The rain in the mountains finally subsided a little. Although the broad-leaved forest blocked a lot of the already dim light, the bluish-white light still penetrated through the gaps between the leaves and fell in. After all, the dark clouds could not block the sunlight.
The woman who was already sitting in the car frowned in disgust. The humid air made her skirt damp. Not only her skirt, but also her hair was wet. Although she was wearing a man's coat, her mood was still extremely bad.
Cha Mu noticed her displeasure and knew that the delicate little cat was throwing a tantrum because of the weather again. She had always been like this. She didn't like rainy days and would get mad when it rained, and she also didn't like sunny days and would get mad when asked to go out when the sun was strong. This delicate little cat couldn't stand the wind or the rain, and was very difficult to raise.
"Okay, that's how it is in the mountains. Hang in there. Once we cross the border, we'll go to the mall and buy you some clothes."
The man spoke out to coax her in a good-tempered manner.
Nanxi glared at him and said nothing.
"gentlemen--"
The mercenary who was collecting things outside came to the car. Cha Mu looked back, then got out of the car and followed the man to a nearby place.
Only Daozi and Nanxi were left in the car.
"Is Haohao okay?" Nanxi asked.
The person in front seemed to be surprised that she would speak to him. His Adam's apple moved. "Fortunately, after Ah Chuang left, he cried for a long time and no matter how I tried to comfort him, he wouldn't stop. Later, he accepted the fact that he would never come back, and his mother arranged for him to go to school."
"Haohao is very smart and sensible. If he studies hard, he will definitely have a bright future."
The woman behind said casually.
Speaking of his son, a hint of pride spread across his sharp face. "Yes, indeed, that boy is smart and learns quickly. Apart from his love of fighting at school, he's excellent in everything else."
Nanxi smiled faintly, "You seem to have high expectations for Haohao?"
"I'm not very promising, but I hope my son will be. He will be very promising. Mr. promised me that he would arrange a good future for Haohao and send him to the best university."
"Is this why you risk your life for him?" Nanxi changed the subject and her tone became cold and hard.
Daozi was stunned at first, then realized that she didn't really want to chat, but it didn't matter, he said lightly,
“Miss Nan, today, if I do it myself, your man will survive, but if you do it yourself, he will definitely die.
I don't mean to offend you. My son and A Chuang are good friends. Even for this reason, I won't deliberately make things difficult for you. What's more, I owe Brother Lu a favor. He helped me when I was about to die.
I'm a person who can be both kind and vindictive. Your subordinate, the master, didn't intend to keep him, so I quietly spared his life to leave a way out for my son."
Nanxi looked at the man in front of her through the rearview mirror with sharp eyes.
This man named Ling Dao is Cha Mu's confidant, but he seems different from his other subordinates. He speaks little, has almost no social engagements, and is a unique killer. Cha Mu has never treated him as a servant. He pays him a high salary and lets his wife and children live in a villa. Whatever was given to A Chuang in the past, he will also give to Ling Yuhao.
He was never polite and always accepted the work with an open mind. He would do the work when there was work, and go home to be with his wife when there was no work, or take his wife out of the island to see a doctor.
He seemed to be the most special and independent person on the island, so much so that in the three years he had been on the island, he had only seen him a few times, and that was when A Chuang and Ling Yuhao got into trouble and he dragged the two of them to the main building to apologize.
Nanxi didn't say anything for nearly a minute, then relaxed and leaned back, speaking in a light tone.
"Why are you willing to raise someone else's son?"
Ling Dao pursed his lips and smiled, "How can you say he's someone else's son? He became my son when he was in his mother's belly for a month. He wasn't even as big as a bean at that time. I was the one who accompanied them. He's just not my seed, but he is definitely my son."
"It's Han Yingna's luck to meet you." Nanxi nodded.
The person in front rarely smiled, "I think I'm luckier. She followed me, and I never had to wear dirty clothes, eat cold rice, or sleep alone like a ghost.
Although she has a bad temper, she gave me a home, treated me well, and even let Haohao call me dad. No woman would want to be with someone like me. I am lucky that she has been with me for so many years.
"Since you cherish your current home so much, you shouldn't follow Cha Mu. You know his business better than I do. One day, even if he doesn't die, he will be on the run. Do you want Haohao and Han Yingna to follow you around the world to hide from the international police?"
"I'm not a good person either, Miss Nan. My name is on the international wanted list, and even your Chinese police are looking for me. I fought my way out of a dog cage in northern Myanmar, and I rely on killing people to support my wife and children.
I'm covered in blood, but I want my wife and child to live cleanly, so I'm doing you a favor. Miss Nan, I can't betray you, but if that day comes, I'd like to ask you to take care of them."
"My favors are not so easy to sell." Nanxi frowned slightly and looked at the man in front of her.
Ling Dao glanced at her through the rearview mirror and said nothing more.
At this time, Cha Mu, who had been called away, had also returned. His face was not very good, and he said coldly, "Drive."
The car quickly drove to the bottom of the valley, followed the river, passed through several small villages, and finally drove into an open area.
The river gradually became wider, the heavy rain had stopped, the sky in the distance was clear and blue, and a striking golden Buddha statue appeared on the opposite side of the river.
