The three of them walked in silence.
This soundless scene was more eloquent than one filled with noise.
The atmosphere was warm and pleasant, lifting the spirits.
Luo Yang's feelings were complex, thinking how wonderful it would be if the world were free of strife and everyone were kind to each other.
Yet, the world was filled with strife, and where there were people, there was the Jianghu.
With Jianghu came feuds and grudges.
The feud with the Lin Family was a deadlock with no possibility of resolution.
What Luo Yang worried about most was the possibility of his family and friends facing the Lin Family's retaliation, and he didn't know how to ensure their safety.
The best way was to uproot the Lin Family entirely.
But the Lin Family couldn't be eliminated in a single day.
Having dealt with the weakest of the Lin Family's five henchmen tonight, and given the Lin Family's consistent approach of repaying blood with blood, there would likely be a significant move soon.
As for how the Lin Family would seek revenge, that was still unclear.
Without realizing it, they had already walked a few hundred meters.
Luo Yang had no wish to let An Yuying know about the evening's events; he planned to wait until after she had taken her medicinal bath, which would give him the chance to speak with Sister Guihua alone.
So, the three of them headed back to Qin Piao's home again.
This back-and-forth continued several times, walking quietly each time, without speaking.
Finally, on the way back, Luo Yang said with a smile, "Sister An, Sister Guihua, why aren't you talking?"
Sister Guihua answered softly, "What's there to say?"
An Yuying also said in a delicate voice, "It's not after dinner, so why go for a walk now?"
They didn't know that Luo Yang had something very important to tell them.
Especially Sister Guihua, who, along with her brother, would be in serious danger until Luo Yang had dealt with the Lin Family.
Lin Guofa had wanted to toy with Guihua but failed and was furious with embarrassment.
Afterward, with a deeper grudge against Luo Yang and unable to take revenge on him, Lin Guofa would likely not hesitate to take the opportunity to retaliate against the siblings if given the chance.
Therefore, Luo Yang felt that it would be better to discuss matters with Sister Guihua.
Yuying was relatively safe as long as she avoided riding frequently in Sister Guihua's car.
The Lin Family usually would not target Yuying.
Should anything untoward happen to either of the village beauties, Luo Yang would be greatly distressed.
Upon returning to Qin Piao's home, the traditional Chinese medicine had been prepared.
"Sister An, you go soak first," suggested Luo Yang.
"Then I'll take my soak first. Cowboy, help me pour the water into the bathtub," An Yuying said.
The prepared traditional Chinese medicine was enough for only one person's soak.
After pouring the medicinal broth into the bathtub, Luo Yang handed the aluminum pot back to Qin Piao to continue preparing more traditional Chinese medicine.
Once the bath was ready, Luo Yang said, "Sister An, it's all set, you can come in now."
Only when An Yuying was soaking in the medicinal bath could Luo Yang have a private talk with Sister Guihua.
In fact, he still had to call Sister Guihua out of the house.
"Sister Guihua, why don't you teach me how to drive? Let's go around the village," Luo Yang suggested.
"Alright then. I'll teach you for free," Sister Guihua responded.
She, too, wanted to be alone with Luo Yang, to chat with him.
Somewhere inside, she felt Luo Yang had something important to tell her.
The car was just outside, and the two of them got in, with Sister Guihua at the wheel.
"Sister Guihua, I have something I want to tell you," Luo Yang said.
"I know what you're going to say," replied Sister Guihua indifferently.
Earlier, inside the house, Luo Yang had realized that Sister Guihua had misunderstood his intentions.
"Sister Guihua, please stop the car first," Luo Yang requested.
He was concerned that Sister Guihua might be startled by the night's events and accidentally drive into a field.
Sister Guihua laughed coldly, "Just say what you have to say."
However, she still pulled the car over to a wider space at the side of the road.
The surroundings were filled with the chirping of insects, exceptionally serene.
Looking each other in the eyes, Luo Yang could see her expression was rather cold, as if she had mentally braced herself for whatever was to come.
"Sister Guihua, about what I have to say, you might well..." Luo Yang said, gazing at her intensely.
