Chapter 431: The Beauty, Qin's Young Noble, and the Shrewd Merchant

返回章节列表
?Mobile reading Gensens asked his bodyguards to stop, walking alone toward his daughter and Qin Feng. "Mr. Qin, what a coincidence—we're able to meet here today," he said warmly, greeting him with a smile. Dressed in a well-tailored suit, he appeared refined and polished, his smile befitting the image of a gentleman. Yet Qin Feng knew him too well—the man had long been employing underhanded tactics to undermine colleagues and competitors, going to great lengths to eliminate rivals, often turning companies into casualties of his schemes before acquiring them himself and building his success on the very failures of others. Of course, in the business world, where competition is fierce, few could emerge unscathed from such adversaries. What truly set Gensens apart was the constant ambiguity of his methods—always hovering between legitimate and illegitimate. For companies defeated by him, pursuing legal recourse to protect their interests was nothing short of a dream. This wisdom and strategy have secured him the throne of the world's wealthiest man—of course, in the process, he has accumulated countless enemies, which is why his only daughter has become the target of a covert assassination. Qin Feng glanced at this merchant, forcing a smile. "Indeed, I didn't expect to meet you both here!" "Mr. Gessen, are you here for business purposes?" Gessen deliberately emphasized the three words "for business," knowing full well of Qin Feng's identity as a killer. Qin Feng shook his head, speaking seriously. "Though I am currently a businessman, I am not here for business—my purpose is to enjoy a leisurely visit." "Really?" Gessen clearly remained skeptical. "That's true," Poisson immediately interjected. "Mr. Qin Feng is currently the Chairman of the Qin Group, a leading enterprise in the Chinese nation. He is engaged in genuine business ventures. Didn't your father remember that we recently partnered with a company from China—the Qin Group?" "Gesson certainly remembers this. How could he have lowered his proud posture—especially as the world's leading automotive company—and partnered with a relatively unknown firm, even giving up a significant portion of his profits, unless it were to repay Qin Feng's personal favor?" said Geson, smiling. "This truly embodies the old Chinese saying: 'After three days apart, one should look at a person with fresh eyes.' Qin先生, you've come here for leisure, yet you haven't brought your girlfriend along. Isn't that odd?" As soon as he said this, Yashie immediately turned pale, glaring at her father. Qin, the young man, didn't care at all. "My visit here was only a temporary decision, and I won't be staying long, so I didn't bring my girlfriend. Besides, in a place so dull—where nothing of interest happens and the sand is everywhere—it's not good for women's skin!" Yashie's mouth automatically pouted. She understood this was a strategic exchange between the two men, and the feeling of being caught in the middle was truly unbearable. Gesens insisted, "Since it's like this, we won't disturb Mr. Qin's pleasure anymore. Let's go back to the hotel, the outside situation is so chaotic—Father is genuinely worried about your safety." Yapo clearly didn't want to leave Qin Feng just yet, and quietly asked, "Which hotel are you staying at? When you return from your sightseeing, I'll come find you—we can have dinner together, won't we?" Before Qin Feng could respond, Gesens began urging again, "Yapo, Mr. Qin must have something important to attend to—please don't interrupt him!" Upon hearing this, Qin, the young lord, couldn't help but feel his temper flare up. You NND, Gesens—aren't you the one who owes me a favor? Even if you feel you've repaid me, can that small gesture possibly compare to the safety of your precious daughter's life? Instead of showing any courtesy, you treat me like a thief, as if I were trying to take advantage of your household all along. This move from Gesson sparked Qin Feng's rebellious spirit. You weren't afraid that something might happen between me and your daughter? Well then, I'll make it happen just as you wished. With a charming smile directed at Yapo, he said, "I've only just landed and haven't had time to book a hotel room yet. How about this—would you help me reserve one for me?" "Cough...cough..." Gesson began clearing his throat. "Of course," Yapo ignored her father's coughing and hesitant gaze, and immediately agreed. "Thank you so much," Qin Feng began to charm her. The beautiful young woman was instantly dazzled, her eyes sparkling with stars as she said, "Don't worry—I'll definitely book you the best room. Oh, wait—my father has already taken the best room. How about you just stay in the room next to mine? I'll have those pesky bodyguards move out right away!" "Cough...cough... Daughter, this isn't quite appropriate," Gesson began to express his discomfort. Yaspo said with unwavering confidence, "I think it's perfect. Shouldn't Dad give up his room, or have Mr. Qin share it with me? After all, my room has two bedrooms—what do you think?" Gossens thought it over and decided it was better for him to stay in the adjacent room—living with her would make his father even more concerned. Qin Daxian, nearly furious at the merchant's persistence, said seriously, "I still have a few matters to attend to, so I'll step out now. Goodbye, Yaspo!" The young lady nodded enthusiastically, like a chick tapping her feet, "Go ahead and handle your affairs—I'll prepare the room. We'll have dinner together tonight. I'll be waiting for you!" Qin Feng looked at Gossens with a thoughtful expression, seeing the man's growing helplessness, and then smiled and left. Yaspo stared intently at his back, not even noticing when Gossens passed by. "Daughter, let's go back now." "He said earnestly, 'You must know that Qin Feng and we aren't on the same page. Don't develop feelings for her—definitely you'll be the one who ends up hurt!' Aphrodite raised her eyebrows, clearly disagreeing with her father's view. Indeed, she immediately replied, 'When you used to say this, I never challenged you. But now that he's a serious businessman, why aren't we on the same track? After all, aren't you also a businessman? Isn't it just because Mr. Qin's business isn't as large as yours, or doesn't have as much family wealth as ours?' It's no surprise that Gossens holds such a strong sense of family prestige—he sees himself as the world's wealthiest man and believes his daughter-in-law must come from a similarly affluent background. As for Qin Feng, though he is the chairman of a company, he's simply far from world-class when compared to Gossens. 'You've been studying Chinese culture these past months—you should know the meaning of the saying, 'It's easy to change the landscape, but hard to change one's nature.' " "Gensens continued earnestly: 'Even if he changes his identity, he'll still be bound by his history as a killer!' Apo had her own opinion, saying: 'But you can't keep viewing him through a biased lens just because of that past. I think you should give us a chance!'"
