After finishing dinner, Mo Ming asked Li Xiulan to arrange two adjacent presidential suites for the Four-Faced Buddha and the crocodile. He then had two black men take Yamada Ikko straight to the basement, which had already been abandoned, with all the members having left. However, it was the most suitable place to confine Yamada Ikko.
Once Mo Ming had the two black men bring Yamada Ikko to the basement, he sent them away and looked at Yamada Ikko, who was chained and unable to move, revealing a sinister smile.
Half an hour later, Mo Ming walked out of the basement with a satisfied expression. From inside, Yamada Ikko's anguished screams echoed: "Shura, you bastard! You won't die a good death!"
Mo Ming was not at all angered by the curses of a captive. If one were to get furious every time someone insulted them, living in this world would be unbearable.
Leaving the basement, Mo Ming immediately called Murong Wei in the United States. Upon learning that Gong Gao Yi, also known as Yamada Ikko, had been captured back in Nanhua City, Murong Wei was overjoyed and declared that he would leave for Nanhua City tomorrow!
After hanging up, Mo Ming drove to Starry Rhythm Advertising Company. Murong Lian was seriously explaining some work matters to Han Xue. When she saw Mo Ming arrive, she smiled and walked over, saying, "Look at you! Not accompanying Qianqian today? What brings you here?"
"I missed you, so I came," Mo Ming replied. At some point, he had started teasing Murong Lian; they still bickered but now exchanged more flirtatious remarks!
Of course, it was perfectly normal for couples to say sweet things to each other. If they didn't share such sentiments, they might as well just be friends.
"Get lost! Stop saying such cheesy things in the office!" Murong Lian glanced around shyly and noticed her colleagues sneaking glances; fearing they might overhear something made her face turn even redder. She turned and headed back to her office.
Mo Ming, thick-skinned as he was, chuckled at his colleagues and waved his hand dismissively. "Alright then, less eavesdropping on sweet nothings and more work for you all!"
With that said, Mo Ming followed Murong Lian into the office and locked the door behind them.
"What are you doing here? I still have work to do!" Murong Lian exclaimed as she saw Mo Ming enter, immediately putting down her documents with an annoyed expression.
"Why work? Let's get cozy first," Mo Ming said with a mischievous grin as he approached her, looking every bit like a rogue.
"You're so inappropriate!" Murong Lian shot him a glare and said, "Weren't you getting cozy with Qianqian last night? Why don't you go find her if you're feeling frisky? What do you want with me?"
"Hey, hey, why do I smell a strong scent of vinegar? Are you jealous of Qianqian?" Mo Ming sat on the office desk, reaching out to lift Murong Lian's chin with a smile.
Murong Lian swatted Mo Ming's hand away and rolled her eyes. "Nonsense! Why would I be jealous of Qianqian? I just want to remind you that this is the office. Be serious; if the employees see this, it won't be good!"
"Really not jealous?" Mo Ming chuckled.
"Really not jealous!"
Mo Ming laughed heartily. "I don't believe you unless you give me a kiss."
"You pervert, I'm not giving you one!"
Murong Lian pushed Mo Ming away. "Don't sit on the desk and disturb my work. If I lose a lot of money because of you, you'll regret it!"
"I have an important piece of news. I don't know if you want to hear it," Mo Ming crossed his arms and looked at Murong Lian mysteriously, aiming to pique her curiosity.
Sure enough, Murong Lian's curiosity was aroused. She lifted her eyelids and looked at Mo Ming. "What important news? Don't tell me you're just messing with me. If that's the case, I guarantee you'll regret it!"
As she spoke, Murong Lian tightened her fist and waved it as a warning to Mo Ming.
"I definitely won't trick you. Just give your husband a kiss, and I'll tell you; otherwise..." Mo Ming shrugged and smiled. "Then I won't tell you anything!"
"Fine, here you go!" Murong Lian glanced at Mo Ming suspiciously, then shyly pecked him on the lips, her face turning red as she said, "Alright, I've kissed you. Now hurry up and tell me what the important news is!"
"Blushing after just one kiss? Then why don't you blush in bed?" Mo Ming looked at Murong Lian's shy appearance and couldn't help but laugh.
Murong Lian's face tightened as she kicked Mo Ming lightly. "Don't mention that kind of thing! Otherwise, I won't talk to you anymore!"
"What's there to be afraid of? From now on, she will be my woman..." Seeing Murong Lian's angry expression, Mo Ming stopped joking and said directly, "That bastard Gong Gao Yi has already been captured."
Upon hearing Gong Gao Yi's name, Murong Lian's expression changed, a mix of joy and anger. She grabbed Mo Ming's hand and hurriedly asked, "Where is he? Where is he?"
"Lian Lian, don't worry. He can't escape. I've locked him away in a hidden place; this time, he won't be able to fly away," Mo Ming tightened his grip on Murong Lian and pulled her into his embrace.
Feeling the rhythm of Mo Ming's heartbeat and warmth against her chest, Murong Lian calmed down a bit. "Mo Ming, he killed my mother. We can't let him go. I want him to atone for everything he has done!"
"I know, I know. I will definitely make him pay the price. Lian Lian, I just don't want you to witness something like murder..." Before Mo Ming could finish his sentence, Murong Lian immediately broke free from his hold and said, "No! If I don't see him die with my own eyes, I will never find peace in my life!"
Mo Ming sighed heavily. He was worried that seeing Yamada Ikko die would push Murong Lian's mental state over the edge. However, since she insisted on this, no one could stop her.
"Alright, I can let you see Yamada Ikko die, but you have to promise me that after this is over, you won't dwell on it anymore. Let it become a part of the past," Mo Ming pulled Murong Lian back into his embrace.
Murong Lian nodded and said, "I promise you; I'll be fine."
"I've already informed Father-in-law about the situation. He'll be back tomorrow. Once he returns, I'll take both of you over there. For now, don't think about anything else; just rest well. I'll stay by your side," Mo Ming held Murong Lian tightly.
Murong Lian also clung tightly to Mo Ming's waist, burying her head in his chest as she greedily enjoyed the sense of safety and warmth.
The two of them stayed like this for the entire afternoon until Han Xue knocked on the door to deliver some documents, breaking the tranquility. "President Mu, the international cosmetics company has sent over the contract; please take a look."
"You go ahead and handle your business; let's have dinner together tonight."
Mo Ming immediately released Murong Lian and got up to open the door. Noticing Han Xue's strange gaze towards him, he didn't mind and walked straight out.
Murong Lian carefully reviewed the contract that Han Xue brought over before handing it back to her, informing her that everything was fine and instructing her to inform the advertising company that they could sign the contract for cooperation on a chosen date.
“Mo Ming, I've finished my tasks, let's go visit Yuan'er and grab a bite to eat,” Murong Lian said with a smile.
Mo Ming asked in confusion, “Isn't Yuan'er in the office?”
“She didn't tell you? She's on her period today and feeling unwell, so she won't be coming in,” Murong Lian said, surprised that Mo Ming didn't already know.
“Oh, that girl must not want me to worry and didn't tell me,” Mo Ming nodded in understanding and said, “Let's go check on Yuan'er.”
……
Mo Ming and Murong Lian went to the supermarket to buy some meat and vegetables before heading to Fu Meng's house. As soon as Fu Qingyun saw Mo Ming, she rushed over and hugged him tightly, saying, “Cousin-in-law, you're here!”
“Yeah, I'm here! Isn't that obvious?” Mo Ming pushed Fu Qingyun away gently and handed her all the bags he was holding. “Where's your cousin?”
“She’s upstairs in her room; her period came and she's in a lot of pain!” Fu Qingyun pouted. “Hmph, Cousin-in-law only cares about her while leaving all the dirty work to me!”
Murong Lian playfully pinched Fu Qingyun's cheek and said teasingly, “Your cousin is your Cousin-in-law's wife. If he doesn't care about her, who will? Now stop talking so much and help me out in the kitchen; I need to cook!”
“Mo Ming, why don't you go check on Yuan'er?” Murong Lian said while pushing Fu Qingyun toward the kitchen.
Mo Ming went to Lin Yuan'er's room. She seemed to be asleep, not making a sound. He carefully approached her bedside and looked at Lin Yuan'er's pale face, feeling a pang of sympathy as he reached out to touch her cheek.
“Hmm…” Lin Yuan'er stirred slightly at his touch and woke up. Seeing Mo Ming, she managed a faint smile and said, “Brother Mo, you’re here.”
Mo Ming nodded and scolded gently, “Silly girl, why didn’t you let me know you were feeling unwell?”
“Hehe, Brother Mo, I’m just on my period. What good would it do to tell you? You can’t share my pain,” Lin Yuan'er replied with a smile.
Upon hearing Lin Yuan'er, Mo Ming recalled the first time he helped a woman change her sanitary pad and couldn't help but smile wryly.
"Isn't there medication for menstrual pain?" Mo Ming asked.
Lin Yuan'er shook her head and said, "Medication can be harmful; if I can avoid it, I will. It's nothing serious, just a bit of pain. I slept for a day, and I'm feeling much better now."
"That's good to hear. Just stay put for now. Tonight, Lian Lian will personally make soup for you. Just lie in bed and rest well," Mo Ming said as he noticed Lin Yuan'er trying to get up and gently pressed her back down.
"Then Brother Mo, keep me company and talk with me. It’s so boring lying in bed alone!"
"Sure." Mo Ming sat by the bed and chatted with Lin Yuan'er. Initially, there wasn't much to discuss, but once Lin Yuan'er began sharing stories from her childhood, the conversation flowed endlessly.
Murong Lian finished cooking and sent Fu Qingyun to call Mo Ming and Lin Yuan'er for dinner. Mo Ming had planned to go downstairs to bring something up for Lin Yuan'er, but she insisted on going down to eat since she felt better. Reluctantly, Mo Ming agreed.
Fu Meng had a dinner engagement and wouldn't be back for dinner, while Fuxi went out for dinner and a movie with someone. The four of them—Mo Ming, Lin Yuan'er, Fu Qingyun, and Murong Lian—sat together eating and chatting until around eight o'clock when Mo Ming drove Murong Lian home.
Mo Ming wasn't worried about Murong Lian being alone; he stayed with her. That night, they fell asleep together without doing anything else.
