Qin Feng entered the room with a beam. He picked up an apple and took a bite while sitting by the bed. “What are you saying? I clearly had a happy conversation with Father. I said I will surpass him and marry one hundred eighty wives to pay filial respects to him!”
Mother Qin and Elder Brother Qin were taken aback and utterly speechless.
After a while, Mother Qin sighed and said, “Your father is too greedy and can even think of such shameless ideas for the sake of the Qin family’s assets. Did he tell you to pursue Miss Si Si again just now? Miss Si Si is so outstanding, and I heard that people are pursuing her recently and that she is quite close to one guy. Your father is very anxious and wishes you can pursue her back immediately!”
A trace of sarcasm flashed across Qin Feng’s eyes.
“Miss Si Si is so outstanding, and there have always been many men pursuing her. Since her teenage years, there have already been people pursuing her. What’s so strange about it?”
The Qin family had developed massively in recent times, and Qin Zhiyuan was renowned in the business world. Qin Si was meticulously raised by Qin Zhiyuan and had been very outstanding since young. Such a lady would definitely be adored by many men.
Mother Qin sighed and remained silent.
Qin Feng pursed his lips. “Our father is crazy over money. He doesn’t realize that given Uncle Qin’s intellect and his love for Miss Si Si, would he tolerate others scheming against his daughter like this?
“If not for you, Mother, Uncle Qin would definitely teach him a lesson.”
Mother Qin used to be from a pretty good family back then, and her ancestors and the Jiang family had friendly relations. Although Qin Zhiyuan’s last name was Qin, he grew up in the Jiang family from a young age.
Old Master Qin could be said to be the live-in son-in-law of the Jiang family. However, he was capable, had always been very close to Jiang Yiru and treated her wholeheartedly.
Thus, Qin Zhiyuan could be said to be the successor of the Jiang family.
Qin Zhiyuan encountered troubles overseas too, but he happened to meet Mother Qin who helped him.
It was not any great help and did not require any trouble. After all, Mother Qin was not considered very capable, and the circumstances then were extremely complicated. How great of a help could she offer?
However, Qin Zhiyuan had always remembered her kindness and showed them extra care throughout these years.
This care made Father Qin increasingly feel that this kindness was extremely important, and gradually, his greedy nature was revealed.
Mother Qin sighed once again. “He is already obsessed. In the past, Miss Si Si was still young, and even though she does not lack pursuers, she had never bothered with them. Now that Si Si has grown up and is beginning to understand love, it’s time for her to date. With only the slightest movement, your father would become very anxious. He seems to already treat Miss Si Si as his own daughter-in-law.”
Elder Brother Qin suddenly said, “Feng, you must be more careful these days. Our father is already obsessed. If Miss Si Si really dates someone, who knows what our father will do? He can resort to any means in order to obtain the Qin family’s assets.
“He’s always believed that due to Mother’s kindness to the Qin family, Uncle Qin treats us differently and gives us extra care. If he is driven to desperation and uses you to scheme against Miss Si Si, everything will be over. He will definitely harm Miss Si Si.”
Qin Feng’s eyes widened. “He… wouldn’t go to that extent, would he?”
Elder Brother Qin shook his head. “I think it isn’t impossible. Uncle Qin takes great care of us, and we are very grateful to him. But if our father feels that Uncle Qin will forgive us regardless of what we do, we will be in trouble!”
