The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

Shi Rong shook her head, and stretched out her slender fingertips. Before she could get close to his handsome and elegant profile, Shi Yang took the initiative to respond and rubbed her soft and delicate skin.

"It's okay, I just thought you looked pretty handsome tonight."

After saying that, Shi Rong followed Feng Qingning without looking back, leaving everyone with only a beautiful and charming back.

Just this one sentence immediately filled Huo Jiuzhou and Shi Yang, who had extremely sensitive perceptions, with anxiety and fear.

What kind of drama is she going to put on with Feng Qingning?

His black eyes narrowed, and before he could think seriously, Nan Yuan followed the order and invited Shi Yang back to his original deputy position and followed the previous steps to monitor Shi Rong.

The wall behind where she sat has a large template in the center and three small templates on the right and below.

Four different real-time images of the characters were brought up, but they were all pitch black, and it took some time to connect them.

The audience was empty for a moment, and 10 minutes later, a few familiar figures appeared in the video panel in the center.

At that time, Shi Rong was being helped by three pretty maids to tidy up his facial and physical appearance.

Feng Qingning's face was full of love. She held her cold little hands and was reluctant to let go for a long time.

The two looked at each other, and when the maid had sorted out the situation and left, everyone could see clearly that they were now in the Ying family ancestral hall at the foot of the mountain.

The interior environment does not have any overly luxurious decorations, it is simply simple and unpretentious.

On a huge carved agarwood platform, from low to high, the tablets of the deceased ancestors of the Ying family are enshrined, and around it is a large circle of white spirit candles that burn day and night.

Beside the wooden platform, there are dozens of coffins made of different materials. In each of them lies a deceased person. Among them, there is also a double coffin carved from gilded jade.

According to their guess, the people lying there should be Shi Rong's parents.

"Last night, grandma had a dream."

There was silence for a while. Feng Qingning tried hard to suppress the cry in his throat. Looking at Shi Rong's face which was covered with fine lines but still had charm, he was filled with sadness and reluctance.

Shi Rong smiled as if to comfort him.

"Did you dream about Grandpa again?"

Feng Qingning shook her head.

"Grandmother dreamed of your parents. In the dream, they asked me why I gave birth to you in the Ying family. Was it just to let you experience all the sufferings of the world and endure all the setbacks and hardships? And I was speechless."

Having said this, Feng Qingning could no longer hold back and her eyes finally turned red.

"Yang'er, please believe in grandma. Grandpa and I have spent our entire lives fighting for you and Yang'er. You are everything in our lives. I know that the Ying family's achievements today are largely due to you and Yang'er."

"But Ying'er, you must believe in Grandma. Grandpa and I repeatedly trained you, not to make you live your whole life solely for the Ying family. When you can't bear it anymore, you must learn to admit defeat and retreat."

"Grandma would never let you go if there was any problem I could solve personally. I wish you could live a carefree life, forever being a little princess who is loved and cared for."

"But in the end, things went against my wishes. Being born into the Ying family is really unfair to you..."

Feng Qingning burst into tears, and her voice was filled with unconcealable sobs.

Shi Rong pursed his lips in distress and used the handkerchief in his hand to wipe away the tears from her face.

"Grandma, please don't say that. I'm very lucky to be born in the Ying family, to have a father, mother, and brother who love me, and to have grandparents, uncles, and aunts who love me."

"Besides, this is just a show. The Ying family has been preparing for so many years in secret, isn't it just for this day? If this matter is destined to be done by me, then my granddaughter is willing to do it."

"Because it is my responsibility to protect the Ying family and the tens of thousands of residents in East City."

"As my grandfather used to tell me: 'On a grand scale, I'm the future head of the Ying family, beloved by thousands and admired by tens of thousands; but on a smaller scale, I'm just a nameless actor. My life is all about taking every step carefully and performing every scene well.'"

"Tonight, the same thing."

Feng Qingning nodded with sobs, tears welling up in her eyes, like a kite with a broken string, she was overwhelmed with grief.

"Xiao Er, you promised Grandmother that you would come back alive, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the reception room could no longer sit still. Led by Shi Yang and Huo Jiuzhou, they all stood up.

What do you mean?

Why would such a grand banquet of the Ying family and such a mysterious drama have the risk of costing Shi Rong's life?

Why?

No, they couldn't accept Shi Rong experiencing any life-or-death crisis!

Never allow it!

The first thing he did after reacting was to run out with big strides.

"Young Master has issued an order! No one is allowed to leave the reception room before the show begins!"

Unfortunately, before Huo Jiuzhou and Shi Yang could even reach the door, they arrived.

Nan Yuan personally led a group of well-trained black-clad thugs from Shi Rong's name, and they rushed into the reception room from all directions, surrounding everyone so tightly that no one could get out!

Judging from the number, including those guarding outside the door and on standby at any time, there are more than 20,000 or 30,000 people!

Presumably, Shi Rong had been prepared for this moment and sent out his trusted aides to block their way and prevent them from following him.

"presumptuous!"

Shi Yang was already furious after hearing what Feng Qingning said, and when he saw this extraordinary situation, he became even more furious!

"Nan Yuan! Do you know the consequences of stopping me? Are you planning a rebellion?!"

"My subordinates dare not!"

Seeing that Shi Yang was getting angry, Nan Yuan hurriedly bent her legs and knelt on the ground like the people behind her.

"This is the young master's order, and I am just following it..."

Before she could finish her well-reasoned words, Shi Yang interrupted her manically.

"Don't use Ying Shirong to pressure me! She's not here now! Are you just going to let me watch her die?"

Although he had no idea what Shi Rong was about to do, he knew that for her to mobilize so many trusted subordinates, it must be a very dangerous matter involving human lives!

We agreed that no matter what happens in the future, I will not hide it from him...

Ying Shirong, you lied to me again!

Shi Yang clenched his fists, obviously ready to fight them.

"why not?"

Nan Yuan raised her head and faced Shi Yang's furious face, but remained calm.

"I know I'm no match for the Eldest Young Master and his men. But the Young Master's trusted subordinates are all professionally trained martial arts assassins, carefully selected by the Old Master during his lifetime. They only answer to the Young Master."

"There are a total of 35,000 people here. Even if the eldest son can lead his men to break out of the encirclement, by that time, the young master will have already gone deep into the mountains. What's the point of going there?"
