Super Soldier in the City

Li Yifei’s mouth moved slightly, thinking to himself that high-tech weapons might not be impossible to obtain. There are so many arms dealers worldwide, some common weapons, or even guided missiles, can be bought as long as there’s money, though it is quite troublesome.

Li Yifei hung up the phone and continued to search for information. This matter concerns the development of the Li family for the next few years or even longer. As the head of the family, Li Yifei must consider it carefully, and Su Mengxin and the others also regard this as the most important task so far, handling it with great diligence.

As information from various aspects was gathered, Li Yifei’s determination became stronger. He wanted to do this thing, and it was not too difficult.

Li Yifei’s eyes fell on a place on the map - the Middle East.

The Middle East refers to the eastern and southern regions of the Mediterranean, a large area from the eastern Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf. Geographically, "Middle East" also refers to the West Asia and northeastern Africa regions. It includes West Asia and African Egypt. "Middle East" is not a formal geographical term. The climate types in the Middle East are mainly tropical desert climate, Mediterranean climate, and temperate continental climate, with the tropical desert climate being the most widespread. It links three continents, Asia, Europe, and Africa, connects the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean, has always been an east-west traffic hub, located at the "three continents and five seas" region, with an extremely important strategic position. It has been a place of constant warfare over precious water resources and oil resources for years.

"Middle East" is not a formal geographical term. Generally, it includes Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Palestine, UAE, and Yemen.

Except for Israel and Cyprus, they are all Islamic countries. Among these Middle Eastern Islamic countries, Turkey, Iran, and Israel are non-Arab countries.

The Middle East is one of the most sensitive regions in the world in terms of politics, economy, and military. From the end of World War II to the early 1990s, the Middle East has always been the focus of contention between the United States and the Soviet Union, the two superpowers. The important gulf of the Middle East, the Persian Gulf, is rich in oil resources (accounting for 74% of the world’s oil resources). The importance of oil resources in the world energy sector has gradually increased, further enhancing the importance of the Middle East region. In addition, disputes over territory, freshwater, religion, and canals also make the Middle East a focal point of world attention.

Because of the astonishing reserves of oil and natural gas, this place is a must-contest for the world’s strong powers. As the most powerful developing country, Huaxia’s domestic energy demand is growing at an astonishing rate each year, making the Middle East an important energy import region for Huaxia. However, Huaxia’s involvement also threatens the control of the region by countries like Europe, the United States, and Russia.

With more people and more hands, this kind of place becomes even more chaotic.

Li Yifei pointed out a few places on a blueprint that mark some of the countries and regions in the Middle East with the largest oil production, but in some places, war is frequent, terrorist organizations are rampant, and various inhuman massacres often occur.

In the eyes of Su Mengxin and others, this place is not any safer than some countries and places in Africa. But for Li Yifei, he has been here many times and is quite familiar with it. Also, Li Yifei knows some Arabic, making communication easier compared to Africa.

As for the turmoil, as the former captain of the Flying Hawk Squad, Li Yifei knows better than the vast majority of people on this planet how to survive and thrive in such places.

Describing the environment here with a single word "survival" shows that Li Yifei is not optimistic about the Middle East situation.

No need to say more, just watch the TV news reporting these places daily to know how dangerous it is here.

Some countries here, relying on oil, are indeed insanely wealthy. Some Middle Eastern tycoons can simply be described as spending money lavishly on all kinds of luxury goods.

Li Yifei decided to go to this place to find some opportunities to ’serve’ the motherland.

After figuring it out, Li Yifei went to take a shower. Meng Xiaofei brought over a late-night snack. She knew Li Yifei was working on something very important and didn’t pester him, just placed the snack on the table. Hearing the sound of water in the bathroom, Meng Xiaofei naturally knocked on the door and went inside.

As the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar. Li Yifei felt much less ’shy’ now. Knowing it was Meng Xiaofei, he asked, "Why haven’t you slept yet?"

"Ring just made some midnight snacks, and I brought them over for you."

Turning off the shower, Li Yifei said directly, "Since you’re here, help me with my shoulders."

Meng Xiaofei’s small mouth curled into a gentle smile, responding, "Sure."

Li Yifei sat in the bathtub, and Meng Xiaofei knelt beside him, her small hands working on his back, gently massaging him. Li Yifei closed his eyes, occasionally letting out comfortable hums.

When Meng Xiaofei was almost done, Li Yifei opened his eyes and said, "Xiaofei, the day after tomorrow, you should go back to the country first. I need to go to the Middle East for some matters. I’ll return after I’m done."

"Oh?" Meng Xiaofei was only surprised for a few seconds before lightly nodding and saying, "Alright, Brother Li, don’t worry about me. After some thought, I decided not to rush into work after returning. I’ll consider it once everything at home stabilizes."

"Safety first, but don’t worry, after this, there won’t be many people daring to mess with the Li family. I’ll assign you a few bodyguards to ensure your safety."

"Thank you, Brother Li, but there’s no need for that. If I’m still a flight attendant, I have to fly all over the country. How could I bring a bodyguard with me?"

Li Yifei thought for a moment and said, "At least when you fly to the provincial capital and are about to go home, you’ll need a bodyguard. Your Sister Mengxin has already arranged this. You’ll know when you return."

Li Yifei bit her lip. She actually didn’t want to become a troublesome person, but if she got abducted again, she might not be as lucky as this time. So, Meng Xiaofei had no choice but to accept Li Yifei’s arrangement.

After rubbing for a while, Li Yifei stood up directly from the water. He felt his mind was a bit unstable just now, and if they continued to interact this way, something might happen. So, he hurriedly finished his bath, dried off, put on pajamas, looked at Meng Xiaofei, and asked, "Have you bathed yet? Do you want to soak for a bit?"

"I... alright, then I’ll soak for a bit in your water. Brother Li, you go have some late-night snacks first."

"Okay, I’ll leave some for you."

"No need, I’m not hungry, and eating at night makes you gain weight. I want to be slimmer."

"Haha, alright, you soak then, I’m going out. If you need help with a scrub, just call me."

Li Yifei walked out, and Meng Xiaofei slowly took off her pajamas, pants, and underwear, revealing her delicate body. Her body was youthful and vibrant, hardly any excess fat, it was hard to imagine such a body could have such large breasts. She cupped those large mounds with her hands, a blush appearing on her face.

Playing in front of the mirror for a moment, Meng Xiaofei’s eyes seemed lost, as if she was deciding on something, looking a bit hesitant. A few minutes later, Meng Xiaofei felt a chill, pouted at her reflection, clenched her fist, slid her hand down from her chest, over her flat abdomen, over the tuft of hair, brushed past her thigh, then moved upwards again, stopping at a certain place. After a few seconds, she turned and stepped into the bathtub.

Li Yifei had been soaking for a while, the water temperature slightly cool, but Meng Xiaofei found it very comfortable. She lay inside with only her little head exposed, closing her eyes.

Outside, Li Yifei’s computer received some information. After compiling the data, he recorded the important points on paper, carefully read it twice, tore the paper into pieces, tossed it into the trash can, and stood by the window, looking at the moon hanging high in the sky.

Meng Xiaofei came out after her bath without putting on her pajamas but wrapped in a towel, just covering most of her chest at the top and only reaching slightly below her thigh at the bottom, barely covering her full buttocks.

She walked out quietly, and before she could speak, Li Yifei turned around. Seeing Meng Xiaofei dressed like that, Li Yifei felt a slight jolt, then glanced at her eyes, glistening and bright, instinctively licking his lips.

Meng Xiaofei first looked at the snacks on the table, seeing that Li Yifei had already eaten some, she was pleased, pursed her lips, tidied up the snacks, placed them on a plate, and was about to take them out.

"I’ll go. It’s not suitable for you to go out like this." Li Yifei took over, glancing at Meng Xiaofei.

Meng Xiaofei shyly smiled, nodded, and watched as Li Yifei carried the plate out.

When Li Yifei returned, Meng Xiaofei was drying her hair. Li Yifei took the hairdryer, carefully helped Meng Xiaofei dry her hair, put the hairdryer away, and Meng Xiaofei’s hands were tugging on her towel, her big eyes sparkling, looking at Li Yifei.

"Tonight..." Li Yifei began. He clearly felt Meng Xiaofei’s odd demeanor and, after a bit of thinking, could guess her intentions, so he intended to find an excuse to block her words.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he started, Meng Xiaofei’s small hand came over, covering his mouth and managing to block his words.

"Brother Li, rest." Her eyes seemed capable of speaking, conveying desire, embarrassment, and a sense of determination.

Li Yifei’s heart flickered with hesitation before he finally nodded and said, "Alright, let’s sleep."

Sleeping, they had slept together many times before, but this time, it seemed different. In Meng Xiaofei’s heart, like ripples spreading out with those two words.

Pulling Meng Xiaofei to the bedside, Li Yifei lifted the quilt, and Meng Xiaofei slid in first, covered herself, and Li Yifei circled to the other side of the bed. Just as he turned, he saw a towel being tossed out by Meng Xiaofei.
