Lu Qing’s gaze darkened, and he quickly said:
"Miaomiao, you don’t need to get involved in this matter. I’ll handle it."
Qin Miaomiao looked up, her eyes fixed firmly on him:
"Husband, the one in trouble is my Ninth Uncle, my adoptive father. My name has been entered into the family register; he is my father! If something happens to him, as his daughter, I must intervene."
"How are you going to intervene? Do you know the assassin organization’s stronghold? Do you know how to negotiate with them? Do you know what price must be paid to save Xiao Chen and Ninth Uncle?"
"So, you also believe Ninth Uncle was taken by their people?"
Lu Qing’s expression shifted slightly and then he said, "Miaomiao, are you trying to get information out of me?"
"Those people still have some scruples about Ninth Uncle’s status, so they haven’t been ruthless. However, that group of idiots from the Su Family, seeing Ninth Uncle captured, will likely stir up trouble. I’ll suppress that. As for the assassin organization, could I trouble you to negotiate with them for now?"
Being a woman, they might not even take her seriously.
Lu Qing actually didn’t want her involved in this matter at all. But now, it seemed that not only was the assassin organization difficult to deal with, but the Su Family’s side would be challenging to manage as well.
Sure enough, the next day, Qin Miaomiao was invited to the Su Family’s ancestral hall.
She wasted no time and directly brought Little Sixth, Little Seventh, Little Fourth, and Little Second along with her to the meeting.
As soon as she entered the Su Family ancestral hall, she heard someone shouting:
"An outsider, now becoming Mr. Jiu’s heir, what’s the meaning of this? Mr. Jiu is missing, and he’s likely dead. Are we really going to let someone become the head of our family? I’m the first to disagree!"
"Exactly, what is she? She’s just a little girl who hasn’t even weaned yet! How did she get so many things?"
"Just kick her out! Saves us the trouble of looking at her!"
"Right, right, kick her out! Matters concerning the Su Family should only be handled by Su Family members!"
Qin Miaomiao walked in slowly. Everyone stared at her as she entered. She narrowed her eyes slightly, cast a fleeting glance around the room, and sat down in the top seat, speaking flatly:
"I heard you want to kick me out?"
"Get down right now! That seat belongs to the head of the family. How dare you sit there!"
Qin Miaomiao raised her eyes, glancing at him coldly, and said calmly:
"According to the Su Family’s rules, how should those who dare question the Family Head be dealt with?"
Little Sixth and Little Seventh exchanged glances. Oh no, is Young Madam about to drop a bombshell? Her aura has completely changed!
But they had no idea what the family rules were. They had only come along to protect the Young Madam, right?
Little Fourth and Little Second exchanged glances as well. Could it be...
A kill? ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
Could it be that they’d have to kill as an example right in front of everyone?
Screw it, they decided to go for it. Just as the two were about to make a move, they saw the man who had just spoken suddenly get kicked and sent flying!
A figure dressed in a black Tang suit stood there. Little Second, Little Fourth, Little Sixth, and Little Seventh froze in shock. When had he arrived? How had they failed to notice him?
All they heard was him speaking in a low voice:
Qin Miaomiao’s eyes brightened slightly as she studied him deeply, then turned her gaze to scan the room. She spoke calmly:
"Now, does anyone else have objections?"
Someone else refused to back down and started yelling again:
"You’re just relying on the people under your control, that’s why you dare to act so arrogantly!"
Qin Miaomiao smirked: "Yes, and even if I am acting arrogantly, so what? My adoptive father has already granted me this authority. He is only temporarily missing. For now, the Su Family is under my command!"
