Chapter 269: Chapter 267 Let’s Go Home

"You...."

Ye Futu’s expression turned ugly in an instant. He had never expected Rose to be so resolute, completely impervious to persuasion, "Fine, President Rose, I assure you that nothing will happen to Lu Tianxing, but I hope you won’t act rashly. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be something either of us could bear, and I believe you wouldn’t want to see everything you’ve worked for destroyed in an instant."

"Director Ye, I hope your assurance holds true. Three days—if I don’t see my man return safely within three days, I fear I might really go mad."

Rose stood up and waved her hand towards the back, "Xiao Liu, see Director Ye out."

"No need, President Rose, I will take my leave."

Ye Futu stood up, with Zhao Shan, and left Zero Point Bar.

Once they had left Zero Point Bar, Zhao Shan, who had been holding back from speaking, finally couldn’t help but say, "Director, why do we have to cooperate with an underworld force? Wouldn’t it be easier to just wipe them out? Why do we have to submit to them?"

"Wipe them out?"

Ye Futu pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and sighed, "Zhao Shan, you are too young. Wiping out the Rose Society is easier said than done. Moreover, in the territories controlled by the Rose Society, how many engage in illegal activities? If you wipe them out, can you ensure that their successors will be as self-disciplined as the Rose Society and avoid those forbidden activities?"

"Since ancient times, where there is darkness, there is light. We need them to suppress the other unsavory elements. Without them, Modu might fall into chaos. Do you think our police force alone can handle those undesirables?"

Zhao Shan was silent, saying nothing. Ye Futu was right. The police force alone couldn’t achieve this. The people from the underworld guerrilla against them—come when you leave, leave when you come, hiding whenever necessary, making them impossible to find, yet, the underworld can find each other with ease.

Even in some cases, the police need these people, which is why forces like the Rose Society, Sword Alliance, and Sky Alliance exist and the police turn a blind eye.

"Let’s head back. I hope there won’t be any more trouble; otherwise, Modu might be in for a major purge," Ye Futu said with a deep sigh, glanced back at Zero Point Bar one last time, and said nothing more as he got into the car and drove away from Zero Point Bar.

...

Early in the morning, as dawn was just breaking, Bai Zhiqing had already gotten out of bed, dark circles under her eyes, her gaze dull, her expression somewhat wooden as she walked out of her room.

Last night, she hadn’t slept at all; her mind filled with the image of Lu Tianxing. She didn’t know why, but every time she closed her eyes, she could see Lu Tianxing’s playful grin and hear their bickering, unable to shake him from her mind.

"Could this be love?"

Bai Zhiqing was a bit perplexed, a bit anxious, feeling an emotion she had never felt before, which made her somewhat fearful, yet also somewhat hopeful.

Walking down the stairs with heavy steps, Bai Zhiqing saw her grandmother and her sister Bai Weiwei sitting on the couch, each with big dark circles under their eyes, evidently, like her, they had not slept well the night before either.

"Sister, you’re up. Why didn’t you sleep a little longer?" Bai Weiwei asked concerningly, rubbing her red eyes.

Bai Zhiqing shook her head, "I couldn’t sleep. Any news of Lu Tianxing?"

He Cailan sighed deeply and shook her head, "No, your grandfather just went out, planning to see if he could learn anything. It shouldn’t be long now."

After hearing this, Bai Zhiqing said nothing more and simply walked over and sat down on the couch, staring blankly, as if lost in thought.

"Sister, do you think brother-in-law could be in trouble? I’ve heard that the inside of the prison is very dark, and many people bizarrely die there," Bai Weiwei said, her face showing deep concern.

"He won’t, Lu Tianxing definitely won’t die; he’s a disaster, he could live for a thousand years, he won’t die."

Bai Zhiqing suddenly raised her head, her eyes red as she looked at Bai Weiwei and hysterically shouted. It took a while before she calmed down, then looked at Bai Weiwei with an apologetic expression, "I’m sorry, Weiwei, my mood isn’t good, my tone was a bit harsh, sorry."

"It’s okay, sister, I understand."

Bai Weiwei shook her head indifferently, knowing that venting was the best way to release emotions.

The room fell silent again, everyone deep in thought, until the ring of a telephone startled everyone. Soon, the gloom that filled the room was swept away by cheers, and Bai Zhiqing hurriedly drove off in a car.

At eight o’clock in the morning, Jiao Long and Breakblade appeared at the door of the prison room where Lu Tianxing was held. Both were expressionless, but a careful observation would reveal the resentment flashing in Breakblade’s eyes.

"Breakblade, I warn you, I don’t care how much resentment you harbor, but remember, you are a member of the Yanhuang Group, not some bandit king, if you dare to strike again, don’t blame me for being rude and cleaning house."

Jiao Long glanced at Breakblade and opened the door with his hand. As soon as he entered, he was stunned.

In the room, Lu Tianxing sat on a chair as if he knew they were coming back, waiting like a host for his guests.

Hearing the sound of the door, Lu Tianxing smiled and said, "You’re quite early. I thought you’d at least wait until now. Seems I was wrong, Sima Lingyun is quite efficient in his work, I’ll give him that."

"How dare you, Group Leader Sima is not someone you can..."

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s mocking, Breakblade was immediately furious.

"What are you, jabbering nonsense."

The moment Breakblade finished speaking, Lu Tianxing’s gaze suddenly turned icy, and in a flash, he appeared beside Breakblade, reaching out and grabbing him by the neck.

Breakblade only saw a blur before his neck was seized by Lu Tianxing, his eyes immediately filled with intense fear. A strong sensation of suffocation overwhelmed him, especially as Lu Tianxing’s gaze towards him resembled that for a dead man.

Jiao Long’s expression drastically changed. Having witnessed Lu Tianxing’s strength yesterday, he was shocked to see him move again, realizing he had still underestimated Lu Tianxing. The moment Lu Tianxing made his move, he hadn’t even noticed how, yet he was already by his side.

In other words, if Lu Tianxing wanted to kill them, they wouldn’t even have the chance to resist.

"I told you yesterday, don’t act too arrogant in front of me, or someone will die. Do you think you might die today?" Lu Tianxing said, his lips curling into a cold smile.

"Lu Tianxing stop, stop, this is a misunderstanding, we are here today to let you go."

Jiao Long quickly explained, waving his hands towards the side, "Look, who we have brought to you."

"Lu Tianxing."

A crisp yet raspy voice came from the side.

Lu Tianxing was slightly stunned, his gaze falling on the tender figure beside him, "Wife, how did you come here?"

Seeing that familiar face, Bai Zhiqing felt as if she had suddenly become light-hearted. She flipped her hair, revealing a radiant smile, "I’ve come to take my husband home."

"Hmm, let’s go home."

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing’s face showed a touch of tenderness. He carelessly dropped Breakblade, like throwing away trash, tenderly touched Bai Zhiqing’s slightly pale cheek, rearranged her somewhat messy hair, and holding her hand, they walked outside.
