Tommy turned his head to look at Vita, who was talking with Mrs.

Smith, then glanced at Yelena next to Gao Yang.

Finally, he said in a daze, “I had planned to go to Portland with you to pick the guns I need, then head to Serbia.”

Gao Yang nodded and said, “I know, you’re going to Europe, Li Jinfang is headed to Africa.

What’s wrong?

Did something happen to you?”

Tommy looked incredulous and said, “But, Ms.

Apolkina wants to go to Serbia with me.”

Gao Yang’s eyes were wide as if they were about to pop out, and Yelena also covered her mouth, looking shocked.

After a long while, Yelena finally said in a daze, “Did you cast a spell on Vita?

She hardly talks to men now, and you’ve just met her, yet you can make her go to Europe with you?

Are you a magician?”

Gao Yang, still full of admiration, held up his thumb at Tommy and sincerely said, “Tommy, impressive, I salute you.

Indeed, the older the man, the more impressive.

You keep saying no, no, but you are really the shy type, hmm, sorry, slip of the tongue, anyway, I really admire you.”

Tommy’s expression became even more embarrassed as he sheepishly said, “It wasn’t me who invited her; Ms.

Apolkina herself requested to go.

I, I don’t know if I should agree to it.

I’m considering it.

Boss, my head’s all mixed up right now, can you give me some advice?”

Yelena looked utterly bewildered, while Gao Yang looked at Tommy with solemn respect and said, “Tommy, I’ve started to worship you, truly.”

Yelena’s expression changed several times before she looked at Tommy and said, “What magic do you have that could make Vita, who had decided to remain single, fall so quickly?”

Tommy bitterly smiled and said, “It’s not what you think, please don’t misunderstand.

Ms.

Apolkina and I have no intentions of pursuing each other.

We just get along well.

Uh, she wants to go to Serbia with me just because I talked about the children I care for.

Ms.

Apolkina is a very compassionate person; she wants to go and see those children I mentioned.”

Gao Yang said dismissively, “Come on, Tommy, you and I both know that nobody develops so-called compassion for no reason.

She’s taken a liking to you, she definitely has, or else she wouldn’t run off to Europe to ‘show compassion.’ There are plenty of needy children in America, why doesn’t she sponsor a few of them instead?”

Yelena shook her head and said, “No, I think maybe Vita really did have an overflow of compassion.

You know, there are people in the world called ‘saints.’ Perhaps, Vita didn’t realize she had the potential to be a saint until after talking with Tommy, who is a real-life saint, and then it dawned on her.”

Tommy bitterly smiled and said, “Please, don’t call me a saint.

I’m just taking care of the children of fallen comrades.

It’s a responsibility that I, the one who survived, must bear.

As for taking care of other needy individuals, I’m not interested.”

Gao Yang shrugged and said, “Well, whatever the reason, I don’t see what there is to hesitate about.

If Vita wants to go with you, just take her along.”

Tommy thought for a moment, then said, “But, I really don’t want to take her.

I’ve said it before, I don’t want to start a family or anything like that.

Traveling a long distance with a lady won’t be an easy process.”

Gao Yang sighed and patted Tommy on the shoulder, saying, “Man, you’re not old.

When we call you an old man, we’re just kidding.

Believe me, you should take her.

You’ve already done enough for your comrades.

Now, it’s time to think about yourself.

Go on, do as I say, invite Vita, and then take her to visit your hometown.”

Tommy was still hesitant, and Gao Yang finally couldn’t help saying, “What are you worried about?”

Tommy just gave a bitter smile and said, “Boss, I really didn’t expect that, apart from helping me earn a lot of money, the Satan Mercenary Corps would care so much about my personal life.

You guys, you’re really special.”

Gao Yang laughed heartily and said, “Come on, once you join Satan, we’re all family.

We certainly can’t just watch you live alone until you die, right?

Man, ‘Worker Bee’ suits you, but I hope you won’t actually live like a worker bee, tirelessly working until you silently perish.

Enjoy real life a bit.

The money you’ve earned now is enough to support the orphans of your comrades, and you can also live comfortably.

Think about it, you might not be rich just yet, but at least you’re not broke anymore.”

Tommy was moved and said, “You’re right, I used to have to shoulder the responsibility of taking care of dozens of people, and I never had enough money.

But now, it seems I actually have some extra cash for myself.”

After speaking, Tommy bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then said, “Alright, I’ll invite Ms.

Apolkina.

I’ll ask her to go to Europe with me.”

After finishing, Tommy turned and walked towards Vita, but after just two steps, he suddenly turned back and said to Gao Yang, “Thank you.”

Yelena shrugged her shoulders and smiled at Gao Yang, “Your team is full of oddballs, it seems everyone here has a story.

It seems now you’re not only changing Tommy’s financial situation but also his life.”

Gao Yang sighed and said, “I don’t have the power to change anyone’s life.

He makes money because he has the ability.

To be honest, having a gunner like Tommy, all of us are happier about earning big money than he is.

Besides, introducing Vita to Tommy wasn’t even my idea, it was something Rabbit and a few others thought of.”

Yelena smiled slightly and said, “You know, your mercenary group doesn’t feel like a mercenary group at all, more like a big family.

You guys are nothing like other mercenary groups.”

Gao Yang looked curiously at Yelena and said, “You talk as if you know a lot about mercenary groups.”

Yelena proudly said, “Of course, both my fiancé and my dad are mercenaries, how could I not understand this profession?

I know more about it than you might think.”

Gao Yang laughed heartily and said, “Well, maybe as you say, we’re not really like a mercenary group but more like a big family.

However, I like it this way.

You must understand, when we’re together, we need to entrust our lives to one another.

If my mercenary group is a united family, it’s definitely better than some groups that are put together just for money.”

Yelena nodded and smiled, “That’s right, but such a mercenary group is really rare.

Not many can achieve this.

They think about it, but they can’t do it.

So, being able to do this, you’re really an incredible person.” (To be continued.
