It was now just ten minutes to twelve.
Jiang Xinghai lit a cigarette and called Yan Qingshan.
"Master, you're back?" Yan Qingshan answered immediately.
"I'll be at AM Company in five minutes. Is everything ready?" Jiang Xinghai asked coolly.
"Rest assured, Master. I'm with three Elders from the Martial Arts Department, hidden near AM Company and awaiting your orders," Yan Qingshan replied.
"Just protect Shen Lingxue and the others from the shadows. You don't need to make an appearance," Jiang Xinghai ordered.
Yan Qingshan hesitated. "Master, with us here, how could we trouble you to act personally?"
"I'm putting on a show for those martial arts families."
Jiang Xinghai said grimly, "You are not to intervene. No one is to reveal their position. Remember, you're still part of the Martial Arts Department. Officially, you have nothing to do with me."
"I understand," Yan Qingshan affirmed with a heavy nod.
