Absence should have made the honeymoon period even more enjoyable, but because of his slight suspicion, he ruined everything.

Middle-aged couples often experience the seven-year itch.

Passion has long been diluted by the mundane realities of daily life, naturally leading to a marital crisis.

John McLean, however, is a notoriously violent detective in the NYPD, with a stubborn and obstinate personality, which goes without saying.

Holly is also a strong woman who is praised by her boss as a business genius.

When the two of them are together, it's like they're at each other's throats!

They often argue fiercely over trivial matters.

In reality, after parting ways, one can't help but miss the other person.

After John McLean secretly felt annoyed.

upstairs.

Byakuya and Mariko were enjoying the warmth of their long-awaited reunion.

a long time.

Mariko couldn't help but speak up:

"So...Ms. Becky, is she your new girlfriend?"

Just now, she saw Lingdie holding Baiye's hand, and they looked quite intimate.

"Of course not!" Bai Ye shook his head and said, "She is just a business partner of mine. The relationship between us is similar to the relationship between you and her."

"As you may know, Psylocke's identity is not as simple as it seems on the surface. She is one of the core members of the Hellfire Clan, so I have a lot of interaction with her."

"But how could she be my girlfriend? Look at her, she's so old, she's practically an old lady, she's from a completely different generation than us."

Bai Ye said.

"No, Ms. Becky is quite beautiful, isn't she?"

Mariko said.

To be honest, she felt much better after hearing Bai Ye say that.

Which woman would want to see her first love reunite with a new girlfriend?

"She's just a middle-aged woman, but compared to you, Mariko, she's worlds apart, there's no comparison at all."

Bai Ye smiled.

"Don't talk nonsense. If someone hears you, you'll be in big trouble."

Mariko extended her slender finger and pressed it against Byakuya's lips.

But Bai Ye stuck out his tongue and gently licked Mariko's finger, making Mariko feel as if she had been electrocuted. She glared at Bai Ye.

“My father also told me that Ms. Becky is a member of the Hellfire Club. It’s a behemoth that spans the whole world and has considerable power. You must be extremely careful when dealing with them, Bai Ye.”

Mariko looked at Byakuya with concern:

"Otherwise, they might swallow you whole, skin and bones."

"Don't worry, I was prepared," Bai Ye said. "If she wants to devour me, it won't be that easy."

"Ah."

Mariko enjoyed a moment of peace that belonged only to the two of them.

"Bai Ye, perhaps you should find a new girlfriend and move on from the past."

Mariko suddenly said.

"Ok?"

Bai Ye raised an eyebrow and looked at Mariko.

Mariko choked up slightly and said:

"I can't defy my family and my father; we are destined to be apart. I can't give you happiness, so I can't keep you from being bound. With your excellence, you can find a better woman to be with you!"

"I don't want anyone else, I only want you!"

Byakuya whispered in Mariko's ear:

"Don't worry, give me some more time, and I will definitely find a way to get your father to marry you to me!"

"You will always be mine, and no one can separate us!"

"white night!"

Mariko, once again excited, silenced Byakuya's mouth with her moist red lips.

no way.

The power of Marvel's most heartfelt story is truly immense.

How could an ordinary girl withstand that?

Just as Byakuya and Mariko were entwined again, a car pulled up in front of the building.

A blond man dressed in black and a black man walked into the building.

The black guy seemed quite lively as he talked about basketball.

The receptionist glanced at it but didn't pay any attention.

As the two approached, the black man drew the receptionist's attention, while the blond man pulled out a gun from his pocket and shot the receptionist in the forehead.

"Bang! Two points!"

The black man cheered, jumped onto the front desk, and pulled out a walkie-talkie:

"Over!"

Bai Ye and Mariko were having a heart-to-heart talk, exchanging sincere feelings, when suddenly Bai Ye paused and perked up his ears.

"what happened?"

Mariko twisted her waist and asked in confusion.

Bai Ye's eyes narrowed slightly:

"There are gunshots down below, it seems something has happened."

###Chapter 128 A few thousand yuan a month? What kind of life are you living for? ###

"Something happened?"

Mariko asked:

"You mean... robbers? No way, this is Manhattan, New York!"

“That’s right, this is New York, not Japan.” Bai Ye nodded: “The United States has its own unique circumstances!”

In fact, besides the United States, there are many other countries in the world that do not ban guns, such as the United States, and even Japan does not ban guns, but there are almost zero shooting incidents in Japan.

Because the conditions for purchasing firearms in Japan are very strict, it is extremely difficult for ordinary citizens to legally buy firearms.

In Japan, there are only three legal gun dealerships, which is a very small number for a country with a population of over 100 million, thus limiting the ways people can buy guns.

In addition, in Japan, to legally own a firearm, one must undergo a series of rigorous training programs, which are very complex. Furthermore, there are high requirements for those who are authorized to carry firearms, ensuring that those who are authorized to carry firearms are generally highly qualified, thus reducing the crime rate.

Therefore, even though Japan does not ban guns, the gun crime rate in Japan is very low due to these restrictions.

In contrast, in the United States, the government does not impose many restrictions on gun ownership.

Moreover, there are many ways to buy guns. Gun stores can be found everywhere on the streets and alleys, and many adults even accompany their children to buy guns.

Even if a regular gun store doesn't have a suitable weapon, you can buy one on the black market. In short, if you have money, there are many ways to acquire firearms. This so-called "freedom" poses a significant threat to the lives of ordinary citizens.

Mariko said in surprise, "I've often heard about shootings in America, but I never imagined that this kind of thing is so common here."

"More or less, but now is not the time to talk about that," Bai Ye said. "Mariko, has Yashida Industries offended anyone recently? Or has your branch office gotten into some trouble?"

Mariko shook her head and said, "As one of the largest conglomerates in Asia, Yashida Industries is bound to attract attention and has many enemies, but it's not like they would act in this way towards us."

"Uncle Aoki is usually a rather old-fashioned and steady person, so it's unlikely he would..."

Suddenly, Mariko paused, as if she had thought of something:

"Could it be that they're after those $640 million bearer bonds from the Swiss bank?"

"So much money?" Bai Ye said, "That's certainly very possible. So much money is enough to make even the most ruthless bandits risk a heist."

"No, I have to call the police right away!"

Mariko quickly took out her phone to dial 911.

Even for a company as large as Yashida Industries, $640 million is not a small sum.

But she soon discovered that the phone had no signal at all.

It was only then that she realized that if the enemy was doing such a big deal and didn't even block cell phone signals, wouldn't they be courting death?

"Never mind." Mariko sighed. "Money isn't that important. As long as everyone is safe, that's all that matters. I just hope that after those people get the money, they'll release the others."

Although Mariko should theoretically have a share in Yashida Industries' assets, her grandfather and father are still alive, so who knows what will happen when Yashida Industries is passed down to her?

"You really are very open-minded."

Bai Ye smiled.

Mariko quickly dressed herself, wearing a black lace bra, panties, and a skirt suit...

"Let's go, I'll take you to a safe place first, then I'll go check the situation."

Bai Ye finished dressing, pulled up his pants, and said.

"it is good!"

Mariko grasped Byakuya's hand.

She knew that Bai Ye was very powerful.

As for herself, she was just a helpless little girl who would be doomed if she encountered those vicious robbers.

As Bai Ye held Mariko's smooth little hand, he opened the door and hadn't even stepped out when he heard soft footsteps coming from the corridor.

Mariko was startled, her bright eyes turning nervously to look at Byakuya.
