Qin Xiang sensed that something was wrong.

She called Master Duan a month or two ago, and his secretary always answered her, saying that Master Duan was busy.

After that, Third Master Duan did not call back.

She also made several phone calls to Aunt Yu, wanting Aunt Yu to come to the Duan family to see her and to stay at Aunt Yu's place, but Aunt Yu refused each time.

What exactly happened?

Could it be that Master Duan and Aunt Yu know she isn't their biological daughter?

Impossible, they have no evidence.

So what exactly happened?

She returned to the Duan family.

"grandmother."

Grandma Duan nodded in response to Qin Xiang's words.

"You're so pregnant, why did you come back in such hot weather?"

Hearing what Grandma Duan said, Qin Xiang smiled and replied.

"The child is doing well, so please don't worry."

As she spoke, her eyes remained fixed on Grandma Duan, trying to gauge the situation from her reaction.

Grandma Duan treated her the same as before.

How's business lately?

Hearing what Grandma Duan said, Qin Xiang smiled and replied.

"You did a great job. I gave my aunt and second aunt a bonus the other day..."

Grandma Duan had heard about this from her eldest and second sons' wives; their previous investments had all been recouped, and they had even made an extra profit.

The eldest son's wife and her husband wanted to invest more, but she didn't let them invest any more.

Because she felt that you shouldn't put all your money in one basket.

Moreover, it is said that Fang Yu and his group have lost to Jiang Yue and Qin Li in several encounters.

She was afraid that she would lose all the money she invested.

Qin Xiang came here this time to inquire about investment matters.

If the Duan family were to contribute several hundred thousand or even a million yuan, she would have more funds at her disposal, making it easier for her to conduct business.

"Grandma, about that investment we discussed with my eldest and second aunts, they've suddenly changed their minds..."

"Grandma is getting old, so she won't get involved in business matters. You can make the decision yourselves."

Hearing Grandma Duan's excuse, Qin Xiang smiled but was actually very unhappy.

They didn't say that when they were making money and sharing dividends.

Now that we need their help, this is the attitude they have.

Despite her anger, she still had to appease Grandma Duan.

"Grandma, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. We're planning to open a few more milk tea shops. We can offer cold drinks in the summer and hot drinks in the winter. This business is sure to be profitable..."

Qin Xiang's milk tea shop was also copied from Jiang Yue's.

However, since they opened their shop next to a restaurant, their main selling point is their low prices—a cup of milk tea costs only two or three cents—so they still have a lot of customers.

The main thing is the ingredients used in this milk tea, like pearls and milk powder, which make it taste really novel.

At first, they tried many methods to find this secret recipe.

However, their taste was still far inferior to that of Jumbo Milk Tea, and their business was also much worse.

Qin Xiang tried to create many new products, but none of them could compare to Jiang Yue's.

This is something she just can't understand.

Why is it that no matter how hard she tries, her work can never compare to Jiang Yue's?

Now she has money and manpower, so why is Jiang Yue still so much more capable than her? No matter what she does, she can't beat Jiang Yue. Why is that?
