After that old fox returned, Mo Ming allowed Liu Feng to send Wang Li back. Several days passed, and Zhuge Sheng still had not taken any retaliatory actions against Mo Ming and He Yunsong, indicating that the cooperation was solidified.
In Nanhua City, things had taken the first step. Mo Ming secured Zhuge Sheng with a ten percent stake in the Phoenix Grand Hotel and instructed him to inform the leaders of the Little Green Society in various regions to keep an eye out for any outsiders. If any suspicious individuals appeared, they were to report immediately to Zhuge Sheng, who would then relay the information to Mo Ming.
With the locations provided by Poisonous Madness, Liu Feng led Silver Wolf and others to sweep through and eliminate most of the members of the Dark Order lurking in Nanhua City. As for whether they were completely eradicated, Mo Ming could not guarantee it. However, this made it unlikely for the Dark Order to infiltrate on a large scale without being detected.
For now, things seemed stable here. With the assistance of the Little Green Society and He Yunsong on the surface, Mo Ming had Liu Feng take charge behind the scenes. As long as the Dark Order did not make a serious move, this place was somewhat secure.
However, besides the Dark Order, Mo Ming also had to be wary of the Azure Dragon Gang and Hong Gang eyeing Nanhua City. Initially, Mo Ming wanted Poisonous Madness to monitor Hong Gang's movements, but Poisonous Madness insisted on staying in Nanhua City with Luoxiwei. Thus, Mo Ming had no choice but to send someone from Underworld instead.
Poisonous Madness had claimed he would capture Luoxiwei within five months. If he failed, Mo Ming and Liu Feng had already discussed giving him a good beating!
Although life was peaceful now, Mo Ming was busier than ever; time no longer belonged to him but was entirely dictated by Lin Yuan'er and Murong Lian. He became their little follower, going wherever they went.
Murong Wei heard about Mo Ming and Murong Lian's situation and, just as she had said before, did not mind at all. In fact, she was quite happy about it. Murong Lian felt a bit shy being called "son-in-law" by her but was nonetheless pleased and acted like a little woman. Occasionally, she still teased Mo Ming as usual, and their interactions were quite harmonious.
After wrapping up matters here, Mo Ming planned to take action regarding Gong Gao Yi. Originally, before Murong Lian became his woman, he had already decided to confront Reed's family that spanned both legal and illegal realms in Y Country to capture Gong Gao Yi. Now that Murong Lian was his woman, he felt even more compelled to resolve this issue quickly to help her overcome her inner demons.
...
In the hall of Murong Wei's Hillside Mansion, Murong Lian lay in Mo Ming's arms.
As preparations were made for his trip to Y Country, Mo Ming had already discussed it with both Murong Lian and Lin Yuan'er. Although they were very concerned about his safety and did not want him to go, they seemed to understand his character and did not try to dissuade him.
On the eve of his departure for Y Country, Lin Yuan'er generously gave her time to Murong Lian. So today, Mo Ming only accompanied Murong Lian. He initially thought she would want to go out somewhere but was surprised when she only wished to spend the day at home with him.
“Mo Ming, are you really going?”
Murong Lian tried calling Mo Ming by various names—Ming, Brother Ming, even using Lin Yuan'er's way of addressing him as Brother Mo—but both Mo Ming and Murong Lian felt it was strange, so Murong Lian continued to call him Mo Ming.
“Hmm.” Mo Ming gazed affectionately at the beauty in his arms, a slight smile playing on his lips as he said, “Gong Gao Yi harmed your mother and nearly harmed you. No matter where he hides, I will find a way to drag him out and bring him before you so you can take revenge for your mother!”
Regarding the Rider Family, Murong Lian had asked Murong Wei and knew their power was formidable; they were figures even the Y Country government could not handle. The fact that Mo Ming was willing to risk everything to help her seek revenge made a warm current flow through Murong Lian's heart.
“Hmm, Mo Ming, you are truly wonderful. I feel so lucky to have met you and to be with you.”
The curve of Murong Lian's lips was sweet, and she understood that the reason she fell in love with Mo Ming, who was younger than her, was because he provided her with a sense of security. Moreover, their time spent together deepened her feelings for him.
Perhaps it was fate; the experiences of Mo Ming and Murong Lian seemed preordained, destined to come together. Just think, if Mo Ming had not encountered that failed mission, he might have devoted his entire life to the military. And if Murong Lian had not faced that terrifying incident in her childhood, she might not have found it so easy to develop feelings for Mo Ming.
“Ha?” Mo Ming smirked mischievously. “I remember when we first met, you called me a rogue and a pervert, even referring to me as an Island Nation Actor. Now you say you're lucky to meet me; does that mean you like rogues?”
“Hmph, don’t get too smug too soon. Although I’ve fallen for you, the big rogue, your image in my heart hasn’t changed; you still look like that ** male actor.” Murong Lian pouted playfully.
“Is that so?”
A wicked smile appeared on Mo Ming's face as he leaned closer to Murong Lian, their faces almost touching. He watched her pouting lips but hesitated to kiss her.
“Bad guy, what are you trying to do?”
Murong Lian looked at Mo Ming's shameless behavior, her eyes becoming hazy, and she instinctively took a step back. However, she only retreated slightly, and her body stopped moving because as she stepped back, Mo Ming leaned closer.
Mo Ming stood like a statue, his wicked smile still present, and she could almost smell the fragrance of a young girl emanating from Murong Lian. Yet, Mo Ming seemed indifferent, not intending to do anything bad to her.
"What do you want?" Murong Lian's heart raced, her cheeks flushed.
Mo Ming grinned mischievously and said lightly, "To kiss you."
Upon hearing this, Murong Lian seemed to prepare herself for the kiss, closing her eyes and instinctively leaning forward to offer her lips to Mo Ming.
Just as their lips were about to touch, Mo Ming stood up, avoiding Murong Lian's lips and burst into laughter.
"Hehe, I was just teasing you. Why are you taking it so seriously?"
Murong Lian's face turned even redder with embarrassment and anger as she stood up and lunged at Mo Ming.
"Hmph! How dare you play with me! Are you asking for a beating?"
"That depends on whether you can catch me," Mo Ming replied with a smile.
Fuming, Murong Lian chased after him. "Just wait! When I catch you, you'll have to kneel on the washboard!"
"Sure, I'll be waiting for your washboard!"
Mo Ming ran around the sofa for a bit before deliberately allowing Murong Lian to catch him.
Murong Lian looked as excited as a police officer who had caught a thief and said, "Bad guy, you thought you could run away, huh? You actually tried to trick me. Are you itching for trouble? Go kneel on the washboard!"
"I'm not itching for trouble, but my heart is feeling a bit restless," Mo Ming said as he forcibly picked up Murong Lian. Startled, Murong Lian quickly hooked her arms around his neck, her heart racing like a little deer, and her cheeks felt increasingly hot.
"Put me down, you bad guy! What are you doing?" Murong Lian pounded her small fists against Mo Ming's chest and said, "We agreed that if I caught you, you'd have to kneel on the washboard. No cheating!"
"I'm not cheating; however, before kneeling on the washboard, let's take care of some important matters first!" Mo Ming said with a mischievous grin while looking at Murong Lian.
"Ah, you bad guy! Put me down right now!" Murong Lian immediately understood what Mo Ming was planning. She struggled for a moment, but Mo Ming ignored her and carried her upstairs.
...
Originally, Mo Ming planned to stay at Murong Wei's house tonight to keep Murong Lian company. However, he received a call from Lord Qian, who said he needed to discuss something important with him and urged him to come over quickly.
Murong Lian did not stop him; she didn't want to hold Mo Ming back!
Uncertain about what Lord Qian wanted, Mo Ming drove over. When he arrived, Huang Siye was waiting at the door. Upon seeing Mo Ming, he approached and exchanged pleasantries, mentioning how Jun Qianqian had been thinking about him. Mo Ming immediately cut him off.
Huang Siye smiled but didn't say much more. As for Jun Qianqian, she happened to be flying abroad and wasn't there. Mo Ming felt a slight sense of relief because he knew that Jun Qianqian had feelings for him, and he didn't know how to face her.
Accepting Jun Qianqian's feelings would mean letting someone else down. Mo Ming didn't want that; he just wanted to maintain some distance from Jun Qianqian and see if it would help her forget her feelings for him.
As Huang Siye walked into Lord Qian's room, Lord Qian was seated in a rocking chair, engrossed in an ancient bound book. Mo Ming quickly glanced at the book, titled "Spirit Gathering Technique," which clearly showed signs of age, having likely endured many dynasties.
"Seventh Master, Mo Ming has arrived."
Upon hearing Huang Siye's words, Lord Qian shifted his gaze from the ancient text to Mo Ming, a faint smile appearing on his lips as he gently set the book down and stood up with the aid of his cane.
"Mo Ming, you finally came to see us old folks! I haven't seen you in a long time!"
There was a hint of reproach in Lord Qian's words, making Mo Ming awkwardly smile and say, "Seventh Master, I wanted to come see you. It's just that recent events have piled up, and I really couldn't find the time. I hope Fourth Master and Seventh Master can forgive me."
"Hehe, kid, your Seventh Master is just teasing you. We are well aware of the big things you've been up to lately. Don't think just because we're old that we lack ears and eyes." Huang Siye chuckled, patting Mo Ming on the shoulder. "Good lad, you've even managed to win over Zhuge Sheng that old fox. That's quite impressive!"
"Uh, has Ah Yun told you all?" Mo Ming said with a wry smile, shaking his head. "Zhuge Sheng is very cunning; I can't be sure if I can truly win him over. I hope he doesn't play tricks on me; otherwise, it would be quite troublesome."
"Yes, Yun Song has informed us about your matters. That old fox Zhuge Sheng does have some schemes, but the conditions you've offered him are enough to pique his interest. I believe he won't pull any tricks until he figures you out." Lord Qian replied with a warm smile and nodded. "I heard you're going against the Dark Order? That's quite an ancient organization."
"You've heard about it, Seventh Master?" Mo Ming's expression changed slightly. This organization was known for its secrecy and caution; even during his missions, he had no idea who they were or what country they belonged to. The fact that a former leader knew about them left Mo Ming somewhat astonished.
