"Fast death is unfair to a traitor!"
One sentence that came out of the mouth of the mafia made the whole room freeze with wide eyes. Especially the first time Yellow saw the Uncle burning fire of anger in plain sight against someone who was considered a traitor.
All this time he only heard and heard from his Father and Mother if Uncle Michael was never able to forgive a traitor whatever the reason they made that mistake.
A traitor is a traitor! That is the symbol of the greatness of a Michael Xavier leading a clan that has been hereditary until now in the grasp of the Uncle.
Only, this time the one who mentioned himself as a traitor was Xiaoli Chen. A bodyguard he knows well enough. He even celebrated when the bodyguard had a birthday.
While Jio, although the response looks relaxed, and only the eyeballs are moving, but in his mind he hopes the Daddy still has a heart. Because Jio is worried about the fate of the twin brother who just first felt in love.
Frustration is not an easy thing to conquer by some people.
Taking a deep breath, and holding him full of guilt, Xiaoli certainly did not dare to look into the mafia's pair of eyes that sprinkled coals of aoi though invisible.
Michael slowly approached Xiaoli Chen who was still resting on the floor with fear, also relieved to dare to be honest for the oath he had once said.
The slow step taken by the mafia is a cold step that makes the vast central space feel frozen. No one knew what he was going to do, and no one knew what sort of fate Xiaoli Chen had for the next hour.
Is she still alive?
Or even stay the name, to untangle the tears of the lover who is currently seeking help on the Mother who is out there.
The sound of the expensive shoes of the great Lord that tread the floor, like a matter of seconds to seconds for the life of the young man to be uprooted from his body. The closer the sound of a step, then bad luck is definitely closer to the bodyguard.
' Jia's... If I die at the hands of your father who is none other than the great Master to me, know that I am doing this all for our honesty. For the sake of me who no longer wants to be a traitor in the Clan that has been where my father has been for decades to support me and my mother and my sister... '
' Bao Bao's.... Ilove you... Maybe the world does not give us a place to be together... '
' If I die today, from the sky... I will pray that you find a better figure than myself who is just the loser behind the nickname of the main bodyguard! Although maybe I won't be able to see you happy by a man other than me... '
' I love you, Bao Bao... '
Word by word of farewell he delivered softly in his heart to the woman he loved the most after the Mother. Where she is the only girl who managed to overturn her heart after she first came out of the temple that had raised her name in the country nicknamed the land of bamboo curtains.
' Father...Mothers... I'm sorry I had to go home for treason. And I'm sorry... If the one who comes home later is just a body without my life... I love you guys... '
One sentence for the two parents who had taken care of him since childhood, before he was finally sent to the temple when he was a child to become the successor of the Father as the bodyguard of the Klan trust.
Until Xiaoli who looked down respectfully with a thumping heart began to see the tip of the Mafia's shoe stop exactly two steps in front of her.
And it makes anyone's heart beat faster. Waiting for what will happen after this.
Staring coldly, the mobster asked, "Didn't you think before deciding on all that?" hiss the mafia with an emotional face that he is still trying to hold for now.
"I'm sorry, Sir!" xiaoli said she prefers to apologize. "I know it's wrong, I know I've been stupid to choose to hide from the sight of the Great Lord and the family, as well as all the troops of the Black Hold Clan" he said firmly and seriously.
"I realized I was insolent by loving someone I shouldn't have reached." he said seriously.
"I wanted to confess to the Great Master from the beginning, but I also wanted to keep the feeling of the young Miss who forbade me to be honest, because..."
"Because what?"
"For fear of being punished like any other traitor."
Smiling cynically, "Don't bring my daughter's name to make up the reason why you chose to lie and betray me!" hiss the mafia stared coldly at Xiaoli. "She had just returned home from the temple after spending seven years of her teenage years there. He's never been in love!" continue the Mafia.
"I know, Sir! I do not intend to seek refuge in the young Miss. I am just presenting the reality. I can't hurt a young Miss physically or heart even if it's just a fingernail!" xiaoli said seriously.
Smiling obliquely half cynically, "You know that and you're still doing that?" asked the great master with an aura like a hungry lion.
"Whatever punishment the great Lord gives me will be received" Xiaoli said, venturing to raise her head, looking reverently at the great Lord who was looking at her fiercely and hatefully.
Smiling sarcastically, "You have no right to fight me if you're guilty!" michael's hiss with a deflated chest in anger. "Look!" michael pointed to Jack and Dimitri sitting side by side.
"They are my main bodyguards! He's been with me since they weren't far from your age! And they're still loyal to me without betraying me!" said Michael withstanding the disappointed rumble inside his chest.
"And you!" hiss Michael squeaked sharply. "You're upset and I believe I will be a companion for my son to continue my kingdom!" michael shouted releasing all the disappointment that ruled his chest.
"But what did you do before it all happened?" asked Michael lowering the octave, without diminishing his angry expression.
Xiaoli lowered her head while closing her eyes deeply. Really, he had never committed treason against his clan nor his Great Lord. In his heart he was ready to submit to the great Lord ever since he was sworn in such a way.
But one mistake that was missed, making it look like a patient who is ready to be shot dead, or even tortured first.
Xiaoli lowered her head deeper, blaming God's love destiny for her. Why love should be anchored to a girl who from the beginning can be sure it will be difficult for her to reach the blessing of her family.
Why should you fall for a girl who is the only daughter of her Master?
Xiaoli took off the black leather jacket she was wearing, taking out all the weapons she always carried everywhere. Glock-type pistol, some small knives tucked in specially designed pockets. In addition, Xiaoli also took out some shuriken from the outer jacket pocket.
A typical Japanese weapon that is quite useful when the emergency is always taken everywhere, and always in the outer pocket.
He put all the front of his body one by one. It was lined up neatly on the floor.
"I have no more weapons than my limbs, sir." Xiaoli said. "Please Lord want to punish me in any way. I would not mind if you kill me using these weapons that I have." he said.
Terribly pilu... Love..who doesn't want to feel it?
But not everyone can be as lucky as Jio who can have a lover very easily to be able to get the blessing of their parents.
Xiaoli looked so pitiful and weak. Really, this was not the usual Xiaoli Chen. The man was never willing to submit to anyone other than the person he deserved to obey.
Jellow saw all that. Yellow, the man who was famous as a young womanizer could see how sincerely Xiaoli Chen loved her cousin. How Xiaoli was willing to die for the sake of admitting a mistake.
"Stand up!" hiss Michael after taking off a long breath.
Not waiting for long, the bodyguard immediately stood upright facing the Mafia.
"Fight me!" said Michael. "If you manage to make me paralyzed, I'll give up my daughter for you to marry!" michael said firmly.
Michael's sentence makes the entire room hold their breath with each heart beating faster, up to four spectators reflexively standing from their respective couches. Everyone knows, if a Michael Xavier never mess with his sentence.
"Remember! You can take my daughter, if you manage to make me paralyzed!" michael pressed the last word he said.
Xiaoli opened her eyes wide, unable to believe what the boss said. His mouth was open to talk, but it was really hard to say even a single word.
"Ta.ta.but..." Xiaoli stuttered between irregular breaths. "Ma.ma..where...maybe sa...I can do that, Mister?" xiaoli said with her chest moving up and down so quickly that her legs felt so limp.
Michael smiled slantingly, staring with a sneer, "You think I'm accepting rejections or offers?" hiss the Mafia.
"But I won't be able to fight against the Great Lord!" xiaoli replied staring in disbelief at Michael, the only person she could not possibly fight for.
"Then you die!" sahut Michael with fingers that grip tightly. "You're just talking to me, if you don't dare to fight for it!" hiss the Mafia.
