    Xiao Cheng had been eager to return to the capital to see his sister for a long time, but he had spent the past year on missions, including assignments across China and overseas. This time, the higher-ups, knowing he was heading back for the holidays, allowed him and Ye Hanchen toe.


    Initially, they were monitoring suspects for a drug-rted mission and nned to apprehend them when they made a deal in the restroom. However, they hadn’t anticipated that the criminals would take a child hostage. With the addition of the hostage situation, their priority shifted to rescuing the child first.


    Gu Yang’s intervention was a huge help, saving them from having to negotiate under pressure.


    Upon returning to the Xiao family home, Xiao Cheng was warmly weed.


    Grandma Xiao greeted him with a kind smile. “Ah Cheng is back!”


    Grandpa Xiao, who had been drinking tea with Old Master Qin, set his teacup down with a smile. “It’s good to have you back.”


    To avoid worrying Grandpa and Grandma Xiao, no one mentioned Gu Yang’s encounter at the mall.


    This year, Gu Yang was spending the Mid-Autumn Festival at the Xiao family home. It was her first Mid-Autumn Festival back with the Xiao family, and Tong Wan had also invited the Gu family and Feng Jue to join the celebration.


    With the closer rtionship between the Gu and Xiao families due to Gu Yang and Gu Jin, the asion was more significant than before.


    However, Xiao Cheng’s mood soured when he saw Feng Jue, his sister’s boyfriend. Although he knew about the rtionship, the thought of Feng Jue being present while his sister had been kidnapped outside left him displeased.


    Feng Jue, feeling the weight of Xiao Cheng’s scrutiny, greeted him politely, “Second Brother.”


    “Hmph.” Xiao Cheng’s gaze was cold. The sight of Feng Jue, whom he perceived as weak, only heightened his concerns about his sister’s safety.


    Xiao Cheng asked, “Do you know how to fight?”


    Feng Jue answered modestly, “A little.”


    Xiao Cheng’s expression hardened. “Then let’s have a sparring match.”


    Gu Yang intervened, pulling Xiao Cheng aside. “Second Brother, it’s a festive asion. It’s not appropriate to fight now.”


    Xiao Cheng shot a frustrated nce at Gu Yang, feeling even more dissatisfied with Feng Jue. His sister was actually defending this man?


    Xiao Cheng said, “It’s just a sparring match. I won’t beat him to death or cripple him.”


    Gu Yang was taken aback. It sounded like Xiao Cheng intended to do exactly that.


    Xiao Yize was quite amused by the situation. Whether it was Xiao Cheng or Feng Jue getting beaten up, he didn’t mind at all.


    Gu Jin felt simrly. Though her sister had once been her only focus, now with Xiao Yize as her boyfriend, she was more willing to ept him. However, with Xiao Cheng involved, she wouldn’t have minded if Xiao Cheng and Feng Jue ended up fighting it out.


    Thus, Gu Jin and Xiao Yize approached. Gu Jin pulled Gu Yang close and said, “Just watch.”


    With an elegant smile, Xiao Yize added, “Yes, sister. They know their limits.”


    While the sparring wouldn’t end in serious injury, it might leave them bruised. As the eldest brother, Xiao Yize advised Gu Yang, “Let’s make sure they spar properly. No serious injuries, especially to the face. It wouldn’t be good if either of them ended up disfigured.”


    Xiao Cheng’s gaze, which had initially been dismissive, grew more intense as he eyed Feng Jue’s fair and handsome face, his expression bing increasingly menacing.


    Feng Jue: “…” Why didn’t he realize that Xiao Yize was such a dog in the past? He must have learned this from Gu Jin!
