“Yes…” Lin Long nodded. Although the Sikong family was known as one of the seven great families of Linhai City, it had long lost its former prestige. Especially now, it was a young girl who had to handle all the big and small matters. Given the current status of the Nanlong Gang, they would not care. If it were a direct descendant of the Sikong family, they might show mercy, but it was his sworn brother’s grandson. So killing him was no big deal. With the current power of the Sikong family, they would not turn against the Nanlong Gang for an outsider, would they?

　　The Nanlong Gang has lost face so badly this time. If they don’t get it back, they will really have a hard time moving forward in the future. You have to understand that the Nanlong Gang was able to stand firm in the chaotic Linhai City because of its ruthlessness. Without a strong government backing, if they lose even that ruthlessness, then the gangs that have been eyeing them will definitely take action with all their might.

　　Just as Lin Long was about to turn around and make arrangements, a hunched old man hurriedly walked in and came to Liu Tiannan’s side. Upon seeing the old man, even someone as powerful as Lin Long respectfully bowed to him and said, “Uncle Qi!”

　　”Hmm,” the person nodded, acknowledging Lin Long’s response, and then said directly to Liu Tiannan, “Master, Miss brought a man home tonight…”

　　”What?”

　　Not to mention Liu Tiannan, even Lin Long standing to the side was dumbfounded. Since that person died, Liu Qin had never had any interaction with any man over the years. How could she suddenly bring a man home?

　　”The guys around the young lady’s apartment noticed that she brought a man home last night, and he hasn’t come out since…” The old man, referred to as Uncle Qi, repeated.

　　”Do you have a photo of that man…” Liu Tiannan asked quickly, whether out of excitement or some other reason.

　　His daughter was getting on in years and it was time for her to get married, but he knew that what happened back then had left a deep shadow in her heart. Now he was very curious about which man had such great ability to bring his daughter home. His daughter’s home was one that even he himself wouldn’t allow to go.

　　His excitement was mixed with curiosity, and his curiosity was tinged with a hint of judgment. He wanted to see who was so capable as to seduce his daughter.

　　“Yes…” Uncle Qi nodded, quickly took out his phone, opened the photo album, and handed it to Liu Tiannan. “A brother just happened to take a picture of them going in together…”

　　Liu Tiannan took the photo and saw a rather handsome young man entering the apartment with his daughter. When he saw the young man’s face clearly, Liu Tiannan’s face showed a strange expression, and he even let out a surprised sound.

　　”What’s wrong, Master (Master Nan)!” Uncle Qi and Lin Long asked at the same time.

　　”Look for yourselves… (percentage sign)” Liu Tiannan handed the photos from the documents in his hand and the photos on his phone to the two men. When they saw them, they realized it was the same person. Before Uncle Qi could even understand what was going on, Lin Long exclaimed, “How could it be him?”

　　“Interesting, really interesting. Uncle Qi, tell Qin’er to come back and have dinner with me… and tell her to bring her little boyfriend along…” Liu Tiannan snorted, whether out of anger or spite, it was hard to tell.

　　”What’s wrong with you, sir?” Uncle Qi asked in surprise, sensing Liu Tiannan’s extraordinary nature.

　　Lin Long gave a wry smile and quickly recounted what had happened that night. When Uncle Qi heard that the kid in the photo had actually taken down more than a hundred brothers of the Southern Dragon Gang, his eyes widened in disbelief. Then, as if remembering something, he gave another wry smile.

　　”Don’t get involved in this matter. Let Miss explain to Master herself tonight…” After saying that, Uncle Qi shook his head and chased after Liu Tiannan.

　　Lin Long shook his head with a wry smile, then put away the documents and tore them to shreds. This situation was getting increasingly murky…

　　…

　　Ye Fan was naturally unaware that he had been invited to a banquet by Liu Tiannan, the leader of the Nanlong Gang, one of the three major gangs in Linhai City. He was so tormented, both physically and mentally, that he didn’t fall asleep until three or four in the morning. When he woke up in the morning, his phone rang and he answered it groggily. His aunt’s furious voice came from the other end: “You brat, I just told you not to come back tonight, and you actually dared not to come back? Tell me, where are you now?”

　　”Uh, Auntie, I don’t know where I am right now. I’ve been kidnapped…” Ye Fan, still half asleep, suddenly woke up.

　　”Kidnapping? Hmph, do you think I’m a three-year-old? You’re still answering the phone and sleeping so soundly even though you’ve been kidnapped? Tell me, which girl kidnapped you?”

　　”Hehe, I’ll bring it back next time and Auntie will know. Oh dear, class is about to start, Auntie, I have to go now, I’m getting up for school…” Ye Fan said, then hung up the phone and patted his chest hard. Damn it, when did Auntie become so smart? She actually knows that he’s been kidnapped by a woman?

　　Thinking about how Liu Qin had tricked him into coming here, wasn’t he just being kidnapped?

　　Hey, where’s Liuqin?

　　Realizing this, Ye Fan discovered that he was alone on the large bed. The sun was already shining through the window, but Liu Qin was nowhere to be seen. He quickly got up and headed for the door…

　　However, just as he got up, he saw Liu Qin, wearing a black T-shirt and black skinny jeans, push open the door and walk in…

　　Ye Fan gasped in surprise and immediately ran back to bed, pulling the blanket over himself as he realized he wasn’t wearing anything…

　　Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Sikong Yanran, who was already sitting in her office, heard the “beep beep beep” sound from the phone and immediately gave a bitter smile. This little rascal dared to hang up on me. Just wait until I get home and I’ll deal with him. But thinking that Ye Fan was with another woman last night, she felt a pang of jealousy for some reason.

　　What’s wrong with me?

　　Could it be that I’m jealous?

　　Impossible. Why would I be jealous? I’m just worried that this kid is messing around outside, right?

　　Shaking her head, Sikong Yanran banished these thoughts from her mind and began her new day’s work…
