Chapter 375: Chapter 375: Skin Crafting
Mrs. Qin’s face turned pale as Xuan Pei’s words hit her.
She was already furious that Su Jin and Wei Xin had caused such a commotion, and now her son was missing. This situation was spiraling out of control fast.
“I assure you, Xuan Pei,” Mrs. Qin said through gritted teeth,
“Qin Feng didn’t vanish because of the engagement. There must be some other explanation.”
Xuan Pei’s eyes narrowed, and he crossed his arms, clearly not buying her excuse.
“Other explanation? Your son just magically disappears during the engagement discussion! What kind of game are you playing, Mrs. Qin?”
Xuan Jin sniffled, wiping away tears as she glared at Mrs. Qin. “This is so humiliating! How could Qin Feng just run away like this? He doesn’t want to marry me, does he?”
Mrs. Qin clenched her fists, her thoughts racing. She needed to find Qin Feng—fast. This situation couldn’t get any worse, and Xuan Pei’s patience was clearly running thin.
“I’ll have my men search for him immediately,” Mrs. Qin said, her voice tight.
“This isn’t about your daughter, Xuan Pei. There’s something else going on, I promise you.”
But Xuan Pei wasn’t satisfied. His face darkened even more, and he took a step closer to Mrs. Qin.
“Don’t bother trying to smooth things over with pretty words. If I find out this is some kind of trick, Mrs. Qin, there will be consequences. Serious consequences.”
Mrs. Qin’s heart pounded in her chest, but she forced herself to stay calm.
She gave a curt nod and quickly called for her assistant.
“Find Qin Feng. Now. Check every corner of the house, and make sure he’s not playing some kind of prank.”
As the assistant hurried off, Mrs. Qin turned back to Xuan Pei, forcing a tight smile.
“We’ll find him, I guarantee it. Please, Xuan Pei, be patient for just a little longer.”
Xuan Pei didn’t respond, but the cold look in his eyes said enough.
Minutes passed, and the tension in the room grew thicker. Mrs. Qin’s assistant finally rushed back, out of breath and pale.
“Madam Qin… we… we can’t find him anywhere! It’s like he’s completely vanished!”
Mrs. Qin’s stomach dropped. How was this possible?
“Keep searching!” she snapped. “Don’t come back until you find him!”
Xuan Pei let out a frustrated huff and turned to leave, but not before throwing a final glare over his shoulder.
“You better pray this gets sorted out, Mrs. Qin,” he warned. “Or else, our families are done.”
After he left, Mrs. Qin slumped on the chair, despair was written on her face.
Qin Liang looked at Mrs. Qin’s despairing expression and said in a cautious voice,
“Mom, I have a solution…”
Mrs. Qin suddenly remembered Qin Liang and her expression darkened,
“It was because of you! Because of you opening the door! If you hadn’t Xuan Jin would have been done by right now.”
Qin Liang flinched at his mother’s words, guilt washing over him. He looked down at the floor, his voice trembling.

“I… I’m sorry, Mom. I didn’t mean to mess things up. I just thought—”
“Thought?!” Mrs. Qin snapped, cutting him off.
Her eyes were burning with anger as she stood up from her chair, towering over him.
“Do you even realize what you’ve done? If Xuan Pei pulls out of this engagement, our family is finished! And now, your brother has vanished! How are you going to fix this, huh?!”
“I… I know, Mom,” Qin Liang mumbled, his voice barely above a whisper. “But I really think I can help.”
Mrs. Qin crossed her arms, glaring at him skeptically.
“Oh? And how exactly do you plan on helping, Qin Liang? What brilliant idea do you have that’s going to make all of this disappear?”
Qin Liang hesitated, then took a deep breath.
“Why don’t we steal Qin Feng’s face? Xuan Jin doesn’t like how capable Qin Feng is, she is just obsessed with his face. I recently came in contact with a skin crafter.
He can take away Qin Feng’s face and fix it on my face. I also awakened the thunder superpower. I can make excuses for the fire superpower saying I lost it or something.
Once I become Qin Feng, you can just discard Big Brother. Even if he wants to find Su Jiyai, he has nothing to do with us.”
“And you think your brother will agree?” Mrs. Qin asked coldly.
Qin Liang’s eyes brightened. His mother didn’t reject the proposal…it means, there are chances of negotiations!
“I… I don’t know yet, but maybe we don’t have to ask him. The skin crafter, he said… he said it can be done without the person’s permission. We could… we could just take it while he’s unconscious.”
Mrs. Qin’s eyes narrowed, considering his words.
“You want to betray your own brother like that? Is this what it’s come to?”
Qin Liang swallowed hard.
“I’m not betraying him, Mom. It’s for the family. If Qin Feng is gone, everything falls apart. But if I become him, I can protect our family. Xuan Jin won’t even know the difference. It’ll be like nothing ever happened.”
For a moment, Mrs. Qin stayed silent, weighing the idea in her mind.
Then, she sighed heavily, rubbing her temples again.
“Fine. But listen carefully, Qin Liang. If you’re going to do this, you better do it right. If something goes wrong and Xuan Pei finds out, we’re all doomed. Do you understand?”
Qin Liang nodded eagerly. “I understand, Mom! I won’t mess this up, I promise.”
“Good.” Mrs. Qin’s voice was cold and sharp.
“Then go and find your brother. Make sure he doesn’t suspect anything. We’ll need to act fast before Xuan Pei starts asking more questions.”
Qin Liang smiled nervously, relieved that his mother agreed with his plan.
He hurried out of the room and asked his subordinate to spread the news that Su Jiyai’s body was in the lake near the old warehouse, 10 km away from Gate 19.
