At the same time.

In a corner of Beijing.

A man wearing a golden mask sitting at the left side of a hall suddenly stood up and looked down at a text message.

Light flashed in his dark eyes.

Although he was still in a meeting, he immediately walked out of the hall.

“Where are you going? Mr. Yang is still waiting for us,” a middle-aged man couldn’t help but stand up and say.

The man was extremely cold and his voice was commanding. Even his most loyal confidant was afraid of him. In an icy tone with no emotion, he replied, “I’m busy.”

The meeting had not ended. Everyone else stared at his back view, and no one dared to say anything.

The atmosphere was very solemn.

After he left, someone finally spoke. “Now that Xie Fumeng has left, what should we do? Mr. Yang is still...”

“He’s gone. What can we do?” After Xie Fumeng left, the middle-aged man finally sighed. “If Mr. Yang reported the truth and Fumeng wants to leave, who can stop him? Even the chief can’t do anything about Fumeng. He’s a cold-blooded animal, and we don’t know if he can kill us in anger. It’s better if we don’t go against him.”

“If the chief can’t do anything... no one in the entire alliance can control him.” The subordinates couldn’t help but feel worried.

The chief rarely appeared in the alliance.

Xie Fumeng took care of most things.

He only heard about the internal affairs today.

“I don’t know. Anyway, the chief trusts him very much. However, I might know someone who can persuade him...” The middle-aged man paused in his sentence.

“Who?” Many newcomers had joined the Underground Alliance in the past two years, and many of them looked at the middle-aged man curiously.

“I can’t mention it.” The middle-aged man thought of something and hurriedly stopped talking. He looked at the people around him sternly. “Especially in front of the chief, Fumeng, and the four top assassins... No one is allowed to mention it! Otherwise, I can’t protect you!”

The others were already fearful of Xie Fumeng.

Once the middle-aged man said that, they quickly gave up on their curiosity.

...

[Don’t pretend.]

She sent this message.

After that, Qin Ran calmly closed the windows.

She glanced at the time on her phone before turning on her computer and starting a video call.

A face quickly appeared on the computer screen.

It was still daytime for the other party. He was still on the streets, wearing a black shirt.

The camera was turned and soon, a clear face was seen. He held his phone close and his long eyelashes could be seen. There was a familiar smile on his face. “You’re not asleep at this time?”

It was Cheng Juan.

“I just came back from the Research Institute. Are you okay?” Qin Ran drank her milk. As she left it in the open for too long, it was a little cold.

“I’m fine. Wait a moment.” Cheng Juan bent over, held the phone in his left hand, and then pushed someone to look at the camera. “Brother, say hello to your sister.”

Qin Ling’s face suddenly appeared on the screen.

His eyes were dark, and from his expression, he was obviously impatient.

When he saw Qin Ran, the impatience on his face disappeared. His expression appeared excited as he said, “Sister...”

There was a little indignance in his voice.

Before he could say something, Cheng Juan immediately interrupted him and made a serious complaint. “Your brother bullied me. I initially wanted to call you, but my phone wasn’t turned on for an hour just now.”

Qin Ran put the empty cup on the table and glanced at Qin Ling.

“It’s fine. He’s my younger brother, anyway.” Cheng Juan patted Qin Ling’s head and glanced at her seriously. “You have to be very careful. Things have been complicated in the country recently, and there’s an emergency situation to discuss with Cheng Shui.”

“Go to sleep early. It’s almost 2 am there.” Cheng Juan frowned and urged her to hang up.

“Okay.” Qin Ran looked at him. Just as she was about to click on the red hang-up button, she supported her chin with her other hand and asked, “When are you coming back?”

Hearing this, Cheng Juan paused and then sighed softly. “When I’m done settling the matter here. It’s either tomorrow or the day after. I’ll try my best to return early. Be good and wait for me to come back.”

“Goodnight.”

...

Continent F.

Cheng Juan hung up the phone and stared at it for a moment.

He then sighed softly again.

Qin Ran went to Yun Cheng for a while, but he remained in the capital. When she returned to the capital, he went to Continent F.

Fortunately, nothing happened to Qin Ling.

“Your performance wasn’t bad. Your sister didn’t suspect a thing.” Cheng Juan smiled.

Beside him, Qin Ling lowered his head for a moment before saying faintly, “Thank you.”

“Who are you thanking?” Cheng Juan put his phone back into his pocket and looked at him with a smile.

“Thank you.” Qin Ling was expressionless.

Cheng Juan smiled lazily. “Brother, who am I?”

Qin Ling closed his mouth and didn’t respond.

“Boss, there’s news from Cheng Shui.” Cheng Tu hurriedly walked over with a file.

Cheng Juan’s expression became serious after he teased Qin Ling. At this time, he ordered someone. “Ask someone to send Xiao Ling to where Old Master Tang is staying. I will decide on the rest later.”

After speaking, he lowered his head to look at Qin Ling. “Go to your grand uncle’s place first.”

Qin Ling didn’t respond.

Cheng Tu told two people to take Qin Ling away.

Qin Ling left with the two subordinates.

After he took two steps, he ran back again.

He hung his head low. “Thank you...”

Cheng Juan was talking to Cheng Tu and didn’t notice that Qin Ling was back again. After hearing his voice, he turned around and casually asked, “What did you say?”

Qin Ling lifted his head. “Thank you, brother-in-law!”

After that, his face turned red and he sprinted away.

Behind him, Cheng Juan was startled for a moment before shaking his head with a smile. “This boy.”

Cheng Tu also looked in Qin Ling’s direction in shock and smiled before looking at him seriously. “The people from the Underground Alliance appeared in the capital. Ming Hai has also found Giant Crocodile. I have a conflict with Giant Crocodile. So, if he liaises with Ming Hai, we will have some problems. Boss, should we look for Miss Qin?”

Cheng Tu knew that Giant Crocodile and Qin Ran were close.

Cheng Juan shook his head. He took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and said, “Don’t make things difficult for her.”

“Then, we...” Cheng Tu sighed. “The capital is too messy.”

“You can find someone else.” Cheng Juan dusted away the soot.

Cheng Tu was surprised. “Who else is there?”

Cheng Juan turned around and glanced at him. “Lone Wolf.”
