Chapter Forty-Four: Cultivating Love

  He furiously found his adoptive father to reason with him, if it wasn't for the fact that he had forced him at first, he wouldn't have agreed. But Feltan, on the other hand, was calm and collected: "Vito, why are you so agitated? You need to remember, a real man can't be bothered with trivial matters. She's Sanders' woman, isn't that even better? Your Empire Group is looking for Sanders, aren't they? Now that you've got control of his woman, do you still think he won't show up?"

  "So you've known who she was all along?"

  "This is the order from above, but Vito, shouldn't you trust your godfather? Has your godfather ever harmed you? All these years, hasn't your godfather always thought of you?"

  "If you really cared about me, you wouldn't have used Cui Niang to coerce me in the first place!"

  "Silly child, isn't Aunt Cui doing this for your own good? Do you think Aunt Cui would really listen to me? Do I really have the ability to deceive you and take Aunt Cui away?" Feltin always had an expressionless face, even when he was angry. Cangmu felt that it was pointless to continue talking to him, as no matter how much they talked, it would only end in this same situation. He turned around silently and walked away.

  Yes, his godfather always knew where his weakness lay.

  He closed his eyes wearily, clenching the brooch tightly in his palm. The phone on the table suddenly rang loudly, breaking the silence of the space. He glanced at the phone before picking it up, and on the other end was Meiying's cold and calm voice: "Mr. Charlie's call..."

  "Come on in..." The phone cut off quickly, and Charlie's voice came from the other end: "Recently received a message that someone named Fred Kanton is suspected of drug trafficking..."

  Charlie hadn't finished speaking when Cang Mou interrupted him: "Officer Charlie, sorry, I don't want to take on any cases recently..."

  "Mr. Filton, think about it again..." Charlie's tone became even more determined, not being annoyed by the direct refusal at all, "If I say this has something to do with the Tiandao Gang, will you still refuse?"

  Cang Mu paused for three seconds, although he was very dissatisfied with Charlie's attitude, but the Tiandao Gang... "Send over the materials..." He said, without waiting for Charlie to respond on the other end of the line, he hung up the phone and immediately pressed the internal line: "Mei Ying, ask Feng Ying to come in... And you too, come in for a moment..."

  "Hmm..." She responded softly and hung up the phone, getting up to head towards the CEO's office. He looked a bit tired, as if he hadn't slept all night. From Shen Long's tone, it seemed like he had seen him at the hospital, along with his new wife. Of course, she didn't have the authority to ask him anything, she was just his subordinate after all.

  She stood by, waiting for his instructions, but saw that he was holding the brooch he had drawn before. She somewhat understood and guessed something, but when she really saw the brooch, she was still startled. The brooch... was it on that woman's body?

  "Find the Guardian Angel company for me and get this fixed..." Cang Mu pushed the brooch over, his eyes looking towards Mei Ying, who seemed to have paused for a moment before taking it: "Got it..."

  "Anything else?" He looked at her and asked as she hadn't left yet.

  "Calling Wind Shadow... is there another new mission? Or should I go instead..." she said.

  He furrowed his brow and stared at her for a while before saying in a cold tone: "Get out!"

  Among all the people, Night Wolf, Blue Lion, Silver Fox, Red Eagle, Purple Phoenix, and even Divine Dragon Green Crane, including those under her command like Wind Shadow and Ghost Shadow, he had assigned tasks to them, but not to her. She should cherish such special treatment, but now she didn't want it.

  She turned and left without any rebuttal.
