To Love You Again

A moment later, the legendary families were finally completed when Old Xiong and Xiong Zhi entered the hall.

Tang Yin saw the newcomers and bit her lips. 

Seeing that Xiong Zhi was wearing a sėxy red velvet mermaid gown that made her waist slimmer, she could not help but glance at her own figure. She felt that she did not lose much. She then stared at Xiong Zhi's black long hair that was scattered behind her back and felt that her short hair look rather dull.

The gown and Xiong Zhi's long black hair made a great contrast in Xiong Zhi's milky skin. Added with Xiong Zhi's cherry lips, Tang Yin felt defeated for a while. She felt that the title of a Temptress of tonight would be stolen by Xiong Zhi.

She swallowed her jealousy and approached the newcomers. After greeting the old man politely, she ignored Xiong Zhi and looked behind her. Not seeing the face she waited for this whole night, Tang Yin frowned.

"He is not here." A cold voice attracted her attention.

Xiong Zhi had her usual indifferent look. Her expressionless face matched well with her outfit.

"Who says I am looking for Linfeng gege?"

"Who says I am referring to him?"

"Then are you referring to another person?"

"Are you looking for another person? I'll be glad if that's true."

The two glaring eyes met for a while. A spark between them ignited.

Old Xiong doesn't plan to wait for a fight to break out. He was impatient. "You two could chat later. Where's my seat?"

Tang Yin felt bitter that she could not even beat Xiong Zhi in a word fight. She retreated for now and immediately returned to being a polite and charming lady. She smiled sweetly to Old Xiong, "This way, Head Master Xiong."

Since Linfeng was not here, Tang Yin did not plan to stay with the Xiong table. On the other hand, Xiong Zhi's beautiful face did not change all throughout. Without Linfenfg here, this night would become tiresome with uninteresting pure business.

People flocked to their table and surrounded them. Their flatteries were overwhelming.

Some of these people hid when the legendary families were having a tough time and some were secretly leaning on Ming Zhi Yi's side. However, when Ming Zhi Yi disappeared and the sign of victory turned to the legendary families' side, these people suddenly showed up and offered to help.

Their motive could not be any obvious.

In the face of their countless offers and smiling faces, the old man and his granddaughter just faced them with a cold face.

With this, Zhou Min could see the resemblance between the grandfather-and-granddaughter pair. He could not help but smile before walking to the butler's area.

Just as the lights dimmed to signal the start of the party, a man in the butler area silently withdrew without attracting attention.

...

The man in a butler suit went to the backdoor. When he opened the backdoor, he was stunned to see a man in a black suit standing in the doorway and was staring at him. Behind him was another group of men in suits who also turned in his direction.

The butler's heart skipped a beat. Even in this narrow hallway that serves as the maids and butlers' route, the Tang family still placed security.

"Where are you going, sir? The party is still ongoing."

"I am going to the bathroom."

The guard looked at him up and down. This guard was an expert from Tang's MA group. When he sensed that the butler did not carry any killing intent or was weak enough to kill anyone in his team, he let him pass.

Everyone at this party was searched thoroughly. Their identities had been checked numerous times. Besides, this backdoor only leads to the bathroom and to other quarters for servants. Though there was an emergency exit besides the quarters, the door was locked securely. There's nothing this man could do in those places.

The man was finally allowed to leave. He went to the men's bathroom. After counting the cubicles he went to one of them and locked the door. He then closed the toilet's lid and stood on top of it. On the ceiling, there was a small air vent. He took the silver pin in his tie and used it to loosen the screw that was holding the vent. After successfully opening it, he found what he was looking for.

Since the party was full of important people, the security was strict and tight. They were even more strict to the servants such as himself. The butlers could not bring any belonging aside from their clothes. There was even a device to check if he contained any weapons in his undėrġȧrmėnts.

That's why his master spent almost a month just to make this plan flawless. It would take a lot of preparations and effort just to get him inside and install this baggage before the party. The man took the bag and checked what was inside. The device, smoke bombs, and the weapons were here.

The man swallowed hard. What he was going to do next would be very dangerous. He would undoubtedly die no matter the mission was a success or failure. However, there was no room for failure. Since he was going to die, he should do his utmost best to do his mission.

The man who was pretending as a butler was none other than Assistant Xin. With his master's preparation, he was wearing someone's face and took over the identity of a butler of some high profile figure. The real person who owned this face died under his master's people a few months ago.

Even this kind of biological weapon was taken out from his master's secret tash. His master was really looking forward to the success of this mission.

Assitant Xin opened the door and threw smoke bombs on the way. As expected, there were guards hidden in the hallway, and some were even watching the men's bathroom door. 

When the guards saw three cans rolling on the ground towards them, their faces changed instantly.

"It's an atta-" An attack!

The men tried to warn the others. Unfortunately, they could not even finish their words when smokes started to spread everywhere and went to their mouth.

A little later, the guards in the hallway dropped one by one.

After successfully evading the security team he went to the emergency stairs just beside the servant's quarters. He installed the bombs on the emergency door and put a timer on it. 

After doing so, he went to the servant's quarters and opened the electrical junction box in the room. He took the device from his bag and install it on the box. With this, he could hack through the main power system and deactivate the power for one minute. This one minute was enough to let the experts who were waiting outside come into the building and ambush the people here.

Assistant Hu's hands were quick. He only has a few minutes before the people in the hall learn of the matter that happened here. After a few clicks, the power shut down.
