âOf course, we just found out not long ago that Cousin Feng Yunâs mother, Aunt Yin, is still alive. Sheâs in the other partyâs hands. The other party used this as a threat, so Cousin Feng Yun had no choice but to follow them.â
Three pairs of eyes widened.
They were shocked and worried.
âHowever, before we continue on this topic, I have something to ask Grandpa Yin.â
ââ¦Ask away.â Yin Shuguo had yet to recover from his shock.
âLooking at Grandpa Yin, you donât seem to mind my identity at all?â She asked with a smile that made people unable to see through her.
Yan Jinyuâs words instantly diverted Yin Shuguoâs attention. âMind what? Is that what I want? How old was I when I went missing? Can I choose for myself?â
Yan Jinyuâs smile froze.
Yin Jiujin, who was held by her hand, could clearly sense that her grip on his hand had obviously tightened.
He held her hand in his.
Sensing something, Yan Jinyu looked up at him.
Yin Jiujin didnât say anything and only looked at her gently. He held her hand and pinched her fingertips.
Yan Jinyuâs complex emotions suddenly calmed down.
She retracted her gaze and smiled faintly at Yin Shuguo.
She stopped talking about that.
âThe owner of Ghost Slaughter Island is called Liu Guang. Based on our current guess, he should be related to the Min Family. Weâve always thought that he disappeared with Ghost Slaughter Island three years ago. We didnât expect him to be lucky enough to escape. We only found out not long ago that he was still alive.â
âAs for why Auntie Yin is in his hands, no one knows.â
âIt doesnât seem like he meant harm to Cousin Feng Yun by using Auntie Yin as a hostage. It seems like he just wants Cousin Feng Yun to work with him to humiliate Cousin Feng Yunâs father.â
âHe should have a huge grudge with Cousin Feng Yunâs father. He knows that Cousin Feng Yun hates him to the core, but he still wants to keep Cousin Feng Yun by his side. It can be seen that he must hate Cousin Feng Yunâs father to the extreme, which is why heâs so irrational.â
âActually, the Liu Guang I knew in the early years wasnât like this. Since he could control Ghost Slaughter Island and become its owner, and even raised so many outstanding people, itâs obvious how capable he is. But now, it seems like the blow that destroyed his base three years ago was too big for him, or his hatred for Uncle Feng had already reached a sick state.â
âIn summary, heâs not as difficult to deal with as before.â
âOf course, heâs not that easy to deal with either.â
âOther than Ghost Slaughter Island, he has other factions under him.â
âI wonder if Grandpa Yin has heard about what happened to the Feng Family previously?â
âYouâre saying that a few days ago, the Feng Familyâs members died one after another and the power of the Feng Family fell into the hands of Feng Qingâs illegitimate daughter?â Of course, Yin Shuguo had heard of this.
Although the Feng Family was not a big family, they did have some influence in Cloud City. In addition, the Yin Family and the Feng Family were also in-laws. For Feng Yunâs sake, Yin Shuguo had always asked people to pay attention to the Feng Familyâs actions all these years.
Hence, he had also heard about the Feng Family.
However, he didnât know what exactly happened to the Feng Family and why so many people died overnight and the power had completely fallen into the hands of an illegitimate daughter.
Thinking that it was just an infighting between big families, he did not have the mood to interfere. Furthermore, Feng Yun happened to be missing at that time, so he was even less inclined to interfere in the Feng Familyâs matters.
However, Yin Shuguo also did not find out that Feng Yun had gone to the Feng Family before his disappearance.
âYes. Feng Qingâs illegitimate daughter, Feng Xiangxiang, also has a daughter, Xi Fengling. Speaking of Xi Fengling, Grandpa Yin might not know her, but Grandpa Yin definitely knows Min Rufeng.â
âXi Fengling is Min Rufengâs girlfriend, and theyâre all my partners.â
âI went to the Feng Family with Xi Fengling. I only found out after I went to the Feng Family that Liu Guang was hiding in the Feng Family.â
âOf course, Iâm not saying this to tell Grandpa Yin about my partnersâ background. I just want Grandpa Yin to know that Liu Guang has many forces that we donât know about. The Feng Family is one of them. The Feng Family has already worked for Liu Guang for many years. Even Feng Qingâs youngest son, Feng Lun, was nurtured by Liu Guang.â
âI should have taken Liu Guangâs life in the Feng Family back then. I didnât expect Auntie Yin to still be in his hands, soâ¦â
âCousin Feng Yun also left with him at the Feng Familyâs residence.â
The three of them were not calm now.
The Feng Family was under Liu Guang?
They had interacted with the Feng Family before, but they didnât expect there to be someone behind the Feng Family.
If even the Feng Family was under Liu Guang, then what other families did Liu Guang have under him?
After lamenting for a long time, Yin Wuzhan spoke first, âAccording to you, Yunâer should be safe now, then we can be at ease for the time being. Just how much of Liu Guangâs power do you know? Do you know where he went after leaving the Feng Family?â
âI have some guesses about their power, but Iâm not very sure yet. However, this doesnât matter.â
âThereâs no point in getting rid of the forces under him one by one. Itâs better to wait for his base camp to be completely exposed before getting rid of them all at once. Since Liu Guang is waiting it out now, we should hold back for the time being. Protect ourselves during this period of time and prevent them from attempting any tricks.â
âSpeaking of which, he has helped us a lot by keeping Cousin Feng Yun by his side.â Did Liu Guang think that he would be fine after severing Feng Yunâs connection with the outside world? Then, he was too naive.
Feng Yun, who had been cooped up for more than 10 years, could accurately grasp the information of the outside world. He even helped them when Liu Guang tried to use Yu Qingwan ruin her relationship with Yin Jiujin. It was obvious that he was not simple.
âAs for Liu Guang now, he should be in the capital if Iâm not wrong.â
At this moment, Yin Jiujin said, âLittle Yuâer told you this because she wants you to know the truth, but she doesnât want you to interfere.â
âWe have our own arrangements for what to do next. What you have to do is protect yourself and not get involved.â
âWeâve said everything that needs to be said. Letâs return to the Azure Garden first.â
Without waiting for them to speak, he held Yan Jinyuâs hand and walked out of the study room.
The three of them looked at one another in the study room.
After a long while, Yin Yuhan spoke first, âSince theyâve already said so, Iâm sure they have a plan. Weâve also heard of Ghost Slaughter Island in the early years. From Yuâerâs ability, we can tell that the people under Liu Guang are definitely have great skills .â
âTo be honest, if Yuâer wants to take our lives with her earlier attack, none of us can avoid it.â
âWe donât have the advantage against enemies who rely on both their strength and brains at the same time. Instead of giving the two of them trouble, itâs better for us to protect ourselves and wait for their news.â
âOf course, we canât just sit back and do nothing. We canât directly deal with the enemy, but we still have to investigate what needs to be investigated.â
âFor example, what kind of feud does that Liu Guang have with Uncle, and why would he spend so much effort to create fake corpses to lie to us? All these years, he didnât expose the fact that Aunt is still alive, so why doesnât he continue to hide it now⦠For example, we have to investigate all these.â
âYouâre right.â Yin Shuguo agreed with Yin Yuhan.
Yin Wuzhan didnât say a word, but he clearly agreed.
âItâs Little Yuâ¦â Yin Shuguo hesitated.
âGrandfather, do you mind her identity?â
She shook her head. âNo, I just think that this child has a really tough life. She was only two years old when she went missing back then. How did she survive in a place like Ghost Slaughter Island?â
Yin Yuhan sighed too.
ââ¦These are all in the past. Grandfather, you donât have to think too much about it. Itâs already very good that she can come back safely now, right?â
âIf Grandfather really feels that it hasnât been easy for her all these years, as her elders, we can just give her more care and concern in the future. From the looks of it, Jinâer has already decided on her. Then, she can be considered a member of our Yin Family.â
âWe shouldnât pursue the past when it comes to our family. As long as they can have a good life in the future.â
âOf course.â Yin Shuguo glared at him. âYou said so much. Do you think that Iâm an unreasonable person? Will I not accept her because of her past? Do I look like an unreasonable elder?â
Yin Yuhan smiled. âOf course not. I know that Grandfather dotes on juniors the most. Iâm just saying. After all, no matter what her past identity was, since Jinâer has decided on her, with Jinâerâs stubborn personality, itâs best if we donât interfere too much. Otherwise, Jinâer will become distant from us again.â
âItâs enough to have learned some lessons once.â
ââ¦â Yin Shuguo. Didnât he still think that he was an unreasonable elder after saying so much?
âShut up!â
âWatch your mother. Donât let her cause any trouble again!â
âGrandfather, donât worry. Iâll watch. Actually, my mother saw Yuâer makes a move at the Min Familyâs banquet. My mother is timid. The possibility of her daring to provoke Yuâer again is not high.â
âHowever, my mother doesnât seem to know Yuâerâs identity yet. Grandfather, you donât have to worry that sheâll cause trouble when she finds out. If she finds out, sheâll only be even more afraid to provoke Yuâer.â
ââ¦â Yin Shuguo glared at Yin Wuzhan. âI wonder what kind of taste you have. The wife you married is so timid.â
ââ¦â Yin Wuzhan.
