Chapter 30 Will Happiness Last Forever

After the meeting, everyone left except for the five guards. The six of them sat inside the meeting hall.

Ma Jingguo said, "I want you to know that after we come to terms with the six sectors, I will leave Sunset Sector with xiao shushu."

Yao Hu, "Why?"

Ma Jingguo explained, "At the beginning, I promised shifu to help him out of the Gu prison and bring Sunset Sector back into the martial arts world. Which I already fulfilled that promised. The five of you are my successors."

Tong Keung asked, "Is there any reason why the chief suddenly decided to leave?"

Ma Jingguo said, "From the beginning, I have no intention of staying. I am still here because now we are at war with the six sectors and four households. You also might question me why I choose Chaomei as my successor."

Yuan Chaomei, "Chief please explain, I'm still confused about your decision."

Ma Jingguo said, "I have been thinking about Wen Jiayi's letter. She wrote that one of the yuan betrayed the sector. I thought a lot and came to the conclusion that the reason behind the betrayal may be the successor of leader Yuan was not hand down to a Yuan." The five nodded in agreement. "To be honest, among the five of you, the leader seat is more suitable for leader Tong, but I am afraid that if I hand over the leader seat to him, what happened many years ago, will repeat itself."

Yuan Chaomei asked, "Chief, where are you going?"

Ma Jingguo said, "I'm going to the market to buy some vegetable and tofu." Ma Jingguo slowly disappeared outside the main entrance.

Yao Hou, "Chief seems to be very considerate towards this Mu Dishi."

Tong Leung said, "Leader Yao, you may have been imprisoned for a long time, and you have never heard of Mu Dishi."

Yao Hou excitedly said, "Tell me."

Tong Leung, "Mu Dishi is the only person who successfully completed the Killer Strings Manual other than right-hand guard Zan."

Si Meifeng added, "Also, there are rumors in the martial arts world that chief has deep affection for Mu Dishi." She frowned. "No wonder chief fall for Mu Dishi. I also like him, even with his pale face, he is still very handsome."

In a dark secluded section of Mangsha Sector, Mu Dishi sat at the table with four lighted candles, watching Ma Jinggou who was cooking in the kitchen humming happily. Ma Jinggou would look up at Mu Dishi from time to time, as if if he didn't look at Mu Dishi, Mu Dishi would disappear inexplicably.

Ma Jinggou put the last dish on the plate. He grabbed the two dishes and placed them on the table in front of Mu Dishi. He returned to the kitchen, brought two bowls of rice, and sat in front of Mu Dishi. He sat and looked at Mu Dishi with a smile.

Ma Jinggou smiled and said, "Xiao shushu, let's eat." Then he tapped the top of the bowl twice with his chopsticks. "Oh, I forgot." He picked up the stool and sat down beside Mu Dishi. He picked up a piece of tofu and brought it to Mu Dishi's mouth. "Here xiao shushu, I know you like tofu." Mu Dishi refused to open his mouth. "Xiao shushu, don't be stubborn." Mu Dishi still did not open his mouth. Ma Jinggou smiled. "Maybe you don't like me feeding you like this." He stuffed the piece of tofu into his mouth, pulled Mu Dishi's face closer, and kissed Mu Dishi. Using his tongue, he pushed the piece of tofu into Mu Dishi's mouth.

Mu Dishi did not speak, but looked at Ma Jinggou coldly.

Ma Jinggou scoffed, "Xiao shushu, I like those cold eyes looking at me." He put another piece of tofu into his mouth.

Mu Dishi said coldly, "I can eat by myself, let me go."

Ma Jinggou smiled and said, "Alright." He stretched his hand to Mu Dishi's chest. Then he withdrew his hand. He picked up the rice in the bowl and moved the bowl to Mu Dishi's mouth.

Mu Dishi said, "I said I can eat it myself."

Ma Jinggou replied, "I worked very hard to keep you. I don't want to risk you running away. What if I let you go and you leave me again?"

Mu Dishi, "I won't."

Ma Jinggou smiled, "Xiao shushu, you have abandoned me so many times, and now I just can't take your words seriously. I will feed you." Mu Dishi looked in another direction. "Xiao shushu, if you don't like me to feed you by hand, then I will feed you by mouth...choose one."

Mu Dishi opened his mouth slowly, and Ma Jinggou began to feed Mu Dishi. After the two of them had eaten, Ma Jinggou picked up Mu Dishi and carried him into the small bamboo shed. Ma Jinggou put Mu Dishi on the bed and began to undress himself.

Mu Dishi asked, "What are you doing?"

Ma Jingguo smiled and said, "Let's take a bath together."

Mu Dishi declined in a cold voice, "No."

Ma Jingguo completely took off his clothes and began to undress Mu Dishi. He saw Mu Dishi blush very badly. Even with a pale face, Ma Jingguo could see the blush on Mu Dishi's cheeks. After Ma Jingguo completely took off Mu Dishi's clothes, he picked up Mu Dishi and carried him into the bath tub. Ma Jingguo sat behind Mu Dishi and began to wash Mu Dishi's hair.

Ma Jingguo said, "Xiao shushu, why do you always resist my touch?" He put his arms around Mu Dishi's waist and leaned his head on his back. "Let us cherish the moment we are together now, because we don't know how long happiness will last." He kissed Mu Dishi's back. "I have been chasing you all these years. I'm very tired." He held Mu Dishi tighter. "I don't know how many torn shoes I have worn. How many tears I have shed over the years. How many times have I told myself that it is time to give up and not chase you anymore, because I am so tired, but every time..." His voice was broken. "Just because I wanted to see you again, I forced myself to get up, put on new shoes, and lied to myself that this time was different from the last time, and chased you again. Xiao shushu, please tell me, will our happiness last forever?"

Mu Dishi felt Ma Jingguo's warm tears streaming down his back. He knew that for so many years, he thought he was protecting Ma Jingguo, but he was actually hurting Ma Jingguo. There are too many reasons why Ma Jingguo doesn't need to be with him, but Ma Jingguo still chooses to be with him.

Mu Dishi said softly, "Jingguo…" He felt Ma Jingguo's grasping became tighter. "Do you remember what I told you the last time we separated on that cliff?"

Ma Jingguo remembered the moment when Mu Dishi stretched out his hands and wiped away the tears from Ma Jingguo's eyes. Mu Dishi stretched out his arms and hugged Ma Jingguo's waist tightly. Mu Dishi buried his face on Ma Jingguo's chest and assured Ma Jingguo that from that moment on, he would listen to Ma Jingguo. He will never leave Ma Jingguo. He will not act alone, they will make all decisions together. He also told Ma Jingguo that he wanted to travel this vast land with Ma Jingguo.

Ma Jingguo murmured, "How could I forget?"

Mu Dishi said, "I meant what I said. Even if you didn't feed me lighter than feather, don't block my acupuncture points. As long as you want me by your side. I will stay."

Ma Jingguo quickly released Mu Dishi's acupuncture points and Mu Dishi turned around to face Ma Jingguo. Ma Jingguo said softly, "Xiao shushu, is not that I don't trust you, but I am doubting myself. When everything is resolved, let's go home."

Mu Dishi, "Mm…"

The door suddenly opened, and Wang Biming directly shot three daggers at Ma Jingguo. Ma Jingguo quickly blocked Mu Dishi's acupuncture points and grabbed the white cloth on the wooden board. Ma Jingguo quickly wrapped it around his waist. Immediately afterwards, seven red thread needles flew directly to Ma Jingguo, and Ma Jingguo grabbed the screen panel and sent the screen panel at Cao Wenyan.

Wang Biming grabbed the sheets and rushed towards Mu Dishi. Just when Ma Jingguo was about to fight Wang Biming, Yong Taihua broke through the window and began to attack Ma Jingguo, forcing him to distance himself further away from Mu Dishi. Wang Biming hurriedly wrapped the white sheets around Mu Dishi, picked up Mu Dishi, and rushed out the door.

Ma Jingguo shouted, "Wang Biming put him down!"

Yong Taihua lunged his sword from behind Ma Jingguo. Ma Jingguo grabbed Yong Taihua's sword with his bare hands, hit Yong Taihua's chest heavily, and sent Yong Taihua out through the broken window.

Ma Jingguo rushed out of the room, behind Wang Biming, exuding a powerful devil fist power aiming at Wang Biming's back. Wang Biming knew that he would be hit in the back, and threw Mu Dishi's to Cao Wenyan. Cao Wenyan grabbed Mu Dishi and they flew over the wall separating the secluded courtyard from the main Mangsha Sector. Ma Jingguo screamed in anger and slammed his powerful devil fist directly at Wang Biming's back, knocking Wang Biming to the ground.

Ma Jingguo, naked with only a white cloth wrapped around his waist, bent down and grabbed Wang Biming's throat. He gritted his teeth, "I'm so annoying by you."

Wang Biming gave a chuckle, with blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, "As long as I am still breathing, I will be the thrones in your eyes." He continued to chuckle.

A red thread needle flew out of the darkness and was tightly wrapped around Ma Jingguo's right hand. When the needle turned back to stab Ma Jingguo, Ma Jingguo threw Wang Biming to the ground and quickly backed away. At the same time, Miao Mingzhu flew over and threw a white powder at Ma Jingguo. Miao Mingzhu grabbed Wang Biming and jumped over the wall.

Ma Jingguo walked angrily to Yong Taihua. He looked at Yong Taihua with a pair of hateful eyes. He gnashing his teeth and said, "Heaven have roads but you choose not to walk, hell have no road but you keep digging your way in. Yong Taihua! Give me back my xiao shushu or I will have to break my promise to Dandan..."
