Mao Tu did not hide anything. Originally, these matters needed to be reported, but there was not enough time. After bringing Sang Yi back, the sentencing was to be carried out, which caused the delay.

Han Zhiruo was slightly taken aback after hearing this.

"You mean, he knows about the existence of the twelve zodiac animals?"

The twelve zodiac officers of the Tianjin Guard rarely go out on missions; most of the time, it is their subordinates who carry out the tasks. Unless absolutely necessary, the twelve zodiac officers are mostly on standby.

The reason for deploying the Rabbit and Sheep this time is because Sang Yi's identity is very special.

Not only was he one of the top ten generals under the Northern Frontier Tiger Commander, but he was also a Transcendent Realm expert.

Although they had learned that Sang Yi's strength had been crippled, they still had to be cautious.

The Tianjin Guards had conducted in-depth investigations into Sang Yi's personality and character.

Sending two of the twelve zodiac animals into action is not only to prevent accidents, but also to ensure the mission can be completed perfectly.

"Yes, I just said my name and he guessed it. I still can't figure it out."

Mao Tu nodded seriously. Even now, it was still shrouded in mystery. Although they were not allowed to investigate Luo Chen's information, they could still learn about the things that were on the surface.

He had a father who built the Luo family business from scratch.

Luo Chen is a carefree, uneducated, and spoiled rich second-generation.

Although Luo Chen has a large circle and is considered a top influencer, allowing him to know a lot of things, he doesn't know everything.

After all, he's just a businessman.

How did the merchant learn about the mysterious organization, the Tianjin Guard?

Even if the Luo family is about to be promoted to a super family, it is only a worldly promotion.

Without entering the martial arts world, there is an even higher circle, making it impossible to know anything about the Tianjin Guard.

However, Luo Chen seemed to know, or at least seemed to understand.

Otherwise, why would Luo Chen be able to guess her identity just by hearing Mao Tu's name?

How can this not be perplexing?

Han Zhiruo remained silent and did not answer.

She was quite surprised after hearing what Mao Tu said, since it was already considered top secret.

Even within the Nationalist government, few officials knew about it.

It is classified as highly confidential.

Even those who know about it must sign a confidentiality agreement after encountering the Tianjin Guard, and are not allowed to disclose it.

This also leads to a situation where those who know are afraid to speak up, and those who don't know remain unaware.

But afterwards.

Han Zhiruo, however, understood.

She's been so busy lately.

They were so busy that they forgot about Luo Chen's magical abilities and the truth or falsehood of this world.

The inner voice, the protagonist, the plot—everything has appeared.

So, isn't it perfectly normal to know about the Tianjin Guard?

After figuring this out, Han Zhiruo smiled helplessly.

She felt like she had done something unnecessary. No matter how carefully she tried to keep it a secret, Luo Chen would find out eventually; it was just a matter of time.

Knowing this, Han Zhiruo didn't intend to get close to Luo Chen like that; instead, she waited for an opportunity.

An opportunity that can be legitimate.

Now that I've become the deputy head of the Yan Province branch, I know far more than before.

Martial artists, once a common sight, are now commonplace and leave no trace.

What we are doing now is nothing compared to what we did before.

There is absolutely no comparison.

Because I know so much, I've become more cautious.

Therefore, she and Luo Chen still cannot meet quickly and can only wait for an opportunity.

Han Zhiruo didn't want to involve Luo Chen in anything and disrupt his original life.

Han Zhiruo didn't explain the details to Mao Tu. After Mao Tu left, Han Zhiruo made a phone call to contact Ling Qingyi.

First of all, I would like to thank Ling Qingyi for providing this video, and I also secretly admire the many talented people under her command.

In the secular world, if Ling Qingyi had bigger ambitions, the Ling family's power might have become even greater.

That size was too vast for Ningcheng alone to contain.

The underground world is a mixed bag, with layers upon layers of relationships, but ultimately everything is done in the shadows and can never be brought into the open.

It's not difficult for anyone to carve out a niche in this field.

After all, those who are truly beyond this level wouldn't even look at her, and at most they would use her when needed. But those who would want her might not be able to match Ling Qingyi in terms of power.

But Ling Qingyi didn't have such thoughts, and Han Zhiruo would never induce the other party to have such thoughts.

After a while, although I felt a little sympathy for Sang Yi's plight, the fact that Sang Yi had done something that harmed others for his own benefit completely negated my feelings.

Skipping over this topic, Han Zhiruo didn't say much after learning that Ling Qingyi was leaving Yan Province.

As the current head of the Ling family, there are still many things that Ling Qingyi needs to handle.

Han Zhiruo knew why she had come to Yan Province.

However, judging from Ling Qingyi's words, it seems that she did not tell Luo Chen about her departure.

This puzzled Han Zhiruo somewhat.

Ling Qingyi felt that this was nothing; it was just going back to Ningcheng, not like they would never see each other again, so whether she said anything or not didn't matter much.

Moreover, this is a minor matter, and there's no need to make it public knowledge.

At most, they'll just give a brief notification.

Moreover, for Luo Chen... he wouldn't consider it a big deal.

after all……

[...]

Ling Qingyi's residence.

"Miss, aren't you really going to talk to Young Master Luo about it?"

Uncle Xu couldn't help but mention it again. After all, they were leaving Yan Province tomorrow. Leaving so quietly now, just like they came quietly in the first place, was very much in line with his young lady's personality, but it still didn't feel right.

After all, Young Master Luo knew about this and wouldn't take it lightly.

Ling Qingyi shook her head slightly: "There's no need, it's just a small matter."

It was indeed a small matter, but to them it seemed like a big deal.

I can't figure it out.

After the last incident, Ling Qingyi stopped contacting Luo Chen. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but rather that she felt something was missing.

She can't be like other people, able to search for someone anytime, anywhere, whenever she misses them.

This is not in line with her personality, nor is it something she's used to.

This has been the case since I was a child, and it won't change.

Uncle Xu's attempts to persuade him failed, so he had no choice but to leave, since continuing to talk to him would only lead to the same result.

Knowing his young mistress's personality all too well, Uncle Xu chose not to continue.

On the day of departure, Luo Chen still did not appear.

Uncle Xu was in charge of carrying the luggage and putting it into the trunk.

Ling Qingyi stood quietly by the roadside for a while, casually looking around.

A gentle breeze caresses the willows, and a beautiful woman appears as if in a painting.

The breeze couldn't take away her elegance, but it did take away a trace of expectation and a faint sense of loss.

Even after boarding the bus, which was moving slowly, he still couldn't see her...
