"Miss Lu, you're out already!"
Cang Xuan walked towards the three of them, a look of surprise on his face.
After Cang Xuan came out of the building, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stayed outside to bandage the wound on his hand.
He hadn't expected that just as he finished bandaging his hand, Qin Yi and the other two would also be out.
Cang Xuan glanced into the building, not seeing Qu Shangbo and the others, and asked, "Why are only you three? Where are they?"
Perhaps it was because of what Cang Xuan had said earlier that made Lu Xiaoqing agree to Qu Shangbo. Lu Xiaoqing didn't answer his question at all.
Not only that, but she didn't give Cang Xuan a good look. She directly said to Qin Yi and Xiong Zhentian, "Let's go back first!"
The three of them bypassed Cang Xuan and left.
Cang Xuan was instantly displeased, and he snorted mockingly, "You got yourself a sugar daddy and think you've got it made?"
"Maybe one day he'll get tired of you and kick you to the curb. And you're putting on airs here? Hmph!"
Lu Xiaoqing's steps paused abruptly. She turned back and said, "Master Cang, I think you've misunderstood. I am not with Qu Shangbo, and I have no relationship with him. I don't now, and I never will!"
"Heh heh..."
Cang Xuan chuckled, completely disbelieving her.
If Lu Xiaoqing hadn't agreed to Qu Shangbo, could she have come out safely?
Xiong Zhentian, seeing him laugh, couldn't help but say, "I thought you were quite capable before. Turns out you couldn't even take one move from them and ended up with a broken hand..."
"I advise you to go to the hospital quickly. If you're too late, your hand will be completely crippled!"
The smile on Cang Xuan's face vanished instantly. A palpable rage erupted from him: "You're courting death!"
Xiong Zhentian felt it and instinctively flinched behind Qin Yi: "What do you want? I'm telling you, Mr. Qin just crippled Qu Zhongyi and Qu Zhongren on the rooftop. If you dare to make a move, you'll regret it!"
"???"
Cang Xuan was stunned for a moment.
Then, as if he heard the biggest joke in the world, he burst into laughter.
"Haha... Him? Crippled Qu Zhongyi? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"
Qu Zhongyi was a minor Grandmaster. Even he wasn't an opponent for Qu Zhongyi, so Qin Yi crippling him was preposterous!
In his eyes, Qin Yi was just an ordinary person, not even a martial artist!
So, after laughing, Cang Xuan extended his uninjured hand towards Xiong Zhentian, intending to teach him a lesson.
Xiong Zhentian had already annoyed him last night, and now he was speaking disrespectfully to him. If he didn't teach him a lesson, he would really think he had a good temper!
As Cang Xuan's hand reached out, before it could touch Xiong Zhentian, it was caught by Qin Yi.
"Hmm?"
Cang Xuan raised an eyebrow and looked at Qin Yi.
The next moment, without saying another word, he tried to forcefully break free from Qin Yi's grip, intending to teach Qin Yi a lesson as well.
But what he never dreamed of was that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from Qin Yi's hand.
Finally, he used all his strength, but it was still no use. He couldn't break free.
Cang Xuan was dumbfounded!
Before he could say anything, Qin Yi, still holding his hand, delivered a lightning-fast kick to his stomach.
"Ah..."
Cang Xuan cried out in pain and immediately crouched down to the ground.
Qin Yi then released his hand. He squatted on the ground, clutching his stomach, his face flushed with pain.
He couldn't even speak.
Qin Yi, Lu Xiaoqing, and Xiong Zhentian walked past him.
As Xiong Zhentian left, he spat on the ground next to Cang Xuan. Cang Xuan was so enraged that he was seething, wanting to kill Xiong Zhentian. However, the intense pain in his abdomen made him unable to even stand, let alone make a move against Xiong Zhentian.
Much later, after Qin Yi and the other two had left for a long time, Cang Xuan finally recovered somewhat and slowly stood up.
As soon as he stood up, he saw Qu Shangbo and several staff members from the building quickly coming out.
Two of the staff members were carrying someone on their backs.
Cang Xuan looked closely and realized that the two people on their backs were Qu Zhongyi and Qu Zhongren.
They were lying on the staff members' backs, looking injured. Especially Qu Zhongren, blood was constantly flowing from his mouth, staining the staff members' backs red!
Qu Zhongyi and Qu Zhongren were loaded onto a cart. Qu Shangbo, with red eyes, instructed a staff member, "Quick, take them to the hospital and get the best doctors to treat them!"
Then, Qu Shangbo said to Qu Zhongyi and Qu Zhongren, "Go to the hospital for proper treatment. Don't worry, your father will avenge you!"
"Father, capture that Qin fellow and I'll kill him with my own hands!"
Qu Zhongyi said with immense hatred, struggling to speak.
"Okay, okay! Your father promises!" Qu Shangbo agreed.
Afterward, Qu Zhongyi and Qu Zhongren were driven to the hospital by the staff members. Qu Shangbo, with red eyes, watched the car disappear.
He took out his phone and made a call: "Hey, second brother, immediately contact the heads of the Guo, Wang, and Li families. I have something important to discuss with them..."
As he spoke, he turned and went back into the building.
Cang Xuan stood not far away, watching all of this unfold. His expression became incredibly complex.
His lips moved, and he murmured to himself, "How could they be injured? Could it be, could it be that they were really..."
He stopped before finishing his sentence, shock and disbelief filling his entire being.
...
After leaving Shangbo Building, Lu Xiaoqing, along with Qin Yi and Xiong Zhentian, didn't return to the hotel. Instead, she drove them back to her home.
Before today, in Lu Xiaoqing's heart, her relationship with Qin Yi was merely one of superior and subordinate, and with Xiong Zhentian, it was at most that of colleagues.
But today, Qin Yi had helped her, and Lu Xiaoqing now regarded Qin Yi as her great benefactor. Her impression of both of them had improved dramatically, so she invited them back to her home.
Lu Xiaoqing stated that to thank Qin Yi for his help today, she would personally cook a meal to entertain them.
Lu Xiaoqing had been forging her path in Ning City for many years and owned several companies. She was quite well-off.
Therefore, Lu Xiaoqing lived in a high-end residential complex in Ning City.
"Divine King, Brother Bear, I live with my mother..."
As they arrived at the complex and walked towards the house, Lu Xiaoqing introduced them to the two: "My mother had a serious illness a few years ago, which left her paralyzed in the lower half of her body and made it difficult for her to speak. Please don't mind if you meet her later!"
"What's there to mind!" Xiong Zhentian said instinctively, "Your mother is paralyzed, that's perfect, the Divine King can heal..."
Before he could finish, Qin Yi gave him a look, interrupting him.
Qin Yi knew what Xiong Zhentian was trying to say. The latter knew about his excellent medical skills and wanted to offer help with treatment.
However, he hadn't even seen the person yet and had no idea about Lu Xiaoqing's mother's condition. If Xiong Zhentian said such things now, and he couldn't cure her later, how would Lu Xiaoqing view him?
