Not wanting to make things worse, Wang Qian hurriedly added, "Uncle, you've really misunderstood. My relationship with Yanping is completely innocent; there's nothing shameful about it."
His explanation only fueled Wu Qixuan's anger, "Stop saying such disgusting things, I don't want to hear it!"
Wang Qian immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
No explanation is equivalent to default.
Explanation is tantamount to sophistry.
Are you trying to kill us?
In a flash, he straightened his expression and said seriously, "Alright, since Uncle doesn't want to see me, then I'll leave. Goodbye!"
After saying that, he walked straight toward the door.
Sometimes, being overly proactive will only lead to being disliked.
However, taking a step back appropriately can help others calm down and set aside their prejudices and extreme emotions.
Sure enough, after he had only taken a few steps, Wu Qixuan, who was still furious, frowned slightly. "Kid, you didn't even explain yourself clearly, why are you running away?"
"Uncle, didn't you not want to see me?"
Wang Qian turned around and shrugged. "If I don't leave, am I supposed to stay here and act like a scoundrel?"
Wu Qixuan's expression froze.
He then realized that he might have really gone too far.
Wang Qian's expression was so serious, and he was sitting in his living room, so he couldn't possibly be as sordid as he imagined.
In addition, based on his previous investigation of Wang Qian's character, he found that although Wang Qian was ruthless and cold-blooded towards bad people, he was quite friendly and respectful towards his friends.
In particular, it is said that Wang Qian is very loyal to his wife at home, and even if many women take the initiative to throw themselves at him, he has never done anything out of line.
Thinking about it this way, he finally calmed down, but his face remained gloomy.
"Speak, what do you want from me?"
As he spoke, he sat down on the sofa in the living room, his expression solemn and dignified, exuding an air of authority without anger.
"Uncle, there are some things I only want to say to you in private!"
Wang Qian glanced around the living room and tentatively suggested, "How about we go for a walk?"
"Can't we talk about these things in front of Yanping?" Wu Qixuan asked somewhat reluctantly.
A barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashed in Wu Yanping's eyes.
But to accommodate Wang Qian, she still advised from the side, "Dad, it's really stuffy at home. It would be good to go out for a walk. Isn't there a park outside? It's quieter there."
Since Wu Yanping had said so, Wu Qixuan had no choice but to nod reluctantly, "Alright, then I'll go out and walk with you!"
With that, he got up and walked outside.
Wang Qian gave Wu Yanping a grateful look and followed her.
Wu Yanping remained in the living room, her face filled with reluctance.
If Wang Qian really wanted to persuade her father to invest in the Liu family's industrial park project, she almost already knew how it would end.
She had even prepared herself for the scene where her father would come back with a livid face and give Wang Qian a good scolding in front of her.
...
Perhaps because winter has arrived, the park, which is usually quite lively, is now deserted.
Only Wang Qian and Wu Qixuan walked slowly side by side on the cold stone path.
"Speak, what do you want from me?"
Wu Qixuan glanced at Wang Qian beside him, his eyes still filled with a hint of hostility.
He genuinely admired Wang Qian's business achievements.
However, Wang Qian became entangled with his daughter Wu Yanping, which made it impossible for him to appreciate Wang Qian.
"Uncle, do you believe that science can explain everything?"
Instead of getting straight to the point, Wang Qian asked a seemingly unrelated question.
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
Wu Qixuan was getting impatient. "Is the thing you want to discuss with me about science and metaphysics?"
"Why don't you answer my question first, Uncle?"
Wang Qian insisted, "Do you believe that there are things in this world that exist beyond the scope of scientific explanation?"
"A pointless question!"
Wu Qixuan pursed his lips, but seeing Wang Qian's serious expression, he casually replied, "I only believe in science. If you want to convince me to believe in those supernatural things, I advise you not to waste your breath, lest I despise you."
Wang Qian had anticipated this answer.
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Uncle, if I could prove that there is evidence in this world that transcends science?"
"What's wrong with you today?"
Wu Qixuan was a little angry. "You came all the way to my house just to talk nonsense with me?"
“I know that you, Uncle, must think I’m crazy if you didn’t see it with your own eyes, but…”
Wang Qian changed the subject and asked, "Is tomorrow December 7th?"
"What's going on tomorrow?" Wu Qixuan asked subconsciously.
Although he was thoroughly annoyed by Wang Qian's rambling and mystical talk, his subconscious curiosity still piqued his interest.
"Uncle, do you often watch the local TV news?" Wang Qian asked instead of answering.
"Yes, I saw it!"
Wu Qixuan said, "Businessmen should always pay attention to local news. It's one of the important clues to seizing business opportunities. How could I not read it?"
"Just watch!"
Wang Qian smiled slyly, "Tomorrow night at 6:32:42, our Nanming County radio station will broadcast a news report about missing persons."
How did you know?
Wu Qixuan frowned. "Could it be that the missing persons case be related to you?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Qian staggered.
Fearing that Wu Qixuan might have further negative associations, he could no longer maintain his mysterious facade and said directly, "I just want to prove to you that I possess the ability to foresee the future!"
"Foresight?"
Wu Qixuan blinked, then couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Wang Qian, it's one thing for you kids to joke around, but do you really want to take it out on me?"
"Uncle, I know you don't believe me, but you can wait and see tomorrow night!"
Recalling his memories from his previous life, he spoke eloquently: "Tomorrow night on the radio, at 6:32:42, the female host will read, 'According to our station, a six-year-old boy from Zhangjia Village, Nanming County, has been missing for two days and there has been no news of him. His family has reported him missing to the police. If anyone has any information, please call the number below the screen immediately.'"
He remembered this news so clearly because the missing child belonged to one of his hopeless relatives.
At this time in his previous life, although he had already left home, he always cared about everything in his hometown and paid special attention to news reports about Nanming County.
The evening news on December 7th will report on the disappearance of a six-year-old child.
Because the child was his relative's child, he remembered him quite vividly.
"Wang Qian, haven't you caused enough trouble?"
Wu Qixuan seemed to have reached his limit and angrily retorted, "I don't care what tricks you're playing, but if you're here today just to play tricks on me, you'd better leave before my patience reaches its limit."
