252 The Person Who Disappeared

Only then did Huang Hong realize that perhaps he had provoked someone he shouldn’t have!

“Isn’t forcing them to get engaged making things a little too difficult?! After all, it’s still the new year. Why don’t you take a step back and let the Huang family guarantee that those two people will never appear in front of you again? Huang Xing, call your grandson and granddaughter’s parents out to apologize to them solemnly.” Wei Changzheng persuaded.

When Huang Hong heard Wei Changzheng’s words, he immediately said, “We can accept this! They can’t get engaged so casually!”

When Wei Changzheng heard Huang Hong relent, he looked at Zhao Huaishan.

“Huaishan! What do you think?”

“Why are you asking me? I’m not the one who suffered!” Zhao Huaishan said, “If you want to ask, you have to ask my granddaughter and son-in-law!”

Wei Changzheng could only look at Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran considered that her grandfather’s family was still in the village, so she couldn’t be too ruthless.

So she turned and nodded at Luo Cheng.

Seeing Li Xiaoran nod, Luo Cheng also nodded.

“For the sake of Grandpa and the village chief, let’s leave it at that!”

When Wei Changzheng heard this, he hurriedly asked Huang Hong to call Huang Jiaojiao and Huang Yu’s parents out and they apologized to Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran in public.

Of course, after apologizing, the Huang family also promised not to let Huang Jiaojiao and Huang Yu appear in front of Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran again.

At this point, the matter was resolved.

Li Xiaoran was about to turn around and go out when she felt a strong emotion.

Li Xiaoran subconsciously turned around and looked at the Huang family.

Before Li Xiaoran could see clearly, the figure disappeared.

“What’s wrong?” Luo Cheng sensed Li Xiaoran’s abnormality and asked.

“It’s nothing. I might have seen wrongly!” Li Xiaoran didn’t reveal anything and only said this.

When Luo Cheng heard this, he also glanced at the Huang family.

After the Huang family and Luo Cheng’s eyes met, they felt as if they had been frozen. Their limbs felt cold and numb, and they didn’t dare to move.

After Luo Cheng retracted his gaze, the group panted heavily.

“How terrifying! Grandpa, we provoked a very powerful person!” Huang Hong’s eldest grandson, Huang Qiming, said.

Huang Hong said nothing. He turned around to enter the house.

The Huang family had really suffered extreme humiliation today.

On the way back, Li Xiaoran kept recalling the scene she saw previously.

“What did you see at the Huang family’s residence?” Luo Cheng asked.

“I think I saw someone. When I wanted to take a closer look, that person disappeared. I definitely didn’t see wrongly. Even if I did, the emotions I sensed couldn’t be wrong. But at that moment, that person disappeared from my perception. There’s only one possibility. The other party immediately lost his emotions or entered a state of hibernation.” Li Xiaoran told him what she felt was strange.

“You can’t be wrong. There must be such a person! Can you tell me what that person’s emotions are like?” Luo Cheng asked.

“Ruthless, dark, and cold! This coldness is the kind where you don’t have any feelings when you look at anyone or anything. It’s as if that person cares about nothing. Yes, prey, I remember! That emotion makes it seem as if he regards us as prey!” Li Xiaoran trembled and understood what she had been unable to figure out previously.

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, his expression became solemn.

If that was the case, it seemed that they were in trouble.

“Husband, Huang Hong still has designs on our eagles! Although he tries not to look at the eagles on our shoulders, I still feel that he cares about the fledglings. Why do you think that is? Even if these two eagle fledglings are very rare, Huang Hong doesn’t have to keep having designs on them, right?” Li Xiaoran felt that something was amiss.

“My grandpa, two uncles and I have asked around. There are many eagles in Eagle Village, but the kings are extremely rare among eagles, and those young eagles with the potential to become kings rarely recognize companions. There have been young eagles with the potential to become kings in the past, but there are only two of them in total. As soon as we arrived, we were recognized as companions by two eagles who are very likely to become kings. Other people naturally became greedy!” Luo Cheng said.

Li Xiaoran shook her head. She felt that this matter wasn’t that simple.

However, her mind was spinning and she couldn’t figure out what was going on.

After the people left, Huang Hong returned to his house and saw the man in black sitting at the table drinking tea with his back facing him.

“What are you doing here?”

“Why can’t I come? How could I have seen such a farce if I hadn’t come?” The man in black took a sip of tea and said calmly.

“Hmph, what? Are you that happy to see our family make a fool of ourselves?! Don’t forget, we’re in the same boat now,” Huang Hong said unhappily.

“Don’t worry, I won’t forget this. However, Huang Hong, don’t blame me for not reminding you. If you don’t do your job well, you won’t have the chance to be in the same boat as me in the future! Also, Fang Wanli has been captured. My people can’t spare any manpower now. You better think of a way to save him. At this moment, Fang Wanli is still useful. Nothing can happen to him!” the black-robed man said.

“I knew you wouldn’t appear for nothing. As expected, nothing good happens once you appear! Fang Wanli is the same. Isn’t he quite capable? Why was he captured?! Now, my family still has to think of a way to get the Eagle King’s baby birds. How can I have the time to care about him?!” Huang Hong said calmly.

“Speaking of which, this matter happens to have something to do with you! Do you know how Fang Wanli was captured? He was captured by the young couple who asked you to apologize today. Now, young eagles have acknowledged these two people as companions. If you want to deal with them, Fang Wanli will have to take action. After all, almost no one can see through Fang Wanli’s outstanding disguise technique!” the black-robed man said.

Huang Hong thought about the man in black’s words and finally nodded.

“Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way to save Fang Wanli!”

“That’s for the best! I wish you all the best with tea instead of wine!” After saying this, the man in black drank the tea in his teacup in one gulp, then leaped out of the room and disappeared from Huang Hong’s sight.
