“You watched him grow up, so he can more or less be considered your godson. After that, we still need your help! Besides, we old fellows are all old sailing ships. Since someone can blaze a new path, why don’t we give him a push?”

This was the first time Tang Mingkun had spoken his mind. He felt that his good friend should be thinking the same thing. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so enthusiastic about helping Lu Ming after playing a few rounds of chess. Lu Ming was really a good child. He originally wanted to let him develop freely and didn’t intend to intervene.

However, after seeing what his godson had done, he completely changed his mind. He wanted Little Ming to become the founder of the new era. If anyone dared to stop him, they could not blame him for being rude! However, he was already so old, yet he was still so hot-blooded. Perhaps he had to thank Little Ming.

It was the other party who gave him hope, and it was also the other party who stirred his heart that had long become slick and sly.

The old leader did not comment on this. He clearly thought so too. He shook his fan and said, “If I were a few decades younger, I might have joined the world of you young people. Unfortunately, I can’t break through with my old bones. Little Ming, I’ll leave the future of China to you.”

He paused for a moment and continued, “I have something I want you to do. They recommended many young and promising fellows to me, but after thinking about it, you’re the most suitable person for this. With your personality and methods, you’ll definitely hand over a perfect answer sheet, right? And it just so happens to be your area of expertise.”

I’m most suitable?

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly. He couldn’t think of anything that made the leader lower himself to ask him for help, but the only thing that was worth confirming was that it wasn’t a small matter! He subconsciously looked at where his godfather was and saw that the other party seemed to have thought of something and said, “This is a good experience for you.”

Experience?

Why are these two people talking in riddles? So they are only hiding it from me? Lu Ming said helplessly, “You have to give me some hints, right? You’re making me guess without anything. Aren’t you overestimating me? Godfather? Old leader?”

Seeing that he was no longer as calm and composed as usual, all that was left was a laugh. They seemed to have found some entertainment and laughed out loud in unison. After a long time, the two of them finally restrained themselves. The old leader patted his stomach and said, “Little Ming, I need you to help the government fight crime. Of course, I’m referring to a combination of politics and economics.”

In the first half of the conversation, Lu Ming was still puzzled. He was not very skilled. If he was asked to fight crime, wouldn’t he be sent over to die? It was only after the other party finished speaking that he realized that if it was a crime of political and economic integration, it might really be quite suitable for him. After all, Lu Ming Corporation could be considered a powerful entity in the country.

Isn’t it easy to find out anything?

Another sentence immediately pulled him back to reality. “It’s just that before that, I need to get the relevant departments to collect evidence. If you find anything new, contact us at any time. Remember not to alert them. Those people are quite vigilant. Previously, every time we showed any signs, they would disappear without a trace. This time, we finally caught their tail again. I assume you understand the importance of this matter?”

Lu Ming nodded and said, “I understand.”

Every lead was not easy to come by, and many people had put in a lot of effort. If he was reckless and caused all the time and money invested to go down the drain, wouldn’t he be a sinner for all eternity? The old leader had entrusted him with such an important matter, so how could he disappoint him?

“But you don’t have to be too nervous. Just relax and treat it as if you’re on a business trip. Of course, if you’re discovered, I’d prefer you to protect yourself first. Because those guys are different from the people in the country. They’re a group of terrorists. After all, they’re all outlaws. It’s normal for them to carry dangerous weapons.”

Tang Mingkun couldn’t help but say worriedly, “Why don’t you bring a few more self-defense items with you before you go over? I’ll arrange for a few more people from the Tang family to be in charge of your safety. I don’t want to see you come back short of two kilograms. How should I explain to my in-laws and Jinyu then?”

“Godfather, don’t worry. Have you forgotten that I have a private bodyguard company?”

…

At dusk, Chu Jinyu sat on the sofa and watched as time passed. She could not help but wonder what Brother Lu Ming and his godfather had gone to do. If she had not been tripped up by work today, she would have followed them. Thinking of this, she sighed softly.

Suddenly, a sound attracted her attention. Could it be that Brother Lu Ming had returned? Her expression changed instantly! Then she stared in that direction with anticipation. In the next second, a familiar figure appeared! She said in surprise, “Brother Lu Ming!”

Immediately after, she pounced without hesitation.

Lu Ming picked her up with a smile and said, “Sorry to keep you waiting. I specially bought you some food outside. You should be hungry, right? Did you eat lunch on time? You didn’t get buried in your work, right? I even instructed Ji Yu to go to the office during her lunch break to see if there was anyone there. She told me that she didn’t see you.”

“Hmph.”

Chu Jinyu placed her hands on her hips proudly and said, “After I listened to you, I ate especially well for lunch. Look! My stomach is about to protrude. I allow you to touch it and feel the weight of lunch!”

Lu Ming did not stand on ceremony and directly touched it. The soft touch immediately came. He could not help but touch it a few more times. Unexpectedly, he tickled his wife’s flesh. Immediately, the room echoed with laughter. Not to be outdone, she chose to fight back! Lu Ming was not paying attention and she succeeded!

The two of them were like children, playing back and forth!

In the end, they were all panting heavily and their smiles froze. Chu Jinyu leaned on her husband’s shoulder obediently and said, “What were you guys talking about when you were out for so long? Was it work? I even went to ask Mom, but she wasn’t willing to tell me anything.”

“Sort of a job.”

Although he could have come back earlier, he could not resist the old leader’s chess addiction. He insisted on playing a few rounds with Lu Ming. That was why he was delayed. Moreover… he did not intend to tell her the mission that the old leader had given him. He did not want to get Little Yu involved in dangerous situations.

So he handed her the snack he’d bought outside and said, “I plan to buy a country.”
