Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zou Bai had already instructed that there was no need to let Jiang An know, so Zou Yi didn’t tell Zou Er. He wasn’t someone who could hide things. It wouldn’t be good if he let it slip by Miss Jiang’s side.
Zou Er nodded after hearing that. He asked so that when Jiang An asked, he could have an answer.
Zou Yi and Zou Er were not busy at the moment. They even had time to gather for dinner at night. The Jiang family’s old residence was surrounded by three layers of people. No one could enter at all.
Zhao Yi, who was far away in the capital, was not doing so well. He was so busy that he did not even have time to stop and drink water. Zhao Yan had a terrifyingly long schedule recently, and he had to hide it from his family. He could not be discovered by Luo Xuan and the other elders.
As a result, there were not many people he could bring with him. Not all of the Zhao family’s secret guards were loyal to him, and only a small number of them had really acknowledged him as their master.
Zhao Yi had to follow him everywhere. Before going to an unfamiliar place, he had to make a lot of preparations. As the heir of the Zhao family, Zhao Yan’s security level had to be the same as the head of the family.
A small leader of the secret guards who was in charge of the periphery was called Zhao Qi. He had a good relationship with Zhao Yi and chatted with him while waiting outside. “Brother, what exactly is Master doing recently? It’s fine if he keeps going out, but he doesn’t run to the same place. He has to rearrange the protection plan every time.”
“Why are you asking so much about Master’s matters? Just do what you’re told.” Zhao Yi said.
Zhao Qi was a little unhappy. “You’re treating me as an outsider. I’ve already done things with Master for so many years. Don’t you know if I’m one of us? Hurry up and tell the truth.”
Zhao Qi was indeed not an outsider. He was someone who had grown up with Zhao Yan like Zhao Yi. He had been training with the Zhao family’s secret guards and was much stronger than Zhao Yi.
Moreover, he was the first among the Zhao family’s secret guards to pledge loyalty to Zhao Yan. He even put this matter on the table and called Zhao Yan Master in front of everyone.
This showed his attitude. If Zhao Yan failed in the future, he would no longer have the right to be loyal to his new master. It could be said that he had cut off all his paths of retreat.
Zhao Yan was also grateful for his loyalty and gave him a very high status among the secret guards. He also promised that only Zhao Yi would be above him in the future.
Zhao Yan would not hide most things from Zhao Qi. Sometimes, he could even explain a little. Only by letting his important confidants know what he was planning would they not make bad decisions.
Zhao Yi thought for a moment and said, “Master seems to have met someone incredible and wants to cooperate to deal with the Zou family. That’s why he often meets them.”
“To be able to deal with the Zou family, they must not an ordinary person.” Zhao Qi sighed. “It’s just that this meeting place is too simple.”
Zhao Qi was really disgusted. Recently, the places they had arranged to meet were all in the wilderness. Some of them could be said to be deserted. Their secret guards rarely came to such places.
“Master doesn’t want anyone to know either.” Zhao Yi said.
Zhao Qi shook his head. “The people we meet always let Master go in alone. It’s too shameful to leave after everyone else has left.”
Zhao Yi quickly covered his mouth. “Keep your voice down. He’s only doing this because he’s cautious. Don’t spout nonsense.”
Zhao Qi was good at everything but his mouth. He dared to say anything unpleasant. He had offended many people in the secret guards, but they never took this guy seriously. Anyway, the people he offended could not kill him.
Zhao Yan also knew Zhao Qi’s characteristics, but he had never interfered in such matters. It was not a bad thing that Zhao Qi had a bad relationship with others.
“Your subordinates seem to have a lot of guesses,” a foreign man in the room said in Mandarin.

Zhao Yan smiled. “They don’t know anything, so they’re naturally curious. When we can sit down and talk openly, they won’t guess anymore.”
“As long as we can complete the first half of the plan, of course we will sit with you.” The foreign man was very confident. “As long as Zou Bai dies, no one can stop us.”
Zhao Yan did not have much of a reaction after hearing this. He also hoped that Zou Bai would die, but he would not believe that anyone could do it.
That was someone he regarded as an opponent. He was definitely not a fool who could be easily killed.
Seeing that Zhao Yan was unmoved, the foreign man knew that he was waiting for him to show his trump card and prove that they could really do this. He opened the box he carried with him..
