Chapter 290: Chapter 161: Safe Return_3
Facing Yu Xiaozhou’s repeated request for a visit, Yan Fei reflected on how Duan Hongye had twice saved him in the most critical moments and felt it would be inappropriate to refuse again. Although he was eager to exchange information with Lu Pingping, he agreed to meet with Yu Xiaozhou first.
Yan Fei and Yu Xiaozhou had a private meeting in the reception room, where Yu Xiaozhou first assessed Yan Fei’s complexion. Noticing a trace of weariness on Yan Fei’s face, she began, “Mr. Yan, it seems you’ve been recovering quite well recently!”
Yan Fei took a sip of tea and replied, “I have to thank your department’s arrangements. With the protection you provided, I didn’t have to worry about my safety, allowing me to recover faster.”
Yu Xiaozhou said, “Mr. Yan, I personally advise that you should not post any tasks on the Internet anymore. Though you were lucky to succeed this time, there’s no guarantee you won’t slip up next time, which would spell big trouble for you. You must trust the state. The nation will not let down enterprises that contribute to society.”
Yan Fei knew Yu Xiaozhou was subtly reminding him to avoid entanglements with the Dark Web and to trust the nation’s ability to handle relevant events. Due to confidentiality, Yu Xiaozhou didn’t mention the Special Duty Group’s operation in the Middle East but did remind Yan Fei that the country had not been idle regarding this affair.
Yan Fei was well aware of everything the country had done for him and was very satisfied. He nodded and said, “The state has already responded to the incident involving our company’s employees. I understand the nation’s intentions and won’t be posting anything online anymore.”
Seeing that Yan Fei had not explicitly stated it but had assured that he would not easily post any bounty tasks, Yu Xiaozhou finally breathed a sigh of relief. In her eyes, Yan Fei was a novice without any experience, making numerous mistakes when posting bounty tasks on the Dark Web, which were quickly noticed by others. If Yan Fei refrained from posting such tasks in the future, it would reduce his risk of exposure, and her advice was for his own good.
Then Yu Xiaozhou asked, “Mr. Yan, have you heard about the massacre that occurred in the United States?”
With a look of surprise, Yan Fei asked, “What massacre?”
Yu Xiaozhou recounted, “Last night, the board of directors of Green Pine Capital was having a meeting, but their venue was suddenly raided. All the members of Green Pine Capital’s board were killed. It’s unclear who was responsible. Mr. Yan, have you not heard about this? It’s been all over the Internet!”
Yan Fei scratched the back of his head and said with an honest smile, “I’ve been recuperating at home these past few days, barely going online, so I had no idea what was happening outside. If such a massacre truly occurred, it indicates one thing: public safety in the United States is deteriorating. By comparison, our country is so much better. One can leave their belongings unattended on the streets, and the doors of homes need not be closed at night.”
After Yu Xiaozhou mentioned the incident, she constantly observed Yan Fei’s facial expressions. Unfortunately for her, Yan Fei was now in full control of his composure, displaying only a look of surprise, with no sign of abnormality.
To Yu Xiaozhou, who knew the inside story, Yan Fei was the prime suspect in the massacre of Green Pine Capital. However, given his naive demeanor, if he were behind it, he would have certainly offered a bounty on the Dark Web for someone else to carry out the hit. Since there was no such bounty notice on the Dark Web, it seemed unlikely that Yan Fei was the mastermind—a misconception bolstered by his carefully crafted naive image. Moreover, hardly anyone would have thought Yan Fei capable of traveling back and forth across the Pacific in the span of a day, taking out Green Pine Capital’s people, and returning to China.
Unable to gain the information she sought from Yan Fei, Yu Xiaozhou was not discouraged. Instead, she was relieved as she said, “Our team leader has informed me that the Al-Assassin Sect, which brutally killed your employees, has been eradicated by an unknown force. You and Lu Pingping are now safe and no longer require our protection. Thus, the military protecting you both withdrew last night.”
With a grateful expression, Yan Fei responded, “I am extremely thankful to the People’s Liberation Army. Because of their protection, we could sleep peacefully! Now it seems that the Al-Assassin Sect was not well-regarded, and someone has kindly taken care of them for me. I also want to thank the state for its concern and help. Dream Technology will strive even harder to create more jobs and contribute more taxes to repay the state’s support!”
Yan Fei truly meant his words—the state had done well in this matter, dispatching experts to the Middle East. Even though they hadn’t eliminated Huo Shan, they had nonetheless saved Yan Fei again, with Duan Hongye even sustaining serious injuries. Additionally, the state had sent the army to protect him and Lu Pingping, and after obtaining evidence, it had applied pressure on Green Pine Capital, demonstrating the state’s commitment to protecting its domestic enterprises.
Yu Xiaozhou paused before reminding Yan Fei, “Some things you do overseas may not pose a problem, but don’t bring them back to the homeland. Otherwise, once you disrupt national order, it could lead to grave mistakes, and no one would be able to save you!”
Yan Fei understood that Yu Xiaozhou was cautioning him not to issue tasks on the Dark Web targeting individuals within China, knowing that to maintain the existing order, the state would definitely intervene against him. He nodded and said, “I understand. Maintaining the stability and prosperity of the country is a duty of every citizen.”
Yu Xiaozhou added finally, “As for the Yang Family of Beijing within the country, the authorities will naturally have plans for them, so I hope you won’t do anything foolish!”
The China Special Duties Unit had, of course, seen the video Yan Fei uploaded on the Internet about the eradication of the Al-Assassin Sect. In the video, Yang Wanlin, a representative of the Yang Family, had admitted their collusion with Al-Assassin and Green Pine Capital against Dream Technology, so the state was undoubtedly aware of this matter. By informing Yan Fei, Yu Xiaozhou was reminding him not to act on his own, as the state would consider how to deal with the issue.
The Yang Family of Beijing had deep roots within China, having built an extensive web of influence through the bonds of interest. Even if the state was aware that the Yang Family had broken the law, it couldn’t act against them immediately and needed time. Considering this, Yu Xiaozhou felt compelled to warn Yan Fei, fearing that his youthful impulsiveness might lead him to issue another bounty task, use the Destroyer to eliminate Yang Liu, and thus create an uncontrollable situation.

Yan Fei had his own plans but wouldn’t share them with Yu Xiaozhou. Instead, he nodded in agreement and said, “I understand. I trust that the state will arrive at a fair and just outcome.”
After all was said, Yu Xiaozhou took her leave.
