The School Beauty's Super Rogue-Chapter 1069 - 1066: Gongsun Family

With Nian Nian the Little Angel’s morning kiss, Qin Hao felt his mood had brightened for the entire day.

After washing up, he sat at the dining table with two beauties, one big and one small.

Nian Nian was in the center, Qin Hao on the left, Qiao Jiaying on the right.

At a glance, it really looked like a harmonious family of three.

Empress Qiao’s claim that her cooking was delicious was not mere bragging.

Qin Hao had just eaten a bowl of noodles and was convinced Celestial Empress would be a very suitable wife.

Yes, a bowl of noodles can basically determine one’s culinary skills.

Qin Hao felt the Empress’s level of cooking was probably on par with his own.

The two seemed to still be savoring the charm of the previous night, chatting with Nian Nian while exchanging meaningful glances at the table.

The little girl didn’t notice, eating her noodles contentedly and occasionally showing a warm smile.

After the meal, the atmosphere turned into one of reluctance.

Nian Nian was to be sent back home today.

Her home was in the remote western part of Xiang Province.

If nothing unexpected happened, she would spend her entire childhood there.

If her grades were good, she might change her fate through knowledge.

If her grades were average, she might forever remain in the mountain village.

Thinking of this, Qiao Jiaying’s face revealed intense reluctance.

Qin Hao didn’t say much, how to proceed was all up to the Empress’s decision.

Because, once she accepted Nian Nian, she was taking on an extra commitment.

That burden wasn’t heavy, but it definitely wasn’t light either.

Originally, Qin Hao wanted to deal with the Celestial Dragon Order affairs, but seeing the Empress and Nian Nian both sad and reluctant, he could only personally act as the driver to escort them to the company.

The foundation had a dedicated charity team, and when their car arrived at the destination, the person in charge came up; she was a middle-aged woman with glasses, "Welcome, welcome!"

Due to feeling down, Qiao Jiaying’s smile was rather forced, even as she got out of the car, she kept holding Nian Nian’s small hand.

Nian Nian looked at her with longing eyes.

In just one day, Qiao Jiaying’s status in the young girl’s mind had increased sharply, becoming a presence difficult to part with.

"Nian Nian, quickly say goodbye to your sister, we’re getting ready to go."

The person in charge patted Nian Nian’s head as she spoke.

Nian Nian bit her lip, her eyes filled with tears.

"Why is Nian Nian crying?" The person in charge seemed puzzled.

Yesterday, according to the Empress’s request, she had specially handed Nian Nian over to her.

But calculating carefully, it was only one night’s time.

Why was Nian Nian so reluctant?

Qiao Jiaying’s eyes also turned a bit red. Strangely, as long as she thought about Nian Nian leaving, her heart felt like a piece was being cut out.

Qin Hao watched this scene, but apart from sighing quietly, he couldn’t do anything.

Qiao Jiaying is a sought-after Empress with a boundless future in the star world.

If she wished, she could easily become a superstar in Huaxia.

But what if she adopted Nian Nian?

Even though she’s acting out of kindness, who knows how those unscrupulous media targeting her would write?

If Qiao Jiaying truly took in Nian Nian, it would more or less affect her star career.

"Sigh." Qiao Jiaying sighed deeply, stroking Nian Nian’s head: "Sister will come to see you..."

It was clear that saying this required her great courage.

"Yes, goodbye sister!" With this simple sentence, Nian Nian now had hope to hold onto. She wiped her tears and followed the person in charge into the car.

The car started, and Nian Nian waved from the window, her eyes filled with longing.

Qiao Jiaying and Qin Hao kept smiling and waving.

It wasn’t until the car disappeared around the corner that Qin Hao sighed, "A strong child."

"Yes." Qiao Jiaying might be feeling down, becoming somewhat disheartened.

"They’ll have a chance to meet again." Qin Hao patted her shoulder to encourage her.

"I know."

The sadness on Qiao Jiaying’s face gradually disappeared, replaced by a fervent look.

Qin Hao felt a bit uneasy, wanted to find an excuse to leave, but heard Qiao Jiaying say: "I need to unwind, let’s go back."

The unwilling Qin Hao was forcibly pulled away by Qiao Jiaying.

...

Night.

When Qin Hao arrived at the Qian Family home, his waist still felt sore.

He tried to appear calm, but that weariness still didn’t escape Qian Feishun’s eyes.

The latter asked, "What’s wrong with you?"

Guiltily, Qin Hao shook his head, "Nothing."

"Nothing indeed." Qian Feishun was a bit surprised, "You used to stride like a dragon and tiger, today you look like a limp shrimp."

Qin Hao remained silent, feeling uneasy remembering what happened in the afternoon.

The Empress, so fierce!

"Did you suffer a serious injury?" Qian Feishun, resting his chin, speculated: "Makes sense, after all it’s against the Three Celestial Kings, I saw you looked quite tired in that video."

"Mm, it’s all the Zhou Family’s fault." Qin Hao responded half-heartedly, asking, "Where’s the thing?"

"Here it is." Qian Feishun took out an item, which Qin Hao checked carefully.

Familiar appearance, familiar touch, familiar weight, without a doubt, it was the Celestial Dragon Order.

Counting this, it’s already the fifth piece of the Celestial Dragon Order.

Qin Hao’s mood couldn’t help but improve, pocketing the Celestial Dragon Order with a smile, "Right, where’s our disciple?"

Qian Feishun said, "Jinhua is feeling upset because she didn’t defeat the Fire Celestial King last night, now she’s practicing in the quiet room with Jin Fei."

Qin Hao nodded in silent contemplation, Qian Feishun added, "When do you plan to go for the sixth piece?"

"What’s the sixth piece?"

"Playing dumb, huh?" Qian Feishun smiled skeptically, "At this stage, there’s no need to pretend anymore."

Qin Hao looked puzzled, "I really don’t know."

Qian Feishun sighed with a smile, "You’ve already acquired five pieces of the Celestial Dragon Order, still want to hide it from everyone?"

"Oh, you’re talking about that." Qin Hao felt a bit awkward.

Qian Feishun continued, "Now everyone in the circle knows your goal. Actually, what I want to know is why you need the Celestial Dragon Order."

"I want to know too." Qin Hao shrugged helplessly, "To be honest, I’ve been forced into this."

Qian Feishun rolled his eyes, being forced yet you’ve subdued the Four Great Families and wiped out a Major Clan?

"So which family is your next target? Gongsun Family or Situ Family?"

Qin Hao had seen the profiles of both families from the military, but comparatively, the military intelligence was too general.

He said, "Tell me in detail."

Qian Feishun explained, "Among the Three Major Clans, the Zhou Family is still absent, the Gongsun Family values wealth, and the Situ Family is moderate."

"The Gongsun Family among the Three Major Clans is less powerful militarily but excels in extensive wealth."

"How extensive?"

Qin Hao asked with a puzzled look.

Qian Feishun put on a serious expression, "Including the Zhou Family, the Four Great Families barely match up to the Gongsun Family."

"That’s exaggerated?" Qin Hao was quite surprised.

In the military intelligence, the Gongsun Family was rated "rich beyond measure."

But specifically how wealthy, there was no detailed description.

Qian Feishun said, "Futian Group is one of the top three real estate companies in Beijing. Meile Air Conditioner, Han Palace Fried Chicken, Doling Electronics... these well-known companies, the Gongsun Family basically holds some shares in all of them..."
