"Hahahaha..." As soon as the phone was connected, Wu Meng's loud laughter came from the other end, "Good boy, my love for you is not in vain. You fought well in this battle. You screamed loudly, and I felt comfortable all over. You are worthy of being brought up by Ajin. Your brain is really good, really good..."
Baru lit a cigarette irritably and squatted at the door to smoke. "Brother Meng, are you not feeling well? You didn't sleep with your wife in the middle of the night, but called me just to say a few words?"
His tone was indescribably depressed.
"Get lost, a dog's stomach can't hold three grams of oil, and I'm flattering you by praising you a few times, aren't I?" Although Wu Meng was still cursing, there was no trace of anger in his tone.
"Wolf cub, the way you beat me today scared Angsu to death. Just do it this way. If anyone shows up again, I'll beat them up like this. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
"Will you give me whatever I want?" Baru became interested.
The man over there obviously understood his bad temper. "I don't have any weapons, but I'm short of money lately."
"Look at how stingy you are." Baru curled his lips. "Then can you give me a few days off? Our Nan Xiaoxi has been here for several days, and I haven't had a good time with her."
"You only know how to have fun," the other end paused for two seconds, "Just don't delay the war, don't make any trouble, and the second one is the most important. This is Yangon, so you have to put your rebelliousness in check, do you understand?"
"I heard you." The wolf cub threw away his cigarette butt. "Nothing else, right? Brother Meng? Let me make it clear right away. I'm married now, so it's best not to call me on your own time."
"You're useless. Get out of here." Wu Meng snorted and hung up the phone.
Balu was wearing only a pair of pink shorts. He threw away the cigarette butt. Fearing that his wife might dislike him, he went to the guest bedroom on the first floor to brush his teeth before running back.
Nanxi, who was about to fall asleep, was woken up by him again and was so angry that she went crazy.
"Baru, go sleep somewhere else—"
"Wife, aren't you cold? I'm hot. Come, let me warm your feet." As he spoke, he pulled the person who jumped out of the bed back into the quilt and leaned over to press on her.
"Come here, baby, let me warm you up."
Nanxi, “…”
"Honey, let me rub it, just once. Brother Meng will give me a day off tomorrow, so we can sleep all day and then go out to play in the evening, okay?"
"I'm sleepy, can you please be quiet for a while?"
"You go to sleep," he clasped the back of her head with his big hands and kissed her, "Separate, hurry up..."
Not surprisingly, Nanxi slept until noon the next day.
Baru rarely went out. He lay on his back on the bed and let her stick to him for warmth.
Her physique is very special. Even in the hottest weather, her feet will still feel cold from time to time, especially when she is sleeping at night, so the soles of her feet are always pressed against his body.
He liked Nanxi like this kind of person, who relied on him, trusted him, and entrusted her wholeheartedly to him.
"I'm hungry--" Nanxi opened her eyes drowsily and tried to push the man beside her.
"Go wash up, then eat."
Baru rubbed her head and said, "I have something to tell you."
After the meal was over, Baru pulled her to sit in the living room, with a serious face.
"Baby, there's news about your dad."
The calmness on Nanxi's face immediately turned serious. Her moist eyes moved as she stared at his handsome face. She spoke in a trembling voice, "Where is he?"
"It's in Yangon, in the Banyan District. And, you guessed it right, he is the biggest financial supporter behind Aung Suu. Moreover, your father's goal is not Yangon, but Naypyidaw. Yangon is just for military power, and Naypyidaw is the real political power."
"You mean to say that my father wants to use the funds to support a puppet regime?" Nanxi's black and white eyes were full of shock. This was simply unbelievable.
"I also guessed based on their methods. My people have already infiltrated Naypyidaw. If there is any news, we will receive it at any time."
"But the Nan family's money is all managed by a dedicated team, and I inherited it all. The Nan family has also been liquidated. Where did my father get the money?"
Baru sighed, took her hand and squeezed it, "It's likely that what's in your name is only the clean part."
What she meant was that what Nan Zhenguo gave her was just the tip of the iceberg, and the actual assets of the Nan family were much more than she had imagined.
Nanxi sat there without saying a word for a full minute.
"Xixi," Baru pulled her into his arms, "It's okay, this is just speculation."
"No," the woman shook her head. "You don't know my father. The fact that you were able to find him means he already knew I was with you, and he sent the message for me to come find him."
Nanxi smiled bitterly. "I've admired him since I was little. He's elegant, graceful, and unfathomable. I thought he was the most perfect man in the world. Back then, I was so proud to have such a father. I even ignored his indifference towards Mom. But now, I feel sad. Sad for Mom, and for myself."
"When I was his age, I was more elegant and graceful than him. You might as well worship me as him." Baru rubbed her head with a dark face, "You are just stupid, stupid as hell."
Nanxi lazily nestled in his arms, "Yeah, I think so too."
"Do you plan to meet him?" the man asked tentatively.
"Well, I came here just to see him with my own eyes and hear him admit that he lied to me. How could I not go?"
"But baby, I'm afraid if he fools you, you'll abandon me again." Baru tightened his arm around her waist. "You listen to your father so much, what if he doesn't want me anymore?"
"I'm an adult now, and I've done everything I should for him and the Nan family. I listened because I always thought he was right, but it's obvious that he's wrong this time. How can I possibly listen?"
