Chapter 141 - Get Ready

Two private planes parked next to each other and two powerful men stood below intensely looking at each other. Andrea, Gao Rou, and his security team stayed behind Lu Fang while Xio Hanxi and Kim Han-joon were spotted a few meters away. 

Anton Yeong's arms were crossed against his chest while Lu Fang stood with his chin up high. They were equal in height, but Andrea's brother was built with more muscles. 

Unlike Lu Fang's clean shaved yet striking angular face, Yeong was slightly bearded and had more cheeks just like his sister. One of his brows was scared and his hair was grown up to his nape. 

Both men had been staring at each other for nearly a minute when all of a sudden a sound of a fist against a palm was heard.  Lu Fang managed to block a punch from Yeong. 

Quickly releasing himself from the man's hold, Yeong thrusts both his palms against Lu Fang's chest, making him take a few steps back. Before Lu Fang could compose himself a series of punches were thrown at him making the man move in different directions but, despite his speedy response, Yeong hit him on his temple. He fell down losing his balance. 

The man stood up. He was quick to recover from his fall when he heard the sound of blades clashed against each other. 

Andrea's jaws dropped. His brother just took out his knives, and it made her yell in protest, "Yeong! Don't you dare!"

Lu Fang moved back while removing his jacket. As Yeong advanced, the man used the clothing to distract him by randomly shoving it into his face. When he saw an opportunity, he threw the sleeve portion to one of Yeong's hands wrapping the knife and as he pulled it back quickly; the blade came together and fell on the ground. 

Yeong laughed out of the blue. It was the first time a knife was removed from his hand and by the use of a mere jacket. He took a full turn to prepare the man for his next test and immediately threw the other knife in Andrea's direction. 

Lu Fang's eyes narrowed at the thrown object and ran towards it. He stopped the blade this his hand, holding it fist tight, wounding him in the process. It was a good thing that Andrea was still behind him and he did not have to run that far. 

"Ahhhh!" Andrea screamed. "My, babe."

She rushed towards him, grabbed his jacket and put pressure on his hand to stop the bleeding then she turned to her brother. "Yeong how could you?"

"He did not have to stop the knife. You could have avoided it easily… It was his choice." 

Yeong turned to Lu Fang and said, "Just so you know. I made it easy for you."

The man extended his other hand and replied, "Thank you, brother."

Although he hesitated, still, Yeong shook his hand. He thought, he may not be as good as him yet but with enough training, he can get stronger. At least, he had the instinct to protect Andrea. 

"I like your knives, brother," complimented Lu Fang. "I could tell they were custom made, and you were very proficient in handling them. I'd really like to learn."

Yeong gave a smirk then immediately opened up his jacket to display the knives which surrounded his waist. "They're my babies."

Lu Fang gulped at the sight. 'Yeong liking knives was an understatement', he thought. 

"Glad you have so many... I only have two coming."

"Huh!" Yeong responded with sarcasm. "You'll need to go to Korea for at least a month or two."

"I will make it happen."

If anything, Yeong's weaknesses were his knives and his growing belief in his greatness. On the plane, Lu Fang already had an orientation from Andrea about her brother. 

"He will punch you outright. Make sure to catch it."

"How do you know?"

"He did it with Hanxi."

"Talk about his knives. He loves them."

"Got it!"

"Never tell him he is wrong. That is Li Wen's job."

Before stepping outside the airport, Lu Fang and Gao Rou were formally introduced to Kim Ha-joon. They remembered him to be the same person who helped Andrea with Gabriel's men. 

Xio Hanxi came forward to greet Gao Rou and Lu Fang then gave Andrea a big hug, congratulating her. "Sis, I can't wait to be an uncle!"

She laughed at his eagerness and said, "Well, they are also excited to see you, uncle Hanxi." She turned to her brother and smiled before calling out to him, "and uncle Yeong."

Andrea intended to rub it in as many times as she could so Yeong will not forget his promise of pulverizing The Shadows. Fortunately, she could tell it was working flawlessly. 

Instead of going to the office, they went directly to Lu Fang's mansion where they planned out their defenses to any attack that may occur. The shadows were not the type to prolong their surveillance. Having come here, it meant they had already planned for their assault. 

Lu Wei came later that evening to meet Andrea's brother and to be informed of the current situation. He no longer involved Christina so as not to worry her. 

Two days had passed, Lu Fang and Andrea worked from home. Their security tightened. Yeong, Hanxi, and Han-joon stayed at the mansion together with the couple at all times. Half of each day, Lu Fang had his one on one with Yeong at the gym, just within the mansion. 

When it was finally time for Andrea to have her check-up with Doctor Qi everyone else had to leave the mansion with the couple. They left in two cars, both headed for the clinic. 

Half an hour on the road, Yeong noticed a motorbike seemed to be following them. He remained observant as their drive continued but since he was alone, he dismissed it thinking it was a regular commuter. Besides, there were few other cars on the same road. 

Up ahead, however, there were roadblocks set up because of a traffic accident. Many vehicles turned the other way. A traffic enforcer came to direct their first car to another route. Gao Rou, who was on the same ride called for them to follow. 

Five minutes down the road, Yeong pulled out his gun and said," Get ready. I don't see the other commuters or cars come this way. We were led here on purpose."
