That's right.

The reason why Guan Shanyue stopped just now was because he discovered Bai Peng's existence.

To be precise, among all the people present, he was the only one who realized that Bai Peng was nearby.

Bai Peng's arrival reminded Guan Shanyue of their previous conversation.

Now it is getting closer and closer to Peace Day.

The situation in the district has become unmanageable.

Guan Shanyue knew that no matter how much he wanted to oppose it, it would be difficult to change it on his own.

If I really attacked Ning Fan now, I might feel relieved, but...

It will make the F region more difficult.

Even District F may be completely removed from the downtown area.

Besides, Guan Shanyue didn't come to Yecheng this time to raise an army and demand punishment.

Just by meeting each other, I couldn't suppress my anger anymore.

Bai Peng's appearance helped him calm down.

"At such a critical moment, you actually abandoned the regional city guards and came here?"

Guan Shanyue was too lazy to expose Bai Peng.

Bai Peng slapped Wen Xiuyuan on the back.

"My buddy's daughter is getting married, I have to come and share in the joy!"

"Okay, stop standing here."

Wen Xiuyuan took over the conversation and immediately invited the person into Yecheng.

Wen Xiuyuan lowered his voice only when Ning Fan passed by.

"Is it not difficult for you?"

"Luckily, Uncle Bai went there in time, otherwise... it's hard to say."

Ning Fan gave Bai Peng a grateful look: "Thank you for the trip, Uncle Bai."

With Ning Fan's intelligence, how could he not understand the conversation just now?

Bai Peng waved his hand carelessly: "I ate your food and drank your wine, so I can't do anything without exerting any effort!"

To be honest, Ning Fan didn't realize how good the relationship between Wen Xiuyuan and Xia Qing was.

However, the relationship between Bai Peng and Wen Xiuyuan can definitely be called the "iron" in the iron triangle.

"By the way, Xiao Huizi."

Bai Peng suddenly looked at Huizi who was driving.

Huizi's mouth twitched.

"Commander Bai, can you remove the word 'Xiao'?"

"What's the matter? Why are you so sensitive to this word?"

Bai Peng muttered, "Don't you have a wife? This shouldn't happen..."

Huizi's face turned red.

But Bai Peng's next words broke his defense.

"I was drunk earlier. This morning I heard my brother Da Ben tell me that you wanted to recognize me as your godfather?"

…

After everyone arrived, Ning Fan did not arrange a dinner.

Guan Shanyue said that he had been traveling for two days and was a little tired.

Lu Yiming wanted to reunite with Lu Li and Lu Yuan, brother and sister.

At the same time, Ning Fan also had some things he wanted to discuss with Wen Xiuyuan.

In Ning Fan's residence in Yecheng, Wen Xiuyuan sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, which was a rare occurrence.

He had just talked to Ning Fan about He Ziqing.

Both of them knew that He Ziqing's life was about to come to an end.

Wen Xiuyuan also decided that he would take over He Ziqing and complete his unfinished research.

This is definitely good news for Ning Fan.

If there is anyone who is qualified to replace He Ziqing's role in Yecheng, that person must be Wen Xiuyuan.

However, Ning Fan couldn't be happy.

Humans are not plants or trees.

Although He Ziqing has a bad temper, the old man's help to Ning Fan is real.

If he had a choice, Ning Fan would rather live a more comfortable life in his last days.

But Wen Xiuyuan could understand He Ziqing's choice.

In this old man's mind, not doing research would be a waste of his last life.

The two were prepared for He Ziqing to leave at any time.

After talking about He Ziqing, the two adjusted their mood and turned the topic to Lu Yiming who appeared today.

Wen Xiuyuan knew that Lu Yiming and Xia Qing were acting.

He had also told Ning Fan before that Lu Yiming was not dead.

However, Wen Xiuyuan didn't know why Lu Yiming suddenly appeared here.

And from what Ning Fan said, Lu Yiming seemed to be interested in easing the relationship between Guan Shanyue and Ning Fan.

In fact, Wen Xiuyuan and Lu Yiming are not familiar with each other.

He only knew that Lu Yiming was the chief of staff and had been assisting Xia Qing.

Lu Yiming is considered to be low-key in the headquarters. He only appears when participating in core meetings, and no one has heard that he is particularly close to anyone in the headquarters.

It was also because of this that not many people became suspicious when the Lu family suddenly suffered misfortune.

But Wen Xiuyuan saw the problem.

Not long after Xia Qing took office, he promoted Lu Yiming to the position of chief of staff.

Others may not understand, but Wen Xiuyuan knows that this is Xia Qing's way of expressing "trust".

I will promote you because I trust you.

Wen Xiuyuan and Bai Peng were easy to deal with. After all, the three of them grew up together, so it was normal for Xia Qingwei to have power.

But Lu Yiming...

Wen Xiuyuan asked Bai Peng, and Bai Peng said that he had never heard of this person before.

Therefore, not only Ning Fan, but even Wen Xiuyuan felt that Lu Yiming was very mysterious.

He only just found out now that Lu Yiming and Guan Shanyue also had a friendship.

"Uncle, do you think Lu Yiming is still Xia Qing's man?"

Ning Fan asked directly.

In front of Wen Xiuyuan, he didn't need to beat around the bush.

After hearing this, Wen Xiuyuan fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he nodded and said, "It should be related."

"Uncle, Xia Qing promised me that he would give me a Thousand Souls-level warrior to take charge. Do you know who this person is?"
