Honeysuckle paused for a moment, then noticed that Suri had activated his scanning vision: "Someone's coming, armed, not from the Venetian family, and seems to be planning to cause a ruckus here."

Then, Suri showed the two girls she had spotted in her scanned field of vision: one with dark blue hair and the other with pure white hair except for the black downy hair around her ears.

"Is this Lappland from the Saluzzo family? And the one next to her, is he a descendant from the Texas family?"

Honeysuckle paused, clearly not expecting these two to be the ones here: 'I remember your intelligence indicated that the Saluzzo family wasn't the one targeting us.'

"That's not true. My intelligence can't be wrong. But it's probably because the Saluzzo family thinks there's an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and want to strike at the Venetian family and expand their own power."

Su Rui said it casually, and then marked the locations of the two people:

"They came in from different positions. Which one do you want to deal with first?"

'Give me the Saluzzo family one, and turn on the alarm in the family compound.'

"I see."

As soon as Suri finished speaking, the intrusion alarm went off.

In the scanned view provided by Su Rui, both Texas and Lappland showed expressions of surprise, and then quickly took action again.

Suri couldn't help but laugh in Ren Dong's mind: "You saw their surprised looks, didn't you? They probably thought their partner had given something away!"

'Alright, be serious. We can chat after I've dealt with them.'

"Why not just kill them?"

Su Rui was taken aback: "Are you going to let them go?"

'These two individuals are quite important to their respective families. Unless the Venetian family has a significant grudge against them, it's best not to kill them.'

Honeysuckle seemed worried that such a reason would not be enough to convince Su Rui, so she added a condition:

'However, I can do as you suggest and thoroughly defeat them, as a provocation and retaliation against the Saluzzo family.'

"That's good. With me here, you're invincible! The strong are meant to humiliate the weak!"

Suri was immediately delighted and then marked the shortest route to Lappland, which even went through several rooms and required breaking a few windows.

"Hurry up, or what if the other one gets caught by someone else?"

"Trust in her abilities. I think the fact that only two people were involved speaks volumes about their skill."

Honeysuckle rushed forward, smashing through a window and standing before the white-haired wolf girl, shards of glass still looming over her.

“Lappland? I remember the Venetian family hasn’t had any recent conflicts with Saluzzo.”

Honeysuckle pointed her weapon at Lappland, wanting to exchange a few more words before the fight began.

Fortunately, Lappland was even more anxious than Suri, and answered her question as she rushed towards Honeysuckle:

"Of course, it's the old man in the family who's thinking of taking advantage of you. Although I don't like him, I also think it's a good idea."

However, Lapland's attack was easily thwarted by Honeysuckle.

Although Suri's words were somewhat exaggerated, he did indeed possess formidable strength. In Ren Dong's eyes, every move Lappland made was predicted in advance, including her mood and even her breathing, which Suri could grasp and analyze.

Honeysuckle had already detected and figured out how to deal with each of Lappland's actions before Lappland even made a move.

Therefore, honeysuckle is indeed invincible unless the opponent is excessively overweight.

A smile involuntarily crept onto her lips as Honeysuckle began to respond to Lappland's attacks, forcing her into a retreat. Each attack seemed poised to take her life, but each one came to an abrupt end, merely grazing her neck or just past her eyes.

Lappland clearly realized that these unexpected events were not due to Honeysuckle's mistake, and somewhat annoyed, she took a few steps back, swinging her sword to force Honeysuckle back:

"Are you humiliating me? You could have easily taken my life, but every time you just scare me?"

Honeysuckle raised her chin and, following Suri's suggestion, arrogantly said:

"You are no match for me. Once you realize that, you should slink away."

Lappland paused, as if she hadn't expected Honeysuckle to say that, and gritted her teeth:

"I'll remember that, Ingrid. You'll get what's coming to you later."

"Does she know you?"

Seeing Lappland's disheveled escape, Suri asked with some confusion.

"Of course, we were both important figures in our respective families. Although we couldn't be friends due to our positions, we were still quite familiar with each other as rivals... She should have been able to see that my arrogance just now was out of character."

"What's there to be afraid of? Anyway, she can't drag me out and beat me up."

Suri didn't care at all about having provoked Lappland: "Besides, she might not even have guessed I was there. Maybe she just thinks you're in a bad mood today?"

Honeysuckle's lips curled into a smile. She brandished her weapon and urged, "Let's go find our next target."

"Okay, that Texas is now... Lappland has met up with her."

'It's okay, I can still handle both of them.'

"What I mean is, it looks like they're planning to slip away. Hurry up, or we won't be able to beat them up."

Okay, I understand.

I thought Su Rui was worried about Ren Dong's safety and was feeling helpless, but it turns out she was worried that Ren Dong wouldn't be able to keep up and beat them up?

Fortunately, with Suri planning the route, Honeysuckle, who was more familiar with the Venetian family's terrain than Texas and the others, managed to stop Lappland and Texas.

He then defiantly raised his chin at them, saying, "Come at me all at once."

Volume 1: Chapter 26 Something's Wrong with You

"This isn't like you, Ingrid. You're being a bit too arrogant today."

Lappland was somewhat puzzled, but she still launched an attack on Honeysuckle together with Texas beside her.

Texas, however, simply pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Why is Texas so quiet, like a mute?"

'Show her some respect. I know Texas, after all.'

"I've been calling her by her full name, okay? I haven't given her a nickname. At worst, I won't call her 'Silent Gourd'."

Su Rui said casually, then reminded Ren Dong, raised his hand and swung it out, then made a 35-degree roundhouse kick to the left and back.

Honeysuckle reacted quickly, parrying Lappland's blade while kicking Texas, who was trying to sneak up on her, away, causing her to stumble and almost fall.

Texas looked at Honeysuckle with some surprise, holding her weapon, as if she hadn't expected her to react so quickly.

Suri recorded her surprised expression and added a voiceover when playing it back:

"Good heavens, that flying kick almost tore the seams of my clothes!"

"Pfft~"

Honeysuckle couldn't help but laugh. Noticing the surprised looks from Lappland and Texas, she couldn't help but mentally scold Suri, feeling a little ashamed: 'Alright, Suri, be serious, we're fighting now!'

“I know, but it seems like the two of them aren’t planning to fight.”

Suri glanced at Lappland and Texas, who had already retreated together, and offered a suggestion:

“They seem to be trying to climb over the wall. I have a way to make you kick them in the face as they climb over the wall and send them flying.”

"No, that would be too impolite."

"The Mafia is too polite."

Suri couldn't help but complain, and then added another sentence to Ren Dong's vision: "Then let's leave them one last sentence."

Honeysuckle glanced at the sentence Su Rui had written, her lips twitching slightly, but she still spoke to Texas and Lappland, who had retreated to the wall:

"I'll be waiting for you right here, you two small fry. If you're not happy, come find me again, and I'll beat you to a pulp!"

"...Are you really Ingrid?"

Even Texas couldn't help but speak up, looking at Honeysuckle with surprise.

"Of course I am."

Despite feeling ashamed inside, Honeysuckle nodded with an outwardly composed demeanor.

"Alright, time to play around is over. You should leave now."

"I knew Ingrid was acting a bit strange today, didn't I?"

Lappland nodded to Texas, then glanced at Honeysuckle:

"That was what the Honeysuckle Society said just now."

Afterwards, Lappland and Texas climbed over the wall and left the Venetian family's courtyard, leaving Honeysuckle alone with her cheeks flushed, her back to the family members who were rushing to her, not wanting to turn her head to look at them.

"My suggestion is to just say that you were too tired from exercising too much."

'…' Honeysuckle didn't speak, but turned her head and nodded to the driver who came to her side: 'They've already left.'

"Yes, I'll take care of the rest."

The female driver glanced at her boss, who was blushing for some reason, and nodded.

Although the driver found Ren Dong's expression a bit strange, she had gotten used to her boss's occasional odd behavior.

It's impossible that someone was telling jokes in Miss Honeysuckle's ear during a fight, right?

The driver shook her head, dismissing her absurd thoughts, and began to arrange the cleanup.

As Ren Dong achieved more and more, more and more people in the family trusted her. As a result, the driver under Ren Dong's command gained more and more prestige, and it became easy for her to assign tasks to others.

When Su Rui went back to rest after Ren Dong, she suddenly noticed something and then posted a communication message:

"You know Lappland? I mean, you actually have her contact information?"

'After all, we might occasionally collaborate, although most of the time we keep to ourselves. But I do have, and do have, Texas's contact information.'

Lappland's message was simple: "You're acting a bit strange today, Ingrid. Is something wrong?"

"She still cares about you."

'Lappland probably thinks there might be something interesting going on here, but she might actually want to help me.'

Texas also sent a message: "Are you in trouble?"

"Are they all good people? Why are they all trying to help you? Am I some kind of bad person?"

"Of course you're not bad." At least not to the people around me right now. Honeysuckle couldn't help but think of all of Suri's antics—wanting to monitor the whole world, wanting to see rivers of blood... What good person would have such a hobby?

"Of course, I'm a very kind and good person. I'll want to help anyone who's hungry."

Su Rui affirmed Ren Dong's words, and couldn't help but nod in her mind.

Honeysuckle's lips twitched slightly as she took out her phone from her pocket to reply.

Honeysuckle: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, I've just been a little emotional lately."

Then Honeysuckle discovered that she, Lappland, and Texas had been added to a group chat.

But she remembers that they were communicating via text message.

Looking at his phone with a puzzled expression, he realized that although it was supposed to be a one-on-one text message, Su Rui had created a group chat, and he even had an identity in the group: Honeysuckle's Back Spirit.

Lappland immediately realized Suri's presence: "Honeysuckle's backing spirit? Is that why you said those things today?"

Honeysuckle's spirit: "Yes, actually, those were things I wanted to tell you, you nobodies~"

Texas: "...No wonder."

Honeysuckle's spirit: "Hello, another nobody~"

Texas: "..."

'Alright, Suri, stop teasing them.'

A sense of crisis inexplicably rose in Ren Dong's heart, not because she was worried that Su Rui would be discovered, but because she realized that Su Rui could use this method to contact others.

Although she knew she shouldn't have such thoughts, after spending time together, Ren Dong had developed a possessive desire for Su Rui.

Sometimes, the inertia of thought is a terrible thing.

Honeysuckle had subconsciously come to regard Su Rui as an individual belonging solely to her, a treasure that only she could access.

So when Ren Dong saw Suri, Texas, and Lappland talking, she felt a pang of sadness and a sense of crisis.

In the group chat on the phone, Lappland was still trying to get information out of him: "Oh~ so you're really good? If you're so capable, why don't you meet me!"
