On the sea, with the British frigate and helicopter departing, this turmoil finally came to a temporary end.

Inside the freighter's cargo hold, Chen Wei and a few others headed to the room on the fourth floor where the goods were stored. Along the way, they found that several doors on the second and third floors were open and had been ransacked, causing them to worry silently.

Upon reaching the fourth floor, they were relieved to see the lock on the door of the largest warehouse intact and undamaged.

Eagle took out a key and opened the door; the room was just as it was when he left.

"Fortunately, our boss is strong enough to even drive away British warships. Otherwise, all our efforts these days would have been in vain," An Zai smacked his lips and sighed.

Da Pao and the others also had smiles on their faces. In their line of work, finding a boss with strength and loyalty is more important than anything else.

"Everyone get ready. Tomorrow the freighter will dock at Abu Dhabi's port, and we won't sail anymore. The boss has arranged a plane for us to return," Chen Wei said to the group after closing a box.

After this incident, Qi Yun was concerned about further trouble at sea. So, after discussing with Harris, the freighter changed its course, no longer going to Hong Kong Island, and instead heading directly to Abu Dhabi, where Salaman had already smoothed things over with customs—this batch of goods wouldn't be inspected.

In London, inside the Kensington Palace Gardens estate.

James received the news and flew into a rage, throwing the wine glass in his hand onto the ground.

"F**k!"

"These stupid pigs!"

The subordinate beside him glanced at him and said quietly, "I've already arranged for people to investigate the identities of those individuals in China. I'm confident there will be results soon."

James, with a sullen look, remained silent for quite a while before speaking sinisterly, "Keep an eye on that freighter. Once they reach Southeast Asia, have people over there take action. We must seize the goods back!"

"Alright."

...

On the other side, Qi Yun put down the phone and went to the bathroom to wash his face.

By now, it was already getting light outside, but he wasn't sleepy, so he went to the gym on the first floor to start training.

After practicing the boxing techniques taught by Chen Wei several times, it was eight in the morning, and Zhao Qing had also woken up.

She rubbed her eyes and asked Qi Yun in confusion, "Why are you up so early today?"

Qi Yun didn't explain much, just lovingly patted her head, "Couldn't sleep."

"Alright, I'm going to wake up Nuannuan," Zhao Qing hugged him and then turned to head upstairs.

"Hey, wait a minute." Qi Yun grabbed her hand from behind and hesitated for a moment before saying, "The company has been quiet lately, why don't I take you and our daughter on a trip?"

"Hmm?" Zhao Qing was a bit surprised, blinking her big eyes at him, "What made you suddenly think of going on vacation?"

Qi Yun chuckled, "I've been busy lately and haven't spent enough quality time with you. Now that I have some free time."

Zhao Qing was tempted but, after thinking about it, she pouted and replied, "I can take time off from work, but Nuannuan has to go to school. Traveling might disrupt her studies."

"She's starting first grade next semester. It's important to focus on her studies."

"So let's wait until the summer vacation..."

Qi Yun opened his mouth but didn't insist, smiling and nodding, "Alright, we'll wait until summer vacation to take you both."

"Okay, I'm going to wake up Nuannuan." Zhao Qing smiled as she turned to go upstairs.

Watching her back, Qi Yun took out his phone and called Duan Pingyu.

"How's it going?"

"No progress yet. The opponent's skills are not simple; they seem to have had specific training. Lao Niu is dealing with them," Duan Pingyu responded over the phone.

Qi Yun could vaguely hear faint wails through the phone and furrowed his brow as he instructed, "Come back first, and wait for me at the door."

"Alright." Duan Pingyu didn't ask for reasons, simply replied, and hung up.

Qi Yun took a deep breath, put away his mobile, and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

...

Over half an hour later, in the business car, besides Duan Pingyu, Gao Min had also been called over by Qi Yun.

With a very serious expression, he said to the two, "Recently, a group is trying to deal with me, and they might target Zhao Qing and Nuannuan too. So starting today, Pingyu and Xiao Min will act together."

"Your only task is to protect their safety at any cost!"

"Don't have any scruples! If something happens, I'll use all my resources to protect you. Even if you can't stay in China, I'll arrange for you to go abroad!"

"Do you understand me?"

Duan Pingyu and Gao Min exchanged a glance and replied solemnly, "Understood!"

Seeing their serious expression, Qi Yun nodded, "Go find Ah Jiao; she's prepared some things for you. Use them at your discretion."

"Alright." The two naturally knew what was being prepared.

"Hmm, that's all. Call me immediately if there's any situation," Qi Yun said and then opened the car door to get out.

Actually, his arrangement carried certain risks, because those things are too sensitive domestically. Even though Ah Jiao went disguised to the black market to buy them, causing a big commotion might lead people to trace back the clues.

But Qi Yun was forced to make this decision because the style of those people clearly showed they had no scruples—they'd kill without hesitation.

Although Duan Pingyu and Gao Min have great skills, if the opponent is well-armed, no matter how good the kung fu, it's hard to fight a knife, so Qi Yun dared not risk his woman and child's safety.

"If only we could get a few gun permits, it would be much easier..."

At ten in the morning, West Mountain.
