The School Beauty's Super Rogue-Chapter 1071 - 1068: A Spur-of-the-Moment Departure

Chapter 1071: Chapter 1068: A Spur-of-the-Moment Departure

When Qin Hao stood still, the people of the Gongsun Family initially thought he was alone.

But upon closer inspection, they suddenly felt that Qin Hao seemed like a sword, a sharp sword.

With just one focused glance, they understood that Qin Hao’s strength was in the Ultimate Realm, not just an empty reputation.

Relying on martial prowess alone, the Gongsun Family truly couldn’t provoke him!

Yet despite this, the people present neither lost hope nor retreated.

The Gongsun Family never played with martial prowess, but with money and power.

If Qin Hao wanted to defeat the Gongsun Family, he would have to strike from these two aspects.

Otherwise, the complex power web would not allow Qin Hao to succeed.

"I don’t seem to be very welcome?" No one expected Qin Hao’s first words to have a joking tone.

"Wherever Mr. Qin feels displeased, it’s my fault. As the patriarch, I apologize to you first."

Gongsun Hong stood up, bowed across the table, looking amiable.

The elders weren’t surprised by this scene; Gongsun Qiang, however, showed a face of anger and snorted in dissatisfaction.

Qin Hao smiled at Gongsun Hong: "No need for courtesy."

After Gongsun Hong stood up, he said, "Would Mr. Qin like something to drink?"

Qin Hao shook his head, "Patriarch Gongsun, don’t bother. I don’t need anything."

"Then where would Mr. Qin like to sit?" Gongsun Hong continued to ask.

Qin Hao glanced around, every seat was occupied. Moreover, he had no intention of sitting down, and smiled, "No need for courtesy, I’m not planning to rest."

"Then what does Mr. Qin intend to do?" Gongsun Hong asked knowingly.

Qin Hao was still smiling, but his smile had an aggressive edge, "I want to borrow the Gongsun Family’s Celestial Dragon Order, I ask everyone to please oblige."

With these words, the atmosphere suddenly changed, the elder’s gazes grew cold, the young generation showed anger, but Gongsun Hong’s smile remained unchanged.

However you looked, his smile seemed somewhat stiff: "Mr. Qin, don’t you think this is a bit excessive?"

Qin Hao nodded seriously, "It is a bit excessive, I thought about rent and the like, but considering you’re too wealthy, you wouldn’t miss such a small thing. So, I had no choice but to resort to this."

Gongsun Hong clasped his hands, resting them in front of his mouth, looking very serious, "Then do you think we would lend it, Mr. Qin?"

Qin Hao said sternly: "Objectively speaking, of course, you wouldn’t want to lend it. But, I believe everyone in the Gongsun Family is smart, so you will overcome your emotions and lend it to me rationally, right?"

Though the tone of this sentence was gentle, it contained blatant arrogance and threat.

Everyone present held high positions and power, Qin Hao’s words were no less than a threat, how could they endure it?

An elder shouted angrily: "Arrogant!"

Another elder shouted: "There have been many who looked down on the Gongsun Family, and now they are all dead!"

Qin Hao wasn’t scared, instead, he gestured dismissively: "Why react so aggressively? I’m just here to borrow something and you’re talking about fighting, what’s that about?"

Bam!

With a muffled sound, Gongsun Qiang slapped the table and stood up: "Qin Hao, scram as far as you can, the Gongsun Family doesn’t fear you whether you play soft or hard!"

He was truly agitated.

If it were usual, with his seniority, he wouldn’t have much authority to speak or represent the Gongsun Family with such bravado.

But today, the older generation was all very angry, to maintain composure, they allowed Gongsun Qiang to take the lead.

Gongsun Qiang’s wrath did not frighten Qin Hao. He nodded earnestly: "That’s true, the Gongsun Family is big and powerful, indeed has the right to play tough. Then, I’ll take my leave first."

With that, he turned and walked away slowly, even after leaving the door, everyone was somewhat puzzled.

Is this Qin Hao, he just left? 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

The elders glanced at each other, the young folks were at a loss.

Initially, Gongsun Qiang was also confused, but soon sneered disdainfully: "Just a coward afraid to die!"

Beside him, Gongsun Rou smiled: "I don’t think so. His real purpose today is definitely not to borrow the Celestial Dragon Order."

"Then what was he planning to do!" Gongsun Qiang’s tone was somewhat intense: "Gongsun Rou, you always boost others’ morale, could it be you’re planning to betray the family?"

Gongsun Rou, as his name suggests, had a handsome but gentle face.

He smiled softly: "Gongsun Qiang, don’t be like a cock ready to fight. We’re all adults, throwing around accusations like this is useless."

"Hmph!" Gongsun Qiang snorted coldly, asking a young man beside him, "Brother Hu, what do you think Qin Hao is up to?"

It turned out, there was a young man sitting next to Gongsun Qiang all along.

This young man had never uttered a word, just sat there quietly. However, no one dared to ignore him.

Because he was the brightest star in the Gongsun Family, once single-handedly saved several companies on the verge of bankruptcy.

Entrusted with managing those struggling companies by the Gongsun Family.

This was a test handed down by the Gongsun Family to its members.

Gongsun Hu’s exceptional abilities earned him recognition from the higher-ups, thus genuinely bringing him into the board.

The Board was composed of Gongsun Family elders, the youngest being over fifty years old.

Gongsun Hu entered at just over thirty, showing how formidable his capabilities were.

Gongsun Hu sat quietly without speaking, Gongsun Hong asked: "Xiao Hu, share your thoughts."

Gongsun Hu, the family’s business genius, even the patriarch dared not underestimate him, often seeking his advice.

Gongsun Hu thought for a moment and said: "I can’t see through his true intention. If I had to guess, I’d say he came to observe the Gongsun Family."

"Observe?" Everyone looked puzzled.

Gongsun Hu explained: "In a battle between two forces, knowing oneself and the enemy greatly increases the chances of victory."

Everyone came to understand at this point.

Gongsun Qiang didn’t believe it: "Brother Hu means that person is preparing for war, came to gather intelligence?"

Gongsun Hu silently nodded, Gongsun Rou’s eyes lit up: "I see, I just felt like his gaze was wandering, as if observing the atmosphere of the Gongsun Family."

"Bold!" An elder disdained with rage: "A mere Martial Artist dares to wage war on us, this Qin Hao really doesn’t know his limits!"

The scene descended into friction, everyone thought Gongsun Hu’s reasoning was very accurate.

Gongsun Hong thought the same, he asked: "Xiao Hu, what do you think we should do?"

Gongsun Hu replied concisely: "Inform everyone to enter alert mode."

"Is it necessary? Clearly, the war hasn’t started yet!" Someone opposed.

Gongsun Hu’s tone was very serious: "From his past exploits, it’s evident Qin Hao is a decisive person. Whether it’s the Qian Family, Zhao Family, they all fell to his unexpected ’lightning war.’ To withstand his attack, we must be ready, without any laxity!"
