Top-class Bodyguard

Chapter 1082 - 1058: He Came Out of Prison?

Ren Feng sat in the passenger seat while Long Yue drove, heading into the city. The prison gates behind them were wide open, but the prison guards watching the departing vehicle had changed expressions.

This guy turned out to be the first convict to walk out of the prison alive!

"After coming out of prison, what are your plans?" Long Yue asked.

"I think I need to find a place to live first." Ren Feng said with a blink, "I've just arrived in Yanjing and haven't found a place to stay yet. How about you take me in?"

"Don't even think about it." Long Yue said indifferently, "Aren't you living at Mr. Liou's house, enjoying yourself every night? And now you're trying to come over here?"

Ren Feng felt a bit embarrassed and laughed awkwardly, "You know about that?"

"The Dragon Group can learn about a person's affairs in mere minutes, especially here in Yanjing where many of its elites are stationed."

"But although I'm staying there, one always needs a change of scenery after a while, right?"

"Let me recommend a place for you. Once we return to the city, take Line 2 in the direction of Baihe Bridge, get off at A exit and walk straight for 500 meters, then turn right, there's a place to stay there."

"What kind of place is that?" Ren Feng asked curiously.

"Underneath the overpass."

Ren Feng's mouth twitched, but seeing Long Yue's expressionless face, he knew she'd just made a joke.

"That cold joke wasn't funny."

Ren Feng leaned back comfortably.

"After being released, aren't you planning to make some preparations?" Long Yue said calmly, "Your time in prison was a test. Now that you're out, an even bigger storm is coming."

"'The storm gathers on the mountain, the wind fills the building,' I know. No hurry, we'll deal with the soldiers when they come, and block the water as it reaches us." Ren Feng smiled slightly, "As long as they make moves, it's fine. I'm just afraid they'll become turtles hiding in their shells."

"I really don't know where you get your confidence from."

"My own strength, that's my greatest confidence," Ren Feng smiled.

...

The news of Ren Feng's release from King Yan Prison wasn't kept secret, and within an hour, people from the Yanjing Clan knew about it.

"What? He got out of prison?"

When Sima Lang heard the news, he didn't hide his surprise at all and jumped up from his chair, staring at the servant who reported to him, as if in disbelief.

But as a young master of a large family, he quickly regained his composure.

"Alright, you may leave."

Once the servant left, Sima Lang regained his calm but didn't sit down; instead, he paced back and forth.

"Looks like this person does indeed have exceptional qualities," Sima Lang smiled slightly, internally deliberating whether to form some relations with Ren Feng.

He was weighing the pros and cons of doing so. Undoubtedly, Ren Feng's relationship with Liou Yushan is colder than ice. If he gets close to Ren Feng, it would surely displease the Liou Family.

But Ren Feng's ability to walk out of King Yan Prison suggests he has value, and undoubtedly, he's worth pulling closer.

After careful thought, to avoid offending the Liou Family while still befriending Ren Feng, he considered a possible method.

Sima Lang's eyes brightened as he decided, "Come here!"

Meanwhile, at the Liou Family.

"It's only been a few days?"

Liou Jianyun, upon hearing the news, had his expression turn dark and somber after his initial shock, hands clasped behind his back, lost in thought.

"Don't let Yushan know about this for now," Liou Jianyun said.

"Actually, the young master already knows."

A servant said.

Liou Jianyun shook his head, "Since he knows, then let it be."

"Moreover, the eldest young master has returned to Yanjing today."

"Yujing is back too?" Liou Jianyun was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, the message is that he went straight to the hospital right after landing."

Liou Jianyun managed to crack a rare smile, "In that case, leave this matter to them. This way, the Patriarch won't say I interfered in such trivial matters. We have more important things to deal with."

...

At the Shen Family.

"In less than four days, Ren Feng walked out of King Yan Prison alive?"

Shen Cuo was extremely shocked upon hearing the news.

"What's Lord Buddha doing? Never hand slipped before, and now against such a lad?"

After a while, Shen Cuo processed the news.

"Looks like the Liou Family has met their match; this lad is no ordinary person."

Shen Cuo was sure that if one could walk out of King Yan Prison, either his skills are terrifying, or his connections are. Lord Buddha is a crafty one, always smiling outwardly, but his internal machinations are unmatched.

...

At the Murong Family.

"Got it, you may leave."

Murong Yan sat in the courtyard and turned her gaze to Shangguan Fei who was beside her.

"What do you think?"

Shangguan Fei smiled for a moment, "Indeed not simple. Truly, it takes a mighty dragon to cross the river. I have a feeling, if he indeed goes head to head with the Liou Family, it isn't clear who would lose."

Murong Yan said softly, "No matter who wins or loses, as long as he can oppose the Liou Family, he's worth befriending."

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend," Shangguan Fei smiled, "I think so too."

Murong Yan continued playing the zither, "If I'm not mistaken, there'll be more movement from the Liou Family. Even if the Liou Family shows tact, Liou Yushan's nature won't let Ren Feng off."

"Once the two sides are mutual losers, we extend a friendly hand to Ren Feng, he will surely lean towards us."

Murong Yan paused her zither playing.

"What's wrong? Is there an issue?"

"Smart people can naturally see through your gesture of providing help in adversity. If we want to truly win him over, we must do it before he clashes with the Liou Family."

Shangguan Fei was a bit astounded.

Murong Yan sighed, "Trust me, definitely right. But doing so carries risks; offending the Liou Family, possibly tearing faces apart, the cost is too high. Even though our two families are aligned, this decision is ultimately yours to make."

...

At the hospital.

"Why? Why!"

Before getting close, the sound of objects being smashed could be heard from the room, a cacophony of crashes.

Crack!

It sounded like a teacup shattering against the wall, and Liou Yujing's footsteps halted at the room entrance.

"Why hasn't that bastard been taken care of yet? Lord Buddha, you useless slob, saying our information is incomplete?"

Liou Yujing glanced at the furious Liou Yushan in the room and said indifferently, "Didn't Uncle teach you to be a little calmer?"

Liou Yushan turned his head suddenly, seeing a neatly dressed gentleman in a suit standing there, overjoyed, "Brother!"

This man was none other than the genius of the Liou Family—Liou Yujing.
