"Yes, indeed there’s nothing to be found."

Seeing the puzzled look on Lu Tianxing’s face, Lin Yafei slowly explained, "All the surveillance has been manually erased, and there’s no way to recover it. Also, everyone who saw him in the café has had their memories wiped clean using a secret technique; even hypnosis won’t help us recall who the mysterious masked man’s companion was."

"So if we find out who the mysterious masked man met, we could uncover his identity?" Lu Tianxing asked softly.

Lin Yafei nodded slightly and said, "That’s right. To determine the identity of this mysterious masked man, we must find out who he met with. Only by starting from this angle can we discover who this mysterious masked man really is, why he’s looking for Bai Zhiqing, and what he told her that led to her transformation. Once we find this out, I believe everything will come to light."

Upon hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Lu Tianxing didn’t speak but kept tapping the sofa armrest, lost in thought.

Lin Yafei also remained silent, contemplating the identity of this mysterious masked man, her mind racing with possible suspects.

After a while, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath and slowly spoke, "If that’s the case, Lin Demon, keep investigating discreetly for me. Also, double the personnel responsible for protecting Zhiqing, but keep them hidden. Don’t let Zhiqing know. Inform me immediately if Zhiqing has any contact with the mysterious masked man again."

"Alright, I understand."

Lin Yafei nodded slightly, speaking gently to Lu Tianxing, "Little man, you don’t need to worry too much now. Little Qingqing is probably not in any danger. If the mysterious masked man really intended to harm Little Qingqing, he would have plenty of opportunities during their meeting at the café. But he didn’t, which suggests he has other intentions or something to discuss with Little Qingqing, yet neither wants us to know."

"So Little Qingqing isn’t in great danger right now. But the conversation between her and the mysterious masked man is definitely crucial and is the reason for her current transformation..."

Lu Tianxing listened to Lin Yafei’s words, nodding in agreement. Bai Zhiqing’s transformation is surely related to the mysterious masked man, and they must have had a significant conversation.

But what exactly was discussed between Bai Zhiqing and this mysterious masked man? Could this conversation be related to him?

It is perplexing that just one conversation could lead to Bai Zhiqing’s sudden transformation into her current heavily burdened state. This is what confounds Lu Tianxing the most, and what he most wants to understand.

At this moment, neither Tang Qingyun nor Yang Anlong realized that Bai Zhiqing’s slight abnormality had immediately caught the attention of the meticulous and perceptive Lin Yafei.

After all, in Tang Qingyun and Yang Anlong’s view, Bai Zhiqing is the chairwoman of Bai’s Group, having weathered countless storms in business and survived danger alongside Lu Tianxing. Bai Zhiqing should be capable of hiding her emotions and maintaining her usual demeanor at all times, expertly masking her expressions and leaving nothing to uncover.

Bai Zhiqing indeed possesses this ability, but Tang Qingyun and Yang Anlong underestimated her love for Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei as well.

It’s important to note that Lin Yafei and Bai Zhiqing have been close friends for several years, understanding each other deeply. The one who knows Bai Zhiqing best is not Bai Zhiqing herself, but her dear friend Lin Yafei. Any subtle change in Bai Zhiqing is most likely unnoticed by herself, and even Lu Tianxing, but Lin Yafei would detect it immediately.

Lin Yafei simply couldn’t fathom what the true identity of the mysterious masked man was.

Despite having several suspects in mind, Lin Yafei was yet to pinpoint the real masked man. It’s not due to anything else but that Lu Tianxing has numerous enemies, and many wish for his downfall.

Hence, identifying the mysterious masked man in a short time is virtually as difficult as climbing into heaven.

Later, Lu Tianxing exhaled heavily, "Never mind, I can’t figure it out now. When the time comes, the truth will naturally emerge. In the meantime, Lin Demon, just take care of Zhiqing."

This is consistent with Lu Tianxing’s character, disliking getting caught in an endless loop of thought. Since he can’t figure it out, he won’t try to. Cross the bridge when he comes to it. The fact that the mysterious masked man sought out Bai Zhiqing means there will certainly be another encounter. It will be easy to find him then. Besides, Lu Tianxing had already made preparations in secret; Bai Zhiqing’s safety shouldn’t be a significant concern.

As long as Bai Zhiqing isn’t harmed, any big issues can be resolved effortlessly.

Lin Yafei remained silent, her enchanting almond-shaped eyes gleaming with intelligence, clearly choosing not to let the matter drop like Lu Tianxing, but pondering the true culprit behind the scene.

...

Meanwhile, in Xiangjiang, Huang Feiyu and Xue Bing stood outside a villa, unable to hide their shock as they watched Zhan Pengfei and the man in black trading blows in the air, fists tightly clenched. Their strongest fighter now is Zhan Pengfei; if he loses to the man in black, their situation becomes perilous.

"You’re going to lose, Zhan Pengfei. Considering your middle-stage mythical level, why don’t you kneel before me and pledge allegiance? I’ll spare your life."

After a fierce collision, both Zhan Pengfei and the man in black withdrew backward.

However, compared to Zhan Pengfei who was thrown back, the man in black merely retreated a few steps before stabilizing himself, coldly smiling at Zhan Pengfei.

Undeniably, Zhan Pengfei is powerful, but in the eyes of the man in black, his strength is insufficient. If not appreciating Zhan Pengfei’s abilities and wanting him to join the Tang Family, Zhan Pengfei would already be dead.
