"Life or death? What do you mean?" Cheng Liang's expression changed slightly.
"The investigation back then concluded that my father was dead, but no one actually saw him die," Ye Xingchen said calmly. "So it was premature to draw conclusions about this matter."
"I'm going there this time to find out the truth about that matter. If you go, I'll have to take care of you, wouldn't that just cause trouble?"
"Old Zhou, is this true?" Cheng Liang was both surprised and delighted, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart.
“There are some files you can’t access.” Zhou Fuwen glanced at him and said, “The investigation results of what happened back then were indeed somewhat hasty.”
"When Xiao Ye goes there this time, he will also take the opportunity to thoroughly investigate the matter."
"And what he said is right. You're not strong enough. Going there will only cause you more trouble, so you'd better be careful."
"Alright then." Cheng Liang said helplessly, admitting that his own skills were indeed lacking.
Moreover, to put it bluntly, he couldn't interfere in the duels between experts at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, so all he could do in the past was cause trouble.
"Uncle Cheng, take good care of these newcomers," Ye Xingchen said. "I think there are a few with exceptional talent among them. With proper training, they could become formidable weapons."
"Can you give me a training plan?" Cheng Liang's eyes lit up.
He knew Ye Xingchen's strength, and since he said that there were people with good aptitude among this group, he must be right.
If Ye Xingchen could step in and discipline them, that would be an incredible blessing for those brats, one they could never hope to receive in three lifetimes.
"That's no problem, but I think these troublemakers need to be taught a lesson." Ye Xingchen grinned.
“No problem. Give me another half month, and no matter how troublesome they are, they’ll behave themselves.” Cheng Liang laughed heartily.
"Alright, when I get back, I'll give you a new training system. I guarantee these guys will be screaming with excitement then," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"Alright, I'll wait for you." Cheng Liang nodded heavily: "I'll be waiting for your triumphant return."
He was originally determined to go to Jinluo City, but after talking with Ye Xingchen, he felt that his trip would be unnecessary.
Not only would I not be able to help, but I'd also likely cause more trouble. After thinking it over, I decided it was better to stay in Yanjing.
After leaving the base, Ye Xingchen arrived at Yuansheng Group. Xia Hanyue poured him a cup of coffee and then sat down opposite him.
"Are you in such a hurry to leave?" Xia Hanyue asked. "Aren't you going to attend my wedding?"
"You're getting married?" Ye Xingchen was taken aback. "When?"
"At the beginning of next month, there are some things that need to be dealt with decisively." Xia Hanyue smiled slightly, ignoring Ye Xingchen's surprised gaze: "Or, should I wait for you to come back?"
"No... We've been looking forward to you getting married for so long, so please get married as soon as possible. Please don't let anything go wrong." Ye Xingchen said, both amused and exasperated.
"What do you mean?" Xia Hanyue glared angrily at Ye Xingchen. "Am I the kind of old maid who can't get married?"
"That's not what I meant," Ye Xingchen said helplessly. "Congratulations on finding the person you want to marry."
"I've wanted to get married for a long time." Xia Hanyue snorted, "I just didn't understand it before, but now I do."
"It's good that you've figured it out. Otherwise, my dad wouldn't be at peace in the afterlife. He doesn't want to ruin your life," Ye Xingchen said.
"Yes, to put his mind at ease, I'll get married as soon as possible." Xia Hanyue sighed softly, fiddling with the teacup in her hand. "Have you decided to leave?"
"I'm leaving now, saying goodbye." Ye Xingchen nodded slightly.
"Be careful. Promise me that if you really can't solve it right away, come back quickly." Xia Hanyue was a little worried and reluctant to let him go.
"Yes, I will. It will be within three months. No matter what the outcome is, I will come back," Ye Xingchen said.
“Alright, three months is just right.” Xia Hanyue breathed a sigh of relief and then said, “Let’s go see the Tang family. They have a wide network of connections. Xuan County is located in the southwest and passes through places like Yuncheng in Yunnan. They have people there.”
"Okay." Ye Xingchen nodded.
In the afternoon, he arrived at the Tang family's house.
"Is Mr. Ye leaving?" Old Tang asked.
"Yes, it's time for some things to come to a conclusion." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly and said, "I came to see Elder Tang before I left. I have no connections there, so I would like to ask Elder Tang for a favor."
"These are minor matters. When you arrive in Yuncheng, contact this person." Old Tang took out a business card and handed it to Ye Xingchen.
The business card bore the name: "Zhou Kunsheng".
"Who is this person to Old Tang?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“My grandfather saved his life, and now he manages some of Yun’s businesses and is very prestigious in the area,” Tang Yixue said. “Once you get there, you can ask him to solve any problem.”
"Okay, I understand, thank you, Mr. Tang," Ye Xingchen said.
"No need to thank me. I can't help you with anything big, but I can still help you with some of these small things." Old Tang said, "Yun's southwest is close to the border, and Xuan County is a place with complex and intertwined power dynamics. You must be careful when you go there."
"People from the Tang family may have some business dealings that are somewhat related, but you won't run into them. However, Zhou Kunsheng has quite a few connections over there. If you want to ask about anything, just go directly to him."
"Understood." Ye Xingchen put away the business card.
"Why are you leaving?" Tang Yixue asked as she saw Ye Xingchen off.
"We'll set off tomorrow, first by plane to Kunming, then heading southwest all the way to Xuancheng," Ye Xingchen said.
“Suspended City…” Tang Yixue’s expression was complicated, and there seemed to be a hint of nostalgia on her face.
It was as if there was someone or something in that place that she couldn't bear to part with.
"What's wrong? Is there something you need me to do for you, or something you need me to pass on a message to?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“There is a man.” Sure enough, Tang Yixue raised her head: “If he is still alive, please be sure to ask him if he still remembers Tang Yixue of the Tang family.”
"Okay, what's his name?" Ye Xingchen nodded.
“Wang Jin, but I know that’s not his real name.” Tang Yixue was silent for a moment.
"This person is very important to you, and you can't forget him, right?" Ye Xingchen couldn't help but gossip a bit.
"Yes." Tang Yixue nodded without hesitation.
"Excuse me for asking you something," Ye Xingchen said, rubbing his nose somewhat awkwardly, "Aren't you... a lesbian?"
“Not every lesbian is born attracted to the same sex.” Tang Yixue glared at Ye Xingchen: “Your aunt is like that, and so am I.”
"Oh, I see, my aunt is getting married," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
“If Wang Jin comes back, I’ll get married too.” Tang Yixue glared at him.
