“Our Xie family has been rooted in Haicheng for nearly a century. Are we afraid of an outsider?” Xie Zhuoxiao, the eldest son of the Xie family, said angrily. “What can we do by sitting here in silence? Do you think they can bind our Xie family with their action order?”
Xie Wei looked at his son and also felt that the Xie family had retreated too quickly this time, so quickly that outsiders would think that the Xie family was easy to bully.
Xie Wei's brother, Xie Qing, said coldly, "Brother, Zhuo Xiao is right. Does our Xie family, a great clan, fear two mud children? So what if it's the Long family of the capital? Can their reach be longer than these landlords in Haicheng?"
The Xie family are the real landlords in Haicheng!
The saying goes, "Even a mighty dragon can't suppress a local snake."
The Xie family really shouldn't have backed down.
“We should retaliate immediately, especially since that little bitch has taken our territory. We must not only take it back, but also make her pay the price. I think the Yan family head has a bit of a crush on this bitch, so why don’t we cooperate with the Yan family?”
Someone made a suggestion.
This suggestion immediately reminded them of the matter.
At that time, Yan Shuze's feelings for Sheng Qian were indeed very special.
They didn't think about anything else, but only that Yan Shuze had taken a liking to Sheng Qian's beauty and wanted to take her by his side.
Men, you know.
Once you get it, you won't cherish it for long.
If this woman could become Yan Shuze's plaything, it wouldn't be a bad thing to be happy about.
So that Sheng Qian could experience what it means to have her life and death not in her own hands.
The Xie family was secretly plotting how to get Sheng Qian to the Yan family for revenge. Sheng Qian and Long Yunting left the Fu family's stronghold and returned to the courtyard where they were temporarily staying.
Long Yunting held Sheng Qian's hand tightly, making sure she was always by his side.
They had so much to say, yet they said nothing.
Long Yunting told Sheng Qian to rest well, then turned around and went out to gather his people.
The next day, the Fu family's temporary lodging.
Sheng Mu stayed here all night, and rushed in as soon as Fu Huoqing woke up.
The Sheng family members have already gone back, leaving only Sheng Mu and Sheng Yu here to see if there's anything they can help with.
Fu Yinru raised his eyebrows high as he watched Sheng Mu rush in.
That kid!
Fu Yinru followed him inside. Fu Huoqing had already woken up and was in good spirits.
"Your injuries are under control. Just rest and recover. Don't worry about anything else for now."
"Uncle, where is Sheng Qian?" Fu Huoqing searched everywhere but couldn't find Sheng Qian, and couldn't stop worrying.
Ji You saw through her thoughts and said, "Miss Sheng has left safely. Neither the Yan family nor anyone else managed to get anything out of her. Young Master Long is protecting her very well, so there's no need to worry about anyone coming back to cause trouble for her."
If you want to cause trouble, you'll have to get past Long Yunting first.
Upon hearing this, Fu Huoqing breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still worried. "They are going against the powerful families of Haicheng. They will definitely not have a peaceful future."
One thing after another awaits them.
“We will be staying in Haicheng for a long time. We are also involved in their affairs, and we will help each other if needed,” Fu Yinru said. “We will not let your parents know about your situation for the time being, so you can rest and recuperate in peace.”
This was to tell Fu Huoqing not to think about anything else and to lie here and recover from her injuries.
Fu Huoqing outwardly agreed, but inwardly she was still thinking about how she could help Sheng Qian.
"Huo Qing, don't worry, we, the Sheng family, are here. No matter what, Sheng Qian and our Sheng family share the same surname, and we were family hundreds of years ago. Our Sheng family can't just stand by and do nothing about her situation." Sheng Mu quickly chimed in, indicating that he would help Sheng Qian.
Fu Huoqing finally looked over. "Thank you."
"No need to thank me. Sheng Qian is also a mutual friend of ours. She helped me in the jungle before, so it's only right that I help her."
That's true, but this gang is different from the one in the jungle.
"Sheng Mu, let Xiao Qing rest first. Let's go outside," Fu Yinru indicated that Sheng Mu could leave.
He waited here just to see Fu Huoqing wake up, right? Now that he's seen her, he can leave.
Sheng Yu also noticed that the Fu family wasn't very welcoming to them, so he tugged at Sheng Mu and said, "Then we'll come back tomorrow," and then pulled Sheng Mu away.
Sheng Mu said goodbye to Fu Yinru and then left.
Seeing this, Ji You couldn't help but say, "Huo Qing and this young man are quite good friends, and I think Huo Qing is well aware of his feelings for her."
"Are you saying I'm meddling? This kid is staring at Xiao Qing so openly, I have to keep an eye on her for her parents' sake," so she won't be easily seduced by the man.
Despite Fu Huoqing's appearance, she is completely clueless about matters of the heart. As her uncle, he has to help keep an eye on things.
Although Ji You watched Fu Huoqing grow up, she was still an outsider and couldn't say much.
"You seem to quite admire this Sheng Mu."
"Sheng Mu's abilities are quite good," Ji You said, making it a matter of public opinion.
Sheng Mu's abilities are indeed quite good, that's the truth.
Moreover, he could tell that Sheng Mu genuinely liked Fu Huoqing, and the Sheng family had a good family tradition and did similar things to the Fu family.
If the children from both families walk together, they can have common topics to talk about.
“There are plenty of capable young people in Haicheng and Beijing, so we don’t need another Sheng Mu.”
"That's true, but ultimately it depends on who is more suitable for Huo Qing." Ji You understood Fu Yinru's feelings. Their own child was naturally the best, and none of the others were good enough for their child.
