Not only the Qin Corporation, but many people in Lingjin City were paying close attention to this news.

The car accident that had claimed Qin Donglai's life had also caused a huge stir in Lingjin City. What was originally thought to be an accident turned out to be the work of the Xue Family, and it even involved the Martial Association!

What shocked and puzzled them most was who could have forced them to kneel before the media and confess the truth. Who possesses such incredible power?

In the office, Qin Qiu clenched her fists tightly, veins throbbing on her forehead. The murderer of her father had finally been exposed; one could only imagine the storm of emotions she was feeling.

Meanwhile, having been repeatedly blamed by Xue Wenlong and Xue Gang, Huang Zhijie's face was ashen. He gritted his teeth in anger, but he was utterly powerless. This was all true, and with the Zhennan Prince right in front of him, what could he possibly do?

Huang Zhijie broke down, wailing as a sniveling mess, "I was foolish! I just wanted to buy a prescription from him. When he flatly refused, I got hot-headed and did this terrible thing!"

"I-I was wrong! I apologize to Qin Donglai, to the entire Qin Corporation, and to the Qin Family! I truly know I was wrong!"

Yang Hu signaled to the reporters that they could begin their questions.

A female reporter with glasses didn't mince words, getting straight to the point. "Since you are a Three-Bag Elder of the Martial Association, was this decision to murder made on your own, or does it represent the will of the entire Martial Association?"

"Of course…" Huang Zhijie blurted out. He obviously wanted to say it only represented him; if he dragged the Martial Association into this, he would be a dead man. But when he saw Yang Hu raise the gun in his hand and the wicked smile on his face, his heart lurched violently. He managed to stop the words just as they were about to leave his lips.

Then, he subconsciously changed his tune. "Of course… of course it represents the Martial Association! Everything I've done was for the benefit of the Martial Association!"

"If that's the case, this isn't the first time you've done something like this, is it?"

Huang Zhijie said no more. This question went beyond the answer the Zhennan Prince wanted, so he naturally wasn't foolish enough to reply. However, his silence at this moment was an answer in itself.

In an instant, a fierce outcry against the Martial Association erupted across Lingjin City.

「In the chairman's office of the Qin Corporation.」

Qin Qiu's expression shifted drastically. Unable to contain her rage, she started to rush out. "I'm going to kill them!"

"Chairman, please calm down!" Zhang Xiaowen hurriedly held Qin Qiu back, urging her, "It's come to this. They will inevitably face legal punishment! Besides, where would you even find them? You should be thinking about who found them and made them publicly confess their crimes to the media!"

In fact, Qin Qiu wasn't an impulsive person; she was simply too overcome with rage to think clearly.

Qin Qiu took a deep, shuddering breath and leaned on her desk for support, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face. After so long, justice had finally been served for her father.

"Chairman, you rest here. I'll send someone to the scene to verify the situation!"

Seeing Qin Qiu nod, Zhang Xiaowen finally breathed a sigh of relief and left the office.

「The Xue Family's courtyard.」

As the recording ended, Huang Zhijie pleaded desperately, "I-I was just following orders! Please be merciful and spare me!"

SNAP!

Chen Yang snapped his fingers and ordered Yang Hu, "Clear the area!"

"You got it!"

With a wide grin, Yang Hu told the reporters, "What happens next isn't for you to see. Get going!"

Everyone froze for several seconds, their minds already racing with possibilities.

Just how far are they planning to take this?

Curious as they were, no one dared to ask.

"Right! Write what you're supposed to write, and don't you dare touch a single word of what you're not! Understand?" Yang Hu warned.

All the reporters nodded frantically. Not daring to linger, they scrambled away.

***

Leaving the Xue Family's courtyard, Chen Yang drove off alone. In the car, he couldn't help but smile. The affair that had tormented Qin Qiu for over half a year was finally settled.

However…

The Martial Association!

Tracing it back, the ultimate culprit was the Martial Association. Whether Qin Qiu pursued the matter further didn't matter. Given Chen Yang's way of doing things, now that he knew, there was no way he would let it go.

I remember Qingqiu Dao has a branch of the Martial Association. By regional jurisdiction, Lingjin City falls under Qingqiu Dao's purview. Therefore, the order to kill Qin Donglai must have been passed down from the Qingqiu Dao Martial Association branch to Huang Zhijie! Then I'll start with the Qingqiu Dao branch!

Chen Yang flicked his cigarette butt out the window, his mind made up.

The enmity from a father's murder is irreconcilable. He would pursue this matter all the way to the Association President and demand an explanation. He wouldn't hesitate even if it meant going to war with the entire Martial Association.

Just as Chen Yang arrived at the Qin Corporation, news began to sweep through Lingjin City, creating a massive uproar. Huang Zhijie, Xue Gang, and several key members of the Xue Family had all committed suicide out of guilt.

Some celebrated the news, while others marveled at the jaw-dropping power of the person who had forced their hand.

"What? Committed suicide out of fear of punishment?" In her office, Qin Qiu stared at Zhang Xiaowen in disbelief.

Zhang Xiaowen was just as shocked. With a horrified expression, she said, "It's true!"

Qin Qiu was speechless.

Was it that mysterious person again?

The first person Qin Qiu thought of was the one who had helped her several times but refused to show his face.

Qin Qiu walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window, crossed her arms, and murmured softly, Who on earth are you?

"By the way, Chairman, why didn't Chen Yang come to work today?" Zhang Xiaowen asked curiously.

Hmm?

Qin Qiu frowned, and then her expression darkened. "Mark him down for an unexcused absence!"

The thought of that guy going to a club to chase women made her blood boil.
