Gan Tang ran up to Mo Huaixing with satisfaction and said gently, "Dad said he'll arrange fifty capable subordinates for you. You can choose!"

"Young Miss!"

"Go on!" Gan Tang pushed him down the steps.

Soon, Mo Huaixing selected fifty people, most of whom had whip marks and had been beaten. But basically, every business under He Zhong's name had someone selected.

"Thank you, Fourth Uncle!" Gan Tang stood on the steps and bowed deeply to He Zhong in front of her. The gesture looked more like a provocation than anything else.

He Zhong suppressed his anger and waved his hand.

Gan Tang walked up to Mo Huaixing and asked, "Do you have a place for them to stay?"

Mo Huaixing was speechless; his position as hall master was still a nominal one.

“Simple, I’ll just ask my dad for a building.” Gan Tang looked at the fifty people and instructed, “Go back and pack your things first, I’ll have Yuan Biao pick you up in a bit.”

With that, she took Mo Huaixing's hand and left under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Reaching a deserted path, Gan Tang released Mo Huaixing and patted her chest lightly: "You scared me to death! I was really afraid you'd foolishly choose Yu Dayong." If you had chosen Yu Dayong, she feared she would have had to respectfully send him back after being reprimanded by Lu Zhengqian.

Mo Huaixing coldly asked, "Is this the explanation you asked Mr. Fu for?"

“Yes!” Gan Tang stepped forward and asked with a smile, “Aren’t you happy to have so many people under you in the future?”

Mo Huaixing took a step back and said urgently, "Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid that He Zhong will retaliate against you later?"

Gan Tang took another step forward, almost pressing herself against him, and whispered, looking up at him, "You're here to protect me!"

The woman's gentle breath brushed against his earlobe, tickling and tingling, and Mo Huaixing recoiled in fright.

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore!" Gan Tang looked around, her clear eyes becoming deep, as if trying to probe into his heart. She lowered her voice and asked, "Afterwards, won't He Zhong suspect that Lu Zhengqian used my name to deliberately weaken his power? As long as they are in internal strife, won't you have an opportunity?"

Mo Huaixing stepped back in shock. Gan Tang quickly wrapped her arms around his waist and complained, "Don't back down anymore, or you'll fall!"

Behind them lay the clear lake water, reflecting their figures perfectly, so harmoniously. Gan Tang looked on, a sudden pang of sadness welling up within her, and she quickly released the man before her.

"I'll go ask Dad for a room, you go and make some arrangements too!"

After saying that, Gan Tang hurriedly slipped away.

Things went smoothly, and Lu Zhengqian quickly arranged a building for Mo Huaixing, since that was originally his right as the head of the hall.

Gan Tang didn't go over. She stayed in her room, stood by the window, and looked at the busy moving crowd below, as well as at Mo Huaixing.

Time passed little by little, and the shadows on the ground grew fainter and fainter.

Gan Tang finally made up her mind and dialed Mo Huaixing's number: "I want to go back to Yuanhuai Manor. Can you take me back?"

The word "good" came through the microphone, and Gan Tang's heart was pounding with excitement.

She ran to the wardrobe and started picking out clothes. Unfortunately, she hadn't been staying there long, and there were only about ten pieces of clothing inside.

Gan Tang stood in front of the mirror, trying on one dress after another, and finally chose a mediocre light blue knee-length dress.

Then she went into the bathroom to put on makeup.

By the time Gan Tang came out, it was completely dark. Mo Huaixing was leaning against the hood of the car waiting for her, still wearing that clean and crisp white shirt.

Countless times, he waited for her downstairs, but Gan Tang had never been so nervous before. Her hand rested on the pale yellow shoulder bag, clenching it until it crumpled.

She looked beautiful today, with long, flowing hair adorned with a pink pearl hair clip behind her left ear. In Mo Huaixing's memory, she had only ever dressed up so meticulously when she was dating Chu Jiahe, but now Chu Jiahe was abroad.

As Gan Tang approached, Mo Huaixing snapped out of his daze and hurriedly went around to the front of the car to open the door for her.

"I want to sit in the front!"

What does it mean to sit in the front?

Gan Tang stared straight at the man in front of her, but Mo Huaixing turned his head to the side, so she couldn't see his expression at all.

The sapphire blue sports car drove out of Qinglong Bay and headed towards the bustling metropolis where thousands of lights were lit up.

Gan Tang turned her head to look at Mo Huaixing and said, "I'm hungry, shall we go get something to eat?"

"I have something to do tonight and I have to rush back." For some reason, Mo Huaixing had a feeling that something bad would happen that night, so he didn't dare to stay by her side any longer.

Gan Tang gave a disappointed "Oh," and opened the car window to let the wind blow in. The summer breeze, even at night, was warm.

When they came to a red light, Gan Tang pointed to the bushes beside her, as if she had made a great discovery, and exclaimed in surprise, "Mo Huaixing, look, a butterfly!"

Mo Huaixing didn't look at it and gave a perfunctory "hmm".

Gan Tang asked, "Is it pretty?"

Mo Huaixing turned his head and saw a pretty and charming face.

"It looks great!" He turned his head away in a panic.

Gan Tang leaned back in her chair and gently patted his shoulder. "Then catch one for me!"

Mo Huaixing frowned: "Catching butterflies?"

Gan Tang nodded and said matter-of-factly, "I asked you for fifty people, so it's not too much for you to help me catch a butterfly, is it?"

Mo Huaixing was on the verge of tears: "Boss, do you know how much it would cost to support fifty more people a month? I only have one club that makes money."

Who were the members of the Green Dragon Gang under? Who supported them? At first, he didn't realize it, but now, just thinking about it gives him a headache.

"No problem!" Gan Tang said generously, "I'll raise them for you!"

"Why should you help me raise them?"

"You're mine!"

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat ambiguous. Gan Tang quickly suppressed the words that had just slipped out: "Busy man, catching a butterfly only takes five minutes, it won't take up much of your time, will it?"

Mo Huaixing crossed the intersection and slowly stopped at the roadside.

Before even entering the city, the roadside was overgrown with weeds and dotted with wildflowers.

"Where are the butterflies?" Mo Huaixing walked step by step into the depths of the bushes. Gan Tang followed behind him, watching his serious expression, and couldn't help but chuckle.

I never realized he was so adorably silly!

"Yes, I have it!"

Where?

Mo Huaixing looked in the direction she was pointing, but saw nothing. He turned back in confusion and saw the smiling girl rushing towards him.

He instinctively raised his hand to steady himself, but his body instinctively pushed backward, and he crashed into the tree trunk with a thud.

It was a sturdy, century-old tree, broad and reliable.

Gan Tang braced himself against the tree trunk, pulling the person into his arms. His eyes darkened, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you?"

"Boss, what's wrong?" Mo Huaixing's eyes also changed.

Gan Tang said directly, "My mother said today that I am her biological daughter."

Mo Huaixing forced himself to remain calm: "Perhaps the babies were switched at the hospital, and your adoptive mother doesn't know either."

Gan Tang retorted, "My child with Lu Zhengqian is two or three years younger than me. If it were you, would you have switched the babies?"

"That means your adoptive mother is deliberately lying to you!" Mo Huaixing reminded him in a deep voice, "You must believe in science!"

Gan Tang scoffed, "That's my mother who gave birth to me. If I don't trust her, why should I trust that cold, lifeless machine?"
