Hearing Cui Anni's words, Ye Feng was stunned and asked in confusion:

"What huge trouble?"

Cui Anni shook her head and then looked directly at Allen, saying coldly:

"Go back and tell your boss Xu Feiyang that I will deliver that item to the Swiss Bank Depository tomorrow, and he should give up on getting it!"

Allen's face turned extremely ugly upon hearing Cui Anni's resolute words!

The Swiss Bank Depository, where global tycoons store their most valuable collectibles, is extremely well-defended. Once anything is stored there, forcibly retrieving it becomes impossible!

Even if a customer wants to retrieve their own collectible, they have to go through a rigorous inspection; only if it is confirmed that the customer is not under duress and there are no involuntary factors, is the retrieval allowed, or else the collectible will be kept there forever!

Allen knew that if Cui Anni was determined to place that item in the Swiss Bank Depository, they would have no way to get it!

Thinking that he had not only failed to get what he wanted but had also been seriously injured, Allen's hatred for Ye Feng reached its peak!

If it weren't for this guy getting in the way, he would have definitely succeeded!

"Good! Good!"

Allen laughed out of extreme anger, his eyes full of ruthlessness as he looked at Ye Feng and Cui Anni:

"You're ruthless! You think this is over? Just wait for our organization's crazy retaliation!"

With that, Allen was about to leave!

But Ye Feng's eyes flashed, and he slapped Allen's face hard again!

Smack!

The crisp sound echoed around the area, and Allen's face was instantly covered in blood, several teeth even fell out of his mouth!

"Damn bastard! If you fall into my hands, I will surely have you hacked to pieces!!!"

At that moment, Allen felt like a tiger being bullied by dogs; he believed that if he had paid enough attention to Ye Feng and hadn't been injured, he could have definitely broken Ye Feng's neck right now!

And hearing Allen's words, Ye Feng was about to strike again, but Cui Anni quickly stopped him:

"Ye Feng, let him go! Even if you kill him, it's useless!"

Seeing Cui Anni intervene, Ye Feng frowned slightly: "This guy definitely won't let this go, are you sure you want to let him go?"

Ye Feng was somewhat reluctant; he could see Allen's murderous intents, especially since his skills were formidable, and it would be troublesome if he came back later!

Ye Feng disliked troubles!

Cui Anni equally understood this truth, but still nodded firmly!

"Alright."

Ye Feng affirmed Cui Anni's insistence, feeling a bit helpless!

Seeing this scene, the sneer on Allen's lips grew even thicker; he knew they definitely dared not kill him, given his powerful background, which was something these two couldn't provoke!

"Heh heh! Kid, just you wait for me, the next time I see you, I'll make your life worse than death!"

After angrily uttering those words, Allen then intended to head downstairs!

However, Ye Feng's expression darkened, and a strong look of disgust appeared on his face:

"Get out the same way you came in!"

After speaking, Ye Feng didn't wait for Allen to react and suddenly kicked out with a Whip Kick!

Bang!

Crack!

When Ye Feng's Whip Kick hit Allen, a series of bone-cracking sounds erupted immediately, and Allen flew out of the window like a kite with its string cut off!

Hearing the dull thud from outside the window, along with Allen's screams of agony, Cui Anni looked at Ye Feng with a bewildered expression!

The moment Ye Feng defeated Allen with a single move had already shocked her to the extreme, but now this man's dominance was something she had never encountered before!

Looking at Ye Feng's handsome face, Cui Anni felt as though he had countless stories to tell, his aura brimming with a charming, mature masculinity!

Ye Feng turned his head to look at Cui Anni and, noticing her dazed expression, couldn't help but scratch his head and asked,

"Did I scare you?"

"No... not at all!"

It was then that Cui Anni came back to her senses, realizing that she had been gawking at Ye Feng, and her face instantly flushed with red!

"Ye Feng, come with me, I have something to show you!"

After speaking, Cui Anni, wrapped in a bedsheet, led Ye Feng out of the room!

Cui Anni's bedroom was on the second floor of the villa, and after they left the bedroom, they headed towards the third floor!

Upon reaching the loft above the third floor, the two of them stepped inside!

This attic turned out to be a storeroom, filled with various styles of old furniture and books, and under Ye Feng's puzzled gaze, Cui Anni pulled out a framed painting from behind a row of worn books!

The painting was of an antique style, even the wooden frame was almost rotting, with its paint peeling off, clearly having endured many years of history!

Depicted in the painting was a Western young man in antique clothing, looking somewhat destitute. He was dressed in a blue work suit, a wreath of fresh flowers adorning his head, smoking a pipe in his hand, his eyes somewhat vacant and desolate, much like the poorest of poor!

However, when Ye Feng laid eyes on the painting, sparks of fascination splashed in his eyes!

"Ye Feng, do you recognize this painting?" Cui Anni observed the painting carefully, treating it like it was a priceless treasure, filled with excitement!

Ye Feng nodded, walked up to the painting, and studied it closely before saying,

"This is a work by Mr. Picasso, the founder of modern art and a representative of Western modern painting schools! 'The Boy with a Pipe'!"

As Ye Feng admired the painting, he continued,

"As far as I know, this painting was auctioned off decades ago for an astronomical price of 150 million US dollars! It was called the most precious painting in the world! And now, decades later, its value is probably worth several billion US dollars!"

Ye Feng was extremely surprised. He had heard Xu Ziqian talk about this masterpiece of Picasso countless times before, but it was his first time seeing the genuine article!

And several billion US dollars, which is equivalent to tens of billions of Huaxia coins; no wonder that Allen came to steal it in the middle of the night!

"Annie, I heard that this painting was bought by a wealthy Jewish businessman for a high price decades ago. How did it end up in your hands? And who was that man just now? Does he have a large force behind him?"

At this moment, Ye Feng looked at Cui Anni, voicing all his confusion!

Hearing Ye Feng's questions, Cui Anni immediately smoothed her jet-black hair and then said,

"Years ago, when my grandfather was studying in Europe, he met a Western man who was being pursued by assassins. Before dying, the man gave this painting to my grandfather! Initially, my grandfather thought it was just a counterfeit and didn't pay much attention to it, storing it for decades at home! But not long ago, a master watercolor painter visited my grandfather's home and recognized it at once, then my grandfather realized the value of this painting!"

Cui Anni finished speaking, her face displaying a hint of surprise and a deep sense of fear:

"However, the news of this painting was also leaked by that watercolor painter, and many wealthy businessmen approached my grandfather wanting to buy 'The Boy with a Pipe'! Among them was Xu Feiyang, the boss of the Triad among Hong Kong underground forces!"
