Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 1098 Dazzling Red Lips

Song Chen gritted his teeth, took the saber from a corpse, and began digging a pit in the ground.

Xu Qi silently got up, found a machete, and started digging in the soil.

"Boss, what's our next step?"

"Go back to Los Angeles, find out who the murderer is, and find a chance to avenge our brothers."

Song Chen looked resolute.

Xu Qi, however, had no expectation of revenge.

"Judging from the situation, we can't kill the murderer either."

"Let's fight to the death, or we might end up with our brothers."

Upon hearing this, both men fell silent, digging furiously into the soil, their grief and indignation beyond words.

Lin Feng and Mu Tou Lian had already showered and changed. The two of them were sitting together in Duan Jingqiu's office. One sat opposite the desk, while the other stood behind Lin Feng with a blank expression.

Duan Jingqiu suppressed her surprise, her beautiful eyes barely able to contain her laughter.

"Mr. Kikawa, who is this...?"

"One of my brothers doesn't like to talk, and he especially doesn't like others talking to him."

Duan Jingqiu glanced at the wooden-faced man, feeling quite puzzled. Was there really such a strange person?

However, she quickly put that aside. She was now 100% certain that the man in front of her, Mu Chuan, was no ordinary person, and was quite formidable.

With his business acumen, he once again made the right bet.

Her undisguised joy made her even more radiant and beautiful, like a blooming flower that illuminated the entire room.

"Okay, I won't let anyone disturb him, but what's our next step?"

Lin Feng glanced at Duan Jingqiu's dazzling red lips, and the scene of the artificial respiration he had performed flashed through his mind. He unconsciously smacked his lips to suppress the turmoil in his heart.

“We can’t wait passively any longer. Your dad is too persistent and he’s never going to stop.”

As if sensing something, Duan Jingqiu pouted, a hint of anticipation appearing in her beautiful eyes.

"Mr. Kikawa...you can do whatever you want."

Faced with her provocation, Lin Feng frowned and shook his head. Whether this woman was intentional or unintentional, she always managed to unsettle people's minds.

“My idea is to go to Los Angeles and thwart all of your father’s plans.”

Duan Jingqiu's bright black eyes dimmed slightly as his thoughts turned to Second Master Duan.

"He only cares about family honor and business, and he will not let any obstacle go unpunished."

Lin Feng nodded: "Then... do you mind me..."

Duan Jingqiu was clever; before he could finish speaking, he immediately shook his head.

"No, Mr. Kikawa, you can't bring yourself to kill him."

Lin Feng shrugged: "Actually, the quickest way is for me to eliminate anyone who stands in your way."

Duan Jingqiu shook his head even more violently, without saying a word, just silently shaking his head.

Seeing this, Lin Feng frowned silently.

"Sigh, I hate this kind of thing the most. He can be ruthless, but you can't be unjust. Your relationship with your father has deteriorated to this point, is there any way to salvage it?"

Duan Jingqiu took a deep breath.

"I want to talk to my father face to face; maybe there's still a chance to salvage the situation."

In order to secure a complete and intact deal with the Duan family's business, Lin Feng had no choice but to agree for the time being.

"Alright, then pack your things and go see your father."

"Los Angeles is the headquarters of the Duan family, and it's extremely dangerous inside. I wonder if Mr. Mu Chuan is confident?"

Duan Jingqiu said with some concern.

"You mean there's a master, or...?"

"Fully complicated."

Lin Feng reached out and touched the broken sword hanging at his waist, which he had put inside a thick cloth bag.

The bag has an opening, allowing the broken sword to pass in and out with ease.

"I'll be careful, but..."

He glanced at Duan Jingqiu, knowing that no amount of ruthlessness could work against him.

"If your father were to harden his heart and deal with you, or risk his life to deal with me, the ending probably wouldn't be so good."

Duan Jingqiu's eyes revealed a pleading look.

"Mr. Muchuan, could you please restrain yourself? I, Duan Sanniang, will spend the rest of my life repaying your kindness."

Lin Feng nodded helplessly: "I will try my best to control myself. I don't know why, but I've been a bit short-tempered lately."

Duan Jingqiu smiled gently: "It was Third Sister who disturbed the master's peace."

Suddenly, a maidservant spoke softly outside the door.

"Miss, Mr. Lu Fang has arrived."

Duan Jingqiu was taken aback, then frowned and pondered.

Lin Feng asked, puzzled, "Who is this person?"

“My father’s sworn brother, and also his strategist, his right-hand man.”

"They're still not giving up?"

“Mr. Lu Fang has always treated me well. He is just a scholar and should be safe.”

"So what if there's danger? Please come in and talk."

Lin Feng was no longer going to stay in the shadows; he was going to openly confront Master Duan.

Duan Jingqiu understood the current situation and knew he should speak openly.

"Please speak to Mr. Lu in his office."

Not long after, footsteps sounded outside the door, and the old butler opened the door from the outside with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Lu, please come in. Miss is waiting for you."

"Okay, thank you."

Lin Feng heard a gentle voice, and the next moment, a middle-aged man stepped into the room.

He was gentle and refined, with a warm smile on his face. This expression was very familiar to Lin Feng, as it resembled his own.

"Third Sister, you must have suffered a lot."

Duan Jingqiu stood up, a helpless and bitter smile on his face.

"Mr. Lu, please be the judge in this matter. Who is right and who is wrong?"

Lu Fang didn't answer first, but turned to Lin Feng with a smile and a nod.

"This must be Mr. Muchuan. He is indeed young and promising. I have been filled with admiration for him at first sight."

Lin Feng did not get up and remained seated in his chair, but his signature warm demeanor was still present.

"You're too kind. You two talk. Just pretend I don't exist."

Lu Fang smiled wryly: "Mr. Mu Chuan is a key figure, how could he not exist? Master Duan has also long admired your name."

Their repeated failures led Master Duan and Lu Fang to consider Mu Chuan as the main problem.

Lin Feng drummed his fingers on the armrest of the chair.

"I don't know what Master Duan is thinking. He keeps going on and on. If it weren't for Third Sister stopping me, I would have already taken his head."

Lu Fang was momentarily stunned. This person's words were so impolite that he was unable to respond for a moment.

Duan Jingqiu felt a little embarrassed, after all, Lu Fang was her elder, who had watched her grow up and taught her a lot of knowledge.

He can also be considered my mentor.

"Alas, Master Duan has no choice. For the sake of the family's reputation, he puts himself in pain and torment. How can he not feel sorry for his own daughter?"

Lu Fang sighed and wiped his eyes.

Lin Feng clapped his hands: "Third Sister is innocent. I can testify that we ran away from the bandit group. This also proves that Third Sister is brave and resourceful. Why not let her take over the Duan family business? Second Master is getting old and doesn't have enough energy. Retiring behind the scenes to enjoy his old age will allow him to live a few more years. Isn't that a good thing?"

Lin Feng didn't want to waste time and blurted out all his thoughts.

Lu Fang brought quite a few assassins with him this time. If there's an opportunity, he'll still try to eliminate Duan Jingqiu.

However, he hasn't figured out Mu Chuan's background yet, so he can't take forceful action, as that might get him killed as well.

"Hehe, that is indeed a good idea. I think Second Master Duan will give it serious consideration."

Lu Fang chuckled dryly.

Lin Feng didn't mince words: "What's wrong with your brains, you and Master Duan? You keep failing like this, and sooner or later you'll bury yourselves in the mud. Third Madam will still be in charge, while you won't even have the chance to retire."

Lu Fang couldn't take it anymore. A young man speaking to him like that made him lose face.
