As the saying goes, the easiest way to capture a fortress is from within. What happened this time was no exception. Chang Baji’s plan was indeed perfect. Unfortunately, his senior nephew had disappointed him and found a fundamental solution to his plan. However hard they had tried, it would all in vain now. If Chang Baji knew what Gu Xiaobo had done, would he feel so angry that he would lose his cool? Probably he would clean up the faction by himself. However, it was unknown whether he had a chance to do so or not. After all, Chu Sikong was waiting for him.

After Gu Xiaobo finished sending the text, he hitched up his pants in a hurry and ran back. After that, they found the car that Chang Baji had arranged for them.

Gu Xiaobo suppressed his uneasiness as he said randomly, “Let’s go.”

Qin Sheng did not suspect Gu Xiaobo at all. He actually trusted Gu Qingyang and Gu Xiaobo very much. However, he felt somewhat uneasy in secret and did not know why.

It was not until they got dressed in new coats and put on flat caps that they marched off.

After they left the garage, Gu Qingyang drove out of the downtown area quickly. After that, he directly drove to the city highway. Following that, he moved to the Hang Chang Expressway and drove in the direction of Wuhan.

As the night view of Hangzhou City got farther and farther, Qin Sheng, who had been sitting in the back seat, did not need to hide anymore. He sat up and stared at Hangzhou City outside the window. He shook his hands as he said, “Goodbye, Hangzhou City.”

In the villa located in Xixi, after Hu Lan received Gu Xiaobo’s text, he felt refreshed immediately. What he had been looking forward to had finally arrived. After he looked at the text content, he laughed happily since he had adopted the right strategy. He had finally gotten the news and Gu Xiaobo had not disappointed him. What happened this time was like fighting between two martial masters. Though one of them had used a series of magnificent yet useless tricks, Hu Lan could simply kill him with a sword.

After Hu Lan finished reading the text, he did not even bother to pay attention to the group of people with Li Qingfeng and Luo Changgong, who looked pretty curious. He directly went to the balcony, called Feng He, and said, “Feng He, you can stop trying to locate him now. I already know which car he is in. Turn around and drive to the northwest of the downtown area now. All you need to do is follow them. You don’t need to strike out in a hurry. You should wait for my order.”

On Feng He’s side, after he lost the target, he was waiting for the latest information. It did not occur to him that Hu Lan had located Qin Sheng. After he refreshed the GPS, he figured it out in an instant because only Gu Xiaobo’s car was in the northwest of the downtown area. Obviously, Qin Sheng had been together with Gu Xiaobo, and Gu Xiaobo had betrayed him and leaked the news to them.

Feng He said complacently, “Qin Sheng, aren’t you amazing? Let’s see how you are going to run away this time.”

Hu Lan and Feng He did not doubt whether Gu Xiaobo’s information was true or not because Gu Xiaobo was not as strong as he looked at all. Meanwhile, he had been contaminated by the world of vanity. In addition, he had his own considerations. Moreover, if they wanted to confirm what Gu Xiaobo had said was true or not, all they needed to do was to confirm whether Gu Xiaobo was in the car or not. If so, Qin Sheng definitely was in the car as well. It was not possible for Gu Xiaobo to abandon his life for the sake of Qin Sheng.

After Hu Lan finished the call, Li Qingfeng asked in a hurry, “How did you know where he was? What happened?”

Hu Lan smiled and nodded.

Luo Changgong asked subconsciously, “How did you know that? Could it be that you have a source inside Qin Sheng’s group?”

“As for how, you don’t need to figure it out.” Hu Lan left both Li Qingfeng and Luo Changgong hanging on purpose. How he had known Qin Sheng’s whereabouts was his trump card. He could only show it at the last moment.

Following that, Hu Lan made arrangements as he said, “Starting from now till the end, we’ll all stay here. Nobody should leave this place. Put all of your mobiles on the table to make sure the news won’t be leaked.”

Why did Hu Lan issue such an order?

Because Gu Xiaobo had told him at that moment that Qin Sheng would leave tomorrow evening. In this case, why had Qin Sheng decided to leave tonight all of a sudden? The way Hu Lan saw it, there might be two reasons. One of them was that Qin Sheng was using a cover-up. He had said that he would leave tomorrow evening on purpose. As a matter of fact, he would leave tonight. The other was that someone had leaked the news to Qin Sheng, causing him to make up his mind spontaneously to leave tonight.

Consequently, Hu Lan had no choice but to keep an eye on Luo Changgong and Li Qingfeng’s group.

Li Qingfeng did not object to Hu Lan’s arrangements at all. Of course, he knew Hu Lan did so to be against Luo Changgong. At this moment, Luo Changgong felt pretty uneasy. He was wondering how Hu Lan had located Qin Sheng’s whereabouts. Could it be that Hu Lan had an undercover agent in Qin Sheng’s group?

Originally, Luo Changgong had been trying to get a chance to inform Qin Sheng. Hu Lan’s arrangements directly ruined his plan. Of course, he dared not rush into danger. If the Third Master really knew what he had done, he knew clearly what would happen to him then. He had no choice but to pray for Qin Sheng in secret. Meanwhile, he could not help saying to Qin Sheng secretly, “Qin Sheng, Brother Luo can only help you to this extent. Whether you will be dead or alive will depend on your own fate.”

Luo Changgong replied quite magnificently, “All right. I am OK with that, lest you will suspect me.”

Hu Lan smiled happily as he said, “Lao Luo, you have overthought it. I am doing it for the sake of security as well as ensuring that we can get things done soon.”

Li Qingfeng gave Luo Changgong a hard look. He really could not understand why the Yan Family had gotten Third Master Wu involved. In his opinion, it was not necessary to drag so many people in to kill the insignificant Qin Sheng. As a matter of fact, he could kill Qin Sheng on his own.

After Hu Lan finished making his arrangements, he looked at Mr. Chu and said in a low voice, “Mr. Chu, time for you to strike out. Feng He will contact you.”

Mr. Chu smiled gently and went out directly. In Hu Lan’s opinion, wherever Qin Sheng was, Chang Baji would be there. He definitely would not think of the possibility that Chang Baji was not with Qin Sheng currently. However, he had scored a lucky hit.

After Mr. Chu left, Hu Lan made another arrangement. This time, whether it was Li Qingfeng, Luo Changgong, or himself, they all had brought definitely good helpers with them. They intended to utilize these helpers to send a Gift Package of Death to Qin Sheng. There were six helpers in total, made up of two helpers from each family. They could set out now and would meet Feng He and Mr. Chu at that time. In Hu Lan’s opinion, they definitely would make Qin Sheng’s group die without a burial.

Since Gu Xiaobo had betrayed Qin Sheng, Qin Sheng only had Gu Qingyang to protect him. In this case, could he still be alive? One must not forget the saying: while two dogs strive for a bone, the third runs away with it. Nobody dared to make light of Qin Changan.

Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong’s arrangement was completely disturbed by Chang Baji’s perfect plan. In order not to alert the enemies, they had been hiding behind the scenes the whole time. However, since Qin Sheng and Chang Baji had divided into three branches, they really did not know which car Qin Sheng was in. Their target was Qin Sheng. The safety of the others was none of their business.

According to Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong’s original plan, they each followed one of the three branches. It turned out they were somewhat lucky. One of them followed Chang Baji and the other followed Qin Sheng the entire time. However, even those planted agents who had been following Chang Baji and Qin Sheng in the light had lost them. So of course, they, who had been in the dark, had lost their target as well.

Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong had no choice but to give up on this plan and choose a second plan. What was the second plan? According to the second plan, they would give up on following Qin Sheng and choose to follow both the Qu Family and the Yan Family instead. They had been sending people to watch other these two families in order to find out the latest information whenever they wanted to so that they could think of relative solutions.

The second plan had only one flaw, which was that if the group of people could not locate Qin Sheng, neither could they. If so, they would completely lose track of Qin Sheng at that time unless Qin Sheng showed up again using the identity that he had used in Xiamen. In that case, they could locate Qin Sheng once again. However, during this period, if an accident happened to Qin Sheng, they really did not know how they would explain it to Qin Changan at that time.

After Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong confirmed that they had both lost track of the targets, they called each other, held a discussion, and said, “We have no choice but to do so.”

Nan Gong replied, “I will report to Foster Father right away. I hope he can understand our situation. It seems that Qin Sheng was fully prepared. He should leave here safe and sound.”

Zhuang Zhou nodded quietly as he said, “You make a call first. After that, I will go there and meet you. We have no choice but to wait for the update from the villa in Xixi.” He hoped that Qin Sheng could leave Hangzhou safe and sound. Never should the issue like what had happened on Mount Jiuhua happen to him again. In that case, Qin Sheng would face a great risk.

Dozens of minutes later, Nan Gong and Zhuang Zhou met each other. They rode in the same car again and left for the villa in Xixi, intending to watch over the people there on their own.

Zhuang Zhou asked randomly, “What did he say?”

Nan Gong replied honestly, “Foster Father told us to carry out our plan first. He won’t use his connections in the government unless it is absolutely necessary.”

Upon hearing what Nan Gong had said, Zhuang Zhou felt at ease. If Qin Changan really used his connections in the government at that time, he did not think that the counterpart would dare to act randomly. However, in that case, Qin Changan’s plan would be disrupted. He might need to reconcile with Qin Sheng in advance.

In the siheyuan of the Qin Family in Sijiu City, Qin Changan was disturbed since Qin Sheng had left Hangzhou City in advance. He knew about everything going on in Hangzhou City during this period. Qin Ran, who also had been informed about what had happened to Qin Sheng, was on her way back from Europe by plane. If he had not convinced Qin Ran to stay put, Qin Ran would have struck out using her connections in the Zhu Family. If Qin Ran really had done so, there would be no way back for Qin Changan.

That was because Qin Changan did not want the Zhu Family, and especially others, to know about Qin Sheng’s information.

Though Qin Ran had been convinced, she had insisted determinedly that she needed to be informed about Qin Sheng at all times. If the same issue as what had happened on Mount Jiuhua last time happened to Qin Sheng this time, she would not see Qin Changan again for the rest of her life.

Consequently, Qin Changan had been under great pressure. After Nan Gong had called him and explained to him the current situation a moment ago, he had made such a reply.

Gongsun comforted Qin Changan as he said, “Master, rest assured that nothing will happen to the Young Master.” If Qin Sheng met with a mishap again, Qin Ran and Qin Changan would make a complete break from each other at that time. Additionally, if the Zhu Family knew the ins and outs, they probably would not spare Qin Changan.

Qin Changan did not say anything at all. After the issue this time came to an end, he definitely would reconcile with Qin Sheng. However, he wondered if Qin Sheng would resent him after he figured out everything.

In Hangzhou City, Nan Gong and Zhuang Zhou were on their way to the villa in Xixi. After Chu Sikong got a call from the planted agents, he left the villa with six people.

Nan Gong and Zhuang Zhou realized right away that Qin Sheng’s whereabouts might have been leaked because they had already found out who Chu Sikong was. As Third Master Wu’s No .1 martial master, the reason why he had shown up in Hangzhou City, of course, was to deal with Qin Sheng, since Qin Sheng had Chang Baji by his side.

After Zhuang Zhou and Nan Gong discussed it with each other, they arranged for their underlings to follow Chu Sikong immediately. After that, they rushed back right away.

At this moment, Qin Sheng, who was on the Hang Chang Expressway, did not know that the danger was coming at him. He thought he had left the Hangzhou City safe and sound.

As for Chang Baji, he was also on the Hang Rui Expressway. They would meet each other in Huang Mei Town in Hubei because Huang Mei Town was the only intersecting point of the two routes.
