After making the arrangements, they led their respective teams to carry out the mission.
Gu Jinghe led Ruan Shaolin to the back gate of the Xu family. The two looked up at the courtyard wall at the same time. Ruan Shaolin took a few steps back, while Gu Jinghe stood at the corner of the wall, in a lunge position with his hands crossed and palms facing up. Then, Ruan Shaolin took a running start and stepped on Gu Jinghe's palm. Gu Jinghe lifted him up, and Ruan Shaolin easily hooked onto the top of the wall. With a stylish flip, he jumped down from the nearly three-meter-high wall.
As soon as Ruan Shaolin climbed over the wall, he opened the door and let Gu Jinghe and the others in first.
Then they quickly and quietly tied up all the Xu family members, including the servants, who were still asleep.
By the time Xu Youwei, Xu Youcai, and their juniors realized something was wrong, it was too late. The soldiers rushed into the room and tied them up without giving them any chance to resist.
When the Xu family members were all tied up and brought to the living room, everyone else was awake, but Xu Zhaohui and Luo Yufeng were the only two who remained asleep the entire time from when the soldiers entered the room until they were tied up and brought out, showing no reaction whatsoever.
At this moment, the soldiers placed them on Xu Youwei and Xu Youcai, their two sons, so that they could fulfill their filial duties.
Seeing Xu Zhaohui and Luo Yufeng's appearance.
Ruan Shaolin looked them over from left to right and said, "It seems the rumors are true!" After the elderly from the Xu and Zhao families were hospitalized, there were rumors that the younger generation of the Xu and Zhao families were too incompetent and had made their parents sick from overwork. At first, they didn't quite believe it, but later some people found that since being discharged from the hospital, the elderly from these two families had basically stopped going out.
Before this, they often went out together, and would stay out for quite some time.
"What are you doing? This is the Xu family home." Xu Youwei, still unaware of the situation, looked at the soldiers who had suddenly rushed into their house. He recognized the leader; it was Ruan Shaolin, the youngest son of the Ruan family.
"We knew it was the Xu family. We wouldn't have come if it weren't the Xu family. Do you think you're still the high and mighty Master Xu? What a joke! Even at a time like this, you still say such things to us. It seems the outside world's assessment of you is quite accurate!" The Xu and Zhao families have always been at odds with the Ruan and Gu families, and the younger generations of these families have always been irreconcilable enemies.
Back in their school days, Xu Zhen, Ruan Shaohong, and Ruan Shaoke were all around the same age, so they were often compared. They compared their grades in school, and later, they compared their jobs. Initially, the Xu family thought that the Ruan family would let Ruan Shaohong pursue a political career, but Ruan Shaohong enlisted in the army on his own right after graduating from high school.
The following year, they believed that Ruan Shaoke would pursue a political career. After all, Ruan Shaoke was recognized by them as a gentle and refined gentleman. Even though he usually gave people a cold and aloof feeling, it was still not enough to display his face, which was more beautiful than a woman's. Such a handsome young man would be out of place in a group of grown men like the army!
Not only them, but even the old men of the Ruan and Su families thought so. Old Master Su once tried to persuade Ruan Shaoke to study medicine with him, but to their surprise, Ruan Shaoke followed his older brother's example. The day after he received his graduation certificate, he left a letter at home, packed his bag, and quietly left. Later, after Ruan Shaoke passed the Air Force's trials and officially became an Air Force officer, he finally made a phone call home.
After them, Xu Xuan, the youngest son of the Xu family, was born in the same year as Ruan Shaolin. Perhaps influenced by his older brothers, Ruan Shaolin was spoiled by his family from a young age, which fostered his unruly nature. So, when he was at school, he would beat Xu Xuan up at the slightest disagreement. At first, the Xu family would come to their door to demand an explanation, but each time Old Master Ruan would say, "Let the children handle their own affairs. Do you expect the elders to come out and help if the younger ones can't win?" Xu Zhaohui was always stumped by Old Master Ruan's question.
Xu Xuan had never been able to beat Old Man Ruan, then his son couldn't beat Ruan Chuanji, and finally, none of his grandsons could compare to the Ruan family's young master. This infuriated Xu Zhaohui so much that he smashed three vases at home. He also declared, "Fight if you can beat them, don't provoke them if you can't." So after that, Xu Xuan would avoid Ruan Shaolin whenever he saw him.
"Ruan Shaolin, you're a soldier now, how could you break into someone's house in the middle of the night?!" Xu Xuan hadn't seen Ruan Shaolin for several years. After graduation, Ruan Shaolin followed in his brothers' footsteps and joined the army.
When the Xu family learned that Ruan Shaolin had also joined the army, they also considered having Xu Xuan join the army. However, after seeing that Xu Xuan was unable to carry anything, the whole family gave up.
“Yeah, you know I’m a soldier now. So do you know what it means when a soldier leads a team into someone’s house? Hmm!” Ruan Shaolin looked at his former defeated opponent and felt a surge of pleasure as he was defeated by him again. Even AK couldn’t suppress the good mood on his face.
Upon hearing Ruan Shaolin's words, the Xu family members' anger vanished.
At this point, they realized that what they had done had been discovered by their superiors, who not only knew but also found evidence; otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such lengths to arrest them.
Seeing their ashen faces, Ruan Shaolin and Gu Jinghe felt a sense of satisfaction. However, it was a pity that the two people who had done wrong were still lying on their son and knew nothing.
It's a real shame we didn't get to see their terrified faces after their scheme was exposed.
After a brief chat with the Xu family, a few soldiers were left to keep an eye on them, while the rest ransacked the Xu family's house.
