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

After a thoroughly enjoyable training session, Qin Ge was about to send a message to the Lu family to reveal some information about Lu Qi when Wu Nanzhi called first.

"Are you kidding me? You want me to trade my life for Lu Qi's?"

"Do you think I'm that great?"

Qin Ge was amused by Wu Nanzhi's words, "Even if Lu Qi were my son, it's impossible!"

He hung up the phone decisively after he finished speaking.

Qin Ge knew that regardless of whether she wanted to save Lu Qi or not, she couldn't show weakness in front of Wu Nanzhi, otherwise she would be led by the nose by the other party!

On the other side, Wu Nanzhi stood frozen in place, listening to the busy tone coming from the phone.

Now Lu Qi has become a hot potato!

Killing Lu Qi is easy, just one strike, but what happens after that?

Whether Qin Ge will avenge Lu Qi is another matter, but what is certain is that the Lu family and Qiao Song will!

Letting him go is out of the question; letting Lu Qi live is a huge hidden danger, and I'm not willing to give up on that idea either.

Besides, this bastard has gone completely mad. If we let him leave alive, wouldn't that make what he said a fact, that it was because we couldn't bear to kill him?

Should we kill Lu Qi before the Lu family and Shadow Martial Hall target us, and then retreat to Dongyang as quickly as possible?

Wu Nanzhi's mind was filled with a jumble of thoughts, her emotions were complex and difficult to calm.

She glanced up at Lu Qi, wondering if she should keep him around and maintain that relationship, using him to build connections with the Lu family.

This way, all the problems can be solved, and the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce can also take its position to the next level by leveraging its relationship with the Lu family!

The price is that all my dignity and pride will be crushed and rubbed into the ground, just like last night when Lu Qi pinned me to the bed.

Wu Nanzhi shook her head violently, breaking out in a cold sweat. She felt like she was probably going crazy.

Lu Qi, that bastard, just ruthlessly ravaged her and Hashimoto Aoi last night. How could she have such a ridiculous idea?

If Lu Qi knew that she had such thoughts, it's hard to imagine how smug he would be, or how crazy he would go!

As Wu Nanzhi thought about it, she felt so embarrassed that her cheeks burned.

Just as she was struggling to make a decision, Hashimoto Aoi received a phone call, sounding slightly excited, "President, our people have gotten some information!"

"Qin Ge is from Donghai; he's a student at Donghai University!"

"Lin Yao, the daughter of Lin Chen from the Lin family, is also a student at Donghai University. She and Qin Ge have some connection, and Qin Ge may very well have come to Jinling for Lin Yao's sake!"

"What do you mean?" Wu Nanzhi's mind went blank.

Lu Qi was also a little confused and couldn't figure it out for a moment.

First of all, Qin Ge is Xia Yanxi's boyfriend, and then he has an affair with Yu Jinghong. Now tell him that Qin Ge came to Jinling for Lin Yao from the Lin family?

He is truly a role model for us all!

If there were any more information, such as adding Yang Xin'er, Lu Qi's CPU would probably start smoking on the spot.

Hashimoto Aoi glanced at Lu Qi. "Didn't Qin Ge say Lu Qi wasn't up to par?"

"If we have someone with enough influence in our hands, wouldn't he just walk right into our trap?"

"For example, Lin Yao!"

Wu Nanzhi understood Hashimoto Aoi's meaning, but still hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Do you really think this will work? How confident are you?"

"Would Qin Ge really risk his life for a woman?"

"We've already offended the Lu family, and now we can't contact Lin Yuan. If we make an enemy of the Lin family as well, we'll really have no choice but to return to Dongyang!"

"How can I be sure!" Hashimoto Aoi gave a wry smile. "But President, we have no other choice."

"We were blinded by hatred just now, and we were too hasty in contacting Qin Ge."

"As for the Lu family, Lu Qi's whereabouts are currently unknown. If Qin Ge sends a message to the Lu family, there's a high chance we'll be targeted by the Shadow Martial Hall!"

"Once Shadow Martial Hall makes its move, we truly have no chance of turning the tide!"

She gritted her teeth. "Rather than this, I might as well take a gamble."

"If we haven't contacted the Lu family yet, as long as we kill him, no one will know what we've done, and we can continue to stay in Donghai."

"If Qin Ge has already contacted the Lu family, then we can kill Qin Ge to vent our anger before returning to Dongyang!"

Wu Nanzhi fell silent. She agreed with Hashimoto Aoi's idea, but she still couldn't make up her mind.

She was really unwilling to give up the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, which had been operating in Jinling for so long!

"You don't need to worry about this so much. In my opinion, this matter is very easy to resolve!" Lu Qi suddenly spoke up when Wu Nanzhi was struggling with this.

"If I just make a phone call home, all your concerns will be resolved. Even if Qin Ge contacts my family, it won't make any difference!"

"I'd be happy to help you, but there are conditions!"

His gaze was extremely aggressive, roaming freely between Wu Nanzhi and Hashimoto Aoi, and he even licked his lips, "You know what I mean, hehe!"

"Shameless!" Hashimoto Aoi and Wu Nanzhi spoke almost simultaneously, then fell silent.

Both of them knew in their hearts that Lu Qi was right.

Regardless of Lu Qi's motives, as long as he is genuinely willing to cooperate and make a phone call home, their situation will immediately change, transforming them from passive to having the option to advance or retreat!

But Lu Qi's conditions...

"What's so shameless about this? My conditions aren't unreasonable, are they?" Lu Qi chuckled when he saw the two of them hesitating.

He just blurted it out on a whim, and even he thought it was outrageous. Who knew that Wu Nanzhi and the others would actually consider it!

"We've been through this so many times last night, we all know each other well, one more time won't make a difference, one less time won't make a difference either."

"If you just grit your teeth, close your eyes, relax, and enjoy yourself, your troubles can be resolved. Why not give it a try?"

"If you're only doing this because of your pride and can't save face, then there's even less need for it!"

"Whatever the reason, the fact is, I'm probably the closest person to you besides your parents, right?"

"When it comes to great things, results are the most important thing. Only immature people are swayed by their emotions!"

Lu Qi intensified his efforts, racking his brains to persuade Wu Nanzhi and the other person.

He felt he had never said so many reasonable things in his life. He not only firmly believed in what he said, but also proudly admired himself.

Wu Nanzhi and Hashimoto Aoi remained silent, glancing at each other every now and then, an awkward atmosphere permeating the air.

They were truly tempted; if either of them had been present, they probably would have already agreed to Lu Qi's proposal.

Since neither of them knows what the other is thinking, they should at least have some self-respect.

"You...you're telling the truth? You're really willing to do this?" Wu Nanzhi asked, her ears burning with embarrassment, her hands gripping the leather whip tightly.

"Hashimoto, take him there and fulfill his request!"

Hashimoto Aoi's body trembled, and her eyes became complicated.

She obeyed Wu Nanzhi's orders, and it was only right for her to make sacrifices at this time; she could accept it.

"Wait a minute!" Lu Qi was untied by Hashimoto Aoi and was about to be taken away when he suddenly spoke.

He stared intently at Wu Nanzhi, a smirk playing on his lips. "She doesn't count; I want you!"
