Chapter 10
alone humming a tune.As soon as Qin Xi arrived at the office, Wang Meng tossed a thick stack of documents over to her: "Qin Xi, please make twenty copies of all this. I'll need them for my meeting lat...Chapter 10
The next morning, the rooftop of Sanhe Group.
Every Monday is the company's meeting, at which time all of Qin's direct descendants gather around the conference table.
"Qin Xi, I heard that your husband, the useless one who went missing five years ago, is back"
The man speaking was Qin Xi's cousin, Qin Fei. Seeing Qin Xi enter the conference room, he wore a smiling expression.
"He didn't come back, what does that have to do with you" Qin Xi frowned and retorted.
It has nothing to do with me, but the Qin family fell into decline because of the ugliness between you. Otherwise, the Qin family would now be among the top families in Jiangzhou.
Qin Fei wore a sinister expression and continued, "If it were any other woman, after such an incident, she would have long since lost face and been unable to live. I didn't expect that you would still have the face to give birth to a bastard child, which is simply a disgrace to the Qin family."
"Shut up!" Qin Xi stood up abruptly, her face contorted with anger.
You can say anything about her, but her daughter is off-limits. That's her Achilles' heel; you can't even mention it, let alone touch upon it.
All the direct descendants of the Qin family in the room, none of them stood up for Qin Xi. They all looked gleeful and eager to watch the drama unfold.
"The old man is here!"
Qin Fei was about to speak when suddenly footsteps sounded at the door. He gave Qin Xi a cold glance and stopped talking.
Then, a silver-haired elder of the Qin family entered the conference room and sat in the chairman's seat.
The Qin family also has many companies, but the Sanhe Group is the best-developed one. Because of this, four years ago after the Sanhe Group was brought back under the family by Mr. Qin, it became the family's main base.
Every time she sat here for a meeting, Qin Xi felt a twinge of pain in her heart. This was the industry she had built with her own hands, but now it belonged to the family. Even though she had countless grievances, everything was set in stone.
Although Mr. Qin was old, he showed no intention of stepping down and yielding to younger generations. Instead, he firmly held onto the position of head of the family.
He swept his gaze over the crowd and immediately spoke, “Last month, the Yuwen family of Yan City established a branch in Jiangzhou. For this period of time, they have been in the preparatory stage. I received the latest news that the branch is about to officially open in these few days. Countless prominent families are vying to cooperate with Yancyn Group, and our Qin family absolutely cannot fall behind. We can say that whether our Qin family can become a first-class family depends on whether we can secure cooperation with Yancyn Group.”
Hearing the old man's words, everyone was invigorated. Someone directly asked, "Grandpa, if we can secure a partnership with Yanchen Group, will there be any rewards"
The old man glanced at the speaker and sneered: "If anyone can secure the contract from Yanchen Group, they can become the chairman of Sanhe Group."
At these words, everyone was shocked. In order to secure a partnership with Yanci Group, the old man was even willing to use Sanhe Group as a reward.
Qin Xi bit her red lips tightly. The Sanhe Group already belonged to her, so wanting to get the cooperation of Yanchen Group was obviously difficult, otherwise, the old man wouldn't have used the position of chairman as a reward.
For a moment, all eyes were darting back and forth between Qin Xi and Qin Fei.
One is the most cherished eldest grandson of the old master, and the other is exceptionally talented. Now, these two are deeply beloved by the old master, but everyone present knows that the Sanhe Group truly belongs to Qin Xi.
Qin Fei, of course, also knew the importance of winning this cooperation. He stood up first and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I think that for cooperation, we must plan for the long term."
"Oh" the old man asked. "What are your thoughts"
Qin Fei said, "To be honest with grandpa, I had already started preparing when Yanzhen Group first established its Jiangzhou branch. It's just that the threshold of Yanzhen Group is very high, and I spent a lot of effort to establish connections, but it's still difficult to secure a cooperation."
"Xiao Fei did a good job. Although he hasn't secured the partnership yet, he has at least started taking action and made some connections. After the meeting ends, you go to finance and apply for one million dollars in working capital." The old man said generously.
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Qin Fei was overjoyed.
Others looked on with envy.
Qin Fei suddenly looked at Qin Xi with a meaningful glance and then said, "Grandpa, although I also really want to secure this cooperation, it's difficult for me to do it alone. After all, compared to the Yan Chen Group, the Qin family is just one of many small families. What makes them think we should cooperate with them"
"Since you say so, do you have any good ideas then" the old man asked.
Qin Fei smiled: "I got insider information that the Yanci Group will not choose some small families for this cooperation. Just on this point, we are no longer qualified to talk about it. So we can choose a family of similar scale to the Qin family to team up with."
"Xiao Fei, your proposal is very good. Continue," the old man said, growing more and more pleased with each word.
Qin Fei smiled: "Grandpa, Wang Jian, the young master of the Wang family, has been pursuing Xiaoxi. Wang Jian has made it clear that as long as Xiaoxi marries him, there will be no problem with the cooperation."
All eyes turned to Qin Xi. Qin Xi's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly said, "Grandfather, I'm already married. How can I marry someone else"
“Little Xi, everyone knows about you and that useless man. Right after your marriage, he disappeared for five years. There’s no love between the two of you. You would be better off marrying Wang Jian. At least he can help the family, he's far stronger than that good-for-nothing.” The old man said to Qin Xi.
Qin Xi clenched her red lips, her face full of determination as she shook her head and said, "Grandpa, this life, I belong to Yang Chen, and he is my only husband."
"Bang!"
The old man slapped the table, his face flushed with anger: "Five years ago, if it weren't for you and that scoundrel's scandal, the Qin family would have been among the top families. Do you intend to ruin the Qin family's future again in five years"
Qin Xi bit her red lips, clenched her fists tightly, and didn't even notice that her nails had pierced her palms. For at this moment, the pain in her heart was even greater.
The Qin family's current status is all thanks to the Sanhe Group. Not only does the old man not appreciate her contributions to the family, but he also blames her for the family failing to become a top power.
That settles it. After the meeting, I'll personally contact the head of the Wang family and discuss the marriage alliance.
The old man immediately made a decision, not considering at all whether Qin Xi wanted to agree.
"I'm still alive and well, but you want my wife to remarry Something she doesn't want to do. When did it become anyone else's business"
Just then, a cold and indifferent voice suddenly rang out, and then a familiar figure appeared in the conference room.
Amidst the astonishment of the Qin family's direct descendants, Yang Chen walked to Qin Xi's side and sat down. He looked at her with a gentle face: "As I said, from now on, I will not allow anyone to harm you." Xi suddenly asked.Yang Chen was taken aback, but he didn't try to hide it. He nodded slightly: "Xiaoyi is right. This puts our minds at ease.""Oh!" Qin Xi didn't say anything more, but she felt a lit...
