downstairs, Lin Ning and Cai Xiaojing arrived just in time. Cai Xiaojing had been very worried after talking to Warmth on the phone that morning. Hearing Warmth's tone, Ye Fei Mo hadn't come back yet...Xiao Bai ultimately compromised with Ji Bing, willing to stay for one more day. However, Ji Bing refused, insisting on staying for three days. Mo Xiao Bai's face darkened, displeasure evident. Ji Bing always thought that Mo Xiao Bai was so pampered and indulged her, never contradicting her wishes or showing any anger towards her. He had never scolded her either. Now, he was looking at her coldly with an unprecedentedly serious expression. A sense of apprehension and unease filled Ji Bing's heart as she didn't know what to do. He seemed genuinely angry. What should she do What should she do

Although Ji Bing was afraid that Mo Xiaobai would be angry, she really didn't want to leave Bali. So she just stayed silent. She thought Mo Xiaobai would coax her, but he didn't. He still decided to return to Washington early the next morning.

Ji Bing was so wronged that she stormed out of the hotel in a fit of anger.

Mo Xiaobai sighed, Ji Bing was willful and needed to be carefully protected. Everything had to be done her way, which might be related to her memory loss. She always felt uneasy and distrustful of the world, afraid that it would hurt her. He was her only trusted and intimate person, so Ji Bing eagerly wanted his undivided attention and refused to let him be distracted by other things.

Even when it came to work, Ji Bing would sometimes be in low spirits, feeling that he had ignored her. Mo Xiaobai knew that Ji Bing's possessiveness was very strong, but he didn't blame her. All of this was his doing, pampering her like this. Since he spoiled her, he wouldn't pull her down.

He waited for an hour at the hotel but didn't see Ji Bing return. He grew anxious and rushed out to look for her. Soon, he found her on the beach, sitting alone with her body curled up, her gaze fixed blankly on the sea. The world was vast and empty, the night boundless, as if she had been abandoned. Mo Xiaobai's heart ached with pity; an uncontrollable wave of compassion surged within him. He hurried closer, but when Ji Bing saw him, she turned her head away, ignoring him.

Mo Xiaobai said, "Ji Bing, don't make it difficult for me like this, okay"

"You're being mean to me," she accused. Mo Xiaobai spread his hands, grinning playfully, "Alright, I apologize. I shouldn't have made my little treasure angry. If you want me to kneel and count abacus, I'll do it. Just don't be mad, okay"

Ji Bing let out a cold snort, ignoring him. Mo Xiaobai kissed her, feigning hurt, and looked at her with a pitiful expression, saying, "I'm heartbroken too, my darling. It hurts so much that you're not considerate of me."

"How could I not be considerate"

"Then let's head back to Washington."

“We’ve only been here for two days, and I spent a whole day adjusting to the time difference. You said you wanted to play for a week, and now you suddenly want to go back You're the one who’s wrong, and you’re blaming me I'm willing to leave in three days instead of staying for a whole week, but you still say I’m not considerate.” Ji Bing defended herself, feeling that she was being considerate enough.

Mo Xiaobai surrendered, "Okay, okay, okay, you're very considerate. I was wrong. But Ji Bing, I really have something to do, I can't stay in Bali. If it wasn't important, I wouldn't want to leave. I'd be happy to stay with you for a few more days. Just listen to me this time, go back first, and come again in a few months, okay"

Ji Bing was a little unwilling, but Mo Xiaobai had already said so, and she couldn't help it. Seeing Mo Xiaobai grinning mischievously, her anger dissipated. "You said we'll leave tomorrow morning, why can't we leave tonight It's still tomorrow anyway. I want to buy some things, I saw a lot of interesting stuff today that I didn't get."

Mo Xiaobai weighed it for a moment, then nodded. "Alright, let's go tonight. I trust your judgment."

Ji Bing was finally happy and, being magnanimous, didn't hold a grudge against Mo Xiaobai for his earlier frown. Mo Xiaobai smiled wryly. He accompanied Ji Bing on the beach for a while before returning to the hotel. Ji Bing almost fell asleep as soon as she got into bed.

The next day, Mo Xiaobai kept his promise and spent the whole afternoon with Ji Bing on the island. They bought a lot of things. After saying goodbye to Ye Feimo and Wen Nuan, they took a plane back to Washington. Ji Bing was quite satisfied.

Back in Washington, it was already late at night. Pike drove Ji Bing back to her apartment. After settling her down, Mo Xiaobai called Mo Yao, but the call didn't go through. No one answered. Mo Xiaobai turned on his computer to check Mo Yao's whereabouts. Satellite tracking showed that she was near a building next to the Washington government building. Mo Xiaobai called Yun, who told him that Mo Yao had come to Washington alone this time and hadn't brought anyone with her.

Mo Xiaobai drove to find Mo Yao. The streets were deserted at night, with few people around. Mo Xiaobai parked his car downstairs of the building, but unexpectedly found that the boss was already down. He let out a sigh of relief, as long as he was okay.

He waited for Mo Yao in the car. He was restless all day, as if something important was about to happen. He accompanied Ji Bing several times and almost lost his patience. He just wanted to fly back to Washington, fearing that the big boss might have an accident there.

Now that he was confirmed to be alright, Mo Xiaobai's heart finally relaxed.

He should have come with the boss, but since things went smoothly and everyone was safe, he felt relieved. Mo Xiaobai closed his eyes and rested for a few minutes, calculating the time before opening his eyes. At once, he saw a group of people walking out of the building.

He also had doubts in his mind. This place was not far from the government building. Choosing this location for a meeting, whether it was legal or illegal business, they were really bold.

Mo Yao stood out from the crowd. Even with a mask concealing his stunning face, which everyone recognized as the face of the infamous Mafia Godfather, he was still an incredibly handsome man. Tall and slender, with impeccable posture, dressed in a suit and a long black trench coat, he radiated authority. Everyone else seemed to fade into the background. A hint of a smile played on Mo Xiaobai's lips.

Mo Yao and the others left the building, he bid farewell to the counterfeit group, they got into several black limousines and drove away. Mo Yao drove over alone, just about to get in the car, Mo Xiaobai opened the car door and waved happily, "Boss!"

Mo Yao frowned and turned her head to see Mo Xiaobai standing by the street lamp. His appearance was breathtaking, his face carrying his usual smile. That kind of smile seemed carefree in her eyes. Mo Yao didn't want to pay attention to him, but her gaze couldn't help but follow him.

How could he have come

There was a ten-meter gap between them, and the car couldn't pass. Mo Xiaobai crossed the flower bed and walked towards Mo Yao with a smile. Mo Yao looked at him coldly, completely focused. Suddenly, a chilling and dangerous aura approached Mo Xiaobai from behind. Before he could turn his head, he heard a tiny sound, like the sound of a bullet leaving the barrel. Before he could react, he saw a red stain on Mo Yao's chest, and the person slumped softly beside the car.

"Brother!" Mo Xiaobai rushed forward a few steps. Mo Yao pressed his chest, blood continuously gushing from the position of his heart. His eyes widened, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could, he fainted in pain. "Brother, big brother, brother..."

Mo Xiaobai's eyes were bloodshot with fury, his gaze fixated on the skyscraper behind him. He faintly saw a figure flash past, vanishing in an instant. Mo Xiaobai didn't have time to think much, nor could he pursue the sniper. He crouched down, scooped up Mo Yao, and hurriedly carried her to the Washington Black Hand Hospital.

The Mafia has its own hospital in every city, just to make it convenient for treating injuries of the Mafia brothers. Mo Yao was shot, and if he were sent to another hospital, it would definitely cause a commotion.

The speedometer soared to its limit, Mo Xiaobai's hands were trembling. The rearview mirror reflected Mo Yao's unconscious face, so pale, his chest bleeding red onto the seat. His eyes ached, his voice stuck in his throat, a choked, painful ache.

The car pulled up to the hospital, and there were already people waiting outside. As soon as they arrived, they were immediately taken to the emergency room. Mo Xiaobai was anxious to go in, but he was stopped by the doctor at the door. He was very worried and lost his usual composure. The doctor knew the seriousness of the situation, so he called someone over to bring Mo Xiaobai in. Then, several of the best doctors went into the operating room one after another.

"Brother..." Mo Xiaobai was anxious, his blood staining the operating room doorway. A little nurse told him to wash his hands, but Mo Xiaobai stared at his bloody hands, his heart trembling uncontrollably.

>

The boss bled a lot, and it's at his heart. I don't know if he'll be okay.

It's going to be fine, it's going to be fine.

When he went to wash his hands, he saw his disheveled self in the mirror. Mo Xiaobai felt remorseful. Why did he have to come back a day late If he had flown back this morning, he could have gone with Mo Yao, and his brother wouldn't have gotten into trouble. Mo Xiaobai punched the mirror, and it instantly cracked, leaving scratches on his hand that bled profusely. He regretted it; he shouldn't have come back so late.

He shouldn't be back this late.

Brother, you must be alright, please don't have anything wrong.

The deepest fear in his heart spread, gripping him tightly, almost making it impossible for Mo Xiaobai to breathe. He felt like the air of the entire world had vanished, and all he could think about was Mo Yao in the operating room.

After washing his hands, the little nurse saw that his back was injured and hurriedly pulled him aside to disinfect and bandage it. She also told him not to touch water these days. However, Mo Xiaobai seemed to have heard nothing, still lost in thought.

The phone rang for a long time before he picked up. It was Ji Bing calling, she couldn't sleep and wanted to talk to him, but Mo Xiaobai didn't want to say anything at the moment. Ji Bing asked, "Xiaobai, did something happen to you Why don't you speak"

Mo Xiaobai said, "I'm tired, good night."

He hung up the phone, not wanting to say a word. Ji Bing called again, but Mo Xiaobai turned off his phone. He was so frustrated.

The surgery took two hours to finish, Mo Xiaobai hurriedly grabbed the doctor and asked, "How is it"

The doctor said, "Fortunately, his heart is on the right side, so the bullet didn't hit any vital organs. While he's out of danger for now, we still need to see if he makes it through the night. If he gets through the night, he should be fine."ront of Mo Yao, and asked in a deep voice, "What is he here for"He kept his word, saying he wouldn't eavesdrop and wouldn't deliberately listen. He put a safe distance between himself and them, didn't...
