Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Xu Yue Ran Away_1 Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Xu Yue Ran Away_1 “What, Island Country?” Xu Fan was taken aback, his face falling into dismay as he couldn’t help but ask, “What are you going there for?”
“That micro-movie requires filming in Dongjing of the Island Country, the whole crew is going.”
“We have such a vast country in Yan Country, and we have to go to that tiny nation to shoot?” Xu Fan expressed his confusion.

“Can’t help it, who made ninjas from the Island Country such an important role in the micro-movie?

There’s quite a bit of screen time for them, and it’s necessary to shoot there for better scenic authenticity,” Xu Yixue explained earnestly.

“What if I go too?”
“What would you do there?

Are you worried I might get lost?” Xu Yixue teased with narrowed eyes and a radiant smile.

“Yes, even if you don’t get lost, someone might kidnap you.

Who would not be tempted, considering how beautiful you are?

It might just prompt some baddie,” Xu Fan said, pretending to be serious.

“What, being beautiful is wrong now?

You just love to worry unnecessarily.

With so many people in the crew, what could possibly happen?

Honey, I’ll only be gone for two days, it’s fine,” Xu Yixue spoke gently, her breath sweet, “You can’t leave here anyway, with the factory expansion going on—you should keep an eye on that.

Just wait for me at home peacefully until I return.”
“Hmm, okay,” Xu Fan thought for a moment and felt there shouldn’t be too much problem, so he said, “Take Xu Dan with you, and also the four security members assigned to Shi Yu.

Have them go as well.”
“Got it, following my husband’s orders,” Xu Yixue giggled and nodded.

…

The next day, after Xu Fan hugged Tongtong and saw Xu Yixue off on her flight, he went to the War Wolf Squad base to see how well they had learned the first six moves of the second phase of “Martial Venerable Combat Techniques,” and took the opportunity to teach them the next seven moves, thus completing a task.

As for the future, that was entirely up to their own efforts.

However, Xu Fan had great confidence in his training method.

He was certain that the War Wolf Squad could easily handle the Falcon Squad.

Of course, there was still a huge gap between the War Wolf Squad and his own Yifan Security team.

After all, one side was a modern special forces military, primarily relying on firearms and scientifically advanced tactical operations against mostly ordinary criminals and a few fierce bandits.

With their current strength, these adversaries were no longer an issue, and once they had mastered “Martial Venerable Combat Techniques,” they’d really have no pressure at all.

But Yifan Security was different, starting from a higher level, entirely composed of Ancient Martial Artists.

They would be facing Ancient Martial Artists as well, with increasingly stronger opponents, so naturally, the demands on them would also keep rising.

As Xu Fan was on his way to the War Wolf Squad, a major incident occurred in the Yanjing Xu Family, where he had originally belonged.

In the main hall of the Xu Family, Xu Tianhu sat in a Taishi Chair with imposing mien, his face seething with rage.

“This girl actually had the audacity to run away; has she grown tired of living?”
Hearing this, the two middle-aged women in charge of looking after Xu Yue knelt trembling on the ground, their faces full of panic and dread.

Xu Qiyin, standing beside him, also had a grim expression as he said, “Dad, the Qin Family had finally agreed to this marriage, and Qin Qinglong even came back to Yanjing specifically for this proposal.

Now that Xu Yue has run away, how are we going to explain this to the Qin Family?”
“Hmph!”
Just thinking about the matter made Xu Tianhu’s anger burn even brighter.

Ever since Xu Qiyin returned home from Zhonghai in a dejected manner, Xu Tianhu had come to realize that Xu Fan was no longer the good-for-nothing wastrel he used to be.

Instead, he was now a powerful ancient martial artist, which made Xu Tianhu worry.

He feared that sooner or later, Xu Fan would return to seek revenge in Yanjing, and he might be unable to cope with that.

After much thought, he devised a brilliant plan—to arrange a marriage with the Qin Family, another of the four major families, by marrying off Xu Yue to the dazzling rising star of the Qin Family’s generation, Qin Qinglong.

Qin Qinglong’s reputation was indeed impressive.

Known as the Azure Dragon of the Qin Family and dubbed alongside Xu Fangli as the “Yanjing Twin Stars”, he had become the leader of his generation in Yanjing, as well as the regional director of the Flame Dragon Organization in Yundian Province—a high-ranking official with great power and a promising future.

As for Xu Yue, she had always been known as one of Yanjing’s great beauties.

Even though her status in the Xu Family had fallen to the point where she was no different from a maid, she remained the goddess in the hearts of many aspiring young men.

Both parties were legitimate descendants of the four major families, well-matched in social status, and both attractive and talented.

To anyone, their union seemed like a perfect match, something that could very well be described as made by heaven and earth.

However, there was now a fatal issue with the arranged marriage—Xu Yue had run away.

These two maids on the ground, who had been tasked with taking care of Xu Yue and her mother, Zhang Qingning, had failed in their duties.

Xu Yue had disappeared right under their watch, and naturally, they had to be punished.

After all, with such a grave mistake, how were they going to explain it to the Qin Family?

Although both families were among the four major families of Yanjing, there were differences in strength between them.

In recent years, the Qin Family had shown a strong momentum that seemed set to surpass the Xu Family.

Setting aside other aspects, just Qin Qinglong alone from the younger generation had overshadowed the Xu Family by far, as the young members of the Xu Family had nobody who could match up to him.

Qin Qinglong, at such a young age, was already the regional director of a provincial division of the Flame Dragon Organization.

A few more years, and as Qin Qinglong’s strength increased and he made greater contributions, his ascent to even higher positions within the Flame Dragon Organization was inevitable, and the influence and status of the Qin Family would greatly increase.

The gap between the two families would only widen more and more.

“You two, what are you even good for, unable to keep an eye on a single girl?

Now that the situation has escalated, selling both of you wouldn’t even be enough to make it up.”
In his anger, Xu Tianhu couldn’t help but rebuke the two kneeling maids.

But the blame couldn’t all be placed on them.

After all, Xu Yue was nominally still the cherished daughter of the Xu Family.

The two were just maids and couldn’t possibly keep Xu Yue under house arrest.

They could only take care of her while keeping a closer watch.

If Xu Yue was determined to escape, she would likely find an opportunity—the maids couldn’t possibly monitor her at all times.

“Now, what should we do?” Xu Tianhu sighed helplessly.

In three days, Qin Qinglong would be returning to Yanjing.

If Xu Yue remained missing by then, no matter how they apologized, ill feelings would arise from the Qin Family.

Whether the marriage would be called off was uncertain, but their relationship would definitely suffer more than initially expected.

Of course, Xu Tianhu was not willing to bear such a loss.

Suddenly, Xu Qiyin’s phone chimed.

He looked at his phone and breathed a sigh of relief, “Dad, we’ve located Xu Yue’s itinerary.

She took the eight o’clock flight to Dongjing in the Island Country.”
The Xu Family naturally had an intelligence department.

If they really wanted to, tracking down Xu Yue was not difficult.

After all, we live in an information society.

Any banking transactions online, any logins with identity information, appearing under surveillance cameras—all could be traced back.

“Good!”
Xu Tianhu’s spirit was immediately lifted, and his expression eased a great deal.

Any news of Xu Yue was good news to him.
