Brother Long knocked on the door. His movements were unhurried, almost rhythmic, exuding a sense of calm composure.

Li Sen opened the door. He bent his back slightly, instantly diluting the upright air about him and making him look a bit more roguish. He leaned casually against the doorframe, his expression mild. "Brother Long, I presume? Please, come in."

Brother Long paused. "This is... Fang Xiang isn’t here?"

Li Sen gave a slight nod. "He’s inside. Please."

Brother Long’s eyes swept over Li Sen. He didn’t enter, but instead pulled out his phone to call Fang Xiang. The phone rang, and soon Fang Xiang’s voice came through. "Brother Long... I... I’m in the bathroom. My stomach suddenly started hurting... Please, come on in first."

"The guy at the door is Li Sen... Ouch, Brother Long, my stomach really hurts... I’m hanging up now..."

Brother Long’s suspicions were somewhat appeased, but for some reason, he still felt a sense of unease, as if something bad was about to happen.

Li Sen took a small step to the side. After Brother Long entered, Li Sen quickly shut and deadbolted the door, even securing the chain lock. This way, even if Brother Long sensed something was wrong and tried to flee, he wouldn’t be able to escape the suite so easily.

Tan You saw Li Sen’s actions from the inner room. She and Huang Yue then emerged, coming face to face with Brother Long.

The moment he saw Tang Li’s face clearly, Brother Long’s expression changed drastically. He spun around, ready to run. Unfortunately, in front of a human weapon like Li Sen, he could only be captured without a fight.

Even if he was a good fighter himself, he was no match for Li Sen.

Tan You couldn’t help but sigh. "I’m so envious. I want to be able to do that too."

Li Sen smiled. "If you train diligently, Director, you’ll be able to do it too."

Tan You replied, "My standards aren’t high. I’d be satisfied with even a third of your skill."

’Though she said that, Tan You was now completely determined. Once things here were settled, she would definitely find a master to train under. Primary missions might be manageable like this, but intermediate or advanced worlds wouldn’t be so easy to pass.’

’Without formidable strength, even someone with superior intelligence would inevitably be constrained.’

Compared to Fang Xiang, Brother Long was undoubtedly more tight-lipped and more resolute. Tan You didn’t waste words on him, quickly exposing all of his hidden identities.

"One after another, layers upon layers of aliases. You’ve built quite a fortune," Tan You said with a wry smile, but her eyes were piercingly cold.

Huang Yue fumed, "How many people must they have scammed?"

Tan You said, "Who knows? Things have come to this point, so it’s time to call the police. I just didn’t expect you to have people in the Notary Public Office, or that Fang Xiang would know I had already made a will."

"This isn’t something I can meddle in anymore. It’s best to leave professional matters to the professionals."

Brother Long’s expression was off. He practically glared at Fang Xiang. "You... How could you tell them everything?"

Fang Xiang cowered. "It... it wasn’t me..."

Tan You said, "You’re wronging him on that one. I have my own sources. I can’t be bothered to argue with you. Save it for the police uncles."

The moment Tan You mentioned calling the police, Li Sen had already made the call. The response on the other end was cautious. In less than twenty minutes, a group of officers arrived at the suite.

Upon seeing Brother Long, the lead officer’s expression changed. "We’ve been looking for you for a long time. I didn’t expect to run into you here."

At this point, Brother Long had no will to resist and could only hang his head as the police led him away. The lead officer came over to shake Tan You’s hand. "Regardless, we have to thank you, Ms. Tang. Catching this man will make our work a lot easier."

Tan You replied, "As long as the police uncles don’t mind my unconventional methods."

"Not at all. Ms. Tang, you used extraordinary measures for extraordinary times. We understand completely." The officer was gracious. "However, this is a major case, and this group clearly has accomplices. Until we’ve completely dismantled their network, Ms. Tang, your family..."

Tan You understood instantly. "I get it. I’ve already taken all necessary precautions back home. You don’t need to worry."

The officer sighed. "Alright. We’ll work to solve the case as quickly as possible. We won’t let our citizens live in fear."

Tan You’s lips curved into a smile. "Good. I have faith in our police uncles."

’The officer faltered at her use of "police uncles." He was only thirty-one, at most three years older than this Ms. Tang Li. How had he suddenly become an "uncle"?’

After seeing off the police and the group of professional swindlers, Tan You stretched languidly. "For now, the mission can be considered complete. But we can’t let our guard down."

As she spoke, she looked at Li Sen. "Brother Sen, if it’s convenient, would you mind going to my grandparents’ place? I’ll just keep Huang Yue with me, since that’s more convenient."

In any case, Tan You had already paid him, so Li Sen had no objection to the work location. That very afternoon, he boarded a plane to City A. Tan You had already given the Tang family’s elderly couple a heads-up. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Of course, the elderly Tang couple wouldn’t refuse Tan You’s arrangements. After all, she had explained everything clearly on the phone. Although some of the culprits had been taken in, who knew what their accomplices might do?

A wise person doesn’t stand under a crumbling wall—a principle everyone understood.

While Li Sen was providing close protection for the elderly Tang couple, Huang Yue returned to the film set with Tan You. She knew some of her colleagues had taken jobs as personal bodyguards for celebrities, but Huang Yue had never accepted such a mission, so she found it quite novel.

Of course, since Tan You wasn’t a celebrity, Huang Yue found the mission very relaxed. As for danger, well, it wasn’t really dangerous. They just took care of a few professional swindlers on the first day, and after that, it was smooth sailing.

It was the same for Li Sen. You could say it was the most comfortable mission either of them had ever taken.

Time passed, day by day. Soon, the first season of the show finished filming. By then, the first episode had already aired, causing a huge stir the moment it was broadcast.

Intangible cultural heritage was a hot topic, and with the addition of award-winning actor Xie Yunzhi and You Li, the show’s ratings were extremely high right from the premiere. The sole female guest, Ning Yao, was thrust into the spotlight and became an overnight sensation.

Ning Yao’s agent scrolled through the online comments, a little worried. "You’ve gained too many followers. Some negative comments are starting to appear online."

Ning Yao was calm. "I know. When many people see someone else’s success, they don’t consider the effort involved. Instead, they naturally make assumptions. That kind of thing happens everywhere."

"Things will settle down after the show has been on for a while. Everyone will eventually see what kind of person I am."

Her agent replied, "It still depends on the production team. As long as there’s no malicious editing, the consequences shouldn’t be too severe."
