Reborn Villain's Creed
Chapter 71: Love is still a matter of youth
Mo Wan looked at Zhan Chengfeng standing in front of him, thought for a moment and said, "Even if you are really my guardian, I have no obligation to report everything to you."
Indeed, unless they are prisoners, everyone has the right to privacy.
Zhan Chengfeng looked at the girl who seemed both self-righteous and prickly. He knew that this was her personality, but he always felt that something was wrong.
A child who was spoiled since childhood, she didn't need to explain her actions to anyone except her father.
But—she hesitated just now.
This shows that she made the decision after careful consideration and weighing of the pros and cons.
Under Zhan Chengfeng's gaze, Mo Wan fearlessly drank the remaining half glass of water, put the glass down, and stood up. "I have an appointment tomorrow, so I'm going to rest first."
Zhan Chengfeng said: "I'll ask someone to accompany you."
Mo Wan looked at him and raised the corner of her lip. "I'm going on a date with my boyfriend. Is it okay for them to come along?"
Her subtle smile carried a hint of provocation.
It was like there was finally something beyond his expectations and control, a victory of freedom.
Zhan Chengfeng remained calm despite her pride, saying, "There was a shooting on the highway tonight, resulting in three deaths and two injuries. Master, safety is more important than suitability."
Phnom Penh is such a big city. If there was a little gunfight, it would be fine if Luo Shi, a gangster, got the news, but how did Zhan Chengfeng know about it too?
Mo Wan wasn't sure if Zhan Chengfeng was suspicious of her or simply felt it was unsafe for her to go out, so she said, "As long as you have someone available, I don't care."
She finished speaking and added another stab. "The Fourteenth Division just got bombed. Are those soldiers still willing to protect me?"
When they had lost most of their comrades and were eager for revenge, asking them to protect her, a daughter of the underworld, was not an easy task.
Zhan Chengfeng deliberately mocked her and whispered, "Master, they will be willing."
Mo Wan raised her eyebrows, widening her smile. "Let me tell you in advance, I won't consider their feelings."
What this means is that she will only become more aggressive than usual and will not become friendly just because their comrades died.
After Mo Wan finished speaking, he walked away in a carefree manner.
Zhan Chengfeng waited for her to enter the room and then looked at the message he had just received on his phone.
It was sent to him by Liang Chengjian, regarding the new location of the 14th branch.
There is no trace of the Taipan snake, no progress on the special tattoo, and more importantly, the person who leaked the old site has not yet been determined.
Judging from all the circumstances, revenge is something that requires a great deal of energy and time.
So since the higher-ups didn't say to withdraw from Funan, rebuilding the 14th branch is the top priority now.
Zhan Chengfeng returned to the country two days ago to report the situation to his superiors and successfully obtained funding and corresponding personnel support.
He had just returned to Phnom Penh this morning, and before he had finished his meeting with Liang Chengjian and others, Zheng Yi called him to the school to pick him up.
Now it is indeed as the girl said. It is difficult for him to spare manpower to protect her until the new personnel are in place.
But we can't just leave it alone.
Zhan Chengfeng thought about it and sent a message to Liang Chengjian, asking him to hand over the work at hand to someone else.

Early the next morning.
The weather was a bit gloomy and it looked like it would rain at any time, but this did not affect the date of the young couples.
They first went shopping in an indoor mall, and then went to a busy market to eat. They were full of energy, and there was no trace of fatigue on their young and energetic faces.
The two soldiers who had been following them for a whole day saw them picking and choosing in front of the stalls and just found a place to sit.
Xiao Yao asked the boss for a bowl of sugar water and bought a popsicle.
He opened the simple packaging of the popsicle, ate it while watching the man talking to the girl, and couldn't help saying: "I have to say, this boy is quite bold. He actually managed to win over the young master."
Liang Chengjian had a sullen face and didn't want to respond at all.
Xiao Yao took a sip of his popsicle, nudged his comrade next to him, and raised an eyebrow. "See? This kind of love is more interesting when it comes to young people. A sticker worth a few dollars can make the young master smile. How innocent."
Liang Chengjian lowered his head and took a big sip of the sweet soup his boss brought him before looking at the object of his passionate love. "Innocent? That man is the third son of the Ma Group."
Yesterday evening he received an order from his superior to investigate her new boyfriend thoroughly.
Judging from the current information, there is nothing wrong with Ma Chongying except for his complicated family situation.
If there is nothing wrong, why did the commander ask them to follow?
When Liang Chengjian received this task, he was extremely reluctant and even protested to his superiors, but the protest was ineffective.
Xiao Yao saw Liang Chengjian's dark face and knew he was unhappy, so he comforted him. "Brother Cheng, don't be angry. This job is easy. Just think of it as a vacation for us."
Liang Chengjian said: "I would rather work overtime until I die than waste my time here!"
"Hey, how can it be a waste of time? She's the young master of the Red Gate. The commander asked us to protect her. There must be a reason."
"Even if there is a reason, is it more important than catching the Taipan Snake, or more important than avenging my brothers?"
"We can't find the Taipan snake now, right? Don't worry, we'll make these people pay the price sooner or later."
Liang Chengjian frowned, extremely unhappy. "We found some clues about the Taipan snake last night!"
Xiao Yao was surprised. "Really? What clues?"
"Someone said they saw him in Phnom Penh." Liang Chengjian said with a blazing gaze and gritted teeth, "Give me a little more time, and I will definitely catch this venomous snake!"
But now he is assigned to protect this little devil, what a devil!
Xiao Yao wanted to say something, but when he looked up, he didn't see the girl or her boyfriend, so he quickly got up and looked for them.
Liang Chengjian's face also changed. He quickly went to the stall and asked the boss where the person had gone.
The stall owner was frightened by their expressions and pointed in a direction in a panic.
Xiao Yao was about to go there to look for it.
Liang Chengjian looked at the bustling crowd and said calmly, "Let's go to the other side."
Xiao Yao didn't understand why, but he followed him anyway. "What are we doing here? The stall owner said they were going over there."
"With so many people here, if something happened to her, she would definitely panic," Liang Chengjian said as they walked. "Everything is normal now. We can only say that she wanted to get rid of us."
really.
Not long after, they found the target person in front of an antique shop.
Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief and gave him a thumbs-up. "Brother, you really understand her."
Liang Chengjian met the girl's gaze and did not answer.
It was the commander who understood her.
It was his superior who warned him to analyze things rationally and not to be fooled by her.
Mo Wan looked at the two soldiers from afar, and when Ma Chongying came over after buying things, he looked away.
"Wanwan, do you like this cat?" Ma Chongying handed her a silver vintage cat brooch. "I think it looks a bit like you, fierce yet cute... Well, I mean, do you like kittens?"
Seeing his bewildered yet expectant look, Mo Wan took the brooch from his hand. "It's very special."
Seeing that she liked it, Ma Chongying said happily: "The store owner just said it came from Egypt and has a touching story."
"Really? Tell me about it."
"It's said that an Egyptian noble lady came here to travel with her beloved cat. Unfortunately, the cat fell ill and died on the way. She was so grief-stricken that she ordered a craftsman to carve a brooch in the image of the cat, so that she could always be with her beloved cat wherever she went..."
Young couples walked out of the bustling market hand in hand, chatting and talking.
Xiao Yao checked the time. "Are they preparing for the next match or heading back at this hour?"
Liang Chengjian really didn't like today's work. He also didn't like Mo Wan who loved to be clever, and he didn't want to do meaningless things here.
He didn't want to waste any more time.
When the girl went to the bathroom, Liang Chengjian simply said, "I'll ask Bai Yu to take my place."
Before he could call Bai Yu, his cell phone rang first.
It was Zhan Chengfeng who called.
When they saw the commander's name, they both recognized each other.
After Liang Chengjian answered the call, Xiao Yao stared at the direction of the bathroom, fearing that this naughty young master would give them another surprise in the blink of an eye.
Soon.
The girl came out of the bathroom and got into the car with her boyfriend without any incident.
Xiao Yao sat in the passenger seat, looking at the beautiful luxury car in front of him, and said boredly: "Do you think they are going home or to have dinner?"
Liang Chengjian drove slowly and followed them. "I hope they are going home."
"Well, our mission is now successfully completed." Xiao Yao said this and looked at him doubtfully. "Brother Cheng, did you call Bai Yu just now?"
"No."
"Do you think their date is about to end and you don't want to bother Bai Yu anymore?"
"No." Liang Chengjian said meaningfully, "The commander is coming this way."
Xiao Yao sat up curiously upon hearing this. "Is the Commander coming over? To watch the young couple's romance? Wouldn't that make him, a perpetually single man, psychologically twisted? Or... has he finally lost his patience and decided to snatch the young master away?"
Liang Chengjian gave him a look of disdain. "Xiao Yao, don't kowtow to everything."
Xiao Yao was still excited. "Then why do you think it is? It can't be because there's something wrong with our abilities and the commander doesn't trust us, right?"
"is it not OK?"
"No way!"
Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Yao restrained himself. "No way? Commander, you really don't trust us?"
Liang Chengjian stared at the car in front. "That's the venomous snake coming here!"
The latest clue is that someone has seen a Taipan snake near Angkor Wat.
And they are only a few kilometers away from Angkor Wat.
In order to find the young master of Hongmen, Taipanshe was caught by Zhou Yin and released the news that she was involved in the transaction, causing all the police to look for her.
Now that the Taipan snake has appeared nearby, it is very likely coming for her.
Xiao Yao heard Liang Chengjian's words and saw the luxury car in front of him turn a corner and go up the mountain. He said ominously: "They are not going home."
Liang Chengjian looked at the surrounding scenery. "We're not going to eat."
Xiao Yao immediately took out his computer to check their current location.
He looked at the map for a while, his eyes set on a mountain not too far away from them.
Bakheng Mountain.
It is rumored to have the most beautiful sunset in the world and is a perfect date spot for couples.
Seeing that the car in front was driving towards the mountain, Xiao Yao confirmed that his guess was correct and opened the real-life map.
While analyzing the terrain, he told the driver, "Brother Cheng, Bakheng is the only high point nearby, and there are many tourists at this time of year. If a taipan snake really attacks there, we'll be in a very vulnerable position."
Liang Chengjian said solemnly, "Now I just hope that Taipanshe isn't in cahoots with her new boyfriend."
If the Taipan snake knew where she was going and set an ambush there early on, the consequences would be disastrous.
Xiao Yao said, "That's impossible. Ma Chongying is her classmate and the son of the Ma Group. How could he know Taipanshe?"
Liang Chengjian said with a sullen face, "It's not the best."
"No, that's too risky." Xiao Yao was worried. "Brother Cheng, let's pass her and stop her from going up the mountain."
Liang Chengjian did not do so.
Seeing that he showed no signs of speeding up, Xiao Yao urged, "Compared to her safety, a little date is nothing. Brother Cheng, don't hesitate, pass!"
"If she doesn't go, how will the Taipan Snake show up?" Liang Chengjian glanced at him. "Send the location to the commander."
When Xiao Yao heard Liang Chengjian's cold words, he realized something and quickly calmed down.
Yes, the Taipan Snake is coming for the Young Master of Hongmen. If she doesn’t go, how are they going to catch him?
But - do we really have to do this when they are completely unprepared?
Xiao Yao thought of the destroyed branch and his comrades whose ashes could not be found. After struggling for a moment, he sent the latest location to his superiors.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and they can't let it go.
After sending the location, Xiao Yao put on his wireless headphones and called his superior to report the situation here.
While they were busy making a plan to catch the snake.
In the car ahead.
Mo Wan leaned against the car window, feeling the warm breeze and looking at the clean and gorgeous sunset, feeling peaceful in her heart.
Ma Chongying looked at her long hair blown by the wind and her quiet and gentle face and couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at?"
Mo Wan said, "I never realized the sky here could be so beautiful."
"This is just the beginning. When you reach the top of the mountain, you won't want to blink."
"I believe the scenery at the top will be even more beautiful, but right now it's the best, both in terms of scenery and mood."
"I'm honored to hear you say that. It's worth the travel guide I spent all night working on."
Mo Wan sat back down and looked at him. "You didn't sleep all night? How about we not climb to the summit this time and come back next time?"
"I'm glad you're not bored." Ma Chongying looked at the distant sky. "Look, it was cloudy in the morning, but the sun came out in the afternoon. It would be a shame not to see such a beautiful scenery."
The weather was indeed nice today, not a drop of rain fell.
Mo Wan looked at Ma Chongying who was determined to go and said again, "We can't drive up there, right? We have to walk up."
Ma Chongying turned to look at her and said with a smile: "As long as I can be with the person I love, I can climb any mountain."
As he spoke, he turned the steering wheel and drove the car towards the exclusive parking lot of Angkor Wat.
Mo Wan looked at the old buildings outside, hesitated, and did not get off the car immediately.
Ma Chongying walked around to the passenger seat, opened the door, and held out his hand to her. "Come on, Wanwan, we're already here, let's go for a walk."
Mo Wan looked at Ma Chong's handsome face for half a second, then held his hand.
Ma Chongying didn't let go even after she got off the car.
He held her hand and explained to her the surrounding scenic spots as they walked.
