Chapter 269: You’re Just An Ant In Front Of Me"Starry Sky Hotel Investigation Team at work."

"Don't move."

"Any resistance will be met with lethal force."

Eleven martial artists, clad in the special deep-blue combat suits of the Star Council, stormed in, their energy rifles aimed squarely at Li Xiaofei.

They were led by Zhen Jiahui, the captain of the investigation team. His cultivation had reached the fourth stage of the Meridian Expanding Realm. He was one of Inspector Wu Fohai’s trusted confidants and had been brought from the northwest district.

Li Xiaofei calmly rose to his feet.

"What is the meaning of this?" He asked, his gaze sweeping over the intruders.

Zhen Jiahui’s sharp eyes scanned the training room,

Zhen Jiahui’s face twisted in rage, his eyes burning with malice as he glared at Li Xiaofei for a moment.

"We'll see about that, kid." Zhen Jiahui turned to leave with a cold snort, shouting orders as he went, "Download and take all the surveillance footage back with us!"

Li Xiaofei added casually, "Take care... Oh, and I'll be sending the repair bill for the training room door to your office."

Zhen Jiahui paused, turning to sneer. "Remember this, kid. I’ll be watching you closely, no matter what. Pray I never catch you slipping."

Li Xiaofei said nothing more, watching Zhen Jiahui leave with a cold smile.

You should be the one praying.

Anyone who dared to catch him slipping would meet a grim fate. People like Zhen Jiahui, who relied on the power of the Star Council, truly believed that wearing its combat suit made them untouchable.

Too naive.

As the Star Council members left, Li Xiaofei also left his training room. He returned to the Guang'an neighborhood and joined Little Aunt, Li Jie, and Zhong Ling for dinner.

Recently, Zhong Ling had stopped staying at her school dormitory, opting instead to commute daily from the slums. She spent the nights at the Li household and was driven to school each morning, escorted by warriors from the Cloudy Sky Gang. Li Xiaofei had grown used to this arrangement.

During dinner, Zhong Ling and Li Jie chatted enthusiastically, filling the room with their lively conversation. Even the usually reserved Little Aunt joined in, smiling as she contributed to the discussion.

After dinner, Li Jie and Zhong Ling went off to wash the dishes. Li Xiaofei and his aunt had just entered the bedroom, ready to enjoy some quiet time together, when the urgent ringing of his light core interrupted them.

There were only a handful of people who could bypass the signal-blocking and reach him at this hour. Lying on the bed with Little Aunt on his back, Li Xiaofei pulled out the light core. It was Uncle Tan calling.

Sigh, future father-in-law—this one has to be answered.

"Hello, Uncle Tan."

"Was it you?"

"Uncle Tan, what are you referring to?"

"Don't play dumb—you know exactly what I'm asking."

"Uh..."

"You've got some guts, kid."

"Uncle Tan, I—"

"Enough, I already know. From here on out, don't do anything. Leave everything to me to clean up. Got it?"

"Understood."

"Reckless, aren't you?"

"Uncle Tan, why does your voice sound like that...?"

"Of course I'm angry! You went ahead without consulting me! What? Can’t handle a bit of scolding?"

"No, it's just... I can clearly hear you laughing."

"That's impossible. You must be hearing things. I'm hanging up."

The call abruptly ended.

Heh, clearly excited but still trying to act like a stern parent.

Li Xiaofei couldn't help but feel a bit of warmth in his heart. Since his future father-in-law was handling the aftermath, he no longer had anything to worry about.

As he lay on the bed and enjoyed Little Aunt's massage, he opened the light core forum. Sure enough, the light-network was already ablaze with public outrage and speculation.
