After parting ways with Zhuge Yuheng, Jiang Feng returned ho alone, and it was already close to ten o'clock at night.
The four girls, including Nangong Qingcheng, were already anxious from waiting, and Nangong Qingcheng was even about to call Jiang Feng again.
Finally seeing him enter the door, dust-covered, the four girls relaxed and imdiately got up to greet him.
"Uncle, why did you just co back? You called Qingcheng when it was just past eight o'clock. How is it that it took you two hours to get ho?"
Chu Feifei asked with concern as she approached.
"I ran into so things on the way. I dropped Zhuge Yuheng off at ho first and then ca back."
Jiang Feng ntioned lightly, without detailing the terrifying events of the night to the four girls.
"Is Mr. Zhuge alright? Did you... completely solve the trouble?" Nangong Qingcheng asked imdiately.
Jiang Feng had gone out for the past two days, and it was only last night that he called back to assure everyone he was safe, but he didn't explain things clearly.
So, besides worrying about Jiang Feng, it was natural for them to also be concerned about Zhuge Yuheng.
"Of course, this ti I resolved the issue once and for all."
Jiang Feng said calmly, "This kidnapping of Zhuge Yuheng was by a foreign force—Fei'er should know, it's the Heigu Group from Myanmar. So I had to go overseas to rescue him."
"Heigu Group?"
Chu Feifei was very surprised, "It was them! No wonder..."
She had heard from Chu Renxiong while he was alive that the Heigu Group was a large drug trafficking group based abroad, and they had close ties with Mr. Scar of North City, one of the past three giants of Binhai.
Mr. Scar's source of drugs was provided by the Heigu Group.
Unexpectedly, so long after her father's death, the Heigu Group reached into Binhai again and captured Zhuge Yuheng!
"How is Uncle Zhuge doing now?" Chu Feifei asked again.
"Not bad. I went relatively promptly, so he was unscathed." Jiang Feng replied simply.
"That's good. I've been so worried these past two days. As long as Uncle Zhuge is fine, that's great. Tomorrow I must go see him, and, Uncle, you've really worked hard..."
Chu Feifei said with emotion.
Jiang Feng chuckled a bit, "Zhuge Yuheng is not an outsider. It was my duty to make this trip for him."
At this ti, Liu Shiyuan looked at Jiang Feng, his weary appearance, and said, "Brother Jiang, you must be very tired these two days. Quickly go shower and rest well; if there is anything, let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Yes! Once you rest tomorrow, you must tell us all about how you rescued Uncle Zhuge in Myanmar. That must have been thrilling!" Chu Feifei was already showing so anticipation, giggling.
This girl, no matter when, she always seems carefree and cheerful.
"Why do you need to know so much? It won't help you." Jiang Feng said amusedly, "You all should go rest early too; starting tomorrow, resu your normal lives without being affected by ."
Actually, Jiang Feng's initial intent was not to affect the four girls' daily studies and work, but many tis it's beyond his control, and it's really hard that they often worry about him.
Zhang Qinyao looked at Jiang Feng eagerly, wanting to say many things to him, but since Jiang Feng spoke to this extent now, she had to stop and bury her curiosity in her heart for now.
After a brief chat, Jiang Feng let the four girls return to their rooms.
Then, he sat alone on the sofa, took out his phone, and dialed a number.
As soon as Wu Feng, far away in the provincial city, answered, Jiang Feng directly asked, "What's been going on at the Qi Family these past two days?"
"Master, I've followed your instructions and kept a close eye on the Qi Family."
Wu Feng promptly replied from the other side, "Curiously, just last night, Qi ngge and the Great Housekeeper Zhou Zhengang left town overnight, heading south. However, my informants can only cover up to the provincial city; I really can't determine their whereabouts beyond that. But for sure, until now, they haven't returned."
"Heading south?"
"Yes! I was afraid of alerting them, so I didn't dare send soone to follow further—"
"I understand."
Jiang Feng sneered slightly, now he's more certain!
Tonight's events must have been Qi ngge personally mobilizing and bringing in manpower from the south to pull off that woman corpse's eerie trick on him!
But the problem is, if it really was the so-called Divine Fist Temple or a sect that can control Gu Worms that made a move, how did Qi ngge connect with them?
Is there soone else involved here?
Even more unexpected for Jiang Feng was the speed at which the opponent acted, being brought back from the south by Qi ngge, and they imdiately made a move against him tonight!
This also shows how much this Viper Lady hates him!
"Keep watching for , and if Qi ngge returns to the provincial city, let know imdiately." Jiang Feng said calmly.
"Understood!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Feng fell into contemplation.
When that woman corpse struck tonight, relying on his intuition, he had locked onto a position.
Was the perpetrator hiding on that hill, watching him secretly?
Unfortunately, at that mont he didn't go directly to check, otherwise, he might have found the mastermind on the spot!
As he was pondering this, he suddenly heard soft footsteps behind him.
Jiang Feng slled a familiar fragrance, turned around, and as expected, saw Nangong Qingcheng sneaking back downstairs.
"What's going on? Why aren't you showering yet?"
Nangong Qingcheng was still deliberately lowering her voice like before, to avoid alerting Zhang Qinyao in the room downstairs, and asked Jiang Feng.
"Just thinking about sothing. Why are you down again?" Jiang Feng asked.
"I can't sleep. Moreover, I wanted to tell you that I have prepared a bath for you in advance. Go soak in the tub; it's more relaxing than a shower." Nangong Qingcheng said softly.
Jiang Feng was startled for a mont, and instantly, the murderous thoughts in his head faded, bringing a warm feeling to his heart.
He suddenly realized that he didn't know when, but Nangong Qingcheng had beco so considerate of him.
Now, she even prepared bath water for him...
"You're really thoughtful."
Jiang Feng said moved, "But a soak isn't necessary; I'll just take a quick shower."
There is indeed a bathtub in the house.
However, it was bought specifically for Chu Feifei so she could comfortably bathe with the four girls, and Jiang Feng himself had never used it.
Nangong Qingcheng's actions tonight were also a rare exception, keeping it from Chu Feifei.
"Soaking is comfortable. I went to the trouble to prepare the bath for you after Fei'er and the others had showered and didn't notice. You don't appreciate it?"
Nangong Qingcheng threw Jiang Feng a glance and said crossly.
"Oh..."
Hearing this, Jiang Feng felt even more touched and smiled, "Alright, I'll go shortly."
"I know you're tired, and you might not want to move—why don't I co in and scrub your back later?"
Nangong Qingcheng, not knowing where the impulse ca from, suddenly suggested to Jiang Feng.
