Chapter 1041
"Alright, I’m going now." Luo Gang stepped out and gathered Pei Tiandu and the others. She briefed them on Zhu Xiangyao’s situation and Zhu Yanyi’s suspicions. Then, she turned to Chen Lu and Qiu Meiyun. "Chen Lu, Qiu Meiyun, you must protect Zhu Yanli even more closely. Niu Jiu and Peng Ming, the same applies to you. Although we can’t yet tell if Zhu Xiangyao will target the children, the third and fourth branches of the Zhu family are not on good terms. She might go after Doumiao too. So, you must stay by her side at all times."
"Yes." Whether it was Chen Lu, Qiu Haiyun, Niu Jiu, or Peng Ming, they agreed without a second word.
"I’m going to find Zhang Haifeng now. While I’m away, Tiandu, Li Yang, you must protect the young miss," Luo Gang continued.
"Boss, rest assured, we will protect the young miss," Pei Tiandu answered seriously.
Seeing that the arrangements here were mostly settled, Luo Gang added, "You can also talk to Zhao Cong and the others. Don’t think we didn’t know they were there just because they skipped dinner the past few days. This matter concerns everyone, so let them contribute their share."
Luo Gang went to find Zhang Haifeng, who was currently overwhelmed with work. Upon hearing Luo Gang’s purpose, Zhang Haifeng agreed readily. "No problem with that. I’ll have people keep Zhu Xiangyao under surveillance day and night. If anything suspicious happens, we’ll deal with it immediately."
Seeing Zhang Haifeng’s attitude, Luo Gang nodded in satisfaction. "Haifeng, Venerable Yanluo isn’t here, but we are. Protecting the young miss is our responsibility. We cannot betray Venerable Yanluo’s trust."
Zhang Haifeng was momentarily confused. "What does Venerable Yanluo’s trust have to do with this?"
Luo Gang glanced at Zhang Haifeng and sneered. "What are you pretending for, you big head? Are you made of tofu dregs? Can’t you see the relationship between Venerable Yanluo and our young miss?"
"What relationship? They just knew each other early on. At most, the little girl saved Venerable Yanluo back then," Zhang Haifeng said, still looking clueless.
"Fine, then you can keep not knowing. But I know this: if anything happens to our young miss, and Venerable Yanluo finds out it’s because we didn’t do our job properly, he’ll make us wish we were dead," Luo Gang said with a grin.
Zhang Haifeng shivered directly. Then, looking at Luo Gang with disbelief, he said, "Luo Gang, don’t treat me like a child. I don’t believe such talk. No, I must ask the boss myself." He immediately picked up the phone to call Yan Aohan.
"Boss, this is Zhang Haifeng." As soon as the call connected, Zhang Haifeng started talking rapidly. "Luo Gang just came to see me. she said Zhu Xiangyao seems to be planning to harm Ani and her sister. It looks like she wants to take revenge on them or sell them to the south or something."
"Keep a tight watch on Zhu Xiangyao. Better to kill the wrong person than let one slip. If Ani suffers even the slightest injury, I will hold you accountable," Yan Aohan said coldly.
Zhang Haifeng felt his mind freeze for a long moment before he spoke. "Boss, do you really have some unspeakable intentions toward Ani?"
"Unspeakable?" Yan Aohan laughed coldly. "What do you mean by unspeakable? He is just too young, so I haven’t announced it to the world yet. When he comes of age, I will naturally inform everyone. He is the only Queen of Yanluo in Jingdu. Do you understand?"
"Boss, you’re an old cow eating tender grass," Zhang Haifeng said. Now he finally understood. He had already cared about Zhu Yanyi, and after hearing Yan Aohan’s words, he knew he had to be on his highest alert.
