"Hey, I can understand your feelings. I just heard the news about the giant python's death, and my heart aches too. But rather than living in pain, it's better to turn that sadness into anger!" Mo Ming sighed heavily, placing a hand on Poisonous Peak's shoulder as he spoke. "The giant python's grudge, the grudge of all our brothers, we'll seek it from the Dark Order together later!"
"The Dark Order is a bunch of bastards. As long as we exist, they won't have an easy time!" Poisonous Peak nodded and said, "Don't worry about me; I'm just having a hard time accepting the giant python's death. Give me some time, and I'll get through it."
"That's good. When you see the crocodile tomorrow, bring him here first," Mo Ming said, then looked at He Yunsong. "Ah Yun, I have many brothers coming here, so please arrange for more rooms. Also, let the Little Green Society members keep their mouths shut about their matters!"
"Everyone here is loyal and won't gossip outside. There are plenty of rooms here; when the boss's brothers arrive, there will definitely be places for them to stay, so no need to worry," He Yunsong nodded in response.
Mo Ming nodded and spent the afternoon discussing the current situation with He Yunsong and others, planning their next steps. As it neared the end of Murong Lian and Lin Yuan'er's work hours, Mo Ming left.
Upon arriving at Starry Rhythm Advertising Company, Mo Ming brought three women back to Murong Wei's Hillside Mansion. Enjoying Aunt Xiang's delicious cooking, Aunt Xiang was not seeing Lin Yuan'er and Jun Qianqian for the first time and spoke comfortably with them as they gathered around the table sharing stories.
Late into the night, after sending Jun Qianqian and Lin Yuan'er home respectively, Mo Ming initially intended to ask Fu Meng for help with something. However, Fu Meng was busy with other matters and hadn't returned home yet, so he decided to stay at home.
Bored out of her mind at home, Fu Qingyun dressed up and was just about to go out with friends when she saw Mo Ming return. She immediately jumped onto him, wrapping her legs tightly around his waist.
"Cousin-in-law, I've finally caught you this time! Hmph! Every time you drop off my cousin, you leave right away without even looking at me. Do you really not want to see me?!" Fu Qingyun stared intently into Mo Ming's eyes, completely ignoring how ambiguous the situation was.
Lin Yuan'er beside them pinched Fu Qingyun's arm and said, "Little girl, get down right now! How old are you? Do you still need your cousin-in-law to carry you? Aren't you afraid your friends will laugh at you if this gets out?"
"Ow... Cousin, you're being too rough! I'm just asking Cousin-in-law for a hug; it's not like you need to be jealous!" Fu Qingyun didn't care about Lin Yuan'er's pinch and refused to get down. "Cousin-in-law, look how fierce my cousin is! If you marry her, it won't be easy living at home. Why not marry me instead? I can be very obedient."
"Fu Qingyun, are you itching for a beating again?" Lin Yuan'er glared fiercely at Fu Qingyun.
"Hmph! See? I told you I was right! She's so fierce; if she marries into your family, it'll definitely be like a roaring lion! Cousin-in-law, think carefully about this lifelong matter," Fu Qingyun said with a smug smile.
"Alright, little girl, stop talking about these inappropriate topics. Your cousin can get angry now; if you keep this up, I can't help you," Mo Ming said helplessly as he looked at Fu Qingyun. This once troublesome little girl no longer scared him but still managed to frustrate him with her comments that didn't match her age.
"Cousin-in-law is biased; he only knows how to help my cousin!" Fu Qingyun pouted slightly in displeasure before jumping down and running into the hall. She picked up the phone and dialed a number. "I'm not going to tonight's event; my cousin-in-law is here! I have to cause some trouble!"
Mo Ming and Lin Yuan'er exchanged speechless glances.
Next, Fu Qingyun stuck close to Mo Ming and chattered away. "Cousin-in-law! I heard Sister Murong and Qianqian are also your girlfriends! I can't believe you're such a playboy!"
"Little girl, this has nothing to do with you. Just focus on studying well; that's enough! Stop asking these boring questions!" Lin Yuan'er replied somewhat annoyedly to Fu Qingyun.
"Fu Qingyun, you’re not listening at all," she continued, "Cousin-in-law, since you already have so many girlfriends, adding one more shouldn’t be a problem, right? Hehe, I’m quite good-looking too; many boys in school chase after me!"
"There’s definitely a problem. Little girl, it’s time to clear out the bad thoughts in your head. Stop talking nonsense about these things. Also, don’t make your cousin angry. Otherwise, I’ll go to your school and publicly spank you!" Mo Ming quickly poked Fu Qingyun's forehead to educate her properly, preventing a verbal battle as he noticed Lin Yuan'er was about to explode.
Fu Qingyun pouted and said, "Hmph, you just like to bully me! If Cousin-in-law doesn’t fancy me, then there’s something wrong with your eyes. With my looks, at least a whole street of people would be chasing after me!"
"My eyes are definitely fine. The people chasing after you are just brats. But those who chase after your cousin? They line up for several streets, and among them are quite a few handsome benefactors. My interest in your cousin proves that my eyes are perfectly fine!" Mo Ming chuckled.
Upon hearing Mo Ming's words, Lin Yuan'er felt her anger towards Fu Qingyun dissipate and smiled, saying, "Little girl, see? Your Cousin-in-law really likes me. You should stop trying to flirt with him; it’s useless!"
"Hmph! Cousin-in-law, you’ve changed; you’re starting to favor my cousin and always speak well of her. Hmph! I don’t believe that when I grow up, I’ll lose to her!" Fu Qingyun said defiantly.
Mo Ming shook his head with a smile and said, "If you don’t want to lose to your cousin, just being prettier than her won’t cut it. There are plenty of beautiful people in the world, but many can’t catch the eye of handsome benefactors. Why? Because they only have looks but lack intelligence!"
"Hmph! Are you trying to say that my cousin is the Creative Queen of the advertising world? If I work hard, I can definitely succeed in the future! I don’t believe I’ll lose to my cousin!" Fu Qingyun said angrily as she pounded her fist on the sofa and declared, "I’m going to charge up right now! Hmph! Just wait and see; I’ll prove that I won’t lose to my cousin!"
With that, Fu Qingyun stormed off.
"This little girl is quite proud; I want to see how long she can keep this up. Hehe, Brother Mo, you’re amazing for making her go study obediently!" Lin Yuan'er said as she leaned against Mo Ming's shoulder.
"Ah, this little cousin of yours has such an advanced way of thinking for her age; it really frustrates me. If I hadn’t provoked her like this, I’d probably be overwhelmed by her nonsensical questions tonight," Mo Ming remarked. His previous words were just casual banter; he didn’t expect it would actually motivate her.
Mo Ming and Lin Yuan'er sat on the sofa watching TV. They were tuned into a talent show where a girl was acting cute and silly, making Lin Yuan'er smile wryly while Mo Ming remained emotionally unaffected. Perhaps time had dulled his mindset; he had the youthful appearance of twenty but the mentality of someone eighty.
After watching for a while, Fuxi returned from her beauty treatment. Seeing Mo Ming there, she sat down on the sofa and chatted for a bit. To avoid hurting Fuxi’s feelings, Mo Ming decided not to tell her about the giant python for now since it had once pursued Fuxi. Although it hadn’t succeeded, there were still some feelings involved. If Fuxi found out that the giant python had died, she would surely be very upset.
After chatting for a while, Fuxi went back to her room to rest because it was time for her beauty sleep. Seeing that Lin Yuan'er was also feeling sleepy, Mo Ming said to her, "Yuan'er, you should go sleep for a bit too. I have something to discuss with Uncle when he returns."
"I'll keep you company while waiting; I don’t know when Uncle will be back," Lin Yuan'er yawned but insisted on staying.
Mo Ming shook his head and replied, "Since you don’t know when he’ll return, you should go sleep instead. I'm a man; staying up late isn’t a big deal for me. But you’re different; staying up late is bad for your skin. You wouldn’t want to age too quickly now, would you?"
"Of course not!" Lin Yuan'er felt conflicted; she wanted to stay with Mo Ming but was also worried about the effects of staying up late on her skin.
"If you don’t want to age quickly, then obediently go sleep. When I get tired, I’ll go sleep too; there’s no need for you to accompany me." With that, Mo Ming picked her up without giving Lin Yuan'er any chance to argue and carried her toward her room.
Mo Ming placed Lin Yuan'er on the bed and gently kissed her forehead before leaving the room. As he walked downstairs, he unexpectedly encountered Fu Meng, who was just entering through the door.
"Mo Ming, why are you here so late? Aren't you going to sleep?" Fu Meng said with a hint of surprise upon seeing Mo Ming at home, but quickly smiled.
"Hehe, I wouldn't come here without a reason. Actually, I have something to discuss with you tonight, Uncle," Mo Ming said, scratching his head awkwardly. Upon reflection, aside from needing to talk to Fu Meng about something, he realized he had never just chatted with him during his free time.
Fu Meng didn’t mind this and smiled lightly. "You’re staying up late just to wait for me to discuss something? Please sit down. If there's anything I can help with, just let me know. You don’t need to be polite with me; I’m your Uncle."
"Um, Uncle, you've been working hard lately. It must be because of what happened in Nanhua City last night?" Mo Ming asked with concern as he noticed Fu Meng's tired expression.
Fu Meng rubbed his temples and nodded. "Yes, things have been unstable in Nanhua City due to Lord Qian's issues. However, under He Yunsong's management, things had finally started to settle down. I didn't expect it to flare up again last night."
"In this matter, the Little Green Society was merely retaliating in self-defense. The real troublemakers are the Hong Gang. They sent many Death Warriors here to create chaos in order to undermine the Little Green Society's influence," Mo Ming said lightly.
"Oh? The Hong Gang?" Fu Meng was somewhat shocked. Many of those arrested last night were outsiders, and despite using various methods, they couldn't get any information from them. He hadn’t realized these people were from the Hong Gang.
Mo Ming nodded. "Yes, those outsiders are definitely affiliated with the Hong Gang. Uncle, I'm here today to ask for your help regarding someone."
