Chapter 4159: Waiting Stubbornly for Lu Yan’s Return (9)

“We’ll avenge our boss...”

“Yeah. We’ll kill the people who killed our boss.”

“And after the revenge?” 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, “You might not believe it, but I’m sure Yan is still alive, and I will wait for her until she comes back... I’ll 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 don’t want to stay here because you’re doubtful of your prospects, you can leave; I won’t stop you and I’ll 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 won’t force you to stay or leave. I have only one goal and that is to protect Yan’s work in her life.”

Hearing his words, everyone began to talk at the same time.

“Mr. Qiao, you’re going to take over the legion?”

“What? You don’t like it?” Qiao Fei sat back down, looking calm.

“No, no. I don’t mean that. But you’re 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 you’ll take over the family in the next year, so you...”

The guy’s meaning was obvious. He tried to say that if Qiao Fei was the chief of the Qiao Family, then he couldn’t 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, “For me, nothing is more important than Yan. I don’t care about the position of family chief... If not for Lu Yan, I wouldn’t 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 can’t return no matter if Lu Yan comes back or not. I don’t like flip-floppers.”

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 Yan’s authorization.

Finally, they dropped to the ground on one knee and swore loyalty to him.

“We’ll serve Mr. Qiao as we served Queen Lu Yan.”

Hearing their allegiance, Qiao Fei nodded in satisfaction.

After the banquet, he returned to Lu Yan’s bedroom.

Who’d imagine that the fear-inducing demon queen was a small princess inside?

Lu Yan’s 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 didn’t want to live like a care-free princess?

But different people had different destinies...

Lu Yan didn’t want to be a killer or a mercenary, but not everyone could choose the path they wanted.

Standing in Lu Yan’s bedroom, Qiao Fei picked up a photo from the bedside stand with tenderness in his eyes.
