My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife-Chapter 795 He Has The Strength
"Banxia, you should head back first; I’ve got some work to deal with!"
After ending the call with Phoenix, Qin Yu said.
The matters concerning Dragon Gate pretty much belong to national secrets. Su Banxia, being just an ordinary person, definitely shouldn’t follow along.
"Mm, don’t forget our agreement, keep your phone line open anytime!"
Su Banxia made a telephone gesture with her hand.
By the riverside, she had agreed with Qin Yu to be his little spy planted in the Su Family, reporting to him their every move.
Of course, it was also to save the Su Family from falling into the trap laid by the Heixing Group.
"Alright, drive slowly. Old An, time to get off!"
Qin Yu waited for Su Banxia to park her car and called An Xuanming to get off together.
Now that he had been targeted by the forces behind Qing Yi, intending to silence him, as his master, I must keep him close to ensure his safety.
Calling him by name seemed too distant; calling him little An wasn’t appropriate either since he was quite aged. In the end, the address ’Old An’ seemed more fitting.
"Master... you’re going to be busy, right? Should I go to the hospital myself to get the bullet out?"
An Xuanming, clutching his shoulder and grimacing, said.
"You dare go to the hospital alone? Aren’t you afraid that the surgeon, bought off, might slit your throat with the scalpel?"
Qin Yu turned and asked.
"What should I do then?"
An Xuanming subconsciously shrank his neck.
"Just bear with it a bit!"
Qin Yu took a couple of steps, came behind An Xuanming, and slapped the gunshot wound, expelling a surge of True Qi from his palm.
Pop...
The bullet was forced out.
"Phew..."
An Xuanming breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took out a pill for stopping bleeding and healing, stuffing it into his mouth.
After swallowing, he wiped his cold sweat and said, "Thank you, master!"
"Just follow me well, and I won’t let you down. Look at Changfeng; he’s a late-stage Pill Holding master and still scrambles to hang out with me. Let’s go, I’m treating you to skewers!"
Qin Yu tilted his head and took An Xuanming into a taxi.
Soon after, the two got off the car near the sports center and found the Sea Rhythm Skewer Stall.
When they entered, Phoenix was already there.
She was still wearing a black long dress paired with flatform cloth shoes, but tonight she had added a duckbill cap, concealing some of her beauty.
"Qin Yu, is that... isn’t that An Xuanming?"
Phoenix was going to ask who he had brought over. However, she recognized An Xuanming herself. Looking dusty and disheveled tonight, he contrasted greatly with the pampered, high-and-mighty "An Cultivator" image he usually exhibited.
"You are... Phoenix?"
An Xuanming also recognized Phoenix.
"Everyone, take a seat!"
Phoenix nodded slightly and said.
Because An Xuanming was a disciple of the Shennong Sect and a cultivator for the Qin Family, one of the Four Great Families of the Capital City, it was not surprising for Phoenix, being a high-ranking member of Dragon Gate, to have his information.
As for why An Xuanming recognized Phoenix, it was even simpler. Phoenix was the strongest young master among the major sects, and as a member of a major sect, An Xuanming was certainly aware of Phoenix’s presence.
Her white hair was too conspicuous; one glance and you wouldn’t forget it.
"You guys chat; I need to use the restroom!"
Qin Yu hadn’t had a chance to relieve himself from the Jingyu Hotel to the riverside, then to rescuing An Xuanming.
After standing up, he headed towards the restroom in the back.
Although it’s called a skewer stall, the area and decoration were basically on par with a big hotel; after all, this is Capital City, not some small 18th-tier county town.
Even someone like Phoenix knew of this skewer stall, which was definitely famous around this area.
"Hey, watch where you’re walking?"
"Sorry... it was my fault for not paying attention!"
Qin Yu was walking rather hastily and nearly collided with a youth with an updo, who had clean-cut eyebrows and handsome features.
He was dressed in a long silk robe, exuding a bit of the air of an ancient-style pretty boy, with a jade-encrusted belt and a silk purse hanging from it.
And there were two lackeys following behind him.
However, this ancient-style pretty boy seemed easy to talk to, smiling and waving his hand as he took the initiative to apologize.
"Sorry, I was at fault too!"
That was Qin Yu, if someone swung a fist at him, he would definitely swing back. But if someone was polite to him, he would be courteous as well.
"Hehe... see you!"
After nodding his head, the ancient-style pretty boy left the restroom with his two henchmen trailing behind.
In the past two years, there had been a "time travel" trend, with young men and women in traditional costumes appearing in many large cities and tourist attractions. In fact, this was a good sign that people still remembered their cultural heritage.
Not brainwashed by cultures from little Japan, Stick Nation, or the West.
"Phew... that feels good!"
After Qin Yu happily relieved himself, he washed his face with cold water before returning to the hall.
Huh?
Qin Yu actually saw that ancient-style pretty boy talking to Phoenix, unsure whether he was hitting on her or if they already knew each other.
Phoenix’s expression was still cool and detached, but overall, she was polite.
In the end, the ancient-style pretty boy smiled, nodded, and then left the food stall.
"Phoenix, who is that guy?"
After Qin Yu sat down, he showed a gossip-hungry expression.
"Huang Sixian!"
Phoenix stated a name, indicating that the two indeed knew each other.
"Hmm... never heard of him!"
Qin Yu shook his head. But he didn’t underestimate the man either; being acquainted with Phoenix in itself proved that he wasn’t someone simple.
"In the Capital circles, he has a nickname, ’Crown Prince’."
Phoenix stated matter-of-factly.
"Damn, isn’t that nickname a bit too pretentious?"
Qin Yu blinked, somewhat speechless and even amused. What’s the difference between that nickname and the usernames that those online wannabes come up with?
"No, you’re wrong, he has the strength to back it!"
Phoenix corrected Qin Yu seriously.
"Eh..."
Qin Yu paused, partially in disbelief. Perhaps from someone else, he would think that they were trying to fool him. But who was Phoenix? One of the toughest in the younger generation of the big sects, and the second-in-command of Dragon Gate, she could beat the Martial Alliance with one hand tied behind her back.
And she was seriously saying that this ancient-style pretty boy deserved the nickname "Crown Prince."
Could it be that this guy was really some big shot?
"For now, you probably won’t come into contact with his level. Even if you did, as long as you don’t provoke him, there shouldn’t be any problems. His reputation in the Capital circles is fairly good!"
Thinking that Qin Yu might not believe her, Phoenix added another line.
"Alright, it seems Capital City really is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons; you can meet such awesome characters just by going to the bathroom!"
Qin Yu remarked with some emotion.
"It’s normal, the top echelon of Hua Country mostly operates in Capital City!"
Phoenix nodded as she spoke.
"Right, you said there was some situation you wanted to report to me?"
Phoenix broached the topic of business.
"That’s right, the Su Family recently had an emergency splashed all over the news..."
Qin Yu meticulously explained the Su Family’s crisis, including the relationship between Jin Zhijie and Su Banxia, all over again.
At the end, he concluded: "Don’t you think that Heixing Group’s actions are a bit strange?"
