Sheng Hongye smiled: "Look, isn't this a coincidence?"

A hint of doubt flashed across Sheng Yunrong's eyes, then the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she responded, "Yes, what a coincidence." She lowered her head slightly, her fingers unconsciously fiddling with the teacup on the table, but her eyes secretly glanced at her brother.

Sheng Hongye saw his sister's little thoughts and couldn't help but smile more. He picked up the teacup, blew gently on the floating tea leaves, and then slowly said: "Yunrong, you seem to be worried recently. Is there anything you can't tell me directly?"

Sheng Yunrong's face turned slightly red. She put down the teacup and looked up at her brother with a hint of help in her eyes: "Brother, I...I had a dream recently."

"Oh? What dream?" Sheng Hongye's interest was aroused. He put down the teacup and leaned forward slightly.

"I dreamed that our Sheng Mansion was engulfed in a huge fire and the entire mansion was reduced to ashes." Sheng Yunrong said in a heavy tone, with a hint of fear in her eyes.

Sheng Hongye frowned slightly, he reached out his hand and gently patted his sister's shoulder: "Yunrong, dreams are often illusory, don't worry too much. But why do you care so much about this dream?"

Sheng Yunrong bit her lower lip, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes: "Because... because I saw a man in my dream. He was wearing black clothes and a mask on his face. He gave people a gloomy and terrifying feeling. I think he may be the crisis of our Sheng Mansion."

A trace of seriousness flashed across Sheng Hongye's eyes. He pondered for a moment, then said, "In this case, we must find out the identity of this person. The safety of the Sheng Mansion is of vital importance. We cannot allow any threats to exist."

Sheng Yunrong nodded, but there was still a trace of worry in her eyes. Sheng Hongye saw it and felt helpless.

Sheng Hongye looked at his sister's increasingly thin face, and felt distressed. He decided to take more active actions. He found the secret guards of Sheng Mansion and ordered them to find the mysterious man no matter what.

Late one night, Sheng Hongye and Sheng Yunrong were discussing something in the study. Suddenly, a secret guard rushed in, holding a piece of intelligence in his hand with a serious expression.

"Master, Miss, we have found clues about the mysterious man. He seems to be related to a mysterious organization in the martial arts world. The purpose of this organization is unknown, but its methods are cruel and terrifying."

Sheng Hongye took the information and frowned. He pondered for a moment, then said to Sheng Yunrong: "Yunrong, it seems that this organization does pose a threat to our Sheng Mansion. We must take action, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Sheng Yunrong's eyes flashed with determination: "Brother, I will face this challenge with you. No matter how powerful this organization is, our Sheng family will not surrender easily."

Sheng Hongye nodded, patted his sister's shoulder, his eyes full of trust and encouragement.

Sheng Yunrong pouted slightly, a mischievous light flashed in her eyes, and responded: "Brother, how can this be called a coincidence? It's obvious that you arranged it on purpose."

Sheng Hongye restrained his smile, his eyes revealed a hint of doting, and he shook his head gently: "Sister, you are always so smart, how can I not be on guard? However, this time it is indeed a coincidence."

The back garden of Sheng Mansion is full of spring, with flowers in all colors and fragrance.

"Brother, why are you always so mysterious lately?" Sheng Yunrong asked curiously, her eyes widened as if she wanted to see through Sheng Hongye's thoughts.

Sheng Hongye smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes: "Sister, curiosity kills the cat. If you want to know, just guess it yourself."

Sheng Yunrong pouted in dissatisfaction: "Brother, you are always like this, making people unpredictable. However, I always feel that you are hiding something from me."

Sheng Hongye patted Sheng Yunrong's shoulder gently, and his tone became softer: "Don't worry, sister, I will tell you about my brother's affairs. It's just that now is not the time."

The two continued walking, passing through a bamboo forest, and came to the lake. The lake was sparkling, reflecting the white clouds in the sky and the outline of the mountains in the distance. Sheng Yunrong looked at the lake and suddenly said, "Brother, do you know? I recently learned a poem about spring."

Sheng Hongye showed an interested expression: "Oh? Sister, why don't you recite it and let your brother appreciate your talent."

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly and recited softly:

“When spring water begins to flow, spring forests begin to flourish.

Ten miles of spring breeze is not as good as you. "

After hearing this, Sheng Hongye's eyes flashed with surprise. He looked at Sheng Yunrong and said with a smile: "Sister, your talent is really amazing. This poem has a beautiful artistic conception and delicate emotions. I wonder which talented person wrote it."

Sheng Yunrong lowered her head shyly: "Brother, I saw this by chance in a book. I thought it was very good, so I wrote it down."

Sheng Hongye nodded, his eyes showing approval: "Sister, I admire your talent and understanding more and more. However, you must also remember that while you are talented, you must also learn to protect yourself."

Sheng Yunrong looked up at Sheng Hongye, with a firm light in her eyes: "Brother, don't worry, I will remember your words."

"Tell me! What's going on!" Old Lady Qin stepped forward and grabbed Xiang Zhu by the collar.

Old Madam Qin stared at Xiang Zhu with her sharp eyes, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Xiang Zhu felt a little uneasy under her stare, a blush appeared on her face, and she lowered her head slightly.

"Madam, I..." Xiang Zhu was interrupted by Madam Qin before he could finish his words.

"What do you mean by 'you'? How dare you betray me and the Qin family? You are seeking death!" Old Madam Qin's tone was cold and the strength in her hands increased. She grabbed Xiang Zhu's collar tighter and made it difficult for him to breathe.

Xiang Zhu frowned painfully. She raised her head, tears flashing in her eyes, but her tone was firm: "Old Madam, I didn't betray you, nor did I betray the Qin Mansion. I... I just..."

"Just what?" Old Madam Qin sneered, "Do you think I can't see it? Do you think I can't see it clearly because of my old eyesight?"

Xiang Zhu bit her lip, a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes, but she finally made up her mind, took a deep breath, and said, "Madam, I like someone, he...he is not from the Qin Mansion."

"What!" Madam Qin's face changed, and the strength in her hands loosened instantly. Xiang Zhu took two steps back and almost fell.

Old Madam Qin stared at Xiang Zhu with wide eyes, as if she was looking at a stranger. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and then slowly said, "Is the person you are talking about Qin Feng?"

Xiang Zhu was stunned. She didn't expect that Old Madam Qin knew Qin Feng's name. She nodded slightly.

Madam Qin sneered: "Who do you think you are? You are just a maid in my Qin Mansion. What qualifications do you have to like Qin Feng? Do you think Qin Feng would like a woman like you?"

Xiang Zhu's face turned pale in an instant. She looked at Old Madam Qin with a hint of despair in her eyes.
