At this moment, when Liu Xiaoya saw that Wang Hu actually saluted her and even called her 'sister-in-law,' her face turned as red as an apple, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.

"Hahaha! Kid, well said! Well called! I'll forgive you on behalf of your sister-in-law, hahaha!"

Butcher burst into laughter. Apparently, Wang Hu's response made him very happy.

Wang Hu also breathed a sigh of relief, and he admired himself.

As for the others, they all nodded. What Wang Hu said was very clever, not only making Butcher happy but also bringing Liu Xiaoya and Butcher closer, and ultimately making Liu Xiaoya forgive him. Even if Butcher doesn't forgive, since Butcher likes Liu Xiaoya, he will surely go along with Liu Xiaoya's decision, so what he said was indeed very clever.

"Wang Hu, you did well. I have to say, not only have you gained weight over the years, but you've also learned how to handle things!" Lin Fei said with a smile.

"It's all thanks to you, Instructor Lin. Sadly, in the end, for some unknown reason, you left. At the time, I thought it was a pity, and I also knew it was because of Wu Yufeng's frame-up." Wang Hu said.

"How do you know?"

Lin Fei showed a look of confusion.

"Here's the situation, Instructor Lin. I've told you I'm part of the inspection team and know about some confidential files. As far as I know, it's very likely that someone from the higher-ups will come to find you soon." Wang Hu said.

This made Lin Fei even more puzzled, and he asked, "Find me? Why would they want to find me? Could it be..." Lin Fei couldn't help but wonder if the higher-ups knew he had killed Wu Yufeng.

But Wang Hu said, "It seems that Mo Country's higher-ups know you're in Peng City, so they plan to send someone down to commend you and hope you'll return to Mo Country again."

Hearing this, Lin Fei breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed, and said, "The higher-ups in Mo Country still want to commend me? But I'm not interested anymore. If I accept, wouldn't it mean I lose my freedom again?"

Lin Fei had long gotten used to this kind of life. The system in Mo Country was too strict. As an official, he could hardly leave his post. Although there were fine clothes and good food, Lin Fei wasn't interested, as that's not the life he pursued.

"Instructor Lin, this is a rare opportunity. If you seize it, you could quickly become part of the higher-ups in Mo Country! You'd be so prestigious then." Wang Hu said.

If Lin Fei became one of the higher-ups in Mo Country, then Wang Hu, Lin Fei's former student, would also feel immensely proud. At least in front of many people, just saying he's Lin Fei's student would make others give him face out of respect for Lin Fei.

Lin Fei shook his head. He didn't expect that although Wang Hu hadn't changed his loyalty to him, this was all based on the possibility of Lin Fei becoming a high-level official in Mo Country. Hence, Lin Fei didn't like this kind of person and didn't want to have much interaction with him.

"What brings you here this time?" Lin Fei didn't want to say more and asked Wang Hu.

Wang Hu was taken aback. It seemed Lin Fei truly didn't want to have any more ties with Mo Country, as he had heard about the past events.

It was heard that Lin Fei left because Mo Country's higher-ups sided with a child from one of the prominent families among the higher-ups, giving Lin Fei a perfunctory reason. But they didn't expect that Lin Fei would directly leave Mo Country, withdraw from Mo Country's organization, disappear for so many years, and the higher-ups unexpectedly decided to reuse Lin Fei, which was hard to understand.

"Instructor Lin, this time I'm here entirely because of Wu Yufeng." As he spoke, Wang Hu secretly observed Lin Fei's expression, but to his disappointment, Lin Fei remained calm.

Lin Fei asked, "What's up with that scoundrel Wu Yufeng?"

"He's dead." Wang Hu said straightforwardly.

"Oh?" He actually died? Heaven's eyes opened at last. He should have died long ago, but it's a pity I didn't see what he looked like at his death or if he had any last wishes. What a shame.

Regarding the matter of killing Wu Yufeng, Lin Fei wouldn't tell anyone. This matter could easily trigger the higher-ups in Mo Country, so he couldn't say a word, not even to Wang Hu. Who knows what Wang Hu is thinking now?

Wang Hu felt helpless. He knew his instructor Lin Fei wasn't someone who would give away clues. It was clear that finding anything would be impossible. He said, "Wu Yufeng was directly attacked by a terrorist organization, and it was the kind where there was nothing left of him. Although he's already dead, the higher-ups still asked me to come investigate just in case anything was missed."

Song An picked up a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks, ate it, and said, "So what did you find?"

"Nothing. Wu Yufeng's death left no traces to follow, and the terrorist organization executed the plan seamlessly. They only targeted Colonel Wu Yufeng, while other casualties were minimal." Wang Hu said.

Lin Fei nodded and said, "If you didn't find anything, you should go back early. What's the point of wasting time here? It's not worth wasting resources for someone who should have died long ago."

Wang Hu smiled wryly, thinking that only Lin Fei would dare say such things. After all, the feud between Lin Fei and Wu Yufeng had been a topic of interest for many people. Now that Wu Yufeng was dead, Lin Fei should be the biggest winner, although there were quite a few people suspicious of Lin Fei's activities in Peng City.

However, it was later verified that Lin Fei had already been in Peng City before Wu Yufeng arrived, which had helped Lin Fei escape many accusations.

And yet, Wang Hu didn't know that the higher-ups had long known about Lin Fei, and sending Wang Hu was merely to silence some rumors, with no other reason. If they suspected Lin Fei, they wouldn't have intended to commend him.

"Well, let's cut the idle talk and drink. This meal serves as farewell for Wang Hu, hahaha." Lin Fei raised his glass, laughing. Besides, Wang Hu wouldn't find anything out, and it had nothing to do with him.

Wang Hu forced a smile, then raised his glass. Everyone started exchanging drinks, finally dispersing happily.

On the way back, Lin Fei thought for a moment, then looked at Butcher. Butcher understood Song An's meaning, looked at Liu Xiaoya, and asked, "Xiaoya, where are you planning to go?"

This question made everyone look at Liu Xiaoya. Butcher's question was appropriate. They were preparing to go home, but if they went home, where did Liu Xiaoya belong? Butcher liked Liu Xiaoya, but they weren't bandits who would take women by force, so Butcher asked this question.

This was a question Butcher didn't want to face right now but had to. Everyone was waiting for Liu Xiaoya's answer. If she said no, and rejected Butcher, he wouldn't force her.
