After eliminating Youyan, Fangfeng Yiying set about reorganizing the various casino-centric businesses. Xiaoyao could not help but sigh in silent admiration once again: Fangfeng Bei's convenient foster sister was truly remarkably capable. With a sharp, pragmatic business mind and the seasoned, versatile methods born of decades of training within the Tushan Clan, she carried out her duties with a hard-boiled efficiency while remaining exceptionally low-profile and cautious.
To mention just one detail: every time Xiaoyao returned from Yushan, she would bring back a few items belonging to Tian'er—such as clothes he had worn, paintings he had drawn, books he had read, or characters he had brushed. Holding them in her hands, Yiying would turn them over and over, quite unable to put them down. Yet, at most within a single night, she would wave her hand and have everything burned cleanly to ash, leaving not a trace of evidence behind in public view. Even Xiaoyao could not help but respect her inwardly.
Furthermore, following Xiaoyao's original conception, Fangfeng Yiying had trained a troop of exceptionally skilled archers. Aside from a detachment handed over to Xiangliu to serve in the military, the rest were deployed throughout Sifang City to handle routine duties such as patrols and garrison defense. Thus, people could frequently catch a glimpse of a dashing, spirited flash of red at the shooting range.
