After serving three years in prison, he swept across the land upon his release.

Huating Bund Restaurant, Diamond Room.

Led by the waiter, Qin Wuchen pushed open the door to the private room, where the aroma of food wafted out. Su Ningxue and Xia Tong were already waiting at the table.

"Mr. Qin, you've finally arrived. We've been waiting for you for a long time." Su Ningxue, who was sitting at the table, immediately stood up. She was wearing a red dress, revealing her fair, bare shoulders.

"Miss Su is so hospitable, how could I not come?" Qin Wuchen replied with a smile and sat down at the table.

The table was laden with a variety of sumptuous dishes, including lobster, caviar, venison, salmon, and bottles of red cocktails—the standard fare for a diamond suite.

"Miss Su, let's get straight to the point and talk about the basic salary for working at the Martial Arts Association." Qin Wuchen asked directly.

Su Ningxue smiled and nodded, her expression calm. She took a folder from her bag and handed it to Qin Wuchen.

"Mr. Qin, we will offer you a salary of 70 million annually, the highest salary for an A-level martial arts instructor. What do you think?"

Qin Wuchen quietly examined the document in his hand. He quickly browsed through it until he reached the page with the salary terms and confirmed that the annual salary was seventy million before he felt relieved.

"Sure, Miss Su is very efficient." Qin Wuchen replied softly, then readily signed his name on the document.

The instructors at the Martial Arts Academy are divided into five levels: C, B, D, A, and S.

Among them, S-level teachers must make significant contributions to the martial arts world to apply, so judging from Qin Wuchen's status, A-level is indeed the highest level he can hold, and 70 million is also the highest salary he can currently receive.

"Mr. Qin seems to be in dire need of money," Su Ningxue said, taking the documents Qin Wuchen handed her. "If Mr. Qin is in such a hurry for money, I actually have a more lucrative job here."

"Oh?" Qin Wuchen raised his eyebrows, immediately becoming interested. "Tell me, what kind of job do you do?"

"It's actually very simple..." Su Ningxue paused for a moment, "As long as Mr. Qin marries me, my assets will become Mr. Qin's assets, and Mr. Qin will naturally never lack money..."

"Huh?" Qin Wuchen exclaimed inwardly, his eyes widening, while Su Ningxue continued to look at him with a half-smile.

"What do you think, Mr. Qin? Would you like to consider it? After all, with your talent and learning, it would be a huge waste for you to be a live-in son-in-law in the Jiang family..."

"Heh, Miss Su, you really know how to joke. We've only met twice, and you're already asking me to marry you?" Qin Wuchen chuckled dryly, then took a sip of water from the table to cover his embarrassment.

"Of course! Mr. Qin is an outstanding person, I'm too proud to even mention it!" Su Ningxue raised her voice, her tone firm.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Wuchen almost spat out the water in his mouth. He covered his mouth and wiped his lips with a tissue.

Taking the opportunity, Su Ningxue moved her seat forward and stood in front of Qin Wuchen, stretching her head towards him. Qin Wuchen could almost feel her breath on his cheek.

"Mr. Qin, don't you like Ningxue?" Su Ningxue ran her finger along Qin Wuchen's white shirt. "Compared to Jiang Hanzhang's beauty, I certainly don't think I'm inferior to her, and in bed, I'm just as good!"

The provocative actions and words startled Qin Wuchen, who broke out in a cold sweat. He took a step back and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Miss Su, I'm a respectable person. Your kind of temptation has no effect on me."

"Oh? Is that so?" Su Ningxue's lips curled up and she chuckled. "Then why is Mr. Qin running away? I'm not going to eat you. Since Mr. Qin doesn't have any feelings for Ningxue, I naturally won't force him."

"That's good, that's good..."

Qin Wuchen returned to his seat, still shaken. He took a big gulp of water and ate some caviar before he could calm down.

In his memory, Su Ningxue was a typical ice queen who had rejected the pursuit of the eldest son of the Li family and the marriage alliance with the Xiao family. Now it seems that she has another side that no one knows about.

"I'll have to be careful when dealing with this guy in the future..." Qin Wuchen thought to himself.

"Alright, Teacher Qin, I've finished processing the documents. Xia Tong will take you to the martial arts school to teach later. I have other things to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

Su Ningxue signed the document, then packed her things and stood up.

"Teacher Qin?" Qin Wuchen was taken aback and asked subconsciously.

"Didn't you know? I'm also a student at the martial arts school, so from tonight onwards, I'll be your disciple. I'll come to the school to learn whenever I have time."

"Also, Xia Tong is your assistant instructor. If you have any questions, just go directly to her."

After speaking, Su Ningxue walked out of the private room.

Xia Tong sat upright and serious. She was still wearing a black windbreaker, with two long knives at her feet. Her face was wrapped in bandages, which were the wounds left from the last fight.

"Has Teacher Qin finished eating?" Xia Tong suddenly asked.

Qin Wuchen was eating a large lobster on the table when he glanced up at it before replying, "No rush, I haven't had enough of you yet. It's still early, we can go to the martial arts gym a little later."

"There's less than an hour left, Ms. Qin, please be mindful of your time."

"That's natural, Teacher Xia."

Qin Wuchen smiled with narrowed eyes, then began to eat the large lobster on the table. This was a delicacy air-freighted from Australia, something he rarely got to eat at the Jiang family's house. Today, he was determined to take this opportunity to indulge himself.

A few minutes later, Qin Wuchen had almost finished all the food on the table. He patted his belly with satisfaction and stood up.

"I'm done eating, let's go to the martial arts gym..."

The two then got into a pre-arranged van and drove towards the city center.

......

Downtown, the Third Martial Arts Hall.

Several teenagers, dressed in black and red martial arts uniforms, sat in a row early in the training ground of the club.

They sat upright on the prayer cushions, some resting with their eyes closed, while others chatted quietly.

"Hey, do you think our new teacher is reliable? I've never heard of him before," one of the women whispered in the other's ear.

The woman shook her head: "I don't know. I only found out this morning that we're changing teachers. Although Teacher Zhong is old and frail, he is still a rare half-step martial arts seventh realm level. Apart from S-level teachers, I haven't heard of anyone in Yunhai City who is more powerful than him."

"Sigh, I guess he got promoted through connections. I wonder what his relationship is with the Su family that made Su Ningxue personally issue the order."

"Perhaps... he might be his lover..."

"Hehehe..."

The two women couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh, and a man who heard this couldn't help but turn his head and glare at them.

"Hey, what are you talking about? Our Su family would never do such a thing!"

His name was Su Mufeng, the eldest son of the Su family. He was displeased to hear people talking about the Su family behind his back.

Su Mufeng's lewd power made the two women tremble with fear, and they immediately shrank back, remaining silent.

"Quiet!"

The argument between the three caught the attention of Zhong He, who was meditating. He slightly opened his eyes and glanced at the three. His sharp gaze startled the disciples, and the murmurs immediately ceased.

Zhong He's temples are gray. Although he is 72 years old, his majesty still remains as a peak martial artist of the sixth realm.

Just as everyone was meditating, footsteps finally sounded outside the dojo. Xia Tong led a young man in, which immediately attracted the attention of the students present.
