“Wang Zhenhai, the director of the Criminal Investigation Department of Binhai City, entrusted me with the task of arresting the murderer. Since that’s the case, I certainly won’t stand idly by. So, when the mastermind makes a move against Bai Yuling, I will come here to protect her and arrest the person who attacked her,” Ye Feng said.

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Bai Yuling's face immediately lit up with a satisfied smile.

In her opinion, with Ye Feng protecting her older sister Bai Yurou, Bai Yurou would definitely be safe.

But Bai Canghai didn't think so.

He suddenly stood up and shouted, "Mr. Ye, do you mean to use Yu Rou as bait to lure the murderer out?"

"That's what I mean," Night Wind nodded.

"No! Absolutely not! I disagree!" Bai Canghai shook his head repeatedly, his tone very firm.

Ye Feng wasn't angry. He simply said calmly, "Patriarch Bai, are you mistaken? No matter what, the mastermind behind this will target your daughter, Bai Yurou. That's a fact."

"Mr. Ye, can't you take the initiative and arrest the mastermind behind this?" Cheng Lan asked.

"I'd like to, but who knows who's behind this? I'm not omniscient or omnipotent; there are many things in this world I can't do," Ye Feng said bluntly.

Bai Canghai's face was ashen, his brows furrowed.

Cheng Lan, on the other hand, was restless and extremely anxious.

Bai Yurou remained calm; perhaps her courage had been honed through her experience of being kidnapped.

"Mr. Ye, how should I cooperate with you?" Bai Yurou asked.

“You don’t need to do anything. I actually hope you can lower your guard and stay away from home more often. That way, the mastermind or his men will show up sooner,” Ye Feng said.

"I understand," Bai Yurou said after a moment's thought.

"Don't worry, I won't let you get hurt. I'm confident in that," Night Wind said.

Having explained everything that needed to be explained, Ye Feng didn't linger any longer and turned to leave.

After Ye Feng left, Bai Canghai hurriedly said, "Yu Rou, don't be impulsive. Mr. Ye clearly wants to use you as bait to lure the mastermind behind the scenes to attack you. If that really happens, you will inevitably be hurt, and your life may even be in danger!"

“I know, Dad, but Mr. Ye has made it very clear that it’s an undeniable fact that I’m being targeted, and no one can change that. Since that’s the case, we might as well face it calmly,” Bai Yurou said.

"Anyway, I will not agree to you doing that. Mr. Ye said that he wants you to relax and go out more, but he is obviously trying to put you in danger! This is absolutely unacceptable. You are not going anywhere for the time being. Just stay at home obediently, and it is best not to even leave your room!" Bai Canghai said heavily.

"Dad, you're being too cautious. Besides, how am I supposed to go to the bathroom if I don't leave my room?" Bai Yurou said with a wry smile.

"I'll arrange everything, don't worry," Bai Canghai said.

Bai Canghai then took out his phone and sent a message.

A moment later, a young man strode in from outside.

The young man looked to be only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with very sharp eyes, like the edge of a knife.

Moreover, he has some scars on the back of his hands and wrists, which is enough to show that he has been in many battles!

This young man is the Bai family's only martial arts bodyguard, named Chen Feiyu.

"Patriarch, did you need something from me?" Chen Fei asked as soon as he entered.

"Chen Feiyu, Yu Rou might be in danger these next few days. I've received word that she's being targeted by a very dangerous person," Bai Canghai said quickly.

Chen Fei raised an eyebrow: "Is that so?"

“Absolutely true!” Bai Canghai said.

"Don't worry, Patriarch, I will definitely protect Miss Yu Rou. From now on, I will stay by her side every step of the way, and no one will be able to hurt her," Chen Feiyu said solemnly.

Bai Canghai showed a hint of satisfaction, but then said, "That's not enough. I'm afraid you can't handle it by yourself... Chen Feiyu, didn't you say you have two junior brothers? Then find them and have them protect my daughter for a while."

"Well... my two junior brothers are rather laid-back, they might not be willing to do this job," Chen Feiyu said uncertainly.

"Help me contact them and tell them it won't take up too much of their time; their protection period for my daughter won't exceed half a month. As long as they're willing to come, I'll give each of them one million every day!" Bai Canghai said decisively.

If they give you a million a day, that's fifteen million in half a month!

This money came way too easily!

Chen Feiyu laughed and said, "Since you've put it this way, Patriarch, then fine, I'll contact them right away!"

"Thank you," Bai Canghai nodded.

"You're welcome, it's what I should do," Chen Feiyu said politely.

An hour later, Chen Feiyu contacted his two junior brothers. In the evening, Chen Feiyu's two junior brothers arrived in Binhai City and entered the Bai family to protect Bai Yurou with him.

Night Wind knew all of this.

After leaving the Bai family, Ye Feng arrived at a nearby coffee shop and spread his divine sense to cover the entire Bai family compound.

In this way, nothing that happened in the Bai family could escape Ye Feng's eyes!

Bai Canghai brought in more martial artists to protect Bai Yurou, and Ye Feng didn't mind at all; on the contrary, he thought it was quite normal.

After all, Bai Canghai is Bai Yurou's father, and it's perfectly reasonable for a father to do everything in his power to protect his daughter's safety.

However, this makes it uncertain whether the mastermind will attack Bai Yurou again.

However, since the other party has already captured six 26-year-old women for the Ghost Festival, and now only Bai Yurou is left, then the other party should make a move against Bai Yurou soon.

At least this possibility is very high!

At the same time, in the Zhao family's home in Binhai City.

Inside a room deep within the villa, a young woman lay on the bed, coughing repeatedly.

Her face was pale, her lips were completely bloodless, and she looked so weak that it wouldn't be surprising if she were to die any moment later.

Zhao Shao Chen was standing in front of the bed at that moment, while a middle-aged man was sitting on the edge of the bed.

This middle-aged man was Zhao Shao Chen's father, Zhao Wang Long, the head of the Zhao family.

The young woman on the hospital bed is Zhao Wanglong's biological daughter and Zhao Shaochen's younger sister, Zhao Shaojie.

"Dad, am I dying...? I don't want to die, I really don't want to die..."

Zhao Shaojie gripped Zhao Wanglong's wrist tightly with her thin, bony hands, and sobbed as she spoke.

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let you die. Here, drink your medicine first."

Zhao Wanglong patiently fed Zhao Shaojie the medicine, while Zhao Shaochen stood aside, not making a sound as if afraid of disturbing them.
