Chapter 243: A New Path

I was led deeper into the underground ring by the man in sunglasses, and after we passed through a narrow, cramped hallway, there was a larger space inside.

Then I was taken to a door, and after the man in sunglasses knocked on the door, a low voice came from inside.

"Come in."

That's the voice of the boss.

I opened the door and walked in, but the man in sunglasses remained in the doorway, standing like a stone statue in the doorway, not moving.

When I entered the door, I found three people sitting in the room. Sitting in the center of a desk is the boss, smoking a giant cigar and his sunglasses covering most of his face, so he only looks like he has an exaggerated smile on his face. The smile that came out of the dark lips made people feel a little gloomy.

On the two sofas not far from the desk, Li Mu and Wan Ling sat respectively. Li Mu's injuries have healed, and they don't look as bad as they were then, but there are still some wounds on his face that haven't healed. He was also smoking a cigarette, looking rather annoyed. On the sofa next to him sat Wan Ling, Wan Ling lowered his head, but would glance at Li Mu from time to time. Every time at this time, Li Mu would be even more upset, and his brows would furrow into the appearance of an old man.

When they saw me come in, all three turned their eyes to me. Li Mu also smiled at me and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

I smiled slightly, shook my head and didn't speak, then walked up to the boss and said, "I succeeded." ”

The boss grinned, and then applauded twice perfunctorily, he pointed to the sofa next to Li Mu, and I sat down after I thought.

Next, the boss coughed and said: "It was also beyond my expectation that you could defeat Songzi this time, but I did what I said, I let Li Mu's life go, and this cheap woman also gave it to Li Mu." These are the little things, and you don't have to worry. ”

I glanced at Li Mu, thinking that he was just worried that the boss gave him this woman. But this is a trivial matter compared to life, and I think Li Mu is making a bit of a fuss.

At this time, the boss said again: "Wang Quan, you have been mixed with us for several years, from a small minion to a well-known boxer." And you're almost free, but have you ever wanted to go further? ”

The boss stared at me, and Li Mu also stared at me at this time.

What the boss said was actually expected by me, of course I didn't plan to walk on this road for too long, and I longed for the life of ordinary people. But I have a bigger purpose, and I defeated Matsuko to make the boss say this to me.

I said calmly: "From the moment I stepped into the ring, I was destined to be no longer an ordinary person, and it doesn't make much difference whether I am free or not free. The boss meant that I should continue to box, continue to do things for the organization, and if the boss is willing to appreciate his face, I naturally have no second words. ”

The boss looked at me for a long time and seemed to want to see if I was sincere. But I was very calm and honest, so I didn't feel too pressured.

The boss was silent for a long time and then said hello, and then said: "The current situation is not as good as before, it is the time when there is a shortage of manpower, I have already reported your situation to the above, and they also have high hopes for you." If nothing else, we'll be out of here in a few days, so come with me then. ”

I'm actually very excited, because that's what I'm for. But I was still very calm, and I said, "Everything is arranged by the boss, and I don't have anything to worry about here anyway, no matter where I go." ”

The boss smiled and nodded, and then looked at Li Mu, and wanted to say something but didn't say anything. In the end, the boss let the three of us leave.

On the way out, Li Mu seemed to have a lot to say to me, but every time the words came to his lips and he took them back, the appearance of wanting to stop talking looked very uncomfortable. And during this period, Wan Ling also kept pestering him, and even held his arm, which made Li Mu have a headache. And I secretly felt a little funny, Li Mu would also be annoyed by women like this.

After going out, Yemei and Bai Qing were already waiting impatiently, and they were relieved to see that we all came out safely.

Ye Mei first glared at Li Mu and said, "Look at what you have made of our family's royal power as a woman, fortunately, you won, if something happens, even if you become a ghost, I won't be able to spare you." ”

Li Mu frowned, looked at Wan Ling, who was sticking to himself like a dog skin plaster, sighed helplessly, and then looked at me with a blue nose and swollen face, patted my shoulder, and didn't say anything.

Yemei also rarely saw Li Mu so embarrassed again, but her anger disappeared, and she sighed: "It's okay, it's best that nothing happens to everyone now, let's have a meal together tonight to celebrate." ”

Although everyone was tired, it was indeed something to celebrate, so they all went out with the night. It's still Yuanfan Restaurant.

In fact, I was also worried along the way, because I didn't know how to tell Yemei what the boss had explained, and what would she do if I left here? The more I thought about it, the more I had a headache, so I had to think about it for the time being, anyway, I still had a few days to deal with these trivial things.

So Li Mu and I tacitly agreed not to mention this matter. When he walked to the Yuanfan Restaurant, Li Mu suddenly stopped and said to Wan Ling beside him: "You have regained your freedom now, and I also clearly told you that I don't mean anything about you." After everyone eats this meal together, you can leave, don't feel guilty about what happened before, and don't feel that I owe you anything. ”

Wan Ling thought that Li Mu had agreed to stay by his side without speaking, and Li Mu's sudden words made her feel a little caught off guard, and tears instantly fell from her eyes.

We didn't quite understand what was going on between Wan Ling and Li Mu, so we didn't speak, just looked at the two from a distance.

In the end, Li Mu said something to Wan Ling, his expression was very serious and indifferent, while Wan Ling didn't say a word, just cried vigorously. After crying for about a few minutes, Wan Ling turned around and ran away.

Then Li Mu walked over, shook his head with a wry smile at us, and said, "Women are really troublesome." ”

Yemei said dissatisfiedly: "What is called a woman is trouble, it should be said that men are ruthless." ”

Except for Yemei, all the men present here were men, but no one went to pick her up, just shrunk their necks.

I asked, "Brother Mu, what's the matter with that woman?" ”

Li Mu said depressedly: "If only I knew what was going on, I only talked to her two or three times, I don't know why she kept pestering me later, and threatened me that if I wasn't with her, I would report to the boss that I had a leg with her." I was really shot while lying down, there was nothing between me and her, and she really had the courage to tell her boss about it. ”

Li Mu took a sip, lit a cigarette and smoked violently, and then said with a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I finally got rid of it now, and you will pretend not to know her when you see her in the future." ”

Bai Qing and Ye Mei and I looked at each other, and they all thought this thing was funny. It's just inexplicable.

I said to Li Mu: "It seems that Brother Mu's charm has reached such a degree, it is simply terrifying. ”

Li Mu smiled bitterly, probably because he saw the panda eyes I was hit by pine nuts, and couldn't help laughing, and then said: "You have to have a good drink tonight, and you have to tell me how you defeated the monster of pine nuts in an instant." To be honest, I thought you and I were dead, but I didn't expect you kid to surprise me again. ”

Seeing that we were chatting happily, Yemei said impatiently: "What do you have to say at the wine table, what does it look like to stand at the door." ”

So the four of us went to the restaurant.

The four of us drank a lot all night, and I was drinking with the mentality of using alcohol to kill my sorrows. During this period, I also told Li Mu about Zhou Chu's training for me to defeat Songzi, and he was as surprised as Yemei's reaction when he heard it.

I said, "But there is still a lot of trouble to solve the pine nuts, and it is really a headache." ”

Li Mu frowned and said, "This person is too strange, do you really want to fight him?" ”

I smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to face Zhou Chu, but I'm very interested in him and want to get to know him." This mentality is really contradictory. ”

Li Mu didn't speak, and finally just said, "Anyway, just be careful." ”

Then we continued to drink, and the four of us drank seven bottles of liquor, during which we were so drunk that we said some nonsense, but Li Mu and I tacitly did not mention what the boss said.

After the wine game ended, Yemei and Bai Qing, who had drunk less, left. And I insisted on staying and wanted to discuss some things with Li Mu.

The two of us slowly swayed along the night street, and Li Mu asked, "Are you sure you want to leave with the boss?" ”

I nodded, but didn't say why. And Li Mu was also uncharacteristically unusual, and did not ask.

I smiled and said, "How is it, is Brother Mu interested in going with me?" ”

I was just joking, but Li Mu actually thought about it seriously, and he actually said to me, "I still need to think about it." ”

But I thought it would be nice to have someone you could trust and rely on if you really wanted to go with the boss, so I didn't say much.

Li Mu thought for a long time and then said to me: "If you go with the BOSS, you will know how huge the organization we are in in the future, and the so-called BOSS we are in contact with now is only the tip of the iceberg." And there will be more powerful fighters that you will meet. ”

I smiled and said, "That's not a bad thing, anyway, my life is destined to be a constant challenge since you taught me boxing." ”

Li Mu shook his head, and then said to me: "It's naturally good that you have this awareness, but you have to protect yourself no matter what. That's all that matters. ”
