"Don't worry, your parents treat me very well, they won't do anything to me!"
As he spoke, Ling Feng had already tied the rope around Shangguan Yanran's waist and made a knot.
"Alright, stop talking, I'll put you down!"
After Ling Feng finished speaking, he turned around, opened the window, bent down, hugged Shangguan Yanran's legs, and helped her up.
At this moment, Shangguan Yanran felt a mix of emotions. She never expected Ling Feng to be so kind to her.
However, her heart was entirely devoted to Ye Tianyu, and she only felt touched by Ling Feng, without any romantic feelings for him.
"Thank you!"
Shangguan Yanran murmured a word of thanks, then climbed out of the window.
Ling Feng gripped the rope tightly and slowly lowered her down.
With his help, Shangguan Yanran landed safely.
"Ling Feng, I'm sorry, I let you down!"
Shangguan Yanran looked up, waved at him, and turned to leave...
The next morning, Ye Tianyu had breakfast with the Fang family.
The Fang couple's attitude towards Ye Tianyu has improved a lot compared to before, as if they have already accepted Ye Tianyu as their future son-in-law.
Grandpa Fang's lips curled into a smile from time to time, and he looked at Ye Tianyu and Fang Xueqing with a strange expression, as if he knew perfectly well that Ye Tianyu had sneaked into Fang Xueqing's room last night.
Ye Tianyu pretended not to see it and ate his food in silence with his head down.
After breakfast, Ye Tianyu and Fang Xueqing drove back to the city together.
Fang Xueqing went to the Fang Group alone.
Ye Tianyu then headed to the Appreciation Hall.
"Sky Tiger, any news about Li Min'er?"
As soon as Ye Tianyu entered the room, he immediately asked Qingtianhu a question.
"Master, not yet!"
Optimus Prime confidently said, "However, I believe we will have news soon."
"Um!"
"I hope it happens as soon as possible!"
Ye Tianyu continued, "We need to find another person, Su Beizhou. He might be in Jiangnan too. Send a few more people out to find him as soon as possible!"
"Okay, no problem!"
Optimus Prime said sternly, "As long as he is in Jiangnan, no matter where he is hiding, I will be able to find him."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and made a call, instructing them to spare no expense in finding out the whereabouts of Subei Prefecture.
There's no progress on this matter for now, so we can focus on dealing with Liu Qingyao and the four major families first.
Ye Tianyu immediately ordered Qingtianhu to gather a dozen or so of his men and follow him to the Shangguan family villa.
Meanwhile, on the other side, at the Shangguan family villa.
Shangguan Wenhai's face was even uglier than if he had eaten shit, and he was blaming Ling Feng for letting Shangguan Yanran go.
"Young Master Ling, you're really confused. Last night I arranged for Yanran to share a room with you so I could hand her over to you, but you actually let her go!"
"Do you know that Liu Qingyao and the three major families are searching for her everywhere?"
"If Qingyao falls into their hands, do you know what the consequences will be?"
After being reprimanded by Shangguan Wenhai, Ling Feng gave a wry smile.
"Patriarch Shangguan, Yanran doesn't like me. What's the use of having her body if I can't have her heart?"
“It was wrong of me to let her go last night. You can punish me however you want, I will have no complaints.”
"As for Yanran outside, I believe in her vigilance and she won't be so easily discovered by Liu Qingyao and the others."
"Foolish. You may have her body, but you won't have her heart yet. However, once you bring her back to Jinbei, as long as you treat her well, she will slowly be melted by you. Do you understand?"
After reprimanding him, Shangguan Wenhai was about to order his steward, Shangguan Feng, to lead men out to find Shangguan Yanran again.
At this moment, the nanny, Chen Ma, hurriedly walked in.
"Master, the three great families are here again!"
"Um?"
These three persistent old men are always bothering me; they're really annoying.
He then instructed everyone not to mention Guan Yanran's return last night.
Then he waved for Zhao Jinlan and Ling Feng to go upstairs to avoid the situation.
As soon as the heads of the three major families entered, they immediately inquired whether they had found any news about Shangguan Yanran.
Shangguan Wenhai was extremely annoyed with the three of them at this moment, and said indifferently.
"If I had any news about her, I would have informed you already!"
"But don't you get tired of bringing this up every day?"
"I think the most important thing is to properly discuss how to deal with Ye Tianyu and Fang Xueqing, right?"
"Hehe! Brother Shangguan, Shangguan Yanran is your daughter. We talk about her every day. You must be getting bored!"
Chen Yibiao said sarcastically, "Dealing with Ye Tianyu and Fang Xueqing is certainly important."
"However, Liu Qingyao said yesterday that someone is currently targeting Fang Xueqing, so we should focus on dealing with Ye Tianyu."
"But your daughter is so close to him, and she has ruined our plans many times. How can we feel at ease if we don't find her?"
"Well……"
Shangguan Wenhai's face turned pale and then red.
Chen Yibiao was clearly making fun of him on purpose.
What could he possibly say back? It's all because Shangguan Yanran is such a handful.
When one is feeling agitated.
"Da da da!"
Just then, a series of chaotic footsteps sounded.
Ye Tianyu and Qingtianhu walked in with more than ten burly men.
The atmosphere in the room immediately became tense.
Chen Yibiao, Yin Liehuo, and Yuwen Shan's expressions changed drastically.
Shangguan Wenhai's pupils dilated, and he blurted out.
"Ye Tianyu..."
He then said in a deep voice, "What are you doing barging into my house with so many people?"
Ye Tianyu ignored him and glanced around, not seeing Liu Qingyao there.
She didn't come today, looks like I'll have to make another trip.
He then turned his gaze to Shangguan Wenhai's face and said coldly.
“You have repeatedly provoked me and challenged my bottom line.”
“A few days ago, they actually sent so many people to ambush and kill me at the foot of Tianbao Mountain.”
"I've had enough. I'm here today to settle things with you!"
Upon hearing this, the heads of the four major families immediately tensed up, sensing that Ye Tianyu's visit was not well-intentioned.
Shangguan Wenhai, the owner of the villa, glared and said in a sinister tone.
"Ye Tianyu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"What evidence do you have to prove that those who surrounded and killed you were sent by us?"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Suddenly, Optimus Prime rushed forward and slapped him hard across the face.
"My fists are the proof."
"You old bastards, not only did you send men to ambush and kill my master that day, but you also tricked me into going out, almost killing me!"
"I've come here today specifically to settle accounts with you."
Shangguan Wenhai's head was buzzing and he saw stars from the slap.
He covered his burning face, stunned.
This is the first time the head of the prestigious Shangguan family, one of the four great families of China, has been slapped.
It could be said that it was not very harmful, but extremely insulting.
"Optimus Prime, how dare you hit me?"
He roared, "Don't think that just because you're the king of the Jiangnan underworld, I'll be afraid of you!"
"Heh! Aren't you afraid?"
Optimus Prime sneered, "Fine, then I'll beat you until you're scared!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his right hand to slap again...
