Yang Yurong shook her head: "Silly child, these things are not absolute; success depends on effort."

Liang Jiayi nodded, her face showing a determined look.

"No matter what, I will not let the Evil Dragon disband. It's a heroic unit and my brother's only legacy."

Yang Yurong smiled faintly, giving Liang Jiayi a meaningful glance.

"Jiayi, I'm happy for you; you've finally matured a lot."

Saying this, Yang Yurong changed the subject.

"To be honest, Colonel Yang isn't bad, but he has no background, coming from grassroots."

"A person like him, fighting to become a Colonel, is already the limit."

"He can't provide you any help, and your path has just begun."

Yang Yurong sighed at this point.

"The most important thing between husband and wife is to grow together. I don't want you to regret your choice later."

Liang Jiayi's mouth showed a hint of bitterness, yet she obediently nodded: "Mom, I'll follow your advice."

The hint of bitterness on Liang Jiayi's face did not escape Yang Yurong, who sighed.

"Jiayi, whether you marry into the Liang Family to keep the Evil Dragon for your brother or for Yang Fei, it doesn't matter to me."

"In any case, it's all in the past. You shouldn't live just for yourself; think about me and your dad, think about the Liang Family."

"We're old now; the Liang Family can't rely on you alone."

Liang Jiayi nodded silently.

The mother and daughter spoke softly, walking slowly, while Liang Jiayi's father, Liang Shitong, had already strode forward to the Chu Residence.

Madam Chu warmly welcomed him.

"Dear in-laws, it was a hard journey; please come in, our Old Chu has already set up the Go board waiting for you."

Madam Chu finished speaking and pushed Chu Liang: "Silly child, greet everyone properly, it's impolite."

Chu Liang's refined and elegant face showed complete respect, as he bowed deeply.

"Dad, please come in."

Liang Shitong nodded slightly, looking Chu Liang up and down, and frowned.

"You have dark circles, what's going on? Young people should cultivate good living habits."

Chu Liang was somewhat at a loss at being scolded at the first meeting by his father-in-law and didn't know how to respond.

He didn't realize that Liang Shitong was a legendary figure, straightforward and fiery in nature.

Transferring from the military to local areas, and rising from there as a powerful reform figure.

Seeing the tense situation, Yang Yurong hurried over, grabbing Liang Shitong's hand.

"Your stubborn temper is acting up again, frightening the child."

Yang Yurong spoke apologetically to Madam Chu.

"Dear in-mother-in-law, Chu Liang, don't mind us. Our Old Liang is just like this, speaking out of turn, oblivious of time and place."

Chu Liang kept saying he dared not, while Madam Chu laughed jovially, shaking her head repeatedly.

"No harm, no harm. It's our honor that Chu Liang can benefit from the in-laws' teachings."

She said, pushing Chu Liang again.

"Jiayi is here, go and talk to her. I can manage this on my own."

Chu Liang nodded, respectfully gesturing: "Dad, Mom, Jiayi, please come inside."

Yang Yurong and Liang Shitong exchanged a glance and, under Chu Liang's guidance, stepped into the Chu Family Courtyard.

For some reason, Liang Jiayi felt a burning gaze on her back.

She turned to look but saw nothing.

Quietly in her heart, Liang Jiayi sighed.

"Is it possible that I still can't forget him at this moment?"

"No matter what, the Evil Dragon cannot be disbanded — not just for my brother, but for him as well."

With these thoughts, Liang Jiayi sighed one last time and entered the Chu Family Courtyard.

What Liang Jiayi didn't know was that, at this moment, Yang Fei, dressed in a suit, was watching her from a distance.

Yang Fei had followed Liang Shitong's family to this place.

Finding Liang Jiayi was not easy, but finding a heavyweight figure like Liang Shitong was actually not hard.

For Yang Fei, this was a piece of cake.

And by finding Liang Shitong, he found Liang Jiayi too.

At that moment, a luxury car stopped, and five or six people got out dressed lavishly yet discreetly.

A different group of poodles had arrived.

Yang Fei laughed and followed this group inside.

He listened as the leading lady greeted Madam Chu, exchanging pleasantries. Soon, Yang Fei blended in with them, entering the Chu Family Courtyard.

The Chu Family Courtyard is a historic quadrangle, antique and a protected cultural site.

The courtyard paved with bluestone featured seven or eight Eight Immortals tables, simple yet elegant.

Given the status of the Chu and Liang families, they could reserve the most luxurious hotel in the Capital City.

Yet, even the wealthiest from the Forbes Rich List couldn't host a banquet at this simple and rustic courtyard.

Gathering here symbolized status.

Ordinary people, regardless of wealth, could not walk in.

The dishes were simple, and the liquor was bulk Maotai, but the plates and bowls were all official kiln-produced.

Although replicas, they exuded a unique heritage.

And at this moment, Yang Fei sat at an Eight Immortals table in the Northeast Corner, not bothering with anyone, appearing mysterious.

His lazy demeanor made him stand out among a group of cautious offspring of wealthy families.

A bunch of second-generation heirs, usually acting pompous and domineering, now didn't dare utter a sound.

After all, today's occasion was too grand.

An inappropriate joke or unseemly conduct could quietly cause trouble within this circle.

This might fall under some important figure's notice, planting the seeds of disaster.

Yang Fei, indifferent to these, smelled the fragrant bulk Maotai, sensing a craving and itching throat.

He ignored whether the feast officially started and poured himself a bowl, downing it in one go.

With one swallow, Yang Fei was delighted.

He could instantly tell that this seemingly bulk white liquor Maotai was aged for at least thirty years.

This was rare and priceless in the market.

Heavens, truly luxurious, masking such fantastic liquor as bulk white liquor showcased understated elegance and depth.

Yang Fei praised silently, driven by drink cravings, he dragged over the barrel, filling bowl after bowl and downing them.

Watching him drink like it was water, emptying bowl after bowl,

The table of second-generation heirs looked around dumbfounded.

Who was this guy, to be so audacious at such a grand banquet!

In many minds, anyone doing this either had a substantial background or was simple-minded.

Observing Yang Fei's crude actions and casual demeanor, many guessed he might be the latter.

Hence, despite their restraint, their looks inevitably held some disdain.
