Qin Er Ge subconsciously closed his eyes, but the expected pain did not come. After a long time, Qin Er Ge hesitantly opened his eyes, only to find Qin Chuan's palm stopped less than an inch from his forehead.
His younger brother, Qin Chuan, with a dark face, said fiercely, "If you weren't my brother, I would have slapped you!"
"You've really brought honor to our Qin family, going out to find prostitutes, not only failing to succeed but also getting beaten up by others!"
Being cursed at by Qin Chuan in public, Qin Er Ge's face turned red. He weakly retorted, "I... I really didn't want to cause trouble, it's just that those people were too overbearing!"
"They were overbearing, so you're a wimp?"
Qin Chuan sneered, "Don't think that just because I'm busy with company matters every day, I know nothing about your situation. Ever since you got a little money, you've been going out with those disreputable friends, eating and drinking excessively, spending your days in various entertainment venues, and the massage parlors are your frequent haunts."
"Your reputation, Qin Er Ge, is even more famous than mine in Yongnan County. Many people know that I, Qin Chuan, have a brother who indulges in debauchery."
"I gave you money to fix that Audi and then learn to do business. Did you listen to me?"
Qin Er Ge was speechless.
"How did other older brothers do it, and how did you do it?"
"I even heard many people say that you, Qin Er Ge, are quite domineering. If anyone displeases you, you dare to bring people to beat them up. I ask you, is there such a thing?"
Qin Er Ge subconsciously shook his head rapidly, "No! Absolutely not..."
Before he could finish, his gaze met Qin Chuan's enraged eyes, and he gradually fell silent.
The entire hospital room was silent, with everyone holding their breath.
Zhou Er Wa, Wu A Ping, and Xie Jun, standing in the corner, widened their eyes. In their perception, Qin Chuan had always been a gentle person, occasionally a bit cunning, but still easy to get along with.
Among the three Qin brothers, the eldest was honest and kind, the second was rebellious, but the scene before them overturned all their perceptions.
Was this still the Qin Er Ge they knew?
Was this still the third Qin brother they knew?
The usually rebellious Qin Er Ge was so timid in front of his younger brother, being scolded to his face.
And the third Qin brother, so powerful and domineering, exuded an intimidating aura, like a superior, his pressure covering the entire scene.
"Xiao Chuan, your second brother is still injured. Let him rest first!"
Finally, Qin Yang stepped forward to play the peacemaker.
Qin Chuan stared coldly at Qin Er Ge, "I'll settle the score with you when you're healed!"
"You three, come out with me!"
The last sentence was directed at Zhou Er Wa, Wu A Ping, and Xie Jun.
Upon hearing this, the three subconsciously felt an unprecedented fear because Qin Chuan's change today was too drastic, making them very scared.
They had all been involved in last night's events. If Qin Chuan really held them accountable one by one, they couldn't imagine the consequences.
"Why are you all standing there like fools? Let's go!"
Yao Dong cursed loudly, his dark face like a malevolent god, adding to his intimidating presence.
The three trembled and followed them out of the ward into the adjacent room.
Qin Chuan sat on a bed, his face as dark as water, smoking heavily.
After the three entered, he got straight to the point, "You all remember the people who beat you yesterday, right?"
"Remember! Remember!"
The three nodded enthusiastically. They had just been beaten yesterday, how could they forget?
"From now on, you three will follow their arrangements."
Qin Chuan pointed at Zheng Cheng Dao, Yao Dong, and Bai Xiao Guang.
"Do whatever they tell you to do, and make sure you find the people who beat you."
Hearing this arrangement, Zhou Er Wa, Wu A Ping, and Xie Jun were all stunned. Especially when they saw the intentionally bared white teeth of Yao Dong and Bai Xiao Guang, they shivered inexplicably.
"Xiao... Qin Chuan, but we are still injured..."
Wu A Ping said subconsciously.
"These injuries are nothing. Back then, I took three sword wounds, each exposing bone, and I still fought people to the death."
Bai Xiao Guang stepped forward and walked towards Wu A Ping, scaring the latter into retreating, almost falling.
"Cowards!"
Bai Xiao Guang showed a look of disdain, then revealed a small secret.
"You three are definitely responsible for Qin Gang being beaten last night. I've already asked the owner of that massage parlor!"
As soon as he said this, the already pale faces of the three lost all color.
"If you don't want this responsibility to be added to yours, then you'd better obey obediently."
"Otherwise, I don't mind adding all of Qin Gang's current injuries to you."
This time, no one dared to make excuses.
A little over an hour later, Qin Chuan left the hospital. Before leaving, he specifically visited the director and talked for a long time.
Time flew by, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these three days, everything was calm.
Besides going to work, Qin Chuan occasionally visited his hospitalized second brother.
Perhaps because he had scolded him too harshly that day, Qin Er Ge threw a tantrum. Whenever Qin Chuan appeared, he would give him a cold shoulder, as if he didn't see him.
Qin Chuan chuckled inwardly but maintained an extremely cold and angry expression. If you ignore me, I'll ignore you. Let's see who lasts longer.
The reason he suddenly became so angry with his second brother had its own cause.
Ever since this second brother started following him, as his business grew, he became increasingly arrogant.
He indulged in excessive eating and drinking, frequented various entertainment venues.
He made many disreputable friends, spent money carelessly, often got into fights, and casually accepted dinner invitations.
Qin Chuan's business was growing larger and larger, and secretly, many people wanted to get close to him and establish a relationship.
Unable to find a way through Qin Chuan, they turned their attention to Qin Er Ge, looking for a breakthrough.
Qin Chuan was aware of all this and had always wanted to reprimand this unreliable second brother, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity.
This time, he seized the opportunity and exploded, scolding him severely.
So what if he was his brother?
His personality had always been such that he couldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes, otherwise, he wouldn't have been so decisive with his maternal relatives, even daring to confront his maternal grandparents.
In Qin Chuan's life, the closer his relatives, the more severely he would criticize them if they made mistakes, and the more he should remind them promptly to prevent them from going astray, by which time it would be too late.
He couldn't be bothered with unrelated people. It had nothing to do with him whether others were good or bad.
As for whether his relatives would resent him from then on, it depended on their own thoughts.
Perhaps his methods were a bit extreme, but that was just the way he was.
Another new day began, and Qin Chuan arrived at the electronics factory to handle some matters.
Just before noon, he suddenly received a call from Zheng Cheng Dao.
"Boss, Crow has been found!"
Qin Chuan's spirits immediately lifted, "Where?"
"A subordinate just reported that they saw Crow entering a small hotel with a girl."
Zheng Cheng Dao reported, "I want to ask for your instructions, should we apprehend him?"
"Arrest him! Why not?"
A cold light flashed in the depths of Qin Chuan's dark eyes.
"However, it's best to do it at night. If it causes too much commotion during the day, it might not be good."
"Understood, boss!"
Zheng Cheng Dao hung up the phone.
