As Gu Momo listened to these cruel words, images of the tragic destruction of wealthy families flashed through her mind, sending a chill down her spine.
Just how much did the leader of the Emperor-Killing Alliance hate the Shao family that he was willing to exterminate them all?
And it has implicated so many innocent people!
Li Zhanting's sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked, "Then I think we should find clues about the Ye family."
"Based on our deductions, the Ye family should be the core force of the Shao family. Since the leader of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance has been lurking in there for many years, he probably can't hold back any longer and might cause his family to be destroyed again."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhanfeng frowned. "It won't be so easy to get in touch with the Ye family."
"How so?"
Li Zhanting continued Li Zhanfeng's words and explained: "The Ye family holds a prominent position among the world's wealthy families. It is rumored that the family monopolizes the economic lifeline of L country and owns nearly half of the country's assets. In just over twenty years, they have become the undisputed tycoon family of L country."
"But over the years, people of all kinds have only seen the Ye family's identity information in the media. There have never been any photos or videos of them, let alone their real appearance or address. Countless people have tried to find the Ye family's whereabouts over the years, but none of them have been able to find them. So I'm afraid it won't be so easy for us to find them either."
"The most direct way should be to find someone inside the Ye family and have him take us to the Ye family."
Hearing Li Zhanting say that, Gu Momo felt a chill run down her spine.
The Ye family is so powerful that they don't allow the family to keep a low profile, but they have managed to do so!
Possessing such wealth yet never letting anyone know it—the reasons behind this are truly intriguing…
Li Zhanfeng glanced deeply at Gu Wanrou beside him, then looked tenderly at Li Zhanting, his voice unusually affectionate:
"Brother, didn't you suspect there were clues at Medicine King Valley? Why don't I go there with Rou Rou to investigate?"
In front of Li Zhanting, Li Zhanfeng always spoke in a gentle voice, and even his tone was full of respect.
Gu Wanrou looked at Li Zhanfeng in surprise and suspicion. What was wrong with him?
Medicine King Valley is Momo's territory, wouldn't it be more convenient for Momo to go there directly?
Li Zhanting couldn't help but smile. His deep gaze swept over Li Zhanfeng and Gu Wanrou, as if he had seen through everything:
"Okay, then be careful. Momo and I will wait for your news here."
Gu Wanrou's lips twitched. Why did she always feel that Master Ting and her Master Feng were plotting something...?
"Okay, thank you, brother." Li Zhanfeng's lips curled into a wicked smile as he gently took Gu Wanrou's hand and walked out.
"Sigh..." Gu Wanrou looked at Gu Momo for help, confused, but Gu Momo could only shrug helplessly.
With no hope of being rescued, she could only let Li Zhanfeng lead her out the door.
Just after Gu Wanrou and Li Zhanfeng left, Gu Momo clearly saw a familiar figure flash past the window...
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting glanced at each other and, surprisingly, chose to hold each other's hands instead of chasing after them.
"So Zhan Ting thinks the same way I do?" Gu Momo leaned closer to Li Zhan Ting, her eyes revealing a hint of coquettishness.
Li Zhanting's eyes were deep and smiling: "Because I think Momo must also think she is someone we can trust. Besides, she will be your sister-in-law in the future. We can't directly ask us to go to the Ye family, lest we bring her to her death."
"Zhan Ting, you're amazing! You even guessed what I was thinking!" Gu Momo couldn't help but give Li Zhan Ting a big thumbs up.
If the Ye family was indeed founded by the core surviving members of the Shao family, then it must be rife with murderous intent within.
If things go wrong, it could cost her her life!
Therefore, Gu Momo preferred to rely on their own abilities to find the way to the Ye family!
Li Zhanting's strong arms suddenly pulled Gu Momo into his embrace, his eyes full of a playful chuckle: "What, Momo, you're not even calling me 'husband' anymore? Weren't you calling me 'husband' so happily last night? Now you're turning your back on me?"
As the deep, sexy voice entered her ears, Gu Momo felt her cheeks flush red to the roots of her ears.
The embarrassing scenes from last night flashed through her mind, and she almost punched Li Zhanting in the face.
"I...I didn't call out!" Gu Momo quickly turned around. "I didn't call out last night either! Don't wrong me!"
"Is that so?" Li Zhanting's charming voice was tinged with amusement. He wrapped his arms around Gu Momo tighter from behind, his breath falling on her neck. "It seems Momo has forgotten. Well then, husband will help you remember!"
After saying that, he picked Gu Momo up and carried her straight to her bedroom.
Gu Momo was on the verge of tears. Here we go again?!
Outside the manor, Gu Wanrou closed the car door, about to ask, "Hey, Li Zhanfeng, what are you doing...?"
Li Zhanfeng's charmingly handsome face suddenly drew closer, their breaths mingling and swirling together. Gu Wanrou could even clearly feel the warmth of Li Zhanfeng's breath...
A deep smile played in his dark eyes, and his voice was low and husky:
"My brother and sister-in-law are always going on romantic trips outside, and I also want to go on an intimate trip with you."
Before Gu Wanrou could react, Li Zhanfeng grabbed the back of her head with his large hand and pressed her down onto the back seat.
"Ugh..." Gu Wanrou instinctively tried to push Li Zhanfeng up, but hey... there's a driver in front!
Li Zhanfeng gently stroked Gu Wanrou's cheek with his large hand, his voice carrying a wicked chuckle: "It's alright, sweetheart. Let's do our own thing. If any of them dare to look, I'll gouge their eyes out tomorrow."
The driver who was about to drive ahead: Oh my god, I'm innocent!
"Don't worry, Master Feng! We didn't see or hear anything. Please continue with your business!" After saying that, he quickly lowered the partition, blocking out all the sounds behind him.
Gu Wanrou: "..."
I was devastated. So that's what Li Zhanfeng was planning!
Gu Wanrou and Li Zhanfeng's car quickly drove away, but they didn't know that in the courtyard not far from the Rong family, Ye Meng was hiding her small body behind the flowers, her bright black eyes fixed on Gu Wanrou's car as it left.
Her fair fingers gripped the leaf tightly, and the delicate flowers made her soft, cute face look even more adorable.
But in those dark, bright eyes, there was a clear hint of tension and unease.
She quickly dialed a number, deliberately lowering her voice: "Ni Niang... I... I want to take Sister Momo to the Ye family."
