"Then should we...?"
As Qin Hao spoke, he made a throat-slitting gesture. But before he could even finish the motion, Qin Chongming slapped him squarely on the back of the head.
"Idiot! Are you trying to make the Chu and Gu families join forces and turn on us? This Shen Nian... she is indeed a bit special. Go. Investigate her thoroughly for me. I especially want to know why the Gu family values her so much. But don't you dare make any rash moves for now. Just investigate. Don't do anything else!"
"I understand. I'll get right on it."
Watching Qin Hao's retreating back, Qin Chongming sighed. 'I once thought my eldest son had promise,' he mused. 'But after seeing him today, it's clear he's no match for that young man from the Gu family.'
Qin Chongming clenched his fists, his expression turning colder.
