Chapter 64: Intentional or Accidental?
“Get me the real-time updates on this license plate number, and keep an eye on the recent movements of this car. I want to see where Shen Kuozhi is heading.”
“Be careful not to let them find out.”
Shen Hanxin whispered into the phone on the other end.
After giving the instructions, he stood behind a pillar in the parking lot, his grin growing wider.
Shen Kuozhi, my dear brother, since you refuse to accept my goodwill, don’t blame me if the penalty wine tastes bad.
Shen Kuozhi and Qi Yunhan were unaware that they had already attracted someone’s attention. Qi Yunhan was driving back to the hospital.
“Wait, I want to go somewhere else.”
Shen Kuozhi suddenly remembered something while sitting in the passenger seat.
“Is there something else, big brother?”
“Qi Weixiong’s matter needs to be dealt with. Previously, I didn’t have time to handle everything because of my health. Now, it’s time to strike while the iron is hot.”
Qi Yunhan glanced at Shen Kuozhi. Seeing that he was serious, he reluctantly took on the role of the driver.
“Where to?”
“Here, let’s grab a bite to eat.”
Shen Kuozhi entered the address into the car’s navigation system.
The address was near the Qu Chen Group. Lately, Qi Weixiong has been facing internal and external troubles. Most of the real estate businesses had been transferred by Guo Xia and Qi Lei. Qi Weixiong didn’t even have a nearby place to stay now, and with so many problems in the company, he practically lived there.
“Don’t be in such a rush. I’ll take you to see a good show.”
Shen Kuozhi looked at Qi Yunhan’s silent but angry expression and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Qi Yunhan, without looking away, said, “You’re not young anymore. You should know better.”
The car came to a steady stop in the parking lot of the restaurant where Shen Kuozhi and Qi Weixiong had agreed to meet. Unexpectedly, the car had accidentally run over a nail, causing one of the tires to burst.
“Oh no, there’s a nail here. Looks like the tire burst.”
When Qi Yunhan got out to inspect, he found a nail embedded in the tire.
Shen Kuozhi, upon hearing this, walked over to check the situation with the tire. Indeed, it was punctured and couldn’t be driven. Shen Kuozhi made a call to have a tow truck come over.
“It’s okay, it’s just as well to send this car for comprehensive maintenance. After we finish eating, I’ll have someone bring another car to pick us up.”
Qi Yunhan shrugged, raised his hands, and said, “Alright, let’s wait for the tow truck driver. You know what, I’m actually a bit hungry.”
“In that case, let’s head up first. I’ll have the tow truck wait for us to finish eating.”
“Sounds good, let’s go.”
When they arrived at the private room, Qi Weixiong hadn’t shown up yet.
“This Qi Weixiong is really a busy man. Didn’t he invite you? It’s already time, why haven’t we seen him? Isn’t his company nearby?”
Qi Yunhan complained to Shen Kuozhi while looking at the menu.
Shen Kuozhi’s eyes flashed with a hint of mockery. He smirked and said, “Perhaps he really is a busy man.”
Fifteen minutes later, Qi Weixiong pushed open the door to the private room.
As soon as the door opened, before he could see who was inside, Qi Weixiong revealed his oily face and said with a smile, “Oh, sorry, sorry. I was suddenly held up by an emergency just now. Kuozhi, I’m really sorry! To express my apologies, I’ll drink three cups as punishment!”
When he saw who was inside, his grin widened even more.
“Oh! I didn’t expect Master Qi to be here too. I’m really sorry, I’m so rude. Let me voluntarily drink three more cups!”
Wow, what a good relationship! Not only did Shen Kuozhi come, but also the young master of the Qi family. This increased the probability of successfully borrowing money.
Both of them were wealthy, and he was Shen Kuozhi’s father-in-law. Although that ungrateful Qi Lei didn’t want to help him, he, Qi Weixiong, had climbed onto the ladder of the Shen family.
The Shen family and his Qi family had no conflicts. As long as the Shen family gave him a little help, he could make a comeback!
The more Qi Weixiong thought about it, the more excited he became as if the money from the Shen family and the Qi family had already been deposited into his account.
“Mr. Qi, you don’t need to be so polite. Once we’ve had a drink, we’re all brothers.”
Qi Yunhan said with a smile that was neither friendly nor unfriendly, directly contradicting Qi Weixiong’s attempt to interact with them as an elder. He even tacitly agreed to Qi Weixiong’s self-imposed punishment of six cups.
Qi Weixiong didn’t expect his polite words to be rebutted like this. He felt a surge of frustration in his chest, feeling choked and unable to release it as if he were about to suffocate from internal injuries.
He was almost fifty years old, and he had never been spoken to with such an attitude by a younger person. Even Shen Kuozhi had never spoken to him in such a tone!
After Qi Yunhan finished speaking, Qi Weixiong felt displeased. With the Qi family’s young master speaking to him in front of Shen Kuozhi like this, Shen Kuozhi would definitely stand up for him!
But when Qi Weixiong looked at Shen Kuozhi, the latter didn’t even glance at him. Instead, he put down the menu and poured a cup of tea for Qi Yunhan.
Qi Weixiong had originally expected Shen Kuozhi to “teach a lesson” to Qi Yunhan for him, but Shen Kuozhi completely ignored him.
He felt a bit displeased. The last time he met Shen Kuozhi, the latter didn’t have this attitude.
Although Qi Weixiong couldn’t quite accept Shen Kuozhi’s indifferent response, today he was in need, so naturally he had to go along with the two of them.
Seeing that Shen Kuozhi also tacitly agreed with Qi Yunhan’s words, even though Qi Weixiong had been drinking a lot lately and had already had quite a bit, he could only grit his teeth and bear it.
“Alright, alright.”
Qi Weixiong nodded as he walked to the table and began to drink directly. The liquor on the table was top-quality white liquor, very potent. Qi Weixiong drank six cups on an empty stomach, and his face immediately turned red.
It wasn’t until he finished the six cups of liquor that Shen Kuozhi seemed to notice him.
“Uncle seems to like this kind of liquor? Although I don’t drink, there are still a few bottles of good liquor at home. I’ll have someone send them to you to try another day.”
Shen Kuozhi said casually as if he really didn’t understand why Qi Weixiong had started off by drinking six cups of liquor.
The aftereffect of the liquor was strong. After a while, Qi Weixiong’s reaction slowed down significantly.
After Shen Kuozhi’s words reached his ears and circled in his mind, unable to make sense of it, he could only nod in agreement with a smile.
“Alright, thank you, Kuozhi~”
Normally, Qi Weixiong wouldn’t have missed the simple meaning of these words, but now he was a bit confused due to the strong liquor.
Seeing Qi Weixiong in this bewildered state, Qi Yunhan couldn’t help but want to smile. To avoid being too obvious, he clenched his fist against his lips.
Once Qi arrived, the waiter quickly served the dishes.
Qi Yunhan had ordered the dishes, selecting a few that he and Shen Kuozhi would eat and a few specially prepared dishes for Qi Weixiong to calm his internal heat.
When the dishes were served, Qi Yunhan deliberately guided the waiter to place the carefully selected dishes for Qi Weixiong in front of him.
“The dishes are served, let’s eat. Whatever it is, we can discuss it after we finish eating.”
“Yeah, everyone must be hungry. Let’s eat.”
Shen Kuozhi concluded, cutting off what Qi Weixiong was about to say.
Qi Weixiong’s slightly sober mind reminded him to mention the investment to Shen Kuozhi and them, but just as Shen Kuozhi interrupted, that thread of clarity in his mind snapped, and in the midst of toasting and drinking, he once again embraced his former extravagant lifestyle.
“Alright, let’s eat. Let’s eat and drink together, and have another drink~”
After the meal, Qi Weixiong not only didn’t secure any sponsorship but also contributed a lot of information to Shen Kuozhi.
Qi Yunhan, as a third party, watched Shen Kuozhi’s entire scheme unfold.
If it weren’t for Qi Weixiong still here, he would have wanted to applaud Shen Kuozhi. It was simply too calculating, too brilliant!
Qi Weixiong could no longer hold up his eyelids and fell asleep on the table.
Shen Kuozhi looked disdainfully at Qi Weixiong, delicately wiped his hands with a wet wipe, and said to Qi Yunhan, “Let’s go.”
“Alright, let’s go.”
They returned to the hospital in the newly acquired blue Maserati. As for the flat tire Maybach, it had already been towed away for maintenance after work hours.
When Shen Hanxin received the message from his subordinate in the afternoon, he learned that the black Maybach had stayed in a restaurant parking lot for over an hour before being directly towed away for maintenance.
He slammed his fist on the solid wood table, bones making a faint cracking sound.
“Damn it! Damn you, Shen Kuozhi! I don’t know if you did this intentionally or accidentally! This is despicable! You let them slip away!”
Feeling the pain in his hand, Shen Hanxin’s mind calmed down with each wave of pain. Standing in the dim room, his eyes were cloudy and unclear.
“Hmph, this is just the beginning, Kuozhi, my dear brother. None of you can escape from my grasp.”

“Achoo!”
Shen Kuozhi, sitting in the car and preparing to return to the hospital, suddenly sneezed.
His sneeze was just a sneeze, but it drew a substantial gaze from Qi Yunhan.
“What’s wrong, feeling unwell?”
“It’s nothing, just felt a bit itchy in the nose. Just a regular sneeze.”
Shen Kuozhi rubbed his nose innocently, looking at Qi Yunhan.
Shen Kuozhi’s gaze made Qi Yunhan uncomfortable, so he also rubbed his nose and looked out the window.
“Alright, take care of yourself.”
Shen Kuozhi didn’t say anything more but processed the words he had just extracted from Qi Weixiong in the car.
The liquidity of the Qi Group was now completely depleted. Although the documents for the land in the western suburbs had been approved, there was no funding to initiate the project.
Getting a bank loan wouldn’t solve the problem. After all, the market value of the Qi Group had dropped significantly, and Qi Weixiong’s real estate had been sold off by Guo Xia. So, it was impossible to obtain funds from the bank.
That’s why Qi Weixiong was so eager to secure an investment. With investment, the land in the western suburbs could be completed smoothly, making him a big winner.
Shen Kuozhi didn’t let Qi Weixiong drink those bottles of white liquor for nothing. He did invest.
Because Shen Kuozhi knew that avenging Yue Yue’s harm by such simple retaliation wasn’t enough. He wanted the Qi family to regret their actions and suffer.
