This Is My Boyfriend

"You handle the matters here. Have someone thoroughly investigate this Zhao Zhenghao. Let him spend the rest of his life locked up inside."

Qin Ning looked at Zhou De and said calmly, "Also, from now on, just have someone hand over the demolition of these old residential areas directly to the Feiya Group."

"Understood, Young Master Qin."

Zhou De wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It was his first time seeing Qin Ning truly angry, which showed that Qin Ning was genuinely very dissatisfied with this matter.

The heads of various departments who had come along with Zhou De were completely dumbfounded seeing the dignified top official being so respectful to such a young man.

Since when did Liu City have such a prominent figure?

Why had they never heard of him before?

...

Soon, Qin Ning and Su Xingwan returned to the villa.

Qin Fei and the others were still watching TV. Qin Ning sat on the sofa and chatted with them for a while before going upstairs to cultivate.

It wasn't until early the next morning that Qin Ning received several phone calls.

They were from Zhou De and Du Ya respectively.

The former called to report on last night's matters, while the latter called to express her gratitude.

After hanging up, Qin Ning went downstairs and joined Qin Fei and the others for breakfast.

His phone rang again.

He picked it up and saw it was Jiang Yunshan calling.

Upon answering, Jiang Yunshan first reported on his cultivation progress over the recent period.

It had to be said that he was indeed very talented and worthy of being taken in as a disciple by Qin Ning. In less than a short month, Jiang Yunshan had actually reached the fourth stage of the Body Refining Realm.

Not only had his body undergone tremendous improvements in all aspects, but his whole person had also become somewhat younger due to the increase in strength.

If this trend continued, should Jiang Yunshan successfully reach the Pulse Condensation Realm, he might even revert to looking like he was around thirty years old.

In fact, Qin Ning was fully capable of making him younger directly, but he chose not to do so.

Instead, he wanted Jiang Yunshan to change through his own efforts.

This would give the other party a greater sense of achievement.

"Master, Yanran found a special stone over in E Province. It is very likely the kind you mentioned before. I wonder if you, old sir, would like to go and see it in person? Or should I just have someone buy it and ship it to Liu City for you?" Jiang Yunshan suddenly said over the phone.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Qin Ning's interest was piqued. "Where is it?"

"Wudang Mountain."

His granddaughter, Jiang Yanran, happened to go on a study tour to Wudang Mountain a few days ago, found a stone there, and even sent a photo over.

"There's no need to ship it over, it takes too much time. I'll head over myself," Qin Ning said after a moment of thought.

Soon, after hanging up, he briefly explained the matter to Qin Fei and the others, kept them company until breakfast was finished, and finally left the villa alone.

It was quite a distance from Liu City to E Province, but to Qin Ning, this was not a problem at all.

He flew over at top speed. About ten minutes later, Qin Ning landed in a deserted area at the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Then, he directly dialed Jiang Yanran's number. After learning that she was staying in a hotel not far from the foot of the mountain and getting the address, Qin Ning headed straight for the hotel to meet up with her first.

"Young Master Qin, have you had breakfast?"

At the hotel entrance, Jiang Yanran had waited there immediately after receiving the call.

Upon seeing Qin Ning, she hurried over to greet him.

She had been extremely surprised when she received the call just now.

She knew there was a high probability that Qin Ning would come in person, but she never expected him to arrive so quickly. Could it be that after she told her grandfather about the stone last night, her grandfather informed Qin Ning, and then he caught an overnight flight here?

Obviously, although Jiang Yanran knew Qin Ning was extraordinary, she had no idea that he was even capable of flight.

"I've eaten. If you are hungry, eat something first. I'll wait," Qin Ning nodded gently.

"Okay."

Jiang Yanran smiled and then led him to the second floor of the hotel.

This was a buffet dining area. Anyone staying at the hotel could eat here for free using their room card.

Jiang Yanran had been hiking up and down Wudang Mountain these past few days, so naturally, her appetite had grown significantly.

When she woke up this morning, her stomach was already rumbling non-stop.

At an empty table, after selecting her food, Jiang Yanran sat with Qin Ning, chatting about the stone while eating.

"Yanran, what a coincidence. Are you going up the mountain again today?"

Just then, a young man walked over from nearby.

Fang Mingrui, like Jiang Yanran, was also a student at Guangning University.

This study tour was organized by the university, so Jiang Yanran wasn't the only one here; nearly a hundred students had come in total.

Like Bai Chenghao from before, Fang Mingrui was also one of Jiang Yanran's suitors. Moreover, his family conditions were excellent. They did massive business over in E Province, with family assets nearing a hundred billion.

Although he was a native of E Province, he attended university in Guangning City.

"What does it have to do with you?" Jiang Yanran scoffed lightly, her attitude toward Fang Mingrui appearing rather cold.

Because of her outstanding looks and the fact that her family was the wealthiest in Xi Province, suitors like Fang Mingrui were countless at school.

However, Jiang Yanran was extremely disgusted by this Fang Mingrui. Who in the university didn't know he was a notorious playboy?

Hearing Jiang Yanran's words, Fang Mingrui's expression darkened slightly. He then shifted his gaze to Qin Ning sitting beside her. "Who is this guy? Is he also from our university?"

"Is it any of your business?"

Jiang Yanran sneered. Then, rolling her eyes as if thinking of something, she directly wrapped her arm around Qin Ning's and said, "This is my boyfriend. Please stop bothering me from now on. I already have a boyfriend, got it?"

"Your boyfriend?"

Hearing this, Fang Mingrui froze for a moment, then frowned deeply, his face turning much uglier. "How come I've never heard of you having a boyfriend? Who is he? Is he worthy of you?"

The more he spoke, the more displeased he felt in his heart. "In what way am I, Fang Mingrui, not worthy of you?"

"My dad is one of the top ten richest men in E Province, and my second uncle is the governor of E Province. Whether in terms of family background or anything else, am I any worse than your Jiang family?"

"You didn't choose me, but instead chose a poor kid like him?"

"Fang Mingrui, watch your mouth. Don't blame me for not warning you, beware that trouble issues from the mouth. These things you are so proud of mean nothing to me, and in front of Young Master Qin, they are not even worth mentioning." Jiang Yanran stood up.

Hearing this, Fang Mingrui laughed out of sheer anger. With his second uncle serving as the governor of E Province and concurrently holding the position of Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, who else in the entire E Province, besides the top leader, could compare to him?

"What Young Master Qin? Is there such a figure in the country? And you say I'm not even worth mentioning in his eyes?"

Fang Mingrui scoffed. With his head held high, he swept a condescending gaze over Qin Ning and Jiang Yanran, continuing, "Crushing him to death would be as easy as squashing a mere ant. Do you believe me?"

"Is that right? I really don't."

Qin Ning smiled, his gaze resting calmly upon his opponent.
