You were made to take the blame and go to jail, but you weren't made a master of both medicine

next day!

Chu Group.

Chu Zhenlong was still watching yesterday's press conference held by the Black Emperor Consortium.

Qin Ran did not appear at all; Gu Xinrou organized the press conference and spoke throughout.

This made Chu Zhenlong speculate about the relationship between Qin Ran and the Black Emperor Consortium.

At the same time, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Chu Jindong pushed open the door and walked in: "Dad, this document needs your signature."

Chu Zhenlong took the document, glanced at it, and then signed his name.

"You're still watching this video?" Chu Jindong said with a smile.

"Haven't you ever thought about what the relationship is between Qin Ran and the Black Emperor Consortium?" Chu Zhenlong asked.

Chu Jindong frowned: "All I know is that he and Gu Xinrou are close."

"No matter how good their relationship is, Gu Xinrou would not hold a press conference for Qin Ran in the name of the Black Emperor Consortium."

"You mean Qin Ran is a member of the Black Emperor Consortium?"

Chu Zhenlong said, "Anyone with eyes can see that I'm starting to regret it now."

"Regret what?"

"I regret that when Qin Ran came to our door with the marriage certificate, I looked down on his status as a convict and didn't marry Wan'er to him," Chu Zhenlong sighed.

Chu Jindong smiled and said, "Qin Ran and Qingcheng are a couple too. He said before that he would finish dealing with his own affairs within a year and then marry Qingcheng."

"I hope he keeps his word. I'm getting old and it's time to think about the future. If Qin Ran becomes our Chu family's son-in-law, it will be a great help to us."

"That's what I think too, but..." Chu Jindong hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

"Speak your mind."

"As you know, Sun Qing and Wan'er have always been against Qin Ran and Qingcheng being together. You know what their motives are."

"Jin Dong, Sun Qing is your wife, and there are some things I can't say too much, but I hope you understand that Sun Qing's goal is to use Wan'er to control the Chu family, but you should know that the Chu family's surname is Chu, not Sun."

"So you always have to think about the big picture. It's just a pity that Yunfei is such a disappointment, otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a difficult position."

Chu Zhenlong sighed after he finished speaking.

Chu Yunfei is Chu Jinming's son.

He is also Chu Zhenlong's only grandson.

Logically, he should have placed all his hopes on this grandson.

However, Chu Yunfei's performance in the business world was mediocre.

This child is too playful and unlikely to amount to much.

In addition, Sun Qing has been secretly helping Chu Wan'er, which has given Chu Wan'er an important position on the board of directors.

Chu Wan'er is also a member of the Chu family.

She can still take over the Chu family business in the future.

However, Chu Zhenlong knew Sun Qing's ambition.

Sun Qing attempted to control the Chu family through Chu Wan'er.

Chu Zhenlong absolutely could not agree to this.

He hadn't held out much hope for Chu Qingcheng before.

Because Chu Qingcheng is an illegitimate child.

But Qin Ran's appearance changed his mind.

If Qin Ran could marry Chu Qingcheng.

With his help, Chu Qingcheng will surely be able to govern the Chu family well.

With Chu Jindong's help, a powerful trio will be formed.

This is the scene Chu Zhenlong hoped to see.

Chu Jindong naturally understood the old man's intentions.

"Dad, don't worry. I know what's important and what's not. When the time comes, I won't act on emotion."

"That's best. You can go ahead and get back to work."

"Okay, I'll get back to work now." Chu Jindong turned and left.

……

Meanwhile, the Black Emperor Consortium.

Qin Ran brought Su Qingyi to the office.

"This will be your office from now on. You can work here," Qin Ran said with a smile.

Su Qingyi looked around and said, "It's nice, I really like this place."

At this moment, Gu Xinrou came in: "Qingyi, to celebrate your appointment as the vice president of the Xijing branch of the Black Emperor Group, I've specially prepared a cocktail party for you tonight. You must dress up for it!"

"Thank you so much, Mr. Gu."

"We're all family, no need to be so polite. I've also invited some business luminaries tonight, so they can witness your brilliance."

"You're making me a little nervous."

Qin Ran continued, "Senior sister, let me take you to visit other places."

"OK!"

Afterwards, Qin Ran left the office with Su Qingyi.

It was late afternoon.

Qin Ran, Su Qingyi, and Gu Xinrou arrived at the party.

The invited business luminaries have begun to arrive.

The scene was very lively.

The group exchanged pleasantries and greetings.

Qin Ran spotted several familiar figures in the crowd.

Chu Qingcheng was also present.

She must have come on behalf of the Chu Group.

Qin Ran thought about going over to say hello, but then she thought better of it.

He has to stay with Su Qingyi tonight.

If we go there, things might get unpleasant again later.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall.

This person was none other than Nangong Ze.

He wore a trench coat, dressing himself up as a fighter.

Everyone turned their gazes toward Nangong Ze as he approached.

His news has been all over the media these past few days.

This guy has completely messed up.

He learned a harsh lesson from Qin Ran.

I'm afraid he'll never be able to get up again.

Fu Guonan frowned when he saw Nangong Ze approaching, and he walked over.

"Who sent you here? You know your situation better than anyone. If you're here to seek revenge on Qin Ran, you're doomed. Get out of here now."

Nangong Ze sneered: "Old man, don't talk to me like that. You're no longer qualified to lecture me."

"How dare you! What kind of attitude is that!"

"I don't need you anymore, and I don't want to waste my breath on you. Get lost."

Nangong Ze left after he finished speaking.

Fu Guonan gritted his teeth in anger.

What right does this actor have to speak to him like that?

What he didn't know was that Nangong Ze was no longer the godfather who had always obeyed him.

Nangong Ze, hands behind his back, looked around and suddenly exclaimed, "It's so lively here tonight! Lots of business tycoons have come, just what I wanted! Hahahaha!"

All eyes turned to Nangong Ze.

Qin Ran walked towards us.

It turned out to be Nangong Ze.

He had a mocking look on his face.

"I haven't even settled accounts with you yet, and you've already come knocking on my door."

Nangong Ze sneered: "I came here tonight for two purposes. First, to kill you. Second, to take Su Qingyi away. I want to play with her Pure Yin Holy Body too."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ran's expression changed drastically.

How did Nangong Ze know that Su Qingyi possessed the Pure Yin Holy Body?

Qin Ran quickly realized something was wrong.

This guy's pupils actually turned blood red.

He was surrounded by an evil energy.

"You've fallen into the demonic path?" Qin Ran stared at Nangong Ze with eyes as sharp as knives.

"I'll let you in on a secret: everyone here is going to die tonight."

At the same time, seven or eight security guards surrounded them from all sides.

They were just about to approach.

Nangong Ze extended his palm.

An evil power lingered on his palm.

The two security guards' bodies began to contort.

Their blood was drained in an instant, turning them into two horrifying dried corpses.

The next second, after absorbing the blood, Nangong Ze's pupils became even more blood red.

Upon seeing this, everyone let out piercing screams and rushed towards the door.

Qin Ran reacted quickly, throwing a punch straight at the target.

This punch landed squarely on Nangong Ze's chest.

"Qin Ran, haven't you eaten? You only have this much strength."

Nangong Ze thrust his chest forward, and Qin Ran was instantly blasted away by a powerful force.

After he landed, he stumbled backward for dozens of steps until he crashed into a pillar and stopped.

Qin Ran stared at Nangong Ze across from her with a look of horror.

He actually possesses such strong internal energy.

Qin Ran had killed many members of the demonic path before.

But Nangong Ze is completely different.

Before she knew it, Qin Ran was thinking about what had happened at the resort that day.

He clearly remembered the man in the trench coat saying that the person behind him was Yama Palace.

Presumably, Yama Palace knew that the man in the trench coat's plan had failed, and thus made another move.

They targeted Nangong Ze.

He used Nangong Ze to kill himself.

The guests near the door were startled and ran away.

However, the guests inside the banquet hall didn't have time to escape.

At this moment, they were all hiding behind Qin Ran.

Even Fu Guonan hid behind Qin Ran.

He couldn't believe that his godson had turned out like this.

Everyone looked terrified.

Neither Gu Xinrou nor Su Qingyi expected that an uninvited guest would arrive at the party.

Qin Ran sighed softly: "Nangong Ze, the demonic cultivators possessed your body only to use you to kill me. You are just a pawn for them. Once they've used you, you're still doomed."

"Hahahaha, can I take this as you trying to make peace with me? Actually, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have gained the Blood Demon Lord's favor. From now on, I'm no longer an actor; I will serve the Yama Palace to the death." Nangong Ze's red eyes were fixed on Qin Ran.

Qin Ran also stared at him.

It seems I guessed right.

This guy was also used as a tool by the Yama Palace.

We can no longer sit idly by and wait for our demise.

After we destroy Nangong Ze, it'll be time to go find the Yama Palace...
