Just as Jiang Feng anticipated, Huangfu Qinglong did not publicly erupt in anger when faced with him bringing Chu Feifei to break off the engagent. It wasn't because he genuinely decided to concede or aim for a peaceful resolution.
He was rely planning to settle accounts after the autumn harvest without causing a scandal for the family!
Therefore, in recent days, he ordered Hou Bo to use all ans to collect Jiang Feng's complete information, having it fully understood and ready to act later.
Although all the information about Jiang Feng before he ended up in Binhai was untraceable, this didn't prevent Huangfu Qinglong from still seeing Jiang Feng as an insignificant scoundrel!
The earth-shattering events Jiang Feng caused in Binhai were not frightening to the Huangfu Family, just re fleeting clouds!
As for Jiang Feng's terrifying martial ability, even being able to kill Binhai's once-renowned four masters, it was nothing significant, because the Huangfu Family possessed deeper martial arts foundations that, once genuinely mobilized, could surely crush Jiang Feng!
"Master, this boy ddles too much, bringing sha to the Huangfu Family. Naturally, he must pay with his life for his cri, but there's no need for us to act now..." Hou Bo said respectfully.
"Oh?" Huangfu Qinglong raised an eyebrow at these words.
"Master, you are unaware. On the day Jiang Feng caused chaos in the Huangfu Family, the young master could not swallow his pride. He secretly sent Uncle Hai to deal with him without informing you, and it was supported secretly by Madam Yan..."
"Is there such a matter? And then?" Huangfu Qinglong asked coldly.
"The result was that Uncle Hai never returned!" Hou Bo said solemnly, "As noted in the information, Jiang Feng, despite everything, had quite extraordinary skills. No wonder he was unmatched in Binhai. That was his arrogant capital..."
"Hmph, in a small place like Binhai, it's unsurprising what kind of reputation one can make. As for Uncle Hai, he was rely too old and feeble; otherwise, I wouldn't have deed him useless and sent him to protect Shang'er!"
Huangfu Qinglong sneered, "Continue!"
"After Uncle Hai's failure, the young master and Madam Yan panicked! Because they didn't consult you before acting, they dared not make a sound afterward and went overnight to the Yan Family, alarming Patriarch Yan Huxiong to stand up for them. And the Yan Family Patriarch seed to agree to secretly help the young master. Currently, the young master has gone to Binhai, contacting a local family to use them as a tool to eliminate the Jiang fellow!"
"Heh, my old family-in-law isn't too confused, knowing that such matters shouldn't be handled in their family's na and should support a puppet." Huangfu Qinglong squinted, giving a fair assessnt to his in-law, who had dealt with him for half a lifeti, with both恩 and grievances interwoven.
"Let's do this. Since Shang'er has already acted, we will stay put for now. Consider it a trial for him. I want to see clearly whether this future successor of the Huangfu Family can clean up the ss he made in Binhai by himself!"
...
anwhile, at another location.
In front of the South City Action Departnt Branch in Binhai City.
Situ Jingjie, once released from inside, was filled with intense hatred, burning with anger!
The thirty-plus plainclothes soldiers beside him also wore expressions of humiliation.
This ti was truly a disgrace; finally out for a mission, only to be invited for tea by the Action Departnt. If it wasn't for Commander Mu sparing them, their records would be thoroughly tainted.
"Situ XX, what should we do now?" a soldier asked Situ Jingjie.
"You guys head back to the unit first; I have so matters and need to go ho once." Situ Jingjie said coldly.
"Going back?" The soldier paused, then imdiately understood—Situ XX, no matter how angry, would most likely choose to let things go.
Earlier in the Action Departnt, Commander Mu Jianmin specially called them into his office, treating them with courtesy, not wanting to form a complete rift with the military. On the other hand, he also subtly revealed so hidden details about Jiang Feng to Situ Jingjie.
Through such a conversation, Situ Jingjie realized just how terrifying Jiang Feng was, sothing he had only superficially understood before!
The various sensational events recently happening in Binhai City were all related to him, and this was just the tip of the iceberg of his strength; how truly fearso he was, nobody could fathom!
So, at this mont, Situ Jingjie deeply regretted!
If he had the power of foresight, he should have focused all his efforts on uncovering Jiang Feng's background in the first place, rather than persistently seeing him as a thorn in his side and obstructing his matters with his sister, Situ Yan!
He shouldn't have, from the beginning, just followed the Old Man's arrangents, insisting that Situ Yan must ally with the He Family through marriage, thereby losing a better brother-in-law option, regretting it too late!
Having to return ho now, he intended to consult carefully with the Old Man and his family, to tell his grandpa about all the extraordinary aspects of Jiang Feng and plead for him to reevaluate and decide anew!
The soldier saw Situ Jingjie's depression and intentionally reminded him, "Situ XX, you heard what Commander Mu said earlier inside; you must not hold any grudges against that Jiang fellow, or you will get into big trouble..."
"I know, don't worry, I won't do anything foolish again." Situ Jingjie said faintly.
Jiang Feng, whether he could be compared to climbing the He Family was uncertain, but he believed that if he truly had Jiang Feng as a brother-in-law, the entire Situ Family would have confidence in the future, basking in his glory, and it might lead to fa and prosperity, you never know!
However, this was just Situ Jingjie's wishful thinking after the fact, whether it could be realized was unknown, since Jiang Feng was already a married man, posing a dilemma as his sister could only at best be a mistress!
"Now I finally understand why Situ Yan, knowing Jiang had an engagent, was still willing to get involved with him..."
Although Situ Jingjie couldn't quite fathom why soone with Jiang Feng's abilities would lower himself to marry into a small family like the Nangong Family.
But presumably, Jiang Feng had his reasons, sothing a re common person like Situ Jingjie couldn't speculate about.
He was now just angry at his sister, who clearly knew everything yet kept it hidden from them, watching the family make foolish mistakes!
Disgruntled, he sent away his subordinates and drove an off-road vehicle by himself, quickly heading to the old residence of the Situ Family.
He didn't know the current situation at ho—after Situ Yan managed himself, she and Jiang Feng returned to the old residence, causing what kind of stir?
He could only pray in his heart that grandpa and the others wouldn't tear with Jiang Feng; otherwise, it would be all loss and gain, repentance without end!!
