The burly men looked at Zayn again.
Zayn put his hand into his pocket and glanced at them lazily with a knowing look in his eyes.

The burly men raised their eyebrows, thinking, “This boy doesn’t seem afraid of us despite his young age. It’s obvious he’s born to do this! He must Yale’s son! In that case, she must be Mr. Yale’s daughter! No wonder Mr. Yale has never planned to get together with any women. It turns out Mr. Yale
already in a relationship!”
Joshua didn’t introduce them. He casually pointed at them. “Address them as miss and sir.”
The group of people bowed deeply and said, “Welcome back, Miss, Sir!”
The sound was so loud that the ground trembled!
Joshua said indifferently, “Remember to always treat them with the utmost respect. Seeing them is like seeing me. Any given order given by the girl is the imperial decree. She’s always right. Do I make myself clear?”
They shouted, “Yes!”
Joshua looked at Laura again and smiled in amusement. “Give me an order. Do you have anything to tell these people?”
Those burly men immediately looked at her, waiting for her to give the order.
Laura grabbed her pants and met those burly men’s sharp gazes in a daze. “I want to go to the toilet.”
Joshua was rendered speechless.
Zayn was stumped.
The leader of the group shouted, “Miss wishes to use the restroom! Vacate the restroom at once and see Miss off to the restroom!”
The man behind him parted, forming a path instantly, and said in unison, “Please enjoy your time in the restroom, Miss!”
The other passers–by looked at Laura in astonishment, as if they were watching the young lady from a mafia family. They were both frightened and
curious.
Laura was even more stunned. She looked at Joshua under pressure and said, “Uncle Joshua, I just want to use the restroom. Do they have to let everyone know?”
Joshua laughed and teased, “Yes. This is an arrangement for you, my precious little princess.”
Laura was embarrassed and walked to the restroom under pressure.
An indistinctly gentle look flashed across Joshua’s eyes. “She’s getting more interesting the more I spend time with her.”
Zayn looked at him and said without warning, “What do you do for a living?”
Joshua raised her eyebrows and looked at him without hiding anything. “What do you think?”
Zayn squinted, and his eyes darkened. “I don’t think you are a good person. Unlike other members of the Yale family, you exude a kind of hostility.”
Moreover, it was the kind that only existed after years of hardening.
Joshua lit a cigarette and took over the silencer pistol handed by his men. “Kid, don’t talk nonsense. I do real business with a license, I own a big company. I’m here to discuss business.”

Zayn stared at the cigarette and said, “In that case, tell me what you: sell,”
Joshua said in a casual tone, “I sell planes.”
Zayn frowned and felt something was wrong. His eyes fell on the tattoos of those burly men.
He had seen that tattoo.

He kept searching in his mind and suddenly remembered something.
He thought, “Flammable Explosive Organization! That’s the world’s top weapons manufacturer! They are most skilled at building fighter jets and planes!”
He looked at Joshua in disbelief. “Are you the leader of the Flammable Explosive Organization? Are you Lil Pup?”
Joshua smoked a cigarette and looked at him in surprise. “You know that?”
Zayn thought, “Of course, I know! It is my dream to start such a company!”
Zayn looked at him in shock.
He once checked the information. Lil Pup got involved in business in his teens and became the leader of the whole organization, step by step. During that period, he even took a postgraduate entrance examination and got a doctor’s degree/ His academic qualifications were impressive.
Moreover, he had participated in various mecha competitions since childhood and won many championships.
Therefore, Flammable Explosive Organization was Zayn’s goal.
And Lil Pup was his idol!
He couldn’t believe Lil Pup was Laura’s uncle.
Zayn suppressed his emotions and said with a straight face, “I always have a question. Why do you call yourself Lil Pup?”
Joshua acted like an elder, puffing on his cigarette. “I didn’t name myself that. I was too naive when I was fifteen. Other people gave me the nickname behind my back. Afterward, I figured I was indeed a gentle and cute man, so I didn’t change it.”
After he said that, his expression became solemn. “Sorry, Mr. Graham. Someone wants to kill me. Let me shoot him first.”
After that, he suddenly took out his gun and shot at the corner!
His subordinates trembled.
In the corner, a man wearing the janitor’s uniform slowly fell to the ground with a gun in his hand, as if he was about to attack Joshua.
The subordinates hurriedly disposed of the body and repeatedly apologized to Joshua, “I’m sorry, Mr. Yale! It was our negligence!”
Joshua quickly put the gun back into his pocket and smiled at Zayn. “Look, I’m very cute, am I not?”
Zayn was rendered speechless.
Laura was escorted out of the restroom by a group of people, followed by ten men holding rifles.
She ran to them. “Uncle! Zayn!”
Under the bright light, Laura’s eyes seemed to be glowing.
Joshua’s eyes softened, and he squatted down to spread his arms.

Chapter 144
Laura threw herself into his arms, and her fragrance rushed into his nose.
With a smile in his eyes, he picked her up with one hand and said, “I’m starting to get fond of you the more I spend time with you. Do you like me?”

Laura was stunned and crossed her hands in front of her. “Mommy Winnie said that even if you like me, I can’t say I like you. You haven’t completed the test yet!”
Joshua was rendered speechless.
He thought, “That’s great. Winnie totally has us at her mercy.”
Zayn thought for a while and said, “Mr. Joshua Yale, I want to tag along with you to discuss business.”
Joshua was stunned and refused with a smile, “No way. You are too young. Besides, if I take you with me, your father will wreck my house.”
Zayn said, “My father is not that kind of person.”
Joshua looked at him quietly.
Zayn was silent for a moment and felt guilty. “Fine. He is indeed that kind of person. But aren’t you the most professional? I just want to see how this kind of business is negotiated. I just wish to witness it once.”
Joshua pondered for some time and said, “Okay. Nothing should go wrong, but you can only look through the telescope.”
Zayn rarely unfolded his eyebrows and nodded firmly. “Okay.”
Laura didn’t know what agreement they had reached. She just followed them to the magnificent estate full of red roses, and before she could appreciate it, she was directly taken to the basement.
The basement was like a new world, with bright lights and many passageways. It felt strange, just like the scenes in those gunfight movies Zayn always
watched.
Laura looked around in amusement, as if she was experiencing the scenes in a movie,
Zayn held her hand, repeatedly tightening and loosening his grip. A look of admiration filled his eyes.
Joshua led them to a lounge. “Call Floretta here.”
Soon, a woman wearing high heels strode in. She wasn’t particularly pretty, but her aura was extremely strong. “Mr. Yale, are you looking for me?”
Laura swayed her feet on the couch and looked around curiously, thinking, “Something is different with the way this Ms. Valentine is looking at Uncle Joshua. She’s suppressing her glee. It seems like she likes Uncle Joshua.”
Joshua pointed at her casually and said, “I want to go out to discuss business. I’ll leave this child to you. Address her as Miss. Do whatever she asks you to. Don’t talk back or disobey her, okay?”
The woman’s smile froze, and her eyes fell on Laura.
Laura looked at her curiously.
She looked at Joshua coldly and asked, “When will you come back?”
Joshua said lightly, “I can’t be sure since this is my first time doing business with them. If they suddenly tried to kill me to seize my goods, I may return
late.”
Laura’s eyes widened in horror.
She thought, “What? Someone wants to kill him?”

The woman nodded calmly. “I see. Please rest assured and leave this child in my care.”
Joshua turned around and left.
Zayn also said, “Laura, I’ll go with him first. Wait for me to come back.”
Lainie nodded worriedly and watched them leave. Subsequently, Floretta and her bodyguard were the only ones left in the room.
Laura looked at her nervously.
The second Joshua left, Floretta’s expression changed.
She looked down at Laura condescendingly.
Laura waved her hand awkwardly. “Hello, Miss.”

She wanted to call her name, but Floretta seemed too unfriendly. Therefore, Laura figured it would be better to be polite and address Floretta as Miss.
