586: Chapter 586: Han Family!
Zhou Yu had returned to Yancheng, and it was already the afternoon.
He arrived with a gift, heading straight for Bencao Tang.
There were no patients at Bencao Tang today, and upon reaching the backyard, Zhou Yu imdiately saw Li Shuangshuang busying herself with herbs.
“Shuangshuang.”
Zhou Yu smiled.
Li Shuangshuang looked up and the mont she saw Zhou Yu, a delighted smile burst onto her pretty face.
“Zhou Yu, you’re back so early.”
Li Shuangshuang ran over, her large eyes brimming with happiness.
Zhou Yu smiled and nodded.
“Where’s Elder Li?”
Li Shuangshuang shrugged her shoulders.
“Grandpa went out to see patients early this morning.”
“He didn’t say when he would be back.”
“But he knows it’s my birthday today, so he’ll probably be back soon.”
Zhou Yu nodded.
He then took out the gift box and smiled.
“Shuangshuang, happy birthday, this is the present I brought for you.”
Upon seeing the gift Zhou Yu handed over, a wide smile spread across Li Shuangshuang’s face.
“Wow, a present too.”
Li Shuangshuang joyfully accepted the gift, and then, she suddenly jumped up and kissed Zhou Yu on the face.
“Zhou Yu, thank you!”
The sudden kiss struck Zhou Yu like an electric shock.
He stood frozen in place.
anwhile, Li Shuangshuang had already started unwrapping the gift.
Just then, suddenly, three Bentleys rushed to Bencao Tang and stopped at the entrance.
Imdiately after, more than ten people descended from the three cars and strode in.
These individuals, all suited and booted with well-proportioned figures and distinguished deanors, clearly were people of significant stature.
Zhou Yu turned to look at this group of people at once.
With a sweep of his Divine Sense, his expression imdiately showed surprise.
The capabilities of these people were not to be underestimated; though there were only about a dozen of them, their strength could rival any of the seven major families in Qin Province City and could easily overpower all the forces in Yancheng, including the Martial Cabinet.
Among these people, there was one Saint Realm expert, and five at the peak of the Innate Realm.
Zhou Yu realized instantly that these people could not be from Qin Province.
At this mont, Li Shuangshuang, who was about to unwrap the gift, also stopped due to the sudden intrusion.
Though not a martial artist herself, she could feel the stern coldness emanating from these people.
The leader of this group was a man in his thirties.
Upon entering, his gaze locked onto Li Shuangshuang.
His eyes road up and down, and when his gaze swept over Li Shuangshuang’s figure, it lingered for a long while before he showed a satisfied expression.
As a woman, Li Shuangshuang was particularly sensitive to such malicious glances.
She got scared and moved closer to Zhou Yu, asking nervously,
“You… are you here to see a doctor?”
The leading young man sneered with an arrogant expression, speaking lightly,
“So you are Li Shuangshuang.”
“You know ?”
Shocked, Li Shuangshuang realized this young man had called her by na, yet she had no recollection of these people.
“No.”
The young man snorted coldly.
“That old man Li De’an indeed didn’t ntion us to you, but it seems he has raised you well enough to be presentable.”
“Rember my na, I’m Han Mingjie, and strictly speaking, I’m your cousin.”
“I’ve co to Yancheng today to take you back to the Han Family in Shanghai City.”
“Let’s go.”
Li Shuangshuang could never have expected a cousin to suddenly appear.
She had been raised by her grandfather since her earliest mory.
She never t her biological family, and of course, she asked Li De’an, who always responded in silence.
Li Shuangshuang could sense the sorrow in Li De’an’s heart.
To avoid saddening her grandfather, she hadn’t pressed the issue.
So, she knew nothing of her own background.
Now, suddenly, soone claiming to be her cousin appeared, wanting to take her away.
Naturally, she was unwilling.
“I’m not going.”
“I’m waiting for my grandfather to co back.”
Han Mingjie sneered.
“That old thing has already been captured by us.
If you dare disobey, I’ll chop off one of his arms first and send it to you.”
Upon hearing this, Li Shuangshuang instantly turned deathly pale with fright.
She was both shocked and angry.
“You…
you’ve captured my grandfather?”
“What right do you have to abduct people!!!”
“Release my grandfather imdiately!”
Li Shuangshuang’s pretty face turned ghostly white, tears beginning to swirl in her eyes.
“Don’t be delusional.”
“You now have two choices.”
“One is to co with willingly.”
“The second is, I’ll mutilate that old man, and then I’ll take you by force.”
“Make your choice.”
Han Mingjie’s face was filled with a cold smirk.
“You…”
Li Shuangshuang trembled, her face ashen.
At that mont, a pair of hands embraced Li Shuangshuang’s slender shoulders.
It was Zhou Yu, who had been silent till then.
Zhou Yu hugged Li Shuangshuang, staring into her eyes.
“Shuangshuang, don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
“Rest assured, I won’t let anything happen to Elder Li.”
Li Shuangshuang couldn’t hold back her tears any longer; large teardrops slid down her cheeks.
“Zhou Yu, you must save my grandfather.”
Zhou Yu nodded.
“I will.”
Han Mingjie had noticed Zhou Yu upon his arrival.
However, he had chosen to ignore him.
In his view, it was impressive enough that this young man wasn’t scared senseless by their presence.
But to his surprise, this young man even dared to intervene.
He imdiately scolded,
“Kid, if you don’t want to die, get lost.”
Zhou Yu gently patted Li Shuangshuang’s back, and then, slowly turned around.
“I give you a half-hour to bring Elder Li back.”
“If there’s a single hair missing from him, I will make you pay tenfold.”
Han Mingjie hadn’t expected Zhou Yu not only to show no fear but even to talk big.
He sneered.
“Looking for death.”
“Get rid of him.”
The mont Han Mingjie’s words fell, two of his subordinates at the pinnacle of the Refined Strength stage sneered and charged towards Zhou Yu.
