Chapter 651 A Twist of Fate
"Second Young Master, be careful!" the woman in black suddenly cried out in alarm.
Qin Leilei received the signal and barely dodged the flying knife with a sidestep, but a bloody mark was left on his face.
The throwing knife was pinned to a wooden post not far away. Everyone turned to look at the door and saw a man dressed in dark red clothes walk in, followed by a group of men in black suits.
At first glance, everyone who came in had a solid stance and an aggressive demeanor, as if the words "They're up to no good" were written all over their faces.
The other side had a large number of people, and Qin Leilei had just exhausted too much energy, so he stopped fighting, and the two burly men did not come forward again.
Qin Leilei recognized the man in red, and narrowed her eyes, which held a mixture of emotions: "Baiyi?"
Ranked third among dark web assassins, Tang Zhi's personal bodyguard.
Bai Yi nodded slightly: "I am grateful that you still remember me, Second Young Master."
"You're not following Tang Zhi, but getting involved in my Qin family's affairs..." He stopped mid-sentence, realizing his mistake, and abruptly turned to Qin Yiyi: "Heh, I was wondering where you got the manpower to control my subordinates, but now it seems you've colluded with the Tang family?"
Qin Yiyi hadn't expected Tang Zhi's men to rush in. She gritted her teeth, frowned, and snapped at Bai Yi, "What are you doing in here? I'm inside. Didn't I tell your men to guard the outside?!"
Bai Yi said calmly, "Miss Qin, you are too slow. I really can't wait any longer. But it seems that I came in at the right time. If I had come any later, you would not have been able to control the Second Young Master."
Qin Yiyi thought about how Qin Leilei had fought four opponents without showing any signs of weakness, and gritted her teeth inwardly: "You can't just leave like this..."
"Qin Yiyi!" Qin Xuan suddenly spoke sharply, his eyes wide with fury: "Who gets the position of head of this family is ultimately a matter for our Qin family. How could you collude with outsiders to deal with your brother!"
“That’s right, Yiyi, no matter how much trouble there is at home, it’s a family matter. But what you’re doing now is colluding with outsiders and showing no respect for the Qin family’s reputation. What right do you have to be the head of the Qin family?” Uncle Bai was also furious.
Qin Yiyi was also a little flustered. According to her plan, the Tang family members were arranged to stay outside. She only needed to control Qin Leilei's men and didn't need to show her face at all.
But at this moment, Baiyi was directly exposed in front of everyone, which was tantamount to putting her on a hot grill. Even if she wanted to get down, she couldn't!
With a determined look, she said to the people around her, “My uncles and elders are too emotional and are shouting loudly. I’m afraid they’ll disturb my father’s memorial tablet. Someone, gag them.”
After the Tang family arrived, Qin Yiyi had the advantage of having more people.
Qin Xuan and the others dared not resist. He opened his mouth to continue cursing, but before he could utter a word, one of Qin Yiyi's men grabbed a dirty rag and stuffed it into his mouth, along with Uncle Bai's.
They tried to struggle, but the other party quickly tied them up with rope, turning them into a dumpling.
Seeing that the most prestigious members of the Qin family were dealt with for a single disagreement, the others felt uneasy and no one dared to speak for a moment.
Bai Yi stood beside Qin Yiyi and said calmly, "There's still one Second Young Master Qin left. What are your plans, Miss Qin?"
Qin Yiyi took a deep breath and looked at Qin Leilei, who was also surrounded by Baiyi's people.
Qin Leilei stared at her fiercely. Their eyes met, and he sneered, spitting out a mouthful of blood: "You can guard against thieves day and night, but it's hard to guard against thieves within your own ranks. It's my bad luck to have been defeated by you today, but as long as I live, I will make you pay for all the humiliation and setbacks you've caused me one day!"
Qin Yiyi frowned, clearly suppressing her anger.
Seeing this, Bai Yi said in a deep voice, "Miss Qin also heard what the Second Young Master said. Our Master Tang means that if we don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back in the spring breeze. We must eliminate future troubles."
Qin Yiyi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned her head: "You want me to kill someone?"
Bai Yi remained calm and composed: "Miss Qin must also know the principle of raising a tiger to cause trouble. Moreover, the Second Young Master Qin is even more ferocious than an ordinary tiger. Even if you lock him up, he will scratch you with his claws sooner or later."
Qin Yiyi's expression wavered: "But he is, after all, my second brother..."
"Ha, Miss Qin treats him like a second brother, but after today, will he still treat you like a younger sister?"
Bai Yi's voice struck Qin Yiyi's heart with every word.
Yes, things have come to this point, exceeding her expectations.
As long as Qin Leilei is alive, the flames of support for him and opposition to him will never be extinguished.
Even if she takes pity on him and spares his life today, will he be grateful to her?
She knew perfectly well that if she didn't, he would still be watching her like a hawk, ready to retaliate at any moment.
From this day forward, there will be no more "brother and sister" between them!
She pondered for a long time, then steeled her heart and made up her mind, saying, "Okay, then it's your way..."
"Let's see who dares to lay a hand on me!"
Qin Yiyi was interrupted by a powerful voice before she could finish speaking.
She looked up in a daze and saw that the person who had been lying in the coffin had actually sat up. He was being helped and walked towards them step by step.
She froze, then took two steps back in disbelief: "Father?!"
When Qin Cheng appeared, everyone was stunned.
After a moment of silence, the people below were filled with panic.
"W-What's going on? Has the corpse come back to life?!"
"Isn't this the patriarch's mourning hall? Or am I seeing things?!"
"The patriarch is still alive?!"
Not only were the voices below filled with surprise and doubt, but even Baiyi frowned.
Qin Cheng was still alive, which made things a bit tricky.
Originally, relying solely on his own people to take advantage of the internal strife within the Qin family would have been enough to subdue Qin Leilei and his group. However, if Qin Cheng were still alive, given his prestige, it's feared that these members of the Qin family would reunite.
As for the Tang family members he brought, it remains to be seen who will emerge victorious.
unless……
He looked at Qin Yiyi, who was in a daze beside him.
I wonder if we can still count on this Miss Qin.
Qin Leilei stared blankly as Qin Cheng walked to his side, momentarily dazed.
Qin Cheng then addressed the crowd, saying, "This is a matter for the Qin family. All bystanders, please step back!"
At this moment, Qin Leilei realized that the person standing next to him was really Qin Cheng, not some illusion, but his real, living father.
The man who helped Qin Cheng walk to him was in his early forties, with a buzz cut and a strong, muscular build.
Qin Leilei recognized the other person as Uncle Xu, who had always been by his father's side. Uncle Xu came from a legitimate martial arts family and his kung fu was no less than Qin Leilei's in his prime.
Sure enough, as soon as he got close, the Tang family members who were surrounding them started fighting with him, but they were quickly driven back by Uncle Xu.
Qin Leilei staggered a bit to regain his balance and turned to look at Qin Cheng.
"Good boy, you've suffered." Qin Cheng sighed.
Qin Leilei gritted her teeth and looked at Qin Cheng: "How could you..."
"It's a long story. Let's deal with the immediate issues first, and then I'll tell you slowly."
After Qin Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Qin Yiyi, who had just come out of his room and suddenly realized what had happened: "Yiyi, you have disappointed me too much."
Qin Yiyi trembled, her lips trembling as she stammered, "You, you weren't dead? Impossible, you're fake, it can't be!"
