<h4>Chapter 572: Chapter 568 Mand is Coming</h4>


    At dawn, when the first ray of sunlight dispersed the darkness over Modu, the gloom and the atmosphere also vanishedpletely.


    For the average person, it was just another ordinary day, but for some, it was a sleepless day. Last night, the Sky Alliance had be history. In the sh between the Rose Society and the Sky Alliance, the Rose Society emerged as the ultimate victor.


    Some former allies of the Sky Alliance suddenly felt as if thunder had struck their heads. They couldn’t have imagined that in just one short day, the Sky Alliance would be history, a stepping stone for the Rose Society to build its reputation. These people were even more anxious, fearing that the Rose Society might seek retribution against them when autumn came.


    However, this matter concerned only those who were well-informed. For the general public, what really shocked them was that the Zhang Group had alsopletely be history.


    This morning, news spread throughout Modu that the old chairman of Zhang Group, Zhang Quanshan, had died unexpectedly, and Bai’s Groupunched a financial attack against Zhang Group at dawn, acquiring most of its shares in a short period, nearly taking over the entire corporation.


    Although Bai’s Group didn’t have the strength topletely swallow up Zhang Group, as soon as Bai’s Group made a move, otherpanies in Modu started to join in, eager to tear off a piece of flesh from Zhang Group.


    Although Zhang Group was still holding on, anyone with clear eyes could see that it was barely clinging on and wouldn’tst much longer.


    All these changes left everyone somewhat stunned and unable to make sense of things. No one could have imagined that Zhang Group, which had been imposing enough to stand up against Bai’s Group just half a month ago, would be ruined in an instant, like a high-rise made of sand that copses at the first gust of wind.


    But all this had nothing to do with Lu Tianxing anymore. He only emerged from his room with panda eyes when the day was already well underway.


    Recallingst night’s events, Lu Tianxing had a bitter smile on his face. ording to the way things had been going yesterday evening, he should have had a decisive battle with Bai Zhiqing, but when he got home, he was intercepted by that little wench Bai Weiwei. Especially after she noticed the unfaded blush on Bai Zhiqing’s face and her slightly swollen lips, it was like Columbus discovering a new continent. She dragged Bai Zhiqing into the room, iming they needed a sisterly talk all night, telling him to find somewhere else to sleep.


    "Bai Weiwei, that little brat is asking for a beating. Sooner orter, I’ll show you how formidable I am, and stop you from ruining my good deeds all the time,"


    Lu Tianxing grumbled as he waved his fist fiercely. After a quick wash-up, he didn’t go to the office but instead hailed a taxi and headed straight for Modu International Airport.


    The day before yesterday, he had called Mand in advance, asking her toe to Modu. This morning, he received a call from Mand, saying she would arrive in Modu soon.


    Asking Mand to protect Bai Zhiqing was a decision Lu Tianxing had made after careful consideration.


    Bai Zhiqing was now a target, constantly watched by people wanting her life. Tie Niu and Fu Tu couldn’t protect Bai Zhiqing around the clock. The only suitable person was Mand, who was skilled in the use of poison, able to silently bring about death. Moreover, with Mand’s adorable appearance, it would be hard to imagine that the girl apanying Bai Zhiqing was a fearsome poison expert from the Netherworld Mercenary Corps.


    With Mand by Bai Zhiqing’s side, she could be protected twenty-four hours a day without drawing attention, especially since, in a couple of days, he would leave Modu. He had to arrange everything for Bai Zhiqing before he left.


    Although he’d eliminated the Night Wolf Mercenary Corps and deterred the covetous assassins and mercenaries, Modu was not as calm as it appeared on the surface. The Japenese who had once tried to assassinate him had not been captured, and there was even a mysterious Heavenly God lurking nearby, watching intently. He had to organize everything, in case something happened and he would regret it for life.


    Since it was already past ten o’clock, and there weren’t many cars on the road, Lu Tianxing didn’t bother driving himself and simply took a taxi to the airport. By the time he reached the airport, it was just past ten forty, with over twenty minutes left before Mand’s arrival.


    Standing bored at the exit, Lu Tianxing admired the beautiful womening and going, with a faint smile on his lips.


    Suddenly, a melodious ringtone sounded. When Lu Tianxing saw the familiar caller ID, he was slightly taken aback but immediately answered, "Honey..."


    Before Lu Tianxing could continue, Bai Zhiqing interrupted him: "Lu Tianxing, where are you? Why haven’t youe to the office yet? Did you go to see some seductress again?"


    Bai Zhiqing sounded somewhat displeased. Just yesterday, she had been preparing to ept Lu Tianxing in her heart. She had been looking forward to him inviting her to watch a movie today, but the rascal hadn’t shown up at the office since early in the morning. It was almost eleven o’clock, and he should have been there by the usual time. His absence meant he was definitely hiding something from her.


    Listening to Bai Zhiqing’s somewhat angry voice, Lu Tianxing hurriedly exined, "Honey, you’ve got it all wrong. I have something to do this noon. A friend of mine ising to Modu, and I have to pick her up at the airport."


    "A friend?"


    Bai Zhiqing let out a coldugh and said, "Another old friend, huh? You sure have a lot of old friends."


    Lu Tianxing was embarrassed and quickly exined, "Not an old friend, she’s a younger sister of a friend of mine who ising to Modu to visit. She asked me to pick her up."


    "A friend’s sister, huh? Who are you trying to fool! Just wait for me, I’ll be right there. If you dare to lie to me, you’re dead."


    Bai Zhiqing scoffed, and without giving Lu Tianxing another chance to speak, she hung up the phone abruptly.


    Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Lu Tianxing revealed a wry smile. Who could have imagined that after falling in love, an icy chairwoman could undergo such a tremendous change and be so incredibly jealous?


    But then again, it made sense. Bai Zhiqing had never been in a rtionship and didn’t even know what it felt like to be in love, so it was natural for her to feel insecure. There was nothing wrong with that. It also showed that she had taken Lu Tianxing to heart.


    As time ticked by, the crowd at the airport grew denser. Standing there, bored out of his skull, Lu Tianxing suddenly heard a voice as clear and melodious as ark, causing him to instinctively turn around and look.


    What met his gaze was a delicate and cute face with refined features and slightly upturned lips, giving off a vibe of youthful vitality. The girl’s joyous expression and stylish attire attracted attention. At 160 centimeters tall, she was dressed in a white T-shirt emzoned with arge ko, paired with blue denim hot pants that showcased her slender legs, making it hard to look away.


    "Bro, I’m seeing you again."


    The girl’s face lit up with incredible excitement, and without caring about the stares of everyone around, she threw herself into Lu Tianxing’s arms, hugging his arm coquettishly, "Bro, are you surprised to see me, happy or not? It’s been over a year; did you miss me?"


    Lu Tianxing, looking at the delicate face close at hand, also showed a faint smile. This girl was Mand, the poison expert of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, who struck fear in countless hearts.


    "Manman, you’re here." Lu Tianxing smiled, letting Mand cling to his arm.


    "Of course I am. How can I not obey Big Bro’s orders?" Mand replied sweetly, shing a cute pair of dimples. She nced around perplexedly and asked, "Bro, where’s Sister-in-Law? Why don’t I see her? Bro, you’re wrong for this. It’s my first time in Modu, how can you not let me meet Sister-in-Law? Or did you not actually win her over, and you two are just in a sham marriage?"


    "I..."


    Before Lu Tianxing could open his mouth to exin, a crisp voice filled with a hint of anger rang out from behind, "Lu Tianxing, is this your so-called picking up your sister?"


    Upon hearing this voice, Lu Tianxing and Mand turned to look forward, only to see a stunningly beautiful woman in an OL outfit standing nearby, her fiery eyes trained on Lu Tianxing, barely able to conceal the murderous intent within.


    Who else could it be if not Bai Zhiqing, who had rushed over after hearing the news?


    "Lu Tianxing, aren’t you going to exin who she is?" Bai Zhiqing demanded, looking somewhat angrily at Lu Tianxing. Justst night, Lu Tianxing had been affectionate with her, and if it hadn’t been for Bai Weiwei showing up out of the blue, she might have let Lu Tianxing have his way with her. Yet, here was Lu Tianxing, flirting with a beautiful girl. Just looking at her, the girl seemed to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, barely of age. How could Lu Tianxingy his hands on someone so young? How could she not be furious?


    "Wife, she..."


    Before Lu Tianxing could finish, Mand had already let go of Lu Tianxing and ran over to Bai Zhiqing, greeting her with a sunny smile, "Sister-in-Law, it’s so nice to meet you! I was just discussing you with my brother! I didn’t expect you to arrive so soon."


    With that, Mand directly ran to Bai Zhiqing’s side and hooked her arm, acting like they were long-lost friends meeting again after a long time.


    Thank you for the reward, Ruǎn, and I’m seeking rmendation tickets. If anyone has a rmendation ticket, throw it my way! You’ll have more tomorrow, so don’t be shy; throw them over to me, I can handle it, really!!!
