Xiao Mingyue naturally saw their dilemma and immediately took decisive, unyielding steps forward.

The Dragon Guards blocking her way instinctively retreated.

Xiao Mingyue sneered coolly, then dominantly extended her hand to push aside two Dragon Guards, who dared not retaliate.

Retaliate, how could they?

Truly worthy of being Sea City's female demon.

Just arrogantly impressive.

Wang Qian was in awe, completely impressed from head to toe.

The room door was suddenly pulled open, Li Feng appeared at the doorway, and raising his eyes he saw the "disheveled" Xiao Mingyue.

His gaze involuntarily scanned her; her shoulder-length wavy hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a professional suit, with the jacket missing, the shirt tied in a knot at the waist, and the skirt torn to shreds like fabric.

What kind of outfit is this?

A ripped style?

"Did you do this?"

Li Feng looked back, seeing two female bodyguards just subdued, still struggling desperately, and then looked at Xiao Mingyue; it was suggestive.

The Dragon Guards quickly shook their heads.

"Young Master, this has nothing to do with us; she tore it herself. She even claimed to be your woman and tried to force her way in. We didn't dare even touch her with a finger."

Upon hearing the Dragon Guard's explanation, Li Feng immediately understood.

"You're something else!"

Li Feng withdrew his gaze and looked at Xiao Mingyue: "Isn't this too much just to see me, 'my woman'?"

Xiao Mingyue naturally heard the teasing in Li Feng's words but snorted disdainfully and barged past Li Feng into the room.

"Feng Shao..."

Li Feng glanced at Wang Qian, then at the Dragon Guards nearby: "Release those two female bodyguards." After speaking, Li Feng turned and went back into the room.

Entering the living room.

Li Feng saw Xiao Mingyue standing in the living room, sniffing the air with her delicate nose. Hearing Li Feng approaching from behind, Xiao Mingyue turned coldly.

"Ha, I said those outside wouldn't let me in because you're playing with women in here."

After speaking, Xiao Mingyue walked towards the sofa. Before sitting, she turned to Li Feng: "You didn't do anything on the sofa, did you?"

Li Feng looked at Xiao Mingyue, too lazy to explain.

"What are you doing in Huacheng?"

Xiao Mingyue turned and sat on the sofa, her already graceful figure making one want to pounce as she settled in.

She raised her eyes, coldly looking at Li Feng, who asked the question.

"What am I in Huacheng for, don't you know?"

"Li Feng, have you gone mad? I really underestimated your madness. Even if I rejected you, you didn't need to resort to such despicable tactics. Do you know the hornet's nest you've stirred?"

Li Feng sat on a single sofa nearby, listening to Xiao Mingyue's scolding, and only looked over with amusement once she finished.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Upon hearing Li Feng's words, Xiao Mingyue was instantly furious: "Li, don't play the fool with me. I'm here arguing with you because I don't want to see you ruin your future."

"I told you at the Summer Villa, Lin Changsheng isn't easy to deal with, and he's not by himself; he's a conglomerate of interests, representing many people's stakes."

"If you want trouble with Lin Changsheng, you'll need to face this huge affiliation of interests, do you understand?"

"Where do you think the money I handle comes from?"

"You think it's all mine?"

"Let me tell you, the vast amounts of funds in my hands come from hundreds of different stakeholders, and I'm just in charge of managing this money."

"And because I handle this vast capital, these stakeholders have to back me up. You should understand this, and I'm just one side of it. Lin Changsheng holds many more cards."

"Not to mention, this time he sent over Duan Qirui, and you should have looked into his identity—Chairman of the Heavenly Dragon Group, a consortium holding assets worth billions."

"And Duan Qirui was raised single-handedly by Lin Changsheng. He acknowledges Lin Changsheng as his foster father."

"Privately, Lin Changsheng's adopted sons are called the Thirteen Grand Protectors, with Duan Qirui ranked first, also Lin Changsheng's right-hand man. Each of these Thirteen Grand Protectors is quite formidable, and critically, aside from the public few, even I don't know who the others are."

"It's said that Lin Changsheng has placed some of his adopted sons across various sectors, even in political circles, but who they are, even I have no way of knowing."

"Leaving that aside, of those well-known, Duan Qirui's three brothers are nicknamed Dragon, Tiger, and Dog."

"Of these three, Duan Qirui is the chairman of the Heavenly Dragon Group. Besides him, the Tiger is Sun Biao, chairman of Puma Group, a leading enterprise in East Guang, which, being part of the Pearl River Delta, is as economically developed as Sea City's Yangtze Delta."

"Oh, and who's the Dog then?"

"Zhao Zhongxin of Zhongxin Group, another formidable character."

"Heavenly Dragon, Puma, Zhongxin."

Li Feng stroked his chin, not expecting Lin Changsheng to have so many hidden cards, and to find out that Zhao Zhongxin is one of Lin Changsheng's Thirteen Grand Protectors.

This did surprise him somewhat, as Li Feng had learned from Xu Family's Dark Hall Elder Si Changfeng about Xu Family's three main forces.

Namely Dark Hall, Zhao Family of Zhongxin, and this Lin Heavenly Master.

Dark Hall commands assassination power, Zhao Family controls finances, and Lin Heavenly Master commands connections. Now Xiao Mingyue was telling him that Zhao Zhongxin is one of Lin Changsheng's Thirteen Grand Protectors.

Tch, doesn't that mean that half of the Xu Family's power is under Lin's name, making the Xu Family seem just a figurehead?

This discovery was indeed unexpected for Li Feng.

"And what about you? Aren't you also one of Lin Changsheng's Thirteen Grand Protectors? After all, you manage quite a bit of money."

Li Feng looked at Xiao Mingyue with a meaningful gaze.

Xiao Mingyue naturally caught the information in Li Feng's gaze, leaned forward, and grabbed the ashtray on the coffee table to throw at Li Feng.

"Li, stop being filthy. Are you implying I'm also Lin Changsheng's woman?"

"I didn't say that, just curious why Lin Changsheng values you so highly."

Xiao Mingyue snorted coldly.

"Just because you want to know, should I tell you? Who do you think you are? And I'm here to warn you, release Lin Wanzhou quickly and let this end, or don't blame me for not warning you."

Li Feng pursed his lips.

"Do you think letting him go now will do any good? You didn't just stumble out of school, so why say such naive things."

"Once the pieces are on the board, there must be a winner or loser the moment the game begins."

"Anyway, thank you for going out of your way to remind me."

"Even going as far as to tear your own clothes."
