Inside the resort's lounge.
Luo He, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, looked at herself in the mirror and gave a wry smile.
I never imagined that I would be forced to step down in my old age.
"Jing Yi, how are the arrangements for the family members going?"
"We have eliminated most of those who have ulterior motives during this period."
Luo He said calmly, "Most of them? That means there are still some that haven't been eliminated."
Luo Jingyi bowed and did not reply.
"Forget it, I know there are some people you can't easily do to. No rush, there's plenty of time."
"Grandpa, why did you choose to hold the banquet here?"
Luohe walked slowly to the tea table: "Do you want to ask why it's not in the ancestral hall?"
"Um."
"There are too many people and it's too noisy. Moreover, today's abdication may be more complicated than I thought."
"It shouldn't be at Second Aunt's villa, after all, this is military territory."
Luo He picked up his teacup and blew away the steam rising from it: "It doesn't matter. After all, seeing through people's hearts comes at a price."
"Don't you trust your second uncle and second aunt?"
"I used to believe it, but recent events have made me think more about it."
"Then why not just...?"
Luo He waved his hand: "This may not be a bad thing. Don't forget, your second uncle's surname is Luo."
"But......"
"Has Qin Bai arrived?" He interrupted Luo Jingyi before he could finish speaking.
"His men said he's already on his way."
"Hehe, I knew he couldn't stay idle."
Luo Jingyi said, "I'll go and have someone stop him right now."
"No need. It's good that he's here for something so interesting. Besides, I'm also curious how he walked in so openly."
Hearing Luo He's whisper, Luo Jingyi lowered his head slightly.
Is this a test of the He family's attitude?
Logically speaking, given how things have come to this point, he should have already realized something. Why is he still pretending not to know anything?
He Lingyu practically has the label of having her eye on Qin Bai plastered all over her head. Could it be that Luo He has other plans?
Thinking of this, Luo Jingyi frowned slightly.
Luo He sipped his tea leisurely: "Ah, when people get old, they often think about things from their youth."
“When I was your age, I was also vying for the position of clan leader, using all sorts of methods.”
"Back then, in order to win against those people, I actually joined forces with the Luo family's rivals. Looking back now, it's quite ridiculous."
Luo He reached out and patted Luo Jingyi on the shoulder.
He said in a calm tone, "Tell me, my dear grandson."
In an instant.
Luo Jingyi felt like he was being pricked by thorns.
......
Qin Bai, who had been being cheeky, now felt refreshed.
I hate those people who act all high and mighty. We're all carbon-based beings, but they act superior, like everyone else is some nobody.
The car was parked in front of the resort.
Gu Zichen said, "Are we really okay to just walk in like this?"
"It's not 'us,' it's just me."
"Can't I go in with you?"
Qin Bai laughed and said, "It's no use me letting you in."
He pointed to the dozen or so security guards at the entrance: "They scan your face, but there's no information for you inside."
Gu Zichen scoffed, "I don't believe this manor has no blind spots. I can just jump in; there's nowhere that can stop me."
"Forget it, with hundreds of cameras watching the surroundings, don't think those big shots don't value their lives. They're more afraid of dying than anyone else."
Gu Zichen glanced around and asked, "Strategist, you don't really intend to go in by yourself, do you?"
"Do as I said before, and wait for me outside with your men."
After saying that, Qin Bai walked straight inside.
Gu Zichen gritted his teeth.
I hope the strategist is alright, otherwise I'll risk being expelled from the sect to drag you all down with me.
He picked up the phone: "Hey, Lao Wan, where are you guys? North of the villa? If I knew which way was north, would I need to call you? Just send me your location."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Zichen glanced at the navigation.
So this is north, it's not what I guessed.
Actually, I have a pretty good skill. If I get lost in the deep mountains and forests, as long as people don't follow my own directions, I'm guaranteed to get home.
Qin Bai walked to the entrance of the villa with his hands in his pockets.
"Please take a look at the invitation."
"Scan your face".
"Mr. Qin, please come in."
Qin Bai looked at the instruments around him.
You know what, it's actually quite formal, almost like a subway security check.
Let alone firearms, it would be difficult to even bring in a nail clipper.
Upon entering, one can see He Lingyu standing in the distance, greeting guests.
Qin Bai turned the corner and tried to find a side road to go around it.
You can't see me.
You can't see me.
If you get entangled with this woman, it will be difficult to get away.
"Qin Bai, wait a minute... Hey, hey, hey, don't run away! Why are you running away the more we talk? There's no road over there."
Qin Bai stared dumbfounded at the more than 3-meter-high wall in front of him.
That's it, we're in a dead end, we're surrounded.
He Lingyu stood behind him and laughed, "Go ahead and run, go ahead and run, or I'll catch you..."
"Stop, stop, stop! You're using every lousy joke imaginable."
He Lingyu looked around at him and asked, "Why did you come alone? Didn't you say you had a female companion?"
"Oh, I'll be there in a bit."
"Tch! They're not even on the list, how did they get in?"
He Lingyu pointed to the high wall in front of her: "See that? It's really more than 3 meters high. I don't believe Yu Xiaoyu can actually jump in."
Qin Bai rolled his eyes: "Are you a child? You believe everything she says."
"Hmph, is that not allowed?"
He Lingyu proudly raised her head, her pink lips slightly parted, moist and shiny.
......
