  "Do they have reinforcements outside?" Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but feel some fear. If these people had entered half a moment earlier and trapped him on the second floor, then he would truly be in a desperate situation with no way out.

  With Xiao Qing, carefully avoiding the group of black-clad men, they exited the ballroom door.

  When Xiaoyu breathed in the fresh air outside, a feeling of escaping death arose from the bottom of his heart. He looked at Xiaoqing beside him and felt a wave of emotion. If it weren't for Xiaoqing, he would have definitely died under Chen Hong's hands today. But how did Xiaoqing know that he would come here?

  "Xiao Qing, were you hurt just now?" Xiao Yu asked anxiously.

  Xiao Qing's face turned red, and she slightly shook her head. Even now, Xiao Yu was still holding onto her arm. If it were someone else, she would have already stabbed them with a spear. But facing Xiao Yu, she just couldn't bring herself to be cruel.

  "Xiao Yu! Over here!" A familiar voice rang out from a short distance away.

  Xiao Yu turned his head and saw Feng Yong's figure appearing in his line of sight, and suddenly came to his senses. The person who had secretly lent a hand just now must have been him!

  Xiao Qing and Xiao Yu came to Feng Yong's side together. Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Feng, how did you get here?"

  Seeing Feng Yong, he was surprised and a little astonished. He hadn't revealed to Feng Yong on the phone that he would be coming to 'Hongmei Dance Hall' tonight, so how did he arrive at his most critical moment?

  "Don't ask so many questions, come with me quickly, my car is parked in the alley next door."

  Feng Yong was obviously much more experienced than Xiao Yu. The three of them were still on the Black Dragon Association's turf and hadn't escaped danger yet. If the people inside chased after them, the situation would become dire.

  The three of them quickened their pace for a few steps, when Xiaoyu's gaze suddenly fell on the two cars across the street, and his heart skipped a beat as he stopped in his tracks.

  "Xiao Yu, what's wrong? Hurry up! The people from Fei Ying Tang will be out soon!" Feng Yong urged.

  "Uncle Feng, go get the car first. I and Xiao Qing still have some things to take care of. Don't worry, it won't delay much time!" Xiaoyu looked at the two Toyota commercial vehicles parked on the opposite side of the road, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

  In the ballroom.

  Chen Hong and the remaining Flying Eagle Hall assassins hid behind the railing for a while, feeling that there were no more bullets coming up from below, the ambusher should have left, so they plucked up their courage and rushed hastily to the stairwell.

  Just as I reached the staircase entrance, I almost bumped into another group of black-clad men coming down from the stairs.

  "Fierce and crazy, how did you get in?" Chen Hong looked at the tall black-clothed man leading the way and the group of Feiying Tang assassins behind him, feeling a sense of unease.

  Today is the day when Heilong collects money from each branch, and to be on the safe side, Chen Hong specially brought two groups of people to escort the car. Wei Jimale's 'Hongmei' branch was the last stop.

  To ensure that nothing went wrong, Chen Hong did not bring everyone in, but left a group of people outside to let Feng Kuang, the leader of the Flying Eagle Hall who came with him, guard the armored car.

  Now Fēng Kuáng is leading people in, so isn't the armored car outside left unattended?

  Feng Kuang - One of the top killers of Fei Ying Tang, group leader, height 183cm. Skilled in chaotic wind knife technique and cultivates 'Crazy Wind' inner strength mind method. He is a high-ranking martial artist recruited by Hei Long Hui after Chen Hong's release from prison.

  Feng Kuang was there and replied, "I saw Brother Hong go in for a while without coming out. I just thought of sending a brother to take a look when I heard the sound of gunfire inside. My heart was anxious, so I left two brothers to watch the car and rushed in with my men!"

  "Oh no!" Chen Hong's heart suddenly burned with anxiety, today in this battle he didn't even hurt a single hair of the enemy, yet so many people died, if the armored car was robbed again by the enemy, then he would truly be ashamed to face Long Fei.

  Now he could only pray that the other side was in a hurry to escape and neglected the armored car on the side of the road.

  Chen Hong hastily led all his men out of the ballroom and rushed to the two Toyota commercial vehicles on the opposite side of the road.

  The door of the first car was opened, and two corpses of bronze medal killers were found lying in a pool of blood. One had his head smashed to pieces, while the other had been stabbed through the temple.

  From the appearance of the two corpses, it can be seen that they were killed by someone using a method as swift as lightning, without even having time to draw their guns.

  The two money boxes originally placed in the car had long since vanished into thin air.

  Chen Hong was furious! He had said all he wanted to say in front of Long Fei, but now it seemed that not only had he failed to capture his opponent, but he had also lost his wife and suffered a defeat!

  Feng Kuang looked at the situation in the car and knew he had made a mistake, feeling somewhat guilty towards Chen Hong, "Hong Ge, I...I, ah! It's all my fault, we fell into the enemy's trap!"

  Chen Hong sighed, patted the shoulder of Feng Kuang and said, "Brother, this is not your fault. The enemy was too cunning. Today we can be considered to have fallen!"

  Chen Hong also had his own thoughts, Feng Kuang was kind-hearted and worried that he would lose face, so he came to help him. If he were to scold him in front of everyone, it would make him appear petty. He was a top-notch expert he had recruited himself, so he had to give him some face, only then could he let him devote himself wholeheartedly to his cause.

  The most urgent matter is that in tonight's battle, nine assassins from the Flying Eagle Hall were killed on our side, and many more were injured. Among the dead assassins are two Silver Badge Assassins, which can be said to be a huge loss.

  At this time, a small hooligan from the Hongmeng faction rushed out of the ballroom in a panic, shouting "Hóng Gē! Hóng Gē! Something's happened!"

  Chen Hong furrowed his brow and cursed under his breath. Today's events weren't enough already?

  He slapped the little rascal and said, "What's wrong with you? Speak properly!"

  That little rascal was slapped in the face, but instead of getting angry, he calmed down and told Chen Hong, "Our... our Wei Zhu's master was killed by someone, died a terrible death, his head was twisted off, and only a layer of skin connected it to his body. That person also killed more than ten people from our Red Plum faction!"

  "Damn it, I'm so angry!" Chen Hong flew up with a slap and heavily slapped the little hooligan's head. A flash of gold light appeared, and before the little hooligan could even let out a miserable cry, he fell softly to the ground, apparently dead.

  The Jeep sped across the road.

  Feng Yong looked through the rearview mirror at the two large trunks placed beside Xiao Qing on the back seat, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. By a twist of fate, they had successfully hijacked the Black Dragon Society's armored car once again, which was truly an unexpected turn of events.

  "Feng Shu, how did you know I'd come here?" Xiaoyu asked while casting a reconnaissance glance towards the rear of the car and finding no one was following them, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He remembered that before they left, Xiaoqing had punctured the tires of both cars with a military dagger, so even if the people from Feiying Tang wanted to chase after them, there was no way they could.

  "Oh, it was Xiao Qing who called me and said that after going to the hospital, she never returned home. That's when I found out about Uncle's accident. I thought of asking Xu Fan to check the address of Hongmei branch, and I knew he must have come here. So I rushed over in my car. Little Yu, don't do this again next time! If there's any action, you must notify us, can't go alone, it's too dangerous!"

  Xiao Yu's heart was moved, although he was alone, there were still so many people who cared about him. He looked at Xiao Qing in the back seat and said, "Xiao Qing, thank you for what happened today. If it wasn't for you, I might have died at Chen Hong's hands."

  Xiao Qing shook her head and said softly, "Also saved me twice, I still owe once, by the way, how's Grandpa? Still in the hospital?"

  Feng Yong was taken aback by what he heard, it was the first time since he met Xiao Qing that he had heard her say so much.

  Xiao Yu's heart sank, although he had avenged his adoptive father, but Old Zhang was gone forever.

  Many scenes flashed through his mind, the first time he opened a store in the market was thanks to Old Zhang's idea that made his business take off.

  It was Old Zhang again who took him in as his own son and only then allowed him to register for a Shanghai hukou, qualifying him to attend Hongguang Middle School.

  It's still Old Zhang who firmly supports himself when he needs it most. When he needed money the most, he even took out all his pension.

  Their feelings for each other were closer than those of biological father and son, a enviable grandfather-grandson duo in the eyes of others. But now, this elderly man who loved himself the most and cared about himself the most has left this world forever.

  Xiao Yu finally couldn't hold it in, and two lines of hot tears flowed down.

  "Xiao Yu, what's wrong?" Feng Yong, who was sitting in the driver's seat, immediately noticed Xiao Yu's abnormality and seemed to have guessed something.

  "Xiao Yu choked and said, 'My adoptive father... he... he's dead.'"

  Feng Yong and Xiao Qing simultaneously showed surprise and sympathy in their eyes, they knew Xiao Yu's feelings towards his adoptive father, and also knew that his adoptive father was the only relative Xiao Yu had in this world.

  Although they didn't know the cause of Xiao Yu's father's death, seeing Xiao Yu risking his own safety and causing a big disturbance at the Red Plum Branch of the Black Dragon Society, they knew it must be related to the Black Dragon Society.

  Feng Yong let out a long sigh, his right hand slapping the steering wheel fiercely, and cursed, "Damn it, Heilonghui, I'm not done with you yet!"

  All the way, the carriage was silent and a sad atmosphere spread throughout the carriage. Feng Yong thought of his wife, Xiao Qing thought of her master's family, while Xiao Yu was deeply immersed in memories of Old Zhang.

  The off-road vehicle drove through the streets and alleys, finally stopping at the entrance of Tianlin Food City. Xiaoyu and Xiaoqing got out of the car, only to see Feng Yong jumping out of the car as well.

  After opening the car door, he said to Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, take these two boxes of money away!"

  Xiao Yu shook his head, "Uncle Feng, I'm not in a hurry to use the money now. Besides, my business is going well and I have enough liquidity, so it's better to leave the money as it is!"

  "Xiao Yu, this money wasn't given to you, it's for Grandpa's funeral expenses. Grandpa didn't have an easy life, so let's give him a grand and dignified farewell, and buy a plot of land with good feng shui too. It's our way of showing respect as his younger generation. Money can't be taken with us when we're born or when we die, isn't it meant for occasions like this?"

  Feng Yong said so, Xiao Yu had no choice but to take a box of money, and another box refused to take it back and stuffed it into the off-road jeep.

  "Xiao Yu, there's still an exam tomorrow, don't be too sad. The dead are already gone, but we the living must live well! Don't forget, those bastards from Heilong will are still out there!" Feng Yong patted Xiao Yu on the shoulder, got back in the car, and with a rev of the engine, the off-road jeep sped away into the darkness.

  "The dead are already dead, but the living must live well." Xiaoyu muttered to himself, savoring the words left behind by Feng Yong.

  A warmth on his hand, a soft and boneless small hand grasped his right hand, turned his head to look, and a bright and clear eye like a morning star appeared in front of him.

  At this moment, the chill in her eyes seemed to have vanished without a trace. A mix of concern, worry, heartache and pity was conveyed from her big eyes, all the way to my heart, filling me with warmth. The boundless sorrow in my heart seemed to dissipate instantly.

  In Xiaoyu's eyes, Xiaoqing's current image and the 'shadow' in her memory suddenly overlapped at this moment. At some point, they both looked at themselves with the same gaze. Xiaoyu's line of sight became a little dazed, and the stars in the sky seemed to have printed a faint star-shaped birthmark on Xiaoqing's forehead. She was the 'shadow' in her memory!

  Xiao Yu suddenly opened his arms and tightly hugged Xiao Qing, his cheek gently rubbing against hers, as if searching for that long-lost feeling.

  Xiao Qing's body shook violently, as if she was startled by Xiao Yu's sudden action and forgot to resist, allowing herself to be held in his arms, her eyes filled with tension, unease, and a hint of faint surprise.

  Smelling the fragrance in Xiao Qing's hair, Xiaoyu's heart was filled with peace and tranquility at this moment. It was as if a small boat had returned to its harbor, and there was an indescribable sense of satisfaction. Unconsciously, he let out a drowsy call, "Ying～～～～"

  Xiao Qing's body stiffened, the surprise in her eyes instantly disappearing. She pushed Xiao Yu away with force and turned around to walk into the store without looking back.
