Chapter 678: Chapter 678: Who is Qin Jianlin, Get Out and Speak!!

"You bitch, do you have any idea the Han Family is coming for you tomorrow?" Qin Youwei stared at Qin Luoli, who was reading a book, her eyes burning with jealousy.

Marrying into the Han Family!

That was the dream of every woman in Demon City. Although the Qin Family was considered a top-tier powerhouse in Demon City, even the greatest noble families were said to fall within three hundred years. In recent decades, the Qin Family had been in decline. If not for the support of a Grandmaster, they would have been devoured piece by piece until nothing was left.

After all, Demon City had more than one Grandmaster. What great family didn’t have one presiding over it?

As the daughter of such a family, Qin Youwei had been indoctrinated from a young age with the idea that she must sacrifice everything for the family. Having grown accustomed to a life of luxury, the prospect of the family’s decline was her greatest fear. Only by remaining powerful could they enjoy eternal prosperity. And marrying into another great family was a clear path to forging a powerful alliance.

Originally, Qin Youwei had a chance, but then Qin Luoli appeared out of nowhere.

How could this bitch from a branch family, one cast out eight hundred years ago, possibly be favored by the Han Family? And that worthless husband of hers dared to slap her? Outrageous!

As she dwelled on these thoughts, a vicious resentment flashed in Qin Youwei’s eyes.

However, faced with her fury, Qin Luoli remained perfectly calm, paying her no mind at all. To Qin Luoli, even exchanging a single word with such a tedious person felt like a waste of time.

"You bitch, are you still putting on an act in front of me?"

Seeing Qin Luoli’s indifference, Qin Youwei’s rage intensified. She sneered, "You don’t even know, do you? Your parents, imprisoned by our Qin Family long ago, are on the verge of death! And you, you’re about to be married off, a stepping stone for the rise of our Qin Family!"

Qin Luoli’s eyes flickered for a fraction of a second.

"Perhaps you haven’t heard. Your parents were poisoned a long time ago!" Qin Youwei roared with laughter. "The day you marry into the Han Family is the day your parents die a miserable death!"

At last, Qin Luoli reacted. She turned and looked quietly at Qin Youwei.

"What? Angry?" Seeing a response, Qin Youwei grew even more smug. "Feeling the urge to hit me? Go on. I dare you." She laughed arrogantly. "Or do you think that useless husband you found will actually dare to come and save you? If he dares to show up, he’s a dead man!"

"Then... shall we wait and see?" Qin Luoli said, her voice deceptively calm.

But anyone who knew her would understand that she was furious.

"Wait and see?" Qin Youwei, clearly enraged by Qin Luoli’s defiance, shrieked, "What right do you have to speak to me like that? You slut!"

Cursing, Qin Youwei raised her hand to strike.

With a sharp SLAP, a pristine white hand struck Qin Youwei hard across the face, her cheek swelling instantly.

"You... you dared to hit me?" Qin Youwei clutched her face, staring at Qin Luoli in disbelief, her expression twisting into a savage snarl. "You slut, you actually dared to hit me? You have a death wish!"

"Get out," Qin Luoli said, her voice ice-cold. "Say one more word, and I’ll make you regret the day you were born."

"I’ll kill you!"

Clearly provoked, Qin Youwei lunged forward.

"Miss, you mustn’t!" The guard at the door rushed in and pulled Qin Youwei back. "The Family Head said that nothing can happen to her before the Han Family arrives!"

"So I’m supposed to just take that beating for nothing?" Qin Youwei’s glare was terrifying.

"Miss, don’t worry," the guard said with a placating smile. "Once she’s married into the Han Family, there will be endless ways to make her suffer. Why bother with her now?"

"You’re right." Qin Youwei shot a cold smirk at Qin Luoli. "Slut, let’s see how long you can stay so smug!" Turning to the guard, she commanded, "Watch her closely!"

After Qin Youwei left, Qin Luoli let out a quiet sigh. She had deliberately provoked Qin Youwei, hoping she would attack.

If she dares to attack, the item in my hand will activate. He should be able to sense it then. Husband, where are you? Luo Li misses you so much...

Early the next morning, the gates of the Qin Family Manor were bustling with a constant stream of vehicles and visitors. Guests from the great families of Demon City came and went, and among them were even a number of high-ranking government officials. Not to mention the countless celebrities from the business world.

However weakened the Qin Family had become, they were still one of Demon City’s elites. And today was the day of their marital alliance with the Han Family, so it was only natural for all the major powers to send representatives with their congratulations.

Some within the Qin Family had argued against such a grand display, pointing out that the bride wasn’t from the main lineage. But the counter-argument won out. The Han Family was at the height of its power in Demon City; if the Qins couldn’t put on a grand enough affair, wouldn’t they lose face? Besides, it was an excellent opportunity to expand the family’s influence. The reasoning was solid, and even the objectors eventually nodded in agreement.

The Qin Family Manor was draped in festive decorations, filled with a joyous atmosphere. As the current Family Head of the Qin Family, Qin Jianlin was swamped with the duty of welcoming guests from every direction.

But many guests noticed that the Family Head seemed rather unhappy today.

"Did Family Head Qin not rest well last night?" asked Master Quan, the concerned leader of a small vassal family.

Another patriarch chuckled. "That’s an understatement, Master Quan. As the Family Head, Master Qin has countless things to worry about. Still, Family Head Qin, even on a joyous day like this, you must take care of yourself."

Everyone chimed in with their concerns, their words dripping with undisguised flattery.

Qin Jianlin managed a faint smile and thanked them for their kindness, but he couldn’t bring himself to feel happy.

The reason was simple.

Last night, the Qin Family’s Third Master had his head chopped off and delivered to their doorstep. The killer even sent a message: the Qin Family should wash their necks and wait for death.

Outrageous! Presumptuous! Brazen!

These days, there are too many reckless fools, frogs in a well who don’t know their place! Even though my Qin Family has declined, we’re not a family that just anyone can trample on!

"Brother, there’s trouble!"

The Qin Family’s Second Master had just returned. Without even taking a sip of water, he went straight to Qin Jianlin, his expression grim.

"What is it?" Qin Jianlin’s brow furrowed. After the previous night’s incident, his Second Master had led an investigation, and his immediate return with such a statement was ominous.

The Second Master lowered his voice. "Everyone at the factory is dead. Even Xiao Wei is gone. It’s more than likely he’s dead."

"What?" Qin Jianlin was stunned. "Did you find out who did it?"

The Second Master’s voice was grave. "No. The killer was meticulous. Not a single clue was left behind."

"What about Qin Hongshu and his wife?"

"They’re gone, too."

Qin Jianlin took a deep breath, a chilling light entering his eyes. "Do you think it was one of *those* families?"

"Unlikely," the Second Master said, shaking his head. "First, they don’t have the guts. Second, even if they did, they wouldn’t make a move now. Attacking today isn’t just an act against our Qin Family; it would also be an offense against the Han Family."

A cold glint flickered in Qin Jianlin’s eyes. "It seems some suicidal mutt has set its sights on my Qin Family."

"Who is Qin Jianlin? Get out here!"
