Fishing Guild Headquarters!

"t the Gang Leader!"

Qin Ying clasped his fists, looking at Nan Batian in front of him. It was getting dark, and Nan Batian was sitting in the study, his brows furrowed with worry.

It was even apparent that he was sowhat uneasy.

Qin Ying didn’t know why Nan Batian was like this, so he clasped his fists in greeting anyway.

Nan Batian looked at Qin Ying and asked, "What brings you here so late at night?"

Qin Ying replied, "Gang Leader, it’s like this, I have connections in Huangzhou Prefecture and have borrowed thirty rchant ships, so I’ve co to inform you, hoping to help you through the Fishing Guild’s financial difficulties."

Nan Batian was taken aback and glanced at Qin Ying, who instantly felt alert. Did he see sothing wrong?

However, Qin Ying kept his composure, his face still bearing a smile despite so inner tension.

Suddenly, a slight smile appeared on Nan Batian’s face. He looked at Qin Ying and asked, "Ah Ying, how long have you been with ?"

Qin Ying imdiately replied with a bow, "It should be seven or eight years now."

Nan Batian said, "Yes, seven or eight years. In fact, over these years, you have dedicated yourself fully, truly laboring diligently for the sake of the Fishing Guild."

Qin Ying’s expression changed slightly, but he still clasped his fists and replied, "It’s all part of my duties."

Nan Batian then reminisced, "Back when you three brothers joined the Fishing Guild, you were only seventeen or eighteen, daring and tenacious. I could tell at a glance that you were good seeds for accomplishing great deeds. Unfortunately, the Hall Master of Wild Wolf Hall was against you, setting traps for you multiple tis. Later, you proved your worth to and Wild Wolf Hall beca what is now Eagle Hall."

"Thinking back, it truly fills one with emotions. Our connection has grown deep over the years."

Qin Ying respectfully said, "If it were not for the Gang Leader’s support, Qin Ying would never have had a chance to rise. I will forever be grateful for your great kindness!"

Nan Batian said, "Ah, let’s not talk about these things. Recently, I’ve been tricked by Chen Jiusi, feeling dizzy and anxious. In my haste, I may have acted improperly. A few days ago, I called you useless in a mont of anger, Ah Ying, you don’t hold that against , do you?"

Nan Batian looked at Qin Ying as he asked.

Qin Ying hurriedly clasped his fists and replied, "Gang Leader is jesting. To Qin Ying, you are like a master; a master scolding his disciple a few tis doesn’t create resentnt. Be assured, Gang Leader, I bear no grudges."

Nan Batian took Qin Ying’s words earnestly and looked at him saying, "Really?"

Qin Ying clasped his fists, "No grudges at all. I regard you as a ntor and father. Your scolding is but a sign of your care for , I am grateful for it, not resentful."

Nan Batian, relieved by these words, patted Qin Ying’s shoulder and said, "Good, I’m glad you think that way. I was afraid your feelings towards would change because of that, which would affect our relationship."

Qin Ying said, "Yes, Gang Leader, our relationship cannot be tainted by others."

Nan Batian nodded lightly, "Hmm, indeed, worthy of my trust. Qin Ying, if in the future I no longer serve as Gang Leader, I will pass the position to you."

Qin Ying frowned upon hearing this, ’Pass it to ? As if,’ but he didn’t voice his thoughts and instead feigned excitent, "Thank you, Gang Leader, for your promotion."

Nan Batian nodded lightly and picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip and then asked, "By the way, Ah Ying, did you see Mr. Tang today?"

Qin Ying’s eyes widened suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, his pulse quickened—why was he asking this now? Had he discovered sothing?

Qin Ying’s internal alarms were blaring, but he still tried to control his expression, showing calm as much as possible, "t him. He ca to my Eagle Hall this afternoon, we chatted for a bit, then he left."

Nan Batian asked, "Did he seem unusual in any way?"

Qin Ying furrowed his brows, "No, nothing unusual. He was just as usual, nothing amiss."

Nan Batian asked, "Then where could he have gone?"

Qin Ying exclaid in surprise, "Mr. Tang is missing?"

Nan Batian looked grim, "Yes, I went to look for him this afternoon, his family said he went out, but he hadn’t returned even by evening."

Qin Ying puzzled, "Then where could he have gone? Went to buy books?"

Tang Ziyue enjoyed reading books, which everyone knew, so Qin Ying naturally suggested that he might have gone to buy books.

Nan Batian said, "No, I have had people search all the bookstores in the city, but still ca up empty."

"Could it be that he’s been kidnapped!"

Qin Ying urgently said, "Chen Jiusi has been clashing fiercely with you lately, Mr. Tang being your advisor, could Chen Jiusi have taken this chance to kidnap Tang Ziyue, thereby crippling you?"

Nan Batian frowned deeply, "He would dare to do that?"

Qin Ying said, "Chen Jiusi is ruthless and daring, capable of doing anything!"

Nantian Batian’s brows furrowed deeply, Qin Ying continued, "Gang Leader, should I send soone to look for him? Mr. Tang has made significant contributions to our guild, we cannot let Chen Jiusi harm him without any clarity."

Nan Batian pondered for a long while, then raised his hand, "No need. If Ziyue has been kidnapped, it’s not a big deal, Chen Jiusi wouldn’t dare to do much. I’m more worried that Ziyue might have gone to Yelu."

"Uh?"

Qin Ying felt his heart nearly leap out of his chest, ’Gone to Yelu, my god, are you hinting at sothing?’

Could his own little sche have been seen through?

That can’t be, right?
