The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!

Chapter 236 Perhaps one day you'll realize that you're not good enough for me.

The atmosphere outside the tea room of the Weiheng Bureau was tense.

Several special agents, dressed in black uniforms and standing tall, stood silently, exuding a cold aura and strict discipline. Every movement was precise and uniform, revealing the iron-blooded competence of those who had been working in top-secret departments for many years.

They didn't use a forceful approach, but simply stepped forward half a step, speaking softly to Lu Cheng'an, who was guarding the door, in a polite yet authoritative tone.

"Sir, this is a top secret internal conversation. Please wait a moment."

Lu Cheng'an's heart tightened. Knowing that the other party's identity was terrifying, he dared not resist in the slightest. He could only suppress his worries and slowly retreat to the outside of the corridor.

As he stepped back, he inadvertently glanced at a corner of the room.

Qin Zheng remained calm and sat upright to the side.

Gao Chuan, the director of the Weiheng Supervision Bureau who had just been high and mighty and had met with the Qin family, was now bowing and bowing his head. Following the gesture of the unfamiliar man in black, he quietly withdrew, his posture extremely respectful, without a trace of his usual domineering and dignified demeanor.

Lu Cheng'an's pupils suddenly contracted.

Gao Chuan is someone even top-tier families treat with respect!

Yet at this moment, he was treating her with the utmost respect, just like a subordinate!

So what is the extraordinary identity of this stranger who suddenly appeared?

Lu Cheng'an's mind raced, instantly connecting the events of the night to the earth-shattering events that had transpired.

It must be the trillions of dollars that the master transferred this morning that completely alarmed the most core special power department of the Dragon Kingdom!

Sir, is something wrong?

Nobody knows that Qin Zheng has already transferred two hundred trillion, but everyone will mistakenly think it is only one hundred trillion.

If they knew, I wonder what their expressions would be.

Not only Lu Cheng'an, but Xiao Jingyan, who had been on duty the whole time, was already stiff and shocked.

Special Investigation Division of the Dragon Kingdom.

Wei Zheng, the highest decision-maker of the Special Branch, wields the supreme authority to act first and report later, making him one of the very few people who truly stand at the very top of the power pyramid in the Dragon Kingdom.

Ordinary disputes involving hundreds of billions or trillions of dollars are simply beneath his notice.

Even Gao Chuan, the director of the Weiheng Supervision Bureau, was just a low-level executive in front of the other party.

Xiao Jingyan had been in the industry for many years, but he had only seen Wei Zheng once from afar a few years ago.

He never expected that the newly rising Qin family would alarm such a reclusive bigwig who would personally come to ask him questions!

The tea room door slowly closed, isolating it from all outside sight and sound.

The room was quiet and still, yet the atmosphere was turbulent.

Wei Zheng stood up straight, nodded slightly to Qin Zheng, and without any further formalities, went straight to the point:

"Mr. Qin, let me introduce myself. I am Wei Zheng, the head of the Special Investigation Department of the Dragon Kingdom."

"On the way here, I already retrieved information about the Qin family."

"You seem to be dissatisfied with Director Gao of the Registry of Financial Statistics, but I also have a question for you."

"This time, can you answer me seriously?"

At this point, Wei Zheng slightly raised his eyes, his gaze suddenly becoming sharp as an eagle's. An invisible, immense sense of oppression instantly swept through the entire tea room, making the air seem to freeze and suffocate people.

Qin Zheng felt a slight chill run down his spine.

He knew this person's identity was extraordinary.

In his previous conversation with Takagawa, he could clearly sense the deliberate intent in the other party's words and responded with ease.

But when he faced Wei Zheng, he truly felt a completely different aura.

This is the absolute oppression that comes from holding the highest position of power and wielding the power of life and death. It is not deliberately created, but it carries the heavy deterrent of a calm and steadfast state.

However, having devoured so many novels about super-rich tycoons during this period, and having lived two lives, his inner strength was already invincible, and he wouldn't be easily frightened.

He nodded slightly. "Go ahead and ask."

This statement is ambiguous; whether or not to answer depends entirely on what the other person asks.

He answered questions he could answer frankly; those he couldn't answer, he had his own ways of dealing with them.

After all, if the other party asked him how his money went through the bank, he really wouldn't be able to explain.

Wei Zheng leaned forward slightly, his face bearing his usual gentle smile, but the pressure in his tone was substantial.

Who exactly were the ancestors of the Qin family?

Qin Zheng's tense nerves relaxed slightly; it turned out to be the same problem after all.

He suddenly remembered a sentence he had said when he was initially bound to the system.

The funds have been legally transferred to Blue Star, and no one will investigate them.

That's it!

In other words, no one cares how his money passes through the bank; they only wonder who his ancestors were, that they could accumulate such a vast fortune.

In other words, all he needs to do is bring up Brother Zheng to verify and explain that the Qin family's money has been accumulated for over two thousand years.

The dragon-shaped jade pendant is the only piece of evidence that can connect the Qin family with Qin Shi Huang.

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng's lips curled up slightly, and he said in a pretentious manner:

"Even if I told you, Section Chief Wei might not believe me."

"How about this, I'll give you the information, and you can verify it yourselves."

Wei Zheng frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied with this evasive answer.

"Mr. Qin can speak frankly; we will verify the authenticity ourselves later."

Qin Zheng gently shook his head, picked up his teacup, took a small sip of the mellow Imperial Longjing tea, and then slowly began to explain.

"My Qin family has a dragon-shaped jade pendant passed down through generations, which is our only identity document."

"A few days ago, my eldest grandson developed feelings for that girl from the Bai family, so I gave her the jade pendant. You can ask her if she's found out anything."

"Bai Lingxi?" Wei Zheng was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected the Qin family to want to form a marriage alliance with the Bai family. He immediately had a few more things to consider.

Qin Zheng chuckled lightly:

"That girl is outstanding in appearance and comes from a top-notch family. I think my grandson is quite interested in her."

"To prevent my eldest grandson from feeling inferior, I have to reveal my ancestral background, right?"

"Besides, as a grandfather, I really want to hold my great-grandson tightly."

Wei Zheng shook his head slightly, his expression remaining serious.

"Mr. Qin, this answer is insufficient to dispel our doubts."

Qin Zheng raised his hand and gently stroked his chin, as if savoring the moment for a long time. He then let out a soft sigh and said:

"Since you insist, I'll tell you a little bit."

"My father named me Qin Zheng, intending it to commemorate the most illustrious ancestor of our Qin family."

"Qin Zheng..." Wei Zheng subconsciously murmured the name to himself.

The next second, his body jolted violently.

Qin Zheng!

The First Emperor of Qin!

Years of training have honed his ability to remain unmoved even when Mount Tai collapses before him, and to keep his eyes fixed on a deer running past him.

However, although he didn't show it on his face, his heart was already in turmoil!

The Qin family ancestors were actually from the lineage of the First Emperor?

However, historical records clearly state that after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King, slaughtered the direct descendants of the First Emperor, nearly severing the legitimate lineage of the Qin Dynasty, leaving no successor.

But at this moment, reason tells him that this is very likely true!

History is written by the victors, and over the millennia, truth and falsehood have become indistinguishable.

No one can be certain that the First Emperor's bloodline has truly been completely severed.

Otherwise, how did the Qin family come up with 100 trillion?

The Wang and Bai families have a long history, while the Li family was able to rise to prominence later because it produced a famous emperor. Now, the three families stand at the top of the aristocratic families.

Even so, their total assets are only a little over 50 trillion.

But what about the Qin family?

Rootless and without roots, yet their wealth surpasses that of all ancient families!

Aside from the astonishing legacy accumulated by the First Emperor's lineage over thousands of years, there is no other reasonable explanation!

Wei Zheng was deeply shocked.

If the Qin family's ancestors were truly from the lineage of the First Emperor, and their identities were revealed, he could foresee that the Dragon Kingdom would inevitably experience a massive upheaval.

Regardless of the final choice made by those above, the moment the Qin family's identity is revealed will inevitably reshape the landscape of the Dragon Kingdom.

This matter is far too significant and involves too many people. We absolutely cannot draw conclusions based solely on Qin Zheng's one-sided account. We must immediately conduct a thorough investigation, trace the source, and gather evidence.

Suppressing all the turmoil in his heart, Wei Zheng asked in a deep voice.

"Mr. Qin, will you be leaving Beijing anytime soon?"

Qin Zheng pondered for a moment, then calmly replied:

"How long is 'soon'? If it's within a week, they should still be in Beijing."

This timeframe is sufficient for the Special Branch to complete all source tracing and verification, jade pendant identification, and background evidence collection.

Wei Zheng nodded slightly, his tone solemn.

"Then Mr. Qin, please rest and enjoy your time in the capital. I will visit you again within a week."

"Okay," Qin Zheng readily agreed.

At first glance, the Special Branch's attitude towards the Qin family seems relatively friendly.

However, he dared not let his guard down.

After all, there have been people in history who were incredibly wealthy, yet ended up with tragic fates.

He could have avoided this risk, but to destroy the Xie family, he couldn't avoid the Dragon Kingdom government.

Therefore, they had no choice but to come to the capital to make arrangements.

Fortunately, everything is still under control.

After the conversation ended, Wei Zheng was the first to stand up and walk out of the tea room.

Everyone outside the door stood ready, holding their breath, their eyes fixed on the doorway, filled with trepidation and curiosity.

What was the outcome of the conversation between this top tycoon and Qin Zheng? Would the Qin family be destroyed or stabilized?

As the door opened, everyone instinctively held their breath.

Wei Zheng walked ahead and said to Gao Chuan beside him in a serious tone:

"Gao Chuan, immediately arrange for personnel to escort Mr. Qin back to the hotel, ensuring his personal safety and well-being."

"yes!"

Gao Chuan was startled and quickly bowed to accept the order.

All the staff of the Weiheng Supervision Bureau and the special operations team present were utterly astonished and shocked.

The big boss personally ordered him to provide protection?

This isn't a mere meeting or control measure; it's clearly top-tier treatment!

What exactly is going on?

"Master, are you alright?" Seeing this, Lu Cheng'an's worries were greatly relieved.

Judging from the current situation, the Qin family should be safe from trouble for the time being.

Qin Zheng remained calm, casually waving his hand and smiling:

"It's no big deal, just having a cup of tea and chatting about everyday things."

Having said that, he looked at Gao Chuan, who stood respectfully to the side:

"It's late, Director Gao. Could you please take me back to my hotel? My child must be getting impatient."

"Of course, Mr. Qin, please." Gao Chuan's demeanor was humble, his attitude had completely changed, and he didn't mention the rating at all.

Presidential Suite in Beijing.

Qin Jianjun and Zhao Lin paced anxiously the entire time, unable to sit still and filled with fear.

From the moment Qin Zheng was taken away for questioning by the Weiheng Supervision Bureau until the last minute of the night, every single second was an extreme ordeal.

In their eyes, being summoned for questioning by the Weiheng Supervision Bureau is basically equivalent to facing a major disaster.

The moment they saw Qin Zheng calmly and easily walk into the suite, the three of them instantly relaxed and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Qin Jianjun, in particular, was overwhelmed by the pressure of the past few days and the fear he felt tonight. His eyes instantly turned red, and he almost burst into tears on the spot. He quickly stepped forward to hug Qin Zheng.

"Father! You're finally back!"

Qin Zheng raised his hand and pried his hand away with disgust and helplessness, then snorted irritably.

"How pathetic! At your age, you still panic in the face of trouble."

Although his tone was reprimanding, there was a hint of warmth in his eyes.

Qin Jianjun chuckled, unfazed by the pressure: "I only feel at ease when Dad's around!"

Qin Zheng rolled his eyes at him, then gave the order:

"It's late, you should get some rest."

-

Meanwhile, in Jiangnan Province.

Bai Lingxi has just ended her call with Wang Zhaoyue.

She learned that Wang Zhaoyue planned to take Qin Ziyang on a trip, leaving her alone.

Bai Lingxi feigned anger and pretended to be upset, causing several minor disturbances that prompted Wang Zhaoyue to gently coax and soothe her before she finally pretended to be magnanimous and forgave her.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Lingxi was about to go to sleep when her phone rang again.

She glanced at the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number.

She pressed the answer button and asked hesitantly, "Hello?"

Wei Zheng on the other end of the phone got straight to the point:

"Miss Bai, I am Wei Zheng from the Special Investigation Department of the Dragon Kingdom. Did the Qin family give you a dragon-shaped jade pendant?"

Teco? Wei Zheng!

Bai Lingxi froze, her drowsy state vanishing instantly, and she became fully awake, her heart churning with turbulent emotions!

The highest-ranking official in the Dragon Kingdom's Special Branch! A top-tier figure who exists only in rumors among the elite!

She remembered that the Qin family had been invited to tea by Gao Chuan tonight.

The moment she heard the news, she knew the Qin family was doomed.

But she never expected that the Qin family would alarm Wei Zheng so much that he would personally call to inquire about it late at night!

Something's not right!

With the Qin family on the verge of destruction, how could they possibly allow the top brass of the Special Branch to personally intervene?

Countless questions arose in her mind, but she dared not think too much about them and quickly replied:

"Hello, Section Chief Wei, the Qin family did indeed give me a dragon-shaped jade pendant."

"The jade pendant is not currently in my possession. The Qin family informed me that this jade pendant is a heirloom passed down from their ancestors. I have already entrusted it to Academician Lü Zhen in Beijing for authentication, but I have not received a reply from them yet." Bai Lingxi explained the reason as clearly as possible.

"Okay, sorry to bother you." Wei Zheng hung up the phone after learning the location of the jade pendant.

The receiver went dead, but Bai Lingxi remained frozen in place, her mind reeling and unable to calm down for a long time.

What earth-shattering secret did the Qin family's ancestors hold?!

It's amazing that it alarmed the highest levels of the Special Branch to personally investigate!

She was completely baffled, as if there was a thorn in her heart.

This was unacceptable to her, a woman who had always been strong-willed, as she harbored a mystery in her heart.

She needs to know the truth!

She opened her laptop, clicked on Qin Zihao's profile, and dialed the number listed.

The call was quickly answered, and Qin Zihao's calm voice came through, "Feed?"

"Qin Zihao, right? I am Bai Lingxi. Who exactly were your Qin family ancestors?" Bai Lingxi asked anxiously.

Qin Zihao felt a surge of joy upon hearing Bai Lingxi's voice, but the warmth vanished almost instantly upon hearing her follow-up question.

It turned out they came to ask him about the jade pendant.

If it were Qin Zihao from the night before, his tone might have been much more tactful.

But now that he has a hundred trillion in his account, he is no longer the boy who needed to carefully look up at Bai Lingxi.

He no longer felt that Bai Lingxi was so unattainable as before. In fact, it seemed that the question was not whether he was worthy of her, but whether she was worthy of his Qin family.

The balance of power has shifted.

However, Qin Zihao's silence only made Bai Lingxi more anxious. "Qin Zihao, I'm asking you a question!"

She was completely unaware of the subtle shift in the atmosphere.

"I've had the jade pendant for two days, and you still haven't found out?" Qin Zihao didn't know who Qin's ancestors were, so he asked, "Did you come to me for something else?"

The indifferent and aloof tone instantly stung Bai Lingxi, who was always the center of attention.

Her face darkened, and her tone was clearly displeased and questioning.

"Qin Zihao, what kind of tone is that? Do you have a problem with me?"

"A little," Qin Zihao said frankly.

Bai Lingxi was instantly amused and exasperated.

Who is Bai Lingxi? She is someone who climbed to the top by stepping on the corpses of her talented peers in the Bai family. She is capable, shrewd, has a powerful background, and is beautiful.

Looking across the entire Dragon Kingdom, the noble sons who admire her can be lined up from the northernmost part of the Dragon Kingdom to overseas countries.

Even the core members of the Wang and Li families had to be polite and courteous to her.

Why does Qin Zihao speak to her like that?

A sense of superiority and arrogance surged into her heart instantly. Her tone was icy, filled with undisguised sarcasm and contempt.

"Qin Zihao, who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that? I was originally going to give you another chance to test you, but now it seems that the Qin family is a bunch of people who can't be brought to the table."

"You think you can pursue me? What's the status of my Bai family, and what's the status of your Qin family?"

"Qin Zihao, do you know what? If it weren't for Zhaoyue's sake, you wouldn't even deserve to look at me!"

"Don't you even know your place? How dare you give me attitude?"

Qin Zihao fell silent; it was the first time he had realized that Bai Lingxi was this kind of person.

The love at first sight and the joy I felt in the past have completely vanished in this moment.

He finally saw Bai Lingxi's true nature.

From beginning to end, she looked down on the Qin family and on the ordinary-born family of the grandfather and grandson.

Even when her grandfather displayed his immense wealth, alarming the highest levels of the nation, she still maintained the arrogance of a thousand-year-old family, looking down on him with disdain and contempt.

You can look down on him, but you can't look down on the grandfather who gave everything to support the Qin family!

In an instant, Qin Zihao understood many things, and without further hesitation, he chuckled:

"Maybe one day you'll realize that you're not good enough for me."

Upon hearing this, Bai Lingxi seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, and retorted sarcastically:

"Qin Zihao, you overestimate yourself. You'll never live to see that day!"
