Chapter 541: Mrs. Chen’s Ambition
Mrs. Chen stared at Qin Dahai, speechless.
There was neither anger nor surprise on her face, and her eyes flickered, as if she was weighing and hesitating about something.
Qin Dahai sneered in his heart. Looking at the other party's reaction, it was obvious that he had made plans long ago. For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel angry or relieved.
He was furious that Madam Chen dared to treat his granddaughter like this. What did she think of his family? Commodities and bargaining chips? At the same time, he was glad that Madam Chen didn't bring his granddaughter into the Chen family. Otherwise, his granddaughter might have been taught a wrong way by the Chen family and Madam Chen!
Qin Dahai didn't want to give Mrs. Chen any more patience at this moment, so he stood up and sent her away. "You don't have to make a decision in a hurry. Go back and discuss it with the Chen family first. I'll wait for you..."
"No, I agree!"
Mrs. Chen's decisiveness surprised Qin Dahai for a moment.
But he reacted quickly. He was hesitating whether to remind her to think it over carefully when he heard the other party continue, "Just as you said just now, 500 million. You give me 500 million, and I agree to sever the mother-daughter relationship with Qiqi and never have any contact with her again."
Qin Dahai sat back on the sofa and looked at Madam Chen frankly, "This is not a trivial matter. Are you sure you can make a decision? Although I am personally happy to see this result, I, Qin Dahai, have always been upright and will not bully a woman like you. You should go back and discuss it with the Chen family."
"No."
Mrs. Chen did not accept Qin Dahai's kindness. Her beautiful and delicate face showed a rare firmness. "Qiqi is my daughter. She has nothing to do with the Chen family. I can make the decision."
Before coming, Mrs. Chen did want to ask the Qin family to help the Chen family out of trouble, but the moment Qin Dahai asked her to sever the mother-daughter relationship with Tang Qi, an idea came to her mind.
This was her only chance to exploit her eldest daughter for her own benefit.
Originally, she placed her happiness and hopes for the rest of her life on Chen Yuanhong and her youngest daughter Chen Yue. However, ever since the Chen family's company ran into problems over the past month, Chen Yuanhong's attitude towards her has become worse day by day. They haven't even slept in the same bed for half a month, not to mention the tenderness and sweetness between husband and wife.
She had only wanted to help her husband out of trouble, to make him change his mind, and to make everything go back to the way it was before.
But when a huge fortune that was enough to make her and Chen Yue live a life of luxury and wealth for the rest of their lives was placed in front of her, her thoughts suddenly changed.
The Chen family is wealthy and powerful, but what does it have to do with her?
When she first married into the Chen family, Old Man Chen had made it clear in front of her that in this life, apart from the identity of Mrs. Chen, she would have no share in the Chen family's assets and companies.
At that time, she thought that she would definitely be able to give birth to a son for the Chen family, and having a son would give them hope.
But later she only gave birth to a daughter, and the heavy bleeding during childbirth damaged her body, making it impossible for her to have children again.
Although she was unwilling, she could only place all her hopes on Chen Yue, hoping that Chen Yue would marry into a prominent family in the future. Then, the Chen family would not dare to treat her badly for Chen Yue's sake.
Unfortunately, Chen Yue is still young, and the Chen family is showing signs of decline.
Her weighing and hesitation just now was not because she was reluctant to give up the mother-daughter relationship with her eldest daughter, but because she was choosing between wealth and her husband.
During this period, in order to help Chen Yuanhong raise money, she ran around, selling properties and financial funds. She was even forced to transfer the imperial green jadeite beads that Chen Yuanhong gave her when she gave birth to Chen Yue, which she was reluctant to wear and kept in the bank safe, to a jeweler.
Once upon a time, this string of imperial green jadeite beads was her pride and her confidence. It was also because of its existence that the circle of noble ladies in the imperial capital recognized her identity and acquiesced to her joining.
But now, her pride and confidence were completely trampled into pieces with the loss of the imperial green jadeite beads. The circle of noble ladies who had always been flattering the powerful and taking advantage of the weak have not invited her to participate in parties and activities for a long time.
Since the Chen family and Chen Yuanhong were unreliable, why couldn't she be the master of her own house? Although 500 million yuan wouldn't make much of a splash in the capital, if she returned to City B, she could barely be considered a wealthy family.
If the Chen family really fails, the 500 million and City B will be her way out.
In less than a minute, Mrs. Chen's mind was full of thoughts, her blood was boiling, and her thoughts became more firm.
"Mr. Qin, I've thought about it and I agree to your request. However, this money is no longer a loan from you. Instead, it is used by the Qin family to buy out the mother-daughter relationship between Qiqi and me."
At this point, Qin Dahai stopped trying to persuade him. "Okay, but 500 million is not a small amount for the Qin family. I need time to prepare."
Mrs. Chen asked quickly: "When can you be ready?"
"In about a week, I will notify you to come over to sign the agreement. However, this matter is very serious, so I will ask a lawyer to notarize it."
Mrs. Chen's expression changed slightly and she hesitated for a long time before nodding, "I understand."
She put the piece of paper with her name and account number written on it, which she had prepared in her handbag, on the coffee table, then stood up and prepared to say goodbye. "Master Qin, then let's make this clear. I'll go home and wait for your news."
Before Qin Dahai could open his mouth, the door of the study was suddenly pushed open, and an angry voice was heard.

"I don't agree!"
Looking at Luo Guihua standing at the door of the study with an angry face, Mrs. Chen was shocked, "Mom, why are you here?"
Luo Guihua ignored her and looked at Qin Dahai with a guilty look on her face, "Mr. Qin, can I come in and say a few words?"
Qin Dahai naturally agreed, and personally stood up and led Luo Guihua into the study.
The old butler had just finished his work and came to the study to wait for orders. Qin Dahai couldn't wait to tell him, "Hurry up and bring in a few cups of hot tea, big bowls!"
The old butler glanced at the coffee table and understood what was going on, then quickly turned around to make tea.
Now there is only Qin Dahai in the Qin family, plus two guests, Luo Guihua and Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu is usually busy, and she can't sit idle when she comes to the Qin family. She helps the servants of the Qin family do this and that. It happened that a pair of sister servants had something happen at home, and they wanted to ask for leave to go back to their hometown to deal with it. The old housekeeper saw that Aunt Liu could help, so he approved the sisters' leave.
As a result, Aunt Liu went out to see her son today and was not at home. There was only one servant in the Qin family, so it was inevitable that she could not take care of him.
"Sister Guihua, if you have anything to say, please sit down first..."
Before Qin Dahai could finish his words, Luo Guihua suddenly plopped down on her knees in front of him, scaring Qin Dahai so much that his blood pressure almost spiked.
Mrs. Chen, who was watching this scene, was shocked and exclaimed, "Mom, what are you doing?!"
Qin Dahai reacted very quickly and bent down to help Luo Guihua up. "No, let's talk it over. Get up quickly!"
Luo Guihua shook her head and refused, her face filled with shame and regret, "No, Mr. Qin, I am too ashamed to see you, let alone Xiao Qin. It is all because of my poor teaching that I have brought trouble to the Qin family and made you laugh at me."
