"This guy comes back super late or doesn’t come back at all every day. I really don’t know what he’s up to. Does he really think of this place as a hotel?"
Ye Yaxin said somewhat ventingly, her tone filled with dissatisfaction.
"Sis, your jealousy is really getting stronger!"
Ye Yashi sat to the side, her eyes revealing a sly gleam as she looked at Ye Yaxin, a smile beaming across her face.
"Don’t talk nonsense, girl. What jealousy? I’m just a bit angry that this guy is out of line. No matter what, he’s my fiancé right now, Ye Yaxin’s fiancé, and he must pay attention to his image and influence."
Ye Yaxin spat out coldly.
"All right, sis, I know you’re jealous. You don’t have to be a stubborn duck,"
Ye Yashi chuckled and spat out: "If you don’t want your future husband to fool around outside, you have to treat him better, be gentler, and if all else fails, just offer yourself up. I guarantee that afterward, he will definitely stay at home obediently."
"What are you talking about, you girl? What do you mean, ’offer myself up’? You really are getting dirtier by the day,"
Ye Yaxin’s face flushed red as she glared at Ye Yashi, then proceeded to smack her directly.
"Sis, I’m serious. Aren’t all men lecherous creatures, especially look at your fiancé; he’s a big hooligan. To deal with such a man, you have to be ruthless, sacrifice yourself, otherwise, it’s useless."
Ye Yashi quickly dodged, continuing to persuade with earnest advice.
Ye Yaxin’s face turned a deep shade of red, her eyes filled with bashful expressions, intertwined with a hint of complex emotions.
And if Xiao Yifeng found out his younger sister-in-law was helping him in this way, he would definitely be delighted to hug her and give her a few fervent kisses.
Early the next morning, the entire Tianhai City was rocked by a piece of news.
Peng Hu, a director of the top-tier Dragon Tiger Corporation in Tianhai, was murdered in his own villa, along with fifty to sixty of his bodyguards and security personnel, all brutally killed.
As soon as the news got out, it shocked the whole of Tianhai, especially since Dragon Tiger Corporation was a large group with assets worth tens of billions.
With Peng Hu being one of the two major directors of Dragon Tiger Corporation and a well-known figure in Tianhai, his death naturally garnered attention.
Especially with the death of fifty to sixty people, the influence and impact of so many being killed were tremendously significant.
At this time, the entire Tianhai was discussing this matter, with a large number of media reporters blocking the entrance of Dragon Tiger Corporation, aiming to get some information from the company.
The Tianhai government ordered the Tianhai Police Department to launch a comprehensive investigation immediately, to clarify this extremely vile, brutal murder, and to catch the killer. Otherwise, the image of Tianhai City would suffer a great blow.
This major murder case also attracted attention from Yanjing.
In a secretive location in Yanjing, a group of people was gathered at this moment. These individuals were all elderly in their fifties or sixties, each exuding a strong sense of authority.
"Now with such big murder cases happening consecutively in Suhang and Tianhai, one wonders if there are any forces behind the scenes causing trouble!"
An elder opened the conversation first.
"First, the Feidao Sect in Suhang was bloodily purged, resulting in hundreds of deaths and creating a severely adverse impact. Now, Tianhai has seen the death of fifty to sixty people overnight, causing such a sensation. We must investigate this matter thoroughly,"
Another elder said gravely.
"According to reports from below, the perpetrator of this case seems to be a master, extremely ruthless in action and strong in ability. I suggest that we send the Black Dragon Squad to Tianhai to investigate and quickly uncover the real culprit behind the scenes to prevent any disturbance to the stability of Tianhai,"
The previous elder suggested.
All present nodded in agreement.
In Tianhai, within the mansion of Dong Xiaotian, Long Yun’s figure appeared.
At the moment, Dong Xiaotian was holding a smoking pipe, puffing away. The space in front of him was swirling with smoke, his expression somewhat grave, his eyes flickering with light.
Long Yun approached Dong Xiaotian and called out.
"Long Yun, you are here. You should be clear about the situation, right?"
Dong Xiaotian put down his smoking pipe and looked at Long Yun.
"I’m aware. I’ve also sent people to gather information. Peng Hu, including his underlings Baoyi, Bao’er, and the three top fighters of the Evil Wolf, have all been killed."
"Moreover, the Evil Wolf was actually slashed across the face numerous times, tortured to death, while the others were killed with one fatal blow. The remaining fifty or sixty people were all slain with a single move. According to our judgment, it should be the work of the same person, and this individual is very strong!"
Long Yun spoke with a solemn tone.
"To take them all out so cleanly, the culprit’s strength must at least be at the Transformative Energy Stage. But who has such deep hatred with Peng Hu to act so cruelly?"
"Peng Hu must have had a conflict with someone, otherwise he wouldn’t have gathered so many people in his villa, even preparing firearms. It seems to have been specially arranged in advance. As for who the murderer is, I will continue to investigate thoroughly."
"Mm," Dong Xiaotian nodded.
"Brother, to ensure safety, you should assign more bodyguards here."
"Are you worried that the murderer will do something to me?"
Dong Xiaotian looked at Long Yun as he spoke.
"We still don’t know the perpetrator’s motive. We must be prepared for everything."
Long Yun said in a deep voice.
In that Tianhai Hotel room, Xiao Yifeng was leaning on the sofa, fast asleep. That’s when Fang Siqi woke up. Seeing Xiao Yifeng in his deep slumber, Fang Siqi’s eyes shimmered, and a tiny smile appeared on her lips.
Slowly getting up with a blanket in hand, she approached Xiao Yifeng. Just as she was about to cover him with the blanket, Xiao Yifeng’s eyes suddenly shot open, and his hand shot out like lightning, grabbing Fang Siqi’s wrist.
Fang Siqi, who had bent down to cover Xiao Yifeng with the blanket, was taken aback by his sudden grasp, and she fell on top of him.
For a moment, both of their gazes froze, eyes locked onto each other.
After a brief pause, Fang Siqi regained her composure and hurriedly stood up, her cheeks flushing red.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was you, so..."
Xiao Yifeng began, touching his nose awkwardly.
"It’s fine. I just saw Brother Xiao asleep, and I was worried you might catch cold, so I wanted to cover you with a blanket."
Fang Siqi said quietly, her hands clasped together.
Xiao Yifeng said with a slight smile, his gaze lingering on Fang Siqi’s face. "It’s about time. Let me help you with the bandages."
