Chapter 708 - 708 Who Would Have the Last Laugh?
Covering his face with his palm, Ning Yiyuan closed his deep eyes. A storm was brewing in his eyes. Victory or defeat, victory or defeat, it all depended on a single thought!
Could he take the bet?
Do you dare to bet?
If it had been a dozen years ago, Ning Yiyuan would not have hesitated at all. Even if it was a battle with a small chance of winning, he would have the courage to fight it!
He had never been afraid of getting injured, nor was he afraid of failure. Madness and fierce fighting were the genes that flowed in his blood!
But now… He had a bond and a weakness!
How dare you be so impudent?
You still dare to be arrogant?
He had to find a way out for the people he loved!
With a bitter smile, Ning Yiyuan finally opened his terminal and contacted one of Dark Ocean Galaxy’s higher-ups.
“…”
“…”
The video call was connected, but neither side spoke first.
Only the sound of deep and shallow breathing reverberated in her ears.
After a long while, Ning Yiyuan suddenly spoke up, “Do you still remember the favor you owed me back then?”
Ning Yiyuan had saved this man’s wife by accident when he’d come to the Dark Ocean Galaxy a few years ago, and it was because of this that he’d gotten a promise from him.
“Tell me, what do you want in exchange?”
The other party’s tone was calm, as if he had expected it. He was not surprised by Ning Yiyuan’s video call.
“If we lose this battle,” Ning Yiyuan’s voice sounded a little bitter, “Please help me… Protect my family!”
The other party was silent for a moment, and his tone revealed a bit of surprise, “I thought you would suggest Dark Ocean Galaxy to send troops to help you?”
“You also have your difficulties.” Ning Yiyuan replied indifferently.
He knew very well that although this high-ranking official’s position in Dark Ocean Galaxy was very prominent, it was impossible for him to interfere in such a big battle just because of a favor. However, after the incident, he still had the ability to protect Little Chu and the others!
“Alright,” he said. After thinking for a moment, the man agreed.
Once the war in Weichu City was lost, Mo Chu and the two children would naturally become the target of public criticism. It was inevitable that Dark Ocean Galaxy would fight with them, but it was still within their means to ensure their safety.
…
After getting the answer he wanted, Ning Yiyuan hung up.
He had been busy the whole day, but he was not sleepy at all. Under the cold moonlight, he sat in his study for the whole night.
Mo Chu also stood outside the door.
There was complete silence.
…
“I’m telling you, Ning Yiyuan!”
Mo Chu’s heart still ached when she recalled the conversation she heard last night!
“Don’t even think about abandoning us. You’re the only one I’ve set my eyes on in this life!”
That sentence was like a powerful bomb, instantly shaking Ning Yiyuan’s heart!
No one knew Little Chu’s personality better than him. Even though they had been married for many years, this girl was still calm and shy in front of outsiders. Even when he occasionally kissed her on the cheek, she would blush with embarrassment.
But now, in front of so many people, she was brave and stubborn enough to say those words. In that instant, Ning Yiyuan felt that he had lost completely!
The high wall that had been firmly erected instantly shattered to pieces, leaving only a warm and dense mist.
Seeing that the two of them were looking at each other and were about to release the rotten smell of love… Zuo Lin quickly said, “I’ve said it before, Boss. You can’t do this, see? Now it’s come true… Aiyo, why did you hit me?”
Halfway through his words, Zuo Lin suddenly glared angrily at Zhong Wen beside him. Don’t think that just because we’ve known each other for many years, you can get all touchy with me? I’m going to leave my innocence to my future wife!
Seeing this, Zhong Wen could not help but roll his eyes. The doubt that had troubled him for many years rose in his heart again. Tell me, with this guy’s intelligence, how did he get to where he is today?
One had to know that because he was talkative and insensible, this guy had been secretly taught a lesson by Boss many times. Why couldn’t he remember?
However, it was also because of Zuo Lin’s teasing that the atmosphere in the office suddenly became much more relaxed.
As he held Mo Chu’s hand, Ning Yiyuan could not help but look up and size up his brothers at the door. He was rather emotional. “Are you guys really planning to stay here?”
Qin Yue, Song Qingsong, and others had nothing to do with this matter. If they stayed here, their future would be uncertain!
“Aiyo! There’s no choice, who asked your Spirit Food Restaurant to only exist in your Weichu City? I’m a master, and I love it!” They had not seen each other for a few years, but Qin Yue’s funny character still had not changed. Of course, the degree of his thick skin had not decreased from that year!
Mo Yang and Almighty Song did not say anything, but their determined eyes were enough to express their attitude!
“Come on, you dare to call yourself a master?” Zuo Lin could not help but complain, “Don’t just be laying on the ground when you go to the battlefield!”
“Then let’s see on the battlefield who will be the first to get down!” Qin Yue raised his eyebrows and said, “The loser will wash the other person’s socks for a month. It must be hand-washed and can not be replaced by robots!”
“F*ck! Your socks are scarier than biological weapons, okay?”
…
Listening to the banter around them, Ning Yiyuan and Mo Chu’s hearts gradually calmed down. When their eyes met, the corners of their lips could not help but curl up slightly.
It was just to fight a battle, right?
Looking at the people around him, Ning Yiyuan’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, as bright as the sun. He wanted to see who would have the last laugh.
