Urban Super Soldier King-Chapter 673: I’m Following You For Life

Xiang Yu analyzed the recent situation and concluded that although the Evil God was continuously plotting, they definitely wouldn’t act rashly at the moment. Besides, with Feng Lan watching over that side, Xiang Yu felt very reassured.

Although Feng Lan sometimes acted capriciously and loved to hang up the phone suddenly, Xiang Yu knew that she could be trusted.

Zhang Dongxu was a breakthrough for Xiang Yu in the field of weapons; currently, Zhang was on the run, and he would not come to Xiang Yu unless he was desperate, so there was no need for Xiang Yu to worry. All he had to do was ensure Xiao Xuan protected Zhang’s safety.

At present, it was Sun Bo’s side that seemed interesting. Haoran Group and their Yutian Group were rival companies. Since the development of the companies had reached this stage, both sides knew that there must be extraordinary backgrounds behind them.

The reason the other side kept sending a few small-time harassers was definitely to lure Xiang Yu and his team out. Once they were lured out, they could assess their strength and then decide whether to give up or continue the fight.

Thinking of these things, Xiang Yu suddenly smiled. It seemed that the opponent was still a cautious person.

While Xiang Yu was sitting on the sofa thinking about these matters, his phone rang; it was Wang Ze calling to report that the six people causing trouble at Yutian Group had been captured and were now being interrogated.

"Any results?" Xiang Yu asked directly.

"Not very ideal, according to the interrogation, they’re just ordinary thugs. They took someone’s money to cause trouble; they didn’t reveal exactly who," Wang Ze said.

"What comes around goes around, you investigate Haoran Group’s situation as soon as possible, and then send some brothers to capture their top executives. Since they want to play, let’s play along," Xiang Yu said with a smile.

As Wang Ze spent more time following Xiang Yu, he also began to understand Xiang Yu’s style. He was someone who did not play by the book and who did not concern himself with the so-called rules of the underworld. Overall, he was whimsical.

Unpredictable, not giving opponents a chance to intercept him in advance.

After Xiang Yu hung up the phone, he turned to Tie Zhuzi and said, "Go and protect Long Wu in secret, she might be in danger in the next few days."

Tie Zhuzi nodded and left.

Xiang Yu thought for a moment, and realized that no one else needed his protection, so he gave it no further thought.

Now alone in the office, he took out his phone, thought for a while, and then made a call. After two rings, the call was disconnected, and Xiang Yu did not continue to call, instead he put the phone aside and quietly awaited.

About ten minutes later, the phone rang again, it was Commander Cao.

"Have you found any leads on the escaped soldiers I asked you to look for?" Commander Cao laughed.

Xiang Yu knew that the "escaped soldiers" Commander Cao was referring to were indeed Feng Lan and her two companions. Although Xiang Yu had little contact with them, he felt that Feng Lan did not seem to be the type to fear death and easily become a deserter.

On the contrary, they were all people of principle and loyalty; otherwise, Xiang Yu would not trust her so much.

"Just a few deserters, Commander Cao, why are you so concerned?" Xiang Yu asked in response.

Commander Cao was a military commander, and if he had to manage even these matters, he would be worn out. This could only mean one thing: Feng Lan and her companions must know some secrets, secrets that were connected to Commander Cao’s interests.

Hearing Xiang Yu’s words, Commander Cao suddenly paused, but then he burst into laughter. Then he said, "Have you heard something?"

Xiang Yu knew that his attitude might have revealed his suspicion and he chuckled, "I’m just taking some of the burden off you, Commander Cao. Health is important; you shouldn’t overwork yourself. Have you found a young girl to relax with lately?"

"Hmph! Can’t you be serious for once? I’m over fifty years old, where would I go looking for young girls? You’ve been out there for two years, and you’ve become more and more outrageous, not even keeping a guard at your mouth," Commander Cao said angrily, but then he added, "Xiang Yu, two years have passed, your mission must be almost complete, right? Wait till you come back this time; I’ll receive you personally and treat you to a big meal."

"There’s no need for a big meal; I just want to know the specifics about those three deserters. What happened back then?" Xiang Yu asked with a chuckle.

"You don’t need to worry about their affairs; just focus on your mission," Commander Cao said sharply.

Xiang Yu picked up on Commander Cao’s intent and chuckled, bidding farewell before hanging up the phone. Although Xiang Yu was still unaware of the situation, he was sure there were some things he didn’t know.

He suddenly had a bad premonition. Commander Cao was a senior he deeply respected. Even though Xiang Yu was usually carefree, he actually held a lot of respect for Commander Cao.

But now, he vaguely felt that Commander Cao was not as simple as he seemed, which made him somewhat fearful. Eventually, he decided not to think about it further.

The truth would surface sooner or later; Xiang Yu just hoped that his worries were unnecessary.

In the blink of an eye, two years passed. Xiang Yu had promised boldly that within three years, he would clean up the entire province’s underworld forces.

But the reality was, after he arrived, he realized the problem was far more complex than he imagined. He had come from City Number One, moved across provinces to take over this city. Now, he was stuck here because of the Evil God issue. If it reached three years and he hadn’t completed his mission and Commander Cao called him back, he would leave with many regrets.

Lying on the couch, Xiang Yu drifted off into a hazy sleep. He didn’t know how much time had passed when he suddenly felt someone approaching and his hand instinctively grabbed the person’s wrist.

All he could feel was that the wrist was very slender, the skin extremely smooth.

Xiang Yu kept holding on without letting go, then lying there with closed eyes, he said, "If I suddenly left one day, what would you think?"

The person standing there was Long Wu, who had come in to see Xiang Yu sleeping there and had brought over a blanket. Now that Xiang Yu suddenly said such words, she was stunned as well.

If Xiang Yu really did leave all of a sudden, would she stay in this city? Originally, it was because of Xiang Yu that she came here. A city without Xiang Yu would be meaningless to her.

Long Wu didn’t respond to Xiang Yu’s words and struggled free from his grasp to drape the blanket over him.

Xiang Yu lay there without moving, not sure why. When Xiang Yu slept, only Long Wu could approach him; anyone else would be attacked if they got close.

Long Wu sat quietly opposite Xiang Yu watching as he drifted back into a deep sleep. Then she sighed and said, "Wherever you go, I’ll follow. This life, I’m committed to you."

Long Wu continued to sit there watching Xiang Yu for a long while until, seeing no sign of him waking up, she left.

But shortly after Long Wu left, Xiang Yu sat up. Holding Long Wu’s hand had felt so comfortable, if she hadn’t pulled away forcefully, he might have struggled to restrain himself from pulling her into his arms...
