Chen Mo's face turned dark.

"Okay, boy, don't look so bitter. At worst, you won't be a bounty hunter anymore. How much money can a bounty hunter make? I let you do this job just to temper your temperament." Lao Bai said with a smile: "It will be a trial opening tomorrow. Be happy and let you see how much money the bar can make in a day."

Chen Mo took the cup and took two sips.

"Huh? What is this? It tastes good, but it's too sweet."

"A cocktail that has been popular on the home planet for a long time, Cuba Libre." Lao Bai threw a thick stack of documents: "There is a bunch of cocktail mixing information in it."

"oh."

"Jiajia won't be back at F113 for a while. We are short of a bartender, so you can take over first."

"Old man, I'm still young, and I don't plan to spend the rest of my life guarding the tavern with you." Chen Mo shook his head.

"Fuck, then go and find a bartender for me." Lao Bai cursed, "Wouldn't it be nice to have a stable job?"

"It's good, that's good." Chen Mo nodded: "But when you were young, your ideal was not to have a big house and a few good cars, right?"

Lao Bai was stunned for a moment.

"Don't worry, old man. I'll try not to cause trouble. As you said, I can't let you wipe my butt every time." Chen Mo patted Lao Bai on the shoulder: "But you also taught me that I don't want to cause trouble, but I can't be afraid of it either. Isn’t it?”

"You kid..."

"Old man, people will change." Chen Mo held a cigarette in his mouth: "Just like when I was a kid, I always said my father was Lao Bai when I was bragging, but now you call my son a night owl. The shadow of a person's name is the tree. Son, if we haven’t seen each other for a long time, we will become unknown. Old man, just go ahead and do it, I will make the name Ye Xiao even more famous.”

Lao Bai was silent for a long time and then nodded.

"Take it easy, I don't want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person."

"rest assured."

Chen Mo smiled and clinked glasses with Lao Bai.

The fierce man finished cleaning up the advertising signs outside and walked in.

"Ye Xiao, Zheng Qi's mother is seriously ill and hospitalized. Why don't we go and see him?"

Although 6K did not help much in the detention center, Chen Mo always remembered the care he gave to Zheng Qi.

"Yeah." Chen Mo put on his coat: "That's right."

"Don't go there empty-handed, bring some fruit milk." Lao Bai instructed.

"Know."

After buying some nutritional supplements, Mengren drove, with Chen Mo sitting in the passenger seat, and headed for the No. 1 Hospital in Area A.

"How did you know the news?" Chen Mo asked.

"Zheng Qi called and said that his mother seemed to have some kind of acute renal failure. The old lady was fine last time I saw her." The fierce man sighed: "Old Zheng doesn't want to deal with his former comrades, but he is relatively familiar with me."

Chen Mo nodded.

Arriving at the No. 1 Hospital in Area A, Zheng Qi was sitting on a chair outside the emergency room on the fifth floor. He smiled miserably when he saw Chen Mo and the others arriving.

The fierce man put the nutritional supplements on the ground: "How is Auntie?"

"I fell critically ill three times."

"Ah this..."

"Hey, I paid too little attention to my mother." Zheng Qi sighed: "After the operation, I have been busy with the election. My mother has been in Xiacheng District all year round, and the heavy metal content in her body seriously exceeded the standard. I fainted at home and found out after get off work. , it was already dead when it was delivered... There is no time to transplant a prosthetic kidney, whether it can survive depends on God's will."

Chen Mo and Chen Mo were accompanying Zheng Qi outside the emergency room.

About half an hour later, a doctor came out, took off his mask, and slowly shook his head at Zheng Qi.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zheng. We've tried our best. Our condolences and our understanding."

Zheng Qi had already been mentally prepared. When he heard that his mother had really passed away, he couldn't help but feel his heart twisting and he staggered.

Chen Mo and Meng Ren quickly helped Zheng Qi.

"Old Zheng, please go back and rest first. Ye Xiao and I will take care of Auntie's funeral affairs."

"I'm fine." Zheng Qi took a few deep breaths.



Zheng Qi's mother's funeral was scheduled for the next day.

The old lady only had a few close friends during her lifetime, and Zheng Qi's connections were not very wide. Only a few dozen people attended the funeral.

After all, they were an old couple who had been together for more than ten years. Zheng Qi's father also attended the funeral.

Father Zheng looks very young, in his early forties, with neat short hair that makes him look very handsome. He looks more like Zheng Qi's brother.

When he saw Zheng Qi's father presenting flowers, Chen Mo clearly felt that Zheng Qiuhong's whole body tensed up.

"What's wrong?"

Zheng Qiuhong's breathing was rapid.

"he…"

"What?"

"He's my father!"

"Um?"

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment and then understood.

"Zheng Qi's father is also your father. Are you and Zheng Qi brother and sister? Half-brother and sister?"

Zheng Qiuhong shook his head: "I don't know."

Throughout the funeral, Zheng Qiuhong was absent-minded and hid closely behind Chen Mo, for fear of being discovered by Zheng's father.

Chen Mo has been comforting her.

After the funeral, Father Zheng was about to leave in a hurry, but was cut off by Chen Mo.

Father Zheng looked at the tall man in front of him blankly.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Chen Mo. I would like to ask Mr. Zheng if you have a girl?"

Father Zheng was obviously a little wary.

"Why do you ask this?"

"Just answer me." Chen Mo had a sinister aura about him, which scared Father Zheng quite a lot. Zheng Qi saw it from the side and hurried over to form a siege.

Passing Chen Mo a cigarette, Zheng Qi asked, "What's wrong?"

"Ask your father something."

"Oh, this is Ye Xiao. If something happens to him, you'd better cooperate with him, otherwise I won't be able to save you." Zheng Qi didn't like his father at all.

When he was fourteen years old, Zheng's father abandoned Zheng Qi's mother and son.

Later, they cut off contact directly.

At this moment, knowing that he was doing well, he actually came here and planned to restore the relationship between father and son in the name of his mother's funeral.

Zheng Qi's contempt and disdain for Zheng's father had been written into his bones. Now that he knew something was wrong with Chen Mo, he suddenly sided with Chen Mo.

"Ye Xiao... you are an assassin..." Father Zheng was shocked.

"Okay, just know it. No need to say it." Chen Mo stopped Zheng's father and asked again: "Did you remarry and have a girl?"

"I have already handed over my life to AC Technology, what do you want from me?" Father Zheng looked helpless.

"What's your girl's name?"

"Zheng Qiuhong."

Chen Mo pondered for a moment.

"Okay, it's okay, let's go."

After sending Father Zheng away, Chen Mo looked at Zheng Qi with a strange look.

"Hey, don't look at me like that, I'm flustered."

"Old Zheng, you know you have a half-sister, right?"

"I know, but I've never seen it."

"Your sister is my girlfriend."

Zheng Qi's saliva got stuck in his throat and he choked and coughed repeatedly.

"Cough cough cough cough, what?!" Zheng Qi opened his eyes wide.

"You heard that right. Your half-sister, Zheng Qiuhong, is now my girlfriend... uh, what should I call you? Brother-in-law?"

It was only then that Zheng Qiuhong came over timidly.

Blood relationships are sometimes very strange. Two people who have never met will know that the other is their relative at the first sight.

"Sister?" Zheng Qi called tentatively.

"elder brother."
