Li Yang followed the two inside. Since he wasn't there to meet his future in-laws, he wasn't nervous and had the leisure to look around.
"So you're the young lady's boyfriend?" Suddenly, a fierce-looking young man walked out, carrying a sharp steel knife.
"Knife! Don't be reckless, he's just my friend." Song Tian'er said nervously, her face serious.
"Is that so?" Daozi's expression was indifferent. Suddenly, he appeared in front of Li Yang, his cold light flashing as he pressed against Li Yang's neck.
Li Yang sneered inwardly. "Damn it, trying to test my limits and strength? Dream on." He stared motionless as the knife hurtled towards him.
Hmph, I won't resist, but you wouldn't dare do anything to me, would you? Hmm, it's best to show some strength first, otherwise how will I persuade Song Qin later? I'll just have to show some courage.
"don't want"
Song Tian'er gasped in shock, her face paling, but it was too late; she was still some distance from Li Yang.
Song Qin remained smiling, seemingly oblivious to everything happening around him, though a sharp glint in his eyes revealed that he was also paying close attention to the conflict.
However, everyone was stunned.

Even Daozi was a little annoyed. He looked at Li Yang in confusion and asked, "Why didn't you dodge or fight back?"
"Damn it, I'll admire you if you dare to cut it off! You're obviously just trying to scare me. If I were scared by you, it would be stupid for me to fight back or run away!" Li Yang disdainfully pushed away the knife that was standing in front of him. He held a sharp, thin blade in his hand, an inch away from Li Yang's throat. With a little force, a gash would appear in Li Yang's throat, blood would gush out, and he would die.
"Good! Not bad! You've got guts! You've passed the test, you can now pursue my daughter!" Song Qin suddenly clapped and laughed heartily.
Song Tian'er was also stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed red, and she angrily punched her father, saying, "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about? You old rascal!"
Li Yang chuckled smugly, but inwardly he was cursing, "Damn, I almost peed my pants in fear, and my legs are still a bit weak!"
But since none of you can tell, hehe, it doesn't matter.
"Thank you, Master Song. I will definitely work harder and harder to win over Sister Song!" Li Yang chuckled lewdly, staring at Song Tian'er's plump buttocks.
Song Tian'er glared at him, but didn't say anything more. However, the undisguised shyness in her eyes betrayed her true feelings.
The four entered Song Qin's study and sat down as host and guest.
"Speak, it takes skill to persuade my daughter to bring you to see me personally." Song Qin was no longer the kind father, but a stern-looking underworld boss.
The knife stood faithfully behind him, seemingly oblivious to everything, but Li Yang was certain that if he made the slightest movement, the knife would be shot out without hesitation.
However, if it were a fight without knives, Li Yang was confident that he could hold his own for a while.
"Nothing much. Just a gift of wealth and honor for Master Song." Li Yang's words were startling.
Song Qin raised an eyebrow, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes, then said somewhat perfunctorily, "Oh? Young man, why don't you tell me?"
Li Yang knew that he didn't trust him and was just putting on a show. The only reason he saw him was because of Song Tian'er, who was pretending to be a good girl.
"With the leadership transition imminent, the old Party Secretary has stepped down and gone home to retire. Mayor Cai has emerged victorious, becoming the top leader of Jiangdong City. His pent-up resentment from the past few years is likely to be astonishing." Li Yang didn't care about his attitude; he would naturally make him go from arrogant to obsequious in a moment.
Song Qin's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he looked at Li Yang with a serious expression. How could such a greenhorn have such insight?
Aren't these little brats just fantasizing about their beautiful female teachers? He couldn't help but glance at Song Tian'er, wondering if she had arranged it.
Song Tian'er hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands to show her innocence.
"So what?" Song Qin remained unmoved, staring at Li Yang. He wanted to see what other surprising things Li Yang could say.
"Not so great! As the old secretary's underground spokesperson, I think Master Song will be a good punching bag, a punching bag for the new secretary, Secretary Cai!" Li Yang said without giving any face.
Knife was indeed displeased, glaring at him and saying, "Watch your words!"
"Hehe... What's there to worry about? Before long, the famous Master Song might be a prisoner or a beggar on the street! What do I have to be afraid of!" Li Yang said arrogantly and smugly.
These words annoyed Song Tian'er, who retorted, "Li Yang, even if my father has lost power, I'm still here. I can earn money to support him."
"Really? It seems you're in trouble yourself too, aren't you? You're not staying on a good university campus, but running around here with Teacher Cao, just loafing around. Didn't you run into a huge problem? A huge problem that you can't solve! Otherwise, you wouldn't be hiding here alone, especially since your fiery temper would never allow you to hide like this!" Li Yang said, as if he could see right through Song Tian'er.
Song Tian'er's pretty face changed drastically, as if she had seen Li Yang all over again. Her heart suddenly raced and her face turned slightly pale, because Li Yang had hit the nail on the head. She had indeed encountered an unsolvable problem: she had been noticed by Zhu Changfa, the eldest son of the domestic jewelry giant, Brilliant Years Jewelry Group, who claimed that he would take her as his private concubine and raise her as a canary!
Even the municipal party secretary, Secretary Cai, would have to be wary of such a wealthy young master from a large corporation. What else could she do but run away? Unless she was willing to become someone's sex toy, a caged bird.
Otherwise, given her temperament, she would never have acted like a coward and hidden away.
She began to understand why he said talking to that bastard Mei Fu left him dizzy and exhausted. Would he also be dizzy and exhausted after this conversation?
What kind of person is he, and how many secrets is he still hiding?
If she knew that Li Yang used supernatural abilities to deal with Mei Fu, but relied entirely on his intellect and reasoning to deal with her, she would definitely be shocked once again. His mind is simply invincible.
This time, Song Qin's expression changed drastically. He was also very curious as to why his daughter, who had always been unwilling to go home and longed for an exciting and adventurous life, had suddenly returned home. However, he was not comfortable asking her directly, so he sent someone to secretly inquire at her school. The information he received was exactly the same as Li Yang's.
"Hmph, what's so surprising? Anyone could easily find out such information by sending someone to Jiangsu and Zhejiang." Song Qin sneered, still unwilling to admit that he was stunned by a boy who hadn't even grown his hair yet.
Li Yang chuckled and said, "Given how much Mr. Song dotes on his daughter, surely he would investigate the family background and financial situation of a boy who is very close to her? I think all of this is enough to tell you, Mr. Song, that I am just an ordinary high school student from an ordinary family. What financial resources or ability do I have to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to gather such information? Also, have I left Jiangdong City recently?"
Master Song felt somewhat powerless, but even more so, he was astonished. Indeed, the young man before him had given him a tremendous surprise. It was the first time in decades that he had encountered such an extraordinary young man.
The renowned Master Song was stunned by a high school senior, finding it hard to accept yet having no choice but to. He suddenly felt a sense of melancholy, like the Yangtze River's waves pushing the old ones aside, leaving the old ones to die on the beach.
Is he really getting old?
"Master Song, you are still the renowned Master Song. Although your influence in the underworld has weakened recently, and those clowns who used to be so arrogant now dare to point fingers at you, I guarantee that after today, you will still be the Master Song whose word is law, whose every word resonates throughout Jiangdong City!" Li Yang had intimidated him enough and was now offering benefits. He couldn't keep intimidating him forever, could he?
"What do you mean?" Master Song unconsciously lowered his posture and began to take Li Yang seriously, which could be seen from his serious expression and unconsciously hunched over.
