Why did you provoke me?

Nangong Tianshou agreed to Yu Meng's request to guard the house.

That night, Yu Meng led Jing Er and ten team members away under the cover of darkness.

A sign indicating that Yu Meng was in seclusion was hung outside her room in the guild hall.

Zhou Jingyan and Nangong Tianshou stood at a side entrance of the clubhouse, watching the car disappear into the night.

"Third Uncle, she trusts you a lot."

"I wonder what serious incident happened that made her leave in such a hurry."

Their figures blended into the night. "Go back to sleep. I'm tired too. We can talk about it tomorrow."

"it is good."

The next day, when Secretary Wu came to find Yu Meng with a pile of documents, she learned that Yu Meng had left again.

Nangong Tianshou looked at Secretary Wu with great interest. "You found it?"

Secretary Wu's dark circles were very obvious. Without any ceremony, he picked out several documents and pushed them in front of Nangong Tianshou, saying, "Take a look at them first, and then we'll talk about the rest."

Nangong Tianshou remained seated. "I can see your guild's secrets too?"

"See? Calm down in a bit." Secretary Wu leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and pressed his temples with his hands.

"Did I really watch it?"

"See? Then tell me what to do," Secretary Wu urged without even opening his eyes.

I casually opened the folder above.

The list of bone-drawing masters from the eight major bases is at the top.

"How do you have something like this? This is top secret."

"Look down."

Nangong Tianshou flipped through the pages faster and faster. By the end, his face was so dark it could drip water. His breathing became uneven, increasingly rapid.

Secretary Wu suddenly opened his eyes. "Chief Nangong, calm down, calm down. Come on, take a deep breath, yes, take a deep breath."

Secretary Wu patted his back and chest to comfort him, and Nangong Tianshou finally caught his breath.

His hands trembled as he pointed at the things on the table, "Where did these come from? Where did you get them?"

Secretary Wu did not reply, but sent a message to Qian Chuan directly.

Then he looked at Nangong Tianshou and said, "Don't get excited. I'll have Qian Chuan take a look at you. If you want revenge, your current body isn't up to it."

Nangong Tianshou was not someone anyone could persuade. "I'm asking you where you got all this stuff?" he glared at Secretary Wu through gritted teeth.

"Yu Meng brought them back. After she returned from the research institute, she was ambushed. Following the clues she obtained, she dismembered the person responsible, and these are the things she brought back."

Nangong Tianshou slammed his eyes shut. He wondered why Yu Meng had been so calm when she brought up the matter; it turned out she had already taken her revenge.

Qian Chuan arrived quickly and examined Nangong Tianshou. "Your body is on the verge of collapse. You must control your emotions and avoid extreme highs and lows."

Nangong Tianshou looked at him without saying a word, his fist clenched so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand were bulging.

"Uncle Nangong, nothing is more important than life. If you lose your life, all the regrets are just that. But if you're still alive, there's always a chance to turn things around." Qian Chuan's voice was very soft.

Secretary Wu stood up and walked outside. "When I first found out, I was just as angry as you were. Teacher Yu asked me if I wanted to make a scene. You know, my first reaction wasn't happiness, but worry about whether she would be in danger."

I'm saying this not because I'm betraying the past, but because I cherish the present more. I won't try to persuade you; you have to figure this out yourself. I'm going to get some sleep. Qian Chuan, don't rush off; stay with him."

Qian Chuan found a chair and sat down, taking out two vials of medicine from his pocket. "Having survived two brushes with death, Uncle, what else can't you let go of?"

I handed him the medicine. "This is for emergency use. If there's a next time, even with this, I might not be able to make it in time."

Then, looking at the ring on his finger, she asked, "Was it a gift from Teacher Yu?"

Nangong Tianshou nodded.

"This is good stuff. I saw it at Aunt Qing's place. Aunt Qing secretly gave me some powder. It has unknown ingredients, but it's very active."

"Qingyuan spoils you too much. If Yumeng finds out about this, she won't give Qingyuan any good things next time. Keep these kinds of words to yourself from now on." Nangong Tianshou's voice was very soft.

"I've got it."

"You should go back too. I'm fine now. You said it yourself, I've been through the gates of hell twice, I'm not that fragile."

"How about I take you back to get some sleep?" Qian Chuan asked softly.

Before Nangong could answer, Zhou Jingyan opened the door and came in, bringing with him a chill. "Third Uncle, how are you?"

"What brings you here?"

"Uncle Wu said you were angry, so I ran over. Who upset you?" She glanced at Qian Chuan after saying that.

"Who dares to mess with me here? Oh, this is Qian Chuan, your Aunt Hua's adopted son."

Zhou Jingyan quickly extended his hand. "Hello, I'm Zhou Jingyan. My third uncle's health is thanks to you. I've always wanted to thank you, but I haven't had the chance to meet you."

Qian Chuan mechanically extended his hand. "Don't be so polite. He's my uncle too. It's only right that I take care of him."

Qian Chuan found it a bit unbelievable. This was the head of the Zhou family, a figure of immense stature, yet he had shaken hands with a researcher like himself.

"Thank you anyway. Just let me know if you need anything. Do you have enough research materials? I'll have someone send you some." Zhou Jinyan's tone softened.

"No need, really no need, it's what I should do. Uncle Nangong needs to rest, I was just about to take him home, why don't we go together?"

"it is good."

Zhou Jingyan and Qian Chuan helped Nangong Tianshou up, one on each side. Nangong Tianshou was initially unwilling, but his body involuntarily staggered, so he did not refuse.

"I'm really getting old; I can't even walk these few steps anymore." His tone was full of desolation.

"Uncle Nangong, your body is most susceptible to extreme emotional fluctuations. If you get angry, all your previous efforts will be wasted," Qian Chuan said as they walked, without hiding anything.

In his view, things should be made more serious, otherwise he would have his own ideas and wouldn't care at all.

After taking a few steps, Nangong Tianshou looked at Zhou Jingyan and said, "Go and collect all the documents on the table and take them back. I want to take a good look at them."

Zhou Jingyan agreed and went back to organize the materials. The first thing he saw was the overview table. After flipping through it, he understood why his third uncle was so angry.

Without hesitation, I packed the materials and took them back.

……

It's about Yu Meng.

The car was moving very fast, and Yu Meng looked at the black reflection outside.

"Jing Er, are you sure we're not being followed?"

"Yes, I sent people out one after another three days ago. After we left, they will pay attention to every unfamiliar car or person."

"That's good. We can't let anyone know I'm not at the club."

"Where are we going?" Jing Er asked as she drove.

"Let's go to Feng County. We'll go and provide support for Jing San and his team."

Jing'er's eyes lit up. "This is great! We've come out of nowhere! How grateful will they be?"

Yu Meng glanced at him but didn't say anything.
