9:10 p.m.
After turning on her phone, Lin Yue made a call to her mother-in-law, saying she was about to disembark.
"Okay, Mom will wait for you in the car at the parking lot, I won’t co up, soone will be waiting for you at the exit corridor."
"Alright, Mom," Lin Yue happily went to collect her luggage, and then saw a woman with short and neat hair waiting for her at the exit corridor, tentatively asking in the crowd, "Lin Yue, Miss Lin?"
"Yes, that’s ," Lin Yue replied with a smile.
The female police officer beside Yu Ling was montarily dazzled by Lin Yue’s beauty and smile.
She imdiately helped her with her luggage, "Please follow ."
The two took the elevator through a special corridor straight to the underground parking lot.
There was a car with its lights on, flanked by two n standing guard.
Lin Yue didn’t know that these two were plainclothes guards ard with guns!
The car was plain, just an Audi.
But the license plate was sowhat extraordinary.
Essentially, all the Elder’s cars in the nation bore license plates with an exclusive prefix corresponding to their status!
Even family mbers’ cars have a prefix, though not the unique license plate number.
The advantage was the police escort while driving!
For the first ti in her life, Lin Yue experienced how smooth it was to drive on the crowded highway with a police motorcade clearing the way.
Sensing her unease, Yu Ling laughed and patted the back of her hand that was resting on her knee.
"Why are you nervous? Feng’s dad won’t bite."
How could Lin Yue not be nervous?
As ti passed, it also ant that she would soon et Gu Feng’s father!
According to Uncle Gu Yuan, he wasn’t the ceiling of the Gu Family; she wondered how soone with such a significant position wasn’t considered the family’s ceiling?
Now she had seen it for herself.
She beca increasingly apprehensive about how to face this family-level father-in-law!
When the car arrived at the entrance of the compound and underwent inspection by the security guard, Lin Yue’s heartbeat accelerated.
"Mom, we’re not going to live inside, are we?" Lin Yue asked.
Yu Ling, curious, "Didn’t Feng tell you?"
Lin Yue shook her head.
But it seed she rembered.
The first ti she and Gu Feng finished their arranged eting and he went back ho to get his household registration to bring back to her, it was near here; she had even seen the solemn entrance of the Military Martial Arts Compound.
Indeed, at that ti, she got quite a scare, thinking that Gu Feng’s family lived inside.
Now, it wasn’t just an assumption; his family really ca from inside here!
It was over, completely over!
For the first ti ever, Lin Yue felt a deep sense of inferiority and unworthiness.
Perhaps a person from such a family, Gu Feng, might not look up to her?
"Don’t be afraid, I’m here for you," Yu Ling thought Lin Yue was afraid of Gu Feng’s father, so she gently grabbed Lin Yue’s hand and comforted her with a kind smile.
Influenced by her serene deanor, Lin Yue’s heart fird up a bit more.
She silently sighed to herself: Let it be, he has smoothed things over with my family; no matter what, I must help him deal with his side and do my best to be his good wife when he needs .
Even if they divorced in the future, this part of her love and marriage would be a beautiful Chapter in her life!
At least, his family mbers had indeed been quite kind to her.

At the sa ti.
In a local barbecue stall in Beijing, four n surrounded by over a dozen bottles of strong liquor were talking, laughing, and crying.
These n were Gu Feng, Li Yan, Long Chao, and Cheng Gong.
They were once comrades from Dragon Thorn.
After an attack three years ago, which resulted in the sacrifice of three comrades, only these four were left.
Hearing that Gu Feng had avenged their big grievance, they kept toasting their team leader, Gu Feng, glass after glass.
As they drank, they started to cry.
Gu Feng couldn’t stand to see the grown n getting sentintal after all these years, and slapping their shoulders said, "Our generation of Dragon Thorn might be gone, but once together we were the pinnacle, now scattered we are stars across the sky, what’s there to lant about?"
Li Yan, "Exactly, don’t be a buzzkill, cheer up, let’s have a good chat."
After wiping away his tears, Cheng Gong started talking about what he was currently doing, "I’m now in charge of reaching out to the Longteng Private Security rcenary Group, the higher-ups want to make an effort to see if I can get in touch with the senior managent of this company."
Gu Feng, who was pouring himself a drink, paused noticeably, "When did you start contacting them?"
Cheng Gong said, "I entered the company last year, but their assessnt for promotion is really not simple. To get in touch with the top executives, you need to advance based on your own strength."
Li Yan laughed, "Shouldn’t that be easy for you? We Dragon Thorn mbers have world-class combat ability; others may need years, but shouldn’t you be able to enter their core focus staff tier within a year?"
Cheng Gong gave a wry smile, "I thought so too, but shafully, I’m still on the fringe, feeling like I’ve let our troops down."
Long Chao chid in, "I’ve also heard of this organization, it’s a mysterious force that has risen unexpectedly in the past two years. I collaborated with a mber of this organization once on the rcenary battlefield, very strong!"
Gu Feng, interested, "Ah Chao, you went into rcenary work?"
Li Yan explained for him, "He was sent to the East Middle region, as our country cannot station troops there, so they established a rcenary group, in reality, to protect the local oil extraction operations."
Gu Feng suddenly understood; in fact, he wanted to change the topic, but Cheng Gong asked Long Chao, "The Longteng employee you t, did they have a codena?"
