Lin Feng really had no way to deal with Liu Yanran, and he felt reluctant to just leave her here. In the end, Lin Feng had no choice but to take her back to the Liu Family.
Lin Feng had considered sending Liu Yanran to a hotel as she requested; it wouldn't be difficult to book a room at a Five-Star Hotel for her. However, after what happened today, Lin Feng had to think more carefully. He couldn't just rescue her and then have something unexpected happen at the hotel that night.
Moreover, Lin Feng clearly wasn't going to stay there to keep watch over Liu Yanran. Just a second before she fainted, she was still arguing with him. Lin Feng couldn't cater to this young lady.
Thus, Lin Feng decisively chose to return Liu Yanran to the Liu Family. Even if it meant stepping back from the situation, he believed that there was no place that could guarantee Liu Yanran's safety anymore.
Having just arrived at the Liu Family earlier in the day, Lin Feng wasn't lost and quickly reached the Liu Family estate.
Specifically, it was the Liu Family villa.
Liu Yanran's disappearance would undoubtedly be a bombshell for the Liu Family. Therefore, before Lin Feng arrived, the Liu Family had already dispatched everyone they could to search for her. Liu Lao was furious and deeply regretted that Liu Yanran had suddenly run away from home. He realized that it was likely due to their earlier conversation.
Liu Lao knew that Yan'er was stubborn, but he never expected his usually sensible and obedient granddaughter would do something like running away. He felt that it was his failure to communicate clearly that led his precious granddaughter to leave home.
"Report, Master, there is still no news." The first group sent out returned, looking exhausted but cautiously reporting to Liu Lao.
"No news? Why are you back? Keep searching! You must find her even if you have to turn A City upside down!" Liu Lao's usual good temper could no longer be contained as he shouted.
"Oh, I'm going right now." The man rarely saw Liu Lao lose his temper but knew that just because Liu Lao appeared calm didn't mean he wasn't angry. On the contrary, anyone who thought otherwise would surely face consequences.
As the man left again, Liu Lao sat in his chair feeling lost. Without any news of his granddaughter, he couldn't find peace for even a moment.
"Dad, is Yan'er missing?" At that moment, a middle-aged man approached and asked.
This middle-aged man was named Liu Wu. He bore some resemblance to Liu Lao and also had a few features in common with Liu Yanran. It was clear he was the son of Liu Lao and the father of Liu Yanran.
"You martial arts fanatic, your daughter has run away from home, and you only just got here?" Seeing his son, who was completely absorbed in martial arts, Liu Lao felt a surge of anger. It was this useless son who focused solely on martial arts, forgetting everything else. This was why Liu Yanran had to handle all matters of the Liu Family. Otherwise, she wouldn't have to bear so much responsibility. In Liu Lao's mind, Liu Yanran should be like a true princess, enjoying school life and sweet romance at this time.
"Dad, I just heard about it and rushed over!" Liu Wu chuckled foolishly, scratching his head as he spoke.
"What? Is Yan'er just my granddaughter now, not your daughter?" Seeing his son's demeanor, there was no sign of the dignity expected from the eldest son of the Liu Family. Did he really think he was Guo Jing? Still smiling foolishly.
"No, Dad, that's not what I meant. Yan'er is grown up; I'm just letting her grow up freely!" Liu Wu, fearless of anything but his father, knew that although he was passionate about martial arts, he understood that his father appeared gentle and refined but would be far from his match in a fight.
It should be noted that Liu Wu was also an Inner Strength Expert, which indicated that Liu Lao's strength was quite high as well.
"Let her grow freely? Hmph... Let me tell you, if you don't take care of Yan'er, you still have your old man here. But now that Yan'er is missing, you're just dawdling around instead of going to find her?" Liu Lao wasn't in the mood to debate trivial matters; he only wanted to find Yan'er. As long as she was safe, everything else could be considered later.
"Alright, alright, Dad. I'll go right now. Don't be angry; wait for my good news." Knowing that his father was about to explode with anger, Liu Wu didn't dare linger. Initially, he thought that Liu Yanran had simply gone out on her own and wasn't too worried. But seeing his father's expression now made him realize that things were not so simple; there might even be danger for his precious girl. Without further delay, he prepared to set off in search of her.
Although Liu Wu was devoted to martial arts—he only married because his father forced him to—his love for Liu Yanran was certainly no less than that of an average father. After all, throughout his life, the only woman he had been close to was his beloved daughter. It was clear that all his affection for women was embodied in Liu Yanran.
How could such love not be profound? How could it not be heavy?
"Wait a minute! When you go look for Yan'er, do you know where she usually goes? Do you know where she is most likely to be right now?" As soon as Liu Wu was about to leave, Liu Lao suddenly thought of another matter and asked.
"Uh, Dad, I don't see Yan'er every day; how would I know where she..." Only then did Liu Wu realize that although he loved his precious daughter dearly, they didn't meet often. If he were to look for her now, he genuinely had no idea where to start.
However, halfway through his sentence, he hesitated to continue. It certainly wasn't a good thing for a father not to know his daughter's whereabouts.
If the word got out, he estimated that before anyone could laugh at him for not fulfilling his responsibilities as a father, his own father would have already split him in half. Therefore, he could only keep his mouth shut.
"Why aren't you continuing? Let me tell you, Liu Wu, I'm not going to settle accounts with you for now. I've already sent someone to look for Yan'er in all the places she frequently visits. Right now, you need to go to the Hong Family and check on their movements tonight. I suspect that Yan'er's disappearance might be related to the Hong Family, especially that Hong Jian. Pay close attention," Old Master said. True to his title, Old Master quickly calmed down and realized that in his earlier panic, he had forgotten this crucial detail. Why did Yan'er run away? Wasn't it because the Hong Family came to propose marriage? He estimated that this matter was closely tied to the Hong Family.
"Ah, oh, do they dare? I'm going right now, Old Master. If this matter is related to the Hong Family, I will definitely make them pay," Liu Wu said. Although he was known as a martial arts fanatic, it didn't mean he was completely oblivious to the outside world. At least he knew that Hong Jian from the Hong Family had feelings for his daughter while she utterly despised him. Given that he came from the Liu Family, he often figured things out quickly. Anger surged within him; how dare they touch Liu Wu's daughter!
"Keep a close watch and don't act impulsively. If it turns out that it wasn't the Hong Family who did this, and you suddenly find yourself in trouble, it won't end well. If it was them, they must have prepared for it as well. Over these years, Hong Jian has become increasingly powerful; this is no longer the same Hong Family as before," Liu Lao warned. He knew his son's fiery temper and cautioned him again, fearing that his impulsive son would ruin everything.
"Alright, Dad, don't worry. I won't joke around with Yan'er's safety," Liu Wu replied, knowing he had to keep his cool as he headed out.
"Report... Report to Master! A person named Lin Feng has arrived at the entrance of the villa and says he needs to see Master about something." Just as Liu Wu was about to leave for the Hong Family to investigate, a servant from the Liu Family came in with a report.
"Lin Feng? What is he doing here at this critical moment? Quickly invite him in; I'll go out right now," Liu Lao said upon hearing the servant's report. He was puzzled about why Lin Feng had come at this time but quickly realized that seeing him would clarify everything. He instructed accordingly.
"Yes, Master." The servant hurriedly left after receiving Master’s orders. The entire villa was searching for Miss Liu Yanran tonight; although he was on duty guarding the gate and didn't need to search himself, he had heard about this matter. The Liu Family had strict family rules, and he understood them well; during such times, he dared not make any mistakes and immediately executed Liu Lao's command.
"Dad, who is Lin Feng?" Liu Wu asked curiously since someone like him had little interest in the Jade Exhibition and this was the first time he had heard Lin Feng's name.
"Don't waste time asking questions; just know that Lin Feng is an esteemed guest of our Liu Family. Whether we can rise again depends on him; don't treat him lightly when you meet him," Liu Lao replied with some annoyance at his son for not knowing who Lin Feng was due to missing the Jade Exhibition. He reminded his son—who only focused on martial arts and knew nothing else—not to be rude to Lin Feng.
"Oh, Dad, rest assured." Although Liu Wu was a martial arts fanatic, he understood the importance of family revival and promised solemnly.
"Good. Since you're heading out anyway, come with me to meet Lin Feng first before going to the Hong Family," Liu Lao said as he saw that his son understood priorities somewhat and left the room toward the reception hall.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng had finally parked in the Liu Family's parking lot under the guidance of a servant and opened the car door to carry Liu Yanran out, preparing to return her to the Liu Family.
"Hey... isn't that Miss? How did she end up in your arms?" The servant exclaimed upon seeing the woman Lin Feng was holding. It was shocking; Lin Feng was actually carrying Miss Liu Yanran—the very person everyone in the Liu Family was currently searching for and Old Master's treasured granddaughter—how could he remain indifferent? He prepared to draw his baton and get ready for action.
"Your young lady is drunk. I brought her back, so please take me to see your Master." Lin Feng understood the other person's concern for Liu Yanran and didn't want to argue, simply explaining that as long as he delivered Liu Yanran to Liu Lao, Liu Lao would naturally understand what he meant.
"Alright, follow me." Seeing that Lin Feng had no intention of causing trouble and that the young lady was in the manor, the gatekeeper relaxed, knowing that even if Lin Feng had ulterior motives, he wouldn't take Liu Yanran to the Liu Family.
However, Lin Feng noticed that there were too many people leading the way—six in total. Three were in front and three behind, all prepared to encircle him at any moment.
Seeing this, Lin Feng could only smile wryly; for now, they wouldn’t act against him, so it didn’t pose much of an obstacle.
Before long, Lin Feng finally saw Liu Lao and a middle-aged man waiting for him at the entrance of the reception hall. A glance at the man and then at Liu Lao and the features of Liu Yanran in his arms confirmed to Lin Feng that this man was indeed Liu Yanran's father.
In a fleeting moment, Lin Feng also realized that Liu Yanran's father was an Inner Strength Expert.
"Yan'er, Mr. Lin, this is Yan'er..." Liu Lao was taken aback upon seeing the person in Lin Feng's arms but quickly regained his composure and stepped forward to ask Liu Wu.
"Liu Lao, it's a long story. I saved your drunken granddaughter at a bar. Where is her room? Please take me there so we can settle her first." Lin Feng had no time for lengthy explanations; holding someone made it inconvenient to talk, so he briefly explained and requested Liu Lao to take him to Liu Yanran's room.
"Oh, thank you, Mr. Lin. I'll take you there right away." After hearing Lin Feng's words, Liu Lao decided it was best to settle Liu Yanran first. He could tell from a distance that his precious granddaughter was breathing evenly and reeked of alcohol—she was indeed drunk. As he spoke, he began to lead the way.
Liu Wu sighed in relief upon hearing Lin Feng's explanation; regardless of the circumstances, it was much more reassuring that Liu Yanran was now with the Liu Family rather than out on her own.
Arriving at Liu Yanran's room, Lin Feng placed her on her bed. Naturally, there were servants from the Liu Family assigned to take care of her while Lin Feng began talking with Liu Lao.
Lin Feng believed that Liu Lao would be very interested in knowing what had happened tonight.
"By the way, she twisted her right ankle. I managed to treat it a bit on the way here; it shouldn't be a problem," Lin Feng suddenly remembered as he was about to leave, explaining about Liu Yanran's injury.
"Oh, we understand." Among those serving Liu Yanran, there was naturally a professional doctor. Seeing Liu Lao nod in acknowledgment, he also spoke up.
"Alright, Liu Lao, let's go. I'll tell you what happened tonight," Lin Feng said, noticing that there was nothing more for him to do here.
"Yes, Liu Wu, make sure to take good care of Yan'er. If she needs healing, attend to her wounds," Liu Lao instructed as he left with Lin Feng.
"Got it, Dad," Liu Wu replied, remaining in Liu Yanran's room.
Lin Feng and Liu Lao left. The rest would be handled properly by them.
"Mr. Lin, thank you so much for tonight. You have no idea; our Liu Family was prepared to turn A City upside down just to find Yan'er. We really appreciate it," Liu Lao began to express his gratitude before Lin Feng could explain himself.
Lin Feng was taken aback. He hadn't even clarified how Liu Yanran ended up in his hands, yet the other party had already expressed their trust in him. This indeed made him feel a sense of comfort.
At least Lin Feng would not hold any grudges because of the earlier attitude of the doorman.
