Mu Huainan was holding me in his arms. His body was still emitting a fragrant water vapor, making me feel extremely comfortable.

Mu Huainan's first sentence was spoken so suddenly, and it made me feel a little uncomfortable.

I suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but ask.

"This is the mission given to us by the Old Owner. In a place as big as An Fang, there were so many people who needed to be raised. Therefore, one of the most important things that could enter the Old Owner's side was to help him earn money. At that time, he gave us nine artists a starting fund. It was very little, not even enough to rent an office building.

"Only ten years old? You only want to earn money? "

Mu Huainan rested his chin on my head and nodded lightly.

"Yes, I'm ten years younger, and the oldest is already an adult."

"In the end, you still lost out quite a bit."

He smiled.

"This is a rule set by An Fang. Everyone has to abide by a rule when participating in this competition. After a year, everyone has to either pay twenty times the amount or submit their orders."

I couldn't help but shiver and went back into Mu Huainan's embrace.

"Before this mission begins, everyone has to sign the Life and Death Contract. This is actually the first test given to us by the Old Owner, to see who is afraid of death and who is afraid of death."

"Does anyone flinch?"

Mu Huainan shook his head.

"Anyone who dares to mix in with those of Anfang Clan will not be afraid of death."

Therefore, the reason why Mu Huainan can hug me like this today, is because he went through countless life and death experiences in exchange. At this thought, I couldn't help but hug him tightly.

"Thank goodness you won in the end. If I didn't win, I would be alone now."

"Silly girl." He rubbed my head, kissed me lightly, and continued, "That test, I was in second place, and the first place was a bookish boy, always dressed very heavily and wearing a hat, very thin and small and small, everyone called him his little sister, because of the nine of them he was only three years older than me, so everyone except me called him little brother. It's exactly what little brother sissy wants. "

I couldn't help but laugh out loud. "You are Mr. Mou, you actually lost to others when you were second place in your entire life?"

"I deliberately lost."

"Why?"

"It's not a good thing to get so much attention the first time you take the lead."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh. At that time Mu Huainan was only ten years old, but he actually had such close thinking. No wonder he was a Mr. Mou and others couldn't become one.

"Then …" I asked carefully, "Is there anything that couldn't complete that quest?"

Mu Huainan nodded.

"Of the three, three are incomplete."

"Then... They. Really … Is he really dead? "

"Yes."

"The Owner killed them?"

I thought this was just a bluff before the match, I didn't expect it to be true.

"Two of them honestly went to find the Owner to take responsibility. The Owner left them with their corpses and brought them back home. The other one went to steal the money cart to save his life. He was beaten to death by the police on the spot."

My back was cold.

"You're only ten years old, yet you've already experienced this …"

The flower was the same age, but it began to encounter the darkest and darkest life in this world.

"This is just the beginning. One year later, the Old Owner has issued a second mission, telling us to use our own abilities to get close to the government officials, whoever gets closer, the higher their rank will be, the remaining six people will only stay in the top three, the rest, if they find a government official with the ability to protect them, they will stay alive, and if not, they will die."

I couldn't help but ask, "This is simply a battle coliseum. Is that old man from Owner really a monster to let so many of you fight each other like this?

The strong preys on the weak, it's just that the ordinary people will leave once they fail, and the people at the side of Old Owner will lose a lot of money because we want more. We don't have the capital to compensate them, so we only have our lives.

The night and his voice mixed together, like an invisible hand, grabbing my heart, oppressing me so that I couldn't breathe.

I finally understood what Ai Meng was saying to me.

It's not that I'm not afraid at all, but that I've never seen how terrifying it really is.

This was probably what it meant to be fearless.

"As for the benefits you mentioned." Mu Huainan thought for a while and said: "Old Owner is a smart person, he saw that his two sons are useless long ago, so from then on, he purposely raised them to be his successors."

Mu Huainan continued, "Give us five years of time for this mission. During these five years, he has granted us complete freedom.

"Five years is enough for you to come into contact with society." I thought for a moment and said, "To be able to grow up in such a chaotic and frightening environment, and even make it sound so nice and free, I think it's clearly to let you guys fend for yourselves."

The heavy atmosphere was broken by Mu Huainan's light laughter. He reached his hand out from under the blanket and grabbed my cold foot as he rubbed it.

"He shall perish on his own." Mu Huainan repeated: "It has always been the way the Old Owner nurtured children."

"Then why did you go? You said that your grandfather doted on the child the most, how could he have the heart to push you to that place?"

"I went by myself."

I was surprised. "You went there yourself?"

"My grandfather owed me a debt and sold me in order to repay the money. I was sold to a bar to work as a child labourer, and I didn't want to be ordered around every day. Once, I accidentally discovered that I was causing trouble with the people at Anfang, so I went."

As I listened, I couldn't help but scold him like an adult scolding a child, "You, if you were a little more rational back then, would you have had to suffer so much afterwards!"

He hugged me hard.

"But I have no regrets." "Because if I hadn't entered He An, I wouldn't have known you," he said.

I looked up at him. "Why?"

"When I was sixteen, I met you. At that time, I lived in the same yard as your family. That was where the government officials I worked for lived. That's why I met you when I lived with them."

"Who did you find someone you were attached to?" "You're so young."

"Greedy people, the things you want are all the same." Mu Huainan said.

"What do you mean?"

"The man I am attached to has a very high position and power. He has a good reputation in the government and this has led to a lot of trouble. He has a lot of connections with the underworld and it is inconvenient for him to appear personally, and there aren't any trustworthy people around. I was chosen by him and raised as his foster son, in fact, it was to nurture me to become his trusted aide. so that I can help him in the future. "

I suddenly understood what the final goal of the two big Bosses was.

"Old Owner needs someone to support you on the white path, so I nurtured you to be close to government officials. Your adoptive father needs to have a say in the black path, so I nurtured you to stand firmly?"

"Smart."

The back of my spine chills. Now that I think about it, these people are really scheming too much and their shrewdness is frightening.

But at that time, the person facing all of this was a teenage Mu Huainan.

"So it turns out that you were so frightened back then." I lay in his arms and sighed. "I can't help you with anything."

"Silly girl, you're the one who accompanied me through all this. If you didn't accompany me often and give me happiness, I might not be able to persevere. "

After saying this, he quickly followed up with another sentence, "Do you know what I wanted the most at that time?"

"What?"

"Money."

I said disdainfully, "Tsk, I also like money."

"I want to make money and marry you home."

As I listened, my heart warmed.

"Mr. Mou has learnt how to tease girls."

"This is from the bottom of my heart."

"Alright, stop talking. Continue to tell me. In the end, who is in the top three for this mission?"

The moonlight was like water, it shone through the window. Mu Huainan yawned, buried his head in my shoulder, and said lazily.

"Wife, I'm a bit tired."

It was the first time he had ever called me that.

After all, he and I haven't even got a marriage certificate.

But no one seemed to care about this. I also said that I didn't want to get married, so I moved in together. Whether there was that marriage certificate or not, no one could break it up for us.

His love and I had already been proven by the hardships we had gone through. It was too much trouble to get married, and if we had the time, we might as well have a good dinner with him.

Or tell the story.

I put my arm around his waist and put a kiss on his lips.

Replace everything.

I said after a while.

"No matter what happens, I won't leave you."

He didn't answer. He was probably asleep.

That night, I stayed awake with my eyes closed.

His mind went over and over what had happened to Mu Huainan all these years.

In a place like An Fang, there were many man-eating tigers. He had been there since he was ten years old, bleeding profusely, stepping on corpses and causing others to collapse long ago, but Mu Huainan had really survived through it. Not only that, he had become everyone's master, the Mr. Mou that everyone was afraid of.

To this, all I could do was to feel pain in my heart.

The evening breeze was cool. I reached out to help him cover himself with the blanket and heard his soft and delicate voice mumbling as if he were talking in his sleep.

"An'an."

For the first time I found him in the habit of talking in his sleep, and I couldn't help but find him lovely.

"Yes." "I'm here," I said.

"You are not allowed to leave."

"Yes." I won't go. "

When I woke up the next day, Mu Huainan was no longer by my side. The pillow beside my bed had already turned cold. Looking at his watch, it was already noon.

I washed up and went downstairs. Mu Huainan was on the sofa watching television.

"Huai Nan." As I walked down the stairs, I asked him, "Is there any news of Jing Yu at the sanatorium?"

He replied without turning his head, "Didn't I already say, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will go and bring Jing Yu back in two days, don't worry."

"In two days?" I repeated his words as I walked down the building towards him: "Does that mean you already know where Jing Yu is?"

He did not nod his head nor did he shake it. Mu Huainan's silence would never represent tacit approval.

"Mu Huainan!" I flew into a rage, "Jing Yu is my sister! It is your duty to tell me where she is! "

"Jing Yu was taken away by an old friend of mine.
