"Dad! What are you saying?"

"Dad! Are you getting senile? Have you gone crazy?"

"I don't agree! Under us four brothers, it wasn't easy for our Zhou family to become one of the four major families in Acropolis. And now that the Hao family has been eliminated, our Zhou family has swiftly climbed to third place. How can we back down just like that?"

"Dad! Why don't you think about it some more? Isn't it just a fight? Are we really afraid of the Qin family?"

Once Elder Zhou made his decision, his four sons immediately opposed it. They were enjoying the wealth and glory of being a powerful family; how could they just leave this bright and beautiful lifestyle?

"Unfilial sons! I've raised a bunch of unfilial sons!" Elder Zhou stared at his four sons in disappointment. "No wonder the Zhou family has come to this. Not only was that brat Zhou Kai no good, you four are no good as well!

"You're all shortsighted and happy to leave things as they are; you're caught up in the pleasures of life. Do you guys think I want to make this kind of decision? This was all caused by you disappointing brats!"

Elder Zhou shook his head and sighed. He was already an old and gray-haired 70-year-old, but he seemed to age ten years in an instant, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.

"Let's go. Help me back!"

Though the four Zhou sons were extremely dissatisfied with their father's decision, it had already come to this, so they could only support Elder Zhou and leave. Otherwise, would they remain to be oppressed by Qin Feng?

After the Zhou family left, Qin Feng sat on the sofa, somewhat fatigued. These talks were extremely successful, but this solution had been within Qin Feng's expectations, so he didn't express any excitement over it.

After all, Qin Feng knew that his true enemy was still concealed in the dark. They were always there, continuously causing him and the Qin family trouble—an established enemy!

"Young Master Qin!" Not long after the Zhou family left, Long-hair hurried over like there was a fire!

A large group of people followed him. They were Qin Huang, Uncle Fu, and the three beauties from home.

"Qin Feng, are you alright? Little Sister Shi Man said you were in a lot of trouble; I was scared to death!" Xu Ruo Rou was the first to rush forward and hug Qin Feng. Among the three women, she had the most trouble controlling her emotions.

Rao Shi Man was the second to enter the room. She had already washed and changed into clean clothes, and her hair wasn't completely dry. She stood to the side and looked at Qin Feng with worry.

"Qin Feng, what in the world happened?" Han Ying Ying was shrewder than the other two women. Rather than worrying about Qin Feng, she asked about the crux of the matter.

Qin Feng glanced at Rao Shi Man. He knew that everyone rushed over because Rao Shi Man had said something. Rao Shi Man looked at Qin Feng with a tender heart and shook her head. She'd been afraid of ruining Qin Feng's original plan, so she only said that Qin Feng was in a lot of trouble, and didn't mention the cause of the situation.

"Chairman Qin, the Zhou family's Zhou Kai is dead!" None of the people present were outsiders, so Qin Feng felt no need to hide anything.

He had just spoken when Qin Huang's and Han Ying Ying's expressions changed drastically. They were very clear on what the Zhou family represented in Acropolis. They didn't know what to say to Qin Feng. He had just eliminated the Hao family, and single-handedly annihilated Jincheng City's Yu family. Now, he killed Zhou Kai, who was from one of the four major families in Acropolis?

"How did he die?" Qin Huang stepped forward and stared intently at Qin Feng with his sharp eyes.

"I killed him!" replied Qin Feng calmly.

This time, Xu Ruo Rou gave a delicate gasp. Though she wasn't clear on what the Zhou family represented, she knew that murder was huge, resulting in the death penalty; he would lose his head!

"Wah, wah! Qin Feng, w-why did you kill someone? What happened to you? Nothing is going to happen to you, right?" Xu Ruo Rou was originally soft and weak, so now that she heard this news, she was so frightened that she burrowed into Qin Feng's embrace and wailed.

Qin Huang's expression turned cold as well. He knitted his brows and seemed not to hear Xu Ruo Rou's crying. He continued to stare fixedly at Qin Feng. "Why did you kill him?"

This time, Qin Feng didn't reply. He pushed Xu Ruo Rou away lightly, then gave Han Ying Ying a look. Han Ying Ying immediately understood. She walked up to Xu Ruo Rou and brought her outside. 

Long-hair and Xiao Bai walked out, and Uncle Fu brought the bodyguards outside to stand watch by the door. Only Qin Feng, Qin Huang, and Rao Shi Man remained in the room.

Qin Feng sat Rao Shi Man on the sofa, looked tenderly at her, and asked, "Shi Man, are you alright?"

Rao Shi Man was so moved that she wanted to cry. Even in this situation, Qin Feng took the first opportunity to fuss over her. She immediately shook her head. "Qin Feng, I'm fine!"

Only after confirming that Rao Shi Man was fine did Qin Feng look at his father. "Chairman Qin, you sit down too."

The three of them sat on the sofa, and Qin Feng spoke again, "I originally took Shi Man out for a nighttime snack, but I had to leave in the middle of it, and Shi Man was abducted by Zhou Kai…"

Qin Feng summarized the night's events, and Rao Shi Man occasionally chimed in to confirm his account.

After hearing everything, Qin Huang was deep in thought. A while later, he suddenly looked at the large puddle of blood on the floor. Then, his expression changed drastically. "The Zhou family was here?"

"They came and left!" said Qin Feng casually.

"Did you hide when they came?" Qin Huang's gaze was filled with alarm.

Qin Feng's lips quirked slightly. "Chairman Qin, why would I hide? I'm not a rat!"

With one line, Qin Feng shattered the cold and stifling atmosphere. Rao Shi Man couldn't help but burst into laughter. Her slender, lily-white hands covered her red lips. She'd been sad the whole time, and her sudden laughter was as beautiful as a blooming epiphyllum.

Qin Huang had a slight urge to laugh as well, but he suppressed the it, his lips twitching slightly several times.

"Is this any time for that? Be serious, brat!" Qin Huang glowered at Qin Feng. "You've seen the Zhou family? And they took Zhou Kai's body away?"

"I saw them. The family elder and his four sons came!"

Qin Huang's expression continued to fall. Zhou Kai was the eldest grandson of the Zhou family and in the direct line of inheritance. He died so suddenly—and in Royal Hotel at that—and even the Zhou elder came to personally punish the criminal. It was clear that Zhou Kai's death was a very important matter to them.

But the Zhou family came and left, yet Qin Feng sat there safe and sound? This was beyond reason!

Qin Huang's brain whirled, and he guessed at several possibilities. Then, he suddenly slapped his thigh violently and jumped up from the sofa. "Oh no, oh no. The Zhous probably couldn't accept what happened, so they've gone crazy. They're likely to mobilize their entire family to attack our Qin family tonight. You two, get back to Qin Manor right now. I'm going to summon all the Qin family bodyguards to Qin Manor. This is going to be a violent and bloody battle!"

After hearing what his old man said, Qin Feng was speechless.

On the other hand, Rao Shi Man was frightened; she also stood up, clutching Qin Feng's arm with a guilty expression. "Qin Feng, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! I really didn't think things would come to this. Why don't you confess the truth to Chairman Qin? …Never mind, I'll ask for forgiveness myself!"

Rao Shi Man was going to tell Qin Huang the truth: she killed Zhou Kai. How could she let Qin Feng take the blame for her? And this blame was too large, so large that it will cause the Qin and Zhou families to engage in a bloody battle!

Rao Shi Man hadn't yet gone up to Qin Huang when Qin Feng held her back. He didn't control his strength, and the tug sent Rao Shi Man diving into his arms.

Rao Shi Man had just finished showering, so her body was enchantingly fragrant. Her skin was smooth and exquisite. Qin Feng didn't want to let go.

"Qin Feng, y-you want to anger me to death?!"

Qin Huang was going to die of anger because of this son of his. They were in such a dire situation and he was still thinking about picking up girls? Qin Huang had the urge to call in Xu Ruo Rou and reveal Qin Feng's identity as Young Master Qin to both women.

"Chairman Qin, when Elder Zhou left, he said one thing!" Qin Feng still didn't want to release Rao Shi Man. He hugged her lightly. After all of tonight's experiences, Rao Shi Man was still afraid. She didn't struggle, and she suddenly felt that Qin Feng's embrace was very warm and safe! 

"What?" asked Qin Huang immediately.

"Elder Zhou said that starting tonight, the Zhou family would completely step down from its position as one of the four major families in Acropolis!" Qin Feng continued, "He also said that Zhou Kai was unworthy. He abducted Miss Rao Shi Man yet accidentally fell to his demise, and death cannot wipe out his crimes. After all this, he will personally come to thank the Qin family and apologize to Rao Shi Man."

Qin Huang's eyes became extremely wide.

Rao Shi Man lifted herself slightly off Qin Feng's chest and goggled at him.

The two of them wondered if their ears had gone bad. Otherwise, how could the Zhou elder possibly say such things? Did he get Alzheimer's? 

"Shi Man, go out and look for your big sisters Ruo Rou and Ying Ying. I'll speak with Chairman Qin in private!" Qin Feng looked at his father's incredulous expression and lightly pushed Rao Shi Man away.

After she left, Qin Feng let out a deep sigh. He sat casually on the sofa and beckoned to the stunned Qin Huang.

"Dad, Royal Hotel is your territory. Treat it like home and sit down. Don't be polite.

"Earlier, Shi Man was here, and I had to continue pretending I was Young Master Qin's personal attendant. It was so difficult to be unable to acknowledge my own father!"

Once Rao Shi Man left, Qin Feng relaxed completely. He was still his original self, the free and unconstrained Young Master Qin.

"What nerve, brat. Every time you pick up a girl, tens of people in the Qin Manor have to act with you, and you're saying you're tired? I'm the one who's tired to death!" Qin Huang sat down and glared at Qin Feng repeatedly.

"Hurry and tell me what happened tonight? The Zhou family isn't that easy to talk to!"

"Of course they weren't. When they came over, they wanted to capture me, then kill me right then and there…"

A slight smile appeared on Qin Feng's face, and he even poured two glasses of wine, talking with his father while sipping wine. The two of them looked to be chatting about some trifling and ordinary matter. Where had the tension caused by death gone?
