âWhy?â Zhou Hengguang asked in confusion. âHe had earned countless honours, but his children are kept in the dark.â
However, Zhou Hengguang soon realized he had taken things for granted.
There must have been a reason for Su Xuewenâs arrangements.
He couldnât believe such a talented person would make a foolish decision.
Zhou Hengyangâs voice came faintly through the phone. âThe situation is very complicated. Itâs not something that can be explained in a few words.â
Despite Su Xuewenâs extensive experience working outside and his childrenâs free-range upbringing, he knew his daughters very well. Initially, they could have been properly nurtured without worrying about their potential.
Unfortunately, he had made enemies. With no time to properly nurture his daughters, he risked implicating them as well.
Su Wen had that kind of personalityâimpatient and vain. Once she discovered her potential, not only would her enemies come for her, but her personality might also cause trouble for herself and her sisters.
It seemed better to live a peaceful life.
As long as she could heed his dying words and live a good life with Zhou Hengyang, she wouldnât have to worry.
Su Xuewen kept his work in the capital a secret to protect them. Villagers assumed he earned good money, but they couldnât fathom its extent.
Su Xuewen didnât say a word, nor did he allow Zhou Hengyang to speak. He only wished for his daughters to live peacefully, unlike him, who had fought against the heavens with his pride and talent, only to end up in misery.
In short, Su Xuewenâs achievements, status, and the enemies he had made were too formidable.
The Su sisters couldnât handle it.
âAlright then! If you donât want to tell me, I wonât ask,â Zhou Hengguang said helplessly. Just as he was about to hang up, Xu Xiaoxiao snatched the phone.
âWhereâs Liu Chun? I heard he went missing in the northwest. Have you found him?â As Liu Chunâs best friend, Xu Xiaoxiao missed him dearly. âDo you need my help?â
âNot yet,â Zhou Hengyang replied. Xu Xiaoxiaoâs expression turned serious upon hearing this. âHow are you holding up?â
âItâs more complicated than expected.â
âIn whose hands? Any leads?â Xu Xiaoxiaoâs lips curled into a mischievous smile. âAnyone who dares to harm my people is asking for death. Iâll come after tomorrowâs banquet. Iâll make sure those b*stards pay for what theyâve done.â
âYou donât have to come,â Zhou Hengyang replied coldly. âWe already have a lead. The attack is imminent. Those responsible will pay the price for what Liu Chun has endured.â There was a hint of ruthlessness in his tone.
Feng Yanze looked at Zhou Hengguang thoughtfully. He had heard of Zhou Hengyangâs reputation but had never interacted with him. From his tone, he knew that Zhou Hengyang was far more than the rumours suggested.
There was a reason why he could keep Zhou Hengguang and Xu Xiaoxiao under control for so many years.
After a brief discussion about work, Xu Xiaoxiao ended the call. He still had matters to attend to, so he departed swiftly..
