With the virus neutralized, it was time to discuss when to leave Riyadh. As Ye Wei, Eleven, and Bai Ye had previously discussed, they had to return to Rome and expedite the feud between Prince William and Chu Li.
Given that their main opponent is the Mafia, chances were that Louis was leveraging on Prince William to weaken the First Terrorist Organization and shift attention. If they were tangled in attrition with Prince William for too long, any losses would outstrip the gains made.
Bai Ye had contacted Chu Li, informing him that he would start to mobilize the international strength of the organization once he had made arrangements in Rome. The intention was to utilize the international situation to force Prince William to hunker down. With the situation having developed this far, he did not believe that William would perish with Chu Li for want of Rong Yan. Hence, this was the fastest way to resolve the problem.
Eleven and Ye Wei naturally had things to do too. They wanted to locate the Mo brothers and Louis.
The young kid said, “Daddy, Mommy, can I go with Bai Ye this time? Please?”
This was the reason he and Ye Wei went upstairs to look for the young kid’s parents. If it weren’t for unexpected developments this time, the young kid would have long sought ways to join the organization. This was the perfect opportunity to strengthen himself and he did not want to miss it.
Since he would learn more by hanging around with them, he was certainly going the whole nine yards as he had to develop his own capabilities and not always hang around his parents. Most importantly, he wanted to seek revenge for Nuo Nuo.
He was not going to spare Louis or Blue Wolf.
While Third Young Master Ye had no opinion, he merely tilted his head to hint to his son that he ought to convince his mommy.
“Mommy, what do you say?” the young kid asked Cheng Anya. “I know that the two of you have just recovered and it is not the most appropriate thing to talk about. Still, could Mommy just allow me to have my way for once? Please?”
Cheng Anya leaned back and looked at the young kid deeply. She was speechless, and the young kid quietly watched her with a steely determination. Cheng Anya emotionally sighed. That said, what use would it be of her to prevent him from going? She had decided, when she was escaping, that she would allow her child to soar.
She was indeed unable to provide the specific skills he needed that only others could.
“If you have made up your mind, I have no opinion.” Cheng Anya eventually agreed.
Ye Wei’s heart was at ease. Had this been long ago, convincing Cheng Anya would have been difficult. After this experience, even she knew that it was child’s play. She really could not decide whether she ought to thank Louis for giving Cheng Anya such an impactful lesson.
“Mommy, you are the best!” The young kid leaped over and clung to Cheng Anya’s neck. “Thank you, Mommy.”
Cheng Anya kissed her darling child and said, “Do what you want to do. You’ve grown up, and Mommy trusts your judgment.”
Following this incident, she had indeed grown up.
Her son had also grown up.
She ought to let go of him.
Her son was like the kite in the sky whilst she was the thread that was forever tied to him and would prevent him from flying away. It was only when the line was slackened that he could fly higher and further.
The slacker the string was, the further it would fly. As long as her son did not crash and burn, all these were not a problem. When she gently tugged, he would eventually come back.
Third Young Master Ye looked at both mother and son and gave a consoling smile.
The luckiest thing he could have in his life was to meet Cheng Anya, fall in love with her, and have such an excellent child with her. He ought to treasure the goodwill that he had accumulated in his past generations.
“Daddy, Mommy, what about you?” The young kid asked worryingly as he was somewhat concerned. “Are you going back to City A?”
Third Young Master Ye nodded and said, “I am going back. I’ve been away from City A for a month, and Lin and Fourth Young Master Tang are very worried. We have to discuss how to fight against the Mafia as Louis’ next move would be to usurp North America, and the Dragon Gate will be the first to take the brunt.”
The young kid nodded and held Cheng Anya’s hands tightly. He suddenly said, “Mommy, stay in Riyadh. This is Su Man’s house, which is forbidden territory. With Su Man around, nobody can lay their hands on you. Could you only return to City A once things have stabilized?”
Cheng Anya shook her head and said, “No. I am going back with you, and there’s no room for discussion on this.”
The young kid understood his mommy’s character extremely well. Since she had said so, there was definitely no room for discussion then. He could not help but turn to look at Third Young Master Ye. Ye Chen gently smiled and said, “She will be by my side 24/7. I will absolutely not allow history to repeat itself.”
On top of that, a legion of killers from the Dragon Gate will protect them 24/7 to prevent the carelessness and loss of initiative on their part. Louis would have trouble getting close to City A this time around.
“This should not be an issue since following Third Brother is not too different from staying with Su Man. City A is now peaceful whereas Riyadh is becoming slightly unsafe. While they have some reservations about Su Man, Louis would have no qualms perishing with his enemy if he knows that third sister-in-law is alone.” Ye Wei coldly analyzed. “As we still have no information on Louis and Big Boss Mo, Ning Ning shall check and locate their presence. Once they are in City A, please inform us as soon as possible.”
“That is a given,” the young kid held Cheng Anya’s hands and flatly replied. “Mommy, your darling child will not allow you to undergo such things again.”
Before Cheng Anya could praise the young kid for his obedience, Third Young Master Ye landed a fist on the young kid and flattened him. The young kid clutched his aching head and stared at Third Young Master Ye in sadness.
“Daddy, are you going to beat me until I become an idiot?”
“Why did you steal that line from me? I was supposed to say that.” Third Young Master Ye squinted and looked at the young kid. “Damn rascal, my wife does not need your protection.”
The young kid pouted in indignation. He should have just told him straight.
Protecting his mommy and being her guardian was a given for the young kid. To think that his daddy was absent from his mommy’s side for years, only to interrupt and claim that he was not the kindest!
The young kid was smart enough not to say that out loud.
Cheng Anya rolled her eyes and learned what he had done earlier by returning him a punch. “You, shut up.”
Ye Wei broke into loud laughter.
“I’m going against you!” Third Young Master Ye raised a fist and Cheng Anya was not fearful of him at all. She ignored him and said to Ye Wei, “Wei Wei, I will have to trouble you with Ning Ning then. Help me take care of him.”
“Third sister-in-law, don’t worry. He is smart and scheming enough. Nothing will happen to him.”
The young kid humbly smiled.
“Since the decision is made, I will have somebody prepare the plane,” Ye Wei said. “Third sister-in-law, if you are unwell, please immediately inform Su Man. Su Man did mention that there will be no danger for now.”
“Relax. I know.”
“Hasn’t the virus in Anya been neutralized?” Third Young Master Ye flatly asked. He looked at Cheng Anya with fiery eyes that had a slight panic in them.
“Didn’t third sister-in-law tell you? The virus in her has been neutralized, but the one in her womb hasn’t.” Ye Wei blurted out and Cheng Anya could not stop her in time.
Third Young Master Ye was petrified from the shock.
