Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Near the bustling nightlife of the underworld in Imperial, all the delinquents from different gangs gathered together as each person indulge themselves with women, alcohol, and drugs. No one bothered to pay any attention to a certain area near the mountains as it had long been forgotten.

However, if they had, they would have realized that the small abandoned area was occupied by three men.

In that area, all that stood in place was a shabby and rundown factory. Half of it had been destroyed to the ground due to its lack of structure since it has been out of business.

Inside the factory, it was dimly lit thanks to the propane lanterns that had been set up on the tables and a few that hung on the wall.

Sitting near an open window, a young man held his chin and stares out to the rain as he would sigh every few seconds.

"Still feeling resentful about earlier?"

From behind Song Jing Li, Kira walks up to the where the boy was. He sits down on the empty chair to the left and looks out the window too.

"You can't stay angry forever. Jun has his reasons and we both understand that reason."

Song Jing Li remained unfazed like the long hair man was not there. He kept his eyes on the rain like he was counting each raindrop.

However, he couldn't help but think back to the scene when he saw Yue Ling entering the car with Lu Tian.

His eyes turned moist and his entire being turns into that of a child whose mother had remarried and forgot all about him.

"But why him…"

Hearing his incoherent mumble, Kira turn his head to look at his young friend. He wasn't sure if he had heard correctly, so he decides to ask.

"Why what?"

Song Jing Li curls his fingers and clench his hands. His eyes were still moist, as the rims of his eyes turn red. He turns his head and locks eyes with Kira.

"Why Lu Tian? Out of all the men in the world, why did she have to choose him?"

Kira was a little stunned to see the young man lash out at him like this. However, considering his (Song Jing Li) feelings, he (Kira) can only sigh inside because he understands where to the boy is coming from.

They might have never met Lu Tian in the past, but they've heard plenty of stories about the man. He is a very dangerous man. Far dangerous than any person they've ever encountered.

However, who are they to decide who Yue Ling should and shouldn't be with.

"It's her decision to decide who she wants to be with."

Hearing these words, Song Jing Li clench his teeth together. When he first heard the news about Yue Ling and Lu Tian's relationship, he tried to cope with it, but no matter how much he tried, he just couldn't.

Not wanting to listen to Kira's excuses anymore, he abruptly stood up and his eyes flash with a murderous light.

"Then what about Shin? It's only been three years since hyun left this world. How can she move on already?"

Kira stares up at Song Jing Li and he sighs inside again. He part his lips to answer the boy, but before he could make a sound, Song Jing Li had already stormed away with anger written on his face.

He sighs heavily and shakes his head. Reaching for a cigarette in his pocket, he decides to calm his mind. As he lit the end, he turns back to look at the rain outside.

As the youngest member in the team, Song Jing Li was the one who took Shin's death the hardest. Him (Kira), Qin Jun and Park Min Lee (Hana's husband) were able to control their emotions, while Song Jing Li couldn't.

He (Song Jing Li) used to be a carefree and energetic boy, but after Shin's death, everything about the boy changed. He was still able to smile and joke, but they can all see the sadness in his eyes.

Then, out of the blue, Yue Ling suddenly tells them that she was moving to Imperial and wanted nothing to do with the underworld anymore.

With Shin gone and Yue Ling leaving, it took an even bigger toll on Song Jing Li.

Yue Ling was not only an older sister to him, but also a motherly figure.

*du du du

Before his thoughts could trail any deeper, the cigarette in his hand burn his fingers as the sound of his computer system beeps in warning.

He toss the cigarette out the window and stood up from the chair. Walking over to where he had set up his computer station, the many screens displaying different camera footages flash in red.

However, he didn't have to search for long as each camera set up around the place captures the headlights of an unidentified vehicle headed their way.

"Who is it?"

Entering the room, Qin Jun askes as he stops to observe the screen with the samurai looking man. At the same time, Song Jing Li also returns to the room when he heard the alarm sound.

He (Song Jing Li) is still angry over the conversation he had with Kira, but their current situation is more important.

"No license plate recognition."

Kira answers the question Qin Jun had ask. A dangerous glint of light flash across his eyes as he pays closes attention to the moving car in the screen.

He had set up a radar system that will scan any vehicle's license plate, but this unknown car heading their way had no plate number to scan.

"Get in position. We can't blow our cover."

Standing in between both men, Qin Jun gives a quick order after seeing the car slow to a stop in front of the factory.

Without any intentions of waiting to see who it is, each person turn in their own direction and walks away from the computer station.

In one swift motion all together, they take out their guns and attach a silencer on it.

Qin Jun positions himself against the wall right next to the door entrance while Kira and Song Jing Li hid separately behind some old metal shelves that were piled together.

No one dare to make a sound, let alone even breathe.
