Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1425: Chapter 778: The Ruthlessness of the Qing Clan House Master (Part 2)

The adjutant pondered for a moment: ”But a surprise attack may not be suitable for the frontline battlefield.”

Qing Yu shook his head: ”Having us on the frontline is enough.”

”You tacitly agree that he wants to become the Family Head...”

Qing Yu laughed: ”We don’t have any other choice, do we?”

”You currently hold military power...”

Qing Yu shook his head: ”Me? I’m not the type to be a Family Head. If I were to become the Family Head, Qing’s Family wouldn’t last long.”

He looked at the adjutant: ”Let’s go, inspect the camp, tonight we may have to kill a lot of people.”

At this moment, there were no longer any Jindai or Deer Island troops on the northern frontline, so the only ones he could kill were his own people.

Qing’s Group Army gathered on the front lines due to the war, and although Qing Yu was the commander-in-chief, the frontline wasn’t solely composed of his troops.

Qing Shi’s father’s troops, Qing Wen’s mother’s troops, Qing Yuan’s father’s troops, were all here just following the overall command.

Tonight in City 5, people are making a move against the Family Head and Qing Chen, and it’s feared the frontline is also fully prepared.

Those politicians and businessmen making a move are merely being pushed as figureheads, the real show is still in the shadows.

This is also why he sent Qing Chi back to rotate for rest.

...

...

Inside the banquet hall of City 5, it remained quiet.

Ke Rouli, wearing a black evening dress, secretly observed the crowd.

She watched those who had just questioned Qing Chen all fall silent, feeling secretly pleased, as if it wasn’t Qing Chen who had won a round, but her...

She saw people silently exchanging glances, and even saw some with embarrassed panic on their faces.

Only Qing Chen remained calmly grabbing snacks from the table, as if what Qing Chi had just said had nothing to do with him.

Her friend whispered beside her: ”No wonder you want to marry him.”

Ke Rouli calmly said: ”You don’t understand.”

Others thought she admired Qing Chen, but only she truly understood her feelings, which were a form of worship beyond admiration, unrelated to gender.

No one of her age could truly understand an ambitious person.

As an ambitious individual,

while other girls focused on cosmetics and boyfriends, Ke Rouli had already begun paying attention to current affairs every day.

From the time when Qing Chen was still the director of Intelligence Department One, she started silently watching him, gathering all information related to Qing Chen.

Then she gradually witnessed Qing Chen’s influence growing larger and larger.

Unlike other girls, Ke Rouli was like a career fan of Qing Chen, only caring about the progress of Qing Chen’s career...

A so-called career fan refers to someone who is very concerned about their idol’s career development, focusing on aspects such as resource acquisition, business development, industry reputation, and award achievements, even using this information as metrics to choose their idol.

And Ke Rouli was precisely such a fan of Qing Chen, willing to devote herself to supporting Qing Chen’s career.

So when she met Yang Yang during a blind date, she just felt that this colleague was really impressive and must be able to provide significant help to Qing Chen’s career!

Of course, a career fan is just a metaphor; Ke Rouli was not a genuine career fan. While paying attention to Qing Chen’s career growth, she also hoped to participate and fulfill her role, allowing her own clan to enjoy the fruits of success.

So she is an ambitious person.

Her friend softly asked: ”When you stood up for him just now, did you already know that people from the military would come to support him?”

”I didn’t know,” Ke Rouli calmly replied.

”Then what if he loses tonight,” her friend asked, puzzled: ”If he loses, your whole family won’t be able to stand firm.”

Ke Rouli shook her head: ”Playing this game, to gain the greatest benefit, one must be firm enough, either live together or die together, there’s no other option.”

”Now that even Qing Yu has come forward to support him, does that mean the outcome is determined?” her friend asked softly.

Ke Rouli still shook her head: ”It’s not that simple. The military isn’t solely Qing Yu’s decision. If they’ve dared to stand up tonight, they must have their own support. This is just the beginning.”

At this moment, a middle-aged man in the banquet hall looked at Qing Chen: ”Even with your remarkable military achievements, you still can’t shake off the suspicion of being possessed, and the dead Jindai Family Master might just be a shell. Now, I even suspect you are the Jindai Family Master.”

Qing Ji, beside Qing Chen, said: ”It seems they’ve made up their minds to pin this dung pot on you tonight, convinced you can’t clear your name.”

Qing Chen nodded: ”So, if tomorrow the Family Head still intends to push me to be elected chairman of the board, they will incite the military to say Qing’s Family has been usurped by Jindai, instigating a coup? Even if Qing Yu supports me, they can use this as an opportunity to remove Qing Yu?”

”That’s probably the thinking,” Qing Ji nodded.

Qing Chen curiously asked, as if no one else was around: ”But won’t this lead to civil war within Qing’s Family, aren’t they afraid that the Kingdom, Jindai, and Deer Island will immediately make a comeback? At that time, the frontline could be disrupted.”

Qing Ji sneered: ”Qing Yun lost her son and has already gone mad.”

The various forces of the frontline troops were now intricately interwoven, cooperating externally but not necessarily internally.

Many people assumed that because Qing Yu was the frontline commander, all the troops must be directly loyal to him, which is not the case. He’s just someone trying to unite the troops.

This is the confidence the people at the banquet have in daring to challenge Qing Chen and the Family Head.
