He Qinzhou was resting with his eyes closed, carefully considering whether there were any flaws in his plan.
After reviewing the situation for a while, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Today is Long Tiancheng's birthday.
"Honey, the protective suits you arranged have been obtained."
Lin Wan'er knocked on the door and came in, taking out two boxes.
I randomly opened a box, and inside was a piece of clothing!
The clothing is very lightweight, weighing only about two kilograms, but its protective effect is amazing!
Made entirely of carbon fiber, it doesn't look bulky at all, even when worn under clothing.
He took the protective suit and nodded in satisfaction.
"Well done, thank you for your hard work."
After getting dressed, He Qinzhou looked in the mirror and kissed Lin Wan'er on the red lips.
After leaving the room, he found Mu Yuxin.
After being told her all about her background, Mu Yuxin stood there stunned, as if petrified.
"Honey...are you serious?"
Mu Yuxin's tone was filled with excitement and disbelief.
He Qinzhou smiled mischievously and pinched Mu Yuxin's little nose. "Today happens to be the birthday of the Long family patriarch. Why don't you come with me to the Long family and you'll find out?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Yuxin's expression became complicated, and she bit her moist lower lip, looking conflicted.
After a long while, she finally nodded in agreement to He Qinzhou's proposal.
"Okay, go change your clothes now, we'll go to the Long family together later."
As he spoke, He Qinzhou handed the protective suit in his hand to Mu Yuxin and said, "Put this on while you're at it."
After receiving the protective suit, Mu Yuxin had some doubts, but since her man had said so, she would just do as he said.
With that thought in mind, Mu Yuxin turned around and went back to her room.
A short while later, Mu Yuxin came out of the room.
Looking at Mu Yuxin in her form-fitting silver-gray evening gown and white low-heeled sandals, He Qinzhou couldn't help but feel a sense of amazement.
He stepped forward, took Mu Yuxin's hand, and said affectionately, "Yuxin, you are so beautiful."
Hearing her man's praise, Mu Yuxin felt a sweet warmth in her heart and took the initiative to link arms with He Qinzhou.
"Then let's leave now."
He Qinzhou smiled faintly, then went downstairs with Mu Yuxin and headed towards the Long family's residence.
Thirty minutes later.
A Maybach appeared at the Long family's gate.
"Uncle Lu, you can wait here... nothing will go wrong."
After telling Lu Zhiyun to wait where he was, He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin went straight into the Long family home.
Because it was in Kyoto, the Long family's security guards recognized He Qinzhou at a glance, and even though He Qinzhou did not produce an invitation, the guards still chose to let him through.
He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin arrived at the Long family's banquet hall.
The banquet hall was already bustling with activity, and it was filled with people of questionable character.
He was surrounded by people of high status or scions of prominent families.
People of their social class often use these gatherings as an opportunity to connect with each other, which also provides opportunities for brokers.
Brokers would introduce each other to these prominent families based on their needs, thus securing business for them.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw He Qinzhou appear in the banquet hall with Mu Yuxin.
Although most people present knew that He Qinzhou was not as powerful as before, the He family's influence was simply too great!
Most of the people present had some business dealings with the He family.
It could even be said that they depended on the He family for survival.
Therefore, they had heard some things about what happened within the He family some time ago.
However, no matter what, as long as He Qinzhou is still a member of the He family, this group of people must give He Qinzhou enough respect!
Even on the surface!
After He Qinzhou appeared, everyone gathered around him.
"Young Master He, you still look incredibly energetic after all this time!"
"I really envy you young people. Unlike us old folks, our energy is not what it used to be."
All sorts of sweet words kept pouring into He Qinzhou's ears.
But He Qinzhou knew very well that these people were simply asking him for something.
Otherwise, who would give a kind look to a spoiled brat who is already obsessed with women?
He Qinzhou greeted everyone with a smile and introduced Mu Yuxin to the many corporate executives present.
After Yuxin inherits the Long family, she will need to make connections, and now is a good opportunity.
He Qinzhou thought to himself.
Chapter 370: Assassination
At first, these business elites didn't pay much attention to Mu Yuxin.
Everyone thought that this woman was nothing more than a plaything of He Qinzhou.
But after talking with Mu Yuxin, everyone was impressed by her business acumen!
He Qinzhou was also somewhat surprised.
Because Mu Yuxin had never worked for any group before, he was unaware that she possessed such high business acumen.
Originally, He Qinzhou had planned to reveal Mu Yuxin's identity, but it seems...
This matter can be postponed for now.
"Oh, isn't this the He family's stray dog? What, don't you need to compete for the position of He family head? You actually have time to come to my grandfather's birthday banquet with a woman?"
A man said with a forced smile.
Everyone looked toward the source of the sound, their expressions immediately changed, and they quickly looked away, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.
Looking at the somewhat familiar man in front of him, He Qinzhou had already anticipated this.
Now that I've come to the Long family, it's only a matter of time before I meet Long Yang.
He Qinzhou ignored Long Yang's provocation, glanced at him silently, and then walked away with Mu Yuxin in his arms.
Seeing that the other party dared to ignore him like this, Long Yang was about to explode with anger!
He was about to lash out, but then, as if remembering something, he stopped.
There are too many people and too many eyes in the banquet hall now, so it's inconvenient to do anything.
If the news of He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin's assassination attempts reaches that old codger's ears, I can't guarantee that he won't donate the entire Long family's fortune in a fit of anger.
Long Yang watched He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin's retreating figures, thinking viciously, "Fine, let you jump around a bit more. I'll deal with you without you even noticing."
"You just tried to steal the Long family's business from me? You're asking for death!"
As time passed, it was time for the banquet to begin.
After taking the stage, Long Tiancheng delivered a long and tedious speech, expressing his gratitude to everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend his banquet at the Long family home, and hoping that everyone would enjoy the meal.
Then, just when everyone thought that Long Tiancheng's speech was over, he suddenly said, "I have something else to announce."
"Many years ago, because of my ignorance and stubbornness, I drove my daughter away. So many years have passed and I have not heard anything from her."
“I miss her very much, so I have been sending people to search for her. Only recently did I learn that Yiting has already left me and left this world.”
"I am heartbroken, but heaven has been kind to me and has given me a chance to make amends."
“I’ve found out that Yiting has a daughter named Mu Yuxin. So I hope that after I pass away, the Long family’s business will be inherited by Yuxin. This can be considered as compensation for the years I have wronged Yiting.”
"However, although that's what I say, unfortunately, I've never seen Yu Xin's face. So I hope that anyone who knows anything about her can let me know. I would be extremely grateful, and from now on, your family will be an ally of our Long family!"
These words immediately caused a huge uproar.
Long Yang's eyes were bloodshot with rage as he glared at Mu Yuxin and He Qinzhou.
Long Tiancheng didn't know where Mu Yuxin was, but Long Yang knew perfectly well!
Long Yang gritted his teeth in hatred.
However, he soon gave a wicked smile, as if he had expected this scene and was therefore well prepared.
Sure enough, just as the guests were discussing the matter, the lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed.
Seeing this, Long Yang's gaze toward He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin revealed a hint of pity.
This feeling of being in complete control and having everything under your command is simply wonderful!
Just as she had anticipated, a lithe figure suddenly rushed to the bottom of the podium!
That was exactly where He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin were!
It's obvious that this assassin is after He Qinzhou and Mu Yuxin!
Almost the instant the assassin made his move, Mu Yuxin instinctively rushed over, ready to shield He Qinzhou from the blow!
However, the well-trained assassin clearly didn't care who the target was; both of them were going to die today anyway!
A sharp dagger flew towards Mu Yuxin.
He Qinzhou reacted quickly, pulling Mu Yuxin into his arms and protecting her tightly.
The dagger landed on He Qinzhou's shoulder!
The assassin stabbed He Qinzhou five or six times, but it felt like he was stabbing a steel plate; He Qinzhou didn't react at all!
He Qinzhou seized the opportunity to retaliate, landing a punch on the assassin's abdomen.
The powerful punch sent the assassin flying several meters away.
confusion!
The woman's piercing screams, the sound of shattering glasses, and the noise of moving tables and chairs all mingled together!
"Qinzhou, let's go quickly!"
Mu Yuxin was still lost in thought about Long Tiancheng's words when the sudden situation terrified her. All she wanted to do now was leave as soon as possible.
The assassin seemed surprised to find that He Qinzhou was actually a cultivator and martial artist, as the investigation materials clearly stated that he was just a useless playboy!
Long Yang, who had been hiding in the corner and keeping a close eye on the situation, had bloodshot eyes!
How can it be?
This guy He Qinzhou actually knows martial arts?
It was as if fate was playing a cruel joke on him!
He clenched his fists, not intending to reveal his identity during the assassination attempt.
That's why he didn't arrange for his own top agents to participate directly in this operation, but instead deployed assassins from the internet.
I originally thought that one assassin would be more than enough to deal with He Qinzhou.
But to my surprise, the assassin I hired was knocked to the ground with just one blow!
The assassin's eyes were filled with malice; he refused to believe he had failed so easily.
He quickly stood up, and without hesitation, he wielded the sharp knife in his hand, channeling his inner energy, and slashed towards Mu Yuxin's neck like a butterfly flitting among flowers!
He Qinzhou reached out and gently grabbed Mu Yuxin's arm, pulling her behind him.
The assassin's sharp knife narrowly missed Mu Yuxin's neck!
Having survived the ordeal, Mu Yuxin felt a sharp, piercing sensation on her neck, which gave her goosebumps.
When she came to her senses, a tall figure was already standing in front of her.
