Only Qin Zhizha and Lu Weixi, along with Qin Zhisu remained calm, refraining from getting involved in the peopleâs scramble for favor.
Suddenly, it was time for the meal. Regardless of the tensions within the Qin family, they maintained decorum during meals. However, as soon as the meal ended and tea was served, the sharp disputes were inevitable.
At this point, no matter where Qin Zhiyou, Lu Weixi, or Qin Zhisu hid, the three of them were bound to be dragged out to face the heat. Take Yang Mogui, for instance, he was itching to start speaking, âI heard Wei Hui also boarded the ship? You really should have informed us about the maiden voyage, people outside have no clue.â
Lu Weixi, who has been targeted at her knees, nodded, her response was watertight, âI was physically unwell at that time, Zhiyou consideredately let me off the hook, but I wanted to surprise him, soâ¦â
Anyway, in front of Mrs. Yang and old Mr. Qin, getting closer to Qin Zhiyou wouldnât upset them.
Sure enough, Yang Mogui nodded, not forgetting to show concern for his âgood daughter-in-lawâ: âWei Hui, how were the tonics you had before?â
Thankfully, Qin Zhiyou had told her about the tonics beforehand, so, Lu Weixiâs response was well-prepared: âYour concern is appreciated, I have finished the medicine. Initially, I planned to get the medicine immediately after finishing it, but then the maiden voyage happened. Zhiyou and I decided that weâll go to the hospital for registration tomorrow.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Upon hearing that the son and daughter-in-law were well-prepared, Yang Mogui finally smiled: âYou must take care of yourself. Try to recuperate and give us a hefty grandson soon.â
Lu Weixi quickly nodded her head: âYes.â
Qin Zhiyou, who had initially draped his hand around her knee, unconsciously moved it to her waist. Since she had already flaunted their affection, he certainly couldnât upturn it.
On the other side, Qin Zhimei also brought up: âSpeaking of the surprise during the maiden voyage, the surprise was you, brother. We never anticipated that you were the renowned âSimon Whiteâ!â
Qin Zhizha also chimed in: âZhisu, since youâre back in the country, you havenât visited the company yet, have you? I just got back as well, how about we both go to the company together?â
The implication was all too clear, the underlying suggestion was a power division.
Qin Zhizha knew his worth and also realized that the old man didnât favor him. It shouldnât be Qin Zhiyou either. Pushing Qin Zhisu forth would be beneficial, at least both second and third branches are from the same grandmother and Qin Zhisu is a fair person, he could still get some benefits.
Speaking of his son, Qin Weijian also turned around. He had a triumphant smile on his face: âIndeed, Zhisu has not been idle overseas these five years, he even completed his PhD, gained a bit of fame. Now there are countless companies begging him for his designs. If he comes back to Hanhai, it will definitely add glory to the business.â
Thatâs right, in terms of fame, Qin Zhisu is no more than the Qin familyâs second son, even having a doctorate doesnât count for much. However, âSimon Whiteâ holds a grand reputation, at least his current work has had a significant impact, making a name in the field of architectural design.
Even though Qin Zhiyou had been managing Hanhai very smoothly, but given Qin Zhisuâs reputation, itâs hard to predict what the boardâs old foxes would choose.
The old Mr. Qin also nodded: âWe are indeed in need of a well-known architectural designer.â
As soon as Mr. Qin uttered these words, both second and third branches wore pleased expressions. While there was no change in Qin Zhiyouâs expression, Lu Weixi could already feel, the hand around her waist was involuntarily tightening..
