The power struggles within wealthy families are no less intense than those in ancient imperial palaces.
Cruel and bloody.
For the position of family head, for the sake of personal gain, all talk of blood ties and kinship is nonsense.
It is not uncommon for brothers to quarrel and kill each other.
Qin Huai, who considered himself unlucky, thus became the most envied person in the entire elite circle of playboys in the capital.
Mentioning Qin Huai would make all the spoiled young masters grit their teeth in hatred, and they would sarcastically say that he had no real skills and was just born into a good family.
Xiang Dongchen's father is Nanbo Wan of Chongcheng, a powerful regional official with astonishing influence.
How glamorous and dazzling it appears on the surface!
In reality, he was just a loser, banished from the capital and forbidden from ever returning.
Even after retirement, they must stay in Chongqing to live out their old age.
Even the dead cannot enter the Xiang family ancestral hall.
As a son, Xiang Dongchen naturally couldn't return to Beijing.
It's not just Xiang Dongchen.
This branch of the Xiang family was essentially exiled.
Thus, returning to the capital became an obsession for the Xiang family father and son.
Unfortunately, arms can't beat thighs, and they had no chance.
For Xiang Dongchen, Qin Huai's promise was a world-changing event.
A light called hope will illuminate the heart of winter morning.
If someone were to ask me now, "Do you believe in light?"
Xiang Dongchen would definitely say, "I not only believe in light, but I also believe that as long as I can return to Beijing, I'll show you light."
"Young Master Qin."
Xiang Dongchen suddenly stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Qin Huai: "My life, Xiang Dongchen's life, belongs to you from now on."
This is submission, surrender, and even more so, striving.
Qin Huai waved his hand with a smile: "Alright, I swear on my honor as the sole heir of the Qin family that I will definitely bring you back to the capital within three years. Get up."
Xiang Dongchen didn't move.
"Get up, what are you doing? Still not satisfied?"
"no……"
Xiang Dongchen said with difficulty, "My back is injured, I can't straighten up, can you lend me a hand?"
Qin Huai: "..."
This guy's back is so weak, how can he be of any use?
I suddenly feel a little regretful.
He stood up from the black snake sitting next to Dong Chen, raised his hand, and exerted a slight force.
Click!
"Oh my."
Xiang Dongchen let out a strange cry, then straightened up, touched his waist, and then twisted it excitedly: "All done! Big brother, you're awesome!"
Black Snake remained calm and said, "From now on, call me 'brother,' don't use the 'old' part anymore. I'm still single..."
"Being single is great! I'll take care of your happiness for the rest of your life, brother!" Xiang Dongchen patted his chest loudly.
"Alright..."
The black snake seemed a little melancholy.
Getting old is fine, as long as you're happy.
After three rounds of dishes and five rounds of wine,
Qin Huai looked at everyone and smiled, "Since there are no outsiders here, I won't stand on ceremony. Young Master Xiang, are you confident in managing the Broken Blade Society from now on?"
"ah?"
Xiang Dongchen was startled: "How dare I compete with Madam Ye..."
"Sister Ye will gradually give up everything else and focus on taking care of the child."
"Oh~"
Xiang Dongchen gave a melodious "oh" and gave Qin Huai a thumbs up: "Young Master Qin is indeed worthy of being called Young Master Qin."
Wei Shengnan suddenly said, "I think the Broken Blade Society should be disbanded."
All eyes turned to Wei Shengnan, but she didn't care; she just looked at Qin Huai.
Qin Huai took a sip of wine and patiently explained, "Captain Wei, where there's light, there's darkness. I've told you before, this is unavoidable. Its existence is its own justification. If the Broken Blade Society disbands, do you think a new underground force won't emerge?"
“Chongcheng has now stabilized. If the Broken Blade Society were to disappear, there would be renewed conflict and chaos, which would not be good for the people of Chongcheng.”
"The Thunder Dragon Society of Rongcheng has made the underground forces of Chongcheng its primary target. Why? Because the three forces are mutually restraining and cannot truly unite as one, which gives the Thunder Dragon Society the opportunity to defeat them one by one."
"After the Broken Blade Society and the Mountain-Shaking Mountain Alliance merge, the Thunder Dragon Society will be wary, and it will also be a guarantee for the safety of Chongcheng. What do you think?"
Wei Shengnan did not speak again.
She hated evil and was disgusted by the existence of underground forces.
But Qin Huai had already said it, and what he said did make sense, so I couldn't be bothered to refute it anymore.
After all, as Qin Huai said, existence is its own justification, and underground forces have never truly disappeared throughout history.
"Young Master Xiang, are you confident in handing over the Broken Blade to you?" Qin Huai asked Xiang Dongchen again.
"certainly!"
Xiang Dongchen replied without hesitation, "How big is Chongcheng? Zhenshanyue can be managed perfectly without my personal involvement. With the Broken Blade Society, it's easy to handle. Even if Shuangfeiyan comes along, I can manage it with ease and strategize."
"You speak idioms so fluently, are you preparing for graduate school?"
Qin Huai laughed and scolded, "Don't think about Shuang Fei Yan for now, I'll figure something out."
"Boss, that lady called, is she offering to pay me to go? Are you going? Are you going? Are you going?"
At that moment, Qin Huai's cell phone rang.
The crowd looked at him strangely.
Especially Wei Shengnan.
His expression remained unchanged, but his eyes were full of disdain.
Seeing that it was an unknown number, Qin Huai got up and went to the next room before answering the phone.
"Never Sleeps".
A deep red, icy voice reached Qin Huai's ears: "Your mission is over."
"???" Qin Huai was full of questions.
What does it mean when a mission is completed?
