"Feifan, come out..."

Gambling King He's words had just fallen when he immediately turned his head, looking at He Feifan who was sitting properly over there, and suddenly shouted.

He Feifan trembled almost instantly upon hearing Gambling King He's call, though he tried hard to control it, he couldn't completely hide it.

"Kneel down..."

As He Feifan gradually approached, Gambling King He's tone suddenly turned severe, and he shouted sternly.

Thud~~

He Feifan already felt uneasy, and suddenly upon hearing Gambling King He's shout, his knees went weak, and he immediately knelt down on the ground.

Whether He Feifan had practiced in advance or was naturally proficient, as soon as Gambling King He shouted, he immediately displayed a standard kneeling posture.

"Not facing me, face him... You know what you've done... Go apologize to Qin Xiaozi!"

Gambling King He seemed oblivious, looking at He Feifan who was kneeling in front of him, his tone even more severe as he shouted.

"Father..."

He Feifan's face suddenly turned extremely ugly, almost plum-colored.

As a scion of a wealthy family like him, the times he had to kneel could be counted on one hand; other than his own father, he hadn't knelt to anyone.

But now his father was asking him to kneel to Qin Fang... How could he accept it!

He had always been proud to be a young master of the He family, which fueled his arrogance, and all of it was based on having a supremely powerful father.

But now his greatest reliance was not standing by his side, as his heart bled, he bore intense hatred towards Qin Fang.

It's not just He Feifan who couldn't take it; the rest of the He family, upon witnessing this scene, were extremely shocked and found it hard to accept.

Among them, the reaction from He Yuanbing was the strongest.

Although she wasn't the eldest among the He siblings, her status was the most illustrious; as the heir to the He Clan Gambling Group, while others could only hold certain shares.

Because of this, He Yuanbing became the backbone among the dozen siblings, and when any serious matter arose, the others would always look to her for direction.

The situation was no different now...

Qin Fang is an outsider, He Feifan is their brother.

Yet their father asked their brother to kneel to an outsider, which was unacceptable not just to He Feifan, but to all these siblings.

"Father..."

At this time, all the siblings looked at the Sixth Miss, He Yuanbing, forcing her to speak despite fearing their father's anger; otherwise, her authority among them would be completely undermined...

"It's none of your business..."

Gambling King He swept his gaze, and the fierceness in his eyes made people tremble; He Yuanbing had to swallow back the words she was about to say.

Outside, she could be a formidable lady boss, steering a billion-dollar group, but at home, true authority belonged to the elderly and frail father... Gambling King He!

He Yuanbing dared not utter a word, and the others were even more silent, afraid to displease Gambling King He for fear of a dire consequence.

Slap~~

He Feifan hesitated, resulting in Gambling King He unceremoniously delivering a slap; though now fragile, the slap drew blood from He Feifan's nose, showing how hard the old man struck, not just putting on a show.

"Didn't you hear me?"

Gambling King He was determined to resolve the matter between He Feifan and Qin Fang and wouldn't just make gestures; the slap didn't vent his anger enough, so he roared again.

He Feifan's face turned purplish-blue, appearing extremely gloomy, as he mentally cursed Qin Fang with gritted teeth.

But when faced with his father's order, he could muster no retort, lacking both the courage and guts, due to Gambling King He's overwhelming authority in the He family.

He Feifan remained silent for a while, seemingly pondering, possibly debating, though the question proved a hard one.

At this point, Qin Fang's surprise subsided, wearing a sarcastic smile as he gazed at He Feifan before him, curious about the final choice he'd make.

"Hiss~~"

Taking a deep breath, He Feifan's face slightly lightened, appearing less unsightly.

He then promptly turned, facing Qin Fang, and actually knelt down, "Qin Fang, I'm sorry... I lost my mind trying to deal with you... I now seek your forgiveness..."

This outcome took Qin Fang and others by surprise; He Feifan, who never suffered losses, not only lost but suffered greatly, kneeling before his nemesis to plead.

At this moment, He Feifan kneeled before Qin Fang, bearing remorseful features, evident in his pitiful state to onlookers...

"Qin Xiaozi, Feifan has come to this, grievances should be resolved rather than accumulated, I think this misunderstanding between you two should be let go..."

Seeing his son kneel to Qin Fang, Gambling King He showed no change in expression, even persuading Qin Fang.

He Feifan's move was quite brilliant indeed, practically placing Qin Fang between a rock and a hard place, forcing him to make a choice.

Of course, Gambling King He was behind this trick; evidently his handiwork... Leaving one unable to retort!

"Then let's end it here..."

The move was truly formidable, forcing Qin Fang to agree not to pursue the matter further, "But if there's a next time, don't blame me for being unkind..."

Some words had to be said as a precaution, or if action was taken later, it could easily draw criticism, leading to a poor exchange.

Though Qin Fang agreed not to pursue this matter verbally, he didn't actually feel that way inside.

"That He Feifan is truly a sly man..."

Looking at He Feifan's seemingly sincere expression, if Qin Fang hadn't seen the intense, almost inseparable red aura surrounding He Feifan, he might've really thought He Feifan was genuinely apologizing.

He Feifan was a scoundrel with a petty mind; one look at his recent actions shows his magnanimity isn't grand.

At Qin Fang's hand, suffering losses time after time without gaining any advantage, eventually getting forced to this point; Qin Fang singlehandedly caused it all.

Yet here he was, apologizing, kneeling, begging Qin Fang... Such an ordeal made Qin Fang He Feifan's greatest enemy.

Hence, He Feifan's hatred for Qin Fang was unprecedentedly intense, as though considering him an enemy who killed his father... Or some deep-seated vendetta exists between them!

"Oh Gambling King He, perhaps you're astute all your life, but didn't expect your son to be so disappointing..."

He Feifan harbored such hatred against him, impossible to forget completely, seeing the dense red aura around him, one could guess He Feifan requested forgiveness verbally yet might be plotting Qin Fang's demise in secret...

Even Gambling King He, a masterful hero, also overlooked his son He Feifan's nature; words spoken were sweet, but his true intentions inside weren't necessarily aligned.

"Hmm, playing dirty... Could I fear you?"

Qin Fang could handle Ma Shengye, and those around He Feifan were hardly worth considering; Qin Fang didn't view him as a threat.

Moreover, when it comes to sneaky tactics, Qin Fang was a future King of Assassins, lacking such skills would mean he'd been wasting his time... (To be continued.
