"Hehe, bragging again. You can play here by yourself; I have some things to attend to!" Tang Rou giggled as she saw Yun Hao turning around, his face full of speechlessness and frustration. Then, under Yun Hao's gaze, she turned and left!

In the following days, Yun Hao had nothing to do and traveled back and forth between Sea Sky Hotel and Prosperous International daily, while the reality show was being aired intensely. Not only did Ying'Er and Park Yueyao's popularity further increase, but their net worth also doubled!

And for newcomers like Yuan Sitong and Lu Fan, their fame surged significantly, with Lu Fan becoming the new national goddess and national male idol!

Especially Lu Fan, the young heartthrob, has reached a point where any random post on Weibo gets tens of thousands of comments!

Even before the first season of the reality show completely finished, several TV stations were already in contact about the broadcast location and time for the second season, accompanied by numerous sponsors eager to discuss contract terms!

It seemed like everything was on track, yet hidden from the public view, there were undercurrents lurking beneath the surface!

In just the span of a week, various mercenary corps in Africa have experienced attacks to varying degrees all over the continents outside the African battlefield. Even the Thunder Mercenary Corps and the third-ranked Golden Leopard Mercenary Corps have faced considerable setbacks!

Even the mighty Fallen Angel Mercenary Corps that has dominated the African battlefield for over a decade suffered personnel losses from a mysterious force's ambush!

So for this period, the African battlefield has been quieter than it has been in decades; the different forces seem to have reached an unspoken agreement to halt internal conflicts temporarily, focusing on resolving external threats first!

Of course, this unwritten rule is only relative, applying between the major mercenary corps, while having no real effect on smaller mercenary squads of merely dozens!

This morning, upon waking up, Yun Hao received a call from Liu Mengqi, saying that Fama wants to invite the key leaders of major mercenary corps to discuss how to deal with the external forces continuously attacking them!

"Alright then, I'll wrap things up here and return tonight!" Yun Hao was not surprised by this call; he had already anticipated it. Fama, after all, is the leader of Fallen Angel, Africa's largest mercenary corps. If Yun Hao weren't invited to the leaders' meeting he organized, it would be quite odd indeed!

"Honey, Shishi, I'm going back to Africa tonight!"

"Going to Africa? Isn't it dangerous? I want to go with you!" Chu Yan stood up immediately, looking at Yun Hao with concern!

"It's not dangerous, honey. It's just some people like me gathering to discuss some matters. Even if there is a fight, I might not need to get involved!" Yun Hao was surprised by Chu Yan's strong reaction and hurried to console her.

"No way, I'm going with you!" Chu Yan stubbornly shook her head in refusal and continued, "I'll call the company right now and have Wu Long take care of things in my absence!"

"Me too!" Zhao Shishi put down her chopsticks upon hearing Chu Yan's words!

"No, Shishi, Sea Sky Hotel isn't like Prosperous International; they still need you there!" Chu Yan immediately stopped Zhao Shishi's thought, then tried to convince her using emotion and reason.

Yun Hao didn't really know how Chu Yan managed to persuade Zhao Shishi, but eventually, Zhao Shishi agreed not to go. So in the evening, Yun Hao and Chu Yan boarded a plane bound for Africa together!

"Honey, am I being too selfish?" On the plane, Chu Yan suddenly blurted out to Yun Hao!

"It's me being selfish!" Yun Hao, though he didn't ask, knew what Chu Yan referred to; it was surely about her insistence that Zhao Shishi not come along today. Cleverly, he redirected the blame to himself!

"By saying Sea Sky Hotel needed her management, I forced her to stay behind. I only wanted a chance to be alone with you; I want more than just the time we have together at night sleeping!" Chu Yan grasped Yun Hao's arm and slowly spoke.

"Even if you go with me to Africa, there won't be much alone time there; when I go out for business, I definitely won't take you along; Mengqi will be keeping you company for sure!"

"It doesn't matter; at least I'll be the first person you see when you return! This time, I want to be a little selfish!" Chu Yan pouted coquettishly.

"Alright, why don't you take a nap now; it'll be a little while before we arrive." Yun Hao could only helplessly smile, then gently advised Chu Yan to rest, for what else could he say?

Upon arriving at the airport, Yun Hao and Chu Yan got into the car sent by Liu Mengqi to pick them up, driving straight to Thunder's base!

"Ah, Xiao Yan also came; sit with me and chat for a while, leave Yun Hao to discuss some matters with them!" Seeing Chu Yan accompany Yun Hao, Liu Mengqi decisively pulled Chu Yan aside, leaving Seductive Snake and the other squad leaders to discuss the upcoming plans with Yun Hao!

"Hey, here's the invitation; take a look!" Once in the meeting room, Seductive Snake handed the invitation card to Yun Hao.

"Each mercenary corps can send only up to two participants?" After reading the invitation, Yun Hao murmured softly with a frown, "Fama is cautious as usual, alright, I'll go personally the day after tomorrow!"

"Just you going? What if Fama has a trap laid out?" Seductive Snake looked at Yun Hao with a serious expression!

"Yeah, Team Yun, what if Fallen Angel has a trap prepared?" Other squad leaders chimed in, voicing their agreement!

It's not that they're suspicious without reason, but it's best not to trust anyone on the African battlefield, especially hostile mercenary corps. Otherwise, you might meet an unknown end!

"Fama wouldn't stoop so low; he's a man of dignity. Don't worry!" Yun Hao didn't put much credence in Seductive Snake or his teammates' concerns, given his extensive understanding of Fama!

"No way, I'm going with you; if you're worried your wife might misunderstand, then have Tank return and accompany you!" Seductive Snake stated firmly.

"Alright, you'll come with me then; Tank has a lot going on as well, and there's someone over there who needs his protection!" Forced by circumstances, Yun Hao had no choice but to choose Seductive Snake to accompany him, since Tank had to stay with the Profound Group and Celestial Group in Nanjiang City!
