My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 30: The Guy Asking for Trouble

"Heh, Yang Qi, you’re actually qualified to attend this banquet?"

A cold voice suddenly came from behind him. Yang Qi turned to look, his brows furrowing slightly at the sight of a young man. The man was dressed to the nines in an Armani suit and, despite being quite handsome, exuded an air of absolute arrogance.

"Damn it, it’s Qin Tian!" Ye Fei exclaimed, startled.

Qin Tian was the son of a real estate mogul in Kang City. Previously, Yang Qi’s company had occupied a prime piece of land. Qin Tian tried multiple times to purchase it to build housing, but Yang Qi rejected him every time. Yang Qi had built a research institute on that land; there was no way he would just hand it over.

However, after his company went bankrupt, the plot of land ended up in Qin Tian’s hands. Although the institute hadn’t been demolished yet, it was likely to be soon. I even suspect my company’s collapse had something to do with him.

"Why shouldn’t I be here?" Yang Qi asked coldly.

"Hmph!" Qin Tian glanced at Yang Qi. "You’re a swindler, an unethical bastard. What right do you have to be here?"

Suddenly, his eyes landed on Lin Qingxuan and he froze, practically drooling. After a long moment, he finally spoke to her. "Hey, beautiful, what’s so great about following a broke loser like him? You’d be better off with me. I guarantee you’ll live a life of luxury. If you’re not willing, I can have this punk thrown in jail right now!"

Lin Qingxuan smiled. "I’m afraid I can’t do that. Yang Qi is very important to me!"

"Hahaha, that’s just perfect! As long as you agree to sleep with me, I promise not to make things difficult for him. Otherwise, I guarantee he’ll suffer immensely," Qin Tian laughed boisterously.

"Oh, I’m so scared!" Lin Qingxuan laughed. "But can you really pull that off?"

"You little bitch, just you wait! You’ll regret this! Let’s go!" Qin Tian sneered before turning to leave.

Zhang Junwang and the others, who were coming in behind them, witnessed the entire scene.

"Looks like we don’t have to lift a finger. Qin Tian will make that guy wish he were dead," Zhang Peng chuckled.

"Exactly. Let’s head in. We can watch the show in a bit," Zhang Junwang said with a smile, the frustration in his heart suddenly easing.

"What was that about?" Lin Qingxuan asked, looking at Yang Qi.

Yang Qi briefly explained the situation to her.

"I see. He’s certainly audacious!" Lin Qingxuan’s eyes flashed with murderous intent. He actually wants me to sleep with him? He’s courting death!

"Let’s go. The bidding results will be announced soon," Lin Qingxuan said with a smile, leading Yang Qi and Ye Fei forward.

However, at that very moment, a group of men suddenly rushed over and surrounded Yang Qi and Ye Fei, blocking Lin Qingxuan from the crowd.

Ye Fei’s face went pale with fear. These men all looked ferocious; they were clearly the Lin Family’s professional security.

"Little Qi, are you alright?" Ye Fei asked worriedly.

"Don’t worry," Yang Qi replied, remaining quite calm. Aside from Zhong Qiang, he wasn’t afraid of any of the Lin Family’s bodyguards.

However, this group seemed to have been temporarily assigned to maintain order and apparently didn’t recognize him. The man leading them wore a black tactical uniform. His gaze was cold, and his aura was terrifying, seemingly on par with Zhong Qiang’s.

"Young Master Qin, are these the two you said had ill intentions?" the man asked.

Qin Tian nodded. "Yes, Captain Zhang. Let me tell you, this Yang Qi and Ye Fei are a couple of swindlers. They aren’t qualified to attend today’s bidding conference. I suspect they’re here to cause trouble. They probably don’t even have invitations. If something goes wrong with the bidding conference, you’ll be the one to answer for it."

"We can also testify that these two don’t have invitations!" Zhang Peng chimed in.

"What!" Captain Zhang frowned. They were responsible for the security at today’s bidding conference. Not only did they not recognize Yang Qi, but they also had no idea that Lin Qingxuan had personally invited him. From their perspective, anyone without an invitation was definitely a problem.

"Captain Zhang, what are you waiting for? Arrest them! Beat them up, and they’ll confess everything!" Qin Tian sneered.

"Where are your invitations?" Captain Zhang asked, walking over and staring imposingly at Yang Qi and Ye Fei.

"We don’t have invitations," Yang Qi said, shaking his head. What a headache. I should have asked Lin Qingxuan to make an invitation for us.

"Captain Zhang, you heard him! They admitted it! Hurry and arrest them before they get away!" Qin Tian urged excitedly.

"That’s right, Captain Zhang! That Yang Qi knows kung fu," Zhang Peng added. Both men were thrilled, certain they were finally going to see Yang Qi humiliated.

"Arrest them!" Captain Zhang commanded with a wave of his hand.

"Captain Zhang, are you sure you don’t want to call and ask the host?" Yang Qi said calmly. "We were personally invited by Miss Lin to attend the bidding conference."

"Nonsense! A swindler like you is worthy of an invitation from Miss Lin?" Qin Tian cursed.

"Quiet!" Captain Zhang snapped. Seeing how completely calm and composed Yang Qi was, he felt something was off. He decided to make a call, just in case. Arresting the wrong person would be a disaster.

Qin Tian and Zhang Peng smirked, delighted at the prospect of Yang Qi being made a fool of.

Captain Zhang dialed Assistant Qin’s number to inquire about the situation. Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, and he looked at Yang Qi with newfound wariness.

"I understand! I understand, Assistant Qin!" Captain Zhang hung up and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"So, Captain Zhang? I told you that guy was a fraud, right?" Qin Tian said, sidling up to him with an expectant look.

SLAP!

Captain Zhang slapped him squarely across the face, leaving Qin Tian stunned and with a mouthful of blood.

"W-Why, Captain Zhang?"

"Beat him!" Captain Zhang roared.

A group of security guards rushed forward, punching and kicking Qin Tian until his head was swollen like a pig’s. Captain Zhang was horrified. This man dared to harass Miss Lin? He deserves to die!

It turned out that Lin Qingxuan, hidden in the crowd, had called Assistant Qin, who had then relayed what happened to Captain Zhang.

"Stop hitting me! Stop it! I’m going to die!" Qin Tian cried out.

"Stop!" Captain Zhang waved his hand and looked coldly at Qin Tian. "This is the Lin Family’s estate! How dare you harass a lady here and damage the Lin Family’s reputation! This beating is to teach you a lesson!"

He then turned to Yang Qi and Ye Fei and bowed his head slightly. "Mr. Yang, Mr. Ye, my deepest apologies for the disturbance. Please, go on ahead."

Captain Zhang then led his men away.

The onlookers were all dumbstruck. The members of the Zhang and Li Families, in particular, were completely baffled. Yang Qi wasn’t beaten, but Qin Tian was? What in the world was going on?

As the crowd dispersed, Ye Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn’t know why, it seemed they had passed another hurdle.

Lin Qingxuan walked over with a smile. "Sorry for the scare just now!"
