If the Lin Family was really that easy to infiltrate, then why are they still guarding outside? Wouldn’t they have figured out where Lin Caisang went?

That woman gave birth to a child without making a sound. It shows how formidable she is.

"Can you get in?" he asked his subordinate.

"Uh."

The subordinate was stumped by his question.

Yeah, the truth is, getting into the Lin Residence is impossible.

It’s not because the servants in the Lin Residence are particularly powerful, but rather... there are no servants at all in the Lin Residence.

It’s just a few of their own people in the residence, so how are they supposed to blend in? It’s not like they can turn invisible, and they don’t have that kind of skill.

"I was wrong."

"It’s good that you know your mistake!"

The leader gave him a cold glance and then looked at the other subordinates.

"The few of you, go draw the Lin Family’s attention. I’ll take some people to capture Lin Caisang. As soon as we have her, everyone retreats immediately."

He instructed.

"Yes, leader," the subordinates responded.

At this point, they were like ducks being driven onto the shelves. If they didn’t accomplish this task, going back meant death for them.

Moreover, from the time they started working for their master, they were fed poison, so they couldn’t escape even if they wanted to.

Even though it seemed like a suicide mission, they had no choice but to go.

Everyone took a deep breath, determined to stare fearlessly at the Lin Family’s gate, thinking that once they completed this task, nothing more challenging should come their way, right?

Because there’s nothing tougher than the current task.

"Prepare to move out."

With those words, the leader swiftly led everyone under the cover of night towards the Lin Family.

"Oh no!"

Just returning from the Ding Family and not yet reaching the Lin Family, Ding Rong noticed several black-clad figures heading towards the Lin Family in the darkness and almost screamed.

Fortunately, Ding Xu covered her mouth in time to prevent alarming those people.

"Mmph, mmph mmph."

After a while, when there was no one outside, Ding Rong angrily smacked Ding Xu’s hand away.

"What are you doing?"

"I’m just worried you’d startle them."

Ding Xu retracted his hand, replying sheepishly.

Ding Rong: "..."

She just wanted to ask, who was startling whom? Was it her startling the black-clad figures, or were those figures startling her?

"No, we should hurry and help."

Suddenly realizing, now is not the time to talk about these things. So many black-clad figures broke into the Lin Family, shouldn’t they go help?

If they’re going to help, then why are they standing here?

"Wait."

Seeing her about to go over, Ding Xu quickly reached out to hold her back.

"What for?"

Ding Rong turned around and asked him.

"Our most important task isn’t helping, but protecting what we have. As for those people, sis, do you really think they can gain an advantage with Commander Lin there?"

Ding Xu asked her.

Whether they go to help isn’t crucial.

But, what’s in their hands must not be compromised — it must be protected at all costs.

As for those black-clad figures, frankly, he was quite worried about whether they could leave the Lin Family alive. The answer is obviously not.

"You know, you might be right."

Ding Rong looked at the two boxes in her hands, then at the box in Ding Xu’s hand, and nodded.
