Meanwhile, Qin Shengyi, who was in Chengdu, suddenly felt a strong sense of unease, so much so that he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

She wanted to call Yan Shu to ask, but seeing that it was already 11 p.m., she hesitated and then called Jiang Zhengyu instead.

"Brother, how's Yan Shu doing lately? Has anything happened to him?"

Besides avoiding disturbing the other person's rest, it was also because she knew that Brother Yan Shu might only report good news and not bad news, and even if there was a real situation, he might choose to keep it from her.

"Qin Shengyi! Don't you even look at the time? Is it appropriate for you to call me this late to ask this?"

It does seem a bit inappropriate.

Qin Shengyi was inevitably a little unsure of himself, so he explained in a low voice, "I... I just suddenly felt very uneasy. I'll be more careful next time."

She knew perfectly well how dangerous Yan Shuge's current situation was, and if she hadn't been forced to leave Kyoto at this time, she wouldn't have done so.

The girl's suddenly softened tone instantly extinguished Jiang Zhengyu's anger. He subconsciously moved his lips, but ultimately didn't say anything more.

If we were to tell Shengyi the whole truth, she might not be able to resist returning to Kyoto, and the situation could become even more chaotic.

"Didn't I say before that I would notify you immediately if anything happened?"

"Since I haven't called you, it means there's nothing wrong, so don't overthink it and make yourself upset."

Is that so...?

Seeing that the other person spoke with such certainty, Qin Shengyi didn't press for more information. The two said goodnight to each other and then hung up the phone.

Looking out at the moonlight, her unease was not alleviated by the phone call.

Shengyi couldn't help but sigh, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. She wanted to go back to the capital for a visit, but she was afraid that such a presumptuous decision would only cause trouble for her brother Yanshu...

——

The following morning, Huang Dongsheng returned to Kyoto.

"Don't worry, I've already sent someone to check the place you mentioned, and I believe we'll have news soon."

Xu Yanshu nodded knowingly, then belatedly realized that he had acted too eagerly, and a look of unease flashed across his face.

Seeing this, Huang Dongsheng laughed heartily and waved his hand dismissively, "It's alright, it's alright. I understand how you feel right now. Nobody likes to be constantly overshadowed by others."

"Speaking of which, Xie Junyang is really bold, daring to touch even these things. If we really catch him with solid evidence, he'll have to spend a few years in jail."

Although Xie Junyang was not a threat to him, he was no longer willing to tolerate the man's growing cunning.

He still had doubts about the kidnapping incident back then, but this old scoundrel wanted to harm Xu Yanshu behind his back.

Huang Dongsheng nodded thoughtfully. If he remained unmoved, Xie Junyang would probably start to disregard him more and more.

Just when he was wondering how to get Xie Junyang to behave, Yan Shu made this discovery, which was like a godsend.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yanshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and sat down in an empty seat, placing his hands on his knees. A hint of tension, barely perceptible, appeared on his handsome, angular face.

They missed their target last time, and now Huang Dongsheng has also entered the fray. Hopefully, they can take this opportunity to bring Xie Junyang down.

The two of them looked at each other in silence for a moment.

While waiting, a hint of unspeakable hatred flashed in Xu Yanshu's deep eyes, and he was filled with mixed feelings.

Previously, he had thought of dealing with that old fox because he knew that Xie Junyang would not let him off easily, and he wanted to protect himself.

Ever since he learned that his father's death in the car accident was also Xie Junyang's scheme, he has been trying to kill Xie Junyang at every turn.

About twenty minutes later, the cell phone that Huang Dongsheng had placed on the table suddenly rang, and Xu Yanshu's breathing became tense.

The matter was of great importance, and Huang Dongsheng's expression inevitably became somewhat solemn. After swiping to answer the call, he specifically turned on the speakerphone, "Hello, how is it?"

"The information you provided is indeed correct. A lot of contraband items were indeed found here, including some weapons."

"We have already arranged for people to go to the Xie family to make the arrest, and we will report this matter to our superiors immediately."

They even have weapons!

A flicker of surprise flashed across Huang Dongsheng's eyes. He was secretly alarmed, realizing just how bold and ambitious Xie Junyang was. After a moment's thought, he couldn't help but feel grateful for his decisiveness that day.

If you keep giving benefits to people like that, that's fine, but otherwise, you never know when they might turn around and bite you.

"Okay, okay, I understand. Thank you all for your hard work." Huang Dongsheng replied politely before hanging up the phone.

Very good.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Xu Yanshu's eyes unexpectedly reddened. He stood up and bowed solemnly to Xie Junyang, "Uncle Huang, thank you!"

"Yan Shu, you're too kind. We're all on the same side," Huang Dongsheng said meaningfully, extending his hand to pull the man up. "How dare Xie Junyang hoard weapons? He won't be able to escape this time!"

Xu Yanshu nodded in deep agreement. He thought it was just some illegal machinery, but he never expected that there would be weapons involved.

It seems Xie Junyang is definitely going to jail, and the thought of it brought him a long-lost sense of relief.

"I will have someone continue to monitor the follow-up of this matter. As far as I know, Xie Junyang has a lot of connections. It's a rare opportunity like this, so we absolutely cannot let it go lightly!"
