also astonished."Not only that, but the Yanci Group also said we breached the contract and want us to pay a sky-high penalty," Qin Fei added.Even Qin Lao Ye, at this time, was greatly astonished, his...Chapter 10

The next morning, on the top floor of Sanhe Group.

Every Monday is the company's weekly meeting, at which time all of Qin's direct descendants gather around the conference table.

"Qin Xi, I heard that your useless husband who went missing five years ago has come back"

The man speaking was Qin Xi's cousin, Qin Fei. Seeing Qin Xi enter the meeting 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 scandal between you two. Otherwise, the Qin family would have been among the top families in Jiangzhou now."

Qin Fei put on a strange and eerie expression, then continued, "If it were another woman, after such an incident, they would have no face to live anymore. I didn't expect that you would still have the face to give birth to a bastard child, simply a disgrace to the Qin family."

"Shut up!" Qin Xi stood up suddenly, her face full of anger.

You can say anything about her, but her daughter is off-limits. That's her Achilles' heel; you can't mention it or even touch upon it.

All the direct descendants of the Qin family in the room, not a single one stood up to speak for Qin Xi. They all looked on with schadenfreude, waiting to see the show unfold.

"Grandpa's here!"

Qin Fei was about to speak when suddenly footsteps sounded at the door. He gave Qin Xi a cold glance and remained silent.

Then, an elderly silver-haired man from the Qin family walked into the conference room and sat in the chairman's seat.

Under the Qin family, there are quite a few companies, but only Sanhe Group is the best-developed one. Therefore, four years ago after Sanhe Group was taken back by the old master Qin and integrated into the family, it became the family's headquarters.

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 if she had a thousand regrets, everything was set in stone.

Although Mr. Qin was old, he showed no signs of yielding power, but instead held onto the position of head of the family with a tight grip.

He swept his gaze over the crowd and then spoke, “Last month, the Yuwen family of Yancheng established a branch in Jiangzhou. Over this period, they have been in the preparatory phase. I received the latest news that the branch is going to officially open in these few days. Countless prominent families are vying for the opportunity to cooperate with Yanzhen Group. And our Qin family absolutely cannot fall behind. We can say that whether our Qin family can join the ranks of top-tier families depends on whether we can secure a partnership with Yanzhen Group.”

Hearing the grandfather's words, everyone was invigorated. Someone directly asked, "Grandfather, 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 with Yanchen Group, they will be able to sit in the position of the chairman of Sanhe Group.”

At these words, everyone was shocked. In order to secure a partnership with Yanchen Group, the old man was even willing to offer Sanhe Group as a reward.

Qin Xi bit her red lips tightly. The Sanhe Group already belonged to her. Wanting to get the cooperation of Yanchen Group was obviously difficult, otherwise, Grandpa wouldn't have used the position of chairman as a reward.

For a moment, all eyes were darting between Qin Xi and Qin Fei.

One is the most cherished eldest grandson of the old master, and the other is exceptionally capable. Now, these two are deeply favored by the old master, but everyone present knows in their hearts that the Sanhe Group inherently belongs to Qin Xi.

Qin Fei, of course, also knew the importance of this cooperation. He stood up first and said with a smile: "Grandfather, I think we need to carefully consider this cooperation in the long term."

"Oh" the old man asked. "What do you think"

Qin Fei said: "To be honest, Grandpa, I started preparing when the YANCHEN Group just established its Jiangzhou branch. It's just that, the threshold of the YANCHEN Group is very high. I spent a lot to build some connections, but it was still difficult to win the 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 find finance to apply for one million dollars in working capital." The old man said very generously.

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Qin Fei was overjoyed.

Others looked on with envy.

Qin Fei suddenly gave Qin Xi a meaningful look and then said, "Grandpa, although I also really want to win the cooperation, it's difficult relying on my own strength. After all, in front of the Yanchen Group, the Qin family is just one of many small families. Why would they cooperate with us"

Since you put it that way, do you have a good solution then" the old man asked.

Qin Fei smiled: "I got insider information that the Yanchen Group will not choose some small families for this cooperation. Just on this point, we are no longer eligible to talk about it. Therefore, we can choose a family of a similar scale to the Qin family to join forces."

"Xiao Fei, your suggestion is very good. Please continue," the old man said, becoming more and more satisfied as he listened.

Qin Fei smiled: "Grandpa, Wang Jian, the young master of the Wang family, has been pursuing Xiao Xi. Wang Jian has stated that as long as Xiao Xi marries him, there will be absolutely no problem with the cooperation."

All eyes were on Qin Xi. Qin Xi's face changed instantly, and she quickly said, "Grandpa, I'm already married. How can I marry someone else"

“Xiaoxi, everyone knows about you and that good-for-nothing. As soon as you got married, he disappeared for five years. There's no love between the two of you at all. You'd be better off marrying Wang Jian; at least he can help the family, unlike that useless man.” The old man said to Qin Xi.

Qin Xi bit her red lips tightly, her face full of determination. 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 with a resounding boom, his face contorted with rage. “Five years ago, if it weren't for your affair with that scoundrel, the Qin family would have already been among the top families. After five years, are you going to ruin the Qin family’s future again”

Qin Xi bit her red lips, clenching her fists so tightly that she didn't even notice her nails had pierced into her palm. For at this moment, the pain in her heart was more intense.

The Qin family's current status is entirely due to the Sanhe Group. Not only does the old man fail to appreciate her contributions to the family, but he also blames her for the family failing to reach the top tier of power.

"That's settled then. After the meeting, I'll personally contact the head of the Wang family and discuss the marriage."

The old man immediately made a decision, not considering whether Qin Xi wanted to agree or not.

"I'm still alive and well, yet you want my wife to remarry. She refuses to do it, so when did it become anyone else's business"

Just at that moment, a cold and indifferent voice suddenly rang out. Following that, a familiar figure appeared in the conference room.

Amongst the shock of the Qin family's direct descendants, Yang Chen walked to Qin Xi's side and sat down, looking at her with a gentle face: "I said, from now on, I will never allow anyone to harm you."d, his face filled with excitement."Is what you said true" Old Master Qin excitedly jumped out of bed.That man was also moved to tears, he took out a contract and handed it to Old Master Qin: "This is...
