Chapter 18: Asking for an apology
Qin Tian had always wanted to improve his combat power.
Therefore, when he saw the combat skill option, he didn't hesitate in the slightest.
As for the cooking skill? Are you kidding? As rich as I am, when will I have a chance to cook?
So… he chose the combat skill, without further delay.

—————
His luck points were accumulating fast, currently double of an average person.
And after getting the maximum level combat skill, he had a lot more things planned in his mind.
Although his strength points were not enhanced, Qin Tian was sure that his current self was so much stronger than when he only had true qi.
Before, he was like the Void Bamboo inside the novel Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, who only had internal energy but no combat skills.
Before, internal energy was the only thing he could use when fighting, so if he encountered ordinary people, he could still fight with a few.
But if he encountered a real practitioner, he certainly would not be able to stand a chance.
And now, he was like a master.
He had both combat power and internal power.
So even if he met a dozen or so martial artists, he would be able to deal with them easily.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that after not seeing you for so long, Mr. Qin actually gained so much insight?"
Su Zhengyang picked up the wine glass that the waiter had just handed to him and poured a glass of Romanee Conti for Qin Tian.
"Here, Mr. Qin, I'll toast you."
"Please."
Of course, Qin Tian did not turn down the request and picked up the red wine glass.
Red wine, the wine that resembled status and elegance.
Drinking red wine, all one needed was the taste, so the two naturally did not dry the glass like if they were drinking liquor or beer.
After a small sip, the two chatted some more.
As the dishes were served, Su Zhengyang then started talking.
"Mr. Qin, to be honest, this meeting,… apart from the cooperation negotiation, there is a small matter on my side that needs your help, Mr. Qin."
Hearing this, Qin Tian was somewhat able to guess what he wanted, but still said, "If Mr. Su always has something to say, we can go straight to the point, and there’s no need to beat around the bush."
"Oh??"
Qin Tian's quickness made Su Zhengyang a little embarrassed.
"Ahem, since Mr. Qin said so, then I will be more direct. Lin Feng, who ran into your son yesterday, is related to my Su family…"
Su Zhengyang said while carefully observing Qin Tian's expression.
After seeing that the other party didn’t have too much of a reaction, he continued, "Can you please, Mr. Qin, not make a big deal out of it and exempt Lin Feng from going to jail?"
The crime of intentional injury was more than enough for someone to be sent to jail.
But if the victim didn’t want to pursue the case, the offender was able to be exempt from the criminal law.
"Of course, Lin Feng has indeed gone too far, so if your son requests anything to compensate for his injury, as long as it is something that my family's power can reach, I, Su Zhengyang, will not refuse."
Sure enough, it's about Lin Feng, ah.
Because of the system reward, it was clear that Su Zhengyang was the supporting character.
In order to save Lin Feng, Su Zhengyang actually came to have a negotiation with me?
Qin Tian was still a little surprised.
One must know that the Su family's power and status were not inferior to the Qin family.
Lin Feng just came to Qiuming City a few days ago, right?
And he already climbed the Su family tree?
Sure enough, the protagonist was undeniably powerful and had a background relationship that did not follow human logic at all.
"So it's because of this matter, huh?"
If it was Qin Tian a few days ago, he might have gone with the typical plot routine.
But now…
Qin Tian pretended to think for a moment before he spoke, "To be honest, Mr. Su,… I really didn't know that this kid would actually get involved with your Su family. In fact, in yesterday's incident, it was my son who was at fault first. If that kid, Lin Feng, hadn't hit so hard, I would have taken it as a lesson for Shijie. There was no need to arrest him at all."
"Then, Mr. Qin, you mean…"
Hearing Qin Tian saying these words, Su Zhengyang was even more surprised.
"Since you are the one who’s requesting a release, if I still don't agree, won't it be too unacceptable to you, Mr. Su?"
Qin Tian smiled, then casually waved his hand: "But as for compensation or anything like that, it will not be necessary. Just one thing, however, I do request from you. Let him come over and give me an apology, then this matter is considered to be over, Mr. Su, what do you think? An apology is not too much to ask for, right?"
"Not too much, not too much, this is the right thing to do."
Deep in his heart, Su Zhengyang was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed.
Originally, his plan was to first test Qin Tian's mood during the meal.
If Qin Tian could buy his request, then that would naturally be the best.
However, he knew by experience that this was impossible.
With his understanding of Qin Tian, Qin Tian would either request an impossible or highly provocative agreement from the Su family, or he would turn against the Su family to take revenge for his precious son.
There was no third option.
And these two options, no matter which one Qin Tian chose, would end the Su and Qin families’ relationship.
This was also the reason why he talked to Elder Su at home, he said that the Su family would have to offend the Qin family for saving Lin Feng.
But he never even considered that Qin Tian would agree.
And all he requested is an apology from Lin Feng?
Given such a good deal, of course, he agreed without a second of delay.
At this moment, Su Zhengyang did not expect that this matter was not as simple as he thought.
Not to mention, just getting Lin Feng to apologize to Qin Tian was almost an impossible task.
You know, the protagonists have their own protagonist halo.
Have you seen a novel protagonist apologizing to a villain?
Of course, no.
This was simply not possible.
If there really was such a wimpy protagonist, then this novel would definitely be dead before long.
