Yan woke up early and prepared himself as well as he could.
" Do you have a special event to attend, Master? " asked Thomas, seeing his Master more concerned by his appearance than usual.
_ " Hmm ... Not really " answered the young man.
" It's a girl, right? "
_ " How did you know? "
" I used to be young too. I know the effect a girl has on a man. Let me prepare the Rolls Royce for your Master. "
_ " No, the bike will do. " replied Yan with firmness.
Thomas understood that he did not want to show his wealth to the girl, so he did not insist.
Yan went to Herman's Lounge first to arrange a romantic lunch for him and Cassie with Carlos, who put his best staff on the task to offer the young Master and his girlfriend the best experience ever. After that, Yan went to college to pick Cassie up.
At college, Yan waited for a few minutes close to a tree before Cassie arrived, dressed in white leggings and a white crop top. She approached Yan and kissed him in the sunlight. Then a rather big guy came to them, furious.
" What's that? " said he, looking furiously at Cassie.
_ " What's what? " she answered. It seemed like she knew the guy.
" Why are you kissing this guy? "
_ " He's my boyfriend "
" No !! You are mine !! " replied the guy as he started taking Cassie's hand. Josh had tried to date Cassie for several weeks but she did not show any interest and now that he saw her with Yan, he could just not admit that she preferred someone else and that is why he acted so. Also, he thought he was bigger than Yan, so Yan would not dare do anything.
_ " Josh !! What are you doing !?! Leave me alone !! " shouted Cassie as Josh held her hand and tried to pull her, but at the same moment, Yan stepped up and punched Josh straight in the face. Josh fell to the ground, not understanding what had just happened.
" Don't you ever touch my girlfriend, bastard! " Yan told him.
" I'm not done with you, loser. I'll get you !! " replied Josh as he left.
Then Yan asked Cassie about her relationship with Josh and she explained. Cassie did not know that Yan was this bold and knew how to defend himself, so the situation made her even more in love with Cassie. Now both of them were going to Herman's Lounge, where Yan had a surprise for her.
They chose an ordinary table in the restaurant of the Lounge, as Yan did not want Cassie to realize how rich he was yet. And when they ordered, musicians came to play violin for them and some animations were performed for the couple.
" Did you enjoy it? "
_ " Yes it was amazing ... " Answered Cassie.
Once outside Herman's Lounge, Josh was standing in the parking lot, near Yan's bike.
" Did you forget me? I told you we are not done yet "he said. And at the same moment, ten other guys appeared. Some with knifes, others with chains or iron bars. These men were members of the same gang as Josh and Josh called them to give a good lesson to Yan.
Yan did not know what to do ... It was the very first time he was put in such a situation and the worst part is that he was with his girlfriend. So he could not just clear his way by hitting one or two of them and fleeing.
" You coward!! Let Cassie go and let's settle this between men. " Shouted Yan
" I think you are the one being afraid now!! The girl is mine. " Replied Josh.
Two men came to take Cassie and Yan knocked one of them out with a kick to his face, but immediately, one of the guys hit Yan's leg with an iron bar and another one strangled him and pointed a knife at his neck. Yan was not able to move and could only watch Cassie being put in a car by two men. Josh got in the car too and they left the place.
Now the other men with weapons prepared to beat him up when several bodyguards from Herman's Lounge came.
" What's happening here? " asked one of the bodyguards.
" Stay away from it guys. This is our gang's business. " replied one of the gang members. Since nobody wanted to have trouble with gangs in the city, the bodyguards were about to leave. But one of them saw Yan's face and remembered how Mr Herman respected him and gave them orders to treat him with the highest respect. That same bodyguard whispered to his friend, who stopped and approached the gang members to check Yan's face while his friend contacted Mr. Herman to inform him of the situation.
" What are you waiting for !! Get that boy out of that s**t or I will fire you all !!! " Shouted Mr Herman.
All the bodyguards could clearly hear the communication as Mr. Herman answered about the group frequency. Suddenly, the bodyguard who had approached the scene took his gun and shot the man that held Yan in the head. The other gang members panicked and wanted to intervene, but very soon, the place was filled with tall and heavily muscled men with guns. Some carried assault rifles and others had pistols. Yan used the occasion to get out of there, take his motorcycle and call Thomas.
" What the f*** !!! You just killed one of us !! Don't you know the 67 gang !?! You're gonna regret this, I tell you !!! Mr Herman is gonna regret this ! " shouted one of the gang members.
Then Mr. Herman appeared " This is what we will do. You guys will calm down, put your weapons on the ground and leave this place. " he said with authority. The gang members still proudly threatened Carlos, thinking they were the most feared personality in the city. But this time, they messed with the wrong person. They were, indeed, the most powerful gang in the city and, alone, Mr Herman would never dare get into trouble with them, but Yan's family was the most powerful one in the country. And compared to them, the 67 gang was nothing.
On his motorcycle, Yan transmitted the information concerning the car to Thomas and asked if he could manage to localize it. Thomas reacted quickly and sent it to Yan. He also sent some men of the family to help Yan settle the situation, as Yan was untrained for this yet.
When Yan arrived at the Warehouse where the car stopped, he saw Josh and the two others, already tied up and injured, as if they had been tortured. Cassie was standing at the side, she seemed okay. And then out of the shadows, came 2 men. They bowed their heads when they saw Yan and one of them said :
" We are sorry that you had to experience this, young Master. "
" You have done a great job, please leave us alone now. " Yan did not want them to say more as he wanted Cassie to ignore his power and wealth. But too late. Cassie had already understood that her new boyfriend was no ordinary man.
" We brought you a car to take Miss Jones home and we will take care of the motorcycle. Thomas thought she needed to relax after what happened. " said one of the men to Yan as they left and he also gave the keys to Yan. The young Master also gave them the keys of his motorcycle. Cassie rushed to Yan's arms and hugged him so tight.
" Are you alright? " asked the young man.
" Yes, thanks to these men, they were unable to do anything to me. But who are they?!? They seemed to know you. "
" These are policemen I managed to call when I was on my way to you " replied Yan. The young girl did not say a word but kept on holding Yan.
Outside, a black Cadillac Escalade with a driver waited for Yan and Cassie and they took Cassie home. That night, Cassie did not sleep well. She spent most of the night thinking about what had just happened. What really intrigued her was Yan's identity.
She was not dumb to believe that these men were policemen when they just called Yan " Young Master " and took his motorcycle home.
So what kind of important personality is Yan? That is the question that hunted her during the night.
Yan on his side was just happy that he could intervene and that nothing happened to Cassie. He also realized he needs to be more prepared for a situation like this in the future.
Once home, Thomas took him to an underground secret piece in the house.
" I think it is time for you to start training now. "said Thomas as he opened the door of the piece.
The room was full of guns and other weapons like Katanas, different gadgets, and so on. The room near it was a shooting range where Yan was expected to spend a part of his time every day. Thomas gave him a gun for him to carry and use with the required papers for that.
