"Baby, why don’t you come with us?" Loo Jie was afraid that once they left, Situ Xin would still insist on joining the others for fun, which could escalate the situation.

"Okay, I’ll go with you," Situ Xin knew Loo Jie’s concerns, and she currently had no desire to join the others for enjoyment. Moreover, she inexplicably felt uneasy about Situ Che and Loo Jie going on a mission this time, and decided to give them a newly developed External Injury Powder and a life-saving elixir she had in her Storage Ring.

After Situ Xin left with Situ Che and others, all the young masters in the private room heaved a huge sigh of relief. Situ Che and Loo Jie were also thankful for the timing of this mission. As they walked away, they thought that it would be best to attend fewer gatherings like this in the future. If they encountered the Situ Family’s and Loo Family’s little princess again and she insisted on joining them for fun, they might not be as lucky as they were today.

"Good heavens, the princess has finally left."

"Yeah, if she had stayed any longer, she would have driven me insane." The fat man and the skinny man both leaned back in their chairs, relaxing as they spoke. "Junxi, if you see that little princess again, keep your distance from her, especially during our get-togethers. We can’t afford to bring her along." A refined man with glasses said, "You’ve been abroad for so many years; you might not know. This little princess from the Situ and Loo Families is not someone to be trifled with. My old man has repeatedly warned us, saying that even if we offend anyone from the Situ or Loo Families, we must never mess with their little princess, Situ Xin. If we see her, we should do our best to ingratiate ourselves with her."

"Wen Han, why is that?" Lan Junxi could understand why everyone gave way to Situ Xin—after all, the little princess had such powerful backing and was so favored. However, he couldn’t grasp why Wen Han’s grandfather would say such things.

"My old man has told us the same thing," the fat man said, standing up.

"Yeah, my old man has too, and he said it right after the Qian Family fell. He gathered us all in the study to inform us," the skinny man added, tapping the table with his hand. "As for why that is, Junxi, you should go home and ask your old man. He is aware of it. It’s inappropriate for us to discuss it further here." The skinny man remembered the wary expression on his own grandfather’s face when he spoke about the identities of Situ Xin and the connection of the Situ and Loo Families to The Dark Division, as well as his solemn warnings. The skinny man chose to seal his lips.

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly turned somber. Lan Junxi speculated about what made Situ Xin so formidable in these old men’s eyes. The fat man and skinny man were recalling the expressions and tones their old men had used when they had spoken about her.

The female companions were pondering what kind of entity Situ Xin really was, considering whether they should discreetly inquire about her among their social circle.

Fu Xiaoyi’s expression was the most complex, reflecting on her previous behavior in front of Situ Xin and what she had said, leaving her unsure of her feelings at that moment.

Situ Xin was unaware that once she left, the private room erupted into a brief discussion about her. Meanwhile, she stood beside Situ Che and Loo Jie’s car, taking out four small bottles from her bag and handing them to Situ Che and Loo Jie. "Brother Che, Brother Jie, keep these two items safe, and remember, always carry them with you." Situ Xin spoke, then remembered they both had Storage Rings and felt she might have spoken too much. "This blue bottle contains External Injury Powder; even for a badly bleeding wound, just a little bit of this powder will stop the blood. And this elixir, no matter how severe the injury, if you take it, your life can hang by a thread long enough for me to save you."

"We will remember," Situ Che and Loo Jie solemnly placed the two bottles in their pockets and into their Storage Rings. They had no doubt about the effectiveness of the elixirs and powders given by Situ Xin. The elixirs and powders she provided had saved many lives on their team. Even their team leader had a narrow escape thanks to the elixir Situ Xin had stored with Situ Che and Loo Jie.

Initially, Situ Che and Loo Jie thought that after their mission, when they took out the elixirs and powders, their team leader or teammates would ask where they came from. Their special forces operations were almost always life-threatening, and these remarkably effective elixirs and powders were like an additional safety guarantee. But no one asked anything; it was as if the issue never existed.

Situ Xin found out about this only later. After learning about it, she remained silent for a long time and expressed no opinion. However, from then on, every time Situ Che and Loo Jie returned from the team or were about to leave, Situ Xin would give them some elixirs and powders. Of course, these weren’t as miraculous as those given directly to Situ Che and Loo Jie, but even so, these elixirs could save lives under certain circumstances.

"Remember, safety first. Always prioritize your own safety," Situ Xin said, suddenly recalling that she had something else to give Situ Che and Loo Jie. "Here, take this. If you confront any danger or something you can’t resolve, launch this into the sky. You know what to do." Situ Xin pointed to the emblem on the two signaling devices as she spoke.

"We got it; we’re not new to missions. Understood," Loo Jie said, patting Situ Xin on the head with a touch of emotion.
