Chapter 1266: Chapter 1266: Are You Complinting ?
Staring at the spot where the woman disappeared, a cold sweat broke out all over Qin Shuheng’s body!
Was that woman a human or a ghost?
How could she just vanish like that, how did she do it?
Even in his fear, Qin Shuheng was filled with relief, lucky that this woman hadn’t intended to kill him; otherwise, he would probably have beco a corpse by now.
Thinking of this, Qin Shuheng couldn’t help but lower his head and look at the black porcelain bottle gripped in his hand, his expression flickering uncertainly.
Though he wanted the Qin family, he had no intention of letting Ye Xunhuan die. In his view, as long as he obtained the Qin family, it didn’t matter if Ye Xunhuan was alive.
But now it was no longer a matter of whether he wanted Ye Xunhuan dead or alive.
Soone wanted Ye Xunhuan dead, and that person saw through his intention at a glance. What’s more, that person was working with Yan Jinglin.
Now that person had seen through his intentions. If he didn’t follow their instructions, all his sches might co to nothing.
At that ti…
For a mont, Qin Shuheng’s heart was filled with struggle and conflict.
So people say heaven is on the left, hell is on the right. Now Qin Shuheng was completely wandering in hell, not knowing what choice to make.
As for the ergence of the darkness, Ye Xunhuan was completely unaware. After spending most of the day at the Fenghua Group, he and Qiu Ruoxi returned to the Qin family.
anwhile, Qin Rung remained at the Fenghua Group to handle company affairs.
On the way back from the Fenghua Group to the Qin family, Qiu Ruoxi appeared burdened with worries. Ye Xunhuan asked her several tis, but she kept saying it was nothing, showing no intention of revealing anything.
This filled Ye Xunhuan’s heart with confusion and curiosity; what on earth did Qin Rung tell Qiu Ruoxi?
What could make Qiu Ruoxi appear like this?
Since Qiu Ruoxi didn’t want to say, Ye Xunhuan knew that even if he continued to ask, he wouldn’t get an answer. So he suppressed his curiosity, planning to pry so words out of Qin Rung later.
After returning to the Qin family, Qin Pojun symbolically asked Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi about their visit to the Fenghua Group and then said nothing more.
As if for Qin Pojun, it didn’t matter to whom the Fenghua Group belonged.
The old man seed very calm and composed.
In response, Ye Xunhuan, as if he had expected it, was not surprised, remaining unusually calm.
Maybe because he had no friends in the capital, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi stayed at the Qin family and didn’t go out.
After dinner, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi chatted with Qin Pojun for a while before retiring to rest.
…
Early the next morning, not long after Ye Xunhuan had breakfast, Qin Shuheng, who had sohow found Ye Xunhuan’s phone number, called him!
Qin Shuheng first exchanged a few pleasantries with Ye Xunhuan, then suggested eting for a simple family dinner.
To this, Ye Xunhuan naturally could not refuse.
No matter what, Qin Shuheng was his uncle, a real blood relative. Regardless of his stance or hostility, the surface etiquette still had to be maintained appropriately.
Moreover, in Huaxia, it’s relatively rare for elders to invite younger ones for a al, especially soone like Qin Shuheng.
After hanging up the call, Ye Xunhuan said to Qiu Ruoxi, “Wife, we can dine out this noon!”
“Was it a call from your uncle?”
When Ye Xunhuan took the call, he didn’t avoid Qiu Ruoxi, so Qiu Ruoxi heard a bit of the conversation between Ye Xunhuan and Qin Shuheng.
Ye Xunhuan nodded: “That’s right, he wants to invite us to dinner!”
“The weasel paying respects to the hen, no good intentions!” Qiu Ruoxi said sarcastically, but she did not refuse to go with Ye Xunhuan to et Qin Shuheng.
To Qiu Ruoxi’s words, Ye Xunhuan didn’t have any rebuttal, or rather, he heartily agreed with her.
After all, Qin Shuheng had never liked him, even treated Ye Xunhuan as an enemy. Inviting Ye Xunhuan and her to dinner now, the whole thing seed fishy.
Around noon, after telling Qin Pojun, Ye Xunhuan took Qiu Ruoxi to Li Family Cuisine in the rear alley of Jianguon in Beijing, where Qin Shuheng planned to treat them.
There’s no such thing as a good eting, no such thing as a good banquet. Ye Xunhuan had to go, as there’s a saying, “missing out on an advantage makes you a fool.” So he would go regardless.
Moreover, it’s Li Family Cuisine!
It had been visited by the U.S. Treasury Secretary Rubin, British Pri Minister Major, and countless dostic celebrities had visited more than once.
This shows just how high-class Li Family Cuisine is.
In the north and south ends of Beijing’s Houhai, there are the two largest royal mansions of the Qing Dynasty, Chun Wang Fu and Gong Wang Fu.
To the east of Gong Wang Fu is an alley called Rear-Sheep Alley. Though the area is not large, it houses a famous restaurant known both dostically and abroad—Li Family Cuisine.
Initially, it served only one table per week, with no nu to order from. Even so, reservations were endless. Later, it extended to two tables a week, and eventually one table a day, showing just how difficult it was to dine there.
It’s fortunate Qin Shuheng was from the Qin family; otherwise, getting into Li Family Cuisine would require an advance reservation!
Qin Shuheng sat in a private room, holding a cup of fragrant tea, eyes half-closed, quietly waiting for Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi’s arrival.
Since the incident with Ye Xunhuan and the Lin family, Qin Shuheng had been continuously contemplating the future configuration of the Qin family!
Ordinary juniors couldn’t change the current balance of the Qin family, but Ye Xunhuan’s identity was different. He was the son of Qin Fenghuang, the real young master of Fenghua Group. His appearance was like a bombshell to the entire Qin family, completely disrupting all established interests and shattering the surface harmony of the Qin family!
Qin Shuheng had to seize the greatest benefit from this chaotic situation.
So after a night of conflict, Qin Shuheng finally compromised with the darkness and now invited Ye Xunhuan for a al.
When Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi arrived, led by the waiter to the private room, they imdiately saw the expressionless Qin Shuheng.
Although there was no expression on Qin Shuheng’s face, Ye Xunhuan’s face was full of smiles: “Uncle, it’s such a sha for you to personally treat your nephew to a al. It should be I, the younger one, treating you. I’m young and a bit insensible, please don’t mind , Uncle!”
Qin Shuheng didn’t speak. Instead, he looked Ye Xunhuan up and down repeatedly.
After a long while, Qin Shuheng slowly said: “Not bad, being Fenghuang’s son, you’ll surely be a big shot one day!”
Stunned by Qin Shuheng’s abrupt remark, Ye Xunhuan was taken aback: “Uncle, are you praising ?”
