Years turn into wind

Chapter 100 Undercurrent of Conspiracy

The next morning, Cheng Yuwei rose, gathered herself, and headed to the study, intending to present her latest defense plan to Ling Xiaotian. However, upon entering, she saw Ling Xiaotian discussing confidential intelligence with his adjutant. Upon seeing her enter, Ling Xiaotian smiled slightly and gestured for his adjutant to step aside. He stood up, walked over to Cheng Yuwei, and whispered, "You've arrived just in time. I was just about to discuss the situation with the remaining Cang Lang forces."

When Cheng Yuwei heard the words "remnants of the Cang Lang", her brows furrowed slightly, and a serious look appeared on her face: "Could the remnants of the Cang Lang have any new movements?"

Ling Xiaotian nodded, his eyes slightly cold. "Intelligence shows that the remnants of the Cang Lang are plotting a major operation against us. They may be placing poison in the armory in an attempt to destroy our combat effectiveness. This plan is so thorough that it even utilizes spies within our ranks."

Cheng Yuwei was surprised after hearing this: "It seems that they have already reached out to our army. The spies may have been lurking for a long time, waiting for this critical moment."

Ling Xiaotian's eyes flashed with determination: "They think they can attack us in secret, so let them taste the bitterness of their own medicine."

Cheng Yuwei immediately returned to her room, compiled all the chemistry knowledge she had learned, and quickly developed a poison detection solution that could quickly detect whether a poison had been placed in the armory. She took the sample to Ling Xiaotian's office and presented her work to him.

Ling Xiaotian looked at her confident expression and felt warm in his heart: "Yuwei, you always have such a solution."

Cheng Yuwei smiled slightly: "Since I have chosen to stay with you, I will naturally do my best to help you protect this family business."

Ling Xiaotian gave her a loving look, then ordered his men to immediately conduct tests at the armory. Using Cheng Yuwei's test fluid, they found some suspicious substances in the armory. Several suspected soldiers were captured on the spot, and subsequent interrogation confirmed their connection to the remaining Canglang members.

As night fell, Cheng Yuwei and Ling Xiaotian stood side by side on the terrace of their mansion, gazing out at the vast night sky. After a day of intense investigation, the enemy's plot had finally been shattered, and they both felt a sense of relief.

"Xiaotian, I'm becoming increasingly clear that the remnants of the Canglang will not give up easily, and they will continue to wait for an opportunity to strike. From now on, we must be more careful." Cheng Yuwei spoke slowly, with a firm tone in her voice.

Ling Xiaotian gently held her hand, his tone filled with endless tenderness: "No matter how insidious they are, with you by my side, I will not fear any challenge. Yuwei, you make me stronger and make me more determined to protect you."

Cheng Yuwei smiled slightly, tears of emotion gleaming in her eyes. She held his hand tightly, her heart firmly fixed: "Xiaotian, no matter how many difficulties the future holds, I will always be by your side and face everything with you."

Ling Xiaotian lowered his head and said softly, "Yuwei, meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life."

The two embraced each other in the night, their hearts tightly connected. In this moment, their feelings seemed to have transcended worldly disputes and turned into an unforgettable dependence.

Just as the two of them felt a moment of warmth, they heard hurried footsteps in the distance. The adjutant hurried over, his face filled with anxiety. "Marshal, the spy we arrested has suddenly died of poisoning. It seems someone is eager to silence him."

Ling Xiaotian's expression darkened upon hearing this. "Sure enough, they're well-prepared, even resorting to poison. It seems the enemy we're facing is more dangerous than we imagined."

Cheng Yuwei was also filled with vigilance, with a sharp glint in her eyes: "Since the other party is so ruthless, we must be doubly careful. Although we have thwarted their conspiracy this time, they will never stop."

Ling Xiaotian held her hand tightly, his eyes filled with determination. "Yuwei, as long as you are here, I have nothing to fear. You and I will walk side by side. No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, we will definitely be able to overcome it."

Cheng Yuwei stared at him and nodded slightly. She understood that she was no longer just an ordinary traveler, but Ling Xiaotian's partner and his indispensable support.
