"First, please look at the timeline on the back of the documents. You should all understand what you're seeing, right? They even had a precise grasp of our day-to-day movements. Below is the schedule for the day of the Alliance Conference, including detailed seating arrangements, requirements for entering the venue, security deployments, and the exact start and end times. They investigated every detail related to the Alliance Conference. There's no way outsiders could have gotten their hands on this information, right?"
"One person couldn't have done it. This must be the result of several people gathering information together. If each person only asked about a little bit, no one would suspect anything, right? That's how they found out everything they wanted to know. Don't underestimate them. They're the best of the younger generation in their families. It's not impossible that they'd team up to do something big!"
"Since that's the case, Boss Hua, what do you think we should do? Teach them a lesson? That's impossible! They're our own flesh and blood. I couldn't do that!"
"Exactly. Unless they weren't your own, who could bring themselves to lay a hand on them?"
"I suggest we deploy the guard force. Whatever they're planning, as long as they can't carry it out, there won't be a problem, right? Aside from us, no one else would know about the guards. We can have the guards take them in before the family meeting ends, then find out afterward what drove them to do this. What do you think?"
"Brother Qiu Hua, well said. Then let's put all those little brats under house arrest!"
"No, that won't work. If we're going to confine them, we should confine all the kids together. Boss Hua, what if they have other accomplices? To be safe, we should lock up all the kids who spend time together, right?"
"Yeah, I agree. That way, they won't get suspicious!"
"Damn, who would've thought the first job for a family guard force that cost tens of millions would be babysitting a bunch of brats!"
"All right, since we've agreed, let's leave it at that. When you go back, don't let anything slip. I'll send the guards to collect them tomorrow. Please get ready in advance!"
The meeting ended...
Ye Zi was still lying in bed, resting in the Ye family infirmary.
Ye Wenzhu asked softly from outside the infirmary, "Ye Zi? Are you resting?"
When Ye Zi heard him, she replied at once, "No, come in!"
Ye Wenzhu walked in. The old doctor had already gone to rest, and the infirmary was empty...
"Someone will come for you tomorrow. Just go with them without worry."
"All right. I'll be ready."
"Don't you want to ask who they are?"
"There's no need!"
"Haha, that's my granddaughter, all right. Ye Zi, thanks for the effort this time. Once the family meeting is over, I'll treat you to a proper feast!"
"Mm, thank you, Ye Wenzhu!"
"All right, get some rest. I'll have the servants prepare some clothes for you tomorrow!"
"I understand. You should get some rest too, Ye Wenzhu!"
After their brief conversation, Ye Wen left the infirmary. Ye Zi watched him go with a smile, the Flame of Revenge burning fiercely...
Ye Zi wasn't collected until the following evening. Once she was in the car, the people with her told her to sleep or keep her eyes closed, or they would use force. Ye Zi agreed and closed her eyes, calmly resting.
The car drove for about four hours before reaching its destination. It was pitch-black outside.
The other person spoke gently to Ye Zi. "Second Miss Ye, please come with me. Your accommodations are over there!"
Ye Zi nodded and followed.
After about an hour's walk, a huge villa came into view. Lights blazed inside, and music drifted out in snatches.
At the entrance, the other person said, "Second Miss Ye, please go inside. Until we come to open the door for you, please remain in the villa. If you need anything, you can contact us through the intercom!"
Ye Zi nodded and walked straight in. The door closed behind her...
Everyone was inside the villa. They sat quietly on the living-room sofas, waiting for Ye Zi to appear.
"Are there any bugs or cameras?"
"No. Nothing."
"Then shall we begin?"
"Yeah, let's begin. I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"
"No, we should say we've been waiting for this day for a long time!"
"Exactly!"
"All right, all right, same thing. Let's begin!"
The power near the villa was cut. The guards charged in and were all captured...
"What do you people think you're doing? You dare betray the Family Alliance!"
"Betray? No. We just have a different master. Brothers, the game's begun. Lock them all up, and send people to the rendezvous point to join our brothers on the mainland!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Half an hour later, the power came back on and the villa doors opened. A squad of soldiers marched in. Lin smiled. "Ferocious Tiger, thanks for your hard work. Now continue with the next mission. It's all to ensure that the plan for the day after tomorrow goes smoothly!"
On the day of the Alliance Conference, the rules required each family head to travel to the meeting venue alone. Only afterward were other members of the family allowed to go. The arrangements were complicated, so most people traveled to the venue accompanied by a guide.
An hour after Ye Wenzhu left, the Ye family members quickly got into their cars. Following their guide's directions, they headed for the meeting venue...
Half an hour later, all seventeen Ye family cars arrived. The guides told them not to get out until they came to open the doors, then left. The Ye family members were usually domineering, but in a situation like this, they remained calm...
"Report, the leaves have arrived at the pit!"
"Good. Light the fire!"
All seventeen cars burst into flames at once. Before the people inside could figure out what was happening, the fire swallowed them up...
Ye Zi's revenge ended here. Everyone she hated, including her own biological parents, had been killed by her own hands...
Ye Zi hid in the distance, watching the cars being consumed by flames. Tears suddenly streamed down her face as she cried out incoherently, "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad! I'm sorry, Uncle and Auntie! Thanks for everything you've done! Leave the rest to us! I'll do my best to live up to your expectations!"
"Ye Zi, it's time to start. Can you come over?" Kuo Zhe's voice came through the communicator in Ye Zi's hand.
Ye Zi was still crying, but she answered firmly, "Yeah. See you in ten minutes!"
The Alliance Conference began. Everyone had arrived at the venue except for the Ye family's relatives.
"This is ridiculous. They're late for the Alliance Conference!"
"That can't be right. Did something happen on the way?"
"Has Ye Wenzhu arrived?"
"He got here ages ago. It's just the others who haven't come!"
People began murmuring among themselves. The family heads seated onstage had long since grown impatient, with one exception...
Ye Wen said calmly to the other family heads, "Let's not wait. We'll begin. They may not be able to make it."
Just as Yu Qiuhua stood up to speak, all the lights in the venue blazed on. A large group of unidentified people stormed in, and chaos erupted at once.
"Everyone sit down, or you'll be shot!" A booming shout rang through the venue. Those who had been about to flee immediately returned to their seats and obeyed...
"First, allow me to introduce myself."
"My name is Guangcheng Yaming."
Everyone knew that voice well. The Yu family in particular recognized it immediately...
Yu Qiuhua gave a bitter smile and spoke into the microphone beside her. "Lin? Have you lost your mind? Do you know what will happen if you do this?"
"Who's Lin? Do you need me to repeat my name? I'm Guangcheng Yaming, president of Guangcheng Group. You have no choice left, elders of the Family Alliance!"
Yu Qiuhua fell silent. Then Ye Wen beside him asked, "Where's Ye Zi? What have you done to her?"
"Ye Zi? If you mean Ye Ming, she's right here beside me. I suggest you come to your senses. You've been abandoned. You have only two choices now."
"I'll say the rest only once. And don't try anything. I've stationed a hundred snipers in the venue. If you make even the slightest move, their bullets won't show you any mercy."
"Guangcheng Group hopes to peacefully take possession of all the Family Alliance's movable and immovable assets, including your private property!"
"To put it plainly, we're taking everything you own!"
