Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1214

"Hurry up! You're too slow! Go faster! Why are you so slow!" the man continued to castigate Charlie as if he was trying his best to make him angry.

However, the comments were making Charlie feel anything but that and his face became increasingly gloomy as minutes passed. He had fought against the man for quite a while now, but he still was not able to defeat him at all.

"Charlie Long! It has only been a year since we last saw each other and your skills have already regressed this much? What's happening to you?" the man snorted and sneered. His tone sounded disdainful and ironic. "Have you forgotten your fundamental skills just because of a stupid game and some girlfriend? I cannot believe it!" he asked.

All of a sudden, Charlie stopped in his tracks. Unmoving and standing a far distance away from the man he was sparring with, he looked up. When his piercing eyes met the man's, a sly smile appeared on his lips. Slowly, he began speaking, "Well, Quintin Mo, it seems like you haven't improved either in the last one year when we haven't seen each other."

Hearing what Charlie said, the man named Quintin sneered even more. "Is that so? Well, even if that's the case, I'm still much, much better than you. At least I know what I want." As soon as he finished talking, the gun, which he had put away a while ago, suddenly was in his hands again. Now, it was pointed at Charlie, and his face looked sinister.

Sighing slightly, Charlie said, "You know what? One of the things I hate the most is being threatened by a gun. You've already done that twice within a span of a few minutes." His tone sounded nonchalant, and his face didn't betray anything that he was feeling, but everyone who knew him dearly would know that this only meant one thing–he was extremely angry.

Of course Quintin Mo was one of those people who knew Charlie, as the two of them had lived together for a really long time. The two of them had nothing in common. They were not the same kind of people. As a result, even if they were living in the same place for a long time, they weren't able to become friends.

Meanwhile, the two were starting to hear faint footsteps coming from the outside. It seemed like a few people were coming in. When Charlie kicked the door down, he had drawn the attention of many people. However, because of the cold and bloodthirsty expression on his face, the two security guards had been paralyzed with fear and had not dared try to intercept or stop him. Nevertheless, later, when they started hearing the fighting that was going on in the room, they began to doubt whether they did the right thing letting Charlie through. Fearing that something severe might happen inside, which can easily be blamed on their inaction, they finally called for back-up.

"Was he the guy you two saw?" the captain of security guards asked the two security guards while pointing at Charlie's image on the screen. Seeing that they had positively confirmed, he continued, "You two always talk about how great you two are at you jobs. How could you fear such a young boy? Huh?" Rolling his eyes, he left the two visibly embarrassed guards, opened the door of the room where Charlie and Quintin were, and entered.

When he and other security guards saw the scene inside the room, all of them were so shaken that they had to take a step back. While trying his best to calm down, the captain started, "You... What... What are you doing here?"

Everybody was afraid of death. Nobody was an exception. As their jobs only required them to carry a police baton, it was their first time seeing a gun. And with it being held by someone like Quintin, they couldn't help but feel very scared.
