Chapter 386 I won't allow myself to change my mind in the future.
"She's just a servant, it's up to you," Old Master Qi said casually. "Just make sure she's alright."
Everyone in the Qi family, from the housekeeper and servants to the cooks, gardeners, and cleaners, must undergo strict screening to ensure the safety of Old Master Qi.
These reviews were originally handled by Old Master Qi's butler, but in recent years, they have gradually been taken over by Cheng Jing, who works by Qi Huan's side.
"it is good."
Lost again.
"Judging a person by their chess moves, Qi Feifan is still far inferior to you." Old Master Qi threw down the chess piece and stood up. "Alright, as for the birthday gift you gave to Youli, since it was your decision, I will only take it as you having confidence in your relationship with her, so I will not interfere. I will say it again: barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will still choose you as the heir of the Qi family."
Qi Huan also dropped his chess piece.
The old man said this assuming nothing unexpected happens.
But if something unexpected happens, the position of heir might change.
……
After leaving the Qi family's old house, Qi Xiuyuan's resentment was hard to quell. He kicked a pebble at his feet, as if that would vent some of his dissatisfaction with Qi Huan.
"Damn it, it's disgusting to talk to someone like Qi Huan who's all bark and no bite!" Qi Xiuyuan cursed angrily. Just thinking about Qi Huan's handsome face made him feel nauseous.
"Brother, if you become the heir, we'll send Qi Huan to that perverted man to play with! Let him taste what it's like to be played with!" Qi Xiuyuan became more and more excited as he spoke, a sinister smile appearing on his face.
Qi Feifan did not respond to his brother's words immediately; he was still replaying the scene of playing chess with the old man in his mind.
He had studied this game of chess diligently for a long time, thinking he could play to a standstill with the old man, but who knew he would lose so quickly.
The disappointment on the old man's face made him feel extremely frustrated.
Why did we still lose when we already had a chance?
However, one can lose a game of chess, but one absolutely cannot lose the battle for the succession!
"Brother, can you hear me?" Qi Xiuyuan couldn't help but ask again when he saw that his older brother Qi Feifan was still ignoring him with a gloomy face.
Qi Feifan then came to his senses. He glanced at his younger brother and casually replied, "Okay, we'll do as you say and send him to that perverted man to play with."
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiuyuan was overjoyed. "Haha, just thinking about that scene is so satisfying!"
He could almost see Qi Huan being tortured until he had no dignity left as a man, and his displeasure vanished.
Qi Feifan sometimes truly envied his younger brother's blind confidence. He didn't have to do anything or think about anything; he just had to think about how he, as the eldest brother, would secure the position of heir and wait to enjoy the good life.
Regardless of whether Qi Huan's words today were a bluff or not, now that the plan has begun, there's no reason to stop!
I just hope that Qi Huan's younger brother and Uncle Ya can take action as soon as possible!
If he doesn't take action next month, he wouldn't mind having someone dig up Qi Huan's mother Cheng Xiran's grave and scatter her ashes to provoke this mute uncle!
……
Qi Huan returned to the house, took a shower, and then played a video call for Jiang Youli.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm browsing Weibo," Jiang Youli said.
Qi Huan asked, "Are you still watching the news about Old Madam Long being taken away by the police?"
Jiang Youli shook her head: "No, I'm looking at the news about Yu Linglong and Long Yuan breaking up."
After Yu Linglong posted a Weibo announcing the dissolution of her engagement with Long Yuan, she immediately became a trending topic. As a top-tier actress, she quickly attracted a large number of comments from netizens.
[My sister really values her reputation! She immediately called off the engagement!]
[Is this showing consideration for her reputation or kicking someone when they're down? She was after their status before, helping them get so many resources, and now that the Long family is in trouble, she immediately breaks off the engagement. Even I, a mere bystander, can't stand by and watch!]
[This is ridiculous! Linglong is the eldest daughter of Dafeng Entertainment! She's a rich heiress herself, why would she need resources from Longyuan? The marriage between the two families was purely business-related; there was no sentiment involved! Now that the Long family has collapsed, can't my Linglong even get out of there?!]
[Speaking of which, my sister is truly pitiful! Her father has an illegitimate child! And her fiancé's family is incredibly powerful!]
[Is it tragic? I think my sister is really lucky! Her father's illegitimate son got his comeuppance and died, and she saw through her fiancé's family's true colors before even getting married, escaping the fire in time!]
[That makes sense! Congratulations to my Linglong for escaping this hellhole in time!]
Overall, there are more positive reviews of Yu Linglong regarding her decision to break off her engagement with Long Yuan.
After all, the things the Long family has been exposed to have done are hard for the general public to accept.
"Oh?" Qi Huan said with interest, "You actually care about Long Yuan's love life?"
Jiang Youli's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. "If I said I cared about Yu Linglong, would you believe me?"
Her gaze met Qi Huan's, a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Qi Huan smiled and said, "When have I ever doubted you?"
He paused for a moment, then continued, "But I didn't know when you started contacting Yu Linglong?"
His curiosity was completely piqued.
Jiang Youli blinked and joked, "It's a secret between women."
She deliberately kept Qi Huan in suspense, making him even more curious.
Seeing this, Qi Huan didn't press further, but instead said thoughtfully, "So, part of the reason you're targeting Dafeng Entertainment is because of Yu Linglong? Is she trying to use you to get rid of Chairman Yu's illegitimate son, Yu Hongtu?"
Qi Huan is like that.
His mind was exceptionally sharp; he was able to deduce the general outline of the matter from just a few words from Jiang Youli.
Jiang Youli nodded. "Yes, I agreed to her cooperation, on the condition that she acquire Dafeng Entertainment's shares at a low price."
Her answer was concise and clear, without any concealment.
After listening, Qi Huan commented, "This deal is definitely worthwhile. After all, whether you cooperate with Yu Linglong or not, you still have to deal with Dafeng Entertainment."
Jiang Youli smiled and said, "However, my doing a favor for Yu Linglong is indeed a great kindness, after all, I helped her avenge her mother."
After we finished talking about our own things, she asked with great interest, "Anything going on your end?"
Qi Huan said, "The gift I gave you at my birthday party, Qi Feifan came here tonight as soon as he smelled it. He said a few provocative things to Grandpa but didn't get anything out of it and left in a sorry state."
Jiang Youli scoffed, "You're really asking for trouble... But aren't you afraid Grandpa Qi will mind?"
Qi Huan said thoughtfully, "If my grandfather really minds this gift I gave you, perhaps I should reconsider whether my father's plan to switch my brother was indeed tacitly approved by my grandfather."
Jiang Youli looked somewhat surprised. "So you really sent me this gift on purpose to test your grandfather?"
Qi Huan immediately said seriously, "No."
He continued, "The gift I gave you was from the bottom of my heart."
"I can't guarantee that I won't change my mind in the future, but if I do change my mind and hurt you, then let's nip that possibility in the bud now."
"If I ever change my mind in the future, or even try to kill you to take back my family property, I believe you wouldn't give me that chance if you were capable of it."
