The news brought by Nick made Noah's leisurely days busy again. He went to work early in the morning, even though the wind and snow were much heavier and the temperature was much colder than usual.

As long as Ryan is alive, he will never have a moment of peace.

Qi Yuan also has his own things to do today.

Today was his first day officially starting work at Croford.

Qi Yuan arrived on time as scheduled for work.

Inside the factory, the workers were busy early in the morning, and the noise of the machines running could be heard from next door.

When Qi arrived at Crawford's office.

Besides Crawford, Dunlop was also in the office.

Dunlop's face was grim and imposing, while Crawford stood quietly to the side like a child who had admitted his mistake.

Seeing the tense atmosphere in the office, Qi Yuan said, "If you're busy, I'll come back later?"

“I waited for you here on purpose, Crawford, you can leave now,” Dunlop said.

Croft looked at him, then at Qi Yuan, and said, "Patriarch, this project cannot be done without Mr. Qi Yuan..."

"Alright! I don't want to kick him out, I want to talk to him about something else!" Dunlop said impatiently.

Upon hearing this, Croft said nothing more and turned to leave.

After Croft left, Dunlop sighed, "You and Noah beat up Don the night before last?"

"Mr. Dunlop, isn't it a bit late to ask about something that happened the day before yesterday?"

“I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless, breaking his ribs and limbs. He’ll be bedridden for at least two months,” Dunlop said.

Qi Yuan didn't dare to speak. He hadn't hit anyone in a while, and he hadn't been able to control his strength in time. It was his fault.

“I came to find you not to cause you trouble. I know what kind of person that kid is. I feel guilty towards his mother, so I turned a blind eye to him. But when I looked at him properly, I found that he had become such a depraved person.”

"But because I'm his father, I know his current personality is one of seeking revenge, and he might come looking for trouble as soon as he recovers from his injuries," Dunlop added.

Qi Yuan became more serious. "He dares to cause me trouble?"

"He's not very bright, that's why he dares to do it."

Qi Yuan: "..." I don't know how to complain.

"Noah is taking you to beat him up personally, which shows that Noah likes you a lot now. So if he causes you trouble and you catch him, can you please not kill him? You can cripple him if you want."

Qi Yuan was completely baffled by Dunlop's request. "Mr. Dunlop, since you know he'll come looking for trouble and get beaten up by us, why aren't you keeping an eye on him now?"

“I can’t control him. He offended the Clarence family before. I warned him and beat him up, but he still injured a Clarence member and made me pay a lot of money. That brat, I just beg him not to die in front of me, I don’t care about anything else.”

Qi Yuan didn't know how disappointed Dunlop was in Donn that he would say such a thing, but he couldn't agree to Dunlop's words.

“Mr. Dunlop, I cannot grant your request.”

"why?"

"If I spare the life of someone who tried to hurt me, or even kill me, it would be like stabbing myself in the back. If you can't control him, don't try to morally blackmail us." Qi Yuan's attitude was serious and firm, without the slightest compromise.

He looked intently at Dunlop, "We didn't beat up Don for no reason. That guy has a foul mouth, he curses people randomly and tramples on other people's dignity. If you don't teach your son properly, don't blame others for teaching him for you!"

Qi Yuan refused to back down at all.

Think about that guy Donn. He doesn't do anything serious, he has no skills whatsoever, and he acts arrogantly and domineeringly just because he's the second young master of the Leopold family.

He disrespects people today, and even if it's not Qi Yuan and Noah in the future, someone he has hurt will always kill him.

However, if Don causes him trouble again, he wouldn't mind being the one to kill Don.

Dunlop hadn't expected Qi Yuan to be so resolute and decisive.

But something felt off.

In fact, Qi Yuan is seen as a good person by many people in Juecheng.

His image as a good person mainly stems from the fact that his restaurant still offers free food under the guise of tasting, and that he has donated a large sum of money to the church.

Everyone says he is kind.

But where is the kindness in this?

Avenging every wrong must be done, okay?

"Do you talk to Noah like that too?" Dunlop couldn't help but ask. "Does he know how stubborn you are?"

"I don't think I need to tell you about my relationship with Noah. Mr. Dunlop, you can teach Mr. Donn properly. Don't think that being kind means you should be tolerant. If he has even the slightest thought of killing me, I will kill him. If he dies by my hand and you want to settle accounts with me, I'm not afraid to settle accounts with you."

Qi Yuan's eyes were as sharp as a fierce wolf on the grassland, unyielding and defiant.

Dunlop felt very uncomfortable hearing his words.

However, this has always been the case in the North Continent.

If you kill me, I will kill you.

If Donn strikes first and gets killed, he will be in the wrong.

Thinking about Don's personality, Dunlop felt a throbbing headache.

He looked at Qi Yuan again, knowing there was no room for negotiation, and could only say, "I'm sorry to bother you."

After saying that, Dunlop turned and left.

As soon as he went out, Crawford came in.

He looked at Qi Yuan's serious face and asked, "Mr. Qi Yuan, is the patriarch making things difficult for you?"

"No, there aren't many people in the Northern Continent who dare to make things difficult for me now."

Croft looked at Qi Yuan with some surprise, as if he thought Qi Yuan was bragging.

Qi Yuan didn't pay attention to his expression and changed the subject, "Mr. Crawford, what do you think of Mr. Dunlop?"

Although he had just made some harsh remarks to the other party, Qi Yuan was still worried that if that really happened, Dunlop might seek revenge. After all, he must be a father who dotes on his son, having personally come to him to plead for him.

It's always better to find out more about the other party before anything happens.

“I don’t know either. Although he is my brother-in-law, I haven’t spent much time with him.”

Qi Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Is he your brother-in-law?"

Keep in mind that Croft was only a few years older than Qi Yuan, but Dunlop was at least twenty years older than them.

Croft was a little embarrassed, smiled, and said, "His current wife is my wife's sister, so he is also my brother-in-law. However, I don't treat him as my brother-in-law; I treat him as the head of the family, just like everyone else."

"To be honest, although the head of the family has a bad temper, he doesn't seem to be cruel enough to beat you up if you say something he doesn't like."
