Chapter 244 Do you know how to write 'decency'? (10 more)
Liu Jie died instantly from the fall, with no chance of rescue.
His death was due to madness, a complete loss of sanity; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so tragic.
That very night Liu Jie died, Mo Xing drove to a graveyard in Donghai City, carrying a bouquet of flowers, which he placed in front of a tombstone.
Embedded on the tombstone was a photo of a woman as beautiful as a flower, with large characters inscribed below it: "My eternal beloved, left by Mo Xing."
This woman was Mo Xing's first love from his university days, who had been murdered after rejecting Liu Jie. Because there was no evidence, even though Mo Xing knew Liu Jie was the murderer, he could do nothing.
This was also the reason he'd been opposing Liu Jie all these years. If it were possible, Mo Xing would have flayed Liu Jie alive.
Mo Xing wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, cracking a slight smile as he looked at the beautiful girl in the photo, "Liu Jie is dead. I hope you can have a better time over there. I miss you!"
After speaking, Mo Xing reached out to touch the photo on the tombstone, his eyes bloodshot. He took a deep breath and turned to leave.
Outside the cemetery, Ye Ling leaned against a Land Rover with a cigarette in his mouth, watching Mo Xing walk out. He approached and offered Mo Xing a smoke.
"It's okay, stop thinking about it. Everything is in the past. From now on, we should smile at life," Ye Ling said with a slight smile.
Taking a deep breath, Mo Xing also smiled faintly, "Come on, drink with me!"
"Sure! Imperial Dynasty Disco, find Xiao Hong?" Ye Ling asked with a mischievous smile.
"Let's go, find Xiao Hong! Damn, I haven't felt good in days; tonight, that wild mare better make me comfortable, alleviate the pain in my heart."
Finishing their conversation, they got into the car. However, Mo Xing's gaze remained fixed on the distant graveyard until it disappeared from his sight.
Inside the Imperial Dynasty Disco, Ye Ling and Mo Xing sat in the VIP area, with Mu Ninghan by their side, her eyes slightly red. She had just learned that Ye Ling had avenged her, the devil in her heart was dead.
"Ye Ling, thank you," Mu Ninghan said with a faint smile.
Ye Ling shook his head, "You're my woman. It's my duty to avenge you, so there's no need for thanks. It sounds too distant and frankly kind of sour."
"If you really want to thank me, then take good care of me tonight, haha!"
Ye Ling laughed heartily, while Mo Xing rolled his eyes at him. Mu Ninghan, sitting next to Ye Ling, playfully slapped his arm.
"You're so improper. Sit here and wait, I'll go call Xiao Hong for our dear Mo," she said, before walking away with allure.
Watching Mu Ninghan leave, Mo Xing chuckled, "Tell me, how do you get such good luck with women? Come clean, how many do you have?"
"Heh, I'm not bragging to you, but I've got lots of women, more than I can count on both hands, and I even have a Mexican Dollar. Do you believe that? Haha, she's absolutely stunning!" Ye Ling heh-hehed, rubbing his palms with a knowing look on his face.
"Pah! Keep bragging. You vanished for just two or three days; where could you have found a Mexican Dollar unless you've been to a brothel?"
"You beast! With so many beautiful women at home, you still have the energy to visit a brothel? That's inhuman."
"If I were you, I wouldn't even step outside the door, I'd die right on their bellies."
Ye Ling laughed arrogantly, "Let me tell you, this is the difference. Understand? This is the difference between yours truly and you. You're just an ordinary person, way behind the times. Even if you were given this many women, could you handle it?"
"With your physique, I'm afraid it wouldn't take a month before your vital energy is sucked dry and you're completely spent. By then, where would your old man find a place to cry?"
"What would he say? That his son was played to death by women? Wouldn't that be slapping the old man's face? How embarrassing."
Ye Ling rambled on, while Mo Xing gritted his teeth, "Ye Ling, let me tell you, you bastard. You've got quite the mouth on you. It's a crying shame you're not a lawyer or in direct sales."
"Psh, if I ever got into direct sales, they'd be crying to send me back. They'd be worried I'd lead a women's brigade in rebellion—what a joke."
Ye Ling was full of pride. He didn't even glance at them. To someone like him, direct sales were nothing—he could walk through hell with ease.
At that moment, Mu Ninghan returned, accompanied by Xiao Hong, who seemed even more beautiful that day. Her face was lightly made up, and she wore a short red dress.
Her fair skin showed past the clothes, and under the flash of the cameras, Xiao Hong looked alluring and charming, so delightful that one couldn't help but want to kiss her, to cherish her.
"Wow, my little treasure, how I've missed you!" Mo Xing immediately stood up, putting on a different face, and walked over to Xiao Hong, wrapping his arms around her soft body.
"Oh my, Mo, why so lecherous? I never noticed that before!" Xiao Hong collapsed into Mo Xing's arms, cooing flirtatiously.
Mo Xing glanced at Mu Ninghan and Ye Ling, then grinned, "Well, you know what they say, 'Women don't love a man unless he's bad.' Right?"
As he spoke, Mo Xing gave Xiao Hong a touch, making Ye Ling so angry that his eyes seemed to shoot fire.
"You two, can you have a little shame? Do you even know how to spell the word 'decency'? Should I teach you how?"
Mo Xing was taken aback. "Alright, teach me then." Explore more adventures at empire
Ye Ling scoffed with disdain, then teased with a flirtatious smile, "What a joke, how would I know how to spell 'decency'? Let alone that, I don't even know how to spell 'shame'."
"Ha ha! You illiterate! I'll teach you in a bit!" Mo Xing laughed heartily from the side.
The four of them sat down and started to drink. Mo Xing, troubled, drank quickly and urgently, with Ye Ling readily keeping him company.
As a woman of the world, Xiao Hong was savvy and quick-witted. Seeing that Mo Xing was preoccupied, she kept trying to amuse him.
Ye Ling moved next to Mu Ninghan. "Where did you find this top-grade beauty? She's got Mo completely dizzy with infatuation."
"Indeed, the girl is smart and has the goods, just a pity about her background. I wonder if she could latch onto Mo Xing, this big tree," Mu Ninghan remarked thoughtfully.
Yet Ye Ling sighed and shook his head, "Don't even think about it. If Mo's old man finds out that Mo Xing is planning to marry a woman from the demi-monde, he'd dismantle him limb by limb."
It's alright to have a fling, but real emotions are absolutely off-limits, let alone bringing her home. Otherwise, Mo Zidao might get so angry that he would chop off Mo Xing's limbs with a kitchen knife.
The secretary of Donghai City and the next head of the Mo Family couldn't afford to lose that much face.
Mu Ninghan shook her head in disappointment, but she knew her thoughts were somewhat far-fetched. Xiao Hong, on the other hand, was quite open-minded; as long as Mo Xing frequented her place, that was enough.
Even so, that would be sufficient for her to rise to the top.
