Chapter 68 - Preparing For Rescue

Gao Residence.

Lin Feng pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

The call was picked up very quickly. Then, a female voice sounded.

There was a hint of lightness in her voice. She was obviously very happy about Lin Feng’s call.

“Lin Feng, why are you calling at this time? Do you miss me?”

“How’s the matter I asked you to investigate going?”

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Li Qingxi couldn’t help but feel uneasy. She immediately sensed that something wasn’t right.

“Did something happen?”

Lin Feng’s voice sounded as calm as usual, but the emotions contained in it were completely different.

“I’ve become an orphan. I lost my sister too.”

Li Qingxi stood up directly and asked worriedly, “What happened?”

However, Lin Feng wasn’t affected by Li Qingxi’s concern. Instead, he said disappointedly, “It seems like you didn’t find anything.”

Li Qingxi was taken aback by Lin Feng’s words. She lowered her head in shame and apologized.

“Sorry, I don’t have any leads at all.”

If what Lin Feng said was true, Li Qingxi was partly to blame for this matter.

If Li Qingxi was useful enough and found out who the mastermind was, Lin Feng wouldn’t have to face the current situation.

But Li Qingxi had indeed tried her best, so Lin Feng wouldn’t blame her.

After all, he was just an outsider to Li Qingxi.

“It’s alright. I do.”

Just as Li Qingxi was feeling guilty, Lin Feng’s voice sounded.

“I wonder if you can accept the situation whereby Cloud City has one less of the four major family clans?”

Hearing Lin Feng’s question, Li Qingxi instantly understood everything.

The one who wanted to harm Lin Feng was one of the four major family clans, and Lin Feng was going to take revenge right now.

“Lin Feng, don’t be rash. Do you know anything? I can help you.

“Where are you now? I’ll pick you up now.”

Li Qingxi asked anxiously on the other end. She knew how powerful Lin Feng was, but she didn’t think that he alone could defeat an entire ancient martial arts family.

Lin Feng didn’t respond to her as he continued, “I’ll make my move tonight. Tell your men to be ready. It’s up to you what to do with them.”

“Lin Feng, Lin Feng.”

After hanging up, Lin Feng stared coldly in a certain direction.

“Gao family, I’m coming.”

…

“Family Head.”

“Go and investigate what happened to the Lin family.”

“Yes.”

Li Qingxi fell into deep thought. Someone from the four major family clans had targeted Lin Feng.

Firstly, exclude the Li family. It is impossible that I would attack Lin Feng.

The second to be excluded is the Yuwen family. The Yuwen family doesn’t have any grudges with Lin Feng, and judging from Yuwen Yunyan’s performance today, she seems quite interested in Lin Feng.

The remaining ones are the Yuan and Gao families. The Yuan family is impossible. With Yuan Qingmeng around, there is no reason for them to attack Lin Feng either.

If it is really the Yuan family, Yuan Qingmeng would definitely interfere.

Li Qingxi’s evaluation of Yuan Qingmeng was that her ability was definitely not inferior to her own.

Therefore, with the help of the elimination method, there was only one answer, the Gao family.

Like the Yuwen family, the Gao family had no feud with Lin Feng.

Logically speaking, it was impossible that they would attack Lin Feng.

However, since Lin Feng had said so, the Gao family was the most likely candidate.

“Guards, gather everyone outside.”

Li Qingxi made a prompt decision.

“Prepare the car, we’re going to the Gao residence.”

“Yes!”

Presently, the Gao family was completely unaware of the disaster they were about to face.

But even so, they were not in a good state.

Gao Min looked at the young woman sitting opposite her with a headache.

“I apologize for my child’s foolish actions, Miss Yuwen.”

As she spoke, Gao Min signaled to her subordinates with his gaze.

Her secretary quickly handed some documents and checks to Yuwen Yunyan.

As Yuwen Yunyan was reading through the documents, Gao Min’s voice sounded in good time.

“Miss Yuwen, please forgive us this once on the account of our families’ past friendship.”

She was in a terrible condition right now. She had to endure the pain of losing her son and apologize for her already dead son.

However, she had no choice. After all, he was in the wrong first. As a family head, she had to prioritize the family clan’s interests.

After Yuwen Yunyan flipped through the documents, she nodded in her heart.

This was indeed the family head of the Gao family. She was decisive, and really willing to pay.

Obviously, Yuwen Yunyan was very satisfied with the Gao family’s compensation.

“Since Madam Gao is so sincere, if I still don’t forgive you, it would seem as if I do not know what’s good for me.”

Upon hearing Yuwen Yunyan’s words, Gao Min’s lips twitched slightly.

The other party is a junior, but we are equals in terms of status.

This inevitably makes me feel that I am already old.

Speaking of which, it has been a while since Li Qingxi of the Li family became the Li family’s family head.

At the thought of Li Qingxi, Gao Min could not help but feel melancholic.

As one of the four major families, two of the other families had already begun to relinquish their power to the next generation, while she didn’t even have a decent successor.

Gao Yalin, who had already died, had several sisters. However, very few could do what Yuwen Yunyan and Li Qingxi did.

As for Yuan Qingmeng, no one believed that they could compare to her.

As a super genius, Yuan Qingmeng’s path was different from Li Qingxi and others. There was no comparison.

As for the next generation of the Gao family, even though they had always put in a lot of effort and were also willing to put in the effort to nurture them, compared to the people from the other three families, it could be said that they were a firefly and a moon, in completely different worlds.

Otherwise, Gao Min also wanted to experience retirement in advance.

Just then, a woman walked in.

Under Yuwen Yunyan’s curious gaze, the woman leaned over to Gao Min and whispered something.

Gao Min nodded.

“I understand. Get someone to take good care of her.”

With that, Gao Min waved the woman away and smiled at Yuwen Yunyan in slight embarrassment.

She was about to say something, but Yuwen Yunyan spoke first.

“Since Madam Gao has other matters to attend to, I shall not disturb you any further.”

She had gained a lot from this trip today, so there was no need for Yuwen Yunyan to continue being an eyesore.

Hearing that Yuwen Yunyan was about to leave, Gao Min did try to keep her. She quickly stood up and smiled as she called for her subordinates to send her off.

“Alright, I won’t keep you any longer. Lai Fu, come and send Miss Yuwen home.”

In her heart, she couldn’t wait for this big trouble to leave. Although her son’s death was completely his own fault, she still blamed Yuwen Yunyan deep down.

If it wasn’t for her mismanagement that allowed Gao Yalin, that rascal, to take advantage of the loophole, this matter wouldn’t have happened today..
