Originally, Guan Wenfeng had already arranged personnel, and it was only Li Shao who volunteered to take the initiative, thus securing the opportunity to approach Qin Feng and cause trouble. This young man, though not old, was far from naive—he saw this as the perfect chance to curry favor with the future crown prince. As long as he could resolve the issues facing him and successfully win the heart of the princess, he would gain entry into the crown prince’s inner circle, ensuring numerous future benefits. That’s why he eagerly led twelve people to set up a hidden position outside the Wei family’s compound, patiently waiting for Qin Feng and He Muqing’s arrival. Undoubtedly, his luck in this matter has been quite favorable—he waited just over an hour and then spotted the two of them getting into their vehicles, beaming with excitement and immediately directing his team to follow. Yet, his good fortune began to fade the very moment they stopped. All twelve were knocked down within half a minute, and he himself was thrown off balance, with a kick to his abdomen from Qin Daxiao. At that moment, he no longer remembered his original purpose—instead, he spilled the beans about the future crown prince the moment he opened his mouth, never mentioning that it was his own voluntary decision, but attributing it to the hidden force behind Guan Wenfeng. He watched him with a cold gaze, and remarked, "Little Li, don't think because you have allies that you can act with impunity in the capital. There are already enough people who can handle you. And if I find out you're mixing it up with the Guan family again, you'll be dead for sure!" Qin Daxiao suggested, "Qingqing, shall we kill him to eliminate him?" "What?" exclaimed the beautiful woman, her eyes wide open. Do you know who this young man is? He's the only son of the second-in-command of the capital military command. If we kill him, will his father even be willing to let it go?" He smiled brightly and said, "Intentionally attacking members of the Ministry of Defense's Special Operations Unit—we have the right to act first and then report. Whether he's the son of someone important or not, we can kill him without any legal liability!" Li Shao looked pale with sweat and immediately bowed, saying, "I'm sorry, your Excellencies. I've been wrong. Please forgive me. From now on, I'll never make such a mistake again. Will you give me a chance?" Indeed, a man from the heart of the capital—his bows were more precise than those portrayed in any historical drama. Was it truly inherited from his ancestors' good genes? Of course, Qin Feng didn't really intend to kill him. He merely wanted to intimidate the young man. After all, the other party had come only to create trouble. If they had come with the clear intention of killing, the scene would surely be littered with bodies at this very moment. The beautiful woman, He, realized this and smiled, saying, "Well, considering we're all familiar with each other, let's give him a chance this time." "Qin Dashi only reluctantly nodded, saying, 'Considering your plea on his behalf, I'll give him a pass this time. But remember, young man—whenever I see you again, I'll beat you. And if I see you once, I'll beat you so hard that even your mother won't recognize you!' 'I'll remember that. Thank you both.' To be thanked after getting beaten—this kid truly knows how to bend and adapt. "Li Sao quickly interjected, "No need, Guan Shao—please prioritize handling Qin Feng's matter right away. Otherwise, Guan's wife will truly be taken by that young man!" He didn't want Guan Wenfeng to go to the hospital because, on the surface, his injuries weren't serious—just a kick to the abdomen, nothing visible on his face. Guan Wenfeng had only been polite, showing no real intention to go himself. He said, "Since you put it that way, I won't pretend any longer. Once this matter is settled, I'll never let you down. You just rest and recover!" After hanging up, he slammed the table and exclaimed, "I should have known that Old Li was a reliable only in name. Indeed, he's more of a hindrance than a help. Now we've already sent the alarm, and the other side will surely be on guard. It'll be much harder to succeed now. To have taken the beating—well, that's entirely deserved. Next time, I'll make sure you learn to be smarter!" Not only did he show no gratitude toward Xiao Li, but he even voiced complaints, believing it was Xiao Li who had ruined his big plans. At the restaurant, the two of them enjoyed their meal heartily—having a pre-meal exercise truly made the food taste better. He Feiwen set down her chopsticks, took a tissue, and with a graceful motion wiped her lips, then asked, "Xiao Feng, how do you plan to handle Guan?" "Still not quite decided," Qin said, chewing on a piece of beef. "Guan's network of support is no ordinary one. If it were just a matter of dealing with him, the matter would be straightforward. But I believe the people behind him won't remain indifferent. Once they get involved, things are sure to grow more complicated." "So?" He Feiwen pressed on. Qin Dashi set down his chopsticks and said seriously, "Therefore, if we're to take action, we must resolve all underlying concerns and uncertainties first. Otherwise, our efforts will merely be temporary—what follows will be a multi-faceted, multi-pronged counteroffensive from the other side. Such a counteroffensive could come from all directions. For instance, when Lian Mingfei, a relatively junior municipal party secretary, managed to mobilize several departments to create difficulties for our company, how much more formidable would it be when Guan's father, a central committee member, is involved? His subordinates must surely be numerous and well-organized!" Therefore, a one-time, foolproof solution must be found to ensure absolute success. "Oh, I didn't expect things to turn out this complicated," He Leader sighed. Qin the Young, however, remained unfazed, smiling warmly, "Life, after all, is about facing various troubles and resolving them. The more troubles you encounter, the more confident you become. Perhaps someone else might feel their opponent too strong and retreat before even engaging—but that's never been my experience!" Qin the Young was well known for growing stronger when encountering the weak, and even stronger when facing the strong. He Leader chuckled, "Of course. The man I've chosen must be right. If you need any assistance, just let me know—both the He and Wei families will never remain passive!" He smiled contentedly. That's reassuring.
