424: Chapter 424: Success Depends on the Person, Fortune Depends on Heaven!

Qin Han nodded his head, indicating that he understood, before turning to glance at Ming Xizhi.

Seeing this, Ming Xizhi hurriedly said, “Let me clear this up first, no one from the Ming family was involved in the last incident!

If I wanted something, I would have come directly to you!”

“I didn’t say you were involved, what are you nervous about?” Qin Han said, rolling his eyes.

Ming Xizhi looked at Qin Han with contempt and said, “Who doesn’t know you’re petty?

If I don’t say it, what if you hold a grudge against me?”

“Pfft!” Hearing their conversation, Song Yuwei couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

To think that the esteemed Governor of a province would accuse Qin Han of being petty.

“Continue, I’m in a hurry!” Qin Han said with an annoyed glance at Ming Xizhi.

At his words, Ming Xizhi continued, “Above the eight great families, there are actually two other families who rarely get involved in the disputes among the eight great families and have always remained neutral—the Ling and Zhang families!”

“This is the Old Master’s birthday banquet.

Your Ming family wants to win over these two families, right?” Qin Han said indifferently.

Ming Xizhi was not at all embarrassed by Qin Han’s remark and candidly said, “Exactly, the Ling family has always been on good terms with the Ming family, only they do not wish to get involved with the other three families.

So this time, we mainly want to improve relations with the Zhang family.”

“Do you think there’s any hope?” Qin Han asked indifferently.

After pondering for a moment, Ming Xizhi said, “Success depends on human effort, while failure is left to fate.

It would be best if we could make further progress, but it’s not the end of the world if we don’t.”

“Do you really see it that way?” Qin Han asked Ming Xizhi, teasing him.

Suddenly lighting up a cigarette, Ming Xizhi took a deep drag and said, “I’ve found your way of handling things quite refreshing after being around you for a while.

To be honest, I’ve become somewhat tired of this lifestyle.

Someone from the Ming family has to take charge eventually, and since my second brother only likes to work in the military, it has to be me.”

“In the past, I always thought about climbing up the ranks, hoping that higher positions would allow me to do more for the people while also preserving my family’s status.

Now, I’m rather indifferent to these ambitions.”

“Although you’re not exactly personable, I quite like being in your company!” Ming Xizhi said with a smile.

Qin Han rolled his eyes and said, “Are you complimenting me or insulting me?”

After he finished, both of them laughed.

Ming Xizhi and Qin Han were exceptional individuals in their own right and even thought along similar lines sometimes, so they often found themselves agreeing on the same point when discussing matters.

Just like a moment ago, when Qin Han asked Ming Xizhi if there was hope, Song Yuwei, who was standing by, thought Qin Han was asking about the chances of winning over the Zhang family.

But Ming Xizhi knew that Qin Han was asking if there was hope for him to progress further!

Perhaps this is what people mean by a true confidant!

“If you need help with anything, just let me know.

Although you can be annoying at times, I’m willing to help you for the sake of the people of the Central Plains,” Qin Han said with a smile.

Hearing this, Ming Xizhi rolled his eyes and said to Song Yuwei, “Miss Song, you see I was right about him being petty, don’t you think?”

Song Yuwei pursed her lips and smiled on the side.

This guy really was something.

Ming Xizhi had just said Qin Han was disagreeable, and Qin Han immediately retorted that Ming Xizhi was annoying, clearly looking to even the score.

“You’d better arrange for someone to protect him tonight.

I don’t want to be blamed for someone else’s actions,” Qin Han said to Ming Xizhi in a more serious tone after the joke.

“Huh?” Ming Xizhi looked at Qin Han, extremely puzzled.

“Fighting and killing is too tiring, I’ve been cultivating my character and well-being lately, so I really have no plans to make a move on him!” Qin Han said with a laugh.

“You’re serious?” Ming Xizhi still doubted Qin Han and couldn’t help but ask after scrutinizing him several times, “Those guys you dealt with last time are still too scared to leave their homes!”

“You think I’d lie just for the fun of it?” Qin Han replied, clearly annoyed.

With that, he took Song Yuwei’s hand and left without further ado.

Ming Xizhi watched Qin Han’s retreating figure, smacking his lips.

Could it be that the guy really had changed his stripes?

Unscientific, huh?

When did this kid become so magnanimous?

Could he have not held back some nasty trick?

Having done what needed to be done, Qin Han really had no reason to seek out Zhang Feng.

Instead, he was more concerned that someone might use this incident to target Zhang Feng and, in the end, make him take the blame.

The vast Zhang family definitely had their enemies, didn’t they?

As for him, the last thing he liked was taking the blame for others.

And with the eight great families engaged in open and secret strife, if someone with ulterior motives used tonight’s confrontation between him and Zhang Feng, getting himself involved would be very troublesome.

Qin Han wasn’t afraid, he was annoyed!

On the bustling streets of the capital, Qin Han and Song Yuwei sat in the car arranged by Ming Xizhi to take them to the hotel.

Song Yuwei looked at Qin Han and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me about the last incident?

The heirs of these great families in Long Country all showed up.”

“Why tell you?

It would only make you worry.

Just dealing with it is enough!” Qin Han said with a smile.

Song Yuwei looked annoyed.

Sure, she was worried, but she needed to know.

How could this guy keep such a big thing from her?

Just as Song Yuwei was about to make a scene, a faint arc formed at the corners of Qin Han’s mouth.

He pulled Song Yuwei into his embrace and said softly,

“It’s truly just a trifle.

You should know that no one has yet been born who can trouble your man.”

“Hmm?” Song Yuwei turned her gaze to Qin Han, and thinking about his mysterious ways, she felt somewhat relieved.

It seemed like, from beginning to end, Qin Han really hadn’t suffered any major losses!

The military officer driving the car glanced at them in the rearview mirror with a faint smile on his face; he knowingly closed the partition between the driver’s cabin and the back.

In cars like the one owned by people such as Ming Xizhi, there were typically partitions like this for sound and visibility to afford privacy when some conversations weren’t meant for the driver’s ears.

Seeing this, Qin Han inwardly praised, “Smart!”

“Sometimes I really doubt if you’re really my husband,” said Song Yuwei somewhat dazedly!

Ever since Qin Han had changed, he had become completely different towards her; not only was he incredibly attentive, but he also valued her more than his own life.

While his personality wasn’t as violent as before, it was still domineering, and those incredible abilities seemed to have sprung up out of nowhere, unbelievable as it all was.

Yet, he was indeed real.

She wouldn’t be foolish enough to really believe Qin Han’s story about dreaming.

Upon hearing her words, Qin Han held Song Yuwei even tighter, “Of course I am.

I promised I would never let you be hurt again, and I intend to keep that promise.”

His soul hadn’t changed; it was merely in a different body.

“Hmm,” Song Yuwei responded with a gentle nod, followed by a faint smile.

Why was she suddenly entertaining such unrealistic thoughts?

Who else could he be if not Qin Han?

“So, is this matter just going to be left as it is?” Song Yuwei looked at Qin Han and asked!

“Of course not, you’ll know in due time!” An almost imperceptible smile appeared on Qin Han’s lips.

“You mean that slap you gave him?” Song Yuwei’s eyes lit up.

“How else could you be my wife?” Qin Han winked.

Indeed, the one who knew him best was still Song Yuwei.

“Humph, stop it.

There’s something else I want to ask you.

What’s going on between you and Ling Yarou?” Song Yuwei asked with a suspicious look at Qin Han!

A bitter arc emerged on Qin Han’s lips; he couldn’t hide anything from Song Yuwei’s eyes.

If that was the case, there seemed to be no need to keep hiding this matter from Song Yuwei.

After all, many misunderstandings stemmed from concealment.

Just as Qin Han was about to come clean, an unexpected event occurred.
