The sound of the engine stopped shortly after, and a man with short hair walked in with a slight smile on his lips. He glanced at Mo Ming and politely called out to Lord Qian and Huang Siye, "Seventh Master, Fourth Master."
"You little rascal, you finally made it! Do you still remember these two old bones? Recently, your reputation has grown, and your business is booming. It seems you've forgotten about us; we haven't seen you around," Huang Siye teased with a laugh.
The man shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Fourth Master, you're joking. Didn't I come by a few days ago? I remember the great kindness from you and Seventh Master; how could I possibly forget?"
"Fourth Brother, don't flatter Yun Song. In this day and age, this kid is quite loyal. Even after achieving success, he hasn't forgotten us. I really like this kid," Lord Qian interjected with a slight smile. "Yun Song, this is the young man I mentioned to you a few days ago, Mo Ming. I believe you two have crossed paths before?"
"Yun Song, it's great to meet you."
Mo Ming immediately stepped forward to shake hands with He Yunsong. He Yunsong continued to smile and said, "Brother, just call me Ah Yun if you don't mind."
"Hehe, then I won't stand on ceremony; I'll call you Ah Yun," Mo Ming chuckled. "That night, you almost got me into trouble! I unexpectedly bumped into the back of your car and nearly flipped into a ditch."
"Haha..." He Yunsong laughed heartily. "That night was just to see your driving skills; I hope you don't hold it against me. I meant no harm."
"I know you didn't mean any harm. If you had, I probably wouldn't have made it out of Panlong Road," Mo Ming replied with a shake of his head and a smile.
Indeed, if He Yunsong were truly petty, he could have easily nudged Mo Ming's car during the last turn and sent him off to meet the King of Hell. However, He Yunsong did not do that, which showed he had no ill intentions.
"You two youngsters really get along well. Alright, let's go inside and chat; otherwise, these old bones of ours might fall apart," Lord Qian said with a smile as he leaned on his cane and walked ahead.
The group followed him until they reached a room where they saw a large round table filled with an array of delicacies. It seemed Lord Qian had instructed someone to prepare it in advance.
Once there, Lord Qian took his seat at the head of the table and said to Night Peak, "We're ready to eat; go fetch Qianqian."
"Yes." Night Peak replied without further comment and left.
"Everyone, feel free to sit down; there's no need to be overly formal here. Just enjoy your meal and drinks," Lord Qian welcomed them as he took his seat first.
Mo Ming was the first to sit down, smiling as he said, "Lord Qian, there are no rules here, but we younger ones must have some decorum. Respect for our elders is essential."
"Very good, very good. It's wonderful to respect the elderly. Mo Ming, I really like your character," Lord Qian said with a smile, looking at He Yunsong. "Yun Song here has a personality quite similar to yours; I think you two will get along very well."
"Seventh Master is right. We hit it off immediately, especially after that thrilling night of racing. Brother Mo Ming, I’ve already decided on you," He Yunsong said with a grin, raising his glass. "If you don’t acknowledge me, I might just have to take you down."
"Just joking! Why would I not recognize such a good brother? You think I'm foolish?" Mo Ming teased. "With a brother like Yun Song by my side, I can walk through Nanhua City without a care. That’s not a problem, right?"
As he spoke, Mo Ming raised his glass as well.
He Yunsong was instantly amused by Mo Ming's words. They clinked their glasses together and He Yunsong said, "No problem! You can walk however you want—sideways or upside down—whatever works for you. If anything comes up, I've got your back."
"Then I'll drink to that!" Mo Ming immediately downed his drink, and He Yunsong followed suit. They exchanged knowing smiles.
"Ah, I'm getting old and can't muster the energy anymore. Those days of fighting and killing are behind us; we old folks should just enjoy our remaining years at home," Lord Qian said. "From now on, all those fighting missions will be left to you young ones."
A true hero does not dwell on past glories; the memories of those days linger on. Suddenly, Lord Qian thought of the brothers who had fought alongside him to conquer the land. A wave of emotions washed over him as he felt nostalgic for those good times—so many had died or grown old; now only Huang Siye and he remained.
As he spoke, Lord Qian nearly shed tears, fearing he would be mocked by the younger generation.
"Hey, Seventh Master, don’t dwell on those past troubles; they’re behind us now. What we need to do is cherish the present! Let’s enjoy our drinks today and not talk about old times," Huang Siye interrupted when he noticed Lord Qian's mood was off. He stood up and raised his glass with a cheerful smile.
Mo Ming and He Yunsong quickly stood up as well, each offering a toast to Huang Siye before downing their drinks and sitting back down with him.
"Fourth Brother is right; let’s not think about sad things—let’s drink to our heart's content!" Lord Qian waved his hand dismissively, shaking off the sadness and restoring his kind smile.
"Ah Yun, since we've become brothers now, I’ll speak frankly," Mo Ming said as he looked at He Yunsong. "You know that Sito Hai is searching for me everywhere and won’t stop until he kills me. I’ve also heard that you have issues with Sito Hai. Would you consider forming an alliance to deal with him together?"
"I came to see you this time for this matter. Sito Hai and I have a deep-seated grudge that cannot be reconciled. Even if you don't show up, one day I will seek him out." He Yunsong's smile had not faded as he said, "Now that you are here, it just advances my plan. So tell me, can we become allies?"
Mo Ming immediately understood the implication behind He Yunsong's words and smiled, "Then let's work together happily. With Yun Song's help, getting rid of Sito Hai will be no problem."
"Looking at you, little brother, it seems that even without me as an ally, Sito Hai won't have peaceful days ahead, right?"
"Without you as an ally now, getting rid of Sito Hai might be a bit troublesome. However, the pain Sito Hai has caused me has made me swear to repay him a hundredfold. Whether or not anyone helps me, I won't let him have a peaceful life."
A fierce determination flashed in Mo Ming's eyes, which Lord Qian noticed, making him very curious about Mo Ming. After all, not many dared to confront Sito Hai in Nanhua City, yet Mo Ming did.
Lord Qian didn't believe that such fierceness was characteristic of a reckless person.
"Mo Ming, you should know that Sito Hai isn't hard to deal with; it's just that there are too many connections behind him. The Little Green Society is his backing. If you don't eliminate this backing, even if you manage to get rid of Sito Hai, you'll still fall into the endless pursuit of the Little Green Society. I hope you think this through," Lord Qian said earnestly, both to advise Mo Ming to consider the implications and to test whether he had any plans.
Mo Ming showed no hesitation and replied with a smile, "I understand the principle of capturing the king before capturing the thief. Since I'm planning to deal with Sito Hai, I also need to take care of Zhuge Sheng behind him. Lord Qian, there's no need for you to test me; I already have plans for how to deal with the Little Green Society."
"Not bad, really not bad. If you can recognize that I'm testing you, it shows you have some cunning and aren't as reckless as you appear," Lord Qian nodded in appreciation and said, "You two go ahead and do your thing. If you need us old fellows for anything, just ask. We're old now; if we don't go crazy one more time, there won't be another chance."
"Grandpa, what are you talking about? What kind of craziness do you want?" Jun Qianqian arrived just in time to hear the latter part and asked curiously with a smile.
Seeing Jun Qianqian, He Yunsong immediately smiled and said, "Oh look, the most beautiful flight attendant in Nanhua City is back! Let's give her a round of applause."
"Tch! Brother Yun Song, you've lost to Mo Ming now. I wonder if you'll dare to come to Panlong Circuit again," Jun Qianqian teased He Yunsong as soon as they met. "Why not stop racing and come be a driver for us? We could use someone like you."
"What’s there to be afraid of!" He Yunsong didn't mind at all and said, "Let me tell you, there's always someone better out there. Mo Ming beat me because he's capable; there's nothing shameful about it. I've always claimed to be second; now that there's a first place, that's great!"
"Alright then, find yourself an excuse," Jun Qianqian smiled at He Yunsong before sitting next to Lord Qian and said to Night Peak, "Uncle Night Peak, hurry up and sit down too; don't just stand there."
"That's right, Night Peak, if you're free, just sit down quickly. Let's all have a meal together." Lord Qian felt great and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "This is nice. It's been a long time since we've had a big group eating together."
...
The meal was quite enjoyable. With the innocent girl Jun Qianqian present, no one dared to discuss violent or bloody topics. After finishing the meal, Mo Ming and He Yunsong sat alone on a swing in the garden, smoking and chatting.
During their conversation, Mo Ming learned some things about He Yunsong's past.
Before He Yunsong joined the Little Green Society, he was just a high school student in his senior year. He had an older sister named He Yunxin, who dressed fashionably and enjoyed going to nightclubs. However, she was not one of those casual girls.
Because of this, when Sito Hai's sworn brother Scar Jack pursued He Yunxin and was repeatedly rejected, he resorted to his wolfish nature and kidnapped her, ultimately violating her.
Unable to bear the humiliation, He Yunxin jumped from a tall building and died from her injuries.
At that time, He Yunsong was still studying. Upon learning about his sister's incident, he immediately gathered his brothers, including Jordan, to find out Scar Jack's whereabouts. Armed with a machete, he confronted Scar Jack and killed him.
As a result, Sito Hai sent many of his underlings to capture He Yunsong alone, intending to take him down. Fortunately, Lord Qian intervened to save him and helped him join the Little Green Society, leading to the He Yunsong of today.
That day, He Yunsong shared a lot with Mo Ming, a friend he had just met. His expression was sorrowful—something Mo Ming would surely remember forever.
