Unexpected Second Chance at Love-Chapter 826 - Caught red-handed

Chapter 826 - Caught red-handed

Yue Ling stood outside the guest bedroom door with a slightly pursed lip. She stares at the closed door for a long second before murmuring.

"That's odd..."

She and Lu Tian had arrived home not too long ago. They even stopped by Elegancy to buy lunch for everyone. However, when she met everyone, she realized that Liu Shan and Xu long were not present.

She then learned from Ju Suo and Lian Ni Shang that the two assistants were still sleeping. Of course, they left out the drinking all night part out.

She raises her hand to knock on the door again but stops herself.

"Maybe they're not hungry and still sleeping."

"Ah, boss, I thought that was you. What's wrong? Are they not answering?"

A voice sounds from the living room, and Yue Ling turns her head to the person. She sees Lin Hui poking his head in from the hallway first, then walks over to her.

She smiles a chuckle and shakes her head in response.

"No, they must have had too much to drink."

Lin Hui stops at her side and stares at the door. He also had drunk last night, but he and Qi Li were up before Alpha Team and Wolf Team arrived.

He didn't think he needed to wake up some grown men and went ahead with his unfinished tasks.

However, when the two escape doors and living room window was put back together, he overhead Gui Zhongmin and Shaofeng's conversation.

He came inside with the intentions of waking up the two men but saw his

boss heading towards the rooms.

Not wanting to get in trouble of partying inside his boss's house, he quickly jumped into action.

"They must not have heard you."

He chuckles and turns to look at Yue Ling. He felt terrible for drinking in her home while she was away. However, wanting to be a good subordinate, he quickly comes up with an idea.

"Boss, no need to be polite. This is your home."

* Thud!

His last word fell, and a loud noise resonates from inside the room. He jumped at the sound but quickly laughed.

"See. They're already up."

Taking the sound as a sign, he reaches for the door handle. He doesn't bother to knock and turns the knob since there was no look from inside.

He doesn't look inside but addresses his attention fully on his boss.

"See, what did I tell you? They didn't hear you knock."

Yue Ling was baffled by Lin Hui's carelessness, but she also didn't think much about why Liu Shan and Xu Long didn't open the door. She watches the door open, expecting to see nothing out of place. However, the more the door open, so did her eyes.

Lin Hui took notice of her expression and frowns in confusion. He turns around to see what shocked his boss to the core.

"What is it?"

And like her, his eyes gradually widens with his mouth. Not in shock but in pure horror.

"Oh... my... God..."

No wonder Yue Ling looked like she received the shock of her life.

Inside the room, Liu Shan found his shirt but could only put one arm through the sleeve. Next to him was a shirtless Xu long, who couldn't find his shirt anywhere. Both men were as pale as a ghost and frozen in place like criminals caught red-handed.

However, the most shocking thing was the two assistants trying to get a scared Liu Ye inside the closet.

Anyone who saw this scene would think it looked like a cheating husband was trying to hide his mistress from his wife.

"Uh..."

Yue Ling stares at the three people in bewilderment. After what felt like an entire day had gone by, she finally came to her senses. She cast aside all impure thoughts and composed her expression.

She clears her throat and walks away after giving an order.

"Come to the study room in five minutes."

"..."

Watching her walk away like she didn't see anything, Lin Hui's mouth twitches, wanting to smile. However, he held himself back and looked at the three men inside the room.

His eyes met with Liu Shan, and he shakes his head like he was disappointed.

"Shame on you. Boss permitted you to 'sleep' in her house, and this is how you repay her. Tsk, tsk."

He looks at Xu Long and shakes his head again but with a sigh.

"And you. I expected better from you."

His words fell in another disappointment before looking at Liu Ye. The young man, who had no idea of what is going on, was only doing what he was told to do.

And that was to get in the closet.

Lin Hui truly felt terrible that Liu Ye is drag into the middle of this situation.

However, unlike the disappointed look he gave the two assistants, he smiles sweetly like a good older brother.

"Don't worry. You're not in trouble."

He doesn't stay to chat anymore and closes the door. However, just as the door shut, he opens it again, soaring the people inside. He grins mischievously at Liu Shan and chuckles sinisterly.

"You have four minutes left."

"..."

Liu Shan and Xu long watch in utter disbelief. Neither was able to grasp what had happened. However, looking down at Liu Ye, everything made perfect sense.

One is half-dressed while holding the young man's head, and the other's hand is on his (Liu Ye) shoulders. Each person's appearance was disheveled and looked like they had a rough night.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, the scene looked like an affair between three men.

Xu Long lets go of Liu Ye and scratch his head in frustration.

"This is so embarrassing."

When they heard Yue Ling's voice after the knock, he and Liu Shan panicked. They weren't sure how she would react to a stranger in her home, so they told Liu Ye to go into the closet.

They planned to have the young man sneak out through the secret exit, but who knew it would be sealed off.

His hand moves to his forehead, and he massages it. He suddenly hears rustling and glances at the source.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Shan was frantically fixing his shirt and hair. He gnashed at Xu Long and wanted to strangle the man to death.

"This is all your fault. I said to act natural, but you kept saying to hide him.

Look at where it's gotten us. Now their thoughts are running wild."

Xu Long inhales a mouthful of air and palm on his chest. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. His cheeks turn red at the truth, but he wasn't going to let Liu Shan criticize him.

"My fault? You went along with the idea, and now it's my fault?!"

He stomps his feet on the floor and angrily searches for his clothes.

"If you had disagreed, none of this would have happened."

He thinks back to his lady boss's reaction, and he could only sigh depressingly.

"What if words of this get out? What will Zhao ya' Er think of me?"

Liu Shan rolled his eyes and put on his house slippers. He walks to the door to leave but stops and glares at Xu Long.

"While you're worried about that, pray my boss doesn't skin me alive."

He pulls open the door and storms out of the room leaving Xu Long and Liu Ye alone.

Liu Ye watched the two assistants argue like husband and wife in silence. He didn't dare open his mouth as he was a guest in the house. Not only that, he had yet to recover from his shock of meeting Han Yue Ling and fear of what will happen to him.

He glances at the door and sees a petite woman. He recognized her right away as the woman who was in the car with the scary bulky man.

Ju Suo was in the kitchen when she heard the commotion. She came to check because she was afraid for the men since she was involved in bringing Liu Ye here.

However, upon hearing the bickering inside, she was barely able to keep herself together.

No wonder Yue Ling left looking like she wanted to smile.

She clears her throat and returns to her senses. She smiles softly and gives a slight nod in greeting to Liu Ye.

"Everything is going to be okay. Come, let's go eat."
