Inside the hospital's VIP room, different instruments were beeping, but even with these noises, they couldn't drive away the eerie atmosphere in the room, which was like a death chamber.

The usually strong and vigorous old man now looked extremely old. Apart from his heavy breathing, he lay motionless on the soft hospital bed like an obedient rag doll.

Seeing that he fell asleep, Zhao Wenting turned around and left the ward.

When I walked out of the ward, I saw Zhao Wenbin who came to visit me with a lunch box, and he happened to see me.

The cool spring breeze blew by, and on the open-air balcony at the end of the corridor, the two brothers looked at each other in silence.

"Thank you."

Zhao Wenting spoke first.

Zhao Wenbin suddenly smiled and asked knowingly, "Thank me for what? Are you thanking me for notifying you to come to the hospital?"

"Juanjuan has already told me about your situation." Zhao Wenting didn't want to keep it a secret and said directly, "Why do you want to help me?"

Zhao Wenting's tone was still cold, as if he was not thanking him from the bottom of his heart, and his tone was full of vigilance.

As the elder brother, Zhao Wenbin unconsciously turned his head to look at him. After seeing Zhao Wenting's profile, he raised his lips with an ambiguous smile, "Because in the eyes of an elder brother, protecting his younger brother is the right thing to do. Just like when you were whipped when you protected me before going out as a child, you said, 'It is the right thing for a younger brother to protect his older brother', so we both got whipped."

Zhao Wenting's body froze in place. He slowly lowered his eyelids, "Just like that?"

"How else could it be? For so many years, I have deliberately avoided you and distanced myself from you, not to snatch something from you, but to make you understand that what you care about is not what I care about." Zhao Wenbin said, turning his head to look up at the sunless sky, and the gentle smile on the corners of his lips turned into a mocking meaning, "Outsiders say that the old man is very successful and has trained such excellent people like us, but... look at us now who are cold and indifferent, what kind of success is this?"

"..."

Zhao Wenting didn't say anything and fell into silence.

"You really have never hated me? Didn't you want to be the successor of the Supernatural Bureau?" Zhao Wenting stared at him straight, he didn't want to believe what this man said now. He felt that he was hypocritical, he obviously cared so much at the beginning.

"That's just what the old man wants us to fight for. Ask yourself, are these really what you want? If your mother were still alive, now... is this really the life you want?"

Zhao Wenting was silent for a moment, then said: "You also said, what if..."

"What other choice do I have?"

"I didn't look for you before, and even deliberately distanced myself from you. One reason was because of the old man's expectations of you and me, and these expectations were imposed on us by him. The other reason was because I knew that you and I grew up in the environment created by the old man, and I deeply understand your sensitive and extremely insecure personality." Zhao Wenbin said lightly, as if he was talking about someone else's affairs. "But now, you have also met the girl you like, and there will definitely be times when you struggle because of this relationship. I think... maybe it's time to tell you these things: your mother is not dead, she was just trapped by the old man's methods back then."

"What did you say?!"

Zhao Wenting suddenly turned his head to look at him, and his usually cold face suddenly became sensitive and sharp.

"Because we are both children of the Zhao family, he needs to use different methods to educate us than ordinary people. Even though we are already in our twenties, we are still controlled by him. Your mother is not dead, and my Tina is also in his hands..."

Like a bolt from the blue, Zhao Wenting felt that everything he trusted and saw had collapsed!

"Brother," Zhao Wenbin looked reluctant. He stretched out his hand, and after seeing Zhao Wenting take a step back, he just stopped in mid-air. "Work with me. I don't want the Superpower Bureau. I just want my beloved to come back. I can help you, too."

The wind that was originally blowing on the balcony suddenly became fierce, bringing with it bursts of coolness. Zhao Wenting took a deep breath, straightened his back indifferently, and then said:

"Come to my office tomorrow to discuss these matters in detail. Aren't you going to deliver food to the old man?"

Only then did Zhao Wenbin remember that he was holding the insulated lunch box in his hand.

However, what came the next day was not the conversation between the two brothers; instead, it was the news that the Liang family army brought several small forces to overthrow the superpower police for provocation.

**

Liang family.

"Where are you going? What are you going to do?"

Liang Chuxin pulled her cousin Liang Siyuan and asked coldly, with a tone of vigilance and suspicion, just like a keen cheetah that smelled the scent of prey in advance.

"Since you are already the 'great hero' of our family, you will have endless wealth and glory even if you do nothing now. You should give the next opportunity to me, your younger brother." Liang Siyuan looked at Liang Chuxin with cunning eyes, with a nonchalant and sarcastic look on his lips.

"What do you mean? What on earth are you going to do?"

"That damn Zhao family has been domineering for so long, and our Liang family has protected them for generations. Now that their Zhao family has fallen on hard times, it's time for them to give up the position of master, right?" Liang Siyuan was held tightly by Liang Chuxin. He pushed Liang Chuxin away with impatience on his face, and walked away cursing.

"The Zhao family has fallen into decline..."

Liang Chuxin pondered over this sentence slowly, and then remained silent for a long while. Did something happen to Zhao Wenting? Or did something happen to the Zhao family? But... Mo Mo hasn't come back yet. If something really happened to him, maybe it's good that she's not here now.

Liang Chuxin's fingers were clenched stiffly at her sides, her knuckles turning white from the force.

"But...if something really happened to him, would she be even more sad when she knew it?" She murmured, and at this moment all she could think about was Mo Mo, her mind was full of her.

"Yes, the phone. I have to go get my phone back now and notify Yan Mu first!"

After thinking for a few seconds, Liang Chuxin stopped standing there. She turned and walked towards her father's courtyard.

As for the Bureau of Superpowers, upon receiving the news of the Liang family army's unusual movements, it immediately ordered the entire bureau to activate the "Level 3 Alert".

Ordinary people would never have imagined that the Bureau of Supernatural Powers would one day have an internal conflict. When the news came out that Mr. Zhao, the current head of the Bureau of Supernatural Powers, was seriously ill and hospitalized, everyone once again felt like the sky was falling and looted all the supplies in supermarkets and stores, and rarely went out and stayed at home.

At this critical moment, the brothers Zhao Wenting and Zhao Wenbin simultaneously participated in interviews and reports by TV stations and various media, which surprised the public! The rumor that the two brothers were at odds with each other was refuted.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of Cenlinshan tribal troops appeared.

It turned out that under the deployment of Zhao Wenting, Yan Mu and Song Tianjiao, as representatives of the Ability Bureau, quietly sneaked into the cracks of Cenlin Mountain to lobby the five major tribes and persuaded them to fight as reinforcements for the Ability Bureau. The success of this strategy undoubtedly brought great confidence to the people within the Ability Bureau and the public.
