Lu Tianxing had just boarded the plane to Xiangjiang when Tang Qingyun and Yang Anlong received the news almost immediately. Upon learning that Lu Tianxing left Beijing alone and Bai Zhiqing did not follow him to Xiangjiang, both couldn’t help but show a trace of a smug smile on their faces.

"Congratulations, Young Master Tang. It seems your plan has half succeeded, and Bai Zhiqing indeed hasn’t told Lu Tianxing about the affair, or otherwise, Lu Tianxing wouldn’t have gone to Xiangjiang alone, and Bai Zhiqing wouldn’t have stayed in Beijing."

In a private room of a top hotel, Yang Anlong sat in the chair, holding a glass of red wine, and raised his glass towards Tang Qingyun.

Tang Qingyun similarly raised his glass, clinked glasses with Yang Anlong, downed the drink in one gulp, and showed a faint smile: "Yang Family Master, what’s there to be happy about? Although Bai Zhiqing didn’t follow Lu Tianxing to Xiangjiang nor told him about the matter, Bai Zhiqing has yet to make up her mind. Hence, our plan is only halfway successful."

Though he said this, his face still bore a smile, but Tang Qingyun’s heart didn’t feel much joy. He clearly knew why Lu Tianxing left Beijing; it was all due to their Tang family’s elites, using them to lure Lu Tianxing out of Beijing, which was quite an expensive price. However, as long as his plan proceeds smoothly, as long as Lu Tianxing is killed, these losses would be within the bearable range.

"Half-successful is still a success. As long as Bai Zhiqing can’t escape, the plan succeeding should be a straightforward matter."

Yang Anlong said with a light smile: "Not sure what Young Master Tang plans next. Will you continue to press Bai Zhiqing to make a choice or deal with Lin Yafei, this woman?"

Upon hearing Yang Anlong’s words, Tang Qingyun’s eyes flashed with light, and he said, "I wonder what insights the Yang Family Master has."

Hearing Tang Qingyun’s words, Yang Anlong didn’t hold back and directly spoke: "Young Master Tang, you’re joking. I wouldn’t dare call them insights, just some small suggestions!"

"Yang Family Master, please go ahead."

Tang Qingyun put down his wine glass and said, "Lu Tianxing left Beijing, Bai Zhiqing stayed; Young Master Tang’s plan succeeded halfway, but for the matter to fully succeed, we need to deal with another obstacle."

"Obstacle?"

Tang Qingyun’s brows slightly furrowed: "Yang Family Master, are you referring to Lin Yafei?"

"Exactly!"

Yang Anlong nodded and said: "Lin Yafei is incredibly smart; her alertness is unmatched by ordinary people. Moreover, she’s been Bai Zhiqing’s close friend for years, very familiar with Bai Zhiqing’s personality. She might deduce something from Bai Zhiqing’s actions. So, to use Bai Zhiqing against Lu Tianxing, we must first deal with Lin Yafei, this obstacle."

"You’re suggesting we kill Lin Yafei?"

Tang Qingyun frowned at Yang Anlong’s proposal, completely uninterested. He wanted to kill Lu Tianxing but didn’t want to deal with a madman. Killing Lin Yafei would certainly drive Lu Tianxing crazy. The maddened Lu Tianxing is frightening, and he didn’t want to provoke such a lunatic, even if he wanted Lu Tianxing dead, he didn’t want to face the berserk Lu Tianxing.

"No, not at all, Young Master Tang, you mustn’t misunderstand my meaning."

Yang Anlong looked at Tang Qingyun’s expression, waved his hand, and said: "Everyone knows Lin Yafei is Lu Tianxing’s woman, and Lu Tianxing is highly protective of his own. If Lin Yafei were killed, Lu Tianxing would surely go berserk, ruining our plan. It’s completely unworthy, especially now. Lin Yafei can die, but definitely not now."

Here, Yang Anlong paused, waited for Tang Qingyun to process his words, then continued: "I propose making Qingtian Alliance and Yama Palace clash, forcing Lin Yafei to step out and control the situation, thus diverting her attention. As long as we shift Lin Yafei’s focus, she’ll naturally have no time to concern herself with Bai Zhiqing. Then, Young Master Tang can immediately stimulate Bai Zhiqing, allowing your plan to proceed smoothly."

After hearing Yang Anlong’s words, Tang Qingyun remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yang Family Master, you’re correct, let’s proceed as you suggest. I will have Chen Changwu mobilize Qingtian Alliance to take on Yama Palace. It’s been too long; everyone thinks my Qingtian Alliance fears Yama Palace. This time, I will show everyone whether my Qingtian Alliance fears Yama Palace or not. But should unforeseen troubles arise, I hope the Yang Family Master can assist us."

"No problem, no problem, Young Master Tang, rest assured. As long as you ask, my Yang Family will support to the end. After all, we have a common goal."

Yang Anlong laughed heartily and said: "Young Master Tang, for our common purpose, for our plan to succeed, to kill Lu Tianxing, this little bastard, cheers."

"Cheers!"

Both lifted their glasses, gently clinked them, then raised their heads and drank the sake in one gulp.

In absolute interest, enemies can become friends.

Regardless of Tang Qingyun and Yang Anlong’s thoughts at this moment, their goal at this moment was the same, to plot against Lin Yafei, using Bai Zhiqing to get rid of Lu Tianxing.

"Young Master Tang, it’s time, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."

Yang Anlong said as he stood up: "Young Master Tang, if ever the Yang Family can be of service, feel free to ask, we will not refuse."

"Yang Family Master, you’re too polite."

Tang Qingyun’s eyes flashed with light and said: "Yang Family Master, I’ll see you off."

"No need, Young Master Tang, I’ll go myself."

Yang Anlong waved his hand, declining Tang Qingyun’s offer.

"Then, Yang Family Master, walk slowly." Tang Qingyun said with a smile.

Yang Anlong nodded, said nothing more, and directly walked out of the room.

As soon as Yang Anlong left, Tang Qingyun’s smile vanished instantly. He clapped his hands, and crisp clapping sounds resonated in the room.

In the next moment, a dull footstep abruptly came from outside, reaching Tang Qingyun’s ears, and immediately after, Tang Qingyun’s bodyguard Tang Da pushed the door open and walked in from outside.
