Chapter 955 The first step has been successful.
Wang Yu reassured him, "No matter how much Feifei makes a fuss, it's because she's young and doesn't understand. Besides, neither you nor I know anything about this. Even if it's discovered, it's all her idea. If it's not discovered, that's best. If it is discovered, I have a way to get it over with."
Qin Ji was feeling very uneasy.
Wang Yu patted his shoulder and said, "Xiao Ji, these are not things you need to worry about. What you need to do now is to do everything you can to win over those old men in the shareholders' meeting. Only if they are on your side will you have a better chance of taking control of Qin's Group. Otherwise, even if your father hands Qin's Group over to those useless old men, he will not give it to you."
Qin Ji clenched his fist and nodded, saying, "I understand."
On the other side, in the ward, Grandpa Qin picked up a chess piece and placed it down, then looked up at Qin Ce sitting opposite him.
"You've been keeping me company all afternoon, and you haven't gone home even after dinner. What's going on?"
Qin Ce leisurely placed the chess pieces next to his grandfather's chess pieces and said, "Aren't you happy to play chess with you?"
"Of course I'm happy, but this is no excuse for doing this. Tell me honestly, are you up to something again?"
Qin Ce said helplessly, "Grandpa, is this how you see me?"
"Stop talking nonsense. Did you have a fight with the stars?"
Grandpa Qin pinpointed the problem as incisively as possible.
He's a man who's lived most of his life; Qin Ce is still a bit too green in front of him.
Qin Ce denied it, saying, "No."
"Are you still pretending? You two have been separated for almost half a day, not a phone call, and you haven't seen each other. What else could it be but a fight?"
“She has her own things to do, and we don’t have to be together all the time. You’re overthinking it.”
Grandpa Qin snorted, "Am I overthinking things, or did you do something wrong and are feeling guilty, so you're hiding here with me?"
This old man becomes exceptionally serious whenever it comes to matters concerning Qiao Xing.
Qin Ce patiently continued to explain to him, "Really, no. She's pregnant right now. Do you think I would argue with her?"
"Who can say for sure? When you get angry, you even argue with me. Xingxing has a gentle temper, how could she possibly win against you?"
Qin Ce assured him, "Don't worry, I didn't bully her, I didn't make her suffer, and I didn't do anything to betray her. You can put your mind at ease."
Grandpa Qin knew that Qin Ce must be hiding something, but no matter what it was, he wouldn't let Qiao Xing suffer any injustice.
As long as that's not the case, he's relieved.
However, Grandpa Qin still reminded Qin Ce, "Xingxing is about to give birth. Giving birth is the most stressful time for a woman. You must pay attention to her emotions at all times and make sure you don't do anything wrong that you don't realize, causing Xingxing to suffer."
Qin Ce nodded obediently, "You've said this so many times since she first got pregnant. I know it by heart. Don't worry, I will never forget it."
"You'd better be!"
Qin Ce played two more games with Grandpa Qin, just as it was time for Grandpa Qin to rest.
Seeing that it was almost time, Qin Ce stood up and said to his grandfather, "Then you rest, I'll come to see you again tomorrow."
Grandpa Qin waved his hand, "Go on, go on, don't forget what I told you."
When Qin Ce drove the car out of the underground garage, it started raining outside, and it was raining quite heavily.
There were hardly any cars or pedestrians on the road.
Qin Ce turned on the windshield wipers and suddenly saw someone waving at his car from the hospital entrance.
Qin Ce drove over, stopped, and then rolled down the window.
"Hello, could you please take me..." Xiao Xiao stopped mid-sentence. When she saw that the person in the car was Qin Ce, she exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Qin, it's you..."
Before Qin Ce could speak, Xiao Xiao hurriedly explained, "The rain is so heavy, I want to go home but I can't get a ride. I thought you were a private car driver, I'm so sorry..."
Qin Ce didn't intend to argue with her, and simply said, "Go back early."
Just as he was about to leave, Xiaoxiao quickly called out to him, "Mr. Qin!"
Qin Ce frowned, clearly impatient. "Is there anything else?"
"Um..." Xiaoxiao clutched her bag helplessly, "The rain is too heavy, and I can't get a taxi for a while. My family is waiting for me to go home, so Mr. Qin, could you please give me a ride?"
Fearing Qin Ce might refuse, she quickly added, "My home isn't far from here, just around the corner and a few hundred meters away, but there are no streetlights on that road, and it's raining. I'm really scared..."
Qin Ce remained silent and did not respond to Xiao Xiao.
This made Xiaoxiao feel a little embarrassed. She awkwardly forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, I was being presumptuous and disturbed you. I'm very sorry..."
After she finished speaking, she turned around to leave, but just as she took a step, she heard Qin Ce say, "Get in the car."
Xiao Xiao was flattered and overwhelmed, and bowed to Qin Ce several times in excitement, "Thank you, Mr. Qin! You are such a kind person!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ce scoffed inwardly.
He didn't actually agree to Xiaoxiao's request out of a genuine desire to help.
Qin Ce had seen countless people like her, and he had heard her clumsy excuses many times before.
If Xiaoxiao isn't that kind of person, then consider it a good deed she did.
If she thought the same way he did, Qin Ce was curious about what this seemingly innocent woman was trying to achieve.
After Xiaoxiao got into the car, she sat very stiffly and didn't dare to move at all, as if she was afraid of getting Qin Ce's car dirty.
Her fingers twisted together nervously, and she bit her lip. "Mr. Qin, thank you so much for bringing me here. I don't know how to thank you enough..."
"No need." Qin Ce kept his eyes straight ahead and didn't look at Xiao Xiao once from beginning to end.
He originally thought that Xiaoxiao had already gotten into the car, and the next step would naturally be to find things to talk about.
However, after Xiaoxiao finished thanking Qin Ce, she remained quiet, staring at the scenery outside, and did not disturb Qin Ce again.
Qin Ce twitched the corner of his mouth.
I didn't realize this woman had some ulterior motives.
About five minutes later, they arrived at Xiaoxiao's house, and the rain outside had lessened considerably.
Xiao Xiao opened the car door and got out, holding her bag over her head as she spoke to Qin Ce inside the car, "Mr. Qin, thank you for your trouble."
Qin Ce said nothing, stepped on the gas, and the car quickly disappeared into the night.
Xiao Xiao watched the direction Qin Ce left in, her expression gradually fading until it disappeared completely.
She has succeeded in her first step.
Qin Ce's car stopped on the side of the road in less than a minute.
