Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

Deep in the capital, in the military compound that has been carved by time to be simple and solemn, the sunlight shines through the sparse clouds and dapples on the bluestone road.

In the courtyard, under an old locust tree, Mr. Fu sat leisurely on a rattan chair, his back against the tree trunk, his eyes slightly closed, as if isolated from the world. Only the half-finished chess game on the table silently told the changing situation on the battlefield.

On the chessboard, the black pieces are like wolves and tigers, pressing forward step by step, while the white pieces remain unchanged in the face of change, and the power of counterattack is contained in the calmness. This is not just a chess game, but more like the old man's insight and layout of the world.

After a long time, the old man slowly opened his eyes, and wisdom flashed in his eyes that had experienced countless hardships. He gently picked up a white piece and placed it accurately in a corner of the chessboard, instantly reversing the seemingly unfavorable situation.

"Oh, wonderful." The old man chuckled with satisfaction, and turned his eyes to the adjutant Fu Chen who had been standing aside for more than half an hour, with a hint of ridicule in his tone, "What's wrong? Haven't you seen enough of this game of chess?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Chen quickly bowed and saluted, unable to hide his joy on his face: "Reporting to the old man, half an hour ago, Miss Ji successfully gave birth to two young masters and a young lady, and both mother and child are safe. Doctor Huo Xuan is conducting a DNA test, but according to reliable information, apart from the admiral and Master Helian, no other men were involved in this matter."

"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed across Mr. Fu's eyes, and then he regained his composure. "That brat was really quick to report to me as soon as he got the news."

The corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile, but a complicated light flashed in his eyes, "It seems that the other families have failed this time."

"Yes, old man. Other families have just learned the news and are talking about it." Fu Chen replied in a low voice, his eyes full of awe for the old man.

Mr. Fu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, as if he could penetrate the high walls and see the undercurrents behind the major forces in the capital. "Humph, this pair of twins has become the key to this silent contest. I'm afraid the three families didn't even expect a half chance."

After saying this, a hint of barely perceptible pride and joy appeared on his face. "That's fine. Let those old stubborn people be anxious for a few more years. I feel very happy about this."

After that, Mr. Fu looked down at the chessboard again, as if the previous conversation had not disrupted his thoughts on playing chess. He gently stroked the white pieces in his hand, as if every movement contained deep meaning, which was not only a careful consideration of the chess game, but also a far-reaching layout for the family's future.

“Fu Chen, you go and make the arrangements. When the baby is one month old, you must hold a grand celebration so that everyone in the capital knows that our Fu family has successors, and they are twins.” The old man’s voice was low and powerful, and every word revealed his unquestionable majesty.

Fu Chen withdrew in response, but he was already secretly thinking about how to prepare for this grand full moon banquet so that the glory of the Fu family would shine in the capital again.

……

On the other side of the hospital, in a ward at the end of the corridor, soft light shines on the white sheets, creating a peaceful and warm atmosphere.

Lu Nanxu stood at the door of the ward, his eyes passed through the end of the corridor, and finally fell on Zheng Haoqian who was standing by the door. He asked softly: "How is Yanyan's condition?"

Zheng Haoqian smiled slightly, with a gentle arc on his lips: "She just fell asleep. She is indeed a little exhausted after giving birth. In the next period of time, she needs to rest well and prepare for the days of confinement. Ah Yan and Min Xiao must be eager to run to the nursery to see their baby."

At this point, Zheng Haoqian's tone was filled with a subtle confusion, "But I find it a little strange. I can feel the blood connection between that little girl and Min Xiao at a glance, but Min Xiao doesn't seem to have that strong blood connection with the other child."

Xin Mujing frowned slightly when he heard this. He walked over to the two of them, his eyes filled with deep thought and confusion. "Indeed, the reason behind this is puzzling. According to common sense, there should be an indescribable tacit understanding and connection between blood relatives."

Just as the three of them were immersed in their own thoughts, the door of the ward was gently pushed open, and Fu Jingyan walked in with a smile on his face. He held the phone tightly in his hand, and looked down from time to time. Flashing on the screen were photos of newborn babies.

Some of the little babies in the photos have their eyes closed, immersed in dreams; others have their eyes wide open with curiosity, with their thumbs in their mouths. Their innocent look makes people want to hug them and give them the most gentle care.

Fu Jingyan excitedly slid the screen of his mobile phone, showing each precious photo to the three people one by one, and quickly clicked send to share this joy with the elders at home.

His face was filled with a smile of happiness and satisfaction, as if the whole world had become extraordinarily beautiful with the arrival of these two little lives.

Looking at Fu Jingyan's smug look, Lu Nanxu couldn't help but adjust the frame of his glasses, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Looking at your smug look, it's really enviable."

Then, the topic turned to business. Lu Nanxu asked seriously, "How is the investigation going? What did the manager say about the wine that night?"

Xin Mujing put away his smile, his eyes became cold and deep: "The manager confirmed that no one was sent to deliver wine to us that night. He has arranged for someone to find the bartender who delivered wine to us, and he should be here soon."

At this point, a hint of coldness flashed in his dark eyes, "I want to see who is behind this."

The atmosphere in the ward became solemn because of this topic, but everyone's heart was filled with a desire for the truth and a persistence in justice.

At the edge of the hospital, the night was as dark as ink. A few faint street lights barely penetrated the mist and shone on the apartment building that had been caressed by time.

Not long after, Lu Yi's figure hurried through the night, followed by a nervous-looking bartender. His steps were slightly staggering, as if every step was carrying a heavy burden.

Inside the apartment, the lights were soft but carried a certain seriousness that could not be ignored. Xin Mujing, Lu Nanxu and the other five people sat in the middle of the living room, their eyes fixed on the bartender who had just been brought in.

There was a depressing atmosphere in the air, which was in stark contrast to the occasional whispers of the night breeze outside the window.

"Tell me, what happened that night?" Lu Nanxu's voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a hammer, hitting the bartender's fragile psychological defenses.
