t Yang Chen with a look of expectation.

Yang Chen’s lips twitched.
His grandfather was taking revenge on him, he wasn’t going to let him have fun tonight but he would feel embarrassed if he said no.

Lin Ruoxi had been listening to their conversation quietly but now she was also staring at Yang Chen with a look of expectation, curious of the stories he would tell Lanlan.

Yang Gongming feigned ignorance and took a sip of his tea, “Young man, I know you have good stamina but it’s good to refrain yourself sometimes…”

On the other side of the backyard, Yang Lie stood anxiously outside his parent’s room.

He took a deep breath before knocking on their door.

Seconds later, Guo Xuehua opened the door and she smiled when she saw Yang Lie, “What’s wrong, Lie’er? Didn’t you say you were helping your father?”

Yang Lie chuckled, “It’s almost done and I can’t help much with the rest anyway.”

Guo Xuehua nodded her head, “Why did you come to look for me? Is everything alright?”

“It’s…it’s nothing much, I just wanted to check on you.
You must be startled after cousin Guo Yue and this morning’s incident, right?” Yang Lie sounded worried.

Guo Xuehua held his hand with a gratified expression, “I know you care about me a lot.
I’m fine, I feel much better now after some rest.
Your brother always scares me, he’s too impulsive.”

Yang Lie looked at her with a complex gaze.
He tightened his jaw before telling her, “Mom, you have to care more about your health.
Don’t worry too much and take care of yourself.”

Guo Xuehua thought he sounded weird but she smiled at him, “Why are you talking about this suddenly? You sound odd.”

“Humans can change,” Yang Lie sighed, “Sometimes even if we don’t want to change, we’re forced to make a decision and change our lives because of certain people or incidents.”

“You sound even odder now.
Lie’er, are you in trouble? Tell me.
If mom can’t help you, your grandfather and father can help you.
You can beg for your brother’s help too.” Guo Xuehua was concerned.

Yang Lie shook his head, “No, I just thought about it.
I’m relieved that you’re fine now.
I need to go out now, I still have military work to deal with.”

Guo Xuehua didn’t think much about it and patted his shoulders, “Go, you don’t have to worry about mom.”

Yang Lie turned around and walked for a few steps before turning back to wave at Guo Xuehua.

“Goodbye, mom.”

Guo Xuehua waved back at him.
Even though she was surprised by Yang Lie’s sudden politeness, she was happy to see this change.

However, when Yang Lie turned his back towards her, silver light sparkled in his eyes!

He no longer looked gentle.

During evening, in a wooden pavilion at the outskirts of Beijing, Yang Lie stood still with his arms behind him.

He was looking at the city centre with an unreadable gaze when Luo Cuishan walked up the hill with an expectant smile.

“Is everything ready?” Yang Lie sighed and asked.

Luo Cuishan giggled, “Ngy will be meeting with the officials from the Embassy of Germany at a nearby Liyuan Tea House at 11 o’clock tonight but he’ll arrive at 8 for dinner and tea.
We have plenty of time.”

“Very good…” Yang Lie nodded.

Luo Cuishan smiled brightly at him, “Little Cripple, have you really made a decision? Are you giving up on the opportunity to replace Yang Chen and take over the Yang clan?”

“Hmph,” Yang Lie snorted, “Opportunity? I spent too much time gathering so many people but they’re all useless.
I’ve failed to kick Yang Chen out of the circle this time and there won’t be another chance to do so.
He would’ve killed me today if it wasn’t for Guo Xuehua stopping him.
I bet he’ll try and kill me again.
Rather than waiting for him to find him and have my identity exposed, I should take down the Ning clan when he still hasn’t made up his mind…although Yang Chen will still be an obstacle for me in China, at least we’ve made a huge step with the resources from the Ning clan.”
