Chapter 847: Chapter 847 Identity

Lan Xin looked at Guo Pengfei and said, “No need, Mr. Guo, I can go with my friends.”

Guo Pengfei replied with a smile, “It’s no trouble, let’s all go together. Since Princess Lan Xin is here, how can I not show some hospitality?”

This guy had always been following along, Qin Hao could tell that he seemed to have a thing for Lan Xin.

Guo Pengfei was a direct disciple of the Guo Family, while Guo Yanghua was just a capable disciple from a side branch. Their status and positions couldn’t compare at all.

That was why Lan Xin dared to cripple him earlier. If it had been someone like Tang Pengfei, a direct disciple, she wouldn’t have acted rashly.

The elite families of the Nolan Empire were not pushovers, and Lan Xin didn’t want to escalate conflicts between the Guo Family and their royal house.

They arrived at a nearby late-night diner.

Guo Pengfei called over a waiter and said to Lan Xin, “Princess Lan Xin, order anything you like. Tonight, it’s on me.”

As he said this, he glanced at Qin Hao with a flash of sharpness in his eyes, “May I know this gentleman’s name? Which family are you from?”

Qin Hao replied indifferently, “Qin Ritian, from a small family of the Tanglong Empire in the Tanglong Star System.”

Tanglong Empire? Qin Ritian?

Could he be from the Qin Family, one of the top families in the Tanglong Empire? Anyone who could be with Princess Lan Xin shouldn’t be an ordinary person.

Guo Pengfei noticed that Qin Hao didn’t clearly indicate his family, so he didn’t press further, as it was already suggestive enough.

Lan Xin had never asked about Qin Hao’s identity. This was the first time she heard that he was from the Tanglong Empire.

The Qin Family was also one of the top families in the Tanglong Empire, quite comparable to the Guo Family.

While they were talking, two more people walked in. Guo Pengfei glanced over and was startled, “Gu Haoming is here too.”

Gu Haoming walked over with his sister Gu Yuwei and replied with a smile, “Mr. Guo is here too? And isn’t this Princess Lan Xin? What a coincidence.”

Looking at the familiar face of Gu Yuwei, Guo Pengfei remembered seeing her at the casino earlier. However, his attention was mostly on Lan Xin, “Mr. Gu, who is this?”

Gu Haoming introduced, “This is my sister, Gu Yuwei.”

Guo Pengfei connected the dots. Damn, it was probably Gu Yuwei who told him. He recognized her as the young beauty from the gambling table earlier. She glanced at Princess Lan Xin and then at Qin Hao.

“What a coincidence today, let’s all sit and eat together. It’s on me.” Gu Haoming said as he and his sister took their seats.

Guo Pengfei cursed inwardly, Hell, do you think I lack money? You’re clearly here for Princess Lan Xin.

Princess Lan Xin was the most cherished princess of the Nolan Empire’s emperor. Many elite families wanted her to marry into their families.

Moreover, Princess Lan Xin was beautiful and charming, attracting people like Guo Pengfei and Gu Haoming.

Before long, the late-night snacks were served. Gu Haoming curiously asked, looking at Qin Hao beside Lan Xin, “Who is this gentleman?”

“My friend, why?” Lan Xin said, looking at him.

Gu Haoming smiled and said, “Just thought he looked a bit unfamiliar.”

“This is Mr. Qin Ritian from the Tanglong Empire,” Guo Pengfei said from the side.

Gu Haoming nodded, “What’s your relationship with the Qin Family of the Tanglong Empire, Mr. Qin?”

Qin Hao replied vaguely, “Somewhat related.”

Gu Minghao smiled and said, “I’ve met Qin Tian, a brother from the Qin Family, several times. How are you related to him?”

“I don’t know him,” Qin Hao said candidly.

This left Guo Pengfei and Gu Minghao momentarily stunned. Qin Hao didn’t know Qin Family’s heir Qin Tian? What was his relationship with the Qin Family then?

Qin Hao wasn’t lying to them; the relation he mentioned was just their common surname, Qin.

After the meal, Guo Pengfei spoke again, “Princess Lan Xin, my father was delighted to hear of your arrival and wishes to invite you to our home.”

Lan Xin replied flatly, “It’s quite late today, I’ll visit another day.”

“No worries, Princess Lanxi can visit at any time,” Guo Pengfei said with a smile.

Gu Minghao sneered inwardly, damn, this guy is shameless. Princess Lan Xin clearly declined, yet he’s still inviting her.

Lan Xin replied, “Another day then. I will surely visit Mr. Guo’s old family head personally, but not today. We’re leaving now.”

With that, she stood up and walked out, with Qin Hao walking alongside her.

Guo Pengfei glanced at Gu Minghao, “You know Qin Tian of the Tanglong Empire? Find out who this Qin Ritian really is.”

Gu Minghao nodded slightly, “Alright.”

He took out his communicator and called Qin Tian, whom he had met once, and exchanged contact information with.

The communicator quickly connected, and a handsome man appeared before them, smiling faintly, “Mr. Gu, what can I do for you?”

Gu Minghao nodded slightly, “Where are you now, Mr. Qin?”

Qin Tian replied, “I’m on a spaceship. I should be arriving in Divine Wind City soon.”

“Are you also here for the Elf Clan princess and queen?” Gu Minghao asked, surprised.

Qin Tian replied, “Yeah, I’m here to take a look. If I’m lucky, I might win one or two.”

Gu Minghao laughed, “With your skills, it should be easy to win one or two. Remember to contact me when you arrive in Divine Wind City. I’ll treat you to a drink.”

“Alright, I won’t be polite with you then.”

Gu Minghao said, “I have something to ask you.”

“Go ahead and ask.”

Gu Minghao said, “I met someone in Divine Wind City named Qin Ritian. He claims to be related to the Qin Family but doesn’t know you. Do you have such a person in your family?”

“Qin Ritian?” Qin Tian’s expression turned a bit strange upon hearing the name.

“Yes, his name is Qin Ritian.”

Qin Tian replied, “There is no such name among our core disciples. As for the side branch disciples, I’m not sure.”

Gu Minghao nodded, “Alright, thank you. Let me know when you arrive in Divine Wind City.”

…

After the call, Gu Minghao and Guo Pengfei exchanged looks. It seemed Qin Hao wasn’t a core member of the Qin Family, probably just one of the many side branch members.

If that was the case, he wasn’t much of a threat. However, they shouldn’t make things too ugly, as he was still related to the Qin Family, and they had to show some respect.

On their way back, Lan Xin said to Qin Hao, “Ritian, can you do me a favor? Accompany me to visit the Guo Family in a few days?”
