Zhu Yanyi wrapped her arms around Zhu Xiangyao’s neck. "Xiangyao, my waist still hurts from yesterday," she said in a sweet, coquettish voice.
"It’s okay, I’ll massage it for you." Zhu Xiangyao smiled gently. He carried Liu Peipei into the room. When the door opened again, only Zhu Xiangyao came out.
From outside, one could see someone sleeping deeply on the bed. Torn clothes were scattered all over the floor, showing how intense things had been. The other person involved was clearly exhausted to sleep.
Zhu Xiangyao looked very satisfied. He walked to the wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of red wine, and stared at its color. "Little Divine Doctor, Zhu Shunyao… I want to see how I can’t make a name for myself in the capital."
No one knew Zhu Xiangyao was in the capital, living comfortably. When Silver Fox returned to his residence, Old Ma handed him the file on Chonglou.
"Chonglou?" Silver Fox raised an eyebrow slightly. "A good codename. It’s the name of a herb. But that herb is bitter, slightly toxic, and cold. You need real skill to handle it." After reading the file, he flicked it and said to Old Ma, "Send a copy of this file to Yan Aohan."
"Boss, you’re not going after Chonglou?" Old Ma asked.
"Why bother? Is this guy worthy of my attention? Besides, he thinks he has ability. I want to see how he tames the people in the Capital Holy Church. Does he really think everyone listens to the Godfather’s word? He underestimates everyone. He’s just an outsider clown, providing some entertainment."
Silver Fox’s face showed disdain. "It seems our Godfather is truly old. He uses such a person to replace Yin Mei. Yin Mei wasn’t in my eyes either, but his ability was definitely better than Chonglou’s."
Old Ma agreed. Their boss didn’t even respect the Godfather. Remembering his conversation with the Godfather, Silver Fox had predicted the questions and provided answers, helping him pass smoothly. So, he wasn’t worried about this sudden Chonglou.
"Is it okay to send info to Yanluo in the capital? What if the Godfather finds out?" Old Ma asked seriously.
"If you leak your tracks just by sending a message, Old Ma, you shouldn’t stay by my side. I don’t keep useless people," Silver Fox glanced at Old Ma.
Old Ma admitted he spoke foolishly. Without needing urging, he hurried off to send the information to Yan Aohan.
Yan Aohan received the file, sneered, and handed it to Zhu Yanyi. "Here, news about Zhu Xiangyao."
Zhu Yanyi took the file. Surprised by Yan Aohan’s expression, she looked down and laughed. "Zhu Xiangyao, codename Chonglou, replacing Yin Mei in the Holy Church, causing trouble in the capital. Is the Godfather’s brain broken?"
Yan Aohan chuckled. "He’s not broken. He just wants the Zhu family to kill each other."
Zhu Yanyi smiled faintly. "Doesn’t she know? I protect my own, but I’m also cold-hearted. People I don’t care about don’t matter, no matter their relation to me. Besides, Zhu Xiangyao doesn’t represent the Zhu family. If the Godfather wants the Zhu family to fight, I’ll just make sure Zhu Xiangyao isn’t part of the Zhu family. If she’s not family, how can there be infighting?"
"If she knew that, Master Wisdom wouldn’t have died. The value of the living often exceeds the dead. I think she’s realized this in the capital these past few days," Yan Aohan looked at Zhu Yanyi. "Ani, do you still think about the past regarding Master Wisdom?"
"People who die can’t come back. I understand that," Zhu Yanyi gave Yan Aohan a reassuring look. "But Zhu Xiangyao, though I don’t care about her, her appearance will still be annoying. Especially for my dad. Dad says she cut ties with the fourth branch, but if she knows about Zhu Xiangyao, she might be sad."
"He won’t be," Yan Aohan smiled. "Ani, Dad isn’t that kind of person. If he were, he wouldn’t have asked Haifeng and others to break Zhu Xiangyao’s legs and hands back then."
After reading all the files, Zhu Yanyi laughed again. "Look here. The woman she’s living with is also an acquaintance."
"Liu Peipei? Isn’t she the woman who pushed Yan Li? The one whose leg was broken by Taishu No.7, and you refused to treat?" Yan Aohan’s eyes showed surprise. "Is this a scumbag meeting a bitch?"
"Made for each other. Turtles and tortoises naturally breed with their own kind," Zhu Yanyi said cheerfully. "Looks like this is good news."
"Silver Fox really put in effort to tell us this good news," Yan Aohan said calmly.
Zhu Yanyi sighed helplessly. Silver Fox was just acting like his old self. He didn’t want to deal with Zhu Xiangyao, so he threw her to them. But since they hadn’t planned to let Zhu Xiangyao go anyway, Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan had to admit they owed Silver Fox a favor, even if they knew they were being used.
Zhu Yanyi finished the file and handed it back to Yan Aohan. "How do you plan to deal with Chonglou?"
Since she joined the Holy Church, Zhu Xiangyao was no longer just Zhu Xiangyao. With the codename Chonglou, they would call her Chonglou. This showed Zhu Yanyi’s stance: Zhu Xiangyao had no relation to the Zhu family.
Yan Aohan thought for a moment. "We should tell Dad. Just in case Zhu Xiangyao tries to find him secretly."
This was a precaution. Although Yan Aohan was confident Zhu Xiangyao couldn’t get close to Zhu Shunyao, accidents could happen. So, Zhu Shunyao needed to be prepared.
"Okay, let’s tell her. Tomorrow we’re seeing off Uncle Lei Yao and others. We’ll tell Uncle Lei Yao then too. Zhu Xiangyao shouldn’t be a Zhu family descendant anymore," Zhu Yanyi decided.
"Agreed. Since he changed his name to Chonglou, it means Zhu Xiangyao no longer exists," Yan Aohan said. Although it was just a codename, he defined it as a name change.
Since Yan Aohan said it was a name change, it was a name change. No matter what others said, it remained a name change.
Zhu Yanyi nodded cheerfully. "You really hit the nail on the head. I think the same way."
