"What did you want to write in the letter?" Lu Yi and Ye Ran asked curiously.
Ran Yu and Yan Ning both looked grave. "The letter said..."
He said he didn't know why he was being targeted by a mysterious person. Years ago, the person had sent us messages, but we never heard from him again, and none of the people he sent out ever returned...
Calling the police didn't help, and... the local authorities didn't even bother with the matter...
So he realized that he had been targeted by someone with considerable power, and he didn't even know why...
Even the time when Lao Lu came to him, he didn't dare to cause him any trouble...
After all... back then, Lao Lu and we had just established ourselves in Beijing, and he couldn't let himself cause us trouble...
That's why he didn't dare to make any moves until some time before the incident, when he noticed something unusual about one of the farmhands in his household...
He knew it was all over this time, so he found an opportunity to deliver the letter to us…
Ye Ran's expression changed. "That farmhand... is his name Xu Qiang?"
Ran Yu nodded. "That's right! We arrived too late, only managing to rescue Bai Yue. But the series of actions were so swift that we didn't even have time to investigate the full story..."
There must be a powerful force driving things forward...
We sensed something was wrong then, and just as we were thinking of bringing Bai Yue back to Beijing as soon as possible...
We discovered that even we were being targeted...
Furthermore, several other powerful families in Beijing are also targeting us this time, so we dare not take Bai Yue away again...
We and Lao Lu suspected that Lao Bai must have something about him that made him a target.
As a result, to their surprise, we ended up in Willow Leaf Village...
So they began to believe that the thing had been secretly transferred to us...
So, we decided to play along, pretending to wander around the Bai family's old house a few times, leaving Bai Yue in the care of a trustworthy person before returning to the capital..."
Ye Ran looked at them in shock, "Are you... using yourselves as targets?"
Ran Yu smiled gently, "How can you say that? We were just doing what we could for our deceased friend..."
Back in Beijing, we discovered, as expected, that someone had infiltrated our ranks and was monitoring us closely...
We are too busy taking care of ourselves to check on you, and we dare not come to you for fear of drawing attention back to you...
So this stalemate continued for many years...
We haven't been sitting idly by all these years; we've cleared out most of the businesses that were there back then...
Only that person has yet to reveal their true identity...
Until a few years ago…
Lu Yi's expression changed immediately upon hearing this. A few years ago...
"A few years ago, I could clearly sense that the man was losing patience because his movements were becoming increasingly hurried..."
So we acted quickly and crippled most of his wings, but in the end we didn't completely eliminate him. Instead, we were attacked by other opponents..."
