Years turn into wind

Late at night, Ling Xiaotian and Cheng Yuwei sat in their study, silently studying the intelligence on the desk. The movements of the remaining Cang Lang factions were clear—not only were they secretly gathering, but they had even formed alliances with various factions, intending to launch a surprise attack within Ling Xiaotian's sphere of influence.

Cheng Yuwei looked at Ling Xiaotian's slightly furrowed brows and gently held his hand: "Xiaotian, this crisis seems very difficult, but I believe we can deal with it together."

Ling Xiaotian nodded slowly, a determined glint in his eyes. "I already knew they wouldn't give up easily. This time, if they try to make a comeback, we'll give them a blow they can never recover from."

Cheng Yuwei took a deep breath and said calmly: "Since they are unwilling to let go of their hatred, then we will not sit idly by and wait for death. Since the situation is like this, it is a good opportunity to solve the problem once and for all."

That night, Ling Xiaotian's plan gradually took shape. Cheng Yuwei, in charge of gathering more detailed intelligence, began an in-depth investigation into the background of the remaining Cang Lang members. She remained awake almost all night, poring over and sorting through intelligence slip after intelligence slip, mapping out the enemy's power structure. After meticulous analysis, they discovered that the Cang Lang remnants were entrenched in the military, political circles, and even the business world, and their influence was considerable.

The next morning, Ling Xiaotian awoke to find Cheng Yuwei sitting motionless at her desk. Her eyes gleamed calmly as she meticulously analyzed the documents in her hands. Ling Xiaotian gently walked over and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Take a break, Yuwei."

Cheng Yuwei looked up, her eyes filled with determination. "This time we must hit the target with one strike. There can be no mistakes. The enemy is in the dark, we are in the light. We need to carefully control their every move." She paused and smiled, "But with you by my side, I'm not afraid."

Ling Xiaotian smiled slightly, sat down beside her, and said softly: "Yuwei, you have always been my comrade. Let us move forward together and face the wind and rain together."

To ensure Ling Xiaotian's deployment was more thorough, Cheng Yuwei decided to personally infiltrate the enemy's territory to gather intelligence. Although this entailed numerous dangers, she knew that only by personally investigating could she obtain the most accurate information. Ling Xiaotian initially disagreed, but under her resolute attitude, he reluctantly agreed.

The night before their departure, Ling Xiaotian nervously held Cheng Yuwei's hand, a faint worry in his heart. He stared into her eyes and whispered, "Yuwei, promise me you'll return safely."

Cheng Yuwei smiled slightly and held his hand tightly with her backhand: "Xiaotian, don't worry, I won't take any unnecessary risks."

That night, they almost didn't sleep, snuggling together, as if using each other's warmth to warm their restless hearts. Cheng Yuwei gently leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "Wait for me to come back, and we'll return to peace together, okay?"

Ling Xiaotian nodded gently, lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "I'll wait for you."

A few days later, Cheng Yuwei entered the enemy's stronghold, disguising herself as an assistant to a herbal medicine merchant in order to get close to a leader in charge of herbal medicine supply among the remaining Canglang gang members. This leader was very picky about herbal medicine and often traveled between various herbal medicine merchants. Cheng Yuwei took this opportunity to successfully contact him.

In the following days, Cheng Yuwei carefully collected intelligence on the enemy while responding to the leader's interrogation. This information included not only the marching routes of the remaining Canglang members, but also their close contacts with certain local forces.

One evening, Cheng Yuwei secretly relayed a message to Ling Xiaotian. The message detailed the enemy's potential attack plan and troop deployment, even including the identities and movements of several key leaders. Upon receiving this intelligence, Ling Xiaotian immediately began emergency deployment, mobilizing elite troops and preparing for an ambush before the enemy launched.

However, Cheng Yuwei's identity gradually aroused the enemy's suspicion. By chance, her identity was almost discovered by the enemy. Fortunately, she responded tactfully, using her medical knowledge to conceal her identity and escaped unscathed. However, she also secretly became vigilant, knowing that she must be more cautious in her next actions.

After a thrilling maneuver, Cheng Yuwei finally managed to transmit all the information back and quietly returned to Ling Xiaotian's residence late at night. At that moment, Ling Xiaotian saw her figure, and his long-tensioned heart finally relaxed. He quickly stepped forward and hugged her tightly, as if to transform all his worries into this embrace.

Cheng Yuwei patted his back gently and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you? I will come back safely."

Ling Xiaotian took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and whispered, "I've been feeling worried these past few days since you were away. This feeling... is really powerless."

Cheng Yuwei leaned her head on his shoulder and comforted him softly, "It's okay, everything is over. We can continue to fight side by side together again."

The two of them embraced each other silently, their hearts filled with trust and warmth. In this moment of tranquility, they seemed to have found their own happiness, and this happiness was born from facing the wind and rain together.

The enemy's movements were finally completely under control, and Ling Xiaotian's ambush troops were already on standby at several key locations, ready to meet the enemy's surprise attack. That night, the lights in the mansion were brightly lit, and Ling Xiaotian and Cheng Yuwei discussed the final deployment together.

"Yuwei, what we have to do this time is to make sure the enemy has nowhere to escape." Ling Xiaotian analyzed calmly.

Cheng Yuwei nodded and added, "I will command intelligence from the rear and pass on the latest developments at any time to ensure that the troops on the front line are properly deployed."

Ling Xiaotian looked at Cheng Yuwei's determined eyes, his heart filled with confidence. He knew that it was precisely because of her presence that his plan was more secure. This battle was not only about his honor, but also about the belief they both shared.

That night, the two slept together. Ling Xiaotian gently embraced Cheng Yuwei and whispered, "Yuwei, when this is over, we can enjoy true peace."

Cheng Yuwei snuggled in his arms and replied softly, "I'm waiting for that day to come."

The flames of war are about to ignite again, but their hearts are unwavering. This crisis will be the ultimate test they will face together.
