At that moment, at the border between H Province and S Province, in a van without license plates, Qiu Hai dialed He Yongze's number.
"Hey, Brother Ze, I'm at the border between S Province and H Province now," Qiu Hai said hurriedly after answering the phone.
He Yongze was sitting in the office with Zhang Chengyang at that moment, and the phone was on speakerphone.
"Hmm, you didn't tell anyone you came back, did you?" He Yongze asked.
"No, no," Qiu Hai said. "I'm just waiting for your and Young Master Zhang's orders."
“Alright, come find me at the place. Young Master Zhang is here too. I can give you some instructions. Don’t tell anyone you’re back yet, so as not to affect tonight’s operation plan,” He Yongze said.
"Okay, Brother Ze."
After hanging up the phone, He Yongze looked at Zhang Chengyang with a smile and said, "Brother Yang, now that things are done, shouldn't you call Brother Lang to say something?"
Zhang Chengyang sat on the sofa, nodded, and said, "I'll call Brother Lang."
After saying that, he took out his phone and dialed Shen Lang's number.
Shen Lang had finished washing up and was sitting by the bed serving Yu Xian'er, who had difficulty moving, her meal.
Suddenly, Zhang Chengyang called. He said to Shuang'er, "Answer the phone."
“Young Master, I can eat by myself.” When Yu Xian’er saw Shen Lang’s phone ring, she reached out to take the bowl and spoon from Shen Lang’s hand.
"Listen to me, don't move around." Shen Lang said in a gentle yet unquestionable tone.
Shuang'er answered the phone, her tone slightly displeased, and asked, "Is there something you need, Young Master Zhang?"
She had finally managed to witness such a sweet moment between the young master and the young lady, but Zhang Chengyang had interrupted it, so she was somewhat annoyed.
"Little sister-in-law, is Brother Lang there?" Zhang Chengyang didn't know which woman answered the phone, so he simply called her "little sister-in-law," thinking that since she was someone close to Shen Lang, it wouldn't hurt to call her that.
However, Shuang'er blushed deeply at being called "little sister-in-law," but she didn't deny it. Instead, she said, "Young master is right beside me. Is there anything you need?"
Shen Lang scooped up a spoonful of chicken soup with a jade spoon, blew on it to cool it down, and held it to Yu Xian'er's lips: "Good girl, open your mouth."
Yu Xian'er cooperated by opening her lips and drinking it down.
"Here's the thing, could you please tell Brother Lang that Tiger is back, and we're waiting for Brother Lang's next instructions?" Zhang Chengyang didn't know what Shen Lang was doing at the moment, so he could only entrust the matter to Shuang'er.
"Young Master," Shuang'er called out softly to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang sat up straight and said into the phone microphone, "Keep him calm, protect him at the mAx bar, cut off his contact with the outside world, and don't let anyone touch him."
"Yes, Brother Lang," Zhang Chengyang replied.
"Okay, I'll be there in a bit." With that, Shen Lang hung up the phone.
Yu Xian'er sat on the bed and said, "Young master, you should go about your business. Shuang'er is taking care of me at home."
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "It's nothing, a small matter."
Then continue feeding Yu Xian'er.
Shuang'er stood to the side, holding a blue and white porcelain soup bowl in her hand, watching the tender couple with eyes full of happiness and envy.
What's heartening is that Shen Lang is truly devoted and gentle to Yu Xian'er, proving that Yu Xian'er made the right choice.
She envied that she also wanted to enjoy Shen Lang's gentleness, just like Yu Xian'er.
After feeding Yu Xian'er, Shen Lang carefully wiped the oil off her lips and said softly, "Xian'er, I won't be coming back for dinner today. You stay home and rest well."
"Yes, Xian'er understands." Yu Xian'er nodded slightly, feeling as sweet as if a honey pot had been broken open.
After getting dressed, Shen Lang took Dongxue out.
Seeing that Dongxue had gone out with Shen Lang again, Chunyu, who was in the same room as Dongxue, hurriedly ran to another room and started gossiping with Qiuye and Xiayang: "Sisters, sisters! Sister Xue'er went out with Young Master He. Do you think Young Master He likes Sister Xue'er and doesn't like us?"
Qiu Ye lay on the bed, flipping through a martial arts manual in her hand, and said with an elegant smile, "What, you want to compete for the emperor's favor?"
"No, it's just that Young Master always takes the eldest brother with him when he goes out. When will you take us out to play too?" Chunyu pouted and said.
"Didn't you just go out with the young master yesterday?" Xia Yang, who was cultivating, opened his eyes and looked at her.
Chunyu said, "Sister Xue'er goes out with the young master every day, but I've only been gone for a short time."
Qiu Ye closed the book, looked at Chun Yu with doting eyes and smiled, "Then you should cultivate hard and try to surpass Sister Xue'er, then you can go out with the boss every day."
"Eek!" Chunyu grinned upon hearing this. "Then forget it. Who can compare to that freak, Sister Xue'er? She increases her cultivation even by drinking cold water."
She then made up Qiuye's bed, and the two of them started fooling around. Xia Yang glanced at them, shook his head, and continued cultivating with his eyes closed.
Qin Shiya has now become the chef for everyone except Shen Lang and Yu Xian'er. A moment later, she walked into the room and said, "Sisters, breakfast is ready."
"Yohoo! Let me taste if Xiaoshiya's cooking has improved today." Chunyu jumped out of bed first, put on her shoes, and ran downstairs.
After cleaning up the leftovers, Shuang'er returned to the bedroom on the third floor, brought Yu Xian'er a glass of warm water, and pouted, saying, "Young Master really doesn't know how to cherish Miss. He made her suffer like this on her first time."
Yu Xian'er's face quickly turned red, and she glanced at her with a charming look, then said coquettishly, "You crazy girl, you talk too much. Next time I'll have the young master teach you a lesson."
At this moment, Qin Shiya's voice rang out from the second floor. Upon hearing this, Shuang'er stuck out her tongue at Yu Xian'er and said, "I don't want to, I'm scared." Then she quickly fled the room and ran towards the restaurant on the first floor.
"This girl." Yu Xian'er lay half-reclined on the edge of the bed, looking at her with a doting smile.
Apart from Yu Xian'er, who was rendered immobile by Shen Lang's antics in bed, everyone else gathered in the first-floor restaurant. Without Yu Xian'er's intimidation, Shuang'er revealed her true nature as a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), making everyone burst into laughter at the dinner table.
At this moment, Qiu Hai and his gang had arrived at the entrance of the mAx bar. The group of men were hiding in an unlicensed van, still hesitating.
"Brother Tiger, why do I feel a little scared?" the henchman sitting next to Qiu Hai said, his voice trembling slightly.
Qiu Hai reached out and slapped him hard on the head, cursing, "What are you afraid of? You've been following me for so many years and you're still afraid? Don't you know what it means to be rich and powerful in danger?"
The younger brother was also beaten by Qiu Hai and dared not speak.
Qiu Hai hesitated for a long time before finally making up his mind: "Who cares? As long as I can climb up the Zhang family's high branch, I won't be manipulated by that Liu woman anymore. I'll work for her, and if anything happens, she'll just make me run away."
Qiu Hai was unaware of Liu Huimin's relationship with the highest executive of S Province. He only thought of Liu Huimin as a wealthy person who owned a hotel, so among his people, Liu Huimin and the Zhang family were not in the same league.
