Ouch, that hurts! Why did you step on me?

Ye Feng, who had just made a heartfelt confession, was attacked by Long Xiaowu.

She gently pushed Ye Feng away and said calmly, "Your acting skills can't fool me."

Ye Feng: "......"

This is the only thing about Long Xiaowu that gives Ye Feng a headache.

She's too clever; you can't fool her at all.

He had originally planned to take advantage of this rare opportunity to make a heartfelt confession and win over Long Xiaowu.

But to everyone's surprise, this girl wasn't buying it at all.

Never mind, let's wait and see.

But it wasn't like we gained nothing at all.

At least this time, Long Xiaowu was willing to be held by him in public.

This is a huge step forward.

This was practically a declaration to her subordinates about the relationship between Ye Feng and her.

It's just that it's still missing a formal title.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng felt incredibly happy.

Perhaps, we can completely win over Long Xiaowu here.

Ye Feng had many questions about Long Xiaowu.

for example......

Ahem, it can't be said, it can't be said!

It took another two hours to wipe out all of Scarface's men in the base.

Then they began to tally up the harvest.

Although this trip involved considerable risks, the gains were also enormous.

First of all, the weapons that originally required Long Xiaowu to spend more than 2 billion to buy can now be purchased for free.

Secondly, this base is now theirs too.

Finally, there was the armory in another location that Ye Feng had gotten from Scarface.

We need to send someone to investigate that armory first.

Only after confirming that there are no problems can the moving process begin.

This base is not far from the main base.

We can send some people to be stationed here to garrison and develop the area, thus creating a pincer movement.

Ye Feng left the rest to his own devices.

At this moment, he and Long Xiaowu were riding in a modified car back to the base.

Ye Feng looked at Long Xiaowu, who had only simply washed her face but was still incredibly charming.

He chuckled and said, "I can say that I saved your life this time. According to ancient customs, shouldn't you repay me with your body?"

"There's no time like the present, let's do it tonight."

Long Xiaowu gently slapped away Ye Feng's groping hand that was on her shoulder, and said calmly, "Even if you don't come, my men can still rescue me."

"Nonsense!" Ye Feng retorted, "Your men are indeed quite strong in combat."

But to get you out, we'll have to fight the enemy for at least another four or five hours.

To put it bluntly, by then, you'll probably be dead.

Ye Feng said it in a rather exaggerated tone.

Mainly, I wanted Long Xiaowu to make some sacrifice.

Even if it's not about offering oneself in marriage, taking a step back, or even two steps back, is acceptable.

It's unclear whether Long Xiaowu softened her heart or was persuaded by Ye Feng.

After a moment of silence, she said, "I'll come to see you tonight."

Ye Feng nodded lightly, but his heart was filled with joy.

Okay, okay, so we're finally going to take our relationship to the next level, right?

It was worth all the hard work and traveling all this way.

He was already thinking about how to keep Long Xiaowu here tonight.

Back at the base safely, Xiaoqing was the first to throw herself into Long Xiaowu's arms: "Waaah, Miss, I'm so glad you're safe and sound. You have no idea how worried I was."

Ye Feng cried when he saw her.

The bond between the master and servant was quite deep.

It was already past six o'clock in the evening. Apart from the base, which was still brightly lit, the rest of the area was pitch black.

The base is already considered quite good.

Many local residents cannot even have access to simple things like clean water and enough food every day.

However, if this place can undergo a complete overhaul, it will have immense potential for the future.

Because he was thinking about his promise to Long Xiaowu later.

Ye Feng returned to his residence.

I ate something simple, then took a shower and brushed my teeth.

Lying in a bathtub full of hot water, all the fatigue of the day disappears.

Ye Feng held a glass of red wine in his hand, taking sips here and there.

At this moment, he wasn't thinking about Long Xiaowu, but rather about building a business in this region.

After witnessing the distorted environment here firsthand, he had some thoughts.

The disadvantages of this place are chaos, lack of rules, low awareness, and low education levels among its people.

Many people have never attended school in their entire lives.

Its advantage is that it has a wide variety of energy sources.

Natural gas, oil, gold, etc.

If there is proper guidance and future planning.

This would bring Ye Feng incredibly generous returns every year in the future.

Of course, Ye Feng alone couldn't possibly handle it all.

To control this area, which covers more than 1,000 square kilometers and is slightly larger than three Demon Cities.

It would be impossible to do this without investing hundreds of billions of dollars.

In addition, various talents and connections are needed.

In this respect, the Long family is still much stronger than Ye Feng.

I'll have a good talk with Long Xiaowu later and see what she thinks.

After taking a shower, I dressed neatly.

Ye Feng looked at his handsome and suave self in the mirror and chuckled.
