Chapter 448 - 446: Gained a Little Sister
This was the first time he felt that his opponent was so formidable. Chen Tianlong was stronger than many experts in the training camp, and apart from their instructor, probably no one could take on this kid.
At this moment, Lei Yifeng knew he was not as skilled, but he still had to avenge his brother and comrades. After thinking it over, he produced a black object in his hand.
Bang!
A loud explosion, dust rolling.
This was clearly a specially made smoke bomb designed to appear as a real grenade, causing people to dodge immediately upon seeing it.
Sure enough, Chen Tianlong saw the smoking black object and genuinely thought it was a bomb, so he ran over to Lin Wushuang and directly tackled her to the ground.
However, when he took a closer look, he realized it was a modified smoke bomb.
"Damn it, he actually got away." Once the smoke dissipated, Chen Tianlong found that Er Gouzi was gone, while those two bodyguards still lay on the ground.
Chen Tianlong knew these two bodyguards posed no threat to Second Young Master Lei; they were merely hired to solve problems for others, and their deaths were inconsequential.
Having no choice, Chen Tianlong released the two men’s acupoints, kicked each of them, and instructed them to compensate for all the losses here tonight before leaving.
"Chen Tianlong, who are these people? Why do they seem to be targeting you?" After the dust settled, Lin Wushuang sat back down, and Mrs. Mo continued to run her barbecue stall for free.
"Well, it’s like this. Last time, I went to Zhongsha Island to rescue Xiaoxiao, and then I incidentally attended an auction held by an organization on the island. Elder Qu also knew about it, as he participated with me. We had a conflict with that person’s brother midway...."
"Did you injure them?"
Lin Wushuang directly interrupted Chen Tianlong.
"Not exactly; he provoked me, and I just...."
"Chen Tianlong, how many times have I told you not to be so violent. It’s dangerous. If something happens to you, what will I do then?"
Lin Wushuang was very emotional, and in a moment of weakness, she let something slip.
Chen Tianlong was stunned. He had never heard Lin Wushuang speak with such concern before. Though it sounded rather forceful with a hint of reprimand, anyone with a bit of sense would realize it was this girl’s concern.
"Wait, what did you just say? If something happens to me, what will you do? So does this mean you agreed to be my girlfriend?" Chen Tianlong skipped over the earlier part and went straight to the point.
"No, I didn’t say that, I... I didn’t say anything. Humph, it’s none of my business whether you live or die!" Lin Wushuang’s cheeks blushed slightly, and she quickly lowered her head to eat barbecue, her expression was truly lovely.
Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly, thinking that if this girl were ever awake when she confessed to him, perhaps the sky would fall.
"Alright, but I’ll handle Zhang Jingyun, then you have to be my girlfriend too, hehe." Chen Tianlong laughed.
"Pfft, let’s wait until you fix everything up first." Lin Wushuang pouted, feeling a ripple of emotion in her heart. Strangely, she felt a bit of anticipation.
At this moment, Mo Jing came over, placed a plate of prepared barbecue on the table, and was about to leave.
"Little sister, sit with us, let’s eat together." Chen Tianlong saw Mo Jing was so cute, and couldn’t help wanting to chat a bit more with her.
"Yeah, little sister, sit down, there’s no rush with anything now." Lin Wushuang also liked Mo Jing and said hurriedly.
Mo Jing glanced in her mother’s direction and saw Mrs. Mo nodding; she smiled shyly and sat on a stool, although she didn’t take anything to eat.
"Here."
Chen Tianlong noticed Mo Jing’s shyness and handed her a skewer of lamb.
Mo Jing hesitated for a moment but eventually took it.
To be honest, her mother’s barbecue was delicious. However, to make money, she rarely ate anything from home. Now someone was offering her delicious roasted lamb, which made her smile joyfully.
"Cough cough...."
Just then, Mrs. Mo started coughing. She had chronic asthma, which was nearing its terminal stage, but to ensure her daughter lived happily, she didn’t let her know the truth.
Chen Tianlong followed the sound of coughing and, through the faint barbecue smoke, glimpsed Mrs. Mo’s pale face.
"Big brother, Xiaojing has a request, can you promise me?" Little Mo Jing suddenly raised her head, her cheeks flushed as she asked.
Chen Tianlong was taken aback, unsure what the little girl wanted, so he nodded.
"Can... you be my brother? Just like in other families, a brother who dearly cares for his sister." Mo Jing finished, dropping her head in embarrassment.
"Huh?"
Chen Tianlong hadn’t expected Mo Jing’s request to be like this, momentarily unsure how to respond.
But Lin Wushuang was there, fiercely winking at Chen Tianlong, indicating he should agree. After all, what harm was there in being a brother to such a cute girl, who wouldn’t cause him any trouble?
"Of course." Seeing Lin Wushuang agree, Chen Tianlong couldn’t be inconsiderate.
"Really? You can really be my brother?" Mo Jing went from nervous to delighted, her face filled with smiles.
In fact, she knew about her mother’s illness from the medical records she saw in her mother’s room. At the time, she didn’t understand, so she asked some senior schoolmates. Only then did she realize her mother had asthma, and it was in the mid-stages.
But her mother kept working every night to provide for life and her tuition fees. The oil smoke was especially harmful to asthma.
To set her mother’s heart at ease, Mo Jing wanted to find someone who could take care of her, and Chen Tianlong was the first superhero to appear in her life, making her subconsciously like him and want him as her brother.
"Of course." Chen Tianlong laughed.
"Then... let’s do a high-five. That way, it won’t change for a hundred years." Mo Jing, a little girl, naturally had such innocent thoughts.
"... "
Chen Tianlong was speechless, but seeing such an innocent little girl, he couldn’t bear to upset her, so he extended his hand to high-five with Mo Jing.
Right at that moment, Mo Jing’s mother was in distress; she coughed violently and suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"Mom, Mom...."
Mo Jing saw her mother fall down, her face turned pale, and she ran over directly.
Chen Tianlong and Lin Wushuang followed, and seeing Mrs. Mo’s complexion, Chen Tianlong knew something was wrong. He quickly flipped her eyelids, pressed her pulse, and furrowed his brows.
