Chapter 129: Unable to Give Her Love (Humbly Asking for Your Subscription)

After successfully rescuing Li Nanxing, Lin Fan’s mood greatly improved. The other Dragon Soul members no longer held back; they began joking and laughing freely among themselves. Li Nanxing’s body was somewhat swollen and decayed from being submerged in water for too long, but as a doctor skilled in toxicology, Lin Fan trusted that with time, he would fully recover.

“Zhang Lei, Nanxing, and the other Dragon Soul brothers, stay here for now. Qiangzi, Mo Fei, and I will head back to Huaxia,” Lin Fan said. As for Ren Qianxing, he had flown out directly yesterday. Lin Fan had wanted him to stay one more day, but Ren Qianxing refused. Although he said nothing, Lin Fan knew he was worried about something happening to Lin Yan. Seeing his brother so determined, Lin Fan didn’t say more and personally saw him off.

“Come on, boss, I want to go back with you too,” Zhang Lei put on a sour face and said, “This place is no fun at all. All the young women here are so dark-skinned, it’s just not worth looking at. Look at the young women in Huaxia—beautiful and charming, and they know how to please you…”

Lin Fan quickly shot him a glare, afraid he would say something disgusting next. He knew Zhang Lei all too well. “You think we’re going back for pleasure? I’m having you stay here because there are more important tasks for you. Zhang Lei, you’ll come with me to see General Jin Zhengyang. You’ll be responsible for handling the matter I discussed with him last time as soon as possible.”

Lin Fan had already informed Zhang Lei about the cooperation between Dragon Soul and the Blue Flag Army regarding drugs, so he naturally understood what Lin Fan was referring to. Hearing Lin Fan’s words, Zhang Lei nodded and said, “No problem, boss. Leave it to me. You can rest easy.”

Seeing Zhang Lei agree, Mo Fei grinned mischievously, patted his shoulder, and said, “Zhang Lei, don’t act like you’re unwilling. The Golden Triangle is a great place. The cost of living here is lower than in Huaxia. If you spend a little money, there’s no shortage of beautiful young women here—women everywhere, ready to have fun.” Mo Fei was thrilled to be going back with Lin Fan and couldn’t help but feel a bit gleeful.

“Nothing of the sort. They’re all so dark-skinned they look like blacks. When I see them, I think I’m still in Africa,” Zhang Lei said.

“Damn it, you know nothing! That’s called wheat-colored skin, okay? It looks a bit dark, but when you touch it, it’s smooth like tofu—the best of the best,” Mo Fei boasted.

Li Nanxing shot them both a sharp look and said, “You’re staying here on a mission. Don’t think this is some place to chase girls around. Don’t be careless and get sick.”

The two immediately stopped arguing. Lin Fan shook his head and took a sip of tea. But wherever Zhang Lei and Mo Fei were, peace was hard to come by. Zhang Lei’s eyes darted around before he said, “Mo Fei, since you praise the Golden Triangle so much, how about we swap? I go back with the boss, and you stay here. There are more young girls here, you know. How about that?”

Lin Fan immediately put down his tea and said, “Not a bad idea.”

“Wise boss! Truly wise,” Zhang Lei took the chance to flatter Lin Fan. But Lin Fan changed tone and said, “Mo Fei, since you think this place is so great, you stay here with Zhang Lei. Qiangzi can come back with me. Feifei is already on vacation, spending all her time with Lin Yan. I believe Ren Qianxing can protect them. Keeping Mo Fei in Huaxia is just letting him chase girls everywhere. Better to have him handle some real work here in the Golden Triangle.”

“No, boss, no! I was wrong, really wrong!” Mo Fei lunged at Lin Fan, but Lin Fan was prepared and quickly dodged aside.

“It's settled then. Your mission isn’t too heavy this time, so don’t rush. If you have time, explore around. The Golden Triangle has some beautiful scenery. You should also rest well. And remember, be cautious of the Hell Angels. No one knows when they might strike. When we return, I’ll have Xiaoyong gather intelligence on that secretive group.”

The Hell Angels knew too much about Dragon Soul and Star Soul, but Lin Fan realized he knew too little about them. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. He didn’t want to die one day without knowing how, so it was best to prepare early.

“Zhang Lei, I swear I’ll kill you! What the hell did you say that made me stay in this godforsaken place?” Seeing Lin Fan’s decision, Mo Fei immediately pointed his gun at Zhang Lei and unleashed a barrage of insults.

“You deserve it! Who told you this place was good? Serves you right for showing off!” Spittle flew through the air as the two argued.

Lin Fan watched the young men bicker and smiled faintly. “Remember, your main task is to open up the Japanese drug market for Dragon Soul. This is the most important part of your mission.”

“Got it, boss,” everyone’s faces turned serious as they responded in unison. They knew when to joke and when to get down to business—the Dragon Soul members were clearly very clear about this.

“Boss, will the organization cover our travel expenses? I don’t have any money left in my account, haha!” one of the Dragon Soul brothers said with a goofy smile. They were well aware of Lin Fan’s character—ruthless to enemies but loyal to brothers.

Lin Fan glanced at them helplessly and said, “No problem. The organization’s account will advance the funds first. Later, it will be deducted from your salary and mission rewards.”

“Don’t be so cruel, boss,” Zhang Lei and Mo Fei immediately objected.

“Get lost! Xiaoyong is such a miser, won’t give a penny. If you want money, go ask him. I don’t have a single cent,” Lin Fan joked with them before sending them off.

For some reason, even though he had been away from Huaxia for only a few days, Lin Fan’s longing for Zhao Ying grew stronger each day. Perhaps this was the magic of love. Lin Fan had to admit that even a hero could not resist the charm of a beautiful woman. He was probably truly caught in that young girl’s spell.

Afterward, Lin Fan took Zhang Lei to meet General Jin Zhengyang. Xu Qiang also took the opportunity to coach the burly man on his sniper skills. After briefly discussing some matters, Lin Fan and the group went sightseeing nearby, picking out local souvenirs with commemorative value to give to Zhao Ying, as well as his sister Feifei, and Tang Rui.

Although Lin Fan knew Feifei might be developing feelings for him, he understood she was and always would be his sister. That would never change. He could give her family love and anything else, but never the kind of love she desired.
