She is called Sister Ming and Ming Nu, and she also says that she is her past. Who else could it be but her beautiful wife, Que Ming?
Li Qiangfei shook his head repeatedly, roaring madly, "No, impossible! How could she betray me? How could she possibly betray me!"
He then glared at He Qinzhou and Li Qingqing with bloodshot eyes, and shouted hoarsely, "I don't believe it! Don't try to sow discord between me and Ming'er!"
He Qinzhou had anticipated Li Qiangfei's reaction. He raised an eyebrow, shrugged, and spread his hands. "Why would we lie to you? You know Mingnu doesn't like you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qiangfei's expression froze, his anger subsided, and a look of weariness and disappointment replaced it.
Yes, Ming'er doesn't like me at all. She's only with me because of my money. I should have known this a long time ago.
I'm a failure right now, so what face do I have to keep her here?
The more he thought about it, the more disappointed he became, but he was still unwilling to give up and a glimmer of hope remained in his heart. He gritted his teeth and looked at He Qinzhou, "No, even so, she would never compromise for you. She must have been forced into it by you."
"I'm only responsible for telling you this. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. After all, my main purpose in coming here is just to deal with you." He Qinzhou revealed a wicked smile and looked at his beautiful wife beside him.
He asked again, "Wife, have you decided what to do with your father?"
Li Qingqing cast a resentful glance at Li Qiangfei, took a deep breath, and said, "Let Zhang Hu come. I believe he can give me a satisfactory answer."
Without saying anything more, he crossed his arms and turned to leave the underground chamber.
Li Qingqing felt pain and despair because her parents had used and abandoned her.
She had already brought revenge on her mother, turning her into her husband's slave, and as for her father, she had originally intended to send him to hell to repent.
In the end, she held back and let her husband's men decide her father's fate, which was her final act of filial piety.
The family feud came to an end, and Li Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't feel the ease and relief she had imagined.
She returned to her room, collapsed onto the bed, stared blankly at the ceiling, and two streams of tears silently flowed from her bright eyes.
……
In the underground chamber.
He Qinzhou called Zhang Hu and gave him the task of how to deal with Li Qiangfei, entrusting him with full responsibility.
After hanging up the phone, He Qinzhou looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, who was muttering to himself with his head down, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.
He slowly began to speak, “Father-in-law, do you know, my mother-in-law is really wild. I can only say that she is a married woman. I just pat her butt and she knows to change positions.”
He Qinzhou's lewd words reached Li Qiangfei's ears like a thunderclap, instantly turning him from a dazed state into a furious glare at He Qinzhou.
He shouted as if he were going mad, "You monster! There's not a single good person in your He family! We're just here because we didn't pay back the money, is this how you treat us?"
Hearing Li Qiangfei's angry shout, He Qinzhou was stunned for a moment before he understood and then burst into laughter.
Yes, he didn't know that the He family didn't care about the mere 500 million at all, and thought it was retaliation from the He family.
Since you don't know, there's no need to know. It's fine to just stay confused like this.
He Qinzhou turned to leave, but stopped at the door and said in a playful and flippant tone, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, Mingnu is pregnant."
After saying that, he continued to walk out, while Li Qiangfei's legs went weak and he fell to the ground, his eyes glazed over, and soon he burst into laughter.
The continuous and excessive stimulation tormented his mind, and he finally broke down.
When He Qinzhou returned to his room, he didn't see Li Qingqing, so he went to her room instead.
He knew his wife needed his comfort at that moment, so he turned the doorknob and found it was locked from the inside.
Helpless, He Qinzhou could only knock on the door and say softly, "Wife, it's me. Please open the door. I have something to tell you."
Li Qingqing's melodious voice drifted from inside the room, though it carried a hint of weariness. "Honey, I'm a little tired. I want to rest. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Seeing that his beloved wife really wanted to be alone, He Qinzhou had no choice but to put aside his plans.
Li Qingqing is currently the only female protagonist who has reached level 5 of corruption, therefore she is the only one who can engage in dual cultivation with He Qinzhou.
He originally intended to use the excuse of comforting Li Qingqing to engage in dual cultivation, which would both comfort his beloved wife and improve his strength—a win-win situation.
"Never mind, I should get some rest tonight. I still need to prepare a birthday gift tomorrow morning." He Qinzhou regained his composure, went back to his room, took a shower, and went to sleep.
……
The sun shines brightly, and the sun rises in the east.
He Qinzhou had already woken up from his sleep. After washing up and dressing up carefully, he ate a little breakfast in the living room and then drove his Porsche 911 alone to a very famous jade shop in the city center.
He Qinzhou believes that the old man simply likes two things: jade and antiques.
Antiques are prone to being counterfeited. Although Heqinzhou has the Corruption System, which has a system shop with some treasure appraisal capabilities.
However, He Qinzhou doesn't have enough Corruption Points to exchange for it right now, and he feels that it would be a waste to exchange for the Treasure Appraisal skill just to give a gift to Old Master Chen at his birthday banquet.
If it's because I performed well that the system gave me a reward, that would be more like it!
He Qinzhou arrived at the jade shop quickly, parked his car, and walked straight inside.
It must be said that the jade shop is really big, magnificent and grand, with a golden and splendid appearance. It probably covers an area of more than a thousand square meters, and can be described as a small museum.
Various jade artifacts were densely displayed inside, some placed in glass cabinets, while others were simply placed outside. He Qinzhou was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, not knowing where to look.
However, after wandering around for a while, He Qinzhou found that many of the jade pieces displayed in glass cases looked more upscale than those outside.
No wonder it needs to be protected and isolated with a glass cabinet.
As He Qinzhou wandered around the jade shop, he unknowingly looked at about a third of the jade items. Just then, he discovered something inconspicuous yet very attractive.
It was a jade Guanyin pendant. When the shop assistant saw He Qinzhou lingering in front of the pendant and examining it carefully, he smiled and went up to explain it to him.
"This is a Guanyin jade pendant blessed by the eminent monk Mingguang of Jingguang Temple with Buddhist teachings. Wearing it is believed to prolong life and bring good fortune and ward off evil."
“Master Mingguang of Jingguang Temple?” He Qinzhou carefully searched his mind for information about the two scripts, but found nothing about the temple or the high monk.
However, Tang Shuai's script mentions that the male protagonist obtained this jade tablet by chance, and the jade tablet has the effect of removing abnormal states in the body, which played a crucial role in his battles in the early and middle stages.
If this weren't the scenario described in the script provided by the system, he probably wouldn't have noticed this very ordinary Guanyin jade pendant. Even if he had, he would have suspected that someone was deliberately using this jade pendant to swindle people.
Having my own system makes this thing somewhat useless to me, but it's an absolute treasure to ordinary people.
It all depends on whether the Chen family can recognize its value.
He Qinzhou stroked his chin, thinking to himself.
After choosing the gift, He Qinzhou paid the bill and asked the shop assistant to put it in a beautiful brocade box.
Having chosen the gift, He Qinzhou drove his Porsche 911 back to Junlin Villa.
Chapter 62: The Chen Family Birthday Banquet
When He Qinzhou returned to Junlin Manor, Que Ming and Mu Yuxin were sitting in the large living room, but Li Qingqing was nowhere to be seen.
A quick inquiry with the female servants revealed that Li Qingqing had not yet left the room, and it was unclear whether she was still asleep.
He Qinzhou knew that his wife needed some peace and quiet after what happened last night, so he didn't disturb her too much.
Time passed quietly, and it was almost noon when Li Qingqing finally came out of her room, went downstairs to the living room, and immediately attracted the attention of Que Ming and Mu Yuxin.
Both women were very puzzled, especially Que Ming. After all, Li Qingqing was her daughter, and they had been together for so many years. She had never seen her get up so late.
Although Mu Yuxin and Li Qingqing met through He Qinzhou, they had only known each other for a week.
However, through this week's interactions, her initial impression of Li Qingqing is that she is also a girl who doesn't sleep in late.
Perhaps sensing the concerned looks from the two beauties, Li Qingqing returned their smiles and said lightly, "It's nothing."
However, upon seeing Que Ming, she couldn't help but recall her decision from last night, and a complex look appeared in her eyes.
The moment He Qinzhou saw Li Qingqing come down, he went straight to her and immediately pulled his wife's soft body into his arms.
Her pink forehead pressed tightly against his strong chest, and the delicate fragrance of her embroidered hair and the faint scent of a young woman filled the man's nostrils.
Without saying a word, the man lowered his head and kissed the cherry lips of the beauty in his arms. Feeling the full, smooth, and soft touch, he couldn't help but feel a little domineering.
They only gradually separated their tightly pressed lips when they were both nearly suffocating.
Seeing, touching, and smelling these things helped He Qinzhou relax a lot.
Although his wife always seemed eager to take revenge on her parents, He Qinzhou was actually a little worried when he didn't see her rejoice after she actually succeeded.
He asked gently in a slightly magnetic voice, "Are you alright?"
The man's care and tenderness filled Li Qingqing's heart with emotion, sweeping away the gloom. She smiled gently, like a faint ray of sunshine drifting across the corner of her mouth.
"Of course, you underestimate me too much." Li Qingqing gave him a playful glare.
Hearing his wife's alluring voice again, He Qinzhou knew that his darling Qingqing, who was as seductive as a little vixen, had returned.
He patted his wife's shapely bottom and said, "You must be very hungry since you didn't have breakfast. You need to eat a proper lunch."
Although Mu Yuxin and Que Ming were puzzled by what they saw, since their men didn't seem inclined to say anything, they suppressed their curiosity and went to the dining table to have lunch together.
……
Five p.m.
He Qinzhou drove a yellow Lamborghini Aventador to the Lin family's house.
Lin Wan'er was already standing at the door waiting for his arrival, holding a blue and white porcelain vase in her hands.
Lin Wan'er's outfit was clearly carefully chosen. She wore a pink off-shoulder bodycon dress that accentuated her shapely figure. Her breasts were full and rounded, her buttocks were perky and round like a peach, and her fair and jade-like thighs exposed a large expanse of skin. Below them, her two long and straight calves were as smooth as jade.
She wore a pair of beige Valentino high heels with three rows of studs that accentuated her height, making her stand out in a crowd.
Lin Wan'er opened the car door and climbed into the passenger seat of the Lamborghini. As the woman entered, the car was instantly filled with the scent of Chanel perfume and the faint fragrance emanating from her body.
The two fragrances blended together, giving people an incredibly refreshing and invigorating feeling, which made He Qinzhou take a few more breaths.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice that Lin Wan'er's pretty face was lightly made up, with a touch of alluring charm amidst her flawless complexion. With just one glance, He Qinzhou was captivated.
Lin Wan'er saw the man's infatuation with her beauty and was secretly delighted, smiling to herself.
You little brat, you think I can handle you with ease?
Realizing he had lost his composure, He Qinzhou coughed lightly and said calmly, "You look quite good today."
Such a direct compliment made Lin Wan'er blush with embarrassment. She lowered her head and whispered a thank you in a voice barely above a whisper.
An awkward atmosphere briefly filled the car. To ease the tension, He Qinzhou started the Lamborghini and drove towards the Chen family's house.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, when He Qinzhou and Lin Wan'er arrived at the entrance of the Chen family villa, the place was already bustling with traffic, with all kinds of luxury cars appearing one after another.
The Chen family has a complex and intertwined network of relationships with various parties in Yangcheng.
Given the Chen family's status as a first-class family in Yangcheng, any move they make can shake the entire city.
The former patriarch, Chen Jianhao, was a prominent figure in Yangcheng when he was young.
Therefore, almost all the wealthy and powerful families in Yangcheng were present at today's birthday banquet.
Even those who haven't received a formal invitation will still try to pull strings and use connections to get one.
He Qinzhou and Lin Wan'er parked their car near the Chen family's gate and got out. As the woman got out of the car, she took a blue and white porcelain vase from the car. As soon as she turned around, she found that He Qinzhou had disappeared.
Lin Wan'er pouted in grievance and stomped her foot angrily, "Hmph! You bad guy, you saw me holding such a big vase, but you didn't come to help me!"
"Who are you cursing?" A deep and magnetic voice rang in Lin Wan'er's ear, startling her.
Lin Wan'er quickly lowered her head, feeling guilty and not daring to look at He Qinzhou again.
Oh no, did he hear me yelling at him?
At this moment, He Qinzhou was holding a brocade box containing a jade Guanyin pendant, looking at Lin Wan'er with a half-smile.
"How dare you speak ill of me?" He Qinzhou raised an eyebrow, looking at the pure and lovely woman in front of him with amusement.
"Who...who said anything bad about you...clearly...clearly you just misheard..." Lin Wan'er blushed as her crime was exposed, and could only stammer in rebuttal, but her voice grew softer and softer as she spoke.
Lin Wan'er's adorable appearance captivated He Qinzhou. He smiled and said, "It's getting late, the birthday banquet is about to begin, let's go in."
After saying that, He Qinzhou stepped forward and took the blue and white porcelain vase from Lin Wan'er's hand, saying in a teasing tone, "Let me help you carry it. Looking at your skinny arms and legs, you definitely can't lift it."
Lin Wan'er showed no hesitation and handed the vase to He Qinzhou, saying haughtily, "Hmph! I can do without you, but since you've been so kind to help me, how can I refuse you?"
Although she was sharp-tongued, she was secretly overjoyed.
Seeing that He Qinzhou was not only carrying the congratulatory gift he had prepared, but also helping her move the vase, Lin Wan'er felt a little guilty. She turned her head to the side and pretended not to care, but her cherry lips parted slightly and she said, "Let me help you carry your gift. It must be inconvenient to carry two gifts at the same time."
For He Qinzhou, who was at the second level of the Golden Core stage, a blue and white porcelain vase and a brocade box were nothing special and he could easily lift them.
However, this is a chance to get closer to the female lead, Lin Wan'er, so naturally, he can't let it go.
Based on Lin Wan'er's mindset and behavior, as well as the corruption value that the corruption system could access, He Qinzhou was 100% certain that Lin Wan'er liked him!
However, because she was stubborn and her level of corruption was not high at the time, she did not admit it.
