According to Fu Haiwen’s meaning, there’s no need to consult with Qingyu; they only need to follow the arrangements. However, Mrs. Hou still decides to consult with Beisitian, thinking the old lady’s move is redundant. Fu Haiwen then went to find You Mingxiang from the Xunyue School for consultation; this woman is also quite challenging.
Beisitian listened to Mrs. Hou and immediately nodded in agreement. This left Mrs. Hou, who had prepared everything to say, feeling like she’d hit cotton. She looked at Beisitian, this woman is very young, but from initial contact until now, she always gives people a sense of inscrutability—wise and sensible, calm and composed. To agree so quickly, does she have such reliance?
Beisitian certainly has reliance. As this matter has developed to this point, Luo Yirui must make this trip. Unlike the Hou Family and Fu Family, who pin all hopes on their children, Beisitian wouldn’t let Luo Yirui go no matter what.
But now it’s different; on that morning, Luo Xudong sent a message that, with most of the maps provided by Luo Yirui, he had already engaged in deployment. By the end of this day and night, it was mostly completed, and he even has insiders involved, more than one!
What Luo Yirui needs to do now is to transmit information from places Luo Xudong and the other adults can’t enter. The rest of the work he basically doesn’t need to do; danger certainly exists but is relatively reduced.
"Coordinate with You Hong’an’s actions. If there is a disagreement between you and You Hong’an, follow You Hong’an’s decisions as the operational guidelines!" Beisitian solemnly told Luo Yirui.
Luo Yirui nodded; since mother said so, he would do it.
That evening, Little Fatty came to find Luo Yirui excitedly, he chuckled, "I told you, only my Brother Pang can handle this!"
Luo Yirui glanced at him, "You know about Hou Baiyu and Fu Xuan Ge’s situation, right? This matter isn’t simple; it’s not as easy as our last time, just scouting."
Upon hearing this, Little Fatty restrained himself somewhat; even Hou Baiyu was in trouble, he really couldn’t guarantee his own safety. The main issue was, if something happened to him, people like You Mingxiang wouldn’t be as anxious as the Hou Family.
"Everything needs to be cautious," Luo Yirui said.
Little Fatty nodded, "You have experience, I’ll listen to you."
The two climbed out of the window, entered through a passage they discovered, heading towards the paths of Hou Baiyu and Fu Xuan Ge.
On the third floor, in a room with the lights off, Gong Yunfei watched two small silhouettes climb in through the window, resting her chin on her hand, she said, "Brother, are we not doing anything?"
Gong Chengyan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the sleeping Jing Yuansi, and said faintly, "Our lineage’s situation within the school is quite awkward right now. What we need to do is protect Yuanxi, find Xue Tong and Changle who are wandering outside, and as for the rest, we are powerless and can only spectate."
Upon hearing these two names, Gong Yunfei turned around, "Sister Xue Tong... she was already seriously injured when she left, and was pregnant. Could she...could she safely give birth to Changle?"
Gong Chengyan narrowed his eyes full of coldness and said, "The Nie Family is truly extremely vicious; they know that this child of Xue Tong is the culmination of Peng Pavilion over the past century, yet they still didn’t hesitate to persecute Xue Tong, who is the legitimate line of the Nie Family!"
Gong Yunfei sneered, "How could the Nie Family not act? If Sister Xue Tong successfully gives birth to Changle, it would pose too much of a threat to the Nie Family’s future status. Didn’t we also consider this point at that time, which is why the heavy responsibility fell on Sister Xue Tong?"
