Qin Zhiyuan looked at Yang Chen and frowned slightly, "What? Did something happen?"

In his impression, Yang Chen never asked about his parents. Even if he was upset, he dealt with it alone in a corner, never asking or expressing thoughts about his parents.

Yang Chen hesitated for a moment, not daring to reveal the reason.

After all, there was still some resistance in his heart.

Qin Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said to Yang Chen, "If you need anything, feel free to tell me. Although the photos of your parents were not preserved at the time, if I see them, I can still recognize them clearly."

Yang Chen nodded slightly and lowered his head in silence.

Qin Zhiyuan looked at Yang Chen's expression, several times wanting to speak but hesitated.

It's been more than a year since he last saw the elders, and there were many things he wanted to say.

Only until the afternoon did Yang Chen stand up to leave.

By evening time.

News came from Wowo Mountain that Purple Cultivator and the others had already sealed off Wowo Mountain, taking complete control over it. The surrounding villages were also issued lockdown orders.

Additionally, they found a corpse at the foot of the mountain that had been corroded by strong acid, making it impossible to identify.

Yang Chen knew that it must be someone from the Xiang family.

After instructing them to guard the area properly, Yang Chen hung up the phone.

"Is everything ready?" Yang Chen looked at Sun Yue.

Sun Yue nodded, "Everything is notified, and they have already set off."

Yang Chen nodded, adjusted his clothes in the mirror, and said to Sun Yue, "Let's go!"

Sun Yue nodded, took the car keys, and headed out.

Tonight, Yang Chen had an appointment with someone.

Nangang Hotel.

Room 308.

Inside the room, there were already people waiting.

They seemed very nervous because the identity of the person contacting them was very special.

"Old Gao, are you sure?" Hu Mingxuan stared at Gao Hong.

Gao Hong clenched his fist and said, "Of course! I heard that the boss went to Elder Zhuo's place, and I even saw a car parked at the courtyard gate, it shouldn't be wrong!"

"Did you see the boss?" Guan Xiaoke asked excitedly.

Gao Wei shook his head, "No."

"Then how can you be sure that's the boss's car?" Guan Xiaoke asked.

Gao Hong didn't know how to answer.

Soon after, the door was pushed open, and a figure appeared at the entrance.

Several people immediately stood up, looking at the person at the entrance, faces full of excitement.

"Boss!"

"Boss!"

"Leader!"

...

Yang Chen smiled as he glanced at everyone, waved his hand, and said, "Everyone sit, sit down!"

Only then did they slowly sit down, but their eyes still fixed on Yang Chen.

"Boss, where did you go last year? Why was there no news about you at all?" Gao Hong couldn't help but ask.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "Had some things to handle."

Since he came to Ningchuan, Yang Chen had no reason not to reunite with these old friends.

"Boss, you're not playing fair. Zhao Shisan even rushed back from Gu Gu City to find you, and you didn't share anything with us?" Gao Hong said in a deep voice.

"Exactly!" Wei Peng also shouted, "Boss, I won't speak for other matters, but as long as it's something brothers can help with, we're absolutely obligated to do so!"

Yang Chen looked at everyone and smiled, "I understand! I understand your intentions!"

Yang Chen took a deep breath and slowly said to everyone, "To be honest, I shouldn't have come to see you. You know my identity, and you know what contact with me means. I don't want to bring danger to you. But after all, you were members of the former Wolf Fang Special Forces, my brothers. Since I'm back in Ningchuan, it's impossible not to greet you. That's why I came. But as for other matters, you have to believe that I can handle them, and the facts prove that I have, so I can sit here now and talk to you. If you are really worried about me, then promise me, live your lives well, and protect your family's safety, that's enough."

Everyone was silent, unable to argue.

Yang Chen waved at Sun Yue by the door and said, "Bring the dishes up!"

Sun Yue immediately called the waiter to serve the food.

The wine was also brought up.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "Old rules, one bottle per person, no one grabs from another, finish it and open another, drink until we drop, okay?"

"No problem!"

Everyone was very straightforward. They almost pushed off everything today just to have a drunken night with Yang Chen!

After the food was served, Yang Chen raised his glass and said, "Brothers, let's drink together, to commemorate our friendship!"

"Cheers!"

...

Inside the room, everyone was drinking enthusiastically.

Outside, Sun Yue fiddled with her phone, looking somewhat bored.

She naturally wouldn't go in and drink with Yang Chen and the others, so she could only wait outside the door.

At this moment, a few young men came from not far away, evidently having drunk a lot.

When they saw Sun Yue, their eyes lit up.

Although Sun Yue's looks couldn't be said to be stunning, she was still of high quality, and with her regular exercise, she had a great figure, exuding a rare determination, making it hard not to notice.

"Miss, are you a server here? New? Why aren't you in uniform?" A few young men approached and asked.

Sun Yue glanced at them, unwilling to engage, walked aside, and continued browsing news on her phone.

The men laughed, joking, "Miss, don't just stand here, come with us to the room for a chat."

One of them even reached out trying to grab Sun Yue.

Sun Yue squinted, her eyes showing a cold glint, "Let go of me!"

"Whoa! Quite sassy!" One laughed, reaching out to touch Sun Yue's beautiful face, "Come on, hang with the brothers, you won't regret it!"

Sun Yue snorted coldly, grabbed the man's arm, and twisted it forcefully!

Crack!

A crisp sound, probably a broken wrist.

The man couldn't help but scream in pain.

The others got furious and reached out to slap Sun Yue.

"Damn! Not appreciative, dare to fight back! Looking for death!"

Sun Yue naturally dodged. These inexperienced fighters had no chance of touching her.

Sun Yue glared at them and said coldly, "I'll say it again, get lost!"

The men, their temper flaring, shouted angrily, "Damn it, if we don't take you down today, we have no face to mix in the underworld!"

They were about to gang up on Sun Yue.

"Damn!"

Before they could move, the door was suddenly kicked open, and seven or eight people rushed out!

A strong smell of alcohol surged forth.

The young men hadn't reacted yet when they were kicked down to the ground.

"Damn it, aren't you men? Ganging up on a woman!"

The ones who came out were Gao Hong and the others who were drinking inside.

They couldn't sit still after hearing the commotion outside, so they came out and took action!
