Hongjiao felt she had no face to face them, so she lowered her head and didn't dare to look into Han Mingliang's or Leopard's eyes.
Especially at times like this, with the tattooed man and his gang watching her, she couldn't convey any information and could only let things unfold as they would. At least the feeling she gave was genuine, and the tattooed man and his gang wouldn't realize she was acting.
The tattooed man burst into laughter.
"We just said that if Yinghuo can defeat this woman, you will be at our mercy. Does that still stand?" he asked Han Mingliang.
Han Mingliang was at a loss for words. If he went back on his word now, it would definitely lead to a new round of fighting, and if Han Mingzhi found out, his future would be bleak. But if he agreed, he didn't know how he would be treated. He was truly caught in a dilemma.
Just then, Yinghuo spoke up: "Then I'm sorry, Young Master Han."
This title stunned everyone.
However, since they are already winners, any respectful address sounds somewhat ironic.
Before anyone could react, Yinghuo had already pushed Hongjiao away.
Hongjiao stumbled straight towards the leopard, who instinctively caught her.
"It's alright," Hongjiao said to the leopard as he helped her up.
At first glance, it seems like she's just saying she's fine and that the leopard shouldn't worry, but in this context, her words are definitely suggestive, implying that Yinghuo would be fine even if she attacked Han Mingliang.
The leopard understood almost instantly, and he quickly repeated it twice more. "It's alright, it's alright."
—Hopefully Han Mingliang can understand.
"Things have come to this point, so Young Master, there's no need for you to make a futile struggle." As she spoke, Yinghuo had already approached.
Han Mingliang actually sensed some unspoken messages, so when facing Yinghuo, although he was nervous, a voice in his heart was also telling him something.
"As long as he cooperates, nothing will happen."
In a flash, Yinghuo's folding fan opened and closed, like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Han Mingliang's abdomen. Han Mingliang let out a muffled groan, and blood immediately gushed out.
A cold wind swept through the broken window, filling the room with the stench of blood.
"Han Mingliang, Han Mingliang!"
Leopard couldn't care less about Hongjiao now and rushed over to check on Han Mingliang's condition.
"Um...I..."
Han Mingliang was unable to speak anymore. After struggling for a while, he fainted.
Hongjiao also came forward to check on the situation. Although she did not have Qin Yiheng's medical skills, she could still help Han Mingliang temporarily stop the bleeding by using acupressure.
Moreover, she could see that Yinghuo had indeed kept her word and hadn't killed Han Mingliang. This area had just caused more bleeding, but it wouldn't actually hurt him.
Having reached this conclusion, Hongjiao's feelings for Yinghuo became even more complicated.
Things really did develop in a way that was beyond the tattooed man's imagination. He didn't expect that Yinghuo would actually complete the mission. Could it be that he was wrong before?
Even after returning to the Han family home and meeting Han Mingzhi, the tattooed man still seemed somewhat absent-minded.
He glanced furtively at Han Mingzhi, then at Yinghuo, and some thoughts quietly began to sprout in his mind.
If he told Han Mingzhi, it would at least serve as a reminder, and it wouldn't be considered that he was deliberately making trouble for Yinghuo. Whether it succeeded or not, it certainly wouldn't have any impact on him. Perhaps if Yinghuo really did something treacherous, Han Mingzhi would even reward him for his meritorious report.
"You guys can go now."
Several people walked out one after another, but the man with the tattooed arm kept turning back to look at him, clearly having something to say. How could someone as smart as Han Mingzhi not see through it?
So I called him over directly.
"Is there anything else?"
"Second Young Master, we intercepted Han Mingliang at the club today. When the fight broke out, two other people came. A woman got into a fight with Yinghuo. I think there might be something wrong between the two of them."
"The other two people? Who are they?" Han Mingzhi frowned. His first thought was that Qin Yiheng was there, but why was Yinghuo fighting with a woman?
The tattooed man quickly described the two men's appearances.
Actually, Leopard and Hongjiao's appearances are quite memorable, especially Hongjiao, who always wears the same red dress, so Han Mingzhi knew who they were as soon as he heard their names.
Last time Yinghuo fought Hongjiao, he was somewhat outmatched. This time, he was fighting Hongjiao again. Although the result was good, Han Mingzhi's suspicions were aroused again after the tattooed man said that.
His expression was unpredictable, and the tattooed man couldn't understand it. He didn't know what the consequences would be after he said those words, so he just stood there cautiously.
"Second Young Master, these are just my guesses..." He wanted to explain further, but Han Mingzhi raised his hand to indicate that he didn't need to say anything more.
"Alright, I understand. You may leave now."
When the tattooed man walked out of the villa, he was still a little dizzy, but judging from the result, he should not have done anything wrong. So, he might be promoted by Han Mingzhi. Thinking of this, he felt very happy.
Han Mingzhi took it to heart, but he wouldn't take any action for the time being.
Since Yinghuo no longer needs to do anything, it means he has no chance to contact Qin Yiheng. He just needs to think about how to thoroughly verify whether Yinghuo has any ulterior motives.
For now, Han Mingliang doesn't need to expend much effort on this matter; he can simply send someone to keep an eye on things.
The people he really needed to pay attention to were Han Mingming and Han Mingmei.
These two are not only cunning, but they also have Han Qiang backing them up, so they really can't be ignored.
At the same time, Qin Yiheng hung up the phone with Jiang Yan and faced the towering mountains before him with a cold and solemn expression.
"Is this the place?" Luo Jinxiu shouted in the strong wind.
Qin Yiheng didn't answer, but his expression said it all.
After such a long journey, the two finally found some traces of Qingling Peak. Now, it remains to be seen how Qin Yiheng will break the formation and enter Qingling Peak.
After observing for an unknown amount of time, Qin Yiheng raised his hand, signaling Luo Jinxiu to retreat as far as possible.
Luo Jinxiu could no longer see Qin Yiheng's figure clearly.
But that one sound was earth-shattering!
"Charge!"
In the biting wind, Qingling Peak finally revealed its true form, towering into the clouds, shrouded in celestial mist. But what awaited the two within was unknown…
