He Jian answered the call from Han Gaoping which stated that the matter was actually arranged by Master Qi. After hearing this, He Jian thought it was ridiculous. His father was exactly the same as in the last life; whenever there was a chance, he wanted to swallow up others, but the one finally declared bankruptcy was the Qi Family.
He Jian knew about himself. Right now, Qi Yueran was too young and had shortsighted vision, looking only for fast return. Outsiders seemed to think that he was young but experienced and looked capable, but in fact, how distress and helpless he was, only He Jian knew. It would be a “good opportunity” to join hands with Wu Family, so the young Qi Yueran would not let go of the opportunity to expand his wings.
He Jian didn’t talk to Qi Yueran anymore as it was useless to talk to him at this time. In the end, he left in a hurry and drove home.
In the middle of the trip, Han Gaoping called again. He hesitated before he said: “Third-shao, Elder He just called and he didn’t sound very happy. He wanted Third-shao to return home.”
He Jian fell into silent for a long time. He Family’s influence and contacts couldn’t be underestimated. Although Quanlin was a small city, it’s not difficult for Elder He to know anything. Elder He probably thought He Jian had done something absurd and deliberately summoned him back to teach him a lesson.
“I got it. I’ll be back in a few days.” After saying that, He Jian hung up.
When he arrived at the gate of Qi Villa, he saw a white car driving into the yard. As soon as the car stopped, the driver and bodyguards came down first, opened the back door and the several people helped a young man out. In addition, someone quickly took out a folding wheelchair from the trunk and helped the young man to sit on it.
Qi Yuexin took a sit and when he turned his head, he saw a black car outside the yard, so he beckoned the driver to drive the car into the garage and the bodyguards also retreated. Then he went to the outside of the yard in his wheelchair.
He Jian instinctively wanted to avoid Qi Yuexin, so when he saw him get off the car, he didn’t open his car door and wanted to wait for Qi Yuexin to enter the villa before he got off. He just didn’t think that the other person saw his car first and seemed to remember his car.
He Jian got off the car and Qi Yuexin also came near, smiling as he said, “Mister He is here. I thought the car is familiar as soon as I saw it. Sure enough.”
He Jian nodded and smiled at him. He was not in a good mood now. Facing Qi Yuexin, he had all kinds of feelings. His smile was very formal as he said, “Mister Qi just came back home?”
Qi Yuexin said: “Yes, thank you again for helping me find the doctor. Just now I went to have a check-up. The doctor said that although the situation is not optimistic as it has been too long, I should be fine to stand up properly after rehabilitation.”
""
“Then congratulation to Mister Qi.” He Jian said as he felt relieved.
“Are you looking for Xiao Ran? He’s in the company today and won’t be back until six or seven in the evening.” Qi Yuexin smiled as he asked.
“No, I want to talk to Qi-Lao[1] about something. But because it’s a little sudden, so I didn’t call Qi-lao in advance. I don’t know if it’s inconvenient or not, or if I’m bothering.” Although He Jian said it politely and even he ran over here without calling, it was just to avoid giving Master Qi a chance to decline.
Qi Yuexin said: “Mister He, please come in and talk. My Dad should be in.”
He Jian nodded. Qi Yuexin had just dismissed all the people around him and at this time, He Jian couldn’t let him swing the wheelchair by himself. He Jian went up to help him push, he said, “I’ll help you.”
“Thank you.” Qi Yuexin seemed very happy and smiled at him.
When they got to the door, the servant quickly opened it and announced, “Master, Mister He and Eldest Young Master are back.”
Master Qi was sitting on the first floor as he read the newspaper and was surprised when he heard that He Jian had come. He stood up to welcome him. Upon seeing He Jian personally pushing Qi Yuexin to come in, he smiled happily and said: “Sorry for troubling He Third-shao. Third-shao came here so suddenly, I wonder if there is something important.”
“There’s something,” He Jian said. “It’s about Xiao Ran’s engagement.”
“Is Xiao Ran engaged?” Qi Yuexin didn’t know this yet. He opened his eyes wide in surprise and looked at He Jian and then Master Qi.
There was no particular expression on Master Qi’s face, only that he said: “Xiao Xin, you’ve been out for a day, go upstairs first. He Third-shao, we also go upstairs to the study and talk slowly.”
Qi Yuexin was about to speak, but saying nothing and ultimately went upstairs.
He Jian said directly, “I heard Xiao Ran and Wu Family’s Wu Kai are going to get engaged? In the first place, this junior indeed shouldn’t interfere in other people’s family affairs, but we are just about to cooperate. Isn’t it inappropriate for such a thing to happen? This junior has a little doubt about the sincerity of Master Qi. The matter of wanting to cooperate shouldn’t be a joke, right?”
Not many people knew about Wu Kai’s proposing an engagement. Master Qi didn’t expect He Jian to know about it, he was surprised and said: “He Third-shao shouldn’t think much about it. Xiao Ran’s engagement with Wu Family is not bad for our cooperation, but good for it. Wu Kai agreed to unconditionally give up the development’s right of the project in the north of the city, he wouldn’t care about the land in the future, and he wouldn’t also withdraw the funds from earlier investment. Isn’t that a good thing?”
He Jian listened but he sneered without end internally, of course Wu Kai is coming as a white wolf with empty gloves[2]. It was still unknown whether the Wu Family would be in Wu Kai’s hand or not. Wu Kai’s words alone were useless regarding the project in the north of the city. His promises were all ambiguous.
“I’m afraid that Qi-lao has miscalculated this time.” He Jian started to laugh and then said: “At first, I didn’t want Qi-lao to worry about this junior, but now I can only tell you clearly. I had a little grudge with the Wu Family previously, and half of the reasons for this visit are this. If you betrothed Xiao Ran to Wu Kai, in the case that Wu Family breaks down later, it will hurt Xiao Ran.”
As soon as Master Qi heard that, he felt that it was not good. It turned out that the Wu Family had provoked He Jian. Otherwise, He Third-shao wouldn’t have come to Quanlin City to be interested in the north land, but he was interested in Wu Family’s property.
“Aiyah, that’s going to be a big misunderstanding,” Master Qi said with a tangled look. “I didn’t think there would be such a feud. But Wu Kai has been promised. If he goes out and yells that Qi Family doesn’t keep promises, then my Qi Family won’t be able to do business in the future.”
Qi Yueran had been in a bad mood all afternoon since his talk with He Jian. Driving home, he ran into Qi Yuexin in the yard. Qi Yuexin pulled him as he said, “When are you engaged to Wu Kai, Xiao Ran?”
Qi Yueran’s heart thumped and he felt caught. Apprehension flashed past his eyes and he said: “Ge, you heard nonsense.”
Qi Yuexin said: “Don’t lie to me. Mister He came to our house today. I heard what he said.”
Qi Yueran frowned, it turned out that He Jian ran over here. He felt very unhappy and said, “Ge, don’t listen to the nonsense of outsiders. Let me push you back in; it’s cool in the yard at night.”
When they entered the villa, Master Qi stopped Qi Yueran and asked him to go to his study upstairs. Qi Yueran knew it must be about He Jian’s coming this afternoon.
Master Qi said: “It seems that the cooperation with Wu Family is no good. I didn’t know that Wu Kai had offended He Jian, we can’t afford to be He Family’s rival, so the engagement must be cancelled.”
When Qi Yueran heard this, he felt a little schadenfreude. It turned out that Wu Kai offended He Jian, he said: “But…”
Master Qi raised his hand and stopped Qi Yueran from continuing. Instead, he said, “You don’t have to worry about this matter; I will make up another arrangement. My Qi Family’s reputation must not be damaged.”
Qi Yueran didn’t understand what Master Qi meant, but within two days, he saw several Quanlin’s gossip magazines reporting news about him.
Qi Family was a respectable household in Quanlin that the gossip magazines were keen on them. It was said that Qi Yueran, the youngest son of Qi Family, was about to be engaged to Wu Kai of Wu Family, but somehow Qi Yueran suddenly refused. It was revealed that the blue blood He Family’s third young master He Jian came all the way to Quanlin to pursue Qi Yueran. It was when Qi Yueran fell in love with He Jian did he refuse Wu Kai’s well meaning.
Qi Yueran was angry when he saw the report. The gossip magazine was very detailed. There were all causes and consequences, as if it was very true, there were many pictures beside it as evidences.
Qi Yueran and He Jian had the precedent of “date in the suburban” before, in which people found it unsurprising. Moreover, there was a picture on the paper where Qi Yueran and He Jian stood face to face with a big bouquet of roses on the front desk. The article wrote that He Family Third-shao He Jian made a high-profile confession by sending flowers to propose. Of course, the receptionist lady at the side had already been ps-ed[3], which made it seemed that was what truly happened.
As soon as Qi Yueran saw this picture, it suddenly dawned on him that Qi family’s company was tightly managed, it’s impossible for the paparazzi to ever get in. This photo was definitely not taken by paparazzi. If there was a possibility, it was taken by the surveillance camera on the first floor of the company building.
He Jian laughed when he saw the news. He had been in business circles for more than ten years, he only needed to have a look and knew that it’s the news that Mister Qi specially asked someone to do.
Master Qi knew that He family could not afford to be offended. If he allied with Wu Family through marriage, He Family would be offended. The result would not be worthwhile. But now, with some tricks to get some fake news, he would have a direct relationship with He Family. In addition, He Jian’s long-standing bad reputation made it possible for him to come here specially for the purpose of wooing and no one was surprised.
Qi Yueran had been frowning after he read the news. His old man’s chess piece move was very out of tune. This way of putting a bold face to drag the He family for the hype, in the case there was trouble, He Jian had no choice but to try. He stayed in the company all morning and drove out at noon. After hesitating for a while, he called He Jian.
He Jian received Qi Yueran’s phone call, who said that he would come to apologize. He couldn’t help but feel both ridiculous and angry and after thinking about it, he said: “I’ll send the address to you. It is a perfect time to have a good talk.”
