"It should be alright now; she will wake up soon." Ye Tianfan frowned deeply, a chill settling in his heart.

If it weren't for the tight space in the car, preventing the full application of the Soul Needle technique, Long Yuqing wouldn't have to endure such excruciating pain.

The Leng Family's sudden ambush indeed caught everyone off guard. If Ye Tianfan hadn't been present, Long Yuqing might not have made it back to Jiangzhou City alive.

"Let the driver come in, we're heading to the Leng Family."

A cold gleam flashed in Ye Tianfan's eyes; as the saying goes, to give without a return is discourteous. Before even meeting, the Leng Family had presented such a grand gesture; Ye Tianfan planned to see what kind of power they truly possessed.

The driver got into the car, changed directions, and sped towards the Leng Family. In the back seat, Long Yuqing rested her head on Ye Tianfan's leg, breathing evenly.

Long Yuqing had actually regained consciousness, but her body felt weak; she didn't want to open her eyes and just wished to quietly rest on Ye Tianfan's leg for a while.

Qin Ruomeng, though somewhat uncomfortable, recognized it was a special situation and said nothing more.

The vehicle sped along, quickly entering the territory of Dongzhou City. After exiting the highway, they were met by over a dozen black Audi cars, blocking Qin Ruomeng's vehicle.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Qin?"

A youth in a white suit emerged from one of the Audis, appearing in his early twenties, with cropped hair, looking vibrant.

"Who are you?" Qin Ruomeng pressed the car window down, casting a cold glance outside.

"I'm the business manager of the Leng Family; you can call me Feng Chen. Master Leng sent me here to receive you."

Before he finished speaking, the youth named Feng Chen raised his hand to pull open Qin Ruomeng's car door.

His movements were exceptionally skilled, as if arriving in Dongzhou City meant he was on the Leng Family's turf. Feng Chen made a bold assumption that Qin Ruomeng would get out of the car without seeking her consent.

Yet things did not go as intended.

Just as the youth's hand gripped the car door handle of Qin Ruomeng's car.

"Whoosh..."

A gust of wind instantly spiraled up from within his palm.

Profound Force!

It was Ye Tianfan's Profound Force.

The youth's manner was excessively audacious. Ye Tianfan had already secretly sent Profound Force, attaching it to the car door.

Unaware, the youth grasped the car door handle, and at that moment, felt a sharp pain in his palm. The fiercely spinning air currents instantly left deep cuts in his palm, blood flowing unstoppably.

"Hiss..."

Feng Chen couldn't help but draw a sharp breath, surprise flickering in his eyes as he retreated two to three steps before steadying himself.

"The Leng Family? What arrogance! Do you really think you're lords of Dongzhou City?"

Ye Tianfan's icy voice sounded from the back seat, containing evident anger, adding a sense of menace when heard by Feng Chen.

Feng Chen's face was full of astonishment: "May I ask who is speaking?"

"My Mister."

As Qin Ruomeng spoke, the rear window slowly rolled down, Ye Tianfan didn't even glance outside, just coldly stating, "The invitation was sent by the Leng Family, wasn't it? Is this how they treat their guests?"

Although Feng Chen hadn't exchanged glances with Ye Tianfan, the aura Ye Tianfan exuded was intimidating!

"I'm sorry, I didn't consider it properly. I hope you won't mind."

Feng Chen's body trembled as he swiftly bent down to apologize.

Though Feng Chen was merely a business manager for the Leng Family, they sent him to receive guests, indicating his capabilities. Naturally, this Feng Chen was smooth and adaptable.

Upon seeing Ye Tianfan in the back seat, Feng Chen immediately realized he was the truly formidable figure. Although the Leng Family invited Long Yuqing and Qin Ruomeng, Ye Tianfan's presence had completely overshadowed them both.

To say without reservation, Ye Tianfan was the driving force behind the incident!

The car window slowly rose again, once more severing visual contact between Feng Chen and Ye Tianfan, at which Qin Ruomeng coldly remarked, "You drive first; I'll have our driver follow."

Having been given a warning by Ye Tianfan upon first meeting, Feng Chen knew the man with Qin Ruomeng's car was no ordinary character.

Instantly, he dared not show any disrespect, quickly replying with a smile, "Alright, alright."

As he finished speaking, Feng Chen turned and got into his Audi car, then the vehicle slowly started moving, while Qin Ruomeng's car tailed at the end of the convoy.

Now, sitting in the car, Feng Chen was already sweating profusely, his right hand trembling uncontrollably. His assistant quickly handed him a sterile gauze, saying, "Manager Feng, this..."

The assistant's words were cut off as Feng Chen waved his hand to interrupt, promptly taking out his phone.

"Hello, this is Feng Chen. Notify Master Leng that they've arrived."

"Alright." A woman's voice came from the phone.

"This time they've brought someone formidable, tell the master to handle carefully."

"Understood." The woman's voice was soft, not taking Feng Chen's warning to heart, merely uttering three words before hanging up.

"Sister Xue is still so cold, not approachable at all." Feng Chen shook his head helplessly.

The assistant wanted to say something but ultimately only opened his mouth without uttering a sound.

Sister Xue referred to by Feng Chen was named Xue Qianxun, the adopted daughter of Master Leng, rarely seen even by Feng Chen, who was a trusted aide to Master Leng; meeting Xue Qianxun was exceedingly difficult.

The vehicles slowly approached, stopping outside the Leng Group building. Feng Chen disregarded the pain in his hand, swiftly opened the car door, and headed toward Qin Ruomeng's car.

Just as Feng Chen got out of the car, he noticed a tall woman standing with a smile in front of the Leng Group building.

This woman was none other than Xue Qianxun.

And at this moment, she was actually smiling!

This deeply startled Feng Chen; everyone at the Leng Group knew Xue Qianxun as a renowned ice-cold beauty. Not even Feng Chen, nor the executive president of the Leng Group, had ever witnessed her smile!

Yet now, she was actually smiling?

Feng Chen turned his head in surprise, following Xue Qianxun's gaze backward.

Only now did he realize Ye Tianfan had exited the car at some point, and his eyes were fixated on Xue Qianxun.

While Xue Qianxun was looking at him.

Their eyes met.

Xue Qianxun revealed a rare smile.

She smiled at Ye Tianfan?

Feng Chen's mind was racing with countless thoughts. He was certain this was Ye Tianfan's first visit to Dongzhou City, and Xue Qianxun's first encounter with Ye Tianfan.

But why was Xue Qianxun smiling at him?

Feng Chen was puzzled beyond comprehension; two people who had never known each other, upon first meeting, Xue Qianxun's manner toward him was anything but ordinary.
