CHAPTER FOUR

Hoshi dropped Jian off to her workplace, NitroX. She got off the motorbike as she took off her helmet and handed it to him. "I hope you don't expect me to thank you", she sarcastically said. Hoshi just shrugged off her words as he said "You're welcome". Jian rolled her eyes as she waved at him and headed inside. Hoshi then left to his work.

Jian Pov

It was a relief that I reached the place in time. I didn't have the time to listen to my boss nagging at me again. To my surprise, the place was so quiet and I barely saw any staffs. "Jian, you're here", Eric said as he approached me with a wrench on his hand.

"Why do we look like we're void of customers and work today?", I asked him. He sighed as he pointed the office. It was transparent, so the inside could be seen from outside. My boss, Hyunjae was having a conversation with a man who wasn't a staff here. I remembered his face. He was a member of the House of Diamond. "What is he doing here?", I asked Eric. He raised his eyebrows as he looked at me. "You know him?"

"Duh. Just answer me".

"Well, he's an old friend of hyung, and he came here to catch up with him"...

"Sounds fishy", I said. Both of them came out of the office as they approached us. "Jian, it's great that you're here. Mingyu wants someone to accompany him to the night race in case he needs a  mechanic", Hyunjae told me.

So, the man name is Mingyu?

"I said someone professional", Mingyu said as he looked at Hyunjae. Hyunjae only laughed as he grabbed my shoulder. I pushed away his hand instantly. "Jian is the best mechanic here. She might be young, but she's very capable", he told his friend. I crossed my arm as I smirked and raised my eyebrow at the giant. Thanks to my mother gene, I was taller than girls of my age. But he was truely a giant. I reached upto his chest.

"Can I trust her to not speak of what she is going to see?"..

I snapped my fingers at him. "Oy! Talk to me if it's something about me. I know me the best", I said. A slight smirk curved the corner of his lips.

"Okay. Remember to not run your mouth. Because you and I both know that your life is on the palm of my hand", he said as he wore his sunglasses and left. I sighed in annoyance as I looked at the two."Don't worry, Juhaknyeon is going to be there. He can help you if something goes wrong". Hyunjae offered me a comforting smile as he pat my shoulder. I just groaned as I stomped out of the place.

He was already in his car. Alfa Romeo. Pretty nice, btw. I opened the passenger seat as I sat on it. I threw my bag on the backseat. "Where are we going?", I asked. He started the engine as he turned his face towards my side.

"Night race"..

I chuckled.

"Why am I not surprised by that? Oh! wait, let me think. Maybe because you're a freaking mafia and crime runs in your veins". I was caught off guard when he suddenly leaned closer and our faces were only an inch apart. My eyes got wider as I felt my heartbeat increasing. Not because I was flustered by his action, but rather the closeness switched on my fear.

He grabbed the seatbelt as he put it on for me. "Keep that pretty mouth of yours shut before I make you regret dissing me. I might like badass girls, but you talk too much". I could feel his breath on my skin. Before he could trigger my fear, I pushed him back on his seat as I adjusted myself to sit straight and calm down.

He stared at me for what felt like a minute, which really pissed me off. I sighed as I turned my head towards him. "Drive, will you?". He smirked again as he finally face the front and drove off the car towards Gods know where!.
