”What could possibly be the problem?”

Xue Bing glanced at Huang Feiyu, casually saying, ”Even if the sky falls, someone tall will hold it up, so what are you worrying about? Besides, if something really happens, we would be the first to deal with it, right? We are here to protect your Huang Family. The opponent is targeting your Huang Family to draw us in. Once they see us, do you think they would still focus on you instead of us?”

Upon hearing Xue Bing’s words, Huang Feiyu couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile and said, ”Miss Xue, you’re right. Maybe I’m just overthinking.”

Even though he said that, Huang Feiyu’s heart did not settle down. Instead, his sense of unease intensified and he couldn’t shake it off.

”You definitely are overthinking, otherwise, why would you be like this? Besides, there’s still a day left before the three days are up. What could happen? And didn’t I tell you before? Since Tianxing sent me to Xiangjiang, there must be a solution. You don’t have to worry; just follow my arrangements and I guarantee the Huang Family will be safe.”

Xue Bing looked confidently at Huang Feiyu and said, ”And besides, you’re pacing back and forth in front of me; do you know how annoying that is? If you keep it up, I might just smack you dead.”

In the two days Xue Bing had spent in Xiangjiang, nothing much had happened, but Huang Feiyu was constantly chattering in her ear, driving her crazy.

Moreover, according to Huang Feiyu, those who broke into the Huang Family seemed like terrifying beasts, incredibly fierce and ruthless, not people easily handled. Xue Bing was at a loss for words. If it weren’t for Lu Tianxing’s request, she might have left already.

After all, by her nature, she feared nothing. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone after a criminal out of her league alone, just to join the Yanhuang Group.

Actually, Huang Feiyu’s constant worrying wasn’t entirely his fault. Growing up in the Huang Family, a large family, meant that they had to consider every move very carefully, calculating every eventuality, making every step a strategic one. Huang Feiyu, having been raised in such an environment, naturally developed a habit of thinking three steps ahead and being overly cautious. This was one reason why Lu Tianxing was reluctant to form a close bond with him. Although Feiyu used to like racing, deep down he remained a Huang Family person, the future Family Head, groomed for this role with a focus on family over friendship.

Nevertheless, Huang Feiyu’s cautiousness wasn’t without reason. The hardest thing to predict in this world is the human heart. Although the opponent promised to act in three days, who knows if they might strike earlier? This is entirely within the realm of possibility.

There’s an old saying that history is written by the victors. If the Huang Family were to be destroyed, it would truly be the end, leaving nothing behind.

That’s why Huang Feiyu couldn’t help but worry, facing everything with such caution, afraid that one wrong step could ruin the Huang Family.

...

At the same time, in another villa of the Huang Family in Shallow Bay.

Huang Yuanzheng sat on the sofa in the living room.

At this moment, Huang Yuanzheng’s face bore a hint of unmistakable anxiety. His mood was much like Huang Feiyu’s, overshadowed by dark clouds, as though a storm was about to break, a choking sensation pressing on his heart, making him feel extremely oppressed.

”Snap!”

Huang Yuanzheng lit a cigarette for himself and took a deep drag.

The smoke circled around Huang Yuanzheng’s face, making his expression appear blurry under the light, yet the look of regret on his face was clearly visible.

Yes, a look of regret.

The last two days could be described as the most trying time for the Huang Family, especially when recalling the words left by the three who broke into the Huang Family earlier. Huang Yuanzheng couldn’t find any peace of mind, even though Yama Palace had sent people to Xiangjiang. He still felt no sense of security. Even during these past two days, Huang Yuanzheng constantly wondered whether, if the Huang Family had not joined Yama Palace, they would have avoided this situation, or if they left Yama Palace, would their adversary spare the Huang Family?

Such thoughts swirled in his mind, leaving Huang Yuanzheng somewhat at a loss. But he was also quite aware that there was no remedy for regret in this world. The Huang Family had already joined Yama Palace, received benefits from them, and must now follow them to the end, with no option to retreat.

As for leaving Yama Palace, while Huang Yuanzheng had thought about it, he never dared to act on it even slightly.

Not because Huang Yuanzheng was unwilling to let go of the Huang Family’s current power, but because he was too afraid. Despite how well Huang Feiyu and Lu Tianxing knew each other, if the Huang Family declared their departure from Yama Palace, they would certainly suffer destructive retaliation from Yama Palace.

Perhaps Lu Tianxing would ultimately spare the Huang Family out of respect for his acquaintance with Huang Feiyu, but from then on, the Huang Family would be just an ordinary family with no chance to rise again, a result the Huang Family never wanted to see. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have joined Yama Palace in the first place.

Various thoughts rolled through Huang Yuanzheng’s mind. Then, raising his hand again, he took a harsh drag from the cigarette, slowly exhaling, a flash of decisiveness crossing his face. His voice was low as he said, ”Since we can’t back out, I’ll gamble this once. Let’s see if we can win this time. Yama Palace, Third Young Master of Lu Family, everything for our Huang Family rests on you. You must hold them off.”

The room remained silent; no one responded. Only Huang Yuanzheng’s low voice echoed through the living room.

”Thump!” ”Thump!” ”Thump!”

Time ticked away, perhaps a few minutes, maybe an hour, when suddenly the sound of heavy footsteps approached and echoed in the living room.

Hearing the footsteps, Huang Yuanzheng, lost in thought, snapped back to reality, lifting his head to look toward the direction the sound was coming from.
