Chapter 125: The Ouyang Family’s Little Princess

The Ouyang Family stood up and bowed to Qin Ming, saying:

“Thank you. If there is anything the Ouyang Family can help with in the future, just say the word…”

Qin Ming hurriedly helped the Ouyang Family up and said:

“Old Master Ouyang, these are what your Ouyang Family deserves, so there's no need for such words of gratitude.

If anyone should be thanking anyone, it's our Qin Family thanking you.”

The Ouyang Family Head's face was full of gratitude. Qin Ming helping their Ouyang Family like this was completely beyond what an outsider could imagine.

It made him feel that forming an alliance with the Qin Family was the most correct decision he had made in his life.

Under Qin Ming's repeated persuasion, the Ouyang Family Head finally agreed to accept those shops.

The gratitude on the Ouyang Family Head's face was beyond words.

“Someone, come! Prepare a banquet quickly, and call the Eldest Young Master and the Elders over.”

The Ouyang Family Head shouted loudly, instructing the servants to prepare the food and wine.

Turning to Qin Ming, he said:

“Qin Ming, you probably haven't eaten yet. It's perfect timing for you to eat here; I'll introduce some people to you.”

Qin Ming stood up in a hurry. What was the Ouyang Family Head trying to do?

Keeping him here for a meal and calling out the Elders and the Eldest Young Master to accompany him, all to express his gratitude?

Qin Ming waved his hand and said:

“I just ate, and I can't eat any more right now.

Old Master Ouyang, you see, our Qin Family just won a battle, and there are still many follow-up matters that haven't been handled.

As a Young Master of the Qin Family and its heir, I have to go back and take care of things.

So, I won't stay any longer.”

He couldn't stand this kind of enthusiasm. Now that everything was settled, it was time to slip away.

“No! You must stay for a meal no matter what. You're not going anywhere today; just stay here with us.

I've already given orders for the servants to prepare a room!”

The Ouyang Family Head stopped Qin Ming and said.

Qin Ming said:

“Old Master Ouyang, I'll stay for a meal another day. There really are too many Family matters to handle.

Besides, my father is still waiting for me to report back; I can't keep him waiting for long.”

Hearing this, the Ouyang Family Head stopped blocking him. Since Qin Ming had brought up his father, it really wasn't right to continue stopping him.

“I'll head back to the Qin Family first. Old Master Ouyang, feel free to come over and visit whenever you have time; everyone in our Qin Family welcomes you.”

After saying that, Qin Ming strode out of the Ouyang Family.

Just then, a young girl came rushing over in a hurry.

Seeing the girl approaching, Qin Ming quickly stopped in his tracks, but she seemed to be in a rush and was running too fast to stop.

With a thud, the girl crashed into Qin Ming.

Qin Ming only felt a soft sensation pressing against him. Before he could react, the girl had already fallen to the ground.

“Ouch…” The girl lay on the ground, crying out softly in pain.

Qin Ming quickly helped the girl up and said:

“Are you all right?”

Her white clothes were a bit messy from the fall, and there was some redness and swelling on her arm, which was particularly clear against her fair skin.

The girl waved her hand and said:

“I'm sorry, it's all because I was running too fast. Are you okay?”

“I'm fine, but are you hurt from the fall?”

Qin Ming looked at the swelling on her arm and asked with concern.

“I'm fine, I still have things to do, so that's all.” After saying that, the girl started heading towards the Council Hall.

Qin Ming shook his head and continued walking forward.

“Father, has Qin Ming already left?”

The girl ran into the Council Hall and saw only her father sitting in a chair. She looked around but didn't see anyone else.

“He's gone, he just left.”

The Ouyang Family Head took a sip of tea and said calmly.

He was still thinking about those twenty shops. With twenty shops, plus the Medicinal Pills refined by the Qin Family's Grand Alchemist, the Ouyang Family's development was just around the corner.
