On this end of the phone, Liang Lihua was left dumbfounded. When he finally reacted, he was so angry that he laughed.
"You? Important business? What do you mean it's fine even if our ancestral graves explode? You brat, hurry up and drive the car back to me!"
Liang Jie said, "Dad, I really have something to do. Can't you just call a car from the compound to pick you up?"
"That's a government vehicle, and I'm already off work and at home..."
"Beep, beep, beep..."
Before Liang Lihua could finish his sentence, the dial tone indicating the call had been hung up echoed from the phone.
He was so furious he almost smashed his phone. When he tried calling back, he found that the brat had actually turned off his phone.
"Stinky brat! Just wait until you get back. If I don't beat you until your own mother can't recognize you, I'll take your surname!" Liang Lihua's face was red with anger.
...
After a few rounds of drinks, everyone started discussing the future development and plans of the Feiya Group.
Right at that moment, the door to the private room was kicked open.
A middle-aged man stormed in angrily. It was none other than Liang Lihua.
His gaze swept across everyone present. Upon spotting Liang Jie, he immediately marched over and grabbed his ear.
"Ow, ow, ow..."
Liang Jie gasped in pain. "Dad, what are you doing!"
"You brat, the important business you mentioned is just eating here?" Liang Lihua scolded.
He had just arrived here with his old comrade-in-arms for a gathering, but saw his own car downstairs. He didn't even have to think to know that the brat Liang Jie was definitely here too.
So he asked the front desk and quickly found out that Liang Jie was in this private room.
"Kids are just being mischievous. A few words of scolding are enough, don't get physical..."
Outside the private room, Liang Lihua's old comrade-in-arms also walked in, trying to persuade him. However, before he could finish his sentence, he froze on the spot.
This old comrade-in-arms was none other than Wang Yousheng.
He hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence to run into Qin Ning and the others here.
"Uh..."
Liang Lihua was stunned and looked at Wang Yousheng. "Old Wang, do you know them?"
However, Wang Yousheng ignored him and walked straight up to Qin Ning, bowing as he called out, "Young Master Qin."
"It's Little Wang (with TL note)." Qin Fei teased.
Because she suddenly remembered that during their first meeting, Wang Yousheng had told her to call him that.
"Cough, cough, Little Wang, it's Little Wang," Wang Yousheng replied awkwardly.
Behind him, Liang Lihua was already dumbfounded.
What was going on?
His old comrade-in-arms not only knew this group of young people, but was also incredibly respectful to that Young Master Qin sitting in the seat of honor.
And who was that girl?
How dare she make a joke out of his old comrade-in-arms's name!
Did she have a death wish?
His old comrade-in-arms was Elder Zeng's bodyguard. He wielded terrifying power and had direct access to the highest authorities!
"Why are you also in Eastern Province?"
Qin Ning was also slightly surprised, not expecting Wang Yousheng to show up.
"I happened to have a mission a few days ago, so I came over. I plan to head back tomorrow after attending the birthday banquet of my comrade's father-in-law," Wang Yousheng answered truthfully.
Qin Ning nodded. "Since we ran into each other, sit down and have a drink with us."
"Yes, yes... thank you, Young Master Qin."
Hearing this, a look of joy appeared on Wang Yousheng's face.
Although he could be considered quite familiar with Qin Ning, the opportunity to sit and eat at the same table with him was rare.
Furthermore, when Qin Ning went to the capital previously, it was always Elder Zeng who drank with him. How could he have the qualifications to sit at the table?
Soon, Liang Lihua also sat down along with Wang Yousheng.
Even if he were stupid, he could guess by now that Qin Ning's identity was definitely not simple.
After all, aside from a handful of people like Elder Zeng and Elder Liu, he probably couldn't find anyone else who could make his old comrade-in-arms so respectful, right?
Just what was this young man's background?
His heart was instantly filled with extreme curiosity.
He also finally understood that the important business his son mentioned earlier was accompanying this young man for a meal.
Looking at it now, it indeed counted as very important.
"I had Yunshan go over to your side a while ago. How is everyone at the base doing?" Qin Ning asked.
Wang Yousheng answered truthfully, "Now that we have Elder Jiang's guidance, everyone is progressing much faster."
"That's good."
Qin Ning nodded. "I'll find some time to go over there in a while and see if I can improve your cultivation environment."
Hearing this, Wang Yousheng's face was once again filled with wild joy, and he drank three consecutive cups.
Right then, Liang Jie spoke up, "Young Master Qin, my maternal grandfather's eightieth birthday is tomorrow night. If you have time..."
Hearing this, Qin Ning didn't respond immediately, but instead glanced at Qin Fei and the others. "Do you want to stay and play in Eastern Province for a couple of days?"
"Yes, yes!"
Qin Fei nodded. "We pretty much finished up all the company matters over the last two days. Next, we're just waiting for Sister Xin's drama to officially start shooting, which will probably take about a week. We were just thinking about where to go to play and relax for a couple of days."
"Then let's play here for a couple of days," Qin Ning smiled.
Hearing this, Liang Jie's face instantly revealed joy. "Young Master Qin, then I'll book a hotel for you all? How about this one? It's considered the best in our Eastern Province, and the rooms upstairs are all very nice."
"Alright." Qin Ning nodded.
Soon, after finishing the meal, Qin Ning led the group upstairs.
Liang Jie booked a total of three rooms, all of which were presidential suites.
Qin Ning had one room to himself, Qin Fei and the other girls shared one, and Wang Er and the rest squeezed into the last one.
"Old Wang, just who exactly is this Young Master Qin..."
After watching Qin Ning and the others get on the elevator, Liang Lihua, standing beside Wang Yousheng, finally couldn't help but ask.
His face was flushed red from drinking. He had just toasted Qin Ning and everyone else in the private room with a glass of Maotai one by one.
But even after a whole meal of drinking, he still hadn't figured out the other party's background.
"No need to ask. You just need to know that in the future, when you see him, treat him as if you are seeing Elder Zeng and Elder Liu," Wang Yousheng said simply, but his words left Liang Lihua shocked.
A young man could actually be compared to Elder Zeng and Elder Liu?
How was that possible?
If these words hadn't come out of his old comrade-in-arms's mouth, he would definitely think the other party was messing with him.
"Dad, Uncle Wang isn't joking. In the future, when you see Young Master Qin, you absolutely must revere him like an ancestor!" Liang Jie said very seriously.
He had personally witnessed Qin Ning's extraordinary abilities and understood that such an existence had truly surpassed worldly comprehension. Under no circumstances could they neglect or offend him in the slightest.
"You brat..."
Liang Lihua frowned slightly.
"What he said is not wrong. Revering him like an ancestor is indeed not a problem."
Wang Yousheng smiled. "To be able to invite Young Master Qin to your father-in-law's eightieth birthday, I can only say that this time, smoke is truly rising from your ancestral graves."
He certainly knew that if Qin Ning casually gave out a divine medicine or an amulet at that time, let alone smoke rising, even if their ancestral graves exploded, it wouldn't be a loss at all!

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.
