She turned her head to look at Qin Yi, finding him grinning at her.
Clearly, Qin Yi had also overheard the staff's conversation.
Immediately, Han Xin shot Qin Yi a glare and, pulling him along, quickened their pace out of the company!
Outside, they had a meal, then went shopping. As the sky gradually darkened, time slipped by until it was evening.
Qin Yi also took the opportunity to explain the world of martial arts to Han Xin.
As a result, Han Xin had gained a lot throughout the day. Not only could she cultivate herself, but she also had a certain understanding of the martial arts world!
Around eight in the evening, Qin Yi felt they had spent enough time outside and began to think about heading home.
Along the way, taking advantage of Han Xin's good mood today, he intended to...
But unexpectedly, as Qin Yi was thinking this, before he could even speak, his phone in his pocket rang.
He pulled it out and saw it was Xiong Zhentian calling.
He answered, and upon hearing Xiong Zhentian's words, his walking footsteps suddenly stopped, and he blurted out, "Really? Alright, I understand. I'll come find you right away!"
Immediately after, he told Han Xin that he had something to attend to and couldn't accompany her anymore, as he had to go see Xiong Zhentian.
Seeing his strong reaction, Han Xin knew this matter was very important to him. She didn't ask further, only saying, "Qin Yi, I don't have anything else planned for tonight. If you don't mind, I can go with you!"
Hearing this, Qin Yi thought for a moment and said, "Alright, we'll go together!"
Not long after, the two arrived together at one of Xiong Zhentian's bars, where Xiong Zhentian was already waiting at the entrance.
Xiong Zhentian was surprised to see Han Xin, but quickly relaxed.
He was already aware of the relationship between Qin Yi and Han Xin.
Xiong Zhentian hurried forward and said, "Mr. Qin, Miss Han!"
For Qin Yi's sake, Xiong Zhentian was also very polite to Han Xin!
Han Xin nodded slightly in response.
Qin Yi, on the other hand, impatiently asked, "What did you find out?"
"Mr. Qin, Miss Han, please come in and sit down first. I'll tell you slowly!"
"Okay."
Moments later, Qin Yi and Han Xin entered a private room in the bar. They sat together, while Xiong Zhentian sat opposite them.
Sensing Qin Yi's urgency, Xiong Zhentian didn't waste any time and said, "Mr. Qin, you asked me to investigate a person named Qin Zhanlong last time. I have a clue..."
That's right, the reason Qin Yi had suddenly received a call from him earlier was because he had found a clue about Qin Zhanlong.
"What clue?"
Qin Yi's body involuntarily straightened up a bit.
"The father of one of my subordinates once saw Qin Zhanlong..." Xiong Zhentian said, "More accurately, the father of that subordinate was once dealt with by Qin Zhanlong!"
Qin Yi: "???"
"Go bring Xiao Tian and his old man in!"
Xiong Zhentian said to a subordinate standing behind him.
"Yes, Brother Xiong!"
In Qin Yi's puzzled gaze, the subordinate left the room and returned less than two minutes later, bringing with him a young man in his early twenties with dyed blond hair, and a middle-aged man sitting in a wheelchair, unable to walk.
The middle-aged man and the blond-haired young man looked very similar, clearly a father and son.
Besides being paralyzed in a wheelchair, the middle-aged man also had his head tilted, his eyes vacant and dull, as if he were an imbecile.
"Xiao Tian, tell Mr. Qin in detail again about what your father encountered back then. Don't miss a single word!" Xiong Zhentian said to the blond-haired young man.
"Yes, Brother Xiong!"
The blond-haired young man replied respectfully, turned to Qin Yi, and said, "About twenty-five or twenty-six years ago, my dad was a good-for-nothing scoundrel back then. One night, he wanted to bully a woman. Just as he was about to succeed, someone suddenly appeared and stopped him..."
At this point, the blond-haired young man subconsciously glanced at the middle-aged man in the wheelchair and continued with a complex tone, "When that person appeared, my dad initially paid him no mind and told him to get lost! When that person didn't move, my dad took out the dagger he was carrying and tried to stab him!"
"In such a situation, that person still didn't retreat. Finally, my dad really stabbed with the dagger, and that person didn't dodge or evade, just stood there and let my dad stab him!"
"But when my dad's dagger hit that person, he discovered that the person's body was like iron. Not only did it not cause any harm to that person, but my dad's dagger immediately bent!"
"Just as my dad was stunned in disbelief, that person reached out to the air with his right hand, and a bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere, striking my dad!"
"My dad was heavily injured and fell to the ground..."
"The person you're talking about, could it be Qin Zhanlong?"
Before the other party could finish speaking, Qin Yi couldn't help but interrupt and ask.
"En!" The blond-haired young man nodded heavily twice and replied, "That's right, that person was Qin Zhanlong!"
"This was over twenty years ago, and it was something your father experienced. How do you know it so clearly?"
Qin Yi subconsciously looked at the man's father in the wheelchair. If these words had come from the latter, he might have believed them a little more.
The blond-haired young man saw Qin Yi's thoughts and immediately said, "Mr. Qin, everything I'm saying is true! After this incident happened back then, my dad's legs were crippled, and his mind was also damaged!"
"He would mention this incident countless times every day, saying he met an immortal and that he was wrong..."
"It was only in the last few years, after seeing a doctor and undergoing treatment, that he got a little better and stopped mentioning it!"
"Mr. Qin, don't worry. If this weren't the case, he would absolutely not dare to lie to you!" Xiong Zhentian added from the side.
Qin Yi heard this and, after thinking for a moment, asked the blond-haired young man, "Then how did you know that person was Qin Zhanlong?"
"Because after my dad was struck down by the lightning, that person said one sentence: 'My name is Qin Zhanlong. If you're not convinced, you can come find me anytime!'" the blond-haired young man replied.
The blond-haired young man was originally a very ordinary subordinate of Xiong Zhentian, someone who didn't even have the privilege of seeing Xiong Zhentian.
This time, the other party had unintentionally overheard Xiong Zhentian investigating someone named Qin Zhanlong. Remembering the incident his father had encountered back then, being injured by someone named Qin Zhanlong, he reported it to Xiong Zhentian.
Qin Yi sat in his seat, his face displaying a mixture of surprise, confusion, and shock.
He was wondering how credible the blond-haired young man's words were! After all, everything the other party had just said was learned from his father!
His father was a fool, and what if a fool's words were just ramblings?
Xiong Zhentian sensed Qin Yi's emotions and said again, "Mr. Qin, I've also found out who the woman that Xiao Tian's father tried to bully back then was! Before you arrived, I had already sent people to look for her, and they should be back soon!"
"So, whether Xiao Tian's father's words are nonsense or true, we'll know when that woman arrives!"
