Chapter 292: Chapter 290 Qin Langya Sets a Military Pledge
Yu Dongling’s eyes shimred as she listened to Qin Hao’s pledge, nodding heavily. Then, as if she thought of sothing, a blush crept onto her face again.
Just as Qin Hao was about to ask, Yu Dongling suddenly seed to muster so courage, then t Qin Hao’s gaze and said, “Hmm, could you close your eyes?”
“Why?”
Qin Hao asked curiously.
Yu Dongling shyly cooed, “Oh co on, just close them because I asked you to.”
Qin Hao obediently closed his eyes, and imdiately a fragrant breeze swept by. A warm, soft sensation touched his lips like a dragonfly skimming the water, then left quickly.
Qin Hao opened his eyes, only to see Yu Dongling had turned around, running ho swiftly, too embarrassed to look back. She waved casually, shouting out loud:
“Goodbye, have an early rest tonight, good night.”
Qin Hao watched her fleeing back, chuckled softly, then licked his lips, feeling cheerful as he headed ho.
anwhile, after Xiao Yu entered the police station, the chief quickly ca out to release Xiao Yu personally and drove him to the hospital.
Half an hour later, Xiao Yu had his wrist stabilized and bandaged, lying on a hospital bed. Next to him, Qin Langya and a middle-aged man stood respectfully, not daring to make a sound.
The middle-aged man had a buzz cut, looked sowhat frail, but his eyes held a serpentine, insidious glint.
He was the Patriarch of the Song Family, Song Changqing.
At this mont, bean-sized cold sweat dripped from Xiao Yu’s forehead, born of sheer pain. His wrist injury tortured him constantly. From a young age, Xiao Yu was pampered and spoiled, never having suffered such grievances. His eyes now brimd with resentnt.
All of this was thanks to Qin Hao. His hatred for Qin Hao was endless, like a mighty river cascading!
Seeing Xiao Yu’s condition, Song Changqing instantly understood that his Song Family would inevitably be caught in the crossfire of Xiao Yu’s rage. However, before that, he needed to transfer as much of Xiao Yu’s anger onto the Qin Family as possible.
Thus, breaking the silence in the ward, Song Changqing spoke first:
“Young Master Xiao, this Qin Hao is really worthless. I heard that a few days ago, you had already instructed the Qin Family to capture Qin Hao and have him kneel and apologize before you. So why is this still happening now?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Langya imdiately cursed Song Changqing in his mind!
What a sly fox, clearly younger than , yet so cunning!
Thinking this, he didn’t get to explain before Song Changqing gave him a sideways, provocative glance and added another jab:
“Young Master Xiao, don’t you think the Qin Family is covering up for Qin Hao because he’s one of them, not giving you the respect you deserve?”
“They claim to have severed ties with Qin Hao, but after all, they’re family. Blood is thicker than water. I think Qin Hao’s continued arrogance is undoubtedly due to the Qin Family’s secret indulgence!”
Xiao Yu’s forehead veins bulged in fury at these words. He had been beaten by Qin Hao before, while Qin Wentian stood by watching without daring to say a word!
He imdiately cursed at Qin Langya, “Useless! Your whole Qin Family is useless! Old man, I think you deliberately want to oppose . To think my Xiao Family helped you this ti, and this is how you repay us?”
Pointed at and scolded by Xiao Yu in this manner, Qin Langya didn’t dare to make a sound. He beca even more respectful, quickly addressing Xiao Yu:
“Young Master Xiao, please don’t believe Song Changqing’s provocations!”
“Qin Hao indeed has no connection to our Qin Family now, which is well-known in Qingshan City. Song Changqing, why are you inciting discord like this?”
But just as Qin Langya asked, Xiao Yu, lying in bed, coldly cut him off.
“Shut up!”
Qin Langya instantly obediently closed his mouth, lowering his head and listening to Xiao Yu’s rebuke. Although he was the Patriarch of the Qin Family, to the vast Xiao Family, he amounted to nothing!
“Useless, all of you in the Qin Family are useless! I don’t want to hear any more of your explanations.” Xiao Yu angrily scolded.
Song Changqing wore a schadenfreude-filled smile, casting a sidelong glance at Qin Langya, his heart full of delight.
Their Song Family had always been an outer force for the Xiao Family in Qingshan City. The Song Family’s strongest backing was the Xiao Family.
In a sense, the Song Family was the Xiao Family’s proxy! Hence, relying on the Xiao Family, they’ve maintained their position among the four great families!
Yet now, as the Qin Family suddenly erged, suggesting an attempt to align with the Xiao Family given old ties. Xiao Jintian investing to help the Qin Family through tough tis also hinted at making the Qin Family the next Song Family.
This made Song Changqing wary of the Qin Family since Qingshan City was only so large. With the Xiao Family as a backing, the Song Family enjoyed a transcendent status for long enough, unwilling to let the Qin Family easily share in the benefits.
Xiao Yu’s face looked grim as he regarded Qin Langya and impatiently continued: “Qin Langya, I’m giving your Qin Family one last chance. Three days, only three days. If I don’t see Qin Hao kneel before , then your Qin Family has no reason to remain in Qingshan City.”
“You should know that my Xiao Family already has Song Changqing handling things. Your Qin Family, weigh carefully the cost of provoking my Xiao Family!”
Hearing Xiao Yu’s words, Song Changqing’s countenance beca even more arrogant.
Their Song Family, as Xiao Jintian’s proxy, was cushioned with much affection, naturally superior to anything the Qin Family could match.
He cast another glance at Qin Langya and added, “Young Master Xiao, you’re truly too kind-hearted. The Qin Family has wasted countless opportunities. If you ask , just leave this matter to us. Our Song Family doesn’t need much ti, a day, just one day! Qin Hao will definitely kneel before you!”
Qin Langya’s face turned pale with fear upon hearing this, hastily and anxiously pleading: “Young Master Xiao, don’t fall for Song Changqing’s provocations. Our Qin Family pledges loyalty to you. I assure you, just grant us this final chance!”
“This ti, if Qin Hao remains defiant, then every mber of our Qin Family will be at your disposal!”
Xiao Yu snorted through his nose and sternly said, “Leave, all of you. I’m granting you one last chance!”
As Xiao Yu finished speaking, Qin Langya felt as if he had received a great pardon and quickly walked out.
Song Changqing followed behind, sneering as he exited the ward.
The night passed quietly.
In Qin Hao’s ho, as daylight broke, a festive atmosphere was even more apparent.
“Alright, alright, we’re here. No peeking!”
Zhao ngke covered Gu Qinyue’s eyes with her hands from behind, while Lin Yuhan led the two of them into the room. It was Gu Qinyue’s birthday today, and everything was ready, just waiting for the final surprise.
Qin Hao stood at the door watching them, his lips curled into a happy smile.
Gu Qinyue was full of curiosity as they led her inside, and Zhao ngke cheerfully whispered in her ear:
“Are you ready? I’ll count to three, and then you can open your eyes!”
Gu Qinyue, with her eyes covered by Zhao ngke’s hands, moved restlessly in her arms and smiled, “Oh, Sister ng Ke, Sister Yu Han, what’s all this secrecy? Where’s Brother Hao?”
“Hehe, you’ll see him soon!”
Zhao ngke playfully pinched her cheek, then said:
“Three, two……”
“One!”
As soon as she finished counting, she swiftly released her hands, and Gu Qinyue promptly opened her eyes, looking ahead.
