Chapter 17: The Qin Family Gets Beaten Twice

"Urgent matter." Nan Gong Yu cut off Gu Qinghe's words, lifted his foot and left.

The bodyguards waiting at the edge of the banquet hall followed in unison, a massive crowd of dozens.

This display of presence and aura naturally became the focus of the entire banquet hall.

Some knew him, and some did not.

Those who didn't know him only saw that he was handsome, his aura strong and his presence impressive.

Those who knew him whispered, "Why did Lord Nan Gong leave?"

"He must have couldn't stand this murky, melodramatic scene; it clouded his eyes!"

"Nan Gong Madam and Song Madam have a good relationship; we originally thought their families would definitely form a marriage alliance. Now it seems… Lord Nan Gong doesn't regard Song Huan Yan at all."

"Their families are long out of the question. Haven't you seen the Leng family is also involved? Lord Nan Gong has been involved with the Leng heiress for over half a year; although the engagement was somehow called off, the two probably still have lingering feelings."

"In short, the Song family's face is not looking so good today."

Leng Bai Wei's gaze only turned after Nan Gong Yu left.

She then turned to Leng Jian Yue and said, "Brother, Song Huan Yan previously refused the marriage alliance because she was involved with a Phoenix Man. It's become such an ugly mess, her face is completely ruined."

When Song Huan Yan and Qin Zi Mo were dating, the Song family did not announce it publicly; they only said Song Huan Yan refused a marriage alliance, so only a few people knew.

Moreover, Qin Zi Mo wanted to maintain a single persona, so their relationship was a secret romance.

"From now on," Leng Bai Wei lifted her wine glass and swayed it, "she's become someone's matriarch, and today this incident inevitably gets brought up. Was it because of a 'happy birthday' breakup, or because she despised the poor and loved the rich for fun, or simply a change of heart? That's a matter of perspective."

Leng mother Liu Hong Ying said, "Say a few fewer words."

Leng Bai Wei looked at Leng Jian Yue and said, "I'm thinking for my brother. Brother, do you really want to form a marriage alliance with her? Play keyboard warrior?"

Leng Jian Yue instantly darkened his face, turned and scolded, "Control your temperament a bit!"

Leng Bai Wei set down her wine glass, "I was just stating my opinion. Could it be that big brother was blinded by her looks?"

Leng Jian Yue, displeased, said, "Just mind your own business, and worry less about my affairs."

Leng Bai Wei shrugged and said nothing.

The Qin family members were forcibly dragged away by the bodyguards, dumped at the hotel entrance, and beaten up.

What a loss of face!

Qin Zi Mo was so angry his lungs felt like they would explode; he raised his hand and smacked Li Jianye's butt repeatedly, "Who let you come up? Who let you pinch Yan Yan! Who taught you that?"

After all, Li Jianye was only a little over five years old, and he was beaten into a miserable sob.

Qin Jiao Jiao, pained for her son, stepped forward to protect, "Brother, that's enough, enough, don't be angry. Jianye just wants you to reconcile with your sister‑in‑law, he's trying to help."

Qin Zi Mo shouted angrily, "You all spoiled him; today I'm going to give him a good lesson!"

Li Peilan was also furious beyond measure.

With the Billionaire Daughter‑in‑Law gone, the easily attainable wealth and glory vanished, and the whole village's path disappeared!

So angry she was that her heart burned, she turned and struck Li Zihang, "What's wrong with you? Weren't you told to keep the child in check? Why did you let him go on stage to cause trouble?"

Li Zihang, dodging, explained, "Mom, can't you see? Song Huan Yan won't want big brother anymore!"

Li Peilan, furious, slapped his face, "Nonsense! Yan Yan loves Qin Zi Mo so much; they were each other's first love, how could she not want him! If she doesn't want Qin Zi Mo, does she want you? Our family's eight generations of blessings, and Qin Zi Mo only dated a rich lady! You don't expect them to reconcile, what are you so worried about?! Yan Yan is just throwing a tantrum, angry that Qin Zi Mo didn't say happy birthday, she thinks all rich daughters are like that, just need to be coaxed! What are you babbling here, be careful I tear your mouth apart!"

At that moment, Nan Gong Yu happened to exit the hotel with his bodyguards and saw this scene.

He passed by the Qin family members.

Qin Jiao Jiao suddenly said, "Brother, it's this man!"

Nan Gong Yu's steps halted.

Qin Jiao Jiao was extremely angry; she herself was beaten, her son was beaten, even her husband was beaten!

This clearly is Qin Zi Mo himself who made Song Huan Yan unhappy and wanted to break up with him; what does it have to do with her family?

So the resentment in her heart had nowhere to vent, and she pointed directly at Nan Gong Yu, "It's him! Sister‑in‑law saw that he has more power and status, so she dumped you and fell for him!"

Nan Gong Yu's steps came to a complete stop.

Qin Zi Mo looked at Nan Gong Yu; the man exuded an innate noble aura, standing there like a king's presence.

Indeed, he seemed even a fraction more outstanding than Qin Zi Mo.

Qin Zi Mo said nothing.

A bodyguard beside Nan Gong Yu stepped forward and slapped Qin Jiao Jiao, shouting, "My master was just passing by, and you've smeared him twice! Do you really want to die?"

The Qin family members were startled.

Nan Gong Yu coldly gestured to the nearby bodyguard, "Give them a proper welcome."

After saying that, he left.

The Qin family members were beaten again.

Li Peilan fainted from anger, and only then did the bodyguard withdraw his hand.

Qin Zi Mo hurried to call for emergency aid.

When the convoy arrived, Qin Zi Mo was stunned, such a grand display—who was this man?

Could it be that Song Huan Yan really… no, impossible.

Song Huan Yan loves him; she loves him deeply!

Given her family background, she should have already found a wealthy man.

She's just angry that he didn't wish her happy birthday; indeed, he was negligent.

In the past, on Song Huan Yan's birthdays when there was no banquet, he would actively plan, trying every way to win her favor and make her happy.

This time he even forgot to say happy birthday, didn't prepare a gift, only bought this pair of Engagement Rings.

So people do change; it can be seen in the smallest details.

Watching Nan Gong Yu's overwhelming display, Qin Zi Mo couldn't help but ask, "Who is he?"

Qin Jiao Jiao, bruised and swollen, said irritably, "He's the hotel owner, just surnamed Nan Gong!"

Qin Zi Mo, furious, turned and slapped Qin Jiao Jiao, "You dare casually cling to someone like this? I think you've eaten too much and want to die! This is Kyoto! Do you think it's a countryside? Just because you act unruly can you make others give you any leeway? Foolish thing, behave properly in Kyoto, or you won't even know how your life ends!"

Qin Jiao Jiao was so angry that she couldn't even cry.

Here, a woman stepped out of Nan Gong Yu's motorcade, dressed as a secretary, in a black suit and black skirt, a pair of black stockings, stylish and delicate.

"Lord Nan Gong." The woman bowed deeply to Nan Gong Yu, opening the rear door.

Nan Gong Yu, surrounded by adoring gazes, alighted from the car with an air of delicate nobility.

The woman then also entered the car and took the passenger seat.

The bodyguard went to the driver's seat to start the car, but couldn't help saying, "Miss Song's eyesight really isn't great; she even chose such a boyfriend, truly a top‑notch family. And it got you involved twice."

Speaking of it, his Head of the Family also suffered; it was bad enough to be inexplicably shot at, and then he was sniped twice…

Nan Gong Yu opened the file without even raising his eyelids and said coldly, "Speak ill of others behind their backs."

After speaking, he lifted his eyelids; the gold‑rimmed glasses reflected a chilling aura.

The bodyguard glanced at the rearview mirror, trembled in fright, and hastily slapped himself, "Yes, I'm sorry, Lord Nan Gong."

"Go receive your punishment yourself." Nan Gong Yu lowered his eyelids.
