Chapter 106 - Sly Trick

Lu Fang brushed up Andrea's hear and wiped off the sweat on her forehead with his hands. Before suggesting to loosen her hold on him, he gave her a peck on the cheek.

"Are you okay, babe?" He asked.

She nodded, "I'm fine… Just upset."

Turning to her supposed brother , she tried to reason with him, "Gabriel, go home now before I tell dad about this… Your men are down and you are completely surrounded."

"It's okay, babe. I'll deal with him."

Andrea's eyebrows rose as the man walked towards Gabriel while taking off his suit and rolling up his sleeves. 'Is he planning to fight him?'

"You want to beat me up? Is that right, Gabriel? Why? Because you want to take Andy back? I'm afraid that is not happening... You seem to be forgetting that this is China."

"You don't deserve Andy!" Gabriel declared. "You are a simple businessman who hides behind the strength of your men."

The man became amused.

"And you are a better fit? Hmmm…" The man grinned sarcastically. "I'd never do anything to hurt Andy, at least to the same degree as you have."

He may not admit to it, but the man's words got to Gabriel, hitting him where it hurt the most.

"Strength? You may be excellent as a fighter, but a man's strength is measured here… and here." With his finger, he pointed to his head before clenching his hands to a fist, placing it on to his left chest.

Lu Fang began warming up, rotating his head and stretching his arms before saying, "I'll make you a deal, Gabriel. If you beat me, I will let you take Andrea."

Andrea's jaw dropped hearing this. 'Is he crazy?'

"Lu Fang!" She protested.

The man gazed at her and winked, "trust me, babe. I know what I am doing."

He turned back to Gabriel and resumed his bargaining. "However, if I make you fall and you are unable to get up in 5 seconds, you need to swear… Swear that you will fight fair and square. You are not to force anyone against their will… like taking Andy with you. "

"Unlike you, I would never pressure Andy against her will. If you re-establish your friendship and she will eventually decide to leave me for you, I will willingly give her freedom… Because I want her to be happy. That is how much I love her."

Andrea's face could no longer be painted. Her frown was beyond compare. She could not believe Lu Fang would give her away. 'Just what is he thinking?'

Seeing her flustered face, Gao Rou came up to Andrea, "relax, will you? My brother is armed and dangerous."

"Your dad is already on his way to deal with your…" Gao Rou's brows drew together, unsure of what to call Gabriel. "Your brother?"

"I see Lu Fang has briefed you well." She said.

"Although it will be a thirteen-hour flight, at least Mr. Davies is coming over."

Andrea was shaking her head. Still in disbelief that Gabriel would go to this extent. She felt something did not add up with his actions.

The two men were now facing each other walking sideways in circles, already in defense mode.

"You set the rules, Gabriel." The man suggested, "so there are no regrets from your side. You set the rules."

"No help from your men!"

"Agree."

"Andy won't fight on your behalf."

"I won't dare let her."

"No weapons."

Lu Fang raised his hands indicating, he doesn't have any. "Shall we?"

Gabriel smirked in acknowledgment. He thought, 'How idiotic for him to agree on such terms.'

Without warning, he thrust his fists towards Lu Fang's face but was quickly caught by a hand. In a wink, he felt a foot push forcefully against his chest throwing him a meter across.

His face fumed as he turned to the Lu Fang. He was quick to recover and got up on his feet before dashing forward throwing steady punches, Lu Fang was quick to dodge and block his attacks.

'This is not good. He knows how to fight! Nowhere, does his records indicate he studied martial arts!'

Before coming down to China, he had already asked his men to look into the profile of the new CEO of Lu-Wei Enterprises. He wanted to be prepared in facing his rival. Unfortunately for him, Lu Fang learned how to fight in private and Lu Wei made it a point not to include it in his son's records. As a result, the first group of assassins who threatened Lu Fang's life underestimated him and Gabriel did the same.

Not only that, Lu Fang was Gao Rou's boxing partner for most of his practices while still actively fighting in the ring. Consequently, he knew how to make the right punches and make it count.

Andrea seemed star-struck to see her man in action. Her eyes twinkled with adoration occasionally biting her lip. His shirt now hugging his body and to her, the man looked incredibly hot. 'Dammit!'

Gao Rou who happen to see her reaction let out a sigh and said, "Oh, please. Andrea, wait till you get home!"

She glared at him thinking, 'was I that obvious?'

Returning her eyes to two, she saw Gabriel suddenly had an opening. "Don't you dare bruise my husband's face or you will face my wrath!"

Gabriel was distracted then unexpectedly, he saw a fist coming right at him.

POW!

Lu Fang managed to hit him in the nose, making him bleed outright.

"That was not part of the rules!" Complained Gabriel.

"What rules? You were the one who created the rules! You said Andy was not to fight! She merely screamed at you!"

"F**ck!" cursed Gabriel.

Out of the blue, Lu Fang attention's went past Gabriel and said, "Finally, Mr. Davies!"

Gabriel's eyes almost popped out and turn his gaze behind him. In a flash, Lu Fang bent down, swung his leg, aiming at the feet, putting his opponent out of balance.

THUD!

"You –"

"Ahhhhhhhh! F**k! F**k!"

Lu Fang smashed his foot into his groin area not once but twice! He made sure to give it all he got before turning to Andrea, "Babe, countdown please."

Gabriel was beyond annoyed, he had fought side by side with Andrea in missions. Never had he had an opponent who would use such a sly trick as hitting on one's balls.

"Five, four, three, two, one!" She immediately jumped at him, encircling her arms around his neck and began kissing the man.

"Babe, you are wise, indeed!"

"Hmmm…"

"Ahh… Here we go again." Gao Rou averted his gaze from the couple, signaled his team to apprehend Gabriel and his men.
