“Okay.” Chen Meng’er nodded at Qu Haoqiang, “Haoqiang, don’t worry. Although I can’t wait for your mother to disappear from this world, I will definitely do what I promised you.” Chen Meng’er had given Qu Haoqiang some peace of mind.

With Chen Meng’er’s words, Qu Haoqiang felt a weight lifted off his heart.

He thanked Chen Meng’er again and comforted his mother, before leaving the Green Gang.

* * *

After Qu Haoqiang left, Chen Meng’er did not stay any longer. She ordered her subordinates to help Han Ying find a place to stay and then went to the front hall to look for her two grandfathers. Chen Meng’er found an excuse to come out. If she was out for too long, Elder Qu would get curious.

However, Elder Qu did not stay in the Green Gang for long before he went back. The Qu family had been busy recently. He had taken a break from his busy schedule and came to the Green Gang to relax.

When he left, Elder Qu looked at Chen Meng’er, with a serious expression, he said, “Meng’er, Grandpa is really old. I am unable to do many things. Come home and help me, please.” A long time ago, Elder Qu had proposed that Chen Meng’er take over the Qu family. But Chen Meng’er rejected him.

This time, it could be considered as bringing up the old matter again.

“Grandpa, don’t mention this matter anymore. I will not agree. There are so many others in the family. There are many people who will help you take over,” Chen Meng’er smiled and replied. Chen Meng’er really did not want to interfere in the Qu family’s matters. Alas, she had no choice but to interfere in the Qu family’s matters these few times.

And she had never thought about the Qu family’s estate. There were so many people who did not like her. If she really took over the Qu family, who knew how those people would target her?

“Those cousins of yours are not suitable candidates. If they were suitable, I would not keep asking you,” Elder Qu said and sighed. “Lass, to tell you the truth, other than you, I am worried about handing the Qu family over to anyone else. I am afraid that the Qu family will go downhill in their hands.”Elder Qu often suffered from insomnia. Because of this matter, his hair had turned much whiter.

His daughters-in-law all thought that he favored Chen Meng’er and that was why he thought of handing the Qu family over to Chen Meng’er. They were all wrong. It was true that he favored Chen Meng’er, the only granddaughter that he had managed to find with great difficulty. However, he insisted on handing the Qu family over to Chen Meng’er because of Chen Meng’er’s ability.

He clearly knew that only Chen Meng’er could bring the Qu family to another level.

“Grandpa, my brother and the others are all very outstanding. It’s just that you have to spend some effort to nurture them for them to succeed.” Chen Meng’er really did not want to take over the Qu family.

“It can only be like this. Meng’er, I’ll go back first. There are still a lot of things waiting for me to handle at home. If you’re free, come and visit me at the Qu family.”

Chen Meng’er looked at the slightly tired Elder Qu, and she could not bear it. If she did not know that the Qu family was a hot iron that she could not touch, she would have opened her mouth to agree to Elder Qu. “Yes, Grandpa, I will. Grandpa, you should also take care of your health.” Chen Meng’er decided to help her grandfather cultivate the Qu family’s young men so that she could easily convince her grandfather as soon as possible.

Chen Meng’er sent Elder Qu away and returned to the front hall. Elder Liu was still playing chess there.

“Grandpa,” Chen Meng’er called out.

“You sent off your other grandfather?” Elder Liu put down a black rook, raised his head, and said to Chen Meng’er with a smile, “Sit, accompany your grandfather. Let’s play a game. You haven’t played chess with me for a long time.”

“If you didn’t throw everything to me, would I be so busy that I wouldn’t have time to play chess with you?” Chen Meng’er rolled her eyes at Elder Liu very impolitely. Then, she sat down opposite Elder Liu.

“Haha, it seems that you’ve been tired and angry recently. Why? Did your other grandfather mention to you again that he wants you to take over the Qu family’s matters?”

“Yes, but I really don’t want to get involved in the Qu family’s affairs. I don’t want to make everyone think that I went back to the Qu family just to seize the Qu family’s assets.”

“Haha. Only those short-sighted people from the Qu family would think so. They don’t know what they lost in the end.” Elder Liu’s laughter was very dry. Back then, when he handed the Green Gang and the Liu family over to Chen Meng’er, many people were waiting to watch a good show.

When the Green Gang and the Liu family went to Chen Meng’er, everyone in the Liu family had opposed it. If it weren’t for him, the Liu family would have been in an uproar long ago. Just like that, the people from the Liu family often came to him and whispered in his ear.

And now? Who would say anything? No one said anything anymore.

Chen Meng’er used her own strength to shut everyone up. Under her hands, the Green Gang’s power had expanded by leaps and bounds. The Liu family had also jumped from a third-rate family in the capital to one of the best families in the capital.

The people who opposed the Liu family before now accepted Chen Meng’er, and they were as respectful as they could be.

Elder Liu was thinking about something. As soon as he put his piece down, Chen Meng’er said, “Grandpa, you’ve lost.”

Elder Liu came back to his senses and looked carefully. He jumped up immediately. “No! I put it there by mistake!” As he said that, Elder Liu reached out his hand and picked up the black rook he had just put down. He changed its spot and put it down. “Ah, I meant to put it there. I’m old now, my eyesight is not as good as it used to be.”
