After hanging up the phone, the woman surnamed Jiang asked puzzledly: "Young Master, do we really need to cooperate with the Qi Family? That kid may have some skills, but how could he possibly contend against our Luo Family?"
Luo Zongfang revealed a meaningful smile: "Just send a few worthless people to support the Qi Family, and Aunt Jiang, you call Uncle Feng to come with me to the Qin Family."
"Call Uncle Feng?" The woman surnamed Jiang was startled.
The so-called Uncle Feng was the Luo Family's trump card, a genuine top-tier expert who usually would not take action.
However, because Uncle Feng had always held Luo Zongfang in high regard, believing that Luo Zongfang would ultimately become the successor of the Luo Family, he usually had close dealings with Luo Zongfang.
Uncle Feng had no son of his own, and often regarded Luo Zongfang as his son.
No matter what, Uncle Feng was indeed a top-tier expert, but sending him to deal with the Qin Family seemed like overkill.
Luo Zongfang patted the shoulder of the woman surnamed Jiang: "Aunt Jiang, sometimes we must act decisively. With the Qi Family attracting that kid's firepower, we can go talk to Qin Hanzhong, and many things will become much easier."
Upon hearing this, the woman surnamed Jiang's eyes lit up: "Alright, I understand."
Qin Family.
Qin Hanzhong knew Luo Zongfang was too cunning and would definitely come to deal with him, so he secretly released Qin Wu.
Qin Wu didn't understand why Qin Hanzhong suddenly let him out, puzzled: "Godfather, I really didn't touch Stepmother."
Qin Hanzhong smiled bitterly, patting Qin Wu's shoulder: "That's not important now. Take Lanlan and leave the Qin Family immediately, go find Ye Guichen, and run as far as you can. Remember, do it quietly and don't stop for anyone, understand?"
Qin Wu froze, realizing something major must have happened, and urgently asked: "Godfather, what's going on? Is our Qin Family in danger? Tell me, I can't just watch you face the risks alone!"
"Enough talk!" Qin Hanzhong shouted angrily: "If you don't leave now, are you going to watch Mi Lan die with the Qin Family?"
At the mention of Mi Lan, Qin Wu's lips twitched.
Although he didn't understand what was happening to the Qin Family, seeing Qin Hanzhong's demeanor, it seemed like a matter of life and death, and he nodded in agreement, planning to get Mi Lan to Ye Guichen first and then return to help Qin Hanzhong.
"Godfather, rest assured, with me around, no one can touch Lady Mi Lan." Qin Wu gritted his teeth, adding: "Unless I'm dead."
After speaking, he quickly went to Mi Lan's room.
Though Mi Lan was reluctant, she was promptly knocked out by Qin Wu, who then carried her out.
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, Qin Wu coincidentally encountered Ning Youlan.
"Qin Wu, how did you get out?" Ning Youlan had received a call from Luo Zongfang and knew he was coming. To prevent Mi Lan from escaping, she had come to watch. Seeing Qin Wu trying to take Mi Lan away, she panicked.
If Mi Lan left, Luo Zongfang would surely scold her upon arrival.
"Put Lanlan down quickly!"
"Someone, come quickly, Qin Wu the beast is trying to steal Lanlan!"
"Heavenly curse, not only does he disrespect me, his stepmother, he also disrespects Lanlan, what a bastard!"
Her shout soon attracted many people.
Most of these people already knew what Qin Wu had done, and upon hearing Ning Youlan, they surrounded Qin Wu.
"Qin Wu, you beast, are you even human!"
"Put Mi Lan down quickly!"
"If you don't, believe it or not, we'll chop you into pieces today!"
Among the crowd, Qin Feng was shouting the loudest.
Although he had some doubts about Qin Wu's actions, due to his usual good relationship with Ning Youlan, he preferred to believe her.
Moreover, if Qin Wu really stole Mi Lan, the Luo Family would hold him accountable, and he wouldn't be able to explain.
Qin Wu was sweating profusely out of anxiety.
He hadn't expected such a bad start.
"Young Master Feng, I, I have no other intentions. It's my godfather, my godfather asked me..."
"Damn, stop talking about dad!" Qin Feng was furious, kicking Qin Wu's stomach, making him stagger.
But Qin Wu did not resist, pleading: "Young Master Feng, it really is my godfather's intention. Please don't stop me!"
"Damn it, still being stubborn now, beat him!" Qin Feng wouldn't listen to Qin Wu, calling for people to come forward and beat Qin Wu violently.
Though Qin Wu had strong martial arts skills, he didn't fight back, continuing to plead even after being beaten to near unconsciousness.
Ning Youlan saw this, and with a cold smile, snatched a long knife from someone's hand and stabbed it towards Qin Wu's stomach.
"Stop!"
Seeing the knife about to stab into Qin Wu's stomach, a furious shout rang out.
Everyone turned their heads at the sound.
Qin Hanzhong came rushing over in anger.
"Dad, that beast Qin Wu..." Qin Feng was just about to claim credit but was shut up by a slap from Qin Hanzhong.
"No matter how beastly he is, he is still your fifth brother!" Qin Hanzhong stepped forward and forcibly took the long knife from Ning Youlan's hand, coldly saying: "Youlan, what do you intend to do?"
Ning Youlan did not expect Qin Hanzhong to come at this time, looking flustered at first, but soon she threw herself into Qin Hanzhong's arms, crying: "Hanzhong, Hanzhong, look at that beast Qin Wu, not only did he humiliate me, he's trying to steal Mi Lan away. He's not human."
Ning Youlan cried with heartbreak, rousing the emotions of everyone else in the courtyard as if Qin Wu should die and be chopped to pieces.
"Kill Qin Wu!"
"Kill this beast!"
"He must die!"
Qin Hanzhong looked around, sighed deeply: "Lock Qin Wu in the dungeon, put Lanlan back in bed, send more people to watch her, and don't let her be kidnapped again."
The collective anger couldn't be ignored.
In these circumstances, if Qin Hanzhong insisted on his way, it would surely trigger widespread wrath.
Although Qin Hanzhong was the Family Head, the Qin Family was not an autocracy.
If the uncles and elders found out, he might not remain Family Head.
Ning Youlan's lips curled into a cunning smile: "Hanzhong, Qin Wu's evil heart is still intact, you mustn't let him go!"
"We'll discuss it later." Qin Hanzhong looked at the now unconscious Qin Wu, his brows tightly knitted, feeling complex emotions.
He turned and walked out of the courtyard, his mind in chaos.
"What to do?"
It seemed the situation had reached an impasse.
But just as he feared the worst.
Someone reported from outside: "Luo Zongfang is here."
Qin Hanzhong's face changed dramatically.
In that moment, Luo Zongfang led a man and a woman into Qin Hanzhong's sight.
"Haha, Father-in-law, I didn't expect you to come out personally to greet me!" Luo Zongfang cupped his hands towards Qin Hanzhong: "It truly brings me immense honor!"
