Afterward, Peng Kang carefully recounted the entire matter to Feng Zhenyang.
After listening, Feng Zhenyang also furrowed his brows. "Young Master Qin? Is there such a figure in the country? I've never heard of him."
"Don't worry just yet, I'll have someone look into him for you right now."
With that said, Feng Zhenyang took out his phone and made a call.
"Hello, it's Feng Zhenyang. Help me look up someone..."
"Understood, Secretary Feng."
On the other end of the line, the person answering was located in some archival agency. After replying, Feng Zhenyang heard the sound of rapid keyboard typing.
"Huh?"
Immediately after, a surprised voice came from the phone.
"What's wrong?" Feng Zhenyang asked, puzzled.
"Sec... Secretary Feng, this person's files are classified as top secret. We don't have the authority to view them!"
"Top secret?"
Hearing this, Feng Zhenyang's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
Normally, files were divided into three classification levels.
Confidential, Secret, and Top Secret!
There were many files at the Confidential and Secret levels, but those classified as Top Secret were extremely rare. You could count them on one hand.
"Alright, I understand. Go back to your work."
While inwardly astonished, Feng Zhenyang quickly hung up the phone.
"How did it go, old classmate?" Peng Kang immediately asked.
Feng Zhenyang frowned. "Things really seem a bit unusual. This Young Master Qin..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his phone rang.
When he saw the caller ID, Feng Zhenyang's heart seemed to stop for a moment.
He hurriedly made a hushing gesture to Peng Kang, then placed the phone to his ear. "Elder Zeng!"
"Did you have someone look up Qin Ning's files?"
On the phone, Elder Zeng's voice almost made Feng Zhenyang's heart stop beating.
"I... I..."
His voice trembled, and he was so panicked that he couldn't even speak clearly.
After a good while, Feng Zhenyang took a deep breath and then recounted the matter from beginning to end.
"Then hurry up and have your old classmate's son go apologize. Qin Ning isn't a petty person. As long as his bottom line hasn't been crossed, he shouldn't stoop to their level over such a thing."
Saying that, Elder Zeng warned again, "Since Qin Ning is in your Qiong Province, you better host him well. Don't go in and disturb his meal for now. I'll give him a call and ask about it."
"Under... Understood, Elder Zeng," Feng Zhenyang quickly replied.
It wasn't until the call ended that he realized his entire body had slumped weakly to the ground.
Beside him, Peng Kang's face had already turned pale.
Although he couldn't hear the voice on the phone, judging by Feng Zhenyang's form of address and the panicked expression on his face, he had more or less guessed the other party's identity.
How could Peng Kang have ever imagined that this matter would actually alarm Elder Zeng!
The car eventually stopped at the hotel entrance. As soon as Peng Kang and Feng Zhenyang got out, they ran into Wu Lei and Peng Hao, who had been waiting there.
Earlier, Peng Hao had also received a text message from his father, Peng Kang. He was panicking internally, realizing that he had caused a catastrophic disaster today.
Wu Lei led them to a spot not far from the private dining room door, but no one dared to knock and enter.
Because Elder Zeng had already told them on the phone not to go in and disturb him, and just stay put.
At this moment, standing outside the private room door, the short few minutes were extremely agonizing for them, feeling longer than several years.
Finally, five minutes later, Feng Zhenyang's phone rang again.
He hurriedly answered, "El... Elder Zeng!"
"It's fine now, go about your business. I just called Qin Ning, and he didn't take this matter to heart. Just be careful in the future. While he is in Qiong Province, you must look after him well for me."
"Under... Understood, Elder Zeng!"
Feng Zhenyang's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.
"By the way, I heard your father fell ill last month. Let me give you a hint: whether your father can recover will depend on whether you can grasp this opportunity," Elder Zeng chuckled. Leaving behind this sentence, he directly hung up.
Feng Zhenyang, however, was completely baffled and somewhat confused.
Grasp what opportunity?
And why did Elder Zeng suddenly bring this up at this time?
Could it be related to Qin Ning?
He was startled at first. Could it be that this Young Master Qin also understood medicine?
Right at this moment, inside the private room, Qin Ning, Qin Fei, and Cheng Weiyang had finished their meal and walked out.
Wu Lei immediately went up to greet them, speaking with a respectful face, "Young Master Qin, were you satisfied with the food?"
"Not bad."
Qin Ning nodded lightly, and then his gaze swept over Feng Zhenyang and the father-son duo, Peng Kang and Peng Hao, behind him.
"Young... Young Master Qin, I'm sorry, earlier it was my..."
Peng Hao's voice trembled. He felt that he absolutely had to apologize in person.
Before he could finish, Qin Ning waved his hand. "On account of Wu Lei's face, we'll let it go this time."
With that said, he led Qin Fei and Cheng Weiyang into the elevator and went upstairs to rest.
"Phew..."
It wasn't until the elevator left that Peng Kang let out a long sigh of relief. Just now, in front of Qin Ning, he hadn't even dared to breathe too loudly.
"Little Lei, thank you for this time. You've saved our Peng family's life."
After recovering his wits, Peng Kang finally looked at Wu Lei, then handed over a card and continued, "This is my Supreme Gold Card. Within Qiong Province, there is no limit to its usage. Have a good time in Qiong Province this time, and you can continue to use it the next time you visit."
"Alright, Uncle Peng, then I won't be polite. Thank you." Wu Lei didn't act pretentiously and smoothly pocketed the gold card.
He understood that the reason Peng Kang was acting like this was entirely because of Qin Ning's sentence just now: On account of Wu Lei's face, we'll let it go this time.
Just this one sentence almost made Wu Lei float on air.
"Little Lei, how did you meet Young Master Qin?" At this time, Feng Zhenyang couldn't help but ask.
Having heard Elder Zeng's hint, he felt that Qin Ning must have the means to treat his father, so naturally, he needed to learn more about Qin Ning.
He didn't forget to add, "Uh, tell me what you can, and don't tell me what you can't."
"There's nothing about this that can't be said. The reason I know Young Master Qin is also a matter of coincidence. Actually, the situation was somewhat similar to Peng Hao's. At that time, I didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and offended Young Master Qin, almost getting our Wu family wiped out."
"However, it can be considered a blessing in disguise. From then on, I clung to Young Master Qin's thigh. You guys might not understand how great of an opportunity this is. Such an opportunity couldn't be begged for even if your ancestral graves exploded with good fortune."
Talking about his past glorious deeds, Wu Lei wore a face full of pride.
