Chapter 275: 265 Boss Ying’s Backers [2 Updates]
The voice on the other end of the phone was Steward Feng.
He reported on the situation at the hospital.
“What?” Patriarch Feng frowned, “You said Huahua was given a sedative and now that she’s awake, she’s causing even more trouble? Does this mean she wants to come to the training camp?”
Steward Feng was also troubled: “Yes, the young master is particularly agitated. Patriarch, could it be that his nerves were damaged by the beating? But the doctors didn’t detect any shadow on his brain, everything seems normal.”
“You keep an eye on him for now,” Patriarch Feng said. “Huahua was so severely injured, we must first stabilize his emotions before we can help him recover. If it really comes to it, let the doctor administer another sedative.”
He had also made contact with the Dynasty KTV.
...
In the end, it was confirmed that Ying Zijin truly had no background whatsoever.
However, this was still not enough to put his mind at ease. Patriarch Feng sent people to investigate further and found out that Ying Zijin was indeed the foster daughter of a wealthy family from Shanghai City, but had been driven out of the house now.
After instructing Steward Feng, Patriarch Feng followed his bodyguards, taking a detour through the bushes from the back right.
The training camp was in the suburbs, very quiet and scarcely populated.
The bodyguards were all professionally trained; they specifically avoided the surveillance range, first escorting Patriarch Feng inside the wall before following him over.
The journey went smoothly.
The training camp was large, but there were only twelve students, plus a few teachers and professors, making it quite empty.
Following the map, Patriarch Feng and the bodyguards arrived at the female dormitory at the very back.
This was a three-story cottage, with lights on in each room and the curtains drawn.
The Xiu family had told him that Ying Zijin was staying in the room on the third floor to the right.
Patriarch Feng narrowed his eyes, “You guys go up first, then pull me up.”
He intended to personally apprehend the person responsible for seriously injuring his son.
As he spoke, Patriarch Feng cautiously surveyed the surroundings again to make certain no one had spotted them; his anxious heart finally settled.

After all, he wasn’t going to touch anyone protected within the talent program; just Ying Zijin alone, one less wouldn’t be an issue.
Five minutes later, Patriarch Feng successfully made it onto the third floor.
Apart from Ying Zijin, there were also Teng Yunmeng and Xiu Yan on the third floor.
Patriarch Feng gave a look to one of his bodyguards, signaling him to open the door.
Understanding the cue, the bodyguard took out his tools and began to pick the lock.
In the span of just ten seconds or so, the lock was opened.
Patriarch Feng immediately pushed the door open and rushed in.
But as soon as he entered, he ran into a solid wall of flesh.
Patriarch Feng was somewhat baffled.
The bodyguards following him were stunned as well.
There were no girls in the bedroom, just four young men of imposing stature.
They were dressed in identical uniforms, and a badge was pinned to the upper left corner of their shirts.
Yi Character Team, Second Team, and Third Team.
“We’ve been squatting here for so long, and this damn fool finally comes to us.” The Second Team Leader scoffed coldly, not giving Patriarch Feng a moment to react, he pulled out handcuffs and clasped them on him, “You sure are cautious, sonny. Any little stir, and you freeze up. Where’s all that bravado about catching people now?”
Patriarch Feng’s head buzzed, and for a moment, he couldn’t comprehend the meaning of these words.
Mechanically looking up, he saw the Second Team Leader’s badge on his chest.
As if remembering something, Patriarch Feng’s body shook violently, trembling with horror, “Yi, Yi Character Team?!”
It was back in March that the Yi Character Team had made a significant move in the capital.
The Wu family’s dealings in the shadows were suddenly exposed, linked to both an airplane accident and a car crash; the entire Wu family was taken down.
This had all the families in the capital on edge.
Apart from families like the Mu family and Nie Family, which were under strict control, not many families hadn’t touched some grey areas.
Most hadn’t done anything illegal or harmful, and were within normal limits.
But if the Yi Character Team set their sights on you, anything could be dug up.
Now, Patriarch Feng’s brain had shut down entirely; he just couldn’t fathom why the Yi Character Team had their sights set on the Feng family.
Among so many families in the capital, the Feng family was hardly noteworthy.
“But you still came knocking on our door.” The Third Team Leader cracked a smile, “Well, it’s like catching a turtle in a jar; can’t blame us for having to send you in.”
“Why bother talking to him.” The Second Team Leader gestured to the other two team members to move forward and handcuff his bodyguards as well, “Take them away.”
**
Ying Zijin was not at the training camp.
Because Sheng Qingtang had also specifically come to the Imperial Capital.
After learning that Mu Weifeng’s illness had been cured, Sheng Qingtang had specifically invited her to dine at the restaurant owned by the Hua Country Calligrapher Association.
“Little Divine Doctor, I really can’t thank you enough,” Sheng Qingtang brought over some home-grown pomelos, “If it weren’t for you, I would have lost my apprentice for life.”
Mu Weifeng was still recuperating, but he could already get out of bed.
Now that his chronic illness had been eradicated, he also called Sheng Qingtang to share the good news, mentioning he could start his apprenticeship.
Ying Zijin picked up a piece of osmanthus rice cake and nodded slightly, “As I mentioned before, I treat people based on fate, and your apprentice happens to be predestined.”
If she hadn’t gone to check Mu Weifeng’s life chart that night, she wouldn’t have known his condition.
By the agreed date, Mu Weifeng might have already passed away.
“Ah, that is truly fated,” Sheng Qingtang suddenly became excited, he ventured, “Little Divine Doctor, since it’s fated, how about you—”
Ying Zijin looked up, her voice calm and cool, “What is it?”
“Nothing, nothing,” Sheng Qingtang swallowed back his words, “Little Divine Doctor, please eat. This dessert is only available here, and I will get you a meal card later so you can come anytime.”
He actually wanted to set his apprentice up with the Little Divine Doctor, but for his own safety, he decided it was better not to speak up.
Ying Zijin rarely gave a compliment, “It tastes good.”
“Of course,” said Sheng Qingtang, brimming with pride, “The chef here was lured back from abroad with a traditional painting of mine, he’s worked in a Michelin Three-Star Restaurant, and his culinary skills are excellent.”
After thinking for a moment, he added, “Little Divine Doctor, it’s too late today, and the association has already closed. Since you’re in the Imperial Capital, why not take some time to get your identity card?”
Ying Zijin pondered briefly, “The day after tomorrow, Saturday.”
“Good, good, good,” Sheng Qingtang nodded vigorously, and then asked, “What will you be doing tomorrow and the day after?”
“Looking after a foolish kid.”
“…”

At this time, Patriarch Feng and those bodyguards had already been brought to the interrogation room specially designated by the Yi Character Team.
After being blasted by the cold wind all the way, Patriarch Feng’s brain finally started working again.
So the Yi Character Team had known that he was coming to capture someone at the training camp and had been lying in wait?
“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind,” the Second Team Leader put down a stack of documents, “Unfortunately, Miss Ying is not the cicada, and you are not fit to be the mantis.”
This form of address made Patriarch Feng’s face change drastically, “She’s with the Yi Character Team?!”
“Smart,” shrugged the Second Team Leader, “but Miss Ying doesn’t want to get involved and just has a nominal role.”
Patriarch Feng broke into an even colder sweat.
Who else could have a nominal position in the Yi Character Team without being active?
The person he wanted to capture was actually with the Yi Character Team!
Patriarch Feng’s mind buzzed again, continuously circling around one thought:
Who dares to accuse me in my court?
He was so cautious, yet he had kicked an iron plate!
Being brought here by the Yi Character Team meant that the Feng family was already being investigated.
“No, you can’t move against the Feng family now, I’ve already signed a contract with Orensea,” Patriarch Feng’s face twisted slightly, “You must let me finalize the deal with Orensea first!”
Given time, he could turn to the Xiu family for help, and there would still be a chance for redemption.
Patriarch Feng was sweating profusely but tried to appear fierce, “Let me make a call now, I want to meet Orensea’s manager.”
Orensea was a skincare company from the O continent, belonging to the Venus Group.
The industries under the Venus Group were so numerous they were uncountable.
Not to mention the wealthy families of the Imperial Capital, even the large financial consortiums of the O continent wanted to establish relationships with the Venus Group.
The Feng family was naturally not important enough to catch the eye of the Venus Group, and it was only because they had developed a new perfume that they were able to collaborate with Orensea.
But Orensea was just a small company within the whole Venus Group.
“Forget it, we can’t give you a cell phone,” the Second Team Leader snorted coldly, “We’ve seen too many like you, no slick tricks.”
“I’m serious!” Patriarch Feng was dripping with sweat, “You have to let me finalize the deal with Orensea first, losing business with a subsidiary of the Venus Group is too big of a loss to handle!”
The Mu family was the premier business empire of the Imperial Capital, and they would not dare to neglect the transactions with the subsidiaries of the Venus Group.
“Oh, so now you’re making threats?” the Second Team Leader picked at his ear with a strange expression, “The manager of Orensea isn’t available, but the Executive Director of the Venus Group is here, just arrived. Do you want to meet him?”
