The Yan family.
Lin Xuanxiao and Ye Yingjie got out of the car and headed straight for the main hall.
Despite being treated like that, Yan Shuze can still sit here as if nothing happened, which shows his high level of mental fortitude.
"How does Patriarch Yan plan to handle this incident? We didn't get the benefits we wanted; instead, we were suppressed. With Long Yunting's arrival in Haicheng, things have changed. We should prepare as soon as possible."
Lin Xuanxiao had fought with Long Yunting several times and knew what kind of abilities Long Yunting possessed.
Therefore, he also had great concerns.
Yan Shuze's eyes darkened as he looked at Lin Xuanxiao.
"Boss Lin seems to be quite wary of this Long Yunting."
"This person is someone we must be wary of," Lin Xuanxiao readily admitted.
Yan Shuze looked at him with cold indifference, devoid of emotion, and said, "If Boss Lin is afraid, he can leave Haicheng and find another way out."
Lin Xuanxiao raised an eyebrow. "I didn't mean that. Patriarch Yan, you don't need to view me, Lin Xuanxiao, in that way."
Lin Xuanxiao was not someone who was afraid of death.
He cannot leave Haicheng.
Yan Shuze had already promised to marry him to a daughter of the Yan family, which meant that he would have a close relationship with the Yan family in the future.
For the sake of future benefits, he cannot leave now under any circumstances.
Yan Shuze had already guessed what Lin Xuanxiao was thinking, but he didn't expose him.
“After this incident, we need to rest and recuperate,” Yan Shuze suddenly said. “Nothing will happen in the short term.”
This also serves as a message to Lin Xuanxiao, telling him not to move around unnecessarily during this period.
Lin Xuanxiao and Ye Yingjie were quite surprised.
Lin Xuanxiao could wait quietly, but Ye Yingjie could not.
Because of his grudges with the Ye family, he couldn't put them aside temporarily just because of Yan Shuze's words.
Now that we've started, we have to keep going.
"Patriarch Yan, the grudges between me and the Ye family are not so easily resolved. Please understand." Ye Yingjie's voice was somewhat cold and also carried a hint of toughness.
Yan Shuze looked at Ye Yingjie with a deep gaze, but said nothing.
“His affair with the Ye family has already begun, and there’s no way to stop now. Patriarch Yan should understand that,” Lin Xuanxiao said, speaking up for his deputy.
Yan Shuze said calmly, "You know the relationship between Sheng Qian and Long Yunting, and you are also aware of the cooperation between her and the Ye family. If you take action against the Ye family, she will inevitably step forward. This will create a chain reaction. Are you sure you want to do this?"
Yan Shuze's words were cold, yet they also contained a hidden warning.
Ye Yingjie's face turned cold, because the truth was indeed as Yan Shuze had said.
The current situation is that these families have joined forces. Once one of them is implicated, the others will be dragged down as well. The most troublesome one is Long Yunting's side.
Thinking of this, Ye Yingjie lost all goodwill towards Sheng Qian.
At first, she was a weak woman who could be easily manipulated. Everyone could see clearly what Xiaofeng had to do with her. If anyone wanted to touch her, they would have to think twice. She was quite imposing, intimidating everyone so that they dared not move easily. This was probably the result that Sheng Qian wanted.
After the small summit, no one dared to make any moves, and even Yan Shuze, that madman, had to restrain himself.
They really hadn't expected this scene.
As I walked out of the hall, I saw Yan Yaya walking towards me.
Yan Yaya is Yan Shuze's younger sister, born of the same mother.
In terms of appearance, she is undoubtedly outstanding, a top socialite in Haicheng.
When she saw Lin Xuanxiao, she gave a gentle smile and said, "Brother Lin."
Seeing this, Ye Yingjie nodded and then went out to wait.
"Brother Lin came to talk to my brother about something?"
"Well, let's talk about what happened last time," Lin Xuanxiao clearly didn't want to discuss serious matters with her. "I'm going out for dinner anyway, want to come with me?"
From the very beginning, Yan Yaya was told by Yan Shuze that he would bring her and Lin Xuanxiao together, and that their relationship was progressing well, with only an engagement remaining.
Therefore, Yan Yaya did not refuse Lin Xuanxiao's invitation, and nodded shyly: "Okay!"
She also had a good impression of Lin Xuanxiao.
The two naturally came together.
Yan Shuze stood by the window, watching the scene outside, his eyes calm and indifferent.
*
Not long after I went out, it started to drizzle.
Long Yunting held the umbrella at an angle and placed it over Sheng Qian's head, using his tall body to shield her from the surrounding wind and rain.
"Winter is coming soon, it's getting a bit chilly," Sheng Qian said, looking up at the overcast sky, her eyes darkening.
A piece of clothing was draped over her shoulders. "It's chilly outside, let's go inside."
Sheng Qian tugged at her clothes slightly and smiled, "Okay."
The two passed by a restaurant and, since it was lunchtime, chose this one.
They walked in and unfortunately ran into someone they knew.
This familiar face was none other than Ye Yingjie.
After arranging a place for Lin Xuanxiao and Yan Yaya to eat, he came out and then ran into Sheng Qian and Long Yunting.
You should try to meet them as soon as possible in Haicheng.
Therefore, Ye Yingjie didn't show much emotional fluctuation. He calmly nodded slightly to the two of them and then left.
“Lin Xuanxiao is eating here, and the people he’s eating with are probably from the Yan family,” Sheng Qian guessed, referring to Yan Shuze.
Thinking of Yan Shuze's inexplicable possessiveness towards Sheng Qian, Long Yunting's expression darkened, and he gripped Sheng Qian's hand tightly.
Sheng Qian glanced at him but said nothing.
Following him inside, they indeed saw Lin Xuanxiao.
Yan Yaya, sitting opposite Lin Xuanxiao, followed his gaze and was stunned when she saw Sheng Qian and Long Yunting, the perfect couple.
