Late one night, He Daqing was patrolling the central courtyard of the Siheyuan when he suddenly received an emergency call. A hurried voice came from the other end of the phone, "He Daqing, we found some suspicious people who are conducting secret activities around the Siheyuan."

He Daqing's heart tightened, "Can you confirm their identities?"

"We can't be sure yet, but their behavior is very suspicious and we are monitoring them closely." There was a hint of anxiety in the voice on the other end of the phone.

He Daqing hung up the phone and immediately called Yang Shumao and Shi Xiaona, "We must take action immediately. Someone is carrying out secret activities around the courtyard."

Yang Shumao and Shi Xiaona responded quickly and led a team to the scene. They approached the suspicious people cautiously and found that they were conducting illegal surveys.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Yang Shumao asked coldly.

Those people seemed a little panicked, but they quickly calmed down and claimed that they were surveyors doing their work legally.

"Routine check? Late at night?" Shi Xiaona asked back bluntly.

Those people looked a little embarrassed, but still said, "Yes, this is our job."

He Daqing knew that there was something wrong with these people, but in order to avoid making things worse, he decided to keep silent for the time being. "Okay, you can continue to work, but remember, this is the territory of Siheyuan, and no illegal activities are allowed."

Those people nodded, quickly packed up their tools and left the scene. He Daqing, Yang Shumao and Shi Xiaona looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts and uneasiness.

After returning to the courtyard, He Daqing, Yang Shumao and Shi Xiaona held an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with the subsequent situation.

"We must strengthen our defense and not let them take advantage of any opportunity." He Daqing said firmly.

Yang Shumao nodded in agreement, "Yes, we still need to collect further intelligence to understand Black Fox's specific action plan."

Shi Xiaona also expressed her support, "We must mobilize all our forces to ensure the safety of the courtyard."

Soon, the entire courtyard became like a solid fortress, with everyone at their post, ready to deal with any possible threats at any time.

At the same time, Yang Shumao continued to implement his plan, gradually mastering Shi Xiaojun's resources and secretly weakening his power. Although Shi Xiaojun was aware of it, he did not fully realize Yang Shumao's true intentions.

One night, Shi Xiaojun came to Yang Shumao's office, looking a little anxious. "Yang Shumao, our recent project is progressing a little slowly. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Yang Shumao smiled and said, "Shi Xiaojun, we need closer cooperation to advance the project faster. I suggest that we increase investment and strive to complete the second phase of development as soon as possible."

Shi Xiaojun nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I hope we can make a breakthrough as soon as possible."

Yang Shumao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Shi Xiaojun's trust was the key to realizing the plan. As long as he could maintain this cooperative relationship, he would be able to smoothly control the entire project.

A few days later, Yang Shumao, He Daqing and Shi Xiaona received an important message. According to their intelligence, Black Fox was preparing for a large-scale operation to try to control several important areas of the city.

"We must take immediate action to stop their plans." He Daqing said in a deep voice, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Yang Shumao nodded in agreement, "Yes, we need to unite all our forces to destroy the Black Fox's conspiracy in one fell swoop."

Soon, He Daqing, Yang Shumao and Shi Xiaona formulated a detailed action plan and mobilized all the forces of the Siheyuan, as well as their allies, to prepare for the coming war.

As night fell, the operation officially began. He Daqing led an elite team to sneak into a secret base of the Black Fox quietly. Yang Shumao and Shi Xiaona were responsible for coordinating the actions of other teams to ensure that every step was correct.

After a fierce battle, He Daqing and others successfully controlled the stronghold and captured the important contact of Black Fox. Through the interrogation of these people, they obtained more intelligence about Black Fox.

"We did it. The Black Fox's forces have been severely damaged." He Daqing said with emotion after the battle, with a gleam of victory in his eyes.

Yang Shumao nodded in agreement, "Yes, but we can't take it lightly, the Black Fox won't give up easily."

Shi Xiaona clenched her fists, her eyes flashing

Shi's mother felt that Shi Xiaona and Yang Shumao were not suitable for each other.

Shi's mother felt that Shi Xiaona and Yang Shumao were not suitable for each other. This news reached Shi Xiaona's ears and made her feel very troubled. At a dinner at home, the atmosphere seemed a little heavy, and Shi's mother couldn't help but speak.

"Xiao Na, I don't think you and Yang Shumao are a good match." There was a hint of worry in Shi's mother's tone.

Shi Xiaona was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Shi's mother would suddenly bring up such a topic. "Mom, why do you say that?"

Mother Shi sighed, "I think their family background is different from ours. Although your father is not a wealthy man, he is also a decent man. I don't want you to have any bad experiences in the future."

Shi Xiaona frowned, "Mom, you misunderstood. Shumao is a good man, he is not what you think."

Mrs. Shi shook her head. "I didn't misunderstand you. I'm just worried about your future. After your father passed away, I always treated you as my dearest child. I don't want to see you get hurt."

Shi Xiaona felt heartbroken. She didn't expect her mother to be so worried about this issue. "Mom, don't worry. I will be responsible for my future."

Seeing Shi Xiaona's resolute expression, Shi's mother felt a little relieved, but she still couldn't let it go. "I know you are a sensible child, but I still hope you can think twice before you act."

Shi Xiaona sighed softly. She knew that her mother was speaking out of love and concern for her. "Mom, I'll consider what you said."

After dinner, Shi Xiaona walked into her room alone, her heart full of contradictions and confusion. She knew that Shi's mother was doing this for her own good, but she also knew that the feelings between her and Yang Shumao were sincere. She didn't know how to make a choice so as not to disappoint Shi's mother's expectations and hurt her own feelings.

The next day, Shi Xiaona decided to talk to Yang Shumao about the matter. She knew that only through communication could she find a solution to the problem.

On a sunny afternoon, Shi Xiaona found Yang Shumao, "Shumao, I want to talk to you."
