My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 208: I Will Tell My Grandpa!

The Kang City Alliance had almost reached the point of being too big to fail. If it collapsed, a vast number of people would undoubtedly lose their jobs, leading to a severe economic crisis in Kang City. Therefore, a replacement was necessary—one capable of shouldering the city’s rise and absorbing a large workforce.

This was another reason why Yang Qi had founded the Qifei Group.

It’s true I’m a cultivator, but I don’t practice a heartless cultivation technique. Besides, at this stage, my own cultivation isn’t strong enough yet. A powerful corporation will be my crucial source of income and support.

The next day, Yang Qi took Cao Zhendong home. He intended to resolve his personal affairs once and for all so that Cao Zhendong could work at the Qifei Group in peace.

Just as they stepped outside, they saw Li Qingyan waiting downstairs next to a Mercedes-Benz G-Class. It was rare for a woman to like such a vehicle; those who did usually possessed an exceptionally strong personality.

"Get in, I’ll go with you," she said. "Yang Qi, you’re ultimately an outsider. I’m now the General Manager of Qifei Group, and I certainly won’t let a talent like Cao Zhendong slip through my fingers. I should also help handle his family matters."

Her reasoning was sound, and Yang Qi didn’t refuse.

Isn’t it nice to have a chauffeur?

The two of them rode in Li Qingyan’s G-Class to Cao Zhendong’s home, a house he had purchased long ago and managed to keep. However, the owner’s name had since been changed to Hao Ziyun. According to her, this was to prevent further trouble from the Kang City Alliance, but the truth of that claim was another matter entirely.

The apartment was on the ground floor. After Li Qingyan parked the car, the three of them walked toward the building. Standing at the door was a familiar face: Fan Ruobing, the granddaughter of Kang City’s richest man, Fan Shengren.

I can’t believe I ran into her here again.

Accompanying Fan Ruobing was Yang Peng from the Tian Nan Martial Arts Hall.

He must be her bodyguard. His martial skill isn’t half-bad.

Upon seeing Yang Qi, Fan Ruobing was instantly displeased. "Why are you everywhere!" she snapped. "Get lost! Don’t ruin the Fan Family’s important business."

"You’re not here for Cao Zhendong, are you?" Yang Qi asked with a smile.

"So what if I am?" Fan Ruobing’s expression shifted. "Are you here for him too?"

"That’s right," Li Qingyan stepped forward, looking directly at Fan Ruobing. "I am Li Qingyan, General Manager of Qifei Group. We want to hire Mr. Cao Zhendong as our Chief Technology Officer!"

"Qifei Group? Oh, that little company that just launched," Fan Ruobing said, waving her hand dismissively as if shooing a fly. Her arrogance was palpable. "You can leave now. Cao Zhendong is coming with the Fan Family."

Li Qingyan chuckled. "Miss Fan, you’re a little too confident. I think you’re the one who should be leaving."

"How dare you!" Fan Ruobing was clearly a spoiled little princess, and she couldn’t stand being talked back to. She immediately turned to Yang Peng. "What are you staring at? Teach this bitch a lesson for me!"

An embarrassed look crossed Yang Peng’s face. I can’t afford to offend Yang Qi. Back at the Tian Nan Martial Arts Hall, he defeated even Song Yan of the Song Family. I don’t want to die.

"Miss Fan, I think we should let it go," Yang Peng advised hurriedly. "We’re all here to see Mr. Cao. It wouldn’t be right to cause a scene at his home." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Are you scared?" Fan Ruobing scoffed. "You’re useless. If I had known the people from Tian Nan Martial Arts Hall were so worthless, I never would have hired you!"

Yang Peng clenched his fists, fighting the urge to strike her, but he didn’t dare. The Fan Family was wealthy and had countless retainers, many of whom were experts and individuals with special abilities. He couldn’t afford to provoke them, and Tian Nan Martial Arts Hall probably couldn’t either.

"My apologies, Miss Fan," Yang Peng said, turning to leave. "In that case, our protection ends here."

This young lady is far too willful. I can’t serve her.

"If you dare take another step, I’ll make sure you can never practice martial arts again!" Fan Ruobing said coldly.

Yang Peng’s foot froze in place. A triumphant look flashed across Fan Ruobing’s face. She glanced at Li Qingyan. "Bitch, why are you still here? Are you waiting for me to get physical?"

"Who are you calling a bitch?"

Li Qingyan was a martial artist herself. When she spoke, her full aura erupted, and a terrifying presence enveloped Fan Ruobing. Fan Ruobing was just an ordinary person; facing Li Qingyan, she had completely overestimated herself. For a moment, she was scared stiff.

But how could Miss Fan possibly back down? Even if she was terrified, she would never admit it. She was, after all, the young lady of the wealthiest family in Kang City. She believed no one in the entire city would dare to provoke her, let alone hit her.

"I’m talking about you! What are you going to do about it?" she retorted, though her voice wavered. "Not only are you a bitch, but so is he!" she added, pointing at Yang Qi.

She still held a grudge from the last time, when Yang Qi had won the medical skills competition against Old Xu, causing her to lose face and her precious pendant.

"Now get lost, or don’t blame me for getting rough!"

If Yang Peng wasn’t disobeying my orders, I wouldn’t be wasting my breath. I’d just have him attack.

SLAP!

A crisp sound echoed. Fan Ruobing froze, a burning sting spreading across her cheek. In her entire life, no one in all of Kang City had ever dared to strike her.

Yang Qi was stunned as well. I didn’t expect Li Qingyan to be so fiery. As expected of the granddaughter of the Hongmen Sect Leader from Eagle Country.

"You! You hit me?" Fan Ruobing’s eyes widened in disbelief. "You actually dared to hit me?" It felt as surreal as a commoner striking a princess in ancient times.

"So what if I hit you?" Li Qingyan said coldly. "If your family didn’t teach you any manners, then I will. Say another word like that, and I guarantee you’ll never speak again."

"Kill her! Kill her for me!" Fan Ruobing shrieked, descending into a frenzy.

But Yang Peng and his men still didn’t dare to move. They knew they were no match for Li Qingyan.

SLAP!

Li Qingyan slapped Fan Ruobing again. "Want more?"

"You! You! I’ll tell my grandfather! You’re finished! And Qifei Group is finished too!" Beaten to the point of tears, Fan Ruobing finally broke down. She had never suffered such a humiliating blow. It was completely unacceptable. With that, she ran off, sobbing.

Yang Peng hurriedly followed. "Mr. Yang, my apologies, but I’m on duty!" He sounded helpless; the martial arts hall had to make a living, and besides recruiting students, this was the kind of work they did.

"It’s fine. You can go," Yang Qi said with an understanding wave.

Just then, a woman emerged from the house. She was gaudily dressed and wore extremely heavy makeup, looking like a vixen. It was Hao Ziyun, Cao Zhendong’s wife—or rather, his wife in name only. She was holding some of Cao Zhendong’s files. Noticing Fan Ruobing was gone, she asked, "Where is Miss Fan?"
