Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 558 The Good Play of Killing Someone with a Borrowed Knife (6)_1

"Grateful? That’s what Brother Luo Wu said; you can’t go back on your word later," Shangguan You’s eyes sparkled as she quickly spoke.

"Of course, our Luo Family always keeps its promises." Luo Tong had appeared by their side at some point, smiling as he spoke.

"Lan Xuan, Han Yachu, are you going back to school first, or will you come with us to gain some experience?" Shangguan You didn’t ask Zhuge Feng, since wherever she went, Zhuge Feng would surely follow. Lan Xuan and Han Yachu exchanged glances; although they didn’t know what was happening, Shangguan You had at least respected them enough to ask instead of just sending them away. This respect warmed their hearts.

"We want to be with you." Han Yachu nodded before speaking slowly. "That’s right. We wonder if we’ll have this opportunity," Lan Xuan chimed in at the same time. The very fact that Shangguan You asked them and not Zhuge Feng made it clear that Zhuge Feng held an important place in her heart.

"Brothers Luo, I wonder if it’s alright to bring three more people with me?" Shangguan You nodded, addressing the two beside her.

The Luo brothers glanced at each other, and Luo Wu went inside to consult Luo Xiao. After a while, he came out and agreed to let Shangguan You bring three people along. Seeing the mood of the Luo father and son shift from jolly to serious, Shangguan You furrowed her brows. What could possibly have happened to make them so concerned?

"Since you’re coming with the girl, it means she trusts you and considers you friends. Whatever you see tonight, I hope you can keep it a secret," Luo Wu spoke indifferently to Zhuge Feng and the other two. Tonight’s matter was of great importance, but since the girl trusted them and considered them friends, he was willing to do her this favor.

"Brother Luo Wu, don’t worry. They’re all my friends. I trust them, and they likewise won’t spill any secrets. Let’s go; I want to check on Grandfather Luo’s health," Shangguan You nodded. She trusted Zhuge Feng completely, believing that he would always silently support her in whatever she did, even staying by her side forever. As for Lan Xuan and Han Yachu, bringing them tonight was also a way to repay a favor. Furthermore, whatever they saw, she had ways to ensure they wouldn’t speak of it. This was also why she let the two accompany her.

The Elder was a living example; to this day, he still couldn’t reveal her secrets. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Four military Land Rovers left the private restaurant, heading into the darkness. "Grandfather Luo, what on earth has happened?" Inside the car, Shangguan You looked at Luo Xiao and his son Luo Jing, who had lost their jovial expressions, and spoke softly.

"Girl, it’s not that this old man doesn’t want to tell you, but I don’t know how to put it properly. You’ll understand once you get there and see it for yourself. Rest up for now; we’re all counting on you. If even you can’t find a way, we’ll have to think of something else. This is a national top-secret matter. Are those three boys you brought reliable?"

"Yeah, girl, we can’t take this risk. If they go back now, there’s still time," Luo Jing sighed deeply, his face filled with worry. Shangguan You’s brow furrowed. A national top-secret matter? What could have happened that made the Luo Family so cautious?

「The Pacific Ocean, a small island isolated from the world.」

Gusty sea breezes swept over sandy beaches, coastlines, villas, and ancient-looking buildings. The entire island was a paradise, filled with the songs of birds, the fragrance of flowers, and lush green grass.

In the distance, massive trees pierced the sky, and a faint mist shrouded the entire island, making it look as enchanting as a fairyland. Upon closer inspection, one would notice the island was moving at an extremely slow pace, which explained why it had remained undiscovered.

Closest to the shore were modern skyscrapers, a total of one hundred and twenty floors high. This was the headquarters of Ye Family International and the command center for the entire corporation. No one would imagine that the Ye Family’s headquarters was in such a deserted place, nor would they suspect that the Ye Family was involved in both legitimate business and the mafia. Whether in the open or in the shadows, the Ye Family possessed enough power to destroy an entire country.

Every day, countless orders were issued from computers here. Only the core members of the Ye Family, those from the top echelons, could be found here. From birth, they not only received the family’s basic cultivation training but also the most modern education to become the most qualified employees of Ye Family International.

They possessed the most advanced technology and the highest command authority within the Ye Family. This allowed them to sustain Ye Family International’s unbeatable position in the international realm, controlling national and global economic lifelines. Moreover, their existence was unknown to anyone outside the Ye Family.

This was why, when the third Young Master of the Ye Family wanted to give Shangguan You twenty percent of the Ye Family International shares, the eldest Young Master opposed it.

Naturally, these people only took orders from the Ye Family’s Young Master, that is, the third Young Master. Ye Family International was founded by him out of boredom, to pass the time. He also enjoyed participating in various dangerous missions, often resolving them single-handedly.

Behind the skyscrapers were numerous upscale villa complexes – the privileges of the high-level executives of Ye Family International. Apart from the scenery, the most significant aspect of this small island was its Spiritual Energy, which was several times stronger than that of Hidden World Village. While managing the nation’s economy, these Ye Family members could also cultivate their own Spiritual Energy.

As for the Ye Family branch in Hidden World Village, it was merely an insignificant, dispensable side branch of the main family. This was the mysterious reason why the main Ye Family was feared by Hidden World Village. No one knew where the main Ye Family resided, nor could anyone find them. However, the Ye Family’s intelligence network was well-informed about everything in Hidden World Village, as well as major and minor global events.

This was why the third Young Master of the Ye Family, in gratitude to Shangguan You, had been willing to offer any conditions she desired. Should she express a wish, the third Young Master could naturally fulfill all her demands. When Shangguan You had made her request, the third Young Master had said it was a bit troubling because he had a somewhat complicated relationship with the higher-ups, which made him a bit embarrassed to act.
