Chen Tao was dumbstruck. It took him a while to recover and urgently say, “Young Master! You must leave immediately! Use our own channels and leave immediately! Leave the old master to me. I’ll definitely bring Old Master Lan back!”

“Ivan, stop the car! Turn the car around and take Young Master away from here!” Chen Tao instructed the chauffeur. With the screeching of brakes, the car came to a halt, and the chauffeur, Ivan, looked towards the back seats in slight panic.

Lan Long lightly shook his head. “Grandpa won’t go with you. I’ll go. I have to face this eventually! Chen Tao, get out of the car and use our channels to leave. I’m afraid Mr. Lou and I won’t be able to get off the hook. The rest is up to you now!”

“No, I can’t! Young Master! You go! I’ll go save the old master. I’ll get the old master back even if I have to carry him over my back! Young Master, we can’t lose you!” Chen Tao said anxiously.

Lan Long cast his gaze out the window and smiled slightly, “Grandpa’s too old to endure such rigor. We’re still young; as long as we’re alive, there’s hope. Moreover, I also want to meet Yun Nan. If only I had met Yun Nan in the beginning!”

Chen Tao didn’t know how to respond to that. ‘We’d chased after Xiang Yang all the way here, but in the end, Young Master fell in love with Yun Nan.’ He was a boorish man and didn’t know what it meant to “regret not having gotten to know a love interest before they were married,” but… ‘Young Master didn’t manage to make Xiang Yang stay even when she was unmarried back then.’

‘Why would such a fine person suffer feelings for a woman? Isn’t it better to earn money instead?’ Chen Tao really didn’t know how to persuade Lan Long. Without Mr. Lou around, there was no way to get the young master and him on the same wavelength.

Lan Long snapped back to his senses and stated coldly, “Get out of the car! That’s an order! Take over our operation and come save Mr. Lou and I when you’re safe and secure. That’s your mission! Go, and don’t look back!”

The Shi family’s villa by the sea was the only one in the area; the entire place was their private property. It was surrounded by mountains and the sea, making it very defensible and hard to access. Looking at the residence, Lan Long’s heart sank before he even got out of the car. ‘I still underestimated the Shi brothers…’ he thought. ‘But so what? There’s no turning back for me.’

White Tiger, Dragon, and Gray Wolf stood upright at the gates, dressed in combat uniforms, and watched as Lan Long’s five cars stopped before them, expressions unchanged. This place was wide and flat, completely without any cover; there wasn’t even a spot for Lan Long’s men to set up an ambush. Whereas the villa behind them had cover, natural or otherwise. Once an enemy entered their shooting range, there was no way to escape.

Lan Long composedly got out of the car and waved at the back. The door of the last car at the back opened, and screams rang out. White Tiger and the others looked at each other, expressions dark.

Lan Long lightly smiled and said, “These three are Miss Fang Xi’s family members. I wish to use them to exchange for my grandfather. Will that be acceptable?”

“Fang Xi!” Xi Yue screamed when she heard that. “You jinx! Look what you’ve gotten us into!” Unfortunately, no one was listening to her.

White Tiger hesitated for a moment before tossing a phone over. Lan Long caught it, and his expression immediately froze when his eyes fixed on it. On the screen, Grandpa and Xiang Yang were sitting opposite each other. Xiang Yang was tenderly feeding Grandpa, and Grandpa was stroking Xiang Yang’s head with a cheery smile. The scene was so heartwarming that one could cry.

Lan Long raised his head and saw Shi Ke, Shi Nian, and Yun Nan walking over from the main door. Yun Nan’s gaze fell on the screaming and crying Xi Yue and her stepdaughters. Lan Long shook his head towards the back. Something was immediately stuffed into the three women’s mouths, and the scene quieted down.

There was the faint sound of police sirens in the distance. “Stop resisting,” Shi Ke said calmly. “Your organization has already collapsed.”

Lan Long narrowed his eyes and replied equally as calmly, “Don’t be so sure. If it weren’t for my personal matters, your losses and the Shi family’s losses would be very heavy. You guys should thank your lucky stars for marrying good wives! Xiang Yang’s my first love; I found you guys because of her! As for Yun Nan…”

He looked towards Yun Nan and continued, “I like you! Just like how I liked Xiang Yang back then, it’s the kind of love that is till death!” His voice was extremely tender as he stared at Yun Nan affectionately.

“That is Xiang Yang and I’s misfortune,” Yun Nan said detachedly.

Lan Long looked away with great reluctance and sighed softly, “If Xiang Yang could remain unchanged, even if I’d truly died back then, I would’ve been willing. It was only when I met you that I realized that the woman I truly liked was you, Yun Nan! Although it’s a little late now, it doesn’t matter. I’m confident that I can rise back again, and I won’t let you become my second Xiang Yang!”

The police sirens blared. Lan Long gestured to his subordinates not to act rashly before saying to Yun Nan, “Yun Nan, thank you for taking care of my grandfather for me. He’s happier with Xiang Yang than with me! Help me tell Shi Xiu that she’s a fine woman, but my heart already belongs to someone else! I’m sorry!”

White Tiger and his two teammates felt bummed as they watched the police car leave with Lan Long. The guy who’d stirred up the entire Rong City had been caught just like that; the guy still looked arrogant and calm even when he got into the police car. It was really annoying.

Shi Nian read the trio’s minds. He held Yun Nan’s hand and gently massaged it before lightly stating, “Perhaps this is just the beginning. If he escapes, we will fight him again. We’re ready anytime.”

Things have ended, at least for now!
