Half a day later.
When night fell, the famous lake area on the northwest coast of England was quiet and serene.
Near an ancient city called Keswick that was built during the Victorian era, there was a classical British castle that had stood there since god knows when, and a few banners with complicated patterns fluttered in the wind.
In the main hall in the middle of the castle, colorful crystal lamps hung on the dome, and under the simple murals, pieces of exquisitely carved art were placed in rows.
On the handmade wool carpet of the Persian Gulf, on the big sofa made of agarwood that would not rot for a hundred years, a man yawned and glanced at the big clock in the corner from time to time.
If one did not notice the man's scarlet clothes, perhaps such a scene would not be too strange.
Suddenly, the outer door of the hall was opened, and a few figures hurried in.
The one in front was an old white man with silver hair but a ruddy face, wearing a gentleman's black suit, and a small pocket watch hanging on his chest.
And beside the old man, there was a handsome young man with blonde hair. Other than being uneasy, there was a more complicated expression on his face.
When the silver-haired old man saw the man on the sofa, and then saw a big sack that was oozing scarlet liquid, which was thrown on the carpet in the middle of the hall without hesitation, the corner of his eyes couldn't help but twitch a few times.
But very quickly, the old man still walked forward with a smile and said, "What a rare guest, Your Majesty Pluto, it's been many years since you came to our Rothschild as a guest."
The one who was lying on the sofa for a while was Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng scratched his ear and said with an evil smile, "You don't seem to be very welcome."
"Your Majesty must be joking, there is no one in Rothschild who is not welcome," the old man said warmly.
Yang Cheng was not interested in dealing with this family that integrated business into their blood, so he directly pointed to the big sack on the carpet and said, "Take a look, I personally brought you a gift."
The old man took a deep breath and signaled the two bodyguards behind him to step forward and open the sack.
After the two men stepped forward, they held their breaths and carefully loosened the heavy sack …
A particularly strong stench rushed out, even causing the two bodyguards to hold back and not vomit!
Squeezed together in the sack was a bunch of wolf heads with red eyes and fangs!
The faces of these wolf heads were particularly hideous, as if they saw an incomparably terrifying scene when their heads were cut off!
"Wolf … Werewolf?"
Yang Cheng stood up, took off his shirt, and threw it on the ground. He put his hands on his waist and said, "These are all the core members of the Klyuchevsky family that I killed for half a day. They are all in this sack. You can take a look."
The old man's body trembled a little, "Your Majesty Pluto's body, why?"
"Didn't you want to send Jane to the Klyuchevsky clan?" Yang Chen sneered, "Now that their clan is gone, can you cancel the marriage?"
The old man's footsteps were a little unstable. The blonde man beside him immediately supported him and looked at Yang Chen helplessly.
"Your Majesty Nether King, aren't you usually not involved in international disputes? Aren't you afraid of causing dissatisfaction from all sides by doing this?" The old man tried his best to remain calm as he spoke.
"It's true that I don't interfere in international affairs, but I will never give up on the people around me." Yang Cheng said, "Jane's life is up to her. Unless she is willing to marry, no one is allowed to have other thoughts. I don't care if you want to make money, I don't care if you want to use war to get rich, but you better not disturb my life. "
In the end, Yang Cheng smiled disdainfully, "Dissatisfied? If anyone is dissatisfied, they can stand up! I will kill anyone who dares to oppose me! Don't talk reason with me, and don't talk about conditions. Ever since I became sensible, this world only has the law of life and death. By the way … The werewolves of the Klyuchevsky family can at least resist for half a day. I wonder how many hours a human like Rothschild can resist? "
After hearing this, the old man couldn't help but take a step back and slowly lowered his head.
Yang Chen faintly glanced at him, then said to Edward who had been silent all this while, "Edward, try to persuade the members of your clan who think they can control everything with money. Although you're considered half a friend of mine, it doesn't mean that your clan is the same."
Edward smiled wryly, "I thought you wouldn't do such a thing in the two years since you returned to Hua Xia. I didn't expect you to do it again. The Russian government has entered a level one military alert, they are worried that you will go crazy and implicate their leaders. "
Yang Cheng said, "Let them be. Prepare a plane for me. I'll go back to Hua Xia after I take a shower."
…
Zhonghai. Dawn had just arrived, but the sun was already shining brightly.
In the summer in the south, the sun always rose early.
In the western suburbs, Lin Ruoxi was standing in front of her house in a light grey dress. Her hair danced in the wind, making her look like a fairy of the moon.
However, it was not difficult to see the red lines in the woman's eyes. There was fatigue caused by a night of not sleeping well.
Since yesterday afternoon, Yang Cheng suddenly went abroad for "business", there had been no news until now.
Lin Ruoxi felt a little scared. Regarding Jane's matter, Yang Cheng was not angry, nor did he raise any other opinions, which made her feel worried.
At this time, a white Cadillac slowly stopped on the road in front of Lin Ruoxi.
A woman dressed in a colorful black dress leisurely got out of the car. Behind her was a dignified middle-aged man.
It was Yuan Hewei and Yang Jieyu.
Yang Jieyu saw Lin Ruoxi standing at the door of the courtyard and showed a happy smile. She enthusiastically hugged Lin Ruoxi, "Yo, Ruoxi, are you waiting for auntie?"
Lin Ruoxi was still a little shy, but she smiled unnaturally and nodded. She had just received a call from Yang Jieyu, saying that she had something to talk about, so she came out to wait when it was almost time.
"My dear niece-in-law is so sensible. You know to come out and wait for us. Tsk, tsk. Ruoxi, your husband is so rude. Why did he let you come out alone?" Yang Jieyu laughed and scolded.
Lin Ruoxi's eyes dimmed, "He... is not back yet."
Yang Jieyu had expected it and said with a smile, "Then he will be back soon. Let's go inside and talk about business when Yang Cheng comes back."
Lin Ruoxi wondered why Yang Jieyu was so sure that Yang Cheng would be home soon, but she didn't ask much and invited the couple into the house first.
Guo Xuehua was also very happy to know that her sister and brother-in-law were coming. Although they were in Zhonghai, Yuan Hewei and his wife were busy with the Yang and Yuan family's businesses in Jiangnan, so they didn't have time to meet each other. She didn't know what made them come here so early in the morning.
The house was bustling early in the morning. Other than Zhenxiu who had gone out to work early in the morning, no one else could be seen. Since they hadn't eaten breakfast yet, they sat down to eat the leftover dumplings from the Dragon Boat Festival and drank porridge while chatting and laughing while waiting for Yang Chen's arrival.
"Jieyu, you said that Yang Cheng will be back soon. How did you know?" Guo Xuehua asked curiously.
Yang Jieyu said with a smile, "Dad sent someone to inform us. We could have asked Secretary Fang Zhongping to tell Yang Cheng about it, but Fang Zhongping seemed to be frightened by Yang Cheng and didn't dare to come. So, he asked us to come and talk to him."
Guo Xuehua was very concerned about her son, "Don't keep us in suspense. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Did Yang Cheng get into trouble again? "
Yuan Hewei laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, if it's a bad thing, how can we have breakfast with you so leisurely? It's a good thing. Yang Cheng made a great contribution to Hua Xia this time. He saved thousands of people. "
"To be exact, Yang Cheng played the role of a matchmaker. If it wasn't for Yang Cheng, Miss Jane wouldn't have provided such a big help," Yang Jieyu said.
Lin Ruoxi didn't say anything until she heard the name "Jane". She then asked, "Auntie, what did Miss Jane do? Can you tell us?"
When Yang Jieyu heard Lin Ruoxi call her "Auntie", her heart felt like it had eaten honey. This was too rare for the shy Lin Ruoxi!
"Actually, there's nothing to hide. We're all on the same side. The government and the military had been suppressing the news, but in fact, Zhong Hai and the Su Province had been targeted by a batch of genetic weapons, which could cause mass casualties at any time. But now, thanks to Miss Yiling's efforts, the crisis had been averted. The central government is very grateful for Miss Jane's help. They hope that through Yang Cheng, they can invite Miss Jane to Beijing to express their gratitude. Secondly, they can discuss future cooperation, "Yang Jieyu said.
Lin Ruoxi was surprised, while Guo Xuehua and Mother Wang were scared.
As soon as Yang Jieyu opened her mouth, she roughly explained the situation.
Before Yang Cheng left Hua Xia, he asked Jane to provide the Security Bureau with the information about the antidote for "Maria's Tribute". Since they already had the finished product, all they had to do was to copy it.
Although "Maria's Tribute" was powerful, its biggest drawback was that it needed nearly three days to take effect. Under such circumstances, even if all the missiles were successfully launched, the military would be able to produce a sufficient amount of antidote within two days.
The Giant Whale Society's amulet was rendered useless, and they were wiped out by the Jiangnan army and navy.
"Oh right," Yang Jieyu added, "Ruoxi, did you know that the Klyuchevsky family that attended the international trade conference, Maxim, has been declared a crime against humanity by the Russian government. All the Klyuchevsky family's businesses have been confiscated by the Russian government. This time, they used genetic weapons to threaten the Hua Xia government. Luckily, Yang Cheng found out in time and asked Jane to prepare the antidote. "
Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, but very quickly, her calm mind allowed her to analyze and understand many things.
It seemed that Maxim's persistence in pursuing Jane wasn't because of his fiancée, but because of the conspiracy.
Out of pure selfishness, she had asked Yang Chen to let go of Jane so that Maxim could take her away … If Yang Chen hadn't found the key, there might have been a catastrophe!
Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but hate herself. Why did she only think about her feelings? Why didn't she think about what kind of person he was? When did she become so narrow-minded and short-sighted?
Right at this moment, the roar of a car came from the entrance of the mansion. Guo Xuehua was elated. "It's Yang Cheng's car. He's finally back!"
