What a Coincidence

Pang Zeming walked straight to an empty seat and plopped himself down.

His gaze first swept over Yu Yunhui and the other two before landing on Qin Ning and Jiang Yanran. Waving his hand, he said, You two go wait outside. I have some business to discuss with President Yu and the others.

Hearing this, Qin Ning and Jiang Yanran looked up at Pang Zeming as if they were looking at an idiot.

Jiang Yanran said, If you have business to discuss, find your own place to talk. We are eating here, so why should we go wait outside?

As soon as she said this, Pang Zeming immediately frowned. He had thought it would just take a single command.

He did not expect these two young people to be so tactless.

He snorted coldly and did not say anything to them. Instead, he looked at Yu Yunhui's trio and said, What? Whose juniors are these? They have no manners at all.

Director Pang...

A look of dilemma appeared on Yu Yunhui's face.

In his mind, a special existence like Qin Ning definitely had some background that he could not afford to offend.

But at the same time, as the Secretary-General and Director of the General Office, Pang Zeming was also someone he could not afford to neglect.

After pondering for a moment, he finally said, Director Pang, how about we change to another place...

Hearing this, Pang Zeming immediately became angry. What? They are just two ignorant juniors. Can you not even handle them?

This...

Yu Yunhui's face showed even more difficulty. Director Pang, Young Master Qin is our distinguished guest, not a junior...

Heh, President Yu, you three are really regressing. Since when could two young people become your distinguished guests? Pang Zeming's face showed disdain.

Are you done talking?

Right at this moment, Qin Ning, who had been silent all along, spoke up. His gaze shifted over as he said indifferently, If you are done, get out. Do it before my mood is ruined.

As soon as he said this, the expressions of Yu Yunhui, Lin Caihong, and Li Wenyang all changed.

Obviously, as the Director of the General Office, there were very few people in Hanchang City who could compare to Pang Zeming, let alone afford to offend him.

But now, Qin Ning was directly telling him to get out!

To anyone's ears, these words seemed far too arrogant.

Yu Yunhui narrowed his eyes as various thoughts flashed through his mind.

He knew that Qin Ning possessed special methods and was definitely not the type of tactless young junior. The fact that the other party dared to say such things meant that he truly was not afraid of Pang Zeming.

Lin Caihong and Li Wenyang, on the other hand, did not think this way.

At this moment, both of their faces looked rather ugly. They thought to themselves that they were going to be miserably implicated today, and they began to regret coming to this dinner party in the first place.

If Pang Zeming took his anger out on them because of Qin Ning's words, it would definitely not be easy for them to continue making a living in Hanchang City in the future.

Young man, do you know who you are talking to?

Pang Zeming stood up with a cold face. I do not care who you are or what status you have, but in Hanchang City, offending me is not a wise move.

After saying that, he glanced at Yu Yunhui's trio again and coldly snorted, Keep a close eye on this distinguished guest of yours, and do not let him leave on his own. Later, I will have someone come over to invite him back for tea.

With that said, Pang Zeming angrily left the private room.

Young Master Qin, I am truly sorry...

Yu Yunhui looked at Qin Ning with an apologetic face.

It is fine, let us eat first, Qin Ning waved his hand and said with a calm and composed expression.

Seeing him like this, Lin Caihong and Li Wenyang were extremely puzzled.

They did not understand why Yu Yunhui would be so respectful to such a young man.

Could it be that the other party really had some astonishing background?

But the person he had just offended was the Director of the General Office of Hanchang City.

Thinking like this, the two were also hesitating whether they should take their leave early to avoid being dragged deeper into the mess.

But after some thought, they eventually gritted their teeth and sat back in their original seats.

Meanwhile, in the corridor outside the private room, Pang Zeming took out his phone and made a call to the municipal police bureau.

On the other end of the line, the chief of the municipal bureau was reporting his work in an office.

Seeing that it was Pang Zeming calling, he did not think much of it and answered directly.

Alright, Director Pang. I am almost done reporting my work here, and it is on my way back. I will head over there in a bit. Yang Shuo, having learned the general situation, agreed a few times and then hung up the phone.

What is it?

Beside him, a middle-aged man sitting at the desk asked curiously.

Fang Zhengnian, the Deputy Secretary of Hubei Province, and Fang Mingrui's second uncle.

It was a call from Director Pang of the municipal government. He probably had an unpleasant encounter with someone at Yishui Renjia and wanted me to call someone over to handle it. Since it is on my way back, I will make a trip there myself, Yang Shuo said.

Hearing this, Fang Zhengnian frowned. This Pang Zeming is always causing trouble. Forget it, as long as it is not a disciplinary issue, let him be. It is just about time for a meal anyway, so I will go with you. It has been a while since us two old comrades gathered. This time, I will pay out of my own pocket to treat you to a meal.

Hmm... that works too. Yang Shuo nodded.

Soon, the two went downstairs. Yang Shuo drove the car while Fang Zhengnian sat in the passenger seat. The two of them hurried all the way in the direction of Yishui Renjia.

Why do you seem a bit off today?

In the car, Yang Shuo could not help his curiosity and asked.

Fang Zhengnian sighed, Do not mention it. It is that kid from my eldest brother's family. He almost caused a huge disaster for me this morning. Fortunately, the matter was settled in the end.

Oh?

Hearing this, Yang Shuo's inner gossip was piqued.

Subsequently, Fang Zhengnian briefly told Yang Shuo about what had happened at Mount Wudang.

After listening, Yang Shuo was greatly shocked. There is such a figure in the country?

I find it strange too. I had not heard a single piece of news about this before, but now that we know, just remember not to offend him in the future, Fang Zhengnian said.

Have you met that Young Master Qin? Yang Shuo asked curiously.

Fang Zhengnian shook his head. I have not actually met him. However, that kid Fang Mingrui sent me a photo of him this morning. After Elder Zeng and Elder Liu called, I hurriedly deleted it. How could I dare to keep it?

...

About twenty minutes later, the two arrived in front of Yishui Renjia.

Pang Zeming was already waiting there, accompanied by a few local police officers who had also just arrived.

Secretary Fang, you are here too.

Seeing that Fang Zhengnian actually got out of the car together with Yang Shuo, Pang Zeming was surprised at first, then immediately greeted him with a beaming smile and shook his hand.

Is the person still there? If he has not committed any crime, just question him casually. Do not wrongly accuse the innocent, Fang Zhengnian said.

Yes, yes, he is still there, though they should be finishing their meal soon.

Pang Zeming smiled as he spoke, preparing to lead them inside. As coincidence would have it, Qin Ning and his companions walked out at that exact moment.

"Director Yang, Secretary Fang, that is him."

The moment he spotted Qin Ning, Pang Zeming's eyes narrowed. He raised his hand and pointed at him, addressing Yang Shuo and Fang Zhengnian beside him.
