In the Qu Family, Elder Master Qu was furious. This was no trivial matter. One could infer that from the reactions of so many people present, all of them were silent as cicadas in cold weather.

"Dad, what are you…"

People of the Qu Family dared not speak up, but as the eldest son, Qu Zhenhang couldn't evade the situation and had to speak very cautiously.

It was clear that even now, he still hadn't fully understood the whole situation. Although he had doubts about the reason his son Qu Yuanliang had given, he couldn't say much without confirmed information.

"Ask your own son… What good deed has he done?"

Seeing Qu Zhenhang speak, Elder Master Qu's tiger-like eyes narrowed, and from those cloudy eyes emitted a series of intimidating sharp glints.

Qu Yuanliang thought his actions were very secretive, and knowing his father Qu Zhenhang's character very well, he covered up the past with a fabricated reason.

However, he didn't expect that Elder Master Qu, who had essentially stopped dealing with the family's affairs, knew every move of every member of the Qu Family like the back of his hand…

Especially after this incident occurred, Elder Master Qu had made everything clear, including the exact cause of the initial grudge between Qin Fang and Qu Yuanliang.

Even things Qu Zhenhang himself didn't know, Elder Master Qu was already aware of, which led to the current thunderous fury…

"Uh…"

Upon hearing this, Qu Zhenhang was immediately taken aback, his gaze instinctively shifting to his son Qu Yuanliang behind him.

Thud~~

The rosewood cane struck the ground once more with force, accompanied by the low roar of Elder Master Qu…

"Kneel down!"

Elder Master Qu's face turned red, his breathing seemed to become hurried, clearly his emotions were at their limit, and it appeared that he was showing signs of a heart attack.

Thump~~

Qu Yuanliang, already guilt-ridden, plus Elder Master Qu's long-established authority over the younger generation, caused Qu Yuanliang's knees to weaken as the cane struck down, and he instinctively knelt.

"Grandfather…"

But at this time, Qu Yuanliang couldn't remain silent. The man opposite was his own grandfather. Although always strict with their children and grandchildren, he never lacked affection for them.

Now that the truth had been revealed, continuing to stubbornly deny it would lead to a dead end. Qu Yuanliang quickly switched to playing the emotional card, looking pitifully at Elder Master Qu with tearful eyes, seemingly seeking sympathy.

"Don't call me! I don't have a grandson like you…"

Elder Master Qu was obviously very angry, even uttering such words, which immediately turned Qu Yuanliang's face deathly pale.

Because he was familiar with Elder Master Qu and knew his temper, especially now, in a fit of rage, if things weren't handled well, Elder Master Qu might really drive him out of the Qu Family.

Profligates like him could only be so arrogant and tyrannical because of the wealth and backing of the Qu Family. Without that, who would care about such a person…

For example, Brother San Shui, the big brother of the underworld, befriended Qu Yuanliang because Qu Yuanliang was rich and willing to spend money. If it were just an ordinary person, Brother San Shui wouldn't give them the time of day…

If Qu Yuanliang were driven out of the Qu Family, with Elder Master Qu's temperament, all his financial resources would certainly be cut off, and all his bank accounts frozen, leaving him penniless… surviving would be a major problem!

"Grandfather… I was wrong, I truly was wrong…"

Thinking of this, Qu Yuanliang was genuinely afraid now, and didn't have the courage to continue making excuses; it was clear that Elder Master Qu knew the truth of the matter.

If he continued to resist, the outcome would surely be very tragic…

A great man knows when to yield and when to stand tall. As for a small-minded person like Qu Yuanliang, he immediately began to wail with his face full of tears, wailing while admitting his wrongs…

Yet in his heart, he resented his cousin Qin Fang to the bone, wishing for the opportunity to flay and dismantle him to alleviate the hatred in his heart…

"Hmph…"

Watching this grandson who lacked backbone, Elder Master Qu was extremely angry, emitting a cold snort between breaths and gradually calming down, regaining much of his normal complexion.

"You caused this disaster, so you shall be the one to redeem it… I don't care how, but you must bring back your aunt and cousin… If you can't even manage that, don't bother returning to the Qu Family…"

Elder Master Qu obviously wouldn't let it go easily. After soothing the tension, he immediately declared in an extremely stern voice, the sentence unequivocally decisive.

"Dad..."

"Grandfather..."

Hearing such words, Qu Zhenhang and Qu Yuanliang both involuntarily changed their expressions drastically, immediately crying out in alarm. Clearly, they also did not expect the Elder Master to be so ruthless.

Elder Master Qu has always been a man of his word, and since he's made such a statement today, it's tantamount to a promise—if Qu Yuanliang can bring Qin Qing and Qin Fang back, then this matter can be temporarily overlooked. But if he fails to bring them back... then Qu Yuanliang will no longer be considered a member of the Qu Family.

This was evidently something that neither father nor son could accept. After all, these are kin of the Qu Family; how can they be cast out so easily?

"No need for further words, just see to your own actions..."

But Elder Master Qu was in no mood to say anything more. He huffed and waved his hand toward the old butler beside him,

"Afu, prepare the car, I'm going to the hospital..."

Without giving Qu Zhenhang and his son too much opportunity, Elder Master Qu went straight to the hospital. The old lady's condition had improved, but the only inconvenience was that she was still unable to wake up.

However, this situation presented a significant change from before. No matter what, the Elder Master had to go and see for himself, and over there, he would likely encounter his youngest daughter and the grandson he had never met before...

Despite his strong opposition to his daughter Qu Qing's union with Qin Tiannan years ago, and even using some means to try to break them apart, he has been filled with immense regret ever since she left for the Mainland...

Twenty years of absence without any news whatsoever has caused Elder Master Qu, while busy with his career, to also feel a deep sense of loss...

Now that his daughter has finally returned, and has brought a grandson back with her, and right upon return accomplished such a big feat, he felt gratified, but at the same time, he expressed immense anger towards his own unfilial son...

As a father, the daughter, especially the youngest one, is usually the most cherished among all children. Qin Qing happens to be the only girl among the three siblings of the Qu Family and is also the youngest, almost treated as the princess of the Qu Family... Elder Master Qu had always unconditionally fulfilled all her desires.

However, it was the only request he failed to grant, for which he has regretted for a full twenty years...

...

"Qin Fang, was that really your doing?"

Back at the hotel, after Qin Fang and the others had finished their meal and returned, the people from the Qu Family had all left. However, Qu Qing, remembering her still unconscious mother, couldn't help but inquire about it with Qin Fang.

"Hmm, sort of..."

Qin Fang didn't hide it. Of course, it was his doing—otherwise, how could the doctors be so utterly helpless?

There are many things in traditional medicine that science cannot explain, and Acupuncture Techniques are undoubtedly one of the most mysterious and extraordinary crafts.

Qin Fang's understanding of traditional medicine was limited, but with The Nine Revival Needles, his mastery of the Acupuncture Secret Technique carried a sense of being unprecedented and unparalleled...

As his acupuncture Skill Level continued to increase, the success rate of The Nine Revival Needles was higher, and its effects became even more miraculous. For example, this time with the life-extending golden needle technique, he couldn't have performed it when he first learned The Nine Revival Needles, but now he was able to achieve this feat.

Even though the two attempts were extremely difficult and arduous, the progress was quite evident. Qin Fang felt that the next time he helped someone prolong their life, it wouldn't be as challenging...

However, the trouble caused by this life-extending procedure also made Qin Fang feel a bit disheartened, and he became more cautious about prolonging life for others.

"Then, what about your grandmother..."

Upon hearing it was indeed her son's doing, Qin Qing's expression turned uneasy, but she was not angry, instead expressing her worries.

Obviously, the old lady's condition had improved, and she was no longer in immediate danger of passing away, but she still couldn't open her eyes, which was almost no different from before.

She had come this time to see the old lady for one last time. Now that the old lady didn't need to go, but still couldn't open her eyes to see her, naturally, this still deeply disappointed Qin Qing.

"Don't worry, this is to allow her body to adjust more quickly. Even if I don't intervene, by the end of today at the latest, she will naturally wake up..."

Qin Fang smiled and comforted his mother.

The old lady was currently in a Turtle Breathing State, minimizing bodily functions to the lowest, thereby reducing harm to the minimum. Such a gradual recovery was very beneficial for a severely ill person like her.

If she were to wake up as soon as she was cured, it would actually be somewhat harmful...

Since Qin Fang had promised his mother to cure his grandmother, he naturally wouldn't disappoint his mother, and that's why he had used this technique.

However, this had inadvertently hit the bullseye, causing the Qu Family People to be extremely troubled now. Although Qin Fang was unaware of Elder Master Qu's raging storm, with the Qu Family facing such a dilemma, they were bound to seek out the culprit. Qu Yuanliang might have dodged the bullet once, but it didn't necessarily mean he could avoid it a second time.

"If I'm not mistaken, someone will soon come kneeling, begging for my forgiveness..."

Thinking of this, a somewhat grim smile couldn't help but emerge on Qin Fang's face, as it appeared a certain individual might be in for a stroke of bad luck! (To be continued.
