《Forced To Marry The Richest Man: The Real Rich Daugther Is Sensual And Wild》 Chapter 1 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Jinxing, listen to me. I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. I didn¡¯t know¡­ Ah!¡± Zhao Jinxing was stunned. She stared blankly at Zhao Jinxiu, who was rolling down the stairs. Before she could react, she heard an angry roar, ¡°Zhao Jinxing, what are you doing?¡± Her father, Zhao Hong, came in anxiously and quickly hugged Zhao Jinxiu in his arms. At the same time, he glared at Zhao jinxing upstairs. He said, ¡°She¡¯s your sister. How could you push her down the stairs? You¡¯re too vicious!¡± Vicious? Zhao Jinxing sneered. From the moment her father entered the door, he had convicted her without even asking. Zhao Jinxing was about to refute, but Zhao Jinxiu cried miserably, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m in so much pain. I think my arms are broken. Dad, save me!¡± When Zhao Hong heard this, he felt terribly sorry for Jinxiu. He couldn¡¯t bother to teach Zhao Jinxing a lesson. Carrying Zhao Jinxiu in his arms, he hurriedly called the bodyguard to send them to the hospital. Zhao Jinxing watched all this with cold eyes. Not long after, she took out her phone and sent a message, ¡°Please investigate Zhao Jinxiu, find out everything about her.¡± Immediately after, she took the car keys and followed him to the hospital. She wanted to see what tricks Zhao Jinxiu was up to. In the hospital. Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s right hand was fractured. Zhao Hong immediately got a luxurious VIP ward for her. Before Zhao Jinxing entered the door, she could already hear the crying inside. ¡°No, Dad, don¡¯t blame Jinxing. It¡¯s all my fault.¡± Zhao Jinxiu hugged Zhao Hong, sobbing pitifully as she said, ¡°It¡¯s my fault. I shouldn¡¯t have argued with Jinxing. If I hadn¡¯t made her angry, she wouldn¡¯t have pushed me¡­ It¡¯s all my fault, it¡¯s all my¡­¡± ¡°Stop pleading for her. I think she¡¯s been spoiled by her grandfather since young. She doesn¡¯t even have sisterly love. She is reckless!¡± Zhao Hong said angrily. ¡°Father, when grandfather was alive, you didn¡¯t say that. Now that grandfather is gone for less than a month, you¡¯ve changed. Who is the reckless one? You don¡¯t even respect the elderly!¡± Zhao Jinxing pushed the door open and looked coldly at Zhao Hong. He was holding someone else¡¯s daughter in his arms now. Zhao Jinxing loved her grandfather, Zhuang Zhenting the most. She wouldn¡¯t allow anyone to talk bad about him. ¡°You b*stard, how dare you talk to me like that?¡± Zhao Hong had just calmed down, but he got angry again. He was about to beat Zhao Jinxing when Chen Ping stopped him hastily. ¡°Zhao Hong, what are you doing? How can you beat your own child?¡± Zhao Hong huffed in rage and dropped his arm. Chen Ping stepped forward and looked gently at Zhao Jinxing. ¡°Jinxing! Auntie knows what¡¯s happening. It¡¯s your sister¡¯s fault this time. Let me apologize on her behalf. Please, don¡¯t be mad at her, okay?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry. My mother only gave birth to me. I don¡¯t have an elder sister,¡± Zhao Jinxing turned a cold face without bothering about Chen Ping. When Chen Ping heard this, her eyes turned red with tears rolling. ¡°If you don¡¯t like both of us, I won¡¯t force you. I¡­ I¡¯ll go and pack up later. Jinxiu will leave with me tomorrow.¡± With that, Chen Ping went to the bed and hugged Zhao Jinxiu. The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. Zhao Hong felt his heart aching when he watched this scene. He quickly ran over to hug and comfort them. The happy and harmonious family of three deeply stung Zhao Jinxing. ¡°Chen Ping, you don¡¯t have to leave. A little girl like her can¡¯t make decisions in this house. You can stay here, nobody will dare to chase you away!¡± Chapter 2 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Come with me!¡± Zhao Hong was worried that Zhao Jinxing would disturb Zhao Jinxiu in the ward. Yet, he didn¡¯t want to argue with her in the hospital. Someone might post it online and embarrass him. Thus, he grabbed Zhao Jinxing and took her to the Eight Treasure Cemetery in the suburbs. After getting out of the car, Zhao Hong dragged her to Zhuang Zhenting¡¯s grave. He pointed at the kind-looking portrait on the tombstone and said righteously, ¡°Zhao Jinxing, what did you promise your grandfather before he passed away? Auntie Chen took care of your grandfather for ten years without any complaints. Now that her family is in trouble, what¡¯s wrong with us helping her? Your grandfather agreed to all of this. How could you bully Jinxiu now?¡± ¡°Hmph! So much for taking care of her that you married her and made her daughter your own. I can¡¯t get how you¡¯re taking care of her now,¡± Zhao Jinxing said sarcastically. Zhao Hong didn¡¯t mind. ¡°Yes, I know it¡¯s a bit difficult for you to accept them.¡± As he spoke, he let out a faint sigh, ¡°Jinxing, your mother has been away for ten years. Because of you, I¡¯ve never thought of starting a family again. Now that you¡¯ve grown up and I¡¯m old, I only need someone to talk to. Can¡¯t you¡­ can¡¯t you understand me?¡± ¡°Besides, Jinxiu has been staying with us since young. She has been studying and playing with you. Aren¡¯t both of you good friends? Now that you¡¯ve become sisters, you can support each other next time. Isn¡¯t that good?¡± Good friends? Zhao Jinxing sneered. Since young, Zhao Jinxiu had been trying to snatch whatever Zhao Jinxing liked. If Zhao Jinxiu couldn¡¯t get it, she would play the victim and try to guilt-trip Zhao Jinxing. She would rant about how pity she was to grow up without a father. Then, she made Zhao Jinxing feel bad for not sharing with her. Zhao Jinxing shared snacks, toys, and jewelry with her. That was fine. But now, Zhao Jinxiu even wanted to snatch away her father. Zhao Jinxing couldn¡¯t tolerate it. Moreover! ¡°How did Zhao Jinxiu get the shares of Zhenting Group?¡± Zhao Hong was instantly stunned and felt guilty, but he calmed down right after. He cleared his throat and said, ¡°I transferred these shares to her. I know you will be angry, but I have my reasons for doing so.¡± Zhao Jinxing raised her eyebrows, waiting for him to give that reason. ¡°Back then, the capital chain of the Zhenting Group was tight. To make sure things run smoothly, your grandfather arranged a marriage for you. He is the young master of Huo Family from Cloud Breaking Group. Rumor has it that he met a car accident a few years ago. His face was disfigured, and his body¡­ he got some disabilities. Grandfather felt sorry for you, so he agreed to let Jinxiu marry him instead. So, we will give her some compensation.¡± Zhao Jinxing narrowed her eyes. This was something new to her. That explained why did Zhao Jinxiu fall from the stairs and frame her. Zhao Jinxiu first tried to get the group shares, then she injured herself so that she wouldn¡¯t sacrifice her marriage. What a good plan! As expected, Zhao Hong said, ¡°The Huo Family sent a matchmaker three months ago. They are about to get engaged next week, but you made Jinxiu¡­ Sigh, I mean, you shall replace Jinxiu to attend the engagement ceremony next week. When she recovers, we can explain it to the Huo Family. We can¡¯t embarrass the Zhenting Group.¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s last bit of trust in her father was completely gone. Would the Huo Family allow them to change the bride again then? All in all, he just wanted to sacrifice Zhao Jinxing¡¯s happiness to help Zhao Jinxiu. ¡°What if I say no?¡± Chapter 3 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Hong seemed to have expected that from Zhao Jinxing. He replied, ¡°Sigh! Jinxing, business is not that good right now. We are collaborating with the Huo Family on several projects. If they get angry with us and withdraw the capital, our group will be finished. The Zhenting Group is your grandfather¡¯s hard work throughout his life. Would you want to see it getting ruined?¡± Zhao Hong knew Zhao Jinxing loved Zhuang Zhenting very much. He was confident that Zhao Jinxing would agree by saying so. ¡°Take your time and think about what I¡¯ve said. There¡¯s a dinner party at the Huo¡¯s place tomorrow. Remember to be there.¡± With that, Zhao Hong patted Zhao Jinxing¡¯s shoulder and left without looking back. ¡°Buzz¡­¡± Her phone vibrated. Zhao Jinxing took it out and opened the message. ¡°Zhao Jinxiu, born on August 03, 2001. Her father is Zhao Hong, while her mother is Chen Ping.¡± It turned out that Zhao Hong didn¡¯t only want to find a companion. It was nothing more than making his mistress public. More ironically, Zhao Jinxiu was two months older than Zhao Jinxing. Long before Zhao Jinxing¡¯s mother became pregnant, Zhao Hong had already cheated on her! He indeed disguised himself well over these years! Immediately after that, Zhao Jinxing received a few more messages. Previously, she asked Uncle Li to investigate the assets under her name. Uncle Li had yet to come back and report to her. When grandfather passed away, Zhao Jinxing was heartbroken. She asked Zhao Hong to handle the funeral and the inheritance. Out of her expectations, Zhao Hong used this opportunity to transfer all Zhuang Zhenting¡¯s inheritance to the management trust. Zhao Jinxing had to get married before she could get the inheritance. The conditions for Zhao Jinxing¡¯s future husband and her marriage ceremony were listed out in strict details too. On top of that, Zhao Hong stated in the entrustment that Zhao Jinxing had to be a filial guardian for Zhuang Zhenting for three years if she failed to get married within a month. Three years¡­ By that time, the Zhenting Group might have been taken over by the Zhao Family. Even if she inherited it, she would only be an empty shell. There were only two days left until the one-month deadline. Zhao Hong revealed his cards now and informed her about the Huo Family¡¯s dinner party. It was obvious that he wanted her to marry the Huo Family! Her biological father forced her into desperation without giving her a chance to fight back! Zhao Jinxing was so angry that her whole body was trembling. She could not help but throw out her phone! The afternoon sun shone on her back with a warm spring breeze. It was supposed to be a warm day, but Zhao Jinxing only felt chills over her body. She stared at the tombstone in front of her in silence. The old man¡¯s amiable face was printed on it. She took a deep breath and tried hard to hold back the tears in her eyes. The Zhenting Group belonged to the Zhuang Family. She would do everything to protect it. It was just a marriage! Even if the young master Huo was in a vegetative state, she would still marry him! She wanted that adulterous couple to pay the price for their shameless acts! Zhao Jinxing spent a while searching for her phone. Finally, she found her broken phone in front of a tombstone in the back row. She picked it up silently and then looked up. She had accidentally scratched the photo on the tombstone just now. Although it was an unintentional mistake, Zhao Jinxing felt a little guilty. She sincerely bowed to the tombstone. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, stranger granny. I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. Hope you won¡¯t mind.¡± There were many weeds growing around the tombstone and not many offerings in front of it. Perhaps, no one came to pay their respects for some time, so the caretaker didn¡¯t bother to clean it. Zhao Jinxing squatted and pulled out all the weeds around the tomb. She took out a handkerchief and wiped the dust off the photo. ¡°Sorry to trouble you.¡± Chapter 4 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In the quiet cemetery, someone suddenly spoke in a cold and hoarse voice. Zhao Jinxing was taken aback. As she turned around, she forgot that she was in a squat position. Thus, she lost her balance and fell. In an instant, she sprained her ankle and her face turned pale. What the h*ck! When one was unlucky, he could even choke from drinking water. ¡°Miss, are you alright?¡± ¡°What do you say?¡± Zhao Jinxing was annoyed. The man reached out to help Zhao Jinxing. When he saw that Zhao Jinxing hurt her foot, he frowned slightly and asked, ¡°Do you want to go to the hospital?¡± Only then did Zhao Jinxing see his face. He had straight eyebrows, bright eyes, and a high nose bridge. Besides, he had a slender figure, a narrow waist, and wide hips. The long, black trench coat could not hide his great body figure. Instead, it made him stand out even more. Zhao Jinxing would have thought that he was a model walking out from the runway if they weren¡¯t here. Unlike the warm and sunny eyes of others, he had deep, cold, and mysterious eyes. ¡°Do you need to go to the hospital?¡±, asked the man again. ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± That made her think of her grandfather who had just passed away in the hospital. Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t fancy the word ¡°hospital.¡± Moreover, Zhao Jinxiu was in the hospital now. She didn¡¯t want to see Zhao Jinxiu and get annoyed. ¡°Thank you.¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± Zhao Jinxing did not get it. The man pointed at the weeds and repeated solemnly, ¡°Thank you for helping my mother tidy up her grave.¡± It turned out that it was his mother¡¯s grave. In that case, he shouldn¡¯t be too young. It wasn¡¯t obvious from his looks. ¡°This is my name card. If you need my help in the future, just¡­¡± ¡°I need your help now.¡± The man froze on the spot, but he quickly regained his composure and asked, ¡°What do you need me to do?¡± Zhao Jinxing glanced at him from head to toe. There was no logo on his outfit, but it seemed to be expensive judging from the style and fabric. It should have been custom-made. The only luxury item on his body was the watch on his wrist. If she wasn¡¯t wrong, that belonged to the Vacheron Constantin¡¯s Patrimony legacy series. Although it was not as expensive as any of her necklaces, it was enough to deal with Zhao Hong and the rest. Most importantly, he was much better than the handicapped from the Huo Family. ¡°Give yourself to me.¡± ¡°¡­¡± The man twitched his lips and said, ¡°Miss, this is the first time we meet.¡± ¡°So what?¡± Zhao Jinxing did not care. She continued, ¡°Some people may not get married even after dating for seven years. Meanwhile, some only take one day to get married. We belong to the latter.¡± The man was speechless. ¡°My name is Zhao Jinxing. My mother has passed away. My grandfather¡¯s grave is in the row in front. If you say yes, we will pay respect to him right now and get married later in the afternoon.¡± The man stared at Zhao Jinxing for a long time. Finally, he asked gently, ¡°Are you serious?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t be more serious.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± The two of them clicked with each other. Zhao Jinxing held his arm and limped to Zhuang Zhenting¡¯s grave. She knelt down with a thud. ¡°Grandfather, this is my husband. His name is¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing paused for a moment before asking, ¡°Oh right, what¡¯s your name?¡± The man lost his words. He lifted up the edge of his clothes and knelt down solemnly. ¡°Hi, grandfather. I¡¯m Qin Yu.¡± So his name was Qin Yu, his name sounded good. ¡°I¡¯m sorry that I didn¡¯t prepare anything for you because everything is so sudden. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take good care of Jinxing from now on. I will protect her, pamper her, and make her happy forever.¡± Zhao Jinxing felt her eyes tearing up. Chapter 5 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qin Yu respectfully kowtowed to grandfather. Then, he helped Zhao Jinxing up and carried her in his arms. Zhao Jinxing was stunned for a moment before Qin Yu explained, ¡°We¡¯ve already met your parents, we¡¯re officially husband and wife now.¡± That explained why he didn¡¯t carry her just now. It was because they were not official yet. Zhao Jinxing suddenly felt that her husband who came out of nowhere was a little interesting. ¡°Did you bring your ID card?¡± Qin Yu asked. Zhao Jinxing shook her head. Her ID card and household register were both at the law firm. She left them behind when she was handling the inheritance. ¡°You left it at home?¡± Zhao Jinxing mentioned the name of the law firm and continued, ¡°I¡¯ll ask someone to get it, but I¡¯m not sure if I could get it today.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Qin Yu thought for a moment and said, ¡°I know that law firm, I¡¯ll inform them to send it to the Civil Affairs Bureau.¡± Qin Yu carried her as he walked out. They went through the registration, photoshoot, and stamping procedures. Finally, they got the marriage certificate. In just a few hours, Zhao Jinxing completed her marriage registration. Although she was the one who suggested it, she felt a little incredulous when she saw the red book in her hands. She was married now. ¡°We¡¯re here.¡± Their car left the Civil Affairs Bureau and stopped at the entrance of a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. Qin Yu went around the front of the car, opened the door of the passenger seat, and carried Zhao Jinxing out. ¡°What are you doing here? Are you not feeling well?¡± Zhao Jinxing frowned. He agreed to get married so quickly. Could it be that he had a hidden illness? As if he knew what Zhao Jinxing was thinking, Qin Yu carried her and placed her on a soft couch. Then, he knocked her on the forehead and said, ¡°I¡¯m very healthy.¡± Zhao Jinxing was stunned. No one had done this to her in many years. The last time was ten years ago when her mother was around, later on¡­ Sensing that Zhao Jinxing wasn¡¯t in a good mood, Qin Yu half-squatted and looked her in the eye. He said, ¡°Dr. Yang is a very good doctor. He will give you a massage later. Your foot will stop hurting tomorrow, so we don¡¯t have to go to the hospital.¡± It turned out that he was worried about her foot injury. ¡°Actually, I¡¯m much better now. I didn¡¯t hurt my bone. I¡¯ll be fine later after getting some ice pack.¡± ¡°If you¡¯re injured, you need to see a doctor. Don¡¯t take it too lightly,¡± Qin Yu refused to give in. Soon, a middle-aged man in a white coat pushed open the door. He first looked at Qin Yu, then at Zhao Jinxing beside. He adjusted the glasses on his nose and said with a smile, ¡°It¡¯s rare to see you bring a girl here. I thought you¡¯re going to be single for the rest of your life.¡± ¡°This is Yang Xian,¡± Qin Yu introduced him to Zhao Jinxing. ¡°This is Jinxing, my wife.¡± Yang Xian was just about to take a sip of tea. When he heard the words ¡°my wife¡±, he spurted. ¡°What did you say? Who is she?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Mrs. Qin,¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled as she held Qin Yu¡¯s hand. She even waved at him proudly. ¡°We¡¯re official!¡± Yang Xian looked at Zhao Jinxing, then at Qin Yu. He clicked his tongue in wonder, ¡°I never thought that an old man like you would marry someone so young after being single for so long. This girl is still very young, right? How dare you!¡± Old man? Zhao Jinxing narrowed her eyes. No one could bully her man apart from her. Nobody! ¡°Hubby¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing gently shook Qin Yu¡¯s arm, she sounded so sweet as she said, ¡°Are you close to this uncle? Is his medical skills really that good?¡± What? Uncle? Yang Xian was so angry that he almost jolted. With his fingers trembling, he pointed at Zhao Jinxing and said, ¡°What bullsh*t uncle? I¡¯m only three years older than him, do you know that?¡± Chapter 6 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Only three years older?¡± Zhao Jinxing pretended to look at Yang Xian in surprise. Then, she looked at Qin Yu with a conflicted face. It was as if she was saying, ¡°He is only three years older than you, but why does he look so much older?¡± However, she didn¡¯t say it out loud, so Yang Xian had no chance to refute her. He was so frustrated that he felt stuffy in his chest. Forget it, she was still wet behind the ears. Yang Xian thought to himself. He must not bother about someone like her. He had to be magnanimous and cultured! ¡°Hubby,¡± Zhao Jinxing tugged at Qin Yu¡¯s arm and made him lower his head. Qin Yu did as he was told. Zhao Jinxing cupped his face and looked at him seriously, ¡°We have to try hard to keep our youth. Don¡¯t be stingy on money. Your wife is rich, don¡¯t be afraid.¡± Then, she sighed, ¡°But there are some things that we¡¯re born with. No matter how hard we try, we won¡¯t be able to change it.¡± Qin Yu couldn¡¯t help but tilt his head and smile. Yang Xian had just calmed down, but he became so angry now that he almost puked blood. ¡°Okay,¡± Qin Yu spoke at the right time to stop them from arguing. ¡°She sprained her ankle. Take a look at her.¡± Yang Xian snorted unwillingly, but he examined her carefully since he carried the ethics of a doctor. ¡°Her bones are fine.¡± Yang Xian used silver needles to prick a few acupoints. Zhao Jinxing stopped feeling pain soon after. Then, he wrote a prescription for Qin Yu. He then asked Qin Yu to get it from the pharmacy when the medicine was ready. Yang Xian and Zhao Jinxing were left in the ward. Yang Xian held a teacup and tried to cool his tea. He pretended to be observing Zhao Jinxing, but Zhao Jinxing was not afraid at all. She looked into his eyes boldly. ¡°How long have you two known each other?¡± Yang Xian asked. Zhao Jinxing thought for a moment. ¡°About four to five hours!¡± Yang Xian almost spilled his tea again. Four to five¡­ hours? ¡°What? Haven¡¯t you seen anyone getting married in a flash?¡± ¡°I did,¡± replied Yang Xian slowly, ¡°But I¡¯ve never seen anyone getting married in such a short time.¡± Qin Yu had been a very serious man. Throughout these years, he didn¡¯t even have any woman around him, let alone a scandal. How could he marry a girl after only four to five hours? Did the pigs fly? ¡°Then you¡¯ve seen it now,¡± Zhao Jinxing snorted. ¡°Little girl, your mouth is pretty sharp.¡± ¡°Uncle, it¡¯s you who¡¯s outdated!¡± Zhao Jinxing retorted. ¡°Hey, little girl, I¡¯m your savior. Why are you being so mean to me?¡± Zhao Jinxing slowly replied, ¡°Because Qin Yu is my man.¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Xian didn¡¯t understand. What did this have to do with his question? ¡°No one can bully him except for me,¡± Zhao Jinxing said arrogantly. ¡°You can¡¯t even talk about it!¡± Yang Xian racked his brain and finally figured it out. This girl was avenging Qin Yu because of his previous statement! Yang Xian was still angry. Well, this girl didn¡¯t seem to be reliable. But if she was able to protect Qin Yu, that was not bad! ¡°If you feel unwell in the future, feel free to look for me,¡± Yang Xian handed her a gold-plated name card. ¡°This is a VIP¡¯s privilege.¡± Zhao Jinxing glanced at it and took it without any hesitation. ¡°I won¡¯t thank you.¡± Tsk! How vengeful! Qin Yu came back after a short while. This time, Zhao Jinxing took the initiative to let him carry her. After picking her up, Qin Yu greeted Yang Xian calmly, ¡°Let¡¯s catch up when we have time.¡± Yang Xian understood immediately. He waved his hand in tacit agreement and sent them away. An icy cold person met a spicy hot chili, what a dangerous couple! One would be so doomed to provoke the two of them! Chapter 7 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Is there anywhere you¡¯d like to go?¡± Qin Yu asked after leaving the Chinese medicine clinic. It was already dark outside. Zhao Jinxing suddenly realized that it was their wedding night. From the way Qin Yu asked, could it be¡­ ¡°I just returned to the country. I haven¡¯t bought a place in City A yet. I¡¯m staying at the Jinjiang Hotel for now.¡± Qin Yu glanced at her and said softly, ¡°You have to stay in your own place for a while. When you¡¯re free, we can go and choose a place. Is that okay?¡± ¡°Of course, no problem,¡± Zhao Jinxing couldn¡¯t help but heave a sigh of relief. Even though they were married, she wasn¡¯t ready to get intimate with him yet. Buzz¡­ Zhao Jinxing¡¯s phone rang. She opened it and saw that it was Zhao Hong again. Ever since she got her ID card and household register from the law firm, Zhao Hong seemed to have found out something. He called her multiple times, but she didn¡¯t pick up. Now that everything was fixed, she didn¡¯t mind picking up. ¡°Zhao Jinxing, what are you doing with your ID card and household register? Don¡¯t mess around!¡± Qin Yu could feel Zhao Hong¡¯s anger through the phone. He furrowed his brows slightly. Zhao Jinxing curled her lips. ¡°Dear father, what can I do with my ID card and household register?¡± ¡°Hey!¡± Zhao Hong never thought that Zhao Jinxing would get married for real! However¡­ ¡°Jinxing! Your grandfather¡¯s inheritance agreement clearly states that your marriage has to meet certain conditions. If you randomly marry someone, you will lose all the inheritance rights!¡± ¡°I am his granddaughter, for sure I know what he is thinking. Don¡¯t worry, my husband will definitely make everyone happy!¡± After saying this, Zhao Jinxing cut off the phone. ¡°Qin Yu, we need to go back to Fenglinwan,¡± Zhao Jinxing looked ahead with a determined gaze. Tonight, she wanted to take everything back! ¡°Okay,¡± Qin Yu turned around. At Fenglinwan, in the living room. Chen Ping brewed a cup of ginseng tea and placed it on the table. She then sat down next to Zhao Hong and gently massaged his shoulders. She gently advised, ¡°Zhao Hong, Jinxing is just a child. Don¡¯t be angry with her. When she comes back, talk to her properly. How could a father fight with his daughter?¡± ¡°If she was half as considerate as Jinxiu, I wouldn¡¯t be so angry!¡± Zhao Hong seemed to be disappointed! Zhao Jinxing had just entered the door when she heard Zhao Hong¡¯s words. She smiled sarcastically, ¡°Of course, I¡¯m not as considerate as Zhao Jinxiu. After all, she¡¯s your only biological child!¡± Hearing Zhao Jinxing¡¯s sarcastic tone, Zhao Hong became even angrier! ¡°B*stard! How dare you steal your identity card and household register to get married? Are you trying to make me mad and kill me? First, you pushed Jinxiu down and injured her. Now, you¡¯re taking your own marriage as a joke. Are you trying to humiliate Zhao Family?¡± ¡°Zhao Family? What Zhao Family?¡± Zhao Jinxing sneered, ¡°Every single plant, brick, and tile here belong to the Zhuang Family. Did you forget that you are just a son-in-law? Everything you have now doesn¡¯t belong to you, but you have them because of my mother, your wife!¡± ¡°Hey!¡± After being exposed, Zhao Hong was both embarrassed and angry. He raised his hand and was about to hit Zhao Jinxing. Qin Yu stopped him and threw him to the side. ¡°Who do you think you are? How dare you behave atrociously in my house? Guys, get him out of here!¡± Chapter 8 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Hong¡¯s bodyguards were about to step forward when Qin Yu¡¯s gaze swept across them. They couldn¡¯t help but shudder. Then, they stopped immediately. No one dared to move. Qin Yu released Zhao Hong and helped Zhao Jinxing sit down on the sofa. Then, he spoke, ¡°I¡¯m Qin Yu, Jinxing¡¯s husband.¡± Chen Ping saw Qin Yu¡¯s noble aura but didn¡¯t know who he was. She didn¡¯t dare to interrupt, so she could only give Zhao Hong a meaningful stare. Zhao Hong sensed something as well. He cleared his throat and sat down. Then, he put on the airs of an elder, ¡°Since ancient times, marriage has been decided by the family. The Zhao Family has a marriage deal with the Huo Family first. Now that you guys are acting on your own, how is this appropriate?¡± Zhao Jinxing retorted, ¡°The person who has a marriage deal with the Huo Family is Zhao Jinxiu. What does it have to do with me? What, now that she got the shares, she refuses to marry into the Huo Family and live as a widow?¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± Zhao Hong slammed the table angrily, ¡°If you didn¡¯t push your sister down the stairs, would she become like this now? Not to mention that you didn¡¯t apologize to her, how could you say this to her now? Did you forget all your morals and virtues?¡± Qin Yu frowned when he heard this. He couldn¡¯t believe how biased Zhao Hong was. No wonder Zhao Jinxing was so upset when they first met. She didn¡¯t mention a word about her father. ¡°Speaking of that, there are so many servants at home when that incident happened. Someone would have witnessed it. Why don¡¯t we ask them one by one? Won¡¯t that clear things up?¡± Qin Yu said calmly. Chen Ping¡¯s expression changed immediately when she heard this. She interrupted instantly, ¡°You¡¯re blood-related sisters, you shouldn¡¯t go this far. Jinxiu is the elder sister, so she should give in to Jinxing. Jinxing, let¡¯s not talk about this anymore. Let¡¯s pretend it never happened.¡± ¡°No, even blood-related brothers have to settle scores openly.¡± Zhao Jinxing did not buy that. In the beginning, she did not want to shed all pretense of cordiality. She was giving face to Zhao Hong. Now that he was being despicable and shameless, she just had to do this! ¡°It¡¯s true that we have servants at home. Besides, we have surveillance cameras at the upper left corner of the stairs. I originally installed them for fun, but now it looks like it would be useful.¡± Chen Ping felt guilty and tugged at Zhao Hong¡¯s clothes. Zhao Hong instantly pointed at Zhao Jinxing and scolded, ¡°Don¡¯t you feel ashamed? One shouldn¡¯t expose his own family¡¯s dirty laundry. Auntie didn¡¯t want to expose you, but you insist on making a big deal out of it. I think you are just trying to make me mad!¡± ¡°This is really strange! You keep saying that you want to get justice for Zhao Jinxiu. When I¡¯m offering solutions, you didn¡¯t want to follow. What, do you feel guilty about it? Don¡¯t you know Zhao Jinxiu is a b*stard?¡± ¡°Hey! Stop it!¡± Zhao Hong was so angry that his face turned red. He covered his chest with one hand and panted heavily. He looked like he was about to have a heart attack. Zhao Jinxing slowly took out a bottle of fast-acting heart attack pills from the drawer under the coffee table. She took out two pills and handed them to Zhao Hong. Then, she smiled and said, ¡°You have to stay healthy. I¡¯m still waiting for you to go through the formalities and return the Zhuang¡¯s inheritance to me!¡± Upon hearing the word ¡°inheritance¡±, Zhao Hong¡¯s breathing immediately became normal again. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter even if something happens to him. You can inherit two portions of them,¡± Qin Yu added at the right time, ¡°That¡¯s provided if Mr. Zhao has any assets under his name.¡± Hearing this, Zhao Jinxing raised her head and glanced at Qin Yu. At the same time, Qin Yu turned around. Both of them looked at each other and smiled. Although they hadn¡¯t known each other for long, they seemed to have a tacit understanding. Chapter 9 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Hong gradually regained his senses. He knew that Zhao Jinxing would not take the carrot and stick. The marriage with the Huo Family would most likely be ruined. However, it was impossible that Zhao Hong would let her inherit the Zhenting Group! ¡°Jinxing! Your grandfather worried about your marriage the most. That was why he specifically stated in the inheritance that you have to marry someone who¡¯s a match for our family. Any ordinary man couldn¡¯t marry you.¡± Zhuang Zhenting never cared about family status. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have allowed his only daughter to marry Zhao Hong who had nothing. Even though after Zhao Jinxing was born, he didn¡¯t make her surname Zhuang. Unexpectedly, such a kind-hearted old man had invited a wolf into their house and was deceived by a hypocrite like Zhao Hong! Zhao Jinxing knew it for sure that Zhao Hong must have tampered with the so-called inheritance conditions. However, she had missed the opportunity to reveal it. There was no point in arguing about it now. Fortunately, she had discussed with Qin Yu on the way here. ¡°I¡¯m definitely ready for it since I¡¯m married now. What conditions do you have? Tell me!¡± Zhao Hong glanced at her and looked at Qin Yu. After sizing him up, he asked, ¡°Qin Yu, right? How old are you this year? You don¡¯t look too young.¡± Zhao Jinxing was about to retort, but Qin Yu held her back. He shook his head at her and answered Zhao Hong¡¯s question. ¡°31 years old.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that 11 years older than Jinxing?¡± Chen Ping cried out in surprise. Then, she whispered, ¡°There¡¯s too much age difference!¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± Zhao Jinxing could let it go if it was Zhao Hong. At least they were related by blood, but Chen Ping was nothing! What right did she have to criticize Qin Yu? ¡°We¡¯re talking about our family matters. You can either shut up, or I¡¯ll have someone throw you out!¡± Chen Ping was angry and wanted to act coquettishly with Zhao Hong. However, Zhao Hong¡¯s mind was occupied. He was thinking of ways to stop Zhao Jinxing from getting the inheritance. He did not have the time to bother with Chen Ping, so she could only leave indignantly. Zhao Hong cleared his throat and continued, ¡°Are you from City A? What does your family do?¡± ¡°I¡¯m from City B. My family does a little business.¡± City B? Zhao Hong had many business colleagues from City B. He had never heard of any rich family there with the surname Qin. He reckoned Qin Yu was another ordinary rich businessman. He could not help but curl his lips. ¡°The Zhenting Group is a well-known group in City A. Although we are not the richest, we are a member of the upper class. Jinxing is the princess of Zhao Family. We raised her well since she was young. She cannot simply marry you.¡± ¡°Of course.¡± ¡°In my opinion, I definitely don¡¯t want my daughter to marry you. However, she was not wise enough that she insisted to marry you without my permission. Don¡¯t ever think that you can soar to the sky by marrying her! You have nothing to do with the shares of Zhenting Group. You can¡¯t participate in the management either.¡± Qin Yu said calmly, ¡°I don¡¯t have any interest in Zhenting Group. This belongs to Jinxing, I will only help protect what belongs to her.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve recorded everything you¡¯ve said right now. We will write it all down in the agreement. It will be notarized by a lawyer and can¡¯t be changed!¡± ¡°No problem.¡± Zhao Hong frowned. Why would this kid do this when he couldn¡¯t get the company shares? ¡°However, even if you can¡¯t get the shares, you can¡¯t skip the betrothal gifts that you should give Jinxing.¡± As he spoke, Zhao Hong took out the list that he had prepared long ago and pushed it in front of Qin Yu. Chapter 10 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qin Yu glanced at the gift list and looked troubled. Zhao Hong smirked smugly. He knew that it wasn¡¯t easy for someone with a family background like that to fork out a great amount of money. Zhao Jinxing saw through Qin Yu¡¯s difficulties. She took the gift list and immediately pulled a long face, ¡°Aren¡¯t you going too far?¡± ¡°Jinxing, daddy is doing this for your own good!¡± Zhao Hong looked at her lovingly, ¡°We raised you like a little princess. Let¡¯s not talk about anything else, just look at your jewelry box. Which one of your jewelry costs less than a million? Plus, you have a dressing room on the third floor and a special room for designer gowns. These are all very expensive.¡± ¡°I know that you¡¯re angry that I got remarried. You think that someone else took my love away, but I still love you! Saying ¡®I love you¡¯ every day is not enough to maintain a marriage. If you¡¯re not living a life as good as you do at home, you might as well don¡¯t get married!¡± Qin Yu frowned and asked again, ¡°Must we follow the gift list? Can¡¯t we change it?¡± ¡°Of course not!¡± Zhao Hong was very firm, ¡°Not a single cent!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Qin Yu took out his phone and typed in a few numbers. Soon, someone picked up and he said, ¡°Manager Zhang, this is Qin Yu.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s put it this way, I need to transfer some funds here. Yes, it¡¯s very urgent, how much can you get on your side? 20 million? Okay, I¡¯ll ask my secretary to get it later.¡± Then, Qin Yu made three more phone calls. After he was done, he looked at Zhao Hong and said, ¡°88,880,000 dollars in cash, it¡¯ll be here in an hour. To ensure the safety of the funds, I¡¯ve also arranged two security teams to be here.¡± Zhao Hong was dumbfounded. That was 80 million dollars! Why did he make it as simple as 8,000 dollars? Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t expect Qin Yu to solve the problem so easily. This was completely different from what they had discussed earlier. ¡°As for two family villas in Fenglinwan,¡± Qin Yu frowned, ¡°I have a few houses in Tianshangshui. I don¡¯t have any properties in Fenglinwan yet, but I¡¯ve made some arrangements. I¡¯ll get two houses here within a week.¡± Tianshangshui was the top villa in City A, those who stayed there were either rich or powerful. Even when Zhuang Zhenting was still alive, he couldn¡¯t get a house there. How many houses did Qin Yu say he had? ¡°As for the three Bentleys¡­ I¡¯m sorry, I only have the limited edition Mulsanne of the Bentley series in my garage. I can get someone to bring six of them over, is that okay?¡± Zhao Hong was about to puke blood. Did he say that Mulsanne was the worst car he had? On top of that, did he ask whether ¡®it is okay¡¯? ¡°Young man, you need watch your words while bragging!¡± Zhao Hong repeatedly told himself to calm down. This kid was definitely trying to trick him! Looking at his clothes, not a single logo was seen. How could he take out 80 million in cash? He must be kidding! This must be a trick played by that wretched girl, Zhao Jinxing! ¡°If I were to brag, I don¡¯t have to watch my words,¡± Qin Yu smiled. An hour later, the doorbell at the Zhuang¡¯s villa rang. The main door slowly opened. Six brand new Bentley Mulsanne cars drove in one after another. Then, three to four cash delivery vehicles followed and steadily stopped at the main door. The bodyguards carried the cash boxes one by one and arranged them neatly in the living room. Then, they opened the cash boxes in unison. The bright red banknotes shocked Zhao Hong so much that he almost forgot to breathe. ¡°This¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing stared blankly at the man in front of him, ¡°Who are you exactly?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Qin Yu, Mrs. Qin.¡± Chapter 11 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The commotion downstairs alarmed Chen Ping. There were money all over the living room and cars parked in the courtyard. Looking at this scene, she was so angry that she clenched her teeth hard. How could this wretched girl have such a good life? Zhao Jinxing was so close to being sent to the Huo Family. Out of expectation, she suddenly got married. Putting that aside, it would be great if she ended up losing her inheritance rights. However, Zhao Jinxing managed to find such a rich person to marry her. He was able to get so many luxury cars and cash in such a short time. He must be someone rich with high social status! God was so unfair! ¡°Hey, Qin Yu!¡± Zhao Hong instantly acted differently towards Qin Yu. At this moment, he looked kind and amiable. It was as if the previously aggressive man was a fake. ¡°We are family now that you¡¯ve married Jinxing. Shall we meet your parents and discuss about your wedding? Also, shall we get to know each other more?¡± Zhao Hong finally came back to his senses. He knew Qin Yu was definitely someone special. Qin Yu might even be more powerful than the Huo Family. If he could get along with this son-in-law, he would be able to act pompously in City A later. Qin Yu glanced at Zhao Jinxing and muttered, ¡°I can decide on my own marriage. If Jinxing wants to meet them later, I¡¯ll call them over.¡± In other words, Zhao Hong didn¡¯t have the right to see the Qin Family. Zhao Hong¡¯s expression turned a little ugly. He took a glance at the red banknotes in the living room and instantly put on an amiable smile, ¡°It¡¯s okay then.¡± ¡°Oh right, you guys haven¡¯t had dinner, right? Madam Zhang, hurry up and cook. Qin Yu, let¡¯s have a drink together tonight.¡± ¡°Wait.¡± Zhao Jinxing interrupted Zhao Hong¡¯s enthusiasm and asked coldly, ¡°If you accept our marriage, shall we talk about the inheritance?¡± ¡°Hey, it¡¯s your big day. Why are you so insensible to talk about the inheritance?¡± Zhao Hong rebuked. He knew Zhao Jinxing¡¯s temper very well. He said, ¡°Jinxing, I¡¯m not a biased person. I will give you everything you deserve. I¡¯m getting old, how long can I live? Our family business will all go to you and your sister in the future.¡± ¡°Hey¡­¡± ¡°Jinxing.¡± Qin Yu interrupted and held her tightly-clenched right hand. He comforted her gently, ¡°It¡¯s really late now, you haven¡¯t eaten for the entire day. Let¡¯s eat something, alright?¡± Zhao Jinxing glanced at him and stopped talking. ¡°That¡¯s right. Come, Let¡¯s eat.¡± Zhao Hong warmly led Qin Yu to the living room, but Qin Yu didn¡¯t make a single move. Instead, he bent down and helped Zhao Jinxing up. Then, he picked her up in his arms and carried her into the dining room. ¡°Cough¡­¡± Zhao Hong coughed lightly. Young people these days were indeed not shy to show affection. ¡°Jinxing sprained her ankle this afternoon, so it¡¯s not convenient for her to walk,¡± Qin Yu waited until everyone was seated before he explained. ¡°Did you sprain your ankle? Is it serious? Why didn¡¯t you tell me earlier?¡± Zhao Hong sounded so loving, ¡°Madam Zhang, quick, make a pig¡¯s trout soup for Jinxing.¡± Zhao Jinxing was speechless. Chapter 12 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Before this, Zhao Jinxing might have yearned for her father¡¯s meticulous care. She could have been moved by his occasional concern. But now, in the face of this fawning care, she felt deeply annoyed. She was about to puke and could hardly swallow Madam Zhang¡¯s dishes. She put her chopsticks down after a short while. Qin Yu glanced at her and didn¡¯t say much. He tried to ignore Zhao Hong¡¯s flattery while he quickly finished up his plate. In less than 20 minutes, the family banquet was over. ¡°It¡¯s getting late. You should have a good rest today. Tomorrow, I¡¯ll get a lawyer to tell you about the inheritance.¡± Zhao Hong ordered Madam Zhang to tidy up the room on the second floor. Then, he locked up the cash box in the living room. He was going to keep them in the bank later. Zhao Jinxing¡¯s eyes narrowed. Her lips curled up slightly as she said, ¡°Father, Qin Yu gave these betrothal gifts to me. I¡¯ll take care of them.¡± She purposely emphasized the words ¡°to me¡±. Zhao Hong was a little embarrassed, but he still maintained his smile. ¡°Of course, I won¡¯t take away my daughter¡¯s betrothal gifts!¡± ¡°But hey, there¡¯s a lot of money. It¡¯s not safe for a girl to keep it. I¡¯ll put it in the safe for you. When you need this money in the future, just let me know!¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. Grandpa has opened some safe boxes for me in the bank. I have a few empty ones left. I¡¯ve called the bank and asked them to deposit this money tonight!¡± Hearing this, Zhao Hong finally lost his composure. ¡°Jinxing, what do you mean? You don¡¯t even trust your own father?¡± ¡°Of course not,¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled, ¡°I¡¯m doing this for your reputation. People might think that you¡¯re embezzling your daughter¡¯s betrothal gift if they see this. Won¡¯t it become a joke? Oh right, since the betrothal gift is here, don¡¯t you have to give dowry as well?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Zhao Hong didn¡¯t expect to be checkmated. ¡°Jinxing, don¡¯t talk to your elders this way.¡± Qin Yu who was standing at the side suddenly spoke up for Zhao Hong, ¡°Mr. Zhao said that you¡¯re the little princess of the family. You have all the best food and clothes. Mr. Zhao will definitely go all in to prepare a dowry for you. Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯ll be much more than my betrothal gift.¡± After saying this, Qin Yu took a look at Zhao Hong, ¡°What do you say?¡± A dowry that was more than the betrothal gift¡­ Zhao Hong clenched his teeth so hard. Although Zhenting Group was worth over a billion, nobody could withdraw so much ready cash. On top of that, counting in the houses and luxury cars, it would cost more than one to two hundred million¡­ One to two hundred million! Just thinking about it made Zhao Hong have a heart attack. However, he could not refute in front of Qin Yu. After all, he said it himself just now. If he took back his words, it would be a big shame! ¡°Yes, you¡¯re right. I will give more than that!¡± ¡°Zhao Hong!¡± Chen Ping was extremely anxious. Chen Ping knew it best about how much money they had. If they were to give away so many things to Zhao Jinxing as a dowry, there would be nothing left for Jinxiu later! ¡°Shut up!¡± Zhao Hong berated her. He glared angrily at Chen Ping! He had to pay the price for what he had overpromised! Thank you then, Father!¡± Zhao Jinxing thanked him sincerely this time. Chapter 13 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Thinking that he was about to lose two hundred million, Zhao Hong¡¯s heart ached so much that he refused to act up. He didn¡¯t even care about Zhao Jinxing¡¯s stay tonight. He covered his chest and went upstairs with a pale face. As for Chen Ping, she went upstairs after being scolded by Zhao Hong. She could no longer keep her stance as a gentle and virtuous stepmother. Both of them left the villa in a car. After a long time, Zhao Jinxing couldn¡¯t help but smile after thinking about that scene! ¡°Are you happy?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Zhao Jinxing nodded heavily. It was the first time she felt so happy ever since her grandfather passed away. ¡°This is just the beginning. In the future, I will make them return all the money they have taken from us all these years!¡± Qin Yu glanced at her and held her hand lovingly, ¡°For sure.¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at him and asked, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you ask me for the reason for doing so? Don¡¯t you think I¡¯m vicious to my own father¡­¡± ¡°One shall never judge good and evil without going through the hardships of others.¡± Qin Yu said in a deep voice, ¡°I believe what I saw. You¡¯re a kind-hearted girl. They must have done more outrageous things to make you this angry.¡± Hearing this, Zhao Jinxing had mixed feelings. Her own father didn¡¯t even believe her. Instead, she only knew him for one day. Yet, he had always stood by her side. Qin Yu owned a lake-view villa in Tianshangshui a few years ago. It was empty when he was not in A City. There were only a housekeeper and a few cleaners. At first, he was worried that Zhao Jinxing was not so close to him yet. So, he didn¡¯t want to move in together so soon. After seeing her father and stepmother, Qin Yu didn¡¯t want to leave her in Fenglinwan. So, he brought Zhao Jinxing to Tianshangsui after getting her permission. After parking the car in the basement garage, Qin Yu opened the door and took Zhao Jinxing¡¯s hand. The Butler had been waiting at the door. He immediately greeted them with a smile when they met, ¡°Sir, Madam.¡± Qin Yu introduced them to Zhao Jinxing, ¡°This is the Butler, Uncle Jiang. If you need anything, you can ask him.¡± ¡°Uncle Jiang,¡± Zhao Jinxing greeted with good manner. ¡°Nice to meet you, Madam,¡± Uncle Jiang was all smiles as if he was meeting his daughter-in-law. The Qin¡¯s villa was twice the size of Fenglinwan. Zhao Jinxing grew up with good stuff, yet she couldn¡¯t help but exclaim in admiration. ¡°You didn¡¯t eat much tonight, do you want to eat something? Auntie Rong¡¯s cooking is very good, you¡¯ll definitely like it,¡± Qin Yu asked. ¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Zhao Jinxing shook her head. She didn¡¯t have much of an appetite today. No matter how delicious it was, she couldn¡¯t taste it. ¡°Go upstairs and take a shower then. Rest early. I have something to do in the study.¡± Qin Yu instructed Uncle Jiang to send Zhao Jinxing upstairs. Zhao Jinxing said good night and went up. ¡°Madam, this is your room.¡± Uncle Jiang opened the door and instructed the maid to get her bath ready. Zhao Jinxing took this time to look around. The decoration of the room was very simple. It was in very simple black, white, and ash color. Next to the bedroom, there was a living room and a small door on the side. She wondered where did that door lead to. ¡°Madam, the bathwater is ready. Your clothes have been prepared too,¡± the maid replied. ¡°Okay, thank you.¡± ¡°Rest early.¡± After saying that, Uncle Jiang took the maid out. Chapter 14 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Jinxing closed the bathroom door and removed her clothes. She stepped barefoot on the soft white carpet on the floor. When her body was completely immersed in hot water, the soothing heat seeped into her body through her pores and washed away all her fatigue. She couldn¡¯t help but let out a sigh of relief. The thrilling day had finally come to an end. No matter how difficult her future would be, she was relaxed at this moment. Without realizing it, Zhao Jinxing closed her eyes. In the study. Qin Yu finished reading his last email and sending his reply. Then, he closed it and rubbed his tired forehead. It was already 11 o¡¯clock, he wondered if Zhao Jinxing was asleep. He stood up and left the study. Coincidentally, he ran into Uncle Jiang who came to send him milk. ¡°Uncle Jiang, how¡¯s Mrs. Zhao¡¯s room? Does she like it?¡± ¡°Mrs. Zhao didn¡¯t say anything,¡± Uncle Jiang replied after some thought. Qin Yu guessed Zhao Jinxing was shy to give comments. Thus, he felt like asking her about it. However, it was already late and she was tired. He should ask her tomorrow then! ¡°Tell Auntie Rong to make more delicious food tomorrow morning. Make some Chinese and Western dishes.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± After giving his orders, Qin Yu turned around and went upstairs. He opened the bedroom door and loosened his tie as he walked. He was about to get his pajamas and wash up, but he realized that the bathroom light was on. He frowned and knocked on the door, but there was no response. ¡°Jinxing, is that you?¡± Still, no one answered. All the maids in the house had been serving for many years. They wouldn¡¯t simply enter his bathroom. It must be Zhao Jinxing. However, there was no response. Could it be something wrong? With this thought in mind, Qin Yu didn¡¯t wait for her response and pushed the door open forcefully. Water vapor filled up the small bathroom. Zhao Jinxing was lying naked in the large white bathtub in front of him. She tilted her head slightly with her face flushed red. She subconsciously pouted her little mouth while sleeping. Her pink lips were as soft as jelly. It was so enticing that anyone would want to have a taste of it¡­ No! Qin Yu stopped himself from thinking. Qin Yu came back to his senses and wanted to check on Zhao Jinxing. However, Zhao Jinxing was already awakened by the loud noise as he entered just now. She opened her eyes in a daze. For a moment, she forgot where she was. She sat up and waved at Qin Yu as she saw him. He could vaguely see her body previously, but now she was completely exposed! Qin Yu¡¯s eyes gradually deepened. After a long while, he forced himself to look away and said in a deep voice, ¡°You can¡¯t sleep in the bathroom. If you¡¯re done, put on your clothes and come out.¡± Then, he turned around and closed the bathroom door. Zhao Jinxing was stunned for a while and realized that she was naked. She immediately covered her chest. Her little face turned red! Oh god! What did she do just now? After taking a quick shower, Zhao Jinxing grabbed her bathrobe and put it on. She was about to leave in a hurry. Just as she touched the doorknob, she looked at the shadows outside and frowned. Qin Yu saw her naked body just now. Why did he show no response? Zhao Jinxing looked at herself in the mirror. She had snow-white skin, long black hair, and a little face that was flushed red. Her body figure formed a curvy and delicate outline. She was naked in front of a man. He should have his nose bleeding, but Qin Yu didn¡¯t seem to care. Was she not beautiful in his eyes? Or was he not interested in women? Chapter 15 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The more Zhao Jinxing thought about it, the more she felt something wrong with Qin Yu. In the Chinese medicine clinic, Yang Xian mentioned that Qin Yu had never brought a girl home. This house was empty as if no woman had been here before. Even the bathrobe she was wearing now was a man¡¯s robe. Obviously, the Butler didn¡¯t have time to prepare, so she could only use Qin Yu¡¯s robe. Moreover, Qin Yu agreed without hesitation when she asked him to get married. Could it be that he had a hidden illness? Did he want to marry her as a disguise? In just a short while, Zhao Jinxing¡¯s mind was filled with a series of social news. After some thought, Zhao Jinxing pulled the bathrobe off her beautiful shoulders. She looked innocent and charming at the same time. She pushed open the bathroom door and said in a sweet voice, ¡°Qin Yu.¡± Qin Yu turned around and looked at her indifferently. He quickly looked away. ¡°Yes, Uncle Jiang made a mistake. You can stay here for the night, I¡¯ll sleep in the guest room.¡± What? Did he show no response again? Zhao Jinxing rolled her round eyes and walked towards Qin Yu in her bare feet. After a few steps, her legs suddenly went weak. She tripped and fell towards Qin Yu. She called out while tripping, ¡°Qin Yu!¡± Qin Yu quickly held Zhao Jinxing, but she lost control and bumped into his arms. Her soft body pressed against his hard chest. Zhao Jinxing had been pampered since young. She had never suffered like this. Her brows furrowed in pain but she endured it for the sake of her plan. ¡°Qin Yu, my feet hurt,¡± she said coyly. Qin Yu was afraid that she was injured from the fall, so he bent down and picked her up. Then, he strode over to the bed and carefully put her down. With his knees bent, he lifted her injured foot on his knee. ¡°Did you sprain it again just now?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. Maybe that middle-aged man didn¡¯t treat me properly,¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t mind dragging Yang Xian down. She just felt uncomfortable! Qin Yu carefully observed her foot for a long time, but there was no redness or swelling. He was unsure whether she hurt her bones this time, so he didn¡¯t dare to move. ¡°I¡¯ll call Yang Xian over,¡± Qin Yu got up and was about to leave. Was he going to get Yang Xian over? Then, her plan of acting sick would get exposed! She would be mocked by that middle-aged man! No! ¡°Don¡¯t call him!¡± Zhao Jinxing was in a hurry to stop Qin Yu and forgot that her foot was on his knee. At the same time, Qin Yu was worried that she would fall, so he rushed forward too. Both of them pounced on each other and fell onto the bed with their bodies stacked together. Zhao Jinxing¡¯s forehead was pressed against Qin Yu¡¯s forehead. The tip of her nose touched the tip of his nose. Zhao Jinxing could even feel her eyelashes brushing past his skin. She could feel his breaths too. That was a beautiful mistake! She was confident that Qin Yu would lose himself this time! ¡°Qin Yu.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Am I pretty?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°Why do you keep saying ¡®yes¡¯? Are you a robot?¡± Zhao Jinxing laughed at him. Qin Yu could clearly feel the soft, busty movement stroking against his chest¡­ ¡°You¡­ Get up now!¡± He was going crazy if they kept going this way! ¡°No!¡± Zhao Jinxing refused to get up. ¡°Did you¡­ like what you saw just now?¡± Qin Yu was silent. Zhao Jinxing was upset. She curled her brows and said, ¡°You don¡¯t like it?¡± Qin Yu remained silent. ¡°No.¡± ¡°So, you like it then!¡± Qin Yu took a deep breath and tried his best to sound normal, ¡°No¡­¡± ¡°You keep saying no. What do you mean?¡± Chapter 16 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qin Yu grabbed Zhao Jinxing¡¯s arm and flipped himself up. ¡°I¡¯m going to call Yang Xian.¡±As he said that, he got up and left quickly. Call Yang Xian? Why was he thinking of Yang Xian at a time like this! ¡°Forget it, forget it!¡± Zhao Jinxing admitted defeat. Qin Yu was indeed gay! ¡°My feet are fine, I was just joking.¡± Qin Yu stopped in his tracks, turned around, and frowned in disbelief. ¡°Are you really fine?¡± Zhao Jinxing was speechless and rolled her eyes. ¡°Qin Yu, tell me the truth! I won¡¯t look down on you. It would actually be nice to consider you as a sister,¡± Zhao Jinxing comforted herself. At least he was handsome and rich. ¡°Sister?¡± Zhao Jinxing put on her bathrobe and slippers, and walked up to Qin Yu, standing on her tiptoes, she patted his shoulder earnestly, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, you helped me today, so I¡¯ll help you as well. I won¡¯t tell anyone about this.¡± Qin Yu didn¡¯t understand, so he quickly replayed what happened that night in his mind. Taking into account Zhao Jinxing¡¯s expression, a strange thought slowly formed in his mind. Did this little girl think that he was¡­ As expected, the next second, he heard Zhao Jinxing say: ¡°But before we get divorced, you can¡¯t find a boyfriend. Of course, if you meet your true love, tell me and we¡¯ll get a divorce. I¡¯m generous like that.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Qin Yu narrowed his eyes. ¡°Of course!¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t notice his facial expression and continued talking to herself, ¡°Since we have a common enemy, we can consider each other as friends. You helped me get so much money from Zhao Hong and his wife, so I owe you at least this much.¡± ¡°Then repay me now!¡± Qin Yu sneered. Zhao Jinxing was stunned, ¡°What?¡± Without waiting for her reaction, Qin Yu walked over with big strides. He bent down and suddenly, Zhao Jinxing was thrown onto the bed. When she looked up, she saw Qin Yu pressing down on her, trapping her in his arms, and she couldn¡¯t move. ¡°You¡­¡± ¡°Actions speak louder than words. Let me show you my preference.¡± As he said this, Qin Yu pressed down a little more. Zhao Jinxing stared blankly at his handsome face. Just as their lips were only 0.01 centimeters apart, she suddenly turned around, her entire face blushing. ¡°You¡­ Get gown, get down!¡± Qin Yu didn¡¯t listen to her, but he didn¡¯t make any more moves either. He only asked in a hoarse voice, ¡°Do you still doubt my sexuality now?¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s little head shook like a rattle-drum as she mumbled, ¡°No, I don¡¯t doubt it anymore!¡± At this moment, he was rubbing against her thigh. Zhao Jinxing was so embarrassed! If this behavior was considered gay, then there would be no such thing as a straight man. Qin Yu retracted his arm, and Zhao Jinxing immediately crawled out from under him as if she had been pardoned. She pulled the blanket aside and wrapped herself up, revealing only her two eyes. She looked like a frightened little rabbit. Qin Yu couldn¡¯t help but laugh. She was so different now compared to earlier when she thought that he was gay. After tidying his clothes, Qin Yu sat down by the bedside and asked, ¡°Do you like it here?¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at him and nodded after a long while, ¡°Is this your room?¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Qin Yu paused, ¡°It¡¯ll be our room from now on.¡± Our room¡­ The redness that had just faded from Zhao Jinxing¡¯s face quietly rose again, ¡°I¡­ I haven¡¯t¡­¡± ¡°I know.¡± Qin Yu reached out and rubbed her head, ¡°You¡¯re still young. I just hope that one day¡­ You¡¯ll be willing.¡± Chapter 17 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Jinxing watched him for a long time before quietly reaching out her index finger and tickling his palm. ¡°Are you sure you want to do that?¡± Qin Yu raised his eyebrows. Zhao Jinxing immediately lay down, closed her eyes, and said, ¡°I¡¯m asleep.¡± Zhao Jinxing retracted quickly after hearing Qin Yu. Qin Yu helplessly and dotingly leaned over and planted a kiss on her forehead, ¡°Good night, sweet dreams.¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t know if it was because she was too tired or because Qin Yu¡¯s good night kiss worked, but she quickly fell asleep with a clear mind. The next day. Qin Yu was already up. Zhao Jinxing went downstairs and saw Qin Yu sitting in the dining room reading the daily newspaper. When he heard her footsteps, he looked up and smiled at her, ¡°You¡¯re up. Come and have breakfast.¡± Zhao Jinxing sat down, and Auntie Rong placed a glass of water in front of her. She smiled and said, ¡°Madam, I didn¡¯t know what you liked to eat, so Sir ordered Chinese and Western dishes. If you want to eat anything else, just let me know.¡± Zhao Jinxing glanced at the sumptuous breakfast on the table and waved her hand, ¡°This is enough, thank you, Auntie Rong.¡± ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± Auntie Rong turned around and went back to the kitchen. Qin Yu waved the milk in his hand and asked, ¡°Do you want some?¡± ¡°I want some juice.¡± Qin Yu got a carton of juice and poured her a glass. He handed it to her. ¡°What are your plans for today?¡± ¡°Zhao Hong just sent me a message to go to the Zhenting Group building at ten o¡¯clock.¡± Zhao Jinxing refused to refer to him as ¡°Father¡±. He didn¡¯t deserve such an intimate name. Qin Yu thought for a while and asked, ¡°Do you want to know what I think?¡± Zhao Jinxing had wanted to ask Qin Yu what he thought, but she was afraid that he was busy and didn¡¯t want to bother him with such a small matter. Since he took the initiative to ask, she quickly nodded. ¡°Zhao Hong can¡¯t stop you from inheriting your inheritance. However, even if you succeed in getting your inheritance, it won¡¯t be easy for you to gain control of Zhenting Group.¡± Zhao Jinxing agreed. Ten years ago, her mother died of illness. Losing his only daughter was a great blow to her grandfather. His body was already in poor health and he soon collapsed. At the time, Zhao Hong gained control over the whole Zhenting Group and made alliances with a lot of influential people in the company. Now, even if she were to obtain her grandfather¡¯s shares and became a major shareholder of Zhenting Group, the people under her might not be willing to submit to her. If Zhao Hong went all out and led the whole management team to resign, the company would suffer greatly. ¡°Besides, he¡¯s still your father. If you don¡¯t show him any mercy, it¡¯ll be bad for your reputation.¡± Qin Yu pointed out. ¡°Although business interests come first, in a place like Z Country, relationships are also very important. If you can¡¯t even pardon your own biological father, how would the others dare to work with you?¡± ¡°But I don¡¯t want to let him go just like that!¡± Thinking about Zhao Hong cheating on her mother more than 20 years ago, bringing his mistress and illegitimate daughter back to Fenglinwan and raising them right under her grandfather¡¯s nose made Zhao Jinxing want to throw him into the sea and feed him to the sharks! Qin Yu looked at her with heartache. He walked across the dining table and patted her hand gently. ¡°I know.¡± ¡°Xingxing, have you seen ¡®Tom and Jerry¡¯?¡± ¡°The cartoon?¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Qin Yu nodded. ¡°Why do you think Jerry is always able to escape Tom?¡± ¡°Obviously because Tom is stupid!¡± ¡°Have you ever thought about how if Tom caught Jerry in one go, then he wouldn¡¯t have any more playmates in the future? Would he have any other reason to stay in the house?¡± Chapter 18 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Jinxing was a smart girl. With a little guidance from Qin Yu, she was able to see the big picture. That¡¯s right! Zhao Hong was selfish and headstrong. He had toyed with her grandfather, mother, and her for so many years. If she exposed his true colors now, it would be letting him off too easily. There was also Chen Ping and Zhao Jinxiu. She would not let any of them off so easily! ¡°I know what to do. The most important thing now is to gain control of Zhenting Group.¡± ¡°Smart girl!¡± Qin Yu gave her a pat on the head with admiration. ¡°Remember, you can always tell me about whatever bad things people have done to you. I will help you get back what¡¯s yours.¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled at Qin Yu across from her while holding her chin. At this time, Qin Yu was wearing casual clothes and holding a piece of bread in one hand and smearing jam on it with the other. However, Zhao Jinxing couldn¡¯t stop staring at him in awe. ¡°What are you looking at?¡± Qin Yu handed her the bread that was smeared with jam. ¡°I think I found treasure.¡± Before she met him yesterday, she thought that she would be marrying a disfigured cripple and that she would have to sacrifice her love life in order to compete with Zhao Hong. She didn¡¯t know what else to do, and she was not even sure that she would be able to protect Zhenting Group after doing all these. But now, in just a day¡¯s time, her world had turned 180 degrees. Zhao Hong¡¯s tricks were no longer a threat, because she had Qin Yu! ¡°I¡¯m the one who found treasure.¡± Qin Yu smiled. The grandest treasure in the world was right in front of him! After breakfast, Qin Yu sent Zhao Jinxing out. Then, he took out a car key from the drawer beside the door and gave it to her. ¡°In the future, if you get bored of driving this car, there are other cars in the garage, you can use them anytime you want.¡± Zhao Jinxing glanced at it and saw that it was a key to a Bentley. ¡°I drive a Bentley, and you drive a BMW?¡± The BMW was the same car Qin Yu drove yesterday. It was precisely because Qin Yu looked like an ordinary man from his clothes to his car that Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t associate him with the Qin family in B City when she heard the name ¡®Qin¡¯. However, when he arrogantly sent over so much cash and the Bentley last night, Zhao Jinxing realized that Qin Yu was the legendary head of the Qin family, the richest man in Z Country and even the entire Y Continent. ¡°A car is just a means of transportation. As long as it can bring you to where you want to go, its logo doesn¡¯t matter.¡± Qin Yu smiled nonchalantly. ¡°However, since today is your first time visiting the company building, make a grand entry.¡± The real reason why he drove his BMW yesterday in A City was because they were in a hurry to get married. Otherwise, he would have had his Rolls-Royce Phantom delivered from B City. Zhao Jinxing reached out and gave him a big bear hug. ¡°I¡¯m liking you more and more!¡± Qin Yu raised his eyebrows, put his arm around her waist, and led her forward. ¡°Say it again.¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing rolled her eyes, ¡°It won¡¯t mean anything if I say it too much! We have to keep it mysterious!¡± As she said this, she gently pushed Qin Yu away and waved at him. ¡°I¡¯m leaving now! We¡¯ll celebrate when I get back!¡± Qin Yu let out a smile and waved back at her. After Zhao Jinxing¡¯s car left the villa, Qin Yu went back into the house. As he turned around, he met Uncle Jiang and Auntie Rong¡¯s gossipy eyes. He was a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, ¡°She¡¯s just like that.¡± ¡°She¡¯s so cute and happy. Moreover, she makes you smile,¡± said Uncle Jiang. He had watched Qin Yu grow up. Throughout his years with Qin Yu, he had never seen him smile so much as he did today. He was really happy to see Qin Yu so happy. Chapter 19 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio At 9:30 am, in front of the Zhenting Group building, a few employees had just entered the building and were punching in their cards to prepare for the day¡¯s work. In the plaza, a silver-gray Bentley suddenly braked ten meters away from the entrance and steadily stopped in the middle of the main entrance. Very soon, a woman came out from the driver¡¯s seat. She was wearing a tight black suit. She was tall and wore a large pair of sunglasses. Her beauty could clearly be seen. The employees walking around were all talking about her. ¡°Who is this? How can she park her car at the main entrance?¡± ¡°That¡¯s a limited edition Bentley. It¡¯s impossible to get a hold of one anymore!¡± ¡°She¡¯s so beautiful! Her skin is so white!¡± ¡°Look, look, the security guards are going over!¡± Zhao Jinxing walked quickly on her stilettos. When she was about to reach the main entrance, she was suddenly stopped by a security guard. ¡°Miss, you can¡¯t park here. Please park your car in the underground carpark.¡± She took off her sunglasses, revealing her beautiful face. The security guard was stunned at first, then he quickly lowered his head and repeated in a low voice, ¡°Miss, I¡¯m sorry, you can¡¯t park here.¡± ¡°I remember that there¡¯s a CEO parking space in the square.¡± The security guard was stunned for a moment, then nodded, ¡°Yes, that¡¯s for CEO Zhao¡­¡± ¡°That parking space will be mine from now on.¡± Zhao Jinxing interrupted him, then threw the car key to him, ¡°I¡¯m in a hurry to go upstairs for a meeting, help me park my car.¡± The security guard looked at the key in his hand, at a loss on what to do. He hadn¡¯t received any notice that the company¡¯s CEO was changing! Right then, the Security Manager trotted over and smiled respectfully. ¡°Miss, don¡¯t worry. We¡¯ll park your car right away. Please come in.¡± As he spoke, he walked Zhao Jinxing all the way to the elevator and personally pressed the button for the top floor for her before leaving. When he returned to the main entrance, the Security Manager gave the security guard¡¯s hat a hard slap, ¡°You idiot, that¡¯s President Zhao¡¯s daughter, the chairman¡¯s biological granddaughter. The entire Zhenting Group belongs to her. How dare you tell her where not to park.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t know!¡± The security guard went to park the car, feeling wronged. Only then did the gossipy crowd realize that she was the legendary Zhenting little Princess, Zhao Jinxing! In the conference room. When Zhao Jinxing arrived, Zhao Hong and the lawyer were already there. Other than them, there were three or four unfamiliar faces. She wasn¡¯t familiar with them, but she had seen all of them at her grandfather¡¯s funeral. Zhao Jinxing nodded lightly as a form of greeting. She pulled out the chair opposite Zhao Hong and sat down. ¡°Since Jinxing is already here, Zhao Lu, please read out the will!¡± Zhao Hong said. ¡°Okay.¡± Lawyer Zhao took out a thick file bag from his briefcase and slowly opened it. He started reading it page by page from the beginning. At first, Zhao Jinxing listened patiently. However, half an hour had passed and he was still reading the first section. Her patience gradually started running out. ¡°Zhao Lu, I¡¯m busy. Please move on to the important parts.¡± Zhao Lu rubbed his eyes and smiled politely. ¡°Miss Zhao, I understand how you feel, but the will is of great importance. I must explain everything clearly to avoid future disputes.¡± Jinxing got even more annoyed. She had really only wanted to hear about the part on her inheritance. Chapter 20 - Resignation Chapter 20 Resignation Just as Zhao Lu was about to continue, Zhao Jinxing raised her hand and interrupted him. ¡°Before you continue, I have a question.¡± Zhao Lu glanced at Zhao Hong. Zhao Hong pondered for a moment before nodding. ¡°Go ahead.¡± ¡°Do you all know why you are here today?¡± Everyone looked at each other. They did not know what Zhao Jinxing meant, but under Zhao Hong¡¯s signal, they still nodded. ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Then, everyone knows about my marriage?¡± Everyone nodded again. ¡°Very good.¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at Zhao Lu this time. ¡°Lawyer Zhao, in my grandfather¡¯s will, doesn¡¯t it say that I will inherit his shares and other assets if I get married?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Zhao Lu paused for a moment. ¡°However, CEO Zhao has to approve your marriage partner before the will can take effect.¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled. ¡°My father gave my marriage his blessings. He even prepared a generous dowry for me, and the gift list is still with me.¡± Hearing the word ¡®gift list¡¯, Zhao Hong¡¯s felt a grave headache coming on. However, in front of everyone, he still forced a smile and said, ¡°Yes, my son-in-law¡­ I¡¯m very satisfied with him.¡± ¡°That makes it even easier.¡± Zhao Jinxing crossed her arms and lazily glanced at Zhao Lu across from her. ¡°Since I¡¯ve fulfilled all the conditions to inheriting the shares, that means that from now on, I¡¯m the largest shareholder of Zhenting Group. Does anyone have any objections?¡± Everyone was checkmated, so they could only brace themselves and acknowledge Zhao Jinxing as the largest shareholder. ¡°But Miss Zhao, the will¡­¡± ¡°Lawyer Zhao, there are no objections to my inheritance. What you need to do now is to complete the procedures for the transfer of shares as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will be forced to reconsider the ability of your firm to work, and whether or not we will continue working with you!¡± Zhao Lu was stunned. He hurriedly contacted his subordinates to start on the transfer procedures. Zhao Hong cleared his throat, he then said, ¡°Jinxing! ¡°Although you are now the largest shareholder of the group, you do not have the knowledge of how the company is managed. There are many things that you need to learn. These uncles here are the pillars of the group. If you have anything that you don¡¯t understand in the future, consult them properly.¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at him suspiciously. ¡°I¡¯m getting old. Now that you young people are taking over, I can finally retire and enjoy my life.¡± Retire? Zhao Jinxing could not believe it. Zhao Hong went through so much to get his position as the current CEO. Now, he was willing to just resign? As expected, just as Zhao Hong finished speaking, the man on his right stepped back from his chair and stood up with a gloomy face. ¡°CEO Zhao, if you are no longer the CEO of Zhenting Group, then I, Director Zhou will also quit!¡± ¡°Yes, that¡¯s right! Me too!¡± ¡°Yes, CEO Zhao, wherever you go, we will follow!¡± ¡°You, all of you¡­¡± Zhao Hong looked troubled, ¡°Why are you all doing this? You¡¯re making things difficult for Jinxing. She needs people to lead to company with her. My old bones can¡¯t keep up with her anymore. The best thing I can do for the company is to hand down my position to her and let her lead the group!¡± Zhao Jinxing narrowed her eyes slightly. It was obvious that he was bluffing! Chapter 21 - I Have Approved the Resignation Chapter 21 I Have Approved the Resignation ¡°Nonsense! Young people don¡¯t know how difficult it is to do business!¡± As soon as Zhao Hong finished his sentence, Director Zhou jumped out to refute, ¡°All these years, if it weren¡¯t for you leading the group through difficulties time and time again, Zhenting Group wouldn¡¯t be where it is today!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! After all you¡¯ve done, she¡¯s being ungrateful to cut you off! There¡¯s no point for us to stay in a company without loyalty!¡± ¡°I agree too. In short, wherever you go, we¡¯ll follow!¡± Zhao Hong was very satisfied with their sense of propriety. At the same time, he looked at Zhao Jinxing with a troubled expression. ¡°Jinxing! Ah¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing sat calmly, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly. ¡°Speaking of which, I haven¡¯t officially been introduced to you guys. You guys are from¡­¡± Director Zhou and the other two looked at each other, tidied up their clothes, and said arrogantly, ¡°I¡¯m the Director of the production department, Zhou Weisheng.¡± ¡°I¡¯m Vice President Li Qingyang, in charge of finance.¡± ¡°I¡¯m the Technical Director, Sun Jianfeng.¡± Production, finance, and technology. Zhao Hong really went out of his way to build alliances with such influential people. Zhao Jinxing nodded. ¡°I understand what you all mean. Logically speaking, I only just inherited the company. For the sake of the company, it¡¯s not appropriate for me to make such a large-scale personnel change.¡± When they heard this, they could not help but be delighted Just like that, the little girl was defeated! As expected, with just a few words of bluff, she was frightened. ¡°But¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing continued, ¡°Everyone has their own aspirations. I thank you for your contributions to the group so far. If you have better offers, I won¡¯t force you to stay.¡± As soon as she finished speaking, she pressed the call button for the CEO¡¯s secretary. ¡°Miss Zhao, what are your orders?¡± ¡°Please send out two personnel notices for me.¡± Zhao Jinxing said, ¡°One is that from today onwards, I will officially become the largest shareholder of Zhenting Group. The other is to approve the resignation requests of these three directors. Effective immediately.¡± When Director Zhou and the other two heard this, they were stunned. This was not part of their plan! Zhao Hong faced turned dull. ¡°Jinxing, these three are the pillars of the company. If you fire them on your first day, what will others employees think?¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Zhao Jinxing had an innocent look on her face. ¡°Lawyer Zhao is my witness! I never said that I would fire them. They were the ones who kept saying that they were going to quit!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a misunderstanding,¡± Zhao Hong frowned. If they were really kicked them out, all that they had done to get to where they were would have been for nothing! ¡°Are you worried about the compensation fee? Don¡¯t worry, they chose to resign. We didn¡¯t fire them for no reason so we don¡¯t need to pay them a compensation fee. Lawyer Zhao, am I right?¡± Lawyer Zhao was speechless. He looked at Zhao Hong, then looked at the three managers beside him. Finally, he forced a smile and said yes, lowered his head and continued working on his documents. Protecting his relationship with Zhao Jinxing was most important right now. Seeing that no one was talking, Zhou Weisheng and the other two were anxious. They had family to provide for. They had a lot of mortgages and car loans. If they lost their jobs, their family would be in deep trouble! Chapter 22 - I Am a Very Easygoing Person Chapter 22 I Am a Very Easygoing Person ¡°CEO Zhao, I thought we had an agreement. Why are we getting fired now?¡± ¡°Enough!¡± Zhao Hong¡¯s face darkened as he interrupted Zhou Weisheng and the others. He walked to Zhao Jinxing¡¯s side, bent down, and said in a low voice, ¡°Jinxing, let¡¯s talk in private.¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at him expressionless. Zhao Hong could not hold back his anger any longer and glared at everyone else in the room. Everyone understood and packed their things and left the meeting room. ¡°Jinxing! Have you forgotten how much I doted on you when you were younger? You¡¯ve only just become the largest shareholder of the group and you¡¯ve already started embarrassing me. If this gets out, my reputation will be ruined.¡± Zhao Jinxing sneered. ¡°You were the one who said that you wanted to resign. Why are you blaming it all on me now?¡± Zhao Hong knew that he was in the wrong. However, he still tried to persuade her nicely, ¡°I had good intentions. I wanted to give you some space to learn as you go. Director Zhou and the others were also like that because they were worried about you. You cannot fire them. Otherwise, the company will be in big trouble.¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t comment. Zhao Hong was anxious, ¡°Jinxing, even if you don¡¯t care about my reputation, keep them here for the sake of your grandfather. Zhenting Group is his life¡¯s work. Do you want to see it go bankrupt?¡± At the mention of Zhuang Zhenting, Zhao Jinxing fell silent. Seeing that she was wavering, he continued, ¡°The marriage between the Huo family and ours is also still uncertain. If the company goes downhill from here and someone takes advantage of the situation, we¡¯ll be in deep trouble.¡± After a long while, Zhao Jinxing slowly said, ¡°I can recall the personnel notices and pretend that what happened just now didn¡¯t happen. You can also continue to be the CEO of the group.¡± Zhao Hong finally calmed down. ¡°But I also have my conditions.¡± ¡°Go ahead!¡± ¡°Firstly, at the shareholders¡¯ meeting in a week¡¯s time, I want you to support me regarding my proposal to be the CEO.¡± This was simply a courtesy, as she could be the CEO either way. She just wanted to see Zhao Hong¡¯s sour expression after hearing her request. ¡°That¡¯s for sure.¡± Zhao Hong put on a fake smile. ¡°Secondly, Zhao Jinxiu received Zhenting Group shares and joined the Zhao family. As the daughter of the Zhao family, she should also make some sacrifices for the group. She must fulfill our promise to the Huo family and get married.¡± ¡°Um¡­¡± Zhao Hong was in a difficult position. Thinking of the disfigured cripple of the Huo family, Zhao Hong felt extremely sorry for his beautiful daughter for having to be with such a person for the rest of her life. Zhao Jinxing smiled sarcastically and generously offered a second option. ¡°I know that Zhao Jinxiu will probably not agree to this. If she doesn¡¯t want to marry, that¡¯s fine too.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Zhao Hong¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°Of course, as long as she returns her shares of Zhenting Group to me.¡± Zhao Hong was speechless. He had painstakingly pined for those shares for so many years. This was not an option for him. It was absolutely impossible! ¡°This marriage was promised when your grandfather was still alive. One can not go back on one¡¯s words. Don¡¯t worry, I will prepare Jinxiu for marriage well.¡± ¡°Thank you, I feel at ease now.¡± USS Zhao Jinxing stood up and smiled politely at him. ¡°You know, I have always been a very easygoing person. I hope that we can discuss things this way in the future.¡± The corner of Zhao Hong¡¯s mouth twitched, and he felt his heart hurt even more. Chapter 23 - Washing Hands to Make Soup Chapter 23 Washing Hands to Make Soup After leaving the Zhenting Group building, Zhao Jinxing stood in the plaza at the main entrance and looked up at the building that towered into the clouds. This was her grandfather¡¯s life¡¯s work, and it was also where her mother spent her youth. From now on, she would be the guardian of this place. ¡°Buzz, buzz¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s phone vibration interrupted her thoughts. She took out her phone and took a look. She saw a message from ¡®Husband¡¯, and she smiled sweetly. Qin Yu must have secretly changed his contact name on her phone last night while she was asleep. He definitely had game. ¡°Hello.¡± ¡°It¡¯s me.¡± ¡°Mhm.¡± ¡°Is the meeting over?¡± ¡°Mhm.¡± Qin Yu frowned and took his phone away from his ear to look at the caller ID. It was indeed Zhao Jinxing¡¯s number! ¡°Is it inconvenient to talk?¡± ¡°No!¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled. ¡°I learned it from you, the ¡®mhm¡¯ robot!¡± Qin Yu couldn¡¯t help but laugh. The little girl was making fun of him again! The meeting must have gone well seeing that she was in a good mood. ¡°Are you coming home for lunch?¡± Qin Yu asked. Coming home for lunch¡­ It had been so long since Zhao Jinxing last heard those words. Ever since Chen Ping and her daughter moved into her home, she hated the place and hated eating with them even more. She would rather eat outside than go home. But now, there was finally someone who constantly wondered if she had eaten and would ask her if she would come home to eat. ¡°Yes!¡± Zhao Jinxing nodded hard. ¡°I want to eat sweet and sour ribs, crab powder tofu, stir-fried vegetables, and dewdrop fish and tomato soup.¡± She wasn¡¯t hungry at first, but the more she talked, the more she wanted to eat. ¡°I can¡¯t, I¡¯m so hungry, I¡¯m coming home now!¡± ¡°Okay, drive safely.¡± After hanging up, Zhao Jinxing walked to her designated parking spot. The security guard from the morning was already waiting by the car, waiting to open her car door for her. ¡°Thanks.¡± Zhao Jinxing quickly drove off. Tianshangshui. ¡°I¡¯m back!¡± Zhao Jinxing was changing her shoes at the door when Qin Yu poked his head out of the kitchen. ¡°Go wash your hands. There¡¯s fruit in the living room, dinner will be ready in half an hour.¡± Zhao Jinxing went to the bathroom to wash her hands. When she passed by the living room, she took an apple from the fruit platter and nibbled on it as she walked into the kitchen. ¡°Why are you cooking?¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at Qin Yu, who was washing vegetables by the sink. Qin Yu coughed a little uncomfortably, ¡°Auntie Rong couldn¡¯t handle it by herself, so I¡­ came over to help.¡± Auntie Rong, who was cooking, laughed, ¡°That¡¯s not true! Sir said he wanted to personally cook for his wife, so he came over to help.¡± Qin Yu frowned, feeling a little embarrassed that he had been exposed. He glared at Auntie Rong, who turned her head with a smile and pretended not to see him, continuing to cook. Qin Yu met Zhao Jinxing¡¯s teasing gaze and cleared his throat. ¡°I¡­ I¡¯ve never cooked before. I¡¯m just helping out.¡± Although his expression didn¡¯t change, Zhao Jinxing noticed that his ears were secretly turning red. With his status, he had definitely never entered the kitchen before. However, just because she said she was hungry, he personally went into the kitchen to cook for her. This action alone made Zhao Jinxing so touched her heart skipped a beat. ¡°I¡¯ll help too.¡± Zhao Jinxing quickly finished her apple, threw away the core, washed her hands, and walked over to Qin Yu. ¡°I¡¯ll help you wash the vegetables.¡± ¡°No need, the water is cold. Go watch TV in the living room.¡± ¡°No, I like washing vegetables.¡± Chapter 24 - This Is a Waste of Water Chapter 24 This Is a Waste of Water Zhao Jinxing moved to Qin Yu¡¯s side. One of them broke the vegetable leaves, while the other washed them in the sink. She would always accidentally touch his hand as they passed each other. At first, she was a little embarrassed, but not long after, Zhao Jinxing¡¯s mischievous nature began, and she began to deliberately misbehave. She either scratched his palm, or she deliberately dribbled two drops of water on the back of his hand. Qin Yu pretended not to notice and let her do whatever she wanted, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up. The two of them spent more than half an hour washing just a handful of vegetables. ¡°Aiya, how can you wash vegetables like this!¡± In the other room, Auntie Rong had already prepared three or four dishes. She was just about to start stir-frying the vegetables. When she came over to take a look, she saw that the tap was flowing with water. The two of them were not even done washing the vegetables. Instead, they were tickling each other. ¡°Forget it, forget it, go watch TV in the living room!¡± Auntie Rong chased the two out of the kitchen with some disdain. ¡°If you keep washing like this, the water bills for this month will soar, and you won¡¯t be able to eat this dish.¡± Zhao Jinxing hid behind Qin Yu and pushed him in front to get scolded. ¡°It¡¯s all his fault, he is the one who doesn¡¯t know how to wash vegetables.¡± Qin Yu rubbed his nose helplessly and said, ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s my fault.¡± Auntie Rong was speechless. ¡°Hurry up and leave, you guys are going to ruin my kitchen!¡± After getting chased out by Auntie Rong, they looked at each other and Zhao Jinxing burst out laughing ¡°Why are you cooking for me?¡± Zhao Jinxing asked with her hands behind her back. ¡°I didn¡¯t know what you like to eat, but thinking about what you ordered just now, I figured that they were your favourite dishes, so I wanted to learn how to cook them. That way, if you get hungry one day, I can make them for you.¡± CEO Qin was omnipotent in the business world. He was considered a legend by everyone, but he had no idea how to cook. In the end, Auntie Rong couldn¡¯t stand it anymore, so she sent him to wash the vegetables. She didn¡¯t expect that he couldn¡¯t even do that. Qin Yu was a little frustrated. ¡°I¡¯ll learn how as soon as possible.¡± He didn¡¯t want to get embarrassed again. ¡°Qin Yu, thank you.¡± Zhao Jinxing reached out and hugged him. This was the first time she had spoken to him in such a serious manner. He tightened his arms and pulled her into his embrace. Qin Yu touched her little head. ¡°We¡¯re husband and wife, there¡¯s no need to thank me.¡± ¡°Then¡­ I¡¯ll learn how to cook what you like. What do you like to eat?¡± Qin Yu thought for a moment. ¡°I don¡¯t have any favourite foods.¡± ¡°Then from now on, what I like to eat is what you like to eat,¡± Zhao Jinxing decided on her own. ¡°Okay!¡± Qin Yu agreed. Without the two troublemakers, Qin Yu and Zhao Jinxing, Auntie Rong quickly prepared the dishes. The sweet and sour ribs was perfectly sweet and sour, the boiled fish was fragrant and spicy, the crab powder tofu was fresh and tender, and the stir-fried vegetables were crisp and delicious. Even the tomato soup was delicious. Zhao Jinxing ate two bowls of rice before reluctantly putting down her bowl and chopsticks. ¡°Auntie Rong, you¡¯re amazing! It¡¯s been a long time since I¡¯ve eaten such delicious home-cooked food!¡± Auntie Rong smiled as she picked up a cup of freshly squeezed oranges and placed it in front of Zhao Jinxing. ¡°If you like it, I¡¯ll make it for you every day.¡± ¡°That¡¯s for sure!¡± Qin Yu was drinking tea after eating. He took a slow sip and said, ¡°Make a list of what you like to eat. I¡¯ll have Auntie Rong cook for you every day. Once she¡¯s done, I¡¯ll have the chauffeur send it to you.¡± ¡°Won¡¯t that be too much trouble?¡± Zhao Jinxing was a little tempted. The Zhenting Group building was located in the center of the city, and Tianshangshui was located in the northern suburbs of the city. One was in the south, and the other was in the north. Just the journey alone would take almost an hour, and all this was just to send her food? Chapter 25 - You Will Never Be Trouble Chapter 25 You Will Never Be Trouble Hearing Zhao Jinxing¡¯s words, Qin Yu heart ached for the girl in front of him. At this age, she was supposed to be the Princess of her family. Seeing her be so cautious not to trouble others, he was full of heartache. Her eyes were filled with anticipation and fear, and he wanted nothing more than to give her the whole world. Putting down the cup, Qin Yu held her hand and said gently, ¡°Xingxing, remember. You will never be trouble to me, ever.¡± ¡°Qin Yu¡­¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s was extremely touched. How did a few sentences from him make her want to cry? She was never like this before she met him. ¡°Silly girl!¡± Qin Yu got up, walked around the table, and walked up to Zhao Jinxing. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her long hair. His steady voice was filled with a comforting warmth. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be so strong in front of me. Let me spoil you and protect you.¡± Zhao Jinxing hugged him tightly and pouted after a long while. ¡°What if I do something bad? Will you still spoil me like this?¡± Qin Yu curled his lips. ¡°You won¡¯t do anything bad.¡± After a pause, he continued, ¡°Even if you do, you won¡¯t be the bad guy to me.¡± What he said was unreasonable and arrogant, but Zhao Jinxing was touched by his love! Who wouldn¡¯t want someone who would always stand by their side unconditionally, believe in them, and protect them! ¡°Qin Yu, did you know that Zhao Hong almost got into a fight with a few directors today? He wanted to threaten me with his resignation, but I was able to counter him.¡± Hearing this, Qin Yu smiled and gently patted her hair. ¡°You are so smart.¡± ¡°I even made Zhao Hong comply to personally nominate me as the new CEO of Zhenting Group. At the same time, I also asked him to marry Zhao Jinxiu to the Huo Family!¡± After saying this, Zhao Jinxing raised her head and stared at Qin Yu without moving. She anticipated his response. ¡°When my grandfather was alive, my family had a marriage agreement with the young master of the Huo family. However, when he got into a car accident, not only was he disfigured, but he was also crippled. Grandfather felt really sorry for me and couldn¡¯t bear to let me marry him. When Zhao Jinxiu wanted to officially become part of our family, Zhao Hong made an agreement with my grandfather.¡± ¡°My grandfather gave Zhao Jinxiu shares of Zhenting Group in exchange for her to marry into the Huo family in my place. After Zhao Jinxiu got her shares, she took advantage of my grandfather¡¯s death to go back on her word. She deliberately fell down the stairs and injured herself. She even accused me of pushing her and wanted to force me to marry the young master of the Huo family in her place!¡± At this moment, Qin Yu finally understood why Zhao Jinxing was willing to propose to someone she had only met once in the cemetery. His little girl had suffered so much injustice. ¡°Zhao Jinxiu took shares but went back on her word. She¡¯s horrible!¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s face was cold. ¡°Whatever. She trusts and idolizes her father the most, yet he betrayed her just because of shares. It¡¯s her karma!¡± ¡°Did you get hurt?¡± Qin Yu half-squatted down and looked up at Zhao Jinxing. ¡°What?¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t react for a moment. ¡°Did she hurt you when she pretended to fall down the stairs?¡± Qin Yu asked again. Zhao Jinxing pursed her lips and pulled up her right sleeve halfway. On her pale arm, three scratches were particularly eye-catching. It had already been a day, but the red scratches still hadn¡¯t disappeared. It was obvious how painful it was. Qin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a huge storm brewed in his dark eyes. He gently caressed the marks and asked with a pained expression, ¡°Does it still hurt?¡±. Chapter 26 - The Best in the World Chapter 26 The Best in the World Zhao Jinxing wanted to say that it didn¡¯t hurt, but she couldn¡¯t bring herself to say it. She pouted and said, ¡°It hurts.¡± Zhao Jinxiu had pretended to fall and used all her strength to grab Zhao Jinxing. Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s long and thin nails scratched her. If it weren¡¯t for her sleeve, her wounds would have been deeper. Zhao Hong¡¯s eyes were filled with anger as he imagined the scene in his mind. He even called her a bitch! Later, when Zhao Jinxing found out the truth about Zhao Jinxiu, and was forced to marry into the Huo family, her mind was filled with hatred for Zhao Hong¡¯s family of three. She was so filled with anger that she forgot about her injuries. Now, being gently caressed by Qin Yu and asked about her grievances, all her pain rushed to the surface. ¡°It hurts.¡± Qin Yu reached out and hugged her, kissing her on the forehead and comforted her. ¡°I won¡¯t allow anyone to hurt you again!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Zhao Jinxing sniffled and said with a sobbing tone, ¡°I fought back! Zhao Jinxiu is going to suffer now!¡± There was pride in her words, and the corners of Qin Yu¡¯s mouth curled up as he praised her, ¡°Yes, you¡¯re the best!¡± Zhao Jinxiu was going to regret everything she had done to Zhao Jinxing. Qin Yu tightened his grip on the person in his arms lovingly. He decided that he would never let anyone touch even a single hair on her head every again. After being hugged for a while, Zhao Jinxing felt much better. She gently pushed Qin Yu away and played with his shirt buttons, ¡°Qin Yu, do you think I¡¯m a bitch?¡± Qin Yu cupped her little face and said seriously, ¡°Xingxing, don¡¯t ever ask me that. You can do whatever you want, and I would do anything for you.¡± Qin Yu was like a Prince who came to save her. Zhao Jinxing immediately gave him a big bear hug. ¡°Qin Yu, you¡¯re so nice! No, you¡¯re the best! The best in the world!¡± ¡°Silly girl!¡± Qin Yu laughed. ¡°I¡¯m not silly!¡± Zhao Jinxing tilted her head and retorted, ¡°I¡¯ve found the best man in the world, I¡¯m the smartest!¡± ¡°Yes, you¡¯re the smartest, the best!¡± After a while, Zhao Jinxing still refused to let go of him, and Qin Yu didn¡¯t push her away either. He continued to hug her and asked, ¡°Do you want to take a nap?¡± Zhao Jinxing shook her head. She had a good night¡¯s sleep last night, so she wasn¡¯t sleepy at all today. was ¡°Do you have any plans for the afternoon?¡± ¡°Um¡­ No.¡± Originally, she thought that she would have to spend the whole day at the Zhenting Group building. However, since she was able to make Zhao Hong comply to her requests so quickly, she was able to quickly come home and had nothing to do in the afternoon. ¡°Then, I¡¯ll accompany you to the mall this afternoon and buy you some work clothes?¡± Zhao Jinxing thought about it. Most of her clothes were in Fenglinwan, and she didn¡¯t want to go there right now. She also didn¡¯t have any other work clothes here. The clothes that she was wearing right now were something that Qin Yu had asked someone to deliver to her last minute this morning. She also wanted to buy some other things. ¡°Sure!¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go upstairs and change first. We¡¯ll go together when I come down.¡± Qin Yu let go of Zhao Jinxing and stood up. ¡°If you¡¯re bored, go watch TV in the living room for a while.¡± ¡°Got it! Go ahead!¡± Qin Yu turned around and went upstairs. Back in the bedroom, he wasn¡¯t in a hurry to change. Instead, he took out his phone and called Yang Xian. ¡°Yo, busy man, what¡¯s up? Is your wife feeling unwell again?¡± Chapter 27 - Make Sure She Suffers Chapter 27 Make Sure She Suffers Qin Yu straightforwardly stated what he needed from him. ¡°Do me a favor.¡± Hearing the seriousness in Qin Yu¡¯s tone, Yang Xian immediately became serious. ¡°What¡¯s up?¡± ¡°There¡¯s a girl named Zhao Jinxiu. She¡¯s about the same age as Xingxing. She fell down the stairs and got injured. I don¡¯t know exactly which hospital she¡¯s staying in. Help me find out.¡± Qin Yu used to never associate himself with girls. However, not only did he secretly get married yesterday, but now he was also calling Yang Xian about another girl. Zhao Jinxiu and Zhao Jinxing? Could it be that they were sisters? ¡°Brother, what are you doing with these two girls? What does Zhao Jinxiu have to do with Zhao Jinxing? As a man, of course it is okay to date and flirt, but you¡¯re already married. Even though I don¡¯t like Zhao Jinxing, you¡¯ve only been married for two days. How can you already be messing around with other girls. That¡¯s not right!¡± Yang Xian could not help but say. With furrowed eyebrows, Qin Yu responded with, ¡°Shut up!¡± ¡°Zhao Jinxiu lied about Xingxing pushing her down the stairs and even scratched Xingxing¡¯s hand in the process,¡± he explained. ¡°Why are you involving me in this¡­¡± ¡°I want you to think of a way to teach her a lesson,¡± Qin Yu said coldly. ¡°If she wants to be hurt so bad, make sure she suffers!¡± Yang Xian clicked his tongue in wonder. He had never seen Qin Yu act this way for a girl before. ¡°Qin Yu, although we are brothers, I¡¯m still a doctor. Harming others is something I swore an oath against! What if this costs me my place in Heaven?¡± Qin Yu curved his lips. ¡°I¡¯ll invest another one billion into the second phase of the research institute¡¯s study.¡± ¡°Are you serious?¡± Yang Xian¡¯s jaw dropped. ¡°Is that enough to cover losing your place in Heaven?¡± He asked. ¡°Yes, yes, yes!¡± Yang Xian hurriedly nodded. Qin Yu said in a deep voice, ¡°Remember, make sure Zhao Jinxiu suffers!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I will!¡± After hanging up, Qin Yu went to the cloakroom to change. Just as he put on his shirt and was about to button it up, Zhao Jinxing ran upstairs in a hurry. ¡°Qin Yu, are you not done yet?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here.¡± Qin Yu buttoned up his shirt, took out a tie, and walked out. ¡°Let¡¯s go after I¡¯m done.¡± His slender fingers flew around and tied the tie up in a few seconds. Zhao Jinxing was fascinated by it and was eager to give it a try. ¡°I want to help you with your tie.¡± Qin Yu lowered his head and looked at the tie that he had already tied. Helplessly, he pulled the tie open and handed it to Zhao Jinxing. ¡°Oh, I don¡¯t know how.¡± Zhao Jinxing scratched her head in embarrassment. ¡°Teach me, I¡¯ll learn it quickly!¡± Qin Yu had no choice but to smooth out the tie. He then started explaining the steps one by one and demonstrating it to her in detail. After repeating this process four or five times, Zhao Jinxing finally nodded. ¡°I got it.¡± Then, she took the tie from Qin Yu¡¯s hand and waved at him, signaling for him to lower his head. Qin Yu lowered his head, and the tie in Zhao Jinxing¡¯s hand went around his neck and shoulders, beautifully tying a knot. ¡°Mhm, it looks better than mine,¡± Qin Yu praised. Zhao Jinxing snorted. ¡°No, it¡¯s not! Your¡¯s looks better.¡± She had actually already learned how to do it the first time she saw Qin Yu do it. She only said that she didn¡¯t know how to do it because she wanted to see Qin Yu do it again and again. ¡°But practice makes perfect. From now on, I¡¯ll help you with your tie every day. As time goes by, I¡¯ll definitely become better than you.¡± Chapter 28 - Shopping Chapter 28 Shopping Hearing this, Qin Yu was stunned. ¡°You¡¯re going to help me every day from now on?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Zhao Jinxing acted as if it was a matter of course. Seeing Qin Yu¡¯s dull reaction, she was a little unhappy. ¡°You don¡¯t want me to?¡± ¡°Of course I do!¡± Qin Yu smiled. ¡°Then let¡¯s make a deal. From now on, you¡¯ll help me tie my tie whenever I go out.¡± ¡°No problem!¡± Zhao Jinxing agreed immediately. Qin Yu put on his jacket and led Zhao Jinxing down the stairs. The two of them took the BMW to the largest mall in A City, Central Plaza. Although Qin Yu¡¯s car was quite normal, his license plate wasn¡¯t. After entering the underground parking garage of the central plaza, he parked in the VIP parking spot at level F2. They, then took a private elevator into the mall, avoiding the crowd of people. ¡°I¡¯ve been in A City for so many years, but I never knew there was a private elevator here.¡± Zhao Jinxing was surprised. It was also the first time she had seen a private parking space. The mall was called ¡°Central Plaza¡± because it was located in the center of A City. It was also the most crowded and bustling place in A City. Even on weekdays, the mall would be packed with people, and parking space would be hard to come by. Whenever Zhao Jinxing used to come, she could only park at level F1. Sometimes she would not be able to find a parking space and would even have to park outside the mall and walk over. ¡°The Qin family owns shares of this mall. Your license plate has been recorded into the system. Next time you come here, just park at level F2.¡± As he spoke, Qin Yu took out his phone and pressed a few buttons on it. Then, he said, ¡°I¡¯ve already sent your photo over. Just scan your face the next time you enter this elevator.¡± After a pause, he added, ¡°Not just Central Plaza, you can also do the same at Dongxin and Suda Yiwuli Square.¡± Zhao Jinxing was shocked at her status upgrade. Qin Yu led Zhao Jinxing straight to the women¡¯s clothing department on the third floor. ¡°What brand do you usually wear? Do you have any favorite clothes?¡± Qin Yu asked considerately. Zhao Jinxing thought for a moment and happened to see a C family¡¯s brand shop. She pointed at the shop sign and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go there and take a look first!¡± Qin Yu nodded and led her over. ¡°Hello, welcome. What can I do for you two?¡± The salesperson smiled sweetly. Qin Yu didn¡¯t know much about women¡¯s clothing, ¡°Bring out all the new clothes in your shop.¡± Seeing Qin Yu¡¯s demeanor, the saleswoman knew that he was some sort of a VIP, so she immediately followed up on what he asked for. She immediately called her colleagues over to bring out all new clothes from this season for Zhao Jinxing to choose from. Zhao Jinxing roughly looked through them and only ended up choosing three. She wasn¡¯t sure if she would look good in them, so she raised her head to look at Qin Yu, asking for his opinion. Qin Yu smiled, ¡°Try on all of them.¡± Zhao Jinxing nodded. She had to try them on before knowing if she liked them. ¡°Miss, please follow me.¡± The salesperson held the clothes and led Zhao Jinxing to the cloakroom to change. As Zhao Jinxing left, Qin Yu walked to the front desk and left the villa¡¯s address and phone number. He said, ¡°Send those three pieces to this address.¡± Then, he took out a black card from his wallet and handed it to the salesperson. The salesperson had never seen such a generous customer. Selling these three clothes would be enough for their monthly turnover. She quickly swiped his card. Chapter 29 - Cant Help Yourself Chapter 29 Can¡¯t Help Yourself ¡°Xiuxiu, come and take a look. This dress is so pretty.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to.¡± ¡°Little girl, why can¡¯t you just listen to me?¡± ¡°You¡¯re going to give me away to a cripple. Why should I ever listen to you!¡± ¡°What are you shouting for?¡± Qin Yu, who was sitting on the sofa and reading a magazine while waiting for Zhao Jinxing, heard a familiar voice. He raised his head slightly. As expected, it was Chen Ping and her daughter. The young girl standing next to Chen Ping was Zhao Jinxiu, the one who had framed Zhao Jinxing. ¡°Please try to understand your father. Now that Zhao Jinxing, that wretched girl, has inherited the shares, not only is she openly suppressing your father in the company, she even worked with outsiders to steal such a large amount of dowry from your father!¡± Speaking of Zhao Jinxing, Chen Ping was filled with anger! They had to give her a dowry when they did not even receive any betrothal gifts! She even used it against him in the meeting where the will was read. Because of her, Zhao Hong had to go to much trouble to get money! ¡°Just get married for your father¡¯s sake. After some time, when the Huo and Zhao families gain enough power, your father will definitely think of a way to get you a divorce!¡± Zhao Jinxiu pursed her lips tightly, still upset. Her father had said the same thing to her before, telling her to just endure and wait until he got Zhuang Zhenting¡¯s shares before forcing Zhao Jinxing to take over her place in the marriage. ¡°Look, your father even gave you his black card. He told you to buy clothes as you like and spend as much money as you want. He dotes on you so much.¡±. Zhao Jinxiu glanced at the black card and finally nodded. ¡°Fine!¡± Chen Ping¡¯s face lit up. She picked out a fruit-green dress before calling the salesperson over. ¡°This one, size S.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Madam, this dress has already been sold.¡± The salesperson picked out another one. ¡°Why don¡¯t you try this one?¡± ¡°Why should I try another one? I want this one!¡± Zhao Jinxiu was unhappy. Nothing was working out for her! ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Miss, this dress was really bought by someone else. They already paid for it.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t lie to me! If it was sold, what is it still doing here! You¡¯re just looking for an excuse to raise the price! What, do you think I can¡¯t afford it?¡± Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s temper flared up. She took the black card and threw it at the salesperson¡¯s face. ¡°Look carefully, this is a black card. I have more than enough to buy all the clothes in your shop!¡± ¡°Miss, please don¡¯t be angry.¡± The salesperson was used to seeing such people, so she wasn¡¯t angry, she still smiled and explained, ¡°The owner of this dress is trying on another piece of clothing in the fitting room. She paid in advance because she was worried that other people would take a fancy to the dress. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can ask her when she comes out. I¡¯m really sorry.¡± ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then I¡¯ll buy the dress from her. I¡¯ll pay double the price. That¡¯s fine, right?¡± ¡°Zhao Jinxiu, you just can¡¯t help yourself, huh!¡± Zhao Jinxing pushed open the door of the cloakroom and slowly walked out. ¡°I bought this dress. Why? Do you want to rob me again?¡± Chapter 30 - A Hundred Times, Can You Afford That? Chapter 30 A Hundred Times, Can You Afford That? ¡°Zhao Jinxing!¡± Chen Ping and her daughter cried out at the same time. ¡°It¡¯s me.¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled coldly. Her gaze swept back and forth between Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s bare arms. She smiled mockingly. ¡°Yo, weren¡¯t your bones broken? They healed so quickly!¡± When Zhao Jinxiu heard this, she immediately put her right hand behind her back and dodged her gaze. Yesterday, she made it seem like she was injured very badly, but in reality, she only got a small scratch on her arm. She just wanted to get Zhao Jinxing in trouble so that she would have take her place and marry into the Huo family. Unfortunately for her, things did not go as she had planned. Not only did Zhao Jinxing not marry into the Huo family as she wished, but she also found an even more powerful husband and even snatched away her grandfather¡¯s shares! God really favored Jinxing! Seeing this, Chen Ping quickly jumped out to explain, ¡°Actually, Jinxiu¡¯s injuries are very serious, but the marriage is inevitable. She had no choice but to leave the hospital and endure the pain to come here to pick a dress. After all, we can¡¯t embarrass our family in front of outsiders, right?¡± Zhao Jinxiu also had an aggrieved look on her face. She looked pitifully at Zhao Jinxing. ¡°Jinxing, you know that I¡¯ve only worn ordinary clothes since I was young. Daddy always bought you everything you wanted. You have so many clothes, and you¡¯ve never even worn all of them. Can¡¯t I just have this one?¡± Zhao Jinxiu, as usual was finding ways to embarrass Zhao Jinxing in public. Zhao Jinxing sneered. ¡°I¡¯ll give it to you! Sure!¡± Zhao Jinxing looked very generous. Chen Ping didn¡¯t expect Zhao Jinxing to agree to Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s request. She quickly reached out to take the clothes, but Zhao Jinxing raised her hand to stop her. ¡°Jinxing, what are you doing? Are you going back on your words?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not it.¡± Zhao Jinxing shook her head. ¡°It¡¯s just that I don¡¯t know you really well. There¡¯s no reason for me to give this to you for free.¡± Chen Ping frowned. This wretched girl, Zhao Jinxing, was really stingy! She had no choice but to play along. ¡°You¡¯re right. How much did you pay for this dress? I¡¯ll pay you.¡± ¡°I never said that I would sell it to you at its original price,¡± Zhao Jinxing mocked. Chen Ping gritted her teeth and forced a smile. ¡°Then how much do you want? Double the price is fine, right?¡± ¡°Of course¡­ Not!¡± Zhao Jinxing curled her lips. ¡°You are now the wife of CEO Zhao of Zhenting Group, and this is the young lady of the Zhao family. In the future, she will also be the young lady of the Huo family. With such a high status, double the price is certainly not enough, right?¡± ¡°Then how much do you want!¡± Zhao Jinxiu scolded. ¡°A hundred times.¡± Zhao Jinxing sneered. ¡°Can you afford it?¡± ¡°What! A hundred times!¡± Chen Ping¡¯s voice instantly rose. ¡°You¡¯re basically robbing us!¡± It was just some shabby gown. How could it be worth so much money! ¡°I¡¯m okay if you don¡¯t buy it.¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s smile was very gentle. ¡°If you can¡¯t afford such high-end goods, in the future, don¡¯t casually enter and exit such high-end stores. Otherwise, people will laugh at you!¡± ¡°Hey!¡± Chen Ping was angry and anxious. She glanced at the salespeople in the store who were all laughing at her and pointing at her. She was angry, but she couldn¡¯t do anything about Zhao Jinxing! If she said she would not buy the dress and left, she would be too embarrassed to ever come to this shop again, which was the top luxury store in A City! ¡°So? Are you going to buy it or not?¡± Zhao Jinxing asked with a smile. ¡°If you hesitate any longer, I¡¯m going to raise the price again!¡± Chapter 31 - Slap in the Face Chapter 31 Slap in the Face ¡°I¡¯ll buy it!¡± Chen Ping quickly said before Zhao Jinxing increased the price. ¡°Fine, a hundred times.¡± Chen Ping acted as if it was nothing to her, ¡°This little amount of money is just worth one of our usual trips to Paris for steak. We¡¯re willing to pay whatever amount since we want it.¡± Zhao Jinxing crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows slightly. ¡°Salesperson, pack this dress up for us.¡± ¡°Yes, Madam.¡± After the dress was packed, the salesperson handed the bag to Chen Ping and smiled politely. ¡°Madam, here.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Chen Ping took it while raising her chin arrogantly. ¡°How much is it? Here is my card!¡± ¡°Its original price was 1.28 million. After the negotiation between the two of you, it is now 128 million.¡± The salesperson smiled gently. ¡°Your black card has a limit of 30 million. Do you have any other cards?¡± ¡°What! 1 million!¡± Chen Ping¡¯s jaw dropped. She couldn¡¯t care less about her dignity. ¡°Are you crazy? What kind of clothes are so expensive?¡± She had thought that this gown was only a few tens of thousands, not more than 200,000. The salesperson¡¯s expression remained the same. It was as if she had encountered this type of situation before. She explained very professionally, ¡°This gown is made from silk, weaving, and embroidery. It is all hand-made. It took three months to make.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t give me that!¡± Zhao Jinxiu also chimed in. ¡°These are just marketing gimmicks. Do you have proof?¡± This dress was just made from two or three pieces of cloths, even if it was inlaid with gold foil, it wouldn¡¯t be worth a million! ¡°Madam, Miss, all of the clothes in this shop are authentic pieces. Their prices were set beforehand. If you have any objections to our prices, you are welcome to file a complaint.¡± ¡°You!¡± Chen Ping gritted her teeth. Because of the quarrel earlier, many people who were watching them gradually gathered in the shop. They were all gossiping about Chen Ping and Zhao Jinxiu. Chen Ping could not hold back her embarrassment. It would be embarrassing not to buy this dress because of its price, but if they spent 100 million on a dress, they would definitely get scolded by Zhao Hong! Moreover, they did not have enough money right now! ¡°Weren¡¯t you so arrogant just now? Why are you so quiet now?¡± Zhao Jinxing sneered. ¡°This amount of money is nothing to you. It¡¯s just worth a steak meal in Paris!¡± What Chen Ping said early was used against her! ¡°Hurry up and take out your card. The shop has other customers to serve. Do you think I¡¯m so free? To stay here and wait for you?¡± Chen Ping¡¯s eyes dodged Zhao Jinxing¡¯s as she stuttered, ¡°Today¡­ I don¡¯t have enough cards on me.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, Madam. We also accept cash checks or large transfer payments here.¡± Chen Ping was speechless. ¡°What, you can¡¯t afford it?¡± Zhao Jinxing laughed coldly. ¡°Weren¡¯t you being very arrogant just now? Why aren¡¯t you saying anything now? Chen Ping, there are some things that you can¡¯t snatch away just because you want to!¡± Chapter 32 - Swear, Ill Wait Chapter 32 Swear, I¡¯ll Wait Chen Ping¡¯s expression changed. ¡°What do you mean by that?¡± For some reason, she felt that there was more to Zhao Jinxing¡¯s words than just the clothes. Could it be that she knew? No, that was impossible! Other than her and Zhao Hong, no one else knew, not even Zhao Jinxiu. How could she possibly know! ¡°What do you mean?¡± Zhao Jinxing stared at Chen Ping Chen Ping¡¯s gradually relaxed after realizing that there was no way that Zhao Jinxing knew. Looking at Zhao Jinxing¡¯s aggressiveness, she glanced at the growing crowd outside the shop, steeled her heart and pinched her thigh hard. Tears instantly flowed out. ¡°Jinxing, I know that you hate us and think that we stole your father away from you. No matter how you treat us, I won¡¯t be angry because¡­ I see you as my own daughter.¡± Chen Ping was delicate and pitiful. She said as she wiped away her tears, ¡°For so many years, I worked extremely hard in the Zhao family and never complained. No matter how badly you treated Jinxiu, beat her and scolded her, I always told Jinxiu to give in to you. Because you lost your mother at such a young age, we pitied you. Your father also felt sorry for you. No matter how hard and tired he was, he never mentioned about finding another companion.¡± ¡°But now you have grown up, and your father is old. We¡­ We just want to be together. Why can¡¯t you understand us?¡± Seeing Chen Ping cry, Zhao Jinxiu immediately started crying with her, ¡°Jinxing, I¡¯ve said it before. I won¡¯t fight with you over the family property. Everything in the group is yours. I just want us to be a family. I beg you, please don¡¯t quarrel with Father anymore, okay?¡± ¡°Yes, you¡¯re right. I just can¡¯t tolerate you.¡± Zhao Jinxing was not angry. She openly agreed with their accusations. ¡°Zhenting Group was my grandfather¡¯s. The Fenglinwan villa was my mother¡¯s dowry. None of you have the right to take them!¡± ¡°Jinxing, as I¡¯ve said, I¡¯ve never thought of competing with you! If you want Zhenting Group or the villa, you can take them. As long as we have food on the table and a roof above our heads, I don¡¯t want anything else. Really! I swear to the Heavens.¡± Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s face was full of confidence. ¡°Okay!¡± Zhao Jinxing was interested in playing along with Zhao Jinxiu. ¡°Since there are so many witnesses now. Swear on it!¡± Zhao Jinxiu was stunned. ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°As long as you swear to never take a single cent from Zhenting Group, I¡¯ll accept you as my sister and go home with you and we can be a family.¡± As she spoke, Zhao Jinxing took out her phone and started a voice recording, aiming the phone¡¯s microphone at Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s face. ¡°Swear on it! I¡¯m recording it for you! Once you¡¯re done, I¡¯ll send it to the lawyer and have him notarize it.¡± Zhao Jinxiu expression was hesitant and she didn¡¯t dare to repeat herself. Zhao Jinxing¡¯s expression changed. She put away her phone and strode over to Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s side, grabbing her arm, she leaned forward. ¡°You don¡¯t dare to record this down? You keep saying that you don¡¯t want to fight with me over the family properties, Please! The family properties belong to me. You don¡¯t even share the same blood as me. What right do you have to fight with me for them!¡± Chapter 33 - Beg Me Chapter 33 Beg Me Meeting Zhao Jinxing ruthless gaze, Zhao Jinxiu felt afraid for the first time in her life. How did Zhao Jinxing gain so much confidence in just two days! How could she embarrass and argue with them in public! ¡°You don¡¯t dare to swear anymore? Ha!¡± Zhao Jinxing shook off her arm and pulled out a tissue with some disgust. She carefully wiped her hand, as if she had touched something disgusting. It was simply heartbreaking! Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s face was pale, and she was so angry that she couldn¡¯t help but tremble, tears welling up in her eyes. ¡°Jinxing, I¡¯ve always let you have your way since we were young. I¡¯ve loved you as if you were my own sister. How can you treat me like this?¡± Your own sister? Zhao Jinxing¡¯s lips curled up sarcastically. Seeing Zhao Jinxing¡¯s cold smile, Zhao Jinxiu cried even more sadly, ¡°It is because of you that I am engaged to the young master of the Huo family. When he got into the car accident, his face was disfigured and his body was also crippled. Because you detested marrying such a man, I had to replace you, sacrificing my life¡¯s happiness.¡± ¡°Haven¡¯t I treated you well enough? I just¡­ I just want us to be a family and support each other. After all, we are legally family! Why can¡¯t you just be kind to me? Why must you insult me like this!¡± Zhao Jinxing narrowed her eyes. Qin Yu, who was sitting on the lounge chair, saw this and was about to get up to deal with the two of them when he met Zhao Jinxing¡¯s gaze. She smiled and shook her head, indicating for him not to move. Qin Yu frowned. Although he wasn¡¯t very happy, he listened to her. With light steps, Zhao Jinxing slowly walked in front of Zhao Jinxiu. She extended her index finger and gently lifted her chin. Seeing that her face was covered in tears and her eyes were red, she clicked her tongue and shook her head. ¡°Unfortunately, I¡¯m not Zhao Hong. I know you¡¯re just acting!¡± ¡°Zhao Jinxing!¡± Chen Ping rushed up to protect her daughter. ¡°Whenever you used to make a fuss, I would always give in to you. However, I¡¯m still your elder. You have wronged us today and I cannot accept that.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Zhao Jinxing was not afraid of her threat. ¡°But first, can you pay the money you owe me first? The salesperson has been waiting here for a long time.¡± Chen Ping was speechless. ¡°You¡¯ve cried, you¡¯ve made a scene, and you¡¯ve portrayed me as an evil person. Are you done? Now, pay the bill and scram!¡± Zhao Jinxiu gritted her teeth in anger and looked at Chen Ping. Where was she going to find so much money! ¡°The money¡­¡± Chen Ping braced herself and asked, ¡°Can we pay in installments?¡± ¡°What did you say?¡± Zhao Jinxing frowned as if she hadn¡¯t heard her. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, can you repeat what you said? I didn¡¯t hear you clearly.¡± Chen Ping gritted her teeth and repeated herself, ¡°We don¡¯t have that much money right now. Can we pay in installments?¡± ¡°Sure.¡± Zhao Jinxing said. ¡°Beg me!¡± Chapter 34 - You Could Be More Convincing Next Time Chapter 34 You Could Be More Convincing Next Time Zhao Jinxiu was furious when she heard this. ¡°Zhao Jinxing, you¡¯re too much!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve always been like this. You didn¡¯t know?¡± Zhao Jinxing sneered. ¡°Either you give me the money now, or kneel down and beg me. Kowtow and apologize, and I¡¯ll give you a few more days.¡± Kneel? Chen Ping¡¯s face turned pale. Zhao Jinxing was younger than her. Kneeing down to her in public would be way too embarrasssing. ¡°Mom!¡± Zhao Jinxiu cried. ¡°Mom, let¡¯s go beg Dad. He will definitely help us!¡± Chen Ping clenched her fists. No one knew better than her what kind of person Zhao Hong was. If it had been anything else, Zhao Hong would have helped them. However, a hundred million was a lot of money. Zhao Hong would never have given in! Closing her eyes tightly, Chen Ping let out a long sigh of relief. Then, she slowly opened her eyes and tidied up her clothes. With large strides, she walked in front of Zhao Jinxing. With a plop, she knelt down cleanly. ¡°Mother!¡± Zhao Jinxiu cried out. She ran quickly but could not pull Chen Ping up. Chen Ping raised her head and stared straight at Zhao Jinxing. ¡°Jinxing, it¡¯s all my fault. Please accept our request.¡± Zhao Jinxing stared at Chen Ping. Grandfather, mother, did you see that? That was only the start of my revenge. ¡°Zhao Jinxing! My mother has already knelt down in front of you. What more do you want?¡± Zhao Jinxing glanced at her with disdain and said faintly, ¡°I only said that I would give you a few more days. I didn¡¯t say that I would waive the hundred million.¡± ¡°Zhao Jinxing! You¡¯re too much!¡± Just as Zhao Jinxiu started approaching Zhao Jinxing, Qin Yu quickly ran over, grabbed her wrist and squeezed it tightly. His expression was cold. ¡°If you dare to touch her, you can say goodbye to your arm!¡± ¡°Let go! You¡­¡± Just as Zhao Jinxiu said this, Qin Yu exerted some force on her wrist and instantly twisted her over. With a crack, Zhao Jinxiu rolled on the ground in pain. ¡°Jinxiu!¡± Chen Ping rushed over and held her up. ¡°Are you okay?¡± ¡°Mom!¡± This time, Zhao Jinxiu cried real tears. ¡°My wrist¡­ my wrist seems to be broken¡­¡± Unlike the last time when she fell down the stairs, Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s face was pale from the pain. Bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down her face. Her eyeliner was all messed up and she looked like a ghost from hell. ¡°Zhao Jinxing, how can you go back on your word!¡± Chen Ping pointed at Zhao Jinxing and cursed. ¡°What is wrong with you? Do you really think that a single kneel is worth more than a hundred million?¡± Zhao Jinxing said unhappily, ¡°As for Jinxiu, she brought this upon herself! Doesn¡¯t she like pretending to be injured? Now that her arm is really broken, she needs to get medicine and casts. Next time, when she wants to pretend again, she will have more realistic props!¡± ¡°You!¡± Chen Ping glared at Zhao Jinxing and then looked at Qin Yu, who was not to be trifled with. In the end, she could only give up and help Zhao Jinxiu walk out. ¡°Wait!¡± Chapter 35 - Lets Go, Ill Buy You Some Clothes Chapter 35 Let¡¯s Go, I¡¯ll Buy You Some Clothes Zhao Jinxing stopped Chen Ping and took the black card from her hand. She handed it to the salesperson at the side. ¡°Go, get my 30 million for me.¡± After saying this, she looked at Chen Ping again. ¡°Actors like you and your daughter don¡¯t have any integrity at all. You two should pay me a deposit first. If I let you two leave without paying me anything, you two might run away.¡± Chen Ping was shaken with anger. She was helpless. She could only watch as the salesperson took her black card and swept it across the POS machine and pulled it out. 30 million gone just like that¡­ After swiping the card, the salesperson returned the black card to Chen Ping. She grabbed Zhao Jinxiu, who was about to faint from the pain, and ran straight to the door. ¡°Wait!¡± Zhao Jinxing called out to them. Chen Ping shouted, ¡°What are you trying to do this time!¡± We¡¯ve already been beaten, scolded, and our money swiped away. Wasn¡¯t that enough! Zhao Jinxing took out two 100 yuan bills from her wallet and gently tossed them into Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s arms. ¡°This is for your cab and registration at the doctor¡¯s. I¡¯ve always felt bad seeing old, weak, sick, and disabled people. Just think of it as me doing a good deed.¡± Chen Ping glared at Zhao Jinxing. She desperately wanted to beat Zhao Jinxing up. However, right now¡­ She could only endure it! Chen Ping and her daughter fled in panic. The surrounding onlookers also dispersed. The salesperson packed up the clothes and handed the money transfer cheque to Zhao Jinxing. With a slight smile, she said, ¡°Welcome back.¡± Zhao Jinxing only took the cheque. She didn¡¯t take the clothes. ¡°They¡¯re yours.¡± She changed into back into the clothes she came with and handed those that she had bought to the salesperson. ¡°You can sell or threw them away. I don¡¯t want to see these clothes again.¡± The salesperson froze, then nodded with a smile. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take care of them.¡± Zhao Jinxing smiled as she walked up and held Qin Yu¡¯s arm. She waved the cheque in her hand at him. ¡°It¡¯s only been one afternoon, and I¡¯ve already earned you 30 million! I¡¯m doing well, right?¡± ¡°Mhm, great!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go, I¡¯ll buy you some clothes!¡± Zhao Jinxing was in a great mood as she dragged Qin Yu to the men¡¯s wear section on the fourth floor. Zhao Jinxing swept through the men¡¯s wear section on the fourth floor and spent all of the 30 million. Qin Yu looked at the pile of paper bags on the floor and helplessly called Uncle Jiang and asked him to bring two cars over to take these things home. The two of them went to the parking lot and got into the car. Qin Yu looked at Zhao Jinxing apologetically. ¡°We came here to buy you clothes, but in the end, not only did you not get any clothes, but you even ran into people who make you unhappy.¡± ¡°What does that have to do with you? You didn¡¯t know we¡¯d run into those two flies!¡± Zhao Jinxing pinched his palm and comforted him. ¡°Also, on the contrary, I¡¯m very happy!¡± ¡°Happy?¡± Qin Yu didn¡¯t understand. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Zhao Jinxing was beaming with joy. ¡°In the past, I never dared to act pitiful like Zhao Jinxiu, so every time I felt wronged, I would suck it up. Now, no matter what Zhao Jinxiu says, I don¡¯t care. I will fight with her if I need to. As long as I¡¯m happy, I don¡¯t care what other people think!¡± Qin Yu caressed her head. ¡°You did the right thing. We only reason with people who are reasonable.¡± ¡°Mhm!¡± Zhao Jinxing fiercely nodded. ¡°Let¡¯s go to another mall and take a look around!¡± Chapter 36 - Not Enough If We Have a Daughter Chapter 36 Not Enough If We Have a Daughter The two of them didn¡¯t go home until it was dark. This was the first time Qin Yu saw how crazy women became when shopping. ¡°Are you shocked?¡± Zhao Jinxing asked him as soon as they got in the car. The back of the car was filled with shopping bags, which were actually the remaining ones after Uncle Jiang had brought back the rest of the shopping bags in 2 other cars. Qin Yu smiled and shook his head. ¡°Next time, I¡¯ll get the store to send the clothes directly to our house. That way, you can shop more comfortably.¡± Previously, Qin Yu didn¡¯t know what kind of clothes Zhao Jinxing liked, thus he suggested for them to go to the mall together. Now that he knew what she liked, in the future, when the store had new items, she could just look at their catalog and get the store to send the clothes that she wants home. ¡°Don¡¯t you think I spend too much money?¡± Zhao Jinxing asked with her eyes wide open. Qin Yu said matter-of-factly, ¡°Isn¡¯t the purpose of earning money to spend it? You can spend as much as you want.¡± Zhao Jinxing felt touched. There was a saying, ¡°A man who doesn¡¯t spend money on you definitely does not love you, but a man who is willing to spend money on you must love you very much.¡±. When her grandfather was still alive, he couldn¡¯t stand Zhao Jinxing¡¯s extravagance and would often scold her. However, after every scolding, he would secretly increase Zhao Jinxing¡¯s credit card limit by a notch. As for Zhao Hong¡­ He kept mentioning about how he had raised her like a little princess when in reality, he was rarely ever present. He had also never bought her anything expensive. Thinking back, she realized that Zhao Hong had never acted like her father. Unfortunately, her grandfather was no longer around. In this world, she no longer had anyone she considered family. Seeing that Zhao Jinxing was feeling a little down, Qin Yu reached out with a hand and grabbed her small hand, holding it tightly in his palm. ¡°I¡¯ve contacted an interior designer who will be visiting our house in the next two days. What are your thoughts?¡± ¡°Hmm? You want to renovate the house?¡± ¡°Yes. I¡¯m planning to open up the third floor. Half of it will be made into a cloakroom and the other half will be made into a jewelry storage room.¡± Qin Yu remembered what Zhao Hong said that night at Fenglinwan about how extravagantly she lived. The entire floor¡­ would be used as a closet for her! Zhao Jinxing was both surprised and happy. Tianshangshui was much bigger than Fenglinwan. The third floor¡­ was more than 300 square meters! ¡°Are you serious?¡± Zhao Jinxing still couldn¡¯t believe it. ¡°Of course.¡± Qin Yu smiled. ¡°If it gets too full in the future, we can open up the second floor as well. We¡¯ll move to the back.¡± Then, Qin Yu explained, ¡°The eighth unit at the back is also under my name, but I don¡¯t live there much.¡± Zhao Jinxing was stunned. ¡°Even if I were to wear a different outfit everyday, everything would be able to fit in the closet on the first floor. It¡¯s impossible that I will run out of space!¡± ¡°If our daughter next time loves clothes and jewelry like you, we will run out of space,¡± Qin Yu said in all seriousness. Daughter¡­ Zhao Jinxing¡¯s face turned red and she lowered her head. ¡°Am I wrong?¡± Qin Yu continued to tease her. ¡°Hmph!¡± Zhao Jinxing glared at him and turned her head away, refusing to look at him. She could not help but imagine how their daughter would look like¡­ she would definitely be very beautiful! She secretly started looking forward to them having a daughter one day! Chapter 37 - Being Your Wife Chapter 37 Being Your Wife After returning to Tianshangshui, Zhao Jinxing unbuckled her seatbelt and got ready to get out of the car. Suddenly, Qin Yu¡¯s phone rang. He picked it up, but immediately, his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked at Zhao Jinxing with a hesitant expression. Zhao Jinxing thought it was company-related, so she pointed at the villa, then opened the car door and got out. ¡°You¡¯re back.¡± Auntie Rong heard the door open and poked her head out of the kitchen. ¡°The food will be ready soon, go wash your hands first. When Sir comes back, you can start eating.¡± ¡°Wow! It smells so good! Auntie Rong, what did you make?¡± ¡°It¡¯s definitely something you will like.¡± Zhao Jinxing had been walking around the entire afternoon and her stomach was growling with hunger. She quickly went to the bathroom to wash her hands and then went to the kitchen to help with the food. Not long after, Qin Yu came in. Zhao Jinxing casually asked, ¡°Are you done?¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Seeing that Qin Yu didn¡¯t seem to want to talk about what had happened, Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t ask any further, ¡°Let¡¯s eat!¡± Qin Yu washed his hands and returned to the dining room. The two of them quietly ate dinner. After she was done, Zhao Jinxing went to her room to take a shower, while Qin Yu went to the study as usual to deal with some matters, After coming out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe, Zhao Jinxing opened her closet to look for clothes for her to wear to work the next day. She suddenly recalled that she had bought a lot of clothes for Qin Yu today, Then, she left her room and went downstairs to look for Auntie Rong. After asking where she had put the clothes, she asked her for a hanging ironing machine. ¡°Madam, why don¡¯t I do it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, I can do it.¡± Zhao Jinxing hung up the shirts and held up the hanging ironing machine. She carefully ironed the clothes one by one with the assistance of Auntie Rong. Soon, Qin Yu came out of the study and was about to go downstairs to get a glass of water. As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Zhao Jinxing ironing his clothes. The little girl was holding up the hanging ironing machine. Her face was red and there were a few drops of sweat on her forehead, but she didn¡¯t care at all. Instead, she carefully ironed his clothes. ¡°Sir.¡± Auntie Rong noticed Qin Yu and greeted him with a smile. Hearing this, Zhao Jinxing also turned around. ¡°You¡¯re done!¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Qin Yu put down the cup in his hand, took the ironing machine from Zhao Jinxing¡¯s hand, and hung it back up. ¡°Let Auntie Rong and the others do these things. Aren¡¯t you tired?¡± He held Zhao Jinxing¡¯s right hand and gently rubbed it. ¡°I¡¯m not tired.¡± Zhao Jinxing shook her head and looked at him in embarrassment. ¡°I¡­ I just want to help you with things. I¡¯m your wife!¡± Qin Yu¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He caressed her face and gently rubbed it, ¡°You really like being my wife?¡± Zhao Jinxing immediately nodded. ¡°But¡­ That¡¯s not all a wife has to do, understand?¡± Zhao Jinxing frowned, ¡°Then what else is there? Cooking? I¡¯m learning!¡± Looking into her pure and bright ryes, Qin Yu took a deep breath and suppressed his sexual desire. She was still young, so he had to take it slow. He didn¡¯t want to scare her. ¡°You¡¯ll know in the future.¡± Qin Yu rubbed her little face. ¡°It¡¯s getting late, go back to your room and rest. You have work tomorrow, okay?¡± Chapter 38 - Truly Unrepentant Chapter 38 Truly Unrepentant Zhao Jinxing was confused. She didn¡¯t understand what Qin Yu meant. Suddenly, she recalled the phone call he had received in the car and asked worriedly, ¡°Did something happen?¡± Qin Yu laughed and shook his head. ¡°No, go rest!¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t believe him. The more he shrugged it off, the more it meant that something was wrong. ¡°We¡¯re husband and wife! When I was in trouble, you helped me Now that you¡¯re in trouble, I want to help you!¡± Qin Yu looked at her and sighed helplessly. ¡°You! I really don¡¯t know what to do with you.¡± ¡°Something must really be wrong!¡± Zhao Jinxing panicked and subconsciously grabbed his hand. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Qin Yu looked at her lovingly, then grabbed her waist and held her tightly in his arms. He pressed her close to his ear and whispered into her ear. ¡°I want a daughter as cute as you.¡± A daughter? This was the second time Qin Yu had brought up them having a daughter today. Wait! A daughter! To have a daughter, they had to¡­ Zhao Jinxing¡¯s face immediately turned red, and she hugged Qin Yu tightly, burying her head in his chest. Damn it! She shouldn¡¯t have asked. ¡°Are you still going to help me? Hmm? Mrs. Qin?¡± Qin Yu asked in a deep voice, his hoarse voice full of charm. ¡°Stop talking!¡± Zhao Jinxing was both anxious and embarrassed. Auntie Rong was still in the living room. Their topic of conversation should have only been talked about in private. It was so embarrassing! ¡°Hehe!¡± Qin Yu couldn¡¯t help but laugh. He reached out and pulled Zhao Jinxing into his arms. ¡°Auntie Rong left a long time ago, there¡¯s only the two of us here.¡± Hearing this, Zhao Jinxing quietly poked her head out. She looked around the living room. When she couldn¡¯t see Auntie Rong, she finally relaxed. Thankfully she did not embarrass herself in front of Auntie Rong. ¡°All you do is tease me!¡± Being alone with Qin Yu, Zhao Jinxing became more daring. She impatiently punched his chest, ¡°You know that I¡¯m just worried about you, yet you still tease me!¡± ¡°Okay, sorry,¡± Qin Yu said immediately, ¡°Sorry for wanting a daughter so much.¡± Zhao Jinxing¡¯s face reddened even more. ¡°Stop! I¡¯m not talking to you anymore!¡± ¡°Okay, okay, okay, I¡¯ll stop.¡± Seeing Zhao Jinxing¡¯s red face, Qin Yu gently pulled her into his arms. His chin was pressed against her hair, and he smelled her freshly washed hair. ¡°So, is there really nothing going on?¡± Zhao Jinxing asked softly. The smile on Qin Yu¡¯s face faded a little, and he hesitated whether or not he should tell her. However, how could he hide something like this from her? She would be sad if she had to find out from other people. ¡°Well there is a small matter.¡± As expected! Zhao Jinxing looked up from his arms. ¡°Did Zhao Jinxiu and her mother do something again?¡± Qin Yu nodded and let go of Zhao Jinxing. He took out his phone and played a video for her to see. The video was of Zhao Jinxing and Chen Ping arguing in the clothing store that afternoon. However, Zhao Jinxing was edited to look aggressive, and like she had extorted a lot of money from Chen Ping for a piece of clothing. She was even made to look like she had forced the poor and innocent mother to kneel down and beg her for mercy and even arrogantly broke Zhao Jinxiu¡¯s arm. ¡°They just won¡¯t give it a rest, huh!¡± Chapter 39 - Then Help The Chapter 39 Then Help The ¡°This video was posted by an Internet celebrity, so it quickly spread across the Internet.¡± That night, Qin Yu¡¯s assistant found out about this and immediately called him. He had been dealing with this issue ever since he came back. ¡°Although I¡¯ve already asked someone to take it down, it has already caused quite a stir on the Internet.¡± After all, Zhao Jinxing was well known, and Zhenting Group was also well-known in the city. Moreover, she was about to inherit a large sum of money and become the CEO of the company. Whatever she did would affect the company¡¯s reputation. Many netizens who didn¡¯t know the truth of what had happened went to the official Weibo page of the company and asked for an official statement regarding the controversy. They also said that a person with no moral values like her wasn¡¯t worthy of leading a company. Zhao Jinxing watched the video three times and finally let out a sigh of relief when she saw that Qin Yu didn¡¯t appear on it. ¡°Thankfully you¡¯re not in the video.¡± Qin Yu was stunned. Even at a time like this, Zhao Jinxing was concerned about him. ¡°I¡¯m not important, what¡¯s important is your reputation.¡± ¡°Of course you¡¯re important!¡± Zhao Jinxing retorted unhappily. ¡°You¡¯re the CEO of the Qin Corporation, and there are more than a hundred thousand employees who depend on you for their livelihood. If the stock price of the Qin corporation drops, I wonder how many people will go bankrupt!¡± Qin Yu squeezed her hand, ¡°How do you want to deal with this?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need to deal with it.¡± Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t seem to care. Seeing Qin Yu frown and express his disapproval, she smiled and explained, ¡°It¡¯s obvious who made this video. I¡¯m also sure that Zhao Hong doesn¡¯t know about this. If he did, he wouldn¡¯t have agreed to post this video.¡± ¡°Oh? How are you so sure?¡± ¡°Think about it, if this video gets out, nosy netizens might not like me and point fingers at me. They will also try to find out who the mother and daughter pair in the video are.¡± ¡°When they do, they will also find out that Zhao Hong remarried less than a month after my grandfather passed away and married a second-time married woman with a daughter. Moreover, before they got married, the woman had been working as a nurse for our family for nearly ten years.¡± ¡°A rich man who lost his wife, a gentle and pitiful widow nurse, a burdensome daughter similar to my age, and a huge inheritance. Doesn¡¯t that sound so dramatic?¡± At that time, the argument between Zhao Jinxing and Zhao Jinxiu would no longer be the focus of their discussion. ¡°The matter between Zhao Hong and Chen Ping could not be exposed. Therefore, the person who is most anxious right now is not me, but Zhao Hong!¡± All these years, he had been showing an image of himself as a good man who loved his wife deeply and treated his daughter like a treasure. Why would he want people to know that he could not wait to remarry after his father-in-law died and that he was competing with his own daughter for the family assets? ¡°Then, should we just ignore it?¡± Qin Yu felt a little disappointed. ¡°Hmm¡­ actually, maybe we can add fuel to the fire.¡± Zhao Jinxing tilted her little head. Qin Yu looked at her and knew that she must have come up with some evil idea. ¡°What do you want to do?¡± Zhao Jinxing began to keep him guessing. ¡°Are you going to the Huo Corporation¡¯s annual dinner?¡± Not many people knew that Qin Yu was in A City. So, the Huo family naturally did not send him an invitation to the dinner. However, if he wanted to go, the Huo family would be more than happy to invite him. ¡°Can you bring me along?¡± Chapter 40 - The Mysterious Young Master of the Huo Family Chapter 40 The Mysterious Young Master of the Huo Family ¡°Haven¡¯t you always hated the Huo Family?¡± Qin Yu didn¡¯t know the Huo family very well. He had also always thought that Zhao Jinxing hated them even more. After all, she was almost forced to marry into their family. ¡°I was actually willing to marry into the Huo family as per the marriage arrangement. Zhenting Group was my grandfather¡¯s life¡¯s work. Even though the young master of the Huo family was crippled, I was still willing to marry him.¡± The problem was that Zhao Jinxiu had proposed a deal and said that she would marry in Zhao Jinxing¡¯s place, but she went back on her word after receiving the shares. This was what made Zhao Jinxing so unhappy! Qin Yu¡¯s body stiffened. For the sake of Zhenting Group, she would even marry a cripple? Then, was she with him only to protect Zhenting Group? ¡°Oh right, Qin Yu, can you help me find someone to edit this video, and focus on what Zhao Jinxiu said?¡± Qin Yu didn¡¯t respond. Zhao Jinxiu turned around and saw Qin Yu sitting there in a daze. She went over and waved in front of him. ¡°Qin Yu, Qin Yu?¡± ¡°Huh? What did you say?¡± Qin Yu came back to his senses. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Zhao Jinxing looked at him worriedly. ¡°Are you tired?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± The corners of Qin Yu¡¯s mouth twitched. ¡°What do you want me to do for you?¡± Seeing his calm expression, Zhao Jinxing didn¡¯t think too much about it and continued on with what she was talking about earlier. ¡°I said, can you get someone to edit the video again and focus on magnifying this part?''¡± Zhao Jinxing showed the part of the video where Zhao Jinxiu spoke. ¡°This is the part where the Huo family was mentioned.¡± Qin Yu glanced at it and frowned slightly. ¡°You want to get the Huo family¡¯s attention so that they will pressure Zhao Hong to deal with Zhao Jinxiu?¡± ¡°Mhm!¡± Zhao Jinxing raised her chin proudly. ¡°Zhao Jinxiu kept saying that she was marrying into the Huo family for me, and that it was so unfair for her. If the Huo family hears about this, how would they feel seeing their child being publicly despised?¡± ¡°Moreover, Zhao Jinxiu has Zhenting Group shares. This is irrefutable evidence. Anyone with a discerning eye can see why she was willing to compromise. Since Zhao Jinxiu took advantage of the Huo family¡¯s pain for her own benefit, she should suffer the consequences of being found out by the Huo Family!¡± Qin Yu pondered for a moment. ¡°The Huo family is not an ordinary family. If we look for someone to edit the video again, people will know it was us. When that happens, we will only invite trouble.¡± Zhao Jinxing did not know the Huo family well, but she had heard many rumors about them on various occasions over the years. It was said that the young master was originally the most favored heir of the Huo family, and that the car accident was done by someone who worked for the the Huo family. Later, when the murderer was found, the man¡¯s limbs were broken and he was thrown into the deep sea as fish food. Not even his bones were left and even his family was not spared. The young master of the Huo family lived in seclusion from then on. No one had ever seen him again. Occasionally, there were rumors that he had become violent and killed many of the servants who served him. It was precisely because of these rumors that Zhuang Zhenting had been reluctant to let his granddaughter marry him. He even risked his reputation to break off the engagement with the Huo family. However, Zhao Hong had suggested that Zhao Jinxiu could replace her, and Zhao Jinxiu also repeatedly said that she was willing to sacrifice her love life for Zhenting Group. Zhuang Zhenting thought it over and over again before finally agreeing. He had even taken the initiative to offer Zhao Jinxiu the shares of the group as compensation. ¡°So we¡¯re just going to let it go like this?¡± Zhao Jinxing was a little unwilling. Qin Yu rubbed her head. ¡°Of course not.¡± He changed his tone, ¡°But Mrs. Qin, there¡¯s something I want to ask you as well.¡± ¡°What¡­ do you think of me?¡±
