I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

Qin Ge stayed at the Lu family's house for two days, enjoying two days of peace and quiet.

However, the Lu family members were not idle. Lu Xiuyuan had inquired about Qin Ge's situation with his son Lu Qi, but he would not easily believe it.

He sent people to investigate Qin Ge's activities after he arrived in Jinling, and also sent people to the East China Sea to investigate Qin Ge's background.

However, he was destined not to find anything, and the result was not much different from what Lu Qi had said.

The Lin family and Yang Xin'er made arrangements in Jinling, and everything Lu Xiuyuan found was what Qin Ge wanted him to find.

Needless to say, with Hu Qingshan and his group there, it wouldn't be difficult for Lu Xiuyuan to find out about Qin Ge's fabricated identity.

If it had taken longer, that would be a different story. But in a short period of time, Lu Xiuyuan hadn't even found out that Qin Ge was the owner of Qingcheng Beauty!

After investigating, they realized they had been overthinking things and no longer doubted what Lu Qi and Qin Ge had said.

On the contrary, because they suspected that Qin Ge felt a little guilty, they treated Qin Ge with even more respect.

Lu Qi was not idle either. On the one hand, he was trying to contact Lin Yuan, and on the other hand, he was inquiring about Weng Quan's whereabouts.

After two days, he was completely dumbfounded.

It's understandable that we don't know where Weng Quan is, but what's going on with Lin Yuan going missing?

He sent someone to the Lin family to inquire, but the Lin family simply dismissed him with a "I don't know."

In fact, the Lin family did not know Lin Yuan's whereabouts. After Lin Yuan disappeared from the Lin family that night, he seemed to have vanished into thin air and never appeared again!

Since Lin Yuan is not showing his face, and the Lin family does not want the scandals that have happened in the Lin family to be exposed for the time being, it is naturally difficult for outsiders to know the inside story.

"Young Master Lu, shouldn't we get down to business?"

On the third day after arriving at the Lu family, Qin Ge found Lu Qi.

"What important matter?" Lu Qi seemed a bit dull. He hadn't been able to contact Lin Yuan for the past two days, nor could he find out what had happened to the Lin family, and he was starting to doubt himself.

Having been kidnapped for only two days, are you already out of touch with the pace of society?

"Of course, we're going to settle scores with those Dongyang people from the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce and get revenge for you!"

Qin Ge looked at him with a disappointed expression, "You haven't forgotten about this so quickly, have you?"

"Young Master Lu, I really misjudged you!"

"When we first met in Donghai, I immediately noticed your outstanding appearance and the fact that you're from a wealthy family in Jinling. I imagined you to be a passionate young man, a pillar of the nation!"

"That's why I risked my life to save you when I saw you in danger in Jinling. You've really disappointed me!"

Lu Qi was taken aback for a moment, then looked somewhat troubled. "It's not that I don't want revenge, it's just that my parents have investigated and they can't prove that my kidnapping is related to the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce."

"The relationships within the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce are incredibly complex. Even though I'm the eldest son of the Lu family, I can't act recklessly without evidence!"

"Stop making excuses for yourself!" Qin Ge said with disdain. "Now you know how to talk about evidence and morality?"

Did the people from Dongyang say these things when they kidnapped you?

"Your parents were heartbroken when they saw you come back covered in injuries, but you forgot about that in the blink of an eye and are now talking about evidence with the people of Dongyang?"

"You, the dignified young master of the Lu family, were bullied like this by the people of Dongyang on Chinese soil, right in your own backyard, and you didn't even dare to utter a sound. Where is your backbone?"

"If I were you, I'd just smash my head against a wall and die. What face would I have left to live!"

Lu Qi's lips twitched repeatedly. He didn't know why Qin Ge was doing this, but he could clearly sense that Qin Ge was provoking him.

Even though he knew perfectly well what was going on, his blood still boiled with excitement.

Yeah, why should I put up with this kind of humiliation and not dare to utter a single word?

"Brother Qin, your words truly shame me!"

"Are you telling me all this because you have some idea in mind?"

"We're like family, so if you have any ideas, just say them. As long as it helps me vent my anger, I'll listen to you!"

After spending the last two days together, Lu Qi had come to admire Qin Ge quite a bit.

Qin Ge and he were clearly of the same generation, and he was even a few years older than Qin Ge, but Qin Ge could talk to his parents as if they were peers, making him seem like a child!

"You really want to listen to me?"

Qin Ge's lips curled into a smile. "Then let's get ready and head out!"

Around 9 a.m., Qin Ge and Lu Qi arrived at an auction.

There's an auction here at 10 o'clock. Qin Ge has received news that Wu Nanzhi, the president of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, will be attending.

"Brother Qin, are you sure you're not mistaken? Is Wu Nanzhi really coming?" Lu Qi quickly completed all the necessary procedures, including entry verification.

"I don't mean to doubt you, but where did your friend get that information? Could there be a mistake?"

"And even if Wu Nanzhi attends the auction, what does it have to do with my revenge?"

"You can't just mess around with auctions; you might end up losing money!"

Seeing that Qin Ge's expression was not good, Lu Qi quickly added something.

Qin Ge smiled and patted Lu Qi on the shoulder, "Don't worry, just listen to me, I guarantee I'll get revenge for you!"

The two took their seats and waited for the auction to begin.

Not long after Qin Ge and the others sat down, a woman in a black short skirt swayed into the room, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

The woman's makeup was exquisite, and the exaggerated curves in her blazer were very eye-catching, making people's imaginations run wild.

Lu Qi swallowed hard, his gaze still fixed on the woman. He patted Qin Ge on the shoulder and said, "Brother Qin, you're really here!"

Qin Ge turned her head and looked, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Is she Wu Nanzhi? She's so young?"

"Who else could it be but her!" Lu Qi nodded vigorously. He had been inadvertently turned gay in Donghai, and now he felt as if Wu Nanzhi had straightened him out again. "This woman is famously alluring in Jinling, and it's no exaggeration!"

"It's a pity she's the president of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, otherwise I would definitely use money to break her legs and have a taste of it!"

"It's just that her looks are a bit inferior to Xia Yanxi's..."

He suddenly stopped talking, startled, and turned around to see Qin Ge's cold face. He quickly explained, "Brother Qin, that's not what I meant!"

"I... I was just making a slight comparison, I didn't mean anything else!"

"One should not covet a friend's wife. I said I wouldn't make a move on Xia Yanxi, and I absolutely won't!"

"But Brother Qin, your friend is truly remarkable. Even I couldn't find out Wu Nanzhi's whereabouts, yet he somehow knew she would be attending the auction!"

A mischievous smile crept across Lu Qi's lips. "Brother Qin, how about we go find some fun after the auction?"

"Just follow the mold of Wu Nanzhi. You can't find an exact replica, but I guarantee I can make you a few that are seven or eight parts similar!"

"I still get excited just thinking about it!"

Qin Ge's face darkened. "What? Testing the cadres with this thing?"

"I'm a perfectly healthy young man, would I do something like this with you?"

"Have you forgotten your childhood dream of becoming a scientist? Have you forgotten your ambition to be a pillar of the nation?"
