But now the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles are all in Ci Xin's hands. Thinking of this, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but frown and asked, "Uncle Liu, how many Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles did Ci Xin take from you?" This question seemed important to Xiao Yifei. Because if all the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles were taken by Ci Xin, he would have no trump card left.

Xiao Yifei had seven Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles taken by Ci Xin, five main needles and two auxiliary needles. So the most crucial thing now is to find out how many Liu Bailong still has. Hearing Xiao Yifei's question, Liu Bailong sighed softly and then asked in return: "I believe your Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles have also been taken by Ci Xin, right?"

Xiao Yifei nodded without objection and said, "That's right, a total of seven, all taken." After hearing Xiao Yifei say he had seven, Liu Bailong frowned as Xiao Yifei waited for a long time and finally got Liu Bailong's response, "Since you have seven, then all the remaining Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles should be with Ci Xin."

Liu Bailong and Xiao Yifei were discussing the issue of the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles, but Xiao Yifei was utterly surprised when Liu Bailong said, "All the remaining Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles are with Ci Xin." This statement rendered Xiao Yifei speechless with shock because he had been searching for the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles all along, and now all of them had traces.

Can you imagine Xiao Yifei not being thrilled? He's now even doubting whether Liu Bailong is deceiving him, so Xiao Yifei asked excitedly, "Really?"

Hearing Xiao Yifei's incredulous tone, Liu Bailong smiled and then confirmed to Xiao Yifei that he was telling the truth. Indeed, what Xiao Yifei had been searching for is complete now!

"Everything is arranged as it should be," Xiao Yifei couldn't help but sigh. After a while, Liu Bailong said helplessly, "The items are with Ci Xin, but you may not necessarily be able to get them." Liu Bailong originally wanted to ease Xiao Yifei's disappointed mood, but he didn't expect Xiao Yifei would be so excited.

Thus, Liu Bailong spoke words to calm Xiao Yifei down, and sure enough, upon hearing these words, the previously excited Xiao Yifei immediately cooled down. This indeed presented a challenge; if the items were in someone else's hands, it would be easier, but if they are with Ci Xin, the odds of Xiao Yifei getting them are very, very slim.

Why? Because of Ci Xin's temperament, Xiao Yifei wasn't unfamiliar with Qianxi's temperament; if Qianxi was like that, much less Ci Xin after all these years. So asking Ci Xin for what she wants is virtually impossible.

However, Xiao Yifei's character is not one to concede easily. With a hurdle in front of him, he will find a way to remove it—that is Xiao Yifei's way. You heard Xiao Yifei decisively say, "Since the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles have all appeared before me, I believe this is fate prepared by heaven, and even if it isn't, man will conquer heaven."

Xiao Yifei's tone was calm, as if he wasn't joking at all, and hearing such words, Liu Bailong felt a stir in his heart. Such insight at such a young age, this young man is bound to be limitless, Liu Bailong thought, and advised Xiao Yifei not to rush.

Xiao Yifei naturally wouldn't rush; since Ci Xin took him, there must be a purpose, it can't be to hold him here for no reason. So Xiao Yifei believes he will definitely meet Ci Xin, and as long as he sees her, he will have the opportunity—that's what Xiao Yifei thinks, and now all he needs to do is wait.

On Hua Xiangrong's side, due to Qianxi saying Ren Tianye didn't touch Xiao Yifei, Hua Xiangrong has been tirelessly investigating clues about Xiao Yifei. How could a perfectly fine living person just vanish?

Since it was due to rescuing Tang Rong that he disappeared, Hua Xiangrong's initial target was Tang Rong. However, after obtaining Tang Rong's firsthand information, Hua Xiangrong couldn't make sense of it. The plain and ordinary background and ordinary experiences in the information looked like a very ordinary woman, apart from having lived with Xiao Yifei.

Seeing such bland information, Hua Xiangrong even doubted she got the wrong information, but those clearly written bold letters saying "Tang Rong" confirmed that this indeed was Tang Rong's file.

Women often place their focus in the wrong places, and seeing Tang Rong was such an ordinary woman, Hua Xiangrong couldn't help wondering if Xiao Yifei liked her, and this thought made Hua Xiangrong a bit angry.

Being angry, Hua Xiangrong just wished Xiao Yifei would never come back; she put aside her work, but soon adjusted her emotions. After investigating Tang Rong, Hua Xiangrong thought of that building—one of the larger buildings in Cloud City.

Since Xiao Yifei went missing after visiting the place, Hua Xiangrong surely considered the building as a key object of study. Thinking of this, Hua Xiangrong turned around and rummaged through the information cabinet behind her, and after a while, she pulled out a stack.

This stack of documents was about Cloud City's building. The building was simple, served as offices for some companies to rent, like Tang Rong's information—this plain-looking building had three words that caught Hua Xiangrong's attention, "Ren Yuxing!"

Upon seeing these three words, Hua Xiangrong immediately thought of Ren Tianye, the same family name, prompting her habitual speculation. She quickly took out Ren Tianye's information and indeed saw, on Ren Tianye's file, that Ren Yuxing was Ren Tianye's brother!

It turns out this building belonged to Ren Tianye's brother. Such critical news gave Hua Xiangrong quite a surprise, so without hesitation, she went straight to find Qianxi.

At this moment, Xiao Yifei, still unaware, has friends far away in Beijing trying to think of ways to find him. Right now, Xiao Yifei only wants to wait for Ci Xin to come seek him, so he has the chance to negotiate.

Efforts are never fruitless; the next day, a prison guard took Xiao Yifei out, saying someone was looking for him. Though Xiao Yifei didn't know who it was, he already had some clues in mind. As expected, he was taken to a room, the furnishings simple.

A table, two chairs, quite simple. Xiao Yifei sat in one of the chairs, waiting for the other person to arrive. After a while, the room door opened, and as Xiao Yifei guessed, the visitor was indeed Ci Xin!

Seeing Xiao Yifei sitting in the room, Ci Xin wasn't surprised. It looked as if she knew beforehand. Ci Xin then slowly sat across from Xiao Yifei, looked at him, smirked, and asked, "How have you been these days?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yifei chuckled, replying, "Thanks to the senior, I've been doing quite well these days." Xiao Yifei finished and snorted coldly. Seeing this, Ci Xin frowned, despite Xiao Yifei's lack of martial arts skill, his verbal prowess was formidable. Originally calm Ci Xin was left speechless by him.
