Xu Mu returned to his private room and found that several dishes had been served.
Ye Tong and Meng Wanyue were sitting together, chatting.
"What are you chatting about?"
Xu Mu closed the door of the private room and sat down beside Ye Tong, asking.
"About our past."
Ye Tong looked at Meng Wanyue with a smile. She thought this younger sister was very nice.
If she became Xu Mu's woman, Ye Tong wouldn't mind.
Of course, it had to be up to Meng Wanyue herself. After all, most women wouldn't agree to such a thing.
This time, since Xu Mu had to drive, he didn't drink.
Ye Tong and Meng Wanyue drank quite a lot of foreign wine.
Although the alcohol content was not high, Xu Mu noticed that a blush gradually appeared on their cheeks.
It seemed that neither of them was very good at drinking.
Halfway through the meal, Meng Wanyue was already a bit drunk. She usually only drank beverages and rarely touched alcohol.
As a killer, she needed to keep a clear mind at all times.
However, she could sense sincerity from Ye Tong.
Moreover, since the Dragon King had asked her to protect Ye Tong, she also instinctively had a good impression of her.
Xu Mu sat there, eating while using his perception to check on the three people upstairs.
Anyway, he already knew what they were planning to do, so it didn't matter if he listened to the recording later.
After about half an hour, the three people upstairs dispersed.
They left the private room and took the elevator downstairs.
Just twenty seconds later, the waiter who had received money from Xu Mu entered the private room. First, he removed the bug from the bottom of the bowl.
Then he went to the bathroom and flushed it away with water.
Xu Mu couldn't help but smile. This guy was quite cautious. Maybe he was afraid of being discovered.
He continued to expand his perception to the limit.
He saw Qian Gang getting into a car and leaving on the street.
Lin Yang and Li Feipeng also drove away together and disappeared into the night.
"I can't drink anymore. Sister Ye, I have to go to work tomorrow. Let's call it a day today."
Meng Wanyue's face was flushed as she pushed the wine glass away.
She already felt a bit dizzy in the head.
"Otherwise, come home with us today. There are plenty of rooms in our house."
Ye Tong was also a bit tipsy at this time and invited her actively.
"No, no. I'd better go home. I can't disturb you."
Although Meng Wanyue was a bit drunk, her mind was still a bit clear.
"Okay then. We'll take you home first."
Ye Tong stood up at this time and put her hand on Meng Wanyue's shoulder.
Seeing the two of them like this, Xu Mu walked over actively. "Let me help you."
"Thank you, husband."
Ye Tong blushed as she looked at Xu Mu.
[Favorability +10]
Xu Mu was a bit surprised. It could be said that he and Ye Tong had had a few intense days together.
She had never called him by this address before.
Xu Mu supported the two of them on each side and left the private room. They took the elevator downstairs.
It was evening, and there were quite a few people in the restaurant.
Countless men were looking in Xu Mu's direction.
Jealousy was written all over their faces.
Damn it, two at once, and both of them were great beauties.
Wasn't this a bit too showy!
Xu Mu took the two of them to his car. He put them in the back row and then closed the door.
After that, he drove to the place where Meng Wanyue lived.
...
He parked the car by the roadside and then helped Meng Wanyue out of the car. "We're here."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Xu..."
Meng Wanyue staggered out of the car. "You guys go back. I can go up by myself."
"I'll take you up."
Seeing that she almost fell while walking, Xu Mu stepped forward actively to support her.
Meng Wanyue was a bit grateful. After entering the community, Meng Wanyue showed Xu Mu the way.
When they came to the downstairs of the corresponding unit, Xu Mu found that Meng Wanyue couldn't even lift her feet to step on the stairs.
He rolled his eyes. Was she really that bad at drinking?
He went behind Meng Wanyue and hugged her slender waist from behind, then walked up the stairs.
"Mr. Xu, how did you know there was a bug on me?"
Meng Wanyue squinted her eyes and said softly.
"You're not an ordinary person. If I'm not wrong, you came for Ye Tong and Ye Yu."
Of course, Xu Mu knew Meng Wanyue's purpose, but he definitely couldn't be too accurate.
"Sure enough, you're Mr. Xu."
Meng Wanyue took a breath in the middle. "How did you guess?"
Xu Mu thought for a moment and then came up with a reason. "Remember before in the commercial market, when you saw them being wronged and took the initiative to teach those people a lesson. I didn't tell you to do it."
Meng Wanyue seemed to be deep in thought.
"But at the fighting center, when that man mocked me, you didn't react at all. It was only after I asked you to do it that you helped me teach him a lesson."
Xu Mu pressed the elevator button with a smile. "It shows that in your heart, they are more important than me."
"Amazing."
Meng Wanyue gave a thumbs up. Then she raised her arm and pressed the button for the 16th floor with her thumb. "Mr. Xu, you're completely different from what I investigated."
"Now can you tell me your purpose?" Xu Mu asked softly.
He knew it himself, but it was completely different if Meng Wanyue told him voluntarily.
If Meng Wanyue told him voluntarily, it meant that in her heart, the relationship between the two of them had become closer.
"I'm here to protect them. They are the Dragon King's family, and I'm the Dragon King's subordinate." Meng Wanyue explained.
"Who is the Dragon King?"
Xu Mu asked knowingly.
"He's a terrifying figure, a hegemon overseas. It only took him three short years to rise from obscurity to the top."
Meng Wanyue sighed. "He only learned recently that the Ye family he belonged to had been destroyed, and the direct descendants of the Ye family had all disappeared. He spent a long time investigating the whereabouts of the Ye family head, but he didn't find any clues."
Xu Mu nodded secretly. According to the plot, the Ye family head, who was also Ye Chen, the Dragon King's adoptive father, had been killed.
It was normal that he couldn't find any clues.
"Later, the Dragon King changed his strategy and investigated his sisters. Finally, he found out that they were in the Xu family in Jiangbei."
As Meng Wanyue was speaking, the elevator had already reached the 16th floor. "The Dragon King sent me here first to see how Ye Tong and Ye Yu were doing."
Xu Mu supported Meng Wanyue out of the elevator. Meng Wanyue came to the door on the left, pressed her fingerprint, and opened the door.
After they walked in, Xu Mu saw a telescope by the window.
"Is this for monitoring me?"
"Yeah."
Meng Wanyue looked a bit embarrassed.
"Have you reported to the Dragon King?" Xu Mu asked.
"Yes, I said they are doing well now. The people in the Xu family take good care of them."
Meng Wanyue nodded gently.
Xu Mu let out a sigh of relief, hoping that such an answer could hold off the Dragon King for a while and give him some time to develop.
"I'll help you to your room."
Xu Mu took Meng Wanyue and pushed open the bedroom door. When he saw the things in the suitcase beside, he rolled his eyes.
The things she brought were really complete.
There were bugs, pinhole cameras, night-vision goggles, and even anesthetic guns, daggers, and so on.
Meng Wanyue staggered to the bed and lay down, closing her eyes. Her breathing gradually became steady.
Suddenly, she actually started to take off her sweatpants.
Xu Mu stood there, stunned on the spot.
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
