What does Chapter 1151 mean?

"Then what should we do?" Li Xiangqian asked anxiously.

Yi Zhonghai sat down slowly, his eyes becoming calm again. "The most important thing now is to stay calm, move forward, and don't be impatient. If it is really as I guessed, everything that follows may become more complicated, even dangerous."

Li Xiangqian looked at Yi Zhonghai, and at that moment, his mood was extremely complicated. In the past, they were friends who fought side by side, but today, they had to be cautious for each other's safety. The undercurrents that Yi Zhonghai mentioned seemed to be no longer under his control. How many unknown black-box operations were hidden in this land where they were, and how many hidden forces had already begun to quietly weave an invisible network behind the scenes?

Countless possible scenarios flashed through Li Xiangqian's mind, and each one made him uneasy. But he knew that he had to make a choice, to decide whether to stand on Yi Zhonghai's side, or...

His thoughts were interrupted by a hasty knock on the door. Li Xiangqian turned around, his face instantly solemn, his intuition telling him that at this moment, the situation had become even more confusing.

Li Xiangqian stood at the door, his fingers tightly grasping the door frame, his heart in turmoil. He could clearly feel that the footsteps outside the door carried a threat that could not be ignored. His mind was working rapidly, thinking about how to deal with the current situation. Yi Zhonghai behind him was still sitting quietly, but from his slightly trembling hands, it could be seen that his heart was also not at peace.

The sound coming from the door became clearer and clearer, and the knock on the door sounded again, with a sense of not being able to refuse. Li Xiangqian took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that now was not the time to panic, and any mistake could make the situation worse.

"Who?" he asked in a calm voice, trying his best to hide his inner anxiety.

There was silence outside the door for a moment, and then a deep voice came: "Li Xiangqian, we have something to discuss with you, open the door."

Li Xiangqian's heart suddenly tightened. He didn't recognize this voice, but the unquestionable attitude in the words made him understand that these people were definitely not ordinary visitors. He turned around and glanced at Yi Zhonghai, who nodded slightly, indicating that he should not reveal any flaws for the time being.

Li Xiangqian slowly opened the door, revealing a gap. Standing outside the door were two middle-aged men, dressed simply, but with an oppressive feeling that was hard to ignore. Their eyes were fixed on Li Xiangqian, as if they wanted to see through him.

"What's the matter?" Li Xiangqian's tone remained calm, but his palms were already sweating.

"We heard that Mr. Yi Zhonghai lives here and we want to talk to him." One of the men spoke. Although his tone was calm, it gave people a sense of hidden threat.

Li Xiangqian was thinking rapidly in his mind. He knew very well that these people were not visiting casually, and their purpose was obviously not pure. At this moment, he had to find a way to delay time and ensure Yi Zhonghai's safety.

"Zhong Hai has not been feeling well recently and just went to bed." Li Xiangqian said slowly, "If you have anything important to do, you can come back another day."

The two men looked at each other, one of them took a step back, as if observing the movement in the yard, while the other stared at Li Xiangqian sharply, as if trying to find some flaws in his face.

"We're just going to chat for a few minutes. It won't take long," the man insisted, taking a slight step forward as if preparing to force entry.

Li Xiangqian's heart sank. He knew that delaying any longer might cause more trouble. He quickly thought of the next countermeasures in his mind, while trying to stay calm. He suddenly smiled and stepped aside to make way: "Then please come in, but don't disturb him to rest."

The two men looked at each other and walked in. They swept their eyes around the yard, as if looking for some clues. Li Xiangqian closed the door and said casually, "What do you want from Zhong Hai? He really can't meet people recently."

"Just some small things." One of the men said lightly, but his eyes never left Li Xiangqian's face.

Li Xiangqian was grumbling in his heart. He knew that these people would never come just for "small matters", they were obviously coming for Yi Zhonghai. He had to find a way to make them leave as soon as possible without exposing any problems.

At this time, a slight cough was heard from inside the room, and Li Xiangqian was startled. He quickly turned around and shouted into the room: "Zhong Hai, why are you awake? Didn't I tell you to have a good rest?"

Yi Zhonghai's voice came from inside the house, sounding a little weak: "It's okay, I heard a guest coming, and I wanted to see who it was."

Li Xiangqian looked back at the two men with an apologetic smile on his face: "Look, he's not feeling well right now. Why don't you come back another day?"

The two men were obviously getting impatient. One of them said coldly, "Since he's awake, let's go in and talk."

Li Xiangqian's heart instantly rose to his throat. He knew he couldn't stop these people, so he could only try to stabilize the situation. He nodded and led them into the house.

The light in the room was a little dim. Yi Zhonghai sat on a chair, his face pale, his hands crossed on his knees, looking exceptionally calm. He looked up at the two people who came in, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "So it's you, just tell me what you want to say."

Two men stood in front of Yi Zhonghai, and one of them said, "Mr. Yi, we just want to ask you a few questions. Have you come into contact with anyone you shouldn't have recently?"

Yi Zhonghai frowned slightly, then revealed a helpless smile: "What do you mean by this? I'm just an ordinary person, how can I come into contact with people who I 'shouldn't come into contact with'?"

The other party was obviously not satisfied with this answer, and his tone became even colder: "Mr. Yi, it's better for you to be honest. We know some things, but we just want to hear you say it yourself."

Yi Zhonghai's eyes became sharp, and his voice was low but powerful: "If you really know something, then just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."

Li Xiangqian stood aside, feeling extremely nervous. He could feel that Yi Zhonghai's attitude had made the atmosphere even more tense, and it was clear that these two men would not give up easily.

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through Li Xiangqian's mind. He realized that if the stalemate continued, things would only get worse. He had to find a way to get these two men away and ensure Yi Zhonghai's safety.
