C1229 Sooner or Later You'll Find out
Chiang Lee laughed as she watched Chiang Lee run away. When she heard the laughter behind her, Chiang Lee could not help but increase her speed.
However, after waiting for Jiang Girl for a week, the smile on Mo Nan's face instantly disappeared. He calmly pushed open the door and entered the office.
In the dark room, Pen Holding Man was sitting cross-legged on the bed in the corner, cultivating.
It seemed that Elder Chiang had recovered quite well recently.
"He's here."
Pen Holding Man opened his eyes and smiled amiably when he heard the door open.
"Why are you looking for me?" He pulled a chair to the side and sat down next to Elder Chiang. Mo Nan helped him take his pulse and asked.
"Let's talk about it first." Before Pen Holding Man could say anything, Mo Nan warned him.
"Don't expect me to help you deal with the Dark Department. I can't even handle my own matters. I don't have time to help you."
If he had the time, he might as well accompany Bingqing and the other girls.
Pen Holding Man fell into silence.
Originally, he called Mo Nan over to discuss this.
After he woke up, he had heard his granddaughter, Chiang Lee, tell him about the situation. He didn't have time to feel upset or sad. During the time he was unconscious, the Dark Department had left the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce, which caused him to have a lot of work to do and many things to arrange.
This included how to deal with his relationship with the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce in the future.
His bones were still connected to his muscles.
The only difference was that even if he would still interact with the Chamber of Commerce, he would still gain a lot of freedom and power.
But these weren't the most important things.
He only had half a year left.
Although Chiang Lee's reputation in the Dark Department was high, she could not become a qualified leader. The reason was very simple. Chiang Lee was only a martial arts disciple.
In the Ancient Martial World, the strong was the strong. Without strength, everything was empty talk.
For example, people with a net worth of ten million and a net worth of a million would not listen to the suggestions of people with a net worth of ten million even if they had the same goal.
Over time, there was only one outcome for Dark Department.
Dismissed.
Pen Holding Man thought about many things and found many solutions, but in the end, he still decided to talk to Mo Nan.
However, before he could say anything, someone had already rejected him.
Pen Holding Man smiled bitterly and tried to persuade him with righteousness. "You still don't understand me. Or should I say, you still blame me for dragging you into this circle back then?"
"I'm already like this. Can't I let you calm down?"
Looking at the miserable look of the old man, his eyes no longer had the demeanor he had when he first saw him. Mo Nan sighed and shook his head.
"Not really."
To be exact, he had never blamed Pen Holding Man.
"Do you think the action of the chamber of commerce is unnecessary?" Pen Holding Man asked.
"Or do you not believe that the Dark Department can reestablish the rules of Ancient Martial World?" Pen Holding Man asked.
The more Pen Holding Man spoke, the more excited he became.
He had put in a lot of effort and time for Mo Nan, but now that it was time to reap the rewards, he realized that this young man was no longer under his control.
"Hiss."
Mo Nan took a deep breath and wanted to nod his head. However, facing the sincere gaze of the old man in front of him, he still said softly in the end.
"None of them. It has nothing to do with these."
However, he was still too soft-hearted.
He could not bear to do it. Otherwise, Elder Chiang would never be able to achieve the goal he had worked so hard for his whole life. Therefore, it was meaningless.
He knew more than Pen Holding Man.
The rules of Ancient Martial World were actually set by the Hidden Clan. Elder Chiang had to do it. To put it bluntly, it would be strange if he could succeed.
He didn't say anything about it.
Destroying a person's hopes and dreams was the cruelest thing.
Mo Nan said helplessly, "As for me, it's true that I love to cause trouble, but I don't have that much ambition. The life I really want is to live by my wife's side. At most, I can guarantee that the people around me will not be bullied."
"Changing the wishes of the Ancient Martial World doesn't match me at all. So, you should look for someone else."
"I'm going to die. I promise you. In the future, when Chiang Lee encounters trouble, I won't sit back and do nothing."
That was all he could do.
To be honest.
old rascal was not sure if that was what he really thought. However, the few things that had happened recently made him certain that as a man, he could not even protect the people around him. What right did he have to talk about other things?
He wasn't as strong as Elder Chiang thought. Instead, he was weaker.
"Is that what you think?"
Pen Holding Man murmured, his expression turning bitter.
After a moment, he narrowed his eyes and smiled. "It's okay. Sooner or later, you will realize that it won't be easy to protect the people around you."
"Then I won't help you manage the Dark Department."
Mo Nan rolled his eyes at him. In his heart, he cursed the old man for not being able to spit out any ivory from his mouth. He was cursing him for not being good at this time. He deserved what he had done today.
"Alright, rest in peace."
He did not intend to continue chatting with Pen Holding Man. Mo Nan released his hand from Pen Holding Man's wrist. He paused for a moment and said,
"You have recovered well," he said. There is a high probability that you have recovered well. " If you have any discomfort, let Chiang Lee tell me about it. "
Pen Holding Man's face was yellow and his muscles were thin. It was as if half of his body had fallen into the yellow soil. His physical condition would continue to deteriorate in the future.
old rascal did not like the atmosphere when they met.
It was better to not see each other.2
"That's good. Seeing this old man makes you feel bad." Pen Holding Man narrowed his eyes.
Mo Nan was speechless. He waved his hand and stood up. "Whatever you think."
After saying that, he ignored Pen Holding Man and walked out of the office.
As soon as he left the office, he saw Chiang Wey walking towards him. "Mr Mo, you came out just in time. The one you invited is here."
Lin Liuzao?
Mo Nan suddenly realized what was going on. He walked into the bar with a serious expression on his face.
When he returned to the front desk of the bar, he saw Lin Liuzao leisurely sitting in the booth with his third brother. Everyone in the bar was especially nervous and looked at them warily.
Among them, the Vermillion Bird was the leader.
Speaking of which, when this woman was investigating a big family, she should have also appeared around the Lin family.
Lin Liuzao also looked at her from time to time. The faint smile on her face made the Vermillion Bird even more uncomfortable.
However, Mo Nan knew that this Lin actually didn't know anything. It was just that the Vermillion Bird was too eye-catching, and that was why he was trying to make things difficult for her.
"Stop looking."
He walked over and blocked Lin Liuzao's line of sight. At the same time, he turned around and instructed everyone.
"It has nothing to do with you guys. Go do what you need to do."
The moment he spoke, everyone dispersed.
Those who should say or not, old rascal's words in Dark Department were probably even more effective than Chiang Lee's.
"Why are you so anxious to find me?" Lin Liuzao withdrew his gaze and asked unhappily.
As he asked, he muttered,
"I've been very busy recently."
"Also, about Lin Ze, you are. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Mo Nan probed, "Is he you?"
"Cousin brother."
Lin Liuzao said immediately.
"Cousin must not be close to you." Mo Nan curled his lips. If they had a good relationship, Lin Liuzao would have called and questioned him.
