you finally found the man who dares to take away my Jamie… kill him."
"Yes, Master Long!"
\'Jamie… I did this for you. So you better not run away with anyone, or else… I will make sure that guy has his body hacked and stuffed,\' Long Zhen swore in his heart.
***
James Grind and Huang Shu drove across the mountainous road in silence. James Grind glanced at Huang Shu, who didn\'t seem to be bothered at all. "Are you not scared? Long Zhen will surely hunt you down…"
"Scared? Why scared? Just because he is above me in term of power and influence, I still am the second strongest in this country. If he dares to fight me, he will only sacrifice his body for nothing," Huang Shu laughed in response. He patted James Grind\'s head, who had finally resigned to his fate and let Huang Shu patted his heat.
"Your hair feels puffy and nice, very good to touch," Huang Shu commented.
"Master Huang can keep such comment to yourself," James Grind replied nonchalantly. But he became a lot meeker than before because he was inside Huang Shu\'s car. James Grind knew his position, and at least, for now, all he could do was not to piss off Huang Shu.
Huang Shu laughed. James Grind was indeed a good looking young man. In fact, a good look was an understatement. James Grind was gorgeous, and every time he blinked, Huang Shu couldn\'t help but let his heart swayed by such beautiful lashes, beautiful eyes, beautiful lips.
Everything about James Grind was beautiful. It was further magnified because of James Grind\'s nonchalant attitude and his cute temper.
But there was something else that felt mysterious for Huang Shu.
"Mister Assassin, why do I feel like we\'ve met in our previous lifetime? Did I know you before?" Huang Shu asked.
James Grind paused, then he glanced at Huang Shu, who looked genuinely confused. He took a deep, relieved breath and replied, "No, we don\'t know each other."
"Hm… but why does it feel familiar? As if we have known each other for so long," Huang Shu added. This familiar feeling couldn\'t lie even though he had only met James Grind twice.
"Maybe we can discover this later," Huang Shu said.
"There is no later, Master Huang. Thank you for your help, but we are far from Master Long Zhen now. Please drop me, and I will walk to the city," James Grind pointed at the edge of the road.
"Who said you can leave?" Huang Shu grinned maliciously, and he licked his lips. "You are coming with me, Mister Assassin. We are going to have so much fun."
