Chapter 79: Chapter 71: Do Not Hit the Face (Seeking Recommendations!)_1
"Brother Wang, I won’t dare to do this again, let us go this time. It’s late now, you should go home and rest. Those guys have agreed to forgive me." Hao Ge said to Officer Wang in the car with a smile on his face. They were sitting with the couple. When Officer Wang was speaking to Qin Yugang earlier, he’d already done some ’ideological work’ on the people in the car. They didn’t even dare to fart, which boosted his confidence.
"Bastard, I know you too well. You always cause problems for me. The one you hit is the Chief’s relative. If I let you go, the Chief will banish me tomorrow. Be careful not to mess with the people from that restaurant again. If I catch you because of them again, I can only ask your boss, Wolf, to discipline you." Officer Wang berated directly into Hao Ge’s ear.
Although Qin Yugang didn’t specify how to handle the situation, only mentioning that he’d enforce the law impartially, since it involved the chief’s relatives, it was imperative to handle this case elegantly. Now, Qin Yugang was a cold-blooded figure in his eyes, the kind who figuratively kills without spilling blood. As for Qin Yugang’s orders, he didn’t dare to disobey them.
Upon hearing this, Hao Ge’s face turned pale instantly. He didn’t expect to have run into a hard nut to crack this time. It seemed that he had received a beating in vain. As for revenge?
Heh, if he seeks revenge, the first suspect will be himself. With their capability, they will directly approach his elder brother. Whether they have evidence or not, his big brother won’t let him off. If he incurs the wrath of the local Chief, he’ll certainly be dealt with by their boss, Wolf, following strict family rules.
"Yes, we won’t dare anymore. We will definitely learn our lesson this time, we will never go to that restaurant again. We will compensate for their medical expenses and loss." He didn’t dare to mention the matter of leaving tonight, even if Officer Wang lets him off now, he would not dare to leave.
"Hmm, remember your words, collect the money tomorrow and apologize again, got it?" Officer Wang ordered sternly.
"Yes, yes, thank you Brother Wang for reminding us, otherwise we would have been in trouble again." Hao Ge quickly thanked him.
Both of them spoke in hushed tones, and with music playing inside the car, no one else heard their conversation.
...
After the few people were taken away by the police, Tang Qing realized that his uncle had also witnessed the entire process, which made him feel a little embarrassed. He had always been a good boy at home, and suddenly becoming aggressive and threatening was somewhat awkward. After all, he had never even been in a fight according to his uncle’s impression of him.
"Uncle, I apologize for my actions earlier." Tang Qing walked over and said awkwardly.
"Well, you have really changed a lot recently. You even dare to fight. I have nothing to say. The guy truly deserved a beating for his foul mouth. However, Tangtang, don’t be so impulsive next time. Fighting is always wrong. There are many ways to solve problems." Qin Yugang said seriously. He didn’t expect his nephew to be so domineering just now, which made him view him differently. Of course, this kind of different view was a compliment, as he was glad that Tang Qing had grown up. 𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖕𝔲𝖇.𝖈𝖔𝖒
The previous Tang Qing seemed devoid of character in his eyes. He remembered that Tang Qing never used to fight. When he was bullied as a child, Lin Jiaxue would take revenge for him, which was not acceptable at all.
What kind of man needs a woman’s protection? Seeing Tang Qing’s actions just now, Qin Yugang was pleased. Tang Qing finally showed his mettle. Coming from a military background himself, he didn’t appreciate timid scholars who cowered behind women in difficult situations.
Although Qin Yugang was quite satisfied with Tang Qing’s recent behavior, he had to say this to prevent Tang Qing from becoming prideful.
"Uncle, he asked for it by mouthing off." Tang Qing said angrily, thinking that he should never tolerate such behavior.
"Hmm, it was good that you hit him this time. But be careful with your methods in the future. There are many considerations when it comes to hitting someone. If you impulsively hit the wrong spot, it could cause a lot of trouble, especially the head. You are quite strong. I’ve seen many strong defendants who, in a fit of anger, turn people into vegetables or even break their necks with a single slap. Be careful with the head to avoid giving people an excuse to complain. Like just now, a simple concussion can annoy the hell out of them." Qin Yugang warned. The phrase ’don’t hit the face’ indeed applies to real fights. Issues with the brain are the most difficult to judge and deal with, let alone sentencing and compensation.
"Yes, Uncle. I’ll be careful. By the way, Uncle, can you arrange a police officer to teach me how to fight?" Tang Qing was surprised that his uncle was not angry about him hitting someone, but about him hitting the wrong spot. But it made sense, as his strength will certainly not be weak in the future. Thinking about the long road to unlocking his genes, he could even accidentally knock someone’s head off in a fit of anger.
This is too bloody! No, he must learn to control his strength in the future. Otherwise, an impulsive action could lead to big trouble. He might even have to go on the run.
"What do you need to learn fighting for?" Qin Yugang asked, frowning.
"So I won’t be at a disadvantage when I fight or get hit in the future, and even if I want to punch someone, I’ll know where to strike without getting into trouble, right?" Tang Qing said matter-of-factly. He had planned to ask his uncle’s help for some training after the gene unlocking process, but he had been busy. However, he could squeeze out some time this week. Even a bit would suffice.
"That’s true. When do you want to learn? You’re the top student in your grade right now, but given your character, I trust you won’t let people surpass you. I’m not worried about your studies. I’ll find a coach for you. Look for him on Sunday, he will know what to do." Qin Yugang said after pondering for a while. He agreed with Tang Qing’s view. What kind of man can’t fight? How can he protect those around him in case of danger? Absolutely not.
"Okay, but isn’t it bothersome for them on a Sunday?" Tang Qing asked thoughtfully.
"Do you think I’m sending you to just any police officer? I’m sending you to a master who is my comrade-in-arms. He became a special forces soldier while I was screened out. He didn’t join the public service after retiring. Instead, he opened a military supply store. Visit him on Sunday. I’ll tell him in advance." Qin Yugang said with a smile. Whenever he thought of this comrade-in-arms, he felt admiration. Unfortunately, his friend got injured during a mission. Otherwise, he would still be serving, by now at least at a regiment level position. What a shame.
"That’s great, a special forces soldier. He must have fought on the front line and killed enemies, right?" Tang Qing exclaimed excitedly when he heard this. Special forces, the sharp weapon of a country. Although he didn’t have the desire to join the army, he had great respect for the soldiers who defended their homeland, especially the exceptionally brave special forces.
"I’m not sure about that either. These are state secrets. When the time comes, be careful not to ask about things you’re not supposed to. We don’t need any unnecessary trouble," Qin Yugang warned. In strict terms, every enemy termination mission is a classified state secret, all covered by confidentiality agreements. If Tang Qing were to pry, it could cause significant issues, considering that the person he referred to was a staunch patriot, a person who couldn’t bear even a grain of dust in his eyes. Qin Yugang didn’t want Tang Qing’s reckless questions to offend him.
"Okay, I see, I was just asking," Tang Qing said with an embarrassed smile. Of course, he knew these were secrets. He was only casually speaking and had no true interest in learning state secrets, especially from a special forces soldier. That would be courting trouble. Who would think the army’s confidentiality rules were for show? These guys who qualified as special forces were definitely tough in terms of quality and political awareness.
"Alright, watch your mouth. Go see him on Sunday. He has special equipment at his place, he’s quite a busy fellow," Qin Yugang smiled.
"Alright," Tang Qing nodded.
After their conversation, the two returned to the private room.
"What happened outside?" Tang Qing’s aunt was the first to ask when she saw them. Qin Yugang had mentioned going out to check, so they had been reassured. With Qin Yugang around, there was no chance of Tang Qing being disadvantaged. Everyone else’s attention was also on them, especially Wang Yan, whose caring gaze was undisguised. If it weren’t for his aunt’s distraction, Tang Qing would have definitely exposed himself.
"Nothing much, some guys were fighting and got taken away by the police," Qin Yugang casually explained as he walked.
"Good, those bad guys should be taken away," Qin Shiqi chimed in, then continued to stuff her mouth. Li Jianguo had performed remarkably well on each dish, he prepared them all meticulously.
"Absolutely, our righteous comrade Qin Shiqi is correct," Tang Qing said jokingly.
Seeing that everything was alright, Wang Yan returned to her previous cold demeanor. Tang Qing quietly heaved a sigh of relief. That was close, he almost blew his cover.
"Exactly," Qin Shiqi smugly agreed.
The meal took two hours to finish.
A new week had begun, and so had a new journey.
...
December 17
Friday afternoon
Tang Qing had taken half the day off for personal matters. Shen Mei didn’t object. Although Tang Qing was the top student of his year, he never slacked off in his studies and kept working hard. The teachers saw this, and didn’t ask much about his personal affairs. As the top student of the grade, he was entitled to such privileges.
Sheng Tang Apparel - Third Floor Conference Room
At a long oval conference table
Tang Qing sat in the main seat with Yang Kai and another vice president on his left. On the right were Qi Yan, Liu Desheng, and another gorgeous deputy manager from the design department. The heads of the other departments sat in order.
Tang Qing discovered that most of the people hired in Qi Yan’s department were females, including many beautiful ones. A few entire studios had been headhunted. The male count was considerably low, making the design department abundant with eye candy.
Looking at their young chairman, everyone beneath felt a sense of incongruity, including Yang Kai. There was something strange about the whole thing.
After another week of preparation, the company had essentially entered the operational stage. All the management had familiarized themselves with their responsibilities, planned the company system, and even had the cafeteria ready with a midday meal for the company’s 100 plus employees. They had to have a cafeteria since the company was not in a commercial district where food was easily accessible.
During lunch, Tang Qing and the vice presidents thoroughly discussed the company’s regulations and development plans and adjusted a few details.
The purpose of this meeting was to formally introduce themselves and establish company norms and development goals.
