Chapter 404: Chapter 403 Qin Yanyang Goes Berserk
At the airport, beside the Tong Family’s private jet, Yang Fei said to Tong Yunshu, "I have very important matters to attend to, and it’s not convenient to take you with me..."
Seeing a flash of sadness in Tong Yunshu’s eyes, he knew he had said the wrong thing and quickly tried to make amends, "Qin Yanyang is also in trouble and there might be major issues; she isn’t going either. The funeral for Second Uncle won’t be held for now; wait for my message."
Tong Yunshu, not one to get angry, felt somewhat despondent that Yang Fei was going to face such a big issue without her, but when she heard that Qin Yanyang wasn’t going either, the bit of loss in her heart dissipated, and instead, she asked with concern, "What could have happened to her?"
"It’s a long story, and I don’t know the details yet, but the situation is definitely not optimistic. You need to be careful as well," said Yang Fei, looking at Tong Yunshu with a hint of worry. "You are all very important to me; now that Second Uncle is implicated, I’m afraid you might be too..."
"Don’t worry, I’ll be careful. Even if I get implicated because of you, I’ll have no regrets," Tong Yunshu interrupted, speaking with resolve in her eyes.
Moved by her words, Yang Fei gave her a deep look and then noticed that her strength seemed to have improved after many days of not seeing her, causing him a silent shock.
The Great Yellow Court of the Tong Yan indeed had some mysterious and miraculous aspects to it. Furthermore, Tong Yunshu’s ability to inherit the Great Yellow Court was astonishing. Given time, she might catch up to Tong Yan and, with his help and guidance, even far surpass Tong Yan, reaching heights Tong Yan couldn’t even imagine.
"I have to go now. Take care of yourself, cultivate diligently, and strive to become stronger," Yang Fei said.
Tong Yunshu took the words "strive to become stronger" very seriously and nodded, "I will try my best. Be careful on your trip, remember to contact me if anything happens, I will miss you."
Yang Fei nodded, and at that moment, the plane was ready to take off, so they waved goodbye to each other.
Closing the cabin door, the plane slowly moved toward the runway for takeoff.
...
Within the Binhai University campus, Zhu Wenjie hurriedly found Yang Wen, and only at the sight of her did he completely relax.
"Come with me," Zhu Wenjie said to Yang Wen.
Yang Wen was startled and asked in confusion, "Come with you, to where? Where is Bingqing?"
"Xia Bingqing is not here; your brother might be in trouble, you need to hide first," Zhu Wenjie said.
Yang Wen’s expression drastically changed upon hearing this, "My brother is in trouble? What kind of trouble?"
As she said this, she took out her mobile phone, intending to call Yang Fei, but Zhu Wenjie stopped her, "Don’t disturb him while he’s working. Just trust me, that’s enough. I won’t harm you."
Yang Wen was dubious, but she knew that Zhu Wenjie wouldn’t harm her, and wanting to know what trouble her brother had gotten into, she left the campus with Zhu Wenjie.
After Zhu Wenjie picked up Yang Wen, he immediately called his grandfather’s number and reported, "Grandfather, the person is safely picked up. Where should we wait for you? Okay, uh-huh, don’t worry. Unless I die, I won’t let her get hurt."
Hearing him say this, Yang Wen couldn’t help but change her expression drastically, exclaiming in surprise, "Senior Wenjie, what exactly happened?"
...
The Binhai Military Department’s sub-branch base.
After sending Yang Fei off, Qin Yanyang promptly returned to the depths of the base.
Zhang Zhaoen and the six subordinates he brought with him were still surrounded in the chamber where Qin Yanyang and Yang Fei had been in a closed-door session earlier.
When Qin Yanyang arrived, Zhang Zhaoen was still loudly berating Qin Yanyang’s subordinates, "Damn it all, do you know what you are doing? I am the Deputy Director of the Military Department; you are members of the Military Department, yet you dare to attack a colleague and detain an officer? Step aside immediately, or else letting a wanted criminal escape would mean Minister Qin will be penalized as well. No one can bear such a huge responsibility."
Qin Yanyang’s aide, without saying a word, also flashed a look of concern in his eyes.
They hadn’t stopped it before because Zhang Zhaoen had a warrant from the Military Department’s headquarters, and since Qin Yanyang was in the secret chamber, they didn’t have enough time to report before Zhang Zhaoen barged in with his men.
Now that Qin Yanyang had defied orders, had taken action against Zhang Zhaoen, and was keeping him and others under control, the aide and his people realized the seriousness of the situation.
But they were Qin Yanyang’s subordinates and part of the Qin family faction, so at this moment, they could only follow Qin Yanyang’s lead.
"Heh, quite the arrogance," Qin Yanyang’s ice-cold voice came through.
Members of the Binhai Military Department instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Qin Yanyang return, Zhang Zhaoen was immediately furious, "Bastard, Qin Yanyang, do you know what you’re doing? How dare you help a fugitive escape? You’ve committed a grave crime. Call your people off at once! If that kid really gets away, you won’t be able to bear the consequences."
Qin Yanyang was not the least bit intimidated, coldly staring at Zhang Zhaoen, "A fugitive? Since when did a fugitive appear here?"
"Yang Fei is the one," Zhang Zhaoen angrily said, "This is an arrest warrant, are you blind?"
"Sorry, you didn’t show this arrest warrant before, I didn’t see it. And Yang Fei is my husband, which is known to everyone. As far as I know, he abides by the law and has done nothing wrong. When did he suddenly become the fugitive you speak of?"
Qin Yanyang coldly said, "Zhang Zhaoen, you’re defaming me. Would you believe me if I said I’ll take you to military court?"
"It’s you who should be taken to military court, Qin Yanyang. Do you really think that just because you are a daughter of the Qin Family you can do as you please? Let me tell you, the Military Department is a vital asset of the country, and it must not fall into the hands of someone like you," Zhang Zhaoen shouted loudly.
Qin Yanyang frowned slightly, her voice cold, "Someone like me? I’ve been fighting and winning battles for the nation since I was fifteen. What are you, Zhang Zhaoen, to criticize and slander me?"
"Are you really determined to go against everyone’s wishes, Qin Yanyang?" Zhang Zhaoen stared at Qin Yanyang, his eyes filled with anger, not backing down, the atmosphere was tense and hostile.
But he and his subordinates had been disarmed. Although their aura was intimidating, they posed no threat to Qin Yanyang and her people.
Qin Yanyang was extremely annoyed about today’s incidents and naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it. Pointing to Zhang Zhaoen’s subordinates, she said, "Take them away, I want to interrogate them one by one."
"Qin Yanyang, you dare!" Zhang Zhaoen was furious, pointing at Qin Yanyang’s face and scolding, "I am a mighty general of the country, a Deputy Minister of the Binhai Military Department just like you, and I am here on orders. What right do you have to detain and interrogate my people?"
Looking at Zhang Zhaoen’s finger pointing at herself, Qin Yanyang calmly said, "Put down your finger."
Zhang Zhaoen laughed in anger, "What if I don’t?"
"Crack!"
Qin Yanyang’s move was lightning fast, as she snapped the finger immediately.
Zhang Zhaoen, a mighty Martial Arts practitioner himself, believed he wasn’t much weaker than Qin Yanyang. Yet he had been gravely injured by Qin Yanyang without even managing to fend off a single move earlier and now, thinking Qin Yanyang wouldn’t dare to hurt him, he was caught off guard by her audacity.
With his finger broken, he couldn’t help but grunt in pain and looked up angrily at Qin Yanyang.
Qin Yanyang raised her hand for a slap.
"Smack!"
Another unexpected hit, Zhang Zhaoen wanted to dodge, but he had not expected Qin Yanyang to move so quickly. The slap landed squarely and firmly on his face.
"Bang!"
Before Zhang Zhaoen could come to his senses, a severe pain in his abdomen came as he was kicked and sent flying by Qin Yanyang, his body crashing heavily against the thick walls of the detention room, feeling his innards nearly shattered.
The members of the Binhai Military Department watching this scene had their eyes wide open but at the same time felt reassured.
The Minister was so badass, she must be fine.
The people brought by Zhang Zhaoen were all red-faced, seething with anger but not daring to speak out.
This was so humiliating.
Both were Deputy Ministers; how could the gap be so huge?
Moreover, Zhang Zhaoen was much older than Qin Yanyang, old enough to be her father, and yet he was beaten up severely, which was truly shameful.
"Take them all away," Qin Yanyang’s aide-de-camp, very observant, immediately gave the order. Zhang Zhaoen’s people were all taken away, leaving only Qin Yanyang to ’interrogate’ him.
