?165: Chapter 165 The Peach Blossom Spring in the Mountains   165: Chapter 165 The Peach Blossom Spring in the Mountains                                   Shui Yue and Long Wu seemed to be enjoying their conversation.


    Shui Yue thought that since Long Wu did not want to disclose his profession, there must be some other reason or perhaps his job was not so respectable, and he did not want to talk about it in front of Shui Yue.


    Shui Yue could understand all of this.


    After all, she was a department manager herself and knew a great deal about how to deal with people and their emotions.


    Xiang Yu sat with his two brothers, and Ouyang Xiu had some suspicions.


    After all, he and his brother had previously asked Xiang Yu for help, but Xiang Yu had not agreed.


    Yet now, he had called them both here.


    What did this mean?


    “Ouyang Xiu, what do you most want to do right now?” Xiang Yu leaned back on the sofa and looked at him.


    “Leave this city and live a peaceful life,” Ouyang Xiu said, looking directly at Xiang Yu.


    Xiang Yu shook his head with a smile, “That’s not what you truly think.”


    Ouyang Xiu turned to look at his brother, “When father was still here, he told me to take good care of Xiao Tian.


    I will take care of him.”


    Xiang Yu nodded, recognizing that Ouyang Xiu was a man of loyalty andmitment.


    “Your brother, I can take care of him.


    I’ll send him to another city to live, where he won’t face any dangers,” Xiang Yu said.


    Ouyang Xiu gave Xiang Yu a puzzled look again.


    If his brother could leave safely, it would be an excellent oue.


    But Xiang Yu’s offer made him wonder, why was he being so kind?


    Xiang Yu noticed the doubt in his eyes and smiled mysteriously, “Of course, my helpes with a condition.


    Once you have avenged your father and secured everything that belongs to you, I want half of the family business.”


    That’s when Ouyang Xiu understood Xiang Yu’s intention; he was helping him purely for the assets of the Ouyang Family.


    But during their previous encounter, Ouyang Xiu had offered all of the family’s assets to Xiang Yu, and now, Xiang Yu was asking for only half.


    Perhaps Xiang Yu felt somewhat uneasy to im it all.


    Ouyang Xiu turned to look at his brother with mixed feelings in his heart.


    Having been through so much, Ouyang Tian had also matured a lot.


    Looking at his brother withplicated eyes, he said, “Don’t worry, brother.


    I’ve grown up, and I can take care of myself.


    Father’s death was mysterious and unexined.


    You must investigate it thoroughly.


    I would like to stay and help you, but I also know that if I do, I’ll only hold you back.”


    As he spoke, tears swirled in Ouyang Tian’s eyes but did not fall.


    Now that Xiang Yu had agreed to help them and didn’t seem like a bad person, he hoped his brother would seize this opportunity and not give up on it because of him.


    Though Ouyang Xiu was reluctant, he knew this day was inevitable; it had juste earlier than expected.


    In the end, he nodded in agreement.


    “You have to ensure that Xiao Tian is safe,” Ouyang Xiu said to Xiang Yu.


    Now he only had this one rtive, and Ouyang Tian was his sole concern.


    If his brother was safe, everything else would be negotiable.


    Seeing Ouyang Xiu agree, Xiang Yu just smiled without speaking, then took out his phone to call Shi Jian.


    Upon receiving Xiang Yu’s message, Shi Jian quickly returned.


    Upon arriving at the vi and observing the lively scene, he paused, then noticed Ouyang Xiu sitting on the sofa.


    Shi Jian had seen him before but was unsure why he was here today.


    Moreover, in the kitchen, there was a beautiful woman with Long Wu.


    “Shi Jian, today you’re to take this brother to Wu Jing’s ce.


    Also, throw away all of hismunication devices, including his phone,” Xiang Yu instructed.


    Shi Jian had not been involved in these matters, so he simply nodded and looked at the Ouyang brothers dressed in Xiang Yu’s clothes, seeming well-fitted.


    “If you throw away mymunication devices, how will I contact my brother?” Ouyang Tian asked anxiously.


    “If you wish to contact him, you’ll find a way.


    Someone there will help you,” Xiang Yu reassured.


    “Let’s go,” Shi Jian said, looking at Ouyang Tian.


    Although he had mentally prepared himself, Ouyang Xiu had not expected Xiang Yu to act so quickly, ready to leave immediately.


    Ouyang Xiu patted his brother’s shoulder, “Take care of yourself.


    Once things are settled here, I’lle to see you.”


    “Rest assured, brother.


    I know.


    You take care as well,” Ouyang Tian replied.


    The farewell between the brothers was emotionally charged, as if it were a matter of life and death.


    Xiang Yu, feeling somewhat helpless, said, “You’ll have plenty of opportunities to see each other in the future.


    Don’t act like this is a final goodbye.”


    Chastened by Xiang Yu’s words, Ouyang Xiu felt slightly embarrassed and then nodded to his brother.


    Turning to Shi Jian, he said, “Please.”


    Shi Jian just smiled, and then he took Ouyang Tian and left.


    By the time Long Wu and Shui Yue emerged from the kitchen, Shi Jian had already departed.


    “Where did the two of them go?” Shui Yue asked, puzzled.


    “A safe ce,” Xiang Yu replied promptly.


    On the road, Shi Jian contacted Wu Jing to ascertain the route, as Wu Jing had found a very secluded location.


    Shi Jian had never been involved in this aspect of affairs and thus did not know the exact position.


    Shi Jian drove around the city a few times to ensure no one was following before heading to the next city.


    Shi Jian drove fast, reaching the meeting point by five in the afternoon.


    Wu Jing was already waiting for him and greeted Shi Jian with a secretive smile, “Let’s go, I’ll take you there.”


    Leading the way in his car, they left the big city for a small town.


    The small town was bustling, and after passing through it, they arrived at the edge where a mountain vi hotel was located.


    The hotel was built against a big mountain, with argeke in front, offering picturesque scenery.


    Following Wu Jing, Shi Jian couldn’t help but marvel at the thought of how wonderful it would be to live here.


    From the moment they entered the vi, Shi Jian noticed that the ce was full of beautiful women.


    Some were ying cards, others chatting, and some were rowing boats on theke.


    Stepping out of the car, Shi Jian found himself so captivated by the surroundings that he forgot to ry his task.


    “ording to Big Brother’s intentions, we’ve bought this ce.


    Everything around here is ours,” Shi Jian said with a hint of pride.


    Overjoyed to hear everything was theirs, Shi Jian’s gaze questioned the joyful girls around him.


    Wu Jing nodded with a smile, “Yes, they’re the ones.


    Don’t worry.


    Our brothers are guarding the area; it’s safe, and currently, they have nomunication devices to contact the outside world.


    However, we don’t limit their freedom within the vi.”


    Shi Jian nodded in understanding.


    If he could live here with no worries, he would not want to leave—what a paradise it would be.


    As Shi Jian was still in shock, he suddenly spotted a familiar figure.


    There sat Zhang Hongbo in a small gazebo, reclining on an elderly chair, with two beautiful women massaging him from behind.


    The lucky guy, reveling in luxury…
