After a sufficient amount of rest, Mo Ming woke up and looked at Lin Yuan'er, who was still sleeping beside him. He didn't want to move, fearing that he might wake her.
Lin Yuan'er looked beautiful while sleeping, without needing to pose in any alluring way; she was charming as ever, and her fiery red lips remained enticing.
He thought for a moment that now, apart from a promise and a marriage certificate, there was nothing else.
Yet Lin Yuan'er was willing to entrust all her happiness to him. If he still had no feelings for such a woman, that would be truly despicable.
Mo Ming asked himself honestly; he did have feelings for Lin Yuan'er now, especially after she stood up for him and took a bullet.
Mo Ming's feelings for Lin Yuan'er were not born out of guilt but rather from the experiences they shared together that sparked emotional connections.
It was sad that people often needed to go through certain events to learn to cherish what they have around them.
However, Mo Ming was fortunate; he didn't have to pay too high a price to understand the value of this woman who was willing to spend her life with him.
While Mo Ming was lost in thought, Lin Yuan'er's eyelashes fluttered slightly before her eyes slowly opened. When she saw Mo Ming gazing intently at her, a wave of happiness filled her heart, and a joyful smile appeared on her lips.
"Brother Mo!"
Lin Yuan'er called out sweetly, like a little girl. She moved closer to Mo Ming and hugged him tightly, resting her head on his solid chest, instantly feeling a sense of security.
This brought Mo Ming back to reality. Seeing Lin Yuan'er awake made him smile slightly as he wrapped his arms around her.
"Yuan, did you sleep well?"
"Mm, with Brother Mo here, Yuan'er sleeps very soundly. I really hope I can lie like this for the rest of my life. Brother Mo's chest feels so safe."
Such words might sound cheesy to others, but for Mo Ming, it felt romantic instead.
"Yuan, give me a little more time. Once I handle those troubles, we will get married. I want to give you the most grand and formal wedding!"
Mo Ming's eyes sparkled with determination, and he felt a surge of ambition. As long as the Dark Order existed, a peaceful life would be impossible.
Wanting to provide Lin Yuan'er with a stable life as soon as possible, Mo Ming was even more eager to bring down the Dark Order quickly.
Lin Yuan'er appeared completely satisfied; she didn't feel that their marriage was incomplete without a wedding. As long as they were together, why should they care about such formalities?
"Okay, I'll wait for you. As long as I'm with Brother Mo, it doesn't matter if the wedding is held in sixty or ninety years."
Although Lin Yuan'er wanted to convey to Mo Ming that she wasn't in a hurry, her words only made him more anxious to resolve the Dark Order issue sooner.
"Yuan, having you by my side in this lifetime is my happiness." Mo Ming gazed at Lin Yuan'er with deep affection, a gentle smile appearing on his lips.
Having a woman who wholeheartedly followed him without complaints was indeed a blessing and a stroke of luck.
Mo Ming knew that fate was still kind to him; he had a group of good brothers and a woman who loved him deeply. What more could he ask for in this life?
Hearing this, Lin Yuan'er's heart swelled with happiness, her smile growing sweeter. Taking advantage of Mo Ming's momentary distraction, she leaned in and kissed him on the lips.
This was undoubtedly a signal for Mo Ming to take action. Initially, he didn't want to delay her happiness and pretended to be indifferent towards Lin Yuan'er. However, now that he had developed feelings for her, if he didn’t make a move soon, he would truly become like Liu Xia Hui.
Mo Ming looked deeply into Lin Yuan'er's eyes, filled with affection, and immediately kissed her back.
...
"Boss, what brings you here?"
He Yunsong wiped the sweat from his brow, looking like he had just finished sparring. Upon seeing Mo Ming arrive, he stopped what he was doing.
"Let's talk about something." Mo Ming said with a slight smile, getting straight to the point.
He Yunsong took off his sweaty gloves, and immediately a subordinate brought over a towel. He Yunsong took the towel and wiped the sweat from his brow.
"Boss, let's discuss it in the back room."
"Okay."
The two entered the gym's room, where He Yunsong twisted open a bottle of soda and took several big gulps.
"Boss, what's going on?"
Mo Ming said with a serious expression, "The recent situation is very severe for me. If I handle this poorly, I could face dire consequences."
Upon hearing this, He Yunsong immediately understood the gravity of the situation, and his expression became serious as well.
"Boss, what’s happening that makes you so serious? Have you run into some trouble? Do you need my help?"
"I do need your help, you local tyrant. If I don't ask you for help, who else can I turn to?" Mo Ming nodded and said, "An enemy has returned to take revenge on me and has been using various underhanded tactics against me. It's just him alone that I’m not afraid of, but he’s not my only enemy; it’s the largest underground organization in the world. My own strength isn’t enough to deal with this, so I hope you can assist me."
"What are you thinking? As long as you say the word, even if the enemy is a tiger, I won’t bat an eye."
He Yunsong didn’t hesitate at all and answered directly. Mo Ming was his boss, and he was helping him seek revenge. He Yunsong had made it this far relying on loyalty; now that his brother was in trouble, how could he not help?
"Tell me, Boss, how exactly do you need my help? Do you need some men?"
"I knew you'd say that, good brother." Mo Ming punched He Yunsong lightly on the chest and said, "You’re right about one thing; I do need some manpower!"
"Sure! If you think our group of small-time thugs is good enough for you, all three thousand of my subordinates are at your disposal."
He Yunsong smiled and said, "But what else do you want me to help you with?"
"There’s one more thing. I need to find a time to meet Zhuge Sheng. I want to discuss cooperation with him," Mo Ming replied calmly.
This surprised He Yunsong; Zhuge Sheng was a cunning old fox. Approaching him for cooperation could provoke hostility. Was Mo Ming asking for trouble?
"Boss, are you serious?"
It was the first time He Yunsong had seen Mo Ming so earnest, and he realized it wasn't a joke. He sighed and said, "Alright, but this is too dangerous. If Zhuge Sheng develops a murderous intent towards you, I don't think I can protect you."
"Fortune favors the bold. How will I know if it works unless I try?" Mo Ming replied nonchalantly.
Sometimes, taking a risk brings hope. Given the current situation, Mo Ming urgently needed an ally to help him through this dangerous period.
"But I still think it's very risky. I know you're skilled, but if you anger him during negotiations, you'll have guns pointed at you from all directions, and you won't be able to escape."
He Yunsong was still somewhat uneasy; he had been around Zhuge Sheng for some years and knew him well.
On the surface, Zhuge Sheng appeared amiable, but he was actually a deeply calculating old fox. If provoked, he could easily destroy even a lion.
"You don't need to worry about that. I'll have a way to handle it; just help me arrange the meeting. If the negotiation fails, I'll have to resort to extreme measures."
He Yunsong asked, "What extreme measures?"
"If Zhuge Sheng refuses my invitation, I'll have no choice but to eliminate him and support you in taking his place. Then, the Little Green Society will be under your control!"
A fierce glint flashed in Mo Ming's eyes as he continued, "This is the first step of the plan. Nanhua City will be our center as we expand sequentially. I want to establish a force that flies our banner all over the world!"
If anyone else had said this, He Yunsong would have scoffed at them for being delusional. But since it was Mo Ming who said it, He Yunsong could only feel immense shock.
Mo Ming had given him too much surprise, almost like a god, as if there was nothing he couldn't do. He Yunsong did not doubt that Mo Ming could achieve that step.
At that moment, the whole world would be at their feet; just thinking about that feeling was exhilarating.
He Yunsong remained silent, and it was Mo Ming who continued, "This is risky. You can think it over before deciding whether to join me."
After a pause, Mo Ming patted He Yunsong's shoulder and said, "No matter what, we are brothers."
Without saying a word, He Yunsong directly punched Mo Ming in the chest with some annoyance and said, "Damn it, boss, what nonsense are you talking? Brothers for life means your business is my business. Besides, this sounds really exciting; we have to do it!"
Mo Ming felt a bit gratified; it's rare to find a brother willing to share life and death together, but he wasn't lacking in that regard—his brothers could all do the same.
"Alright, then let us join forces and create our own world!"
He Yunsong nodded and said, "Sure thing, I want the boss to take me along for the ride!"
He Yunsong was somewhat looking forward to Mo Ming's ideas. After all, being limited to Nanhua City felt too narrow; who wouldn't want to stand at a higher place to see the world when it came to a man's wild ambition to conquer it?
"Hehe, find some time to arrange things for me," Mo Ming smiled, his expression becoming resolute. "It all depends on how Zhuge Sheng chooses—ally or enemy!"
"I'll find time to arrange it. Regardless, if Zhuge Sheng chooses to stand on the opposing side, I'll confront him."
A glint of killing intent flashed in He Yunsong's eyes as he spoke.
"Let's first test Zhuge Sheng's thoughts. Just let me know when you have arranged the time; I'm free anytime."
Mo Ming recalled the matter regarding Hebrew and slightly furrowed his brow. "Also, find a few trusted subordinates with broader connections to help me investigate someone."
"Sure, who are we looking into?"
"Take this," He Yunsong said as he handed over the information to Mo Ming. Mo Ming remained silent, fiddling with He Yunsong's hand before connecting to an overseas server to download the files. He then handed his phone back to He Yunsong.
"He is Hebekai. I killed him once before, but he didn't die. Now he's back for revenge, and I've already fallen into his traps multiple times."
Mo Ming smiled wryly and said, "He's in the shadows while I'm in the light; he's not easy to deal with. You guys from the Little Green Society are the local tyrants here, so you should be able to gather some intel."
"Alright, I'll instruct my subordinates to look into it and notify you as soon as we have any news."
He Yunsong nodded and opened the document on his phone. After a quick glance, his expression turned serious and slightly shocked. "Boss, this guy is Hebekai, the number one in the assassin world!"
He Yunsong was already astonished by Hebekai's identity, but if Mo Ming had killed him before, didn't that mean Mo Ming was stronger than Hebekai?
Initially, He Yunsong was already impressed by Mo Ming's identity as a Shura; now he felt even more respect for him.
