    He Tian forcefully joined Mo's gang in a previous chapter. In China, the leader of a gang is usually called " da ge," which is literally translated into "biggest/eldest brother." -ge itself is also a suffix. So that's why Tian calls Mo "Mo-ge."

    Yes! It's a suffix to address a man of elder age to indicate respect, but in a gang's context, it is used for the higher-ups irrespective of age.

    Ah Chinese people use -ge to address their lovers, sometimes irrespective of age too.
