Chapter 343: Chapter 250 Untitled (Third Update) _2

"Ask away." Mu Lin replied indifferently.

"Mu Jue, what is he to you?" He noticed that whenever Mu Lin talked about Mu Jue, something different appeared in her eyes, even... a touch of killing intent.

"He was my master. He was also the only family I used to have in this world." Mu Lin said, with only Qiaozi and Yinzi excluded. To her, Mu Jue was like her parent.

"Ah, I see," he murmured softly. Was she an orphan, then? "And your master, did he have anything to do with that organization?" Despite feeling he should not pry, he couldn’t help to ask after all, because he wanted to know.

"I am not sure yet," Mu Lin shook her head, "But if I were to find out that they were the ones who killed my master, I’ll completely eradicate this damned organization, getting my revenge in blood."

The truth was, Mu Lin was quite certain about it, but she didn’t want to say much more. The few secrets her master had might only be known by the top leaders of the organization.

Anyway, ever since three years ago, Mu Lin and the organization had formed an inextricable and fierce feud; they were at a point where one party must die for the other to survive. Actually, Mu Lin wanted to see if the people in the organization had made any progress over the years. If they were still as pathetic as they were three years ago, she would indeed be disappointed.

Upon hearing Mu Lin’s words, Mo Yinfan’s eyes narrowed slightly, "I’m sorry." He had initially thought that her master might also be a member of that organization who was taken back by the organization for some Mu Lin-related reason. Unexpectedly...

It must be said that Mo is a man with an active imagination.

"It’s been so many years, it doesn’t matter anymore." Mu Lin smiled. She was not the kind to be bogged down reminiscing about the past after experiencing hardships; only by moving forward could she put her master’s spirit to rest; and because she kept moving forward, she managed to get here. At least, those people had gradually become visible to her, hadn’t they?

Seeing no forcefulness on Mu Lin’s face, Mo Yinfan also offered a faint smile.

That was good.

As they had previously speculated, the news about Mo Yinfan’s assassination, after being propagated by an official police investigation and a body taken out from his apartment, caused quite a stir.

No sooner had their car returned to the city building than it was surrounded by the media outside, their faces filled with excitement as they vied for the headline spot.

After all, this was a big story!

They should feel grateful, though. It was because of the commotion that when they returned, Ren Laifeng assigned a dozen SWAT officers to escort them. When the reporters tried to approach, they were stopped by the intimidating officers who were not to be trifled with and would show them no courtesy.

Leisurely pulling out two masks from her bag, Mu Lin offered one to Mo Qian, "Do you want one?"

What a forward-thinking move.

Even though associating with Mo would make her path in the future easier, it didn’t mean Mu Lin was willing to face the reporters’ cameras. She thought the same would be true for Mo Qian. After all, he was quite a low-profile person who didn’t want to be famous.

However, upon seeing the mask in Mu Lin’s hand, Mo Qian’s face was full of disdain, "Do you have anything else?"

Mu Lin flaunted the other mask in her hand, her eyes brimming with jocular light, "You have no choice." Take it or leave it. She was already being kind, and yet he dared show disdain.

Hesitating for a moment, Mo Qian finally accepted the mask from Mu Lin’s hand. He gingerly put it on, swearing that he would always carry a mask with him in the future.

Looking at Mo Qian wearing a mask featuring a big red lip mark, Mu Lin burst into laughter. Even Mo Yinfan can’t help but shake his head in exasperation after seeing it.

Mu Lin definitely did this on purpose.

The mask was a cool black color. However, it was marked with an intensely red, provocative pair of women’s lips, even revealing a toothy smile.

Oddly enough, Mo Yinfan felt that Mo Qian and the mask were unexpectedly fitting.

Under his murderous gaze, Mu Lin chuckled, put on the mask and got out of the car, standing on one side of Mo Yinfan with Mo Qian on the other.

Even though their masks were indeed quite eye-catching, at that moment their original energies seemed to disappear. Even though they were two powerful bodyguards, they seemed invisible in front of everyone, barely noticeable or being outright ignored.

As they exchanged glances, the matching big red lips on their masks and the shared understanding in their eyes revealed an incredible synergy.

As for Mo Yinfan, he was already overwhelmed by countless questions at this moment.

"Mr. Mo, do you know who planned to harm you?"

"Mr. Mo, did you offend someone?" This question was boldly put.

"Mr. Mo, do you..." and so on.

In the end, Mo Yinfan stood at the steps of the city building, looked at all the reporters in front of him, and offered a slight smile. Speaking with the grace inherent in a person of high standing, and understated control, he said, "I have handed over the matter to the police. I believe they will provide a satisfactory answer to me and to all of the media here. I want to thank the media friends and the public for their concern, please leave." Some things do not require many words.

After he finished speaking, he strode away without looking back, leaving the reporters blocked by the officers with no other choice than to analyze and interpret his words.

As for Ren Laifeng, who was left to answer the reporters’ questions, he felt utterly helpless.

He... had no idea how to answer, okay?
