Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 11 The Dignity Below the Knee

The Qin family's cellar is a place specially used to store wine and other supplies. It is small in size and very cold. Qin Haoran and Gu Xiangling were locked up in such a place by Qin Zhongyuan.

"Master, I'm sorry." Gu Xiangling shrank in Qin Haoran's arms at this moment, sobbing sadly and blaming herself.

Qin Haoran caressed her hair, and said with a soft smile: "Fool, how could this be your fault?"

Recalling what happened just now, Qin Haoran was still a little bit embarrassed. He thought that after he did some tricks, Qin Haoran would temporarily let go of his coveting of Gu Xiangling, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen at night.

However, Qin Haoran did not regret the violence against Qin Haoyuan, no matter who he dared to treat Gu Xiangling who he regarded as his relative, Qin Haoran would never let it go!

But Qin Haoran felt lucky when he thought about it, because at that time he went back to his room after bidding farewell to Jiang Yurou, and came out to look for Gu Xiangling when he didn't see him, and happened to meet Qin Haoyuan and those rich men in the back garden who were going to do that to Gu Xiangling Animal matter.If it was one o'clock in the evening, Gu Xiangling would be ruined by them.

Gu Xiangling was also terrified of what happened just now, if Qin Haoran hadn't arrived in time, his life would have been ruined.

Thinking back to the proud and tall figure of Qin Haoran that suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, the feeling of warmth and security in Gu Xiangling's heart still lingers to this day.

In the dark, Qin Haoran's hand gently touched Gu Xiangling's face, and he could feel the muscles on Gu Xiangling's face twitching slightly.Qin Haoyuan's slap just now was so heavy that Gu Xiangling's face was swollen, making Qin Haoran's heart ache.

"Does it still hurt?" Qin Haoran's movements were very light, for fear of hurting Gu Xiangling.

Gu Xiangling smiled slightly: "Master, it's okay, Xiangling doesn't hurt."

Qin Haoran's hand on Gu Xiangling's Xiangxiang's shoulder tightened: "I'm sorry Xiangling, if my status in the Qin family wasn't so low, that beast Qin Haoyuan wouldn't dare to treat you like this."

Gu Xiangling shook her head lightly, grabbed Qin Haoran's hand and put her face on his palm: "No, young master, if you hadn't protected Xiangling just now, young master, Xiangling would have been... so young master, in Xiangling's eyes, you are The best and the best!"

In the quiet space, Gu Xiangling's rhythmic heartbeat and soft breathing sounded like a lullaby, making Qin Haoran very calm, and Gu Xiangling's trust in him was also like a warm catkin, enveloping his heart Anger and mania are all smoothed out.

And Gu Xiangling is also very attached to Qin Haoran's embrace. She remembers that when she was a child, she leaned in Xu Fangfei's embrace like now, and felt that it was the safest and warmest place in the world.

After Xu Fangfei's death, due to Zhao Ya and Meng Huijia's old grievances towards Xu Fangfei, Gu Xiangling's life in Qin's house was very difficult. Not only was he often excluded and bullied by other servants, but he also had to take care of Qin's second son's daily life. Her frail shoulders bear too much and too heavy a burden.

But she has never been afraid, and always does all the work properly, because she promised Xu Fangfei to take good care of Qin Haoran, and she can't live up to Xu Fangfei's entrustment to her like a reborn parent.

But when she faced Qin Haoyuan and others' ferocity just now, she was really scared, and finally knew that there were some things that she could do nothing about.

Shrinking into Qin Haoran's arms, Gu Xiangling suddenly felt a kind of exhaustion. No matter how hard or tired she was before, she never felt like this now. It seemed that she had finally found a place to rely on, and she really wanted to be in this warm and safe place. Have a good night's sleep.

At this moment, the iron door of the cellar opened, and a blunt voice came from outside: "Second Young Master, Xiang Ling, Master wants you to go to the hall on the second floor, please come with us."

Hearing this, Gu Xiangling's heart was full of worry, because Qin Haoran had hurt those wealthy sons just now, and even broke Qin Haoyuan's hands, and he didn't know how Qin Zhongyuan would punish him.

It doesn't matter how you get punished and suffer, but Gu Xiangling doesn't want Qin Haoran to suffer for himself.

"Don't be afraid, with me here, no one can hurt you." Qin Haoran seemed to be able to feel her uneasy heartbeat, so he comforted her softly.

"En." After hearing Qin Haoran's words, Gu Xiangling's worries were really swept away, and she only felt that with Qin Haoran by her side, there was no need to be afraid even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of her.

There are two halls in the Qin family's mansion. The hall on the first floor is used for banquets, such as the party just held.The hall on the second floor is used by the Qin family for family gatherings or for members of the family to discuss and make decisions.

When Qin Haoran and Gu Xiangling were brought up by the servants, they saw that except for Qin Haoyuan who was injured and sent to the hospital, all the family members of the Qin family had arrived. Not only that, the parents and parents of those wealthy sons were all here, sitting around those At the guest table, after seeing Qin Haoran and Gu Xiangling coming in, they all cast their resentful gazes over.

Qin Zhongyuan naturally sat on the main seat on the north side of the hall, with Zhao Ya and Meng Huijia on the two sides, Qin Jiangshan and Jiang Yurou on the left, and the third son of the Qin family sitting next to Meng Huijia Qin Haohan.

In addition to these people, Feng Chengcheng was also sitting next to Qin Haohan, looking at Qin Haoran with calm eyes.

Seeing such a formation, Qin Haoran looked calm and sneered in his heart: hum!Do you want to put me on trial?

As Qin Haoran expected, he and Gu Xiangling were brought to the center of the hall, facing Qin Zhongyuan who was like a judge in front.

"Bastard, kneel down!" Qin Zhongyuan shouted coldly, his brows were majestic.

Although Qin Haoran had no father or mother in his "previous life", he was a very traditional person, and he agreed with the ancient etiquette of kneeling down and worshiping "heaven, earth, ruler, relatives and teachers".

Now Qin Zhongyuan is the biological father of Qin Haoran's current body, according to Qin Haoran's concept, there is nothing wrong with kneeling to Qin Zhongyuan.But Qin Haoran doesn't approve of Qin Zhongyuan at all in his heart, and Qin Zhongyuan has no father-son affection no matter whether he was the "Second Young Master Qin" in the past or the present Qin Haoran, so Qin Haoran is not willing to kneel down to such a person at all .

When Qin Zhongyuan saw that Qin Haoran dared to defy him, he immediately became furious, slapped the armrest heavily and said angrily: "Bastard, do you still dare to rebel? Master Huang, let this rebellious son kneel down!"

Then he saw a bony old man in his sixties, not tall, wearing a black silk Tang shirt coming out from the side, and came straight to Qin Haoran.

Although the sixty-year-old man has frequent appearances, Qin Haoran has never heard of such a person in the Qin family from Gu Xiangling, but he can tell at a glance that the old man is a hidden martial arts master, the kind of person who is really good at martial arts. A master of martial arts may not be able to cope with a strong player of this level with his own fighting skills.

Sure enough, as soon as the old man Qin Zhongyuan respectfully called "Master Huang" came to Qin Haoran, he stretched out his left hand and pressed Qin Haoran's shoulder. touched Qin Haoran's shoulder.

Qin Haoran only felt that his shoulders seemed to be clasped by iron hoops, as if Master Huang's fingers had pierced through the flesh and directly clasped his bones.

At the same time, Qin Haoran also felt that Master Huang's gesture was heavy and heavy, and he didn't know how the jagged, dead branch-like hand possessed such a huge force, which made Qin Haoran unable to support himself, and knelt down on one knee.

However, Qin Haoran's expression was still stubborn and unyielding, staring closely at the expressionless Master Huang, still holding his strength.

"Master!" Seeing Qin Haoran knelt down by Master Huang's hand, Gu Xiangling next to her was to grab Master Huang's hand so that he could let Qin Haoran go.

Master Huang snorted coldly, and turned his hands to pat the slender catkin stretched out by Gu Xiangling.

Qin Haoran was shocked, with Master Huang's hand strength, even if Gu Xiangling was touched by him, his tendons would be broken.

"Don't touch her!" Qin Haoran snorted coldly, concentrated all his strength on his fist, and hit Master Huang's abdomen directly.

Master Huang was caught off guard, just like this, he received Qin Haoran's punch, and immediately retreated three steps, but there was no pain, but he was astonished by Qin Haoran's strength, and looked at him in amazement.

And Qin Haoran has stood up again at this time, but his fist is painful. Just now, he hit Master Huang's lower abdomen, and it felt like he was hit on an iron plate. The coaches of those special brigades in the "previous life" were much deeper.

"You bastard, are you really lawless?" Qin Zhongyuan said angrily: "You are nervous about your maid, aren't you? Well, if you don't listen to the teaching, I will immediately have someone sell her into the Kowloon Walled City and let her Thousands of people sleep on it every day, and thousands of people ride it!"

Qin Haoran immediately glared at Qin Zhongyuan when he heard the words, but what he saw was Qin Zhongyuan's more ruthless eyes.

The two just stared at each other.

Qin Haoran's chest heaved violently, and he breathed heavily. After a while, he finally lowered his stubborn head and knelt down slowly.

"Master..." Gu Xiangling's face was full of tears, because she knew that Qin Haoran knelt down because of her.

She also knelt down and leaned tightly beside Qin Haoran.

Qin Zhongyuan looked coldly at Qin Haoran and Gu Xiangling who were kneeling in the middle of the hall, and after a long time, he clasped his fists at the family members of the "victims" present, and said, "I'm sorry, everyone, I blame Qin's godson for being stubborn. No way, let everyone laugh."

The parents of those rich and noble families quickly replied: "Mr. Qin is serious."

Then, Qin Zhongyuan's gaze returned to Qin Haoran again, and asked with a cold snort: "Beast, after so long introspecting in the cellar, have you figured it out yet?"

"I figured it out." Qin Haoran still lowered his head and didn't look at Qin Zhongyuan, and his voice didn't sound emotional.

"Then do you know it's wrong?"

"I'm not wrong." Qin Haoran's tone was still calm.

Qin Zhongyuan stared at him, but Zhao Ya who was beside him rushed to speak before him, pointing at Qin Haoran and angrily scolded: "How dare you say that you are right? Haoyuan is your elder brother, and he is still lying in the hospital Woolen cloth!"
