Harold knew even more that Xie Zhenni had always admired Nan Xiangwan.
It was by following this line of investigation that he was able to uncover some unknown things and learn that the Xie family, while appearing low-key, were actually doing things for the Happiness Community.
Harold didn't even tell Ruska; he just silently vented his anger on his own.
Rusca would never help him.
Rusca knew the situation better than anyone else.
"Harold, I'm warning you, if you really want to be caught by the people at the Shui Mu Building and handed over to Long Yehua, then go ahead and make a scene here!"
After saying that, Rusca left without looking back.
If Harold hadn't done some things for him, Rusca would never have taken him in. Calling them partners is a stretch; they're not brothers at all. Harold isn't even worth a hair on his head.
He was willing to take care of Harold because of Harold, who would be of great use later.
Hahahaha!
A chilling, terrifying laugh emanated from inside the room, sending shivers down the spines of the guards outside.
However, no one came forward to dissuade them.
...
Throughout the journey, Shangguan Yu answered Ye Chaonan's questions.
Ye Chaonan asked many questions, and Shangguan Yu patiently explained them to him. Following behind were Nangong Chen and Ye Chaoqun, who were much more at ease.
Ye Chaoqun said, "Do you think Xiang Wan and the others have a chance to capture Lei Zhanming?"
"Chaoqun, don't worry about it. Leave these things to us. You just need to go back to the Ye family, wash up and go to bed. You can attend the banquet first thing tomorrow morning."
"But Nangong..."
"Chaoqun, I know you want to worry about these things, but some things are not something we can worry about just because we want to. Besides, everyone has their own expertise, and this is not something we should be doing."
After hearing Nangong Chen's words, Ye Chaoqun didn't ask any more questions. He also knew very well how to handle this matter.
However, even if Ye Chaoqun didn't ask others, he might still know the reason.
Ye Chaonan was only putting on a brave face; he was actually quite nervous being surrounded by such a group of people. Although he had learned some basic kung fu, it was far from enough to defend himself.
Just like at the hot springs before, if it happened again, Ye Chaonan wasn't confident that he could escape with Ye Chaoqun.
To put it bluntly, he's just too weak!
Ye Chaonan's entire demeanor, including his eyes, changed, and Shangguan Yu could sense this change.
"Don't overthink it. Just focus on what you need to learn. Now is not the time for you to be thinking about things."
Ye Chaonan was stunned when he heard Shangguan Yu's words.
As expected, Shangguan Yu understood him best, and ever since he pestered Shangguan Yu to learn fire-based abilities, Shangguan Yu had become much more patient with him.
"I know, Brother Shangguan."
"Actually, our Ye family has always welcomed Brother Shangguan. We hope that Brother Shangguan will do us the honor of attending tomorrow's banquet and have a good meal at our Ye family's place."
Ye Chaonan added, fearing that Shangguan Yu might not agree: "My grandfather also really wants to meet Brother Shangguan. Although he has already thanked him for the hot spring incident before, this time is different."
Shangguan Yu really wanted to beat him up.
Even Zhan Siyu couldn't force him to attend some so-called parties he didn't want to attend.
Ye Chaonan looked at him pitifully and knew that even if he refused now, Shangguan Yu would not give up, so he could only nod in agreement.
Originally, Shangguan Yu intended to protect Ye Chaonan and Ye Chaoqun until Lei Zhanming was captured; otherwise, the Ye family would continue to be the target of public criticism.
Nothing happened along the way, and they returned to the Ye family home.
When Grandpa Ye learned that they had returned, he came out immediately and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were alright.
After all, Nan Xiangwan had just called him to explain the situation, and tomorrow's banquet needed to be arranged properly, with his own people arranged in layers upon layers.
"It's good to be back. Hurry up and eat something." Old Master Ye quickly had someone bring some food.
Nangong Chen brought up the chess score.
"Grandpa, I came across a chess manual by chance, and it reminded me that you also like to play chess, so I wanted to use it to present to you."
Nangong Chen spoke frankly and openly, so Old Master Ye couldn't say anything. After all, this was the grandson-in-law he had chosen, and he quickly took down the chess score.
He really enjoys playing chess.
However, he couldn't solve some particularly difficult chess games, and occasionally he could only relieve his boredom by playing chess with other elders in his family who were close to him.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Chen gave him a chess manual, and the manual looked quite old. Old Master Ye was obviously very happy.
After Shangguan Yu came over and said a few words to Old Master Ye, Old Master Ye's expression changed drastically.
However, he quickly calmed down.
"Thank you for doing this for Chaonan and Chaoqun. We also thank Xiangwan for going to such lengths for them. I will not treat you unfairly."
"You're too kind, sir. It's what we should do. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now and come back tomorrow."
After Shangguan Yu and others nodded, they quickly left. Ye Chaonan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Old Master Ye.
"You guys go eat first."
"Let's talk after we eat. There's still a lot to prepare for tomorrow."
Mr. and Mrs. Ye also came out. They had been busy preparing for a whole week, and it wouldn't be good to postpone the banquet again.
In short, no matter what, Ye's parents held this banquet to demonstrate their strength, especially since everyone knows about Nangong Chen and Ye Chaoqun's affair.
The next likely event is the marriage of Nangong Chen and Ye Chaoqun.
It's impossible for the people from Xingfu Community not to attend; Nan Xiangwan and Zhan Siyu are very likely to come in person.
Mother Ye said, "Chao Nan, come here for a moment, I have something to ask you."
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"I wanted to ask if Xiang Wan has any dietary restrictions?"
"No need? My sister and I brought back all the things that Sister Xiangwan gave us. There's a whole car full of fresh ingredients outside, and we can use them all tomorrow!"
Mother Ye was overjoyed to hear this.
They could have taken some ingredients from the warehouse, but some of them were stored away and not very fresh. They would be fine for their own consumption, but they would be a bit lacking in quality for entertaining guests.
To his surprise, Nan Xiangwan brought over fresh ingredients, which greatly pleased him.
"Then I really have to thank Xiang Wan. Chaoqun, take out my ruby necklace and polish it properly. I need to use it tomorrow."
"Okay, Mom."
Ye Chaoqun knew that his mother wanted to give the ruby necklace to Nan Xiangwan.
