Boarding Life-Chapter 582

Ling Feixue listened and said in a gentle tone, "Zhang Quande, although I'm not clear about the grievances between you and Qin Qi, Qin Qi is now with Red Flower Company."

"For the sake of Red Flower Company, and for my sake, if there's any dispute, let's sit down and discuss it slowly!"

She thought her presence might hold some weight.

After all, she is still officially engaged to the second young master of the Zhang family.

However, to her surprise, Zhang Quande sneered at Ling Feixue, "Ling Feixue, do you really think you have any influence in front of me, or that your Red Flower Company holds any sway over me?"

"Understand your position. The marriage alliance between your Ling family and our Zhang family is merely your Ling family's attempt to climb up to us."

"Do you really consider yourself someone important?"

Ling Feixue clenched her fists tightly, her anger evident.

But she knew Zhang Quande was not wrong.

This was precisely the reason she didn't want to marry into the Zhang family.

Because in the eyes of the Zhang family, she was nothing more than an ant, a tool.

To the second young master of the Zhang family, she was just as insignificant.

Even so, her Ling family would still try all means to establish this connection.

Zhang Quande continued to scoff, "As for your Red Flower Company, haha. Does your Red Flower Company have any say in what our Zhang family wants to do?"

Xu Qiaoqiao took a deep breath, "Zhang Quande, is there really no room for negotiation?"

Zhang Quande laughed mockingly, "Room for negotiation? It's not impossible!"

He then abruptly released his aura entirely.

A piercing force surged forward like waves upon waves.

Seeing this, Qin Qi furrowed his brows.

Because Zhang Quande's strength was evidently on par with Mad Dog, at the ninth level of a true expert!

Zhang Quande leisurely said, "It's simple. Qin Qi, you just need to answer one question, and I might reconsider negotiating!"

Qin Qi stood with his hands behind him, equally curious, "What is it?"

Zhang Quande leisurely continued, "Simple. Despite your talent, you come from a humble background. Cai Nian also has no solid reason to eliminate you!"

"You do seem to have some conflicts, but for it to blow up this big, I can't believe Cai Nian is just doing it for revenge. There must be another reason. Haha, just tell me that reason, and I might spare your little life!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qi finally understood why Zhang Quande had lured him here.

It turned out to be for this.

He chuckled coldly.

Involving the Silver Que Sutra pages, even if he told the truth, Zhang Quande certainly wouldn't let him go!

Thinking of this, Qin Qi's gaze became resolute, "What if I don't tell you?"

"Qin Qi!" Ling Feixue and Xu Qiaoqiao were both tense.

They didn't believe Qin Qi couldn't see that Zhang Quande's display today was beyond their ability to resist.

What on earth couldn't be told?

Zhang Quande burst into laughter, "Qin Qi, I'm not like Cai Nian's useless subordinates. Killing you is as easy as squashing an ant for me!"

Qin Qi's expression remained calm as always, "Zhang Quande, believe it or not, you can't kill me today!"

Hearing this, Zhang Quande was first stunned, then laughed even more wildly.

Even those around him seemed to hear an incredibly amusing joke.

The fourth young master of the Zhang family, the prodigy from the most influential background in Shangjing!

Unable to kill a bumpkin from the provinces!

Anyone would find it absurd.

Xu Qiaoqiao and Ling Feixue were also surprised because they didn't know where Qin Qi's confidence came from!

However, Qin Qi still wore a smile, remaining calm and composed.

Zhang Quande raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Haha, I see, you're counting on them. Hahaha, alright, you all don't have to hide any longer, come out!"

Upon his words, several figures emerged from the shadows.

Qin Qi recognized the leading person; it was Hu Lao!

Besides him, the others were also from the Governance Department!

Seeing Hu Lao arriving so quickly, Qin Qi sighed in relief.

The contact he secretly messaged just now was Hu Lao!

After all, the Governance Department is meant to maintain order on the surface. People like Mad Dog and Han could secretly engage, but he couldn't rely on the Governance Department for that.

But Zhang Quande dared to be so openly brazen, which was an outright disruption of the order maintained by the Governance Department!

Xu Qiaoqiao also seemed to grab a lifeline, "With such a large-scale confrontation among insiders across the provinces, the Governance Department can't just sit by, right?"

When Hu Lao saw Zhang Quande's demeanor, his expression suddenly hardened.

He looked troubled, and upon hearing Xu Qiaoqiao's words, he only gave a nod.

But Zhang Quande retorted with a mocking smile, "Qin Qi, the reliance and confidence you speak of is just this worthless Governance Department!"

Upon hearing that Zhang Quande didn't even regard the Governance Department, Qin Qi's face darkened!

Zhang Quande glanced at Hu Lao, "Since you're from the Governance Department, you must know who I am, right?"

Hu Lao smiled awkwardly, "Fourth Young Master, each province has its own rules. You've created such a stir; it's hard for us subordinates to manage. How about you..."

Zhang Quande's face fell, "Courting death, have you forgotten who established the Governance Department? What, you dare to interfere with my matters? While I'm still patient, get lost, while you still can!"

Hearing this, Hu Lao, who intended to say a few more words, immediately shrank back.

He glanced at Zhang Quande, then at Qin Qi, his eyes filled with pity, and finally sighed.

"Mr. Qin, take care!"

He then looked back at his team, "Today, nothing happened here. Let's go!"

Xu Qiaoqiao angrily retorted, "Is this how the Governance Department operates?"

But Hu Lao didn't even look back, as if eager to leave the trouble behind, without a backward glance!

Qin Qi's spirits sank to the lowest.

In that moment, he was thoroughly disillusioned with the so-called Governance Department.

Previously, even if Cai Nian acted covertly, he still believed the Governance Department's surface order was unbreakable.

But now, it seemed all depended on the person involved!

If he violated the Governance Department's order, it wouldn't be allowed.

If he was hunted, the Governance Department would turn a blind eye!

And now, faced with blatant aggression, the Governance Department could outright ignore it!

The so-called maintaining of order, now seemed utterly ridiculous!

"Fine, fine, fine!!"

Qin Qi's killing intent surged around him.

The anger brought on by injustice had reached its peak within him.
