Chapter 113 Will and Division of Inheritance: The Whole Family Gathers to Divide the Inheritance
After saying this, Qin Zhen ignored his wife, who was slumped on the ground, stepped over her legs, and strode away.
The door slammed shut.
When Qin Zhou and Qin Ji came from the garage, they ran into Qin Zhen in the front yard. The two greeted each other in unison, but Qin Zhen didn't bother to respond.
"What's wrong, Second Uncle? You seem to be in a hurry. Has something happened?" Qin Ji asked.
Qin Zhou frowned and quickly walked towards the main house.
Xu Jinhua, who was already indignant after being yelled at by Qin Zhen, struggled to get up.
Now, seeing her son rushing over, she simply refused to get up, sat back down, and continued her tantrum on the ground.
"Ah Zhou, my life is so miserable! Your father and that vixen outside are entangled in some complicated relationship, and now he's saying he wants a divorce! He wants a divorce! I don't want to live anymore, Ah Zhou, I don't want to live anymore!"
Qin Zhou was most afraid of his mother acting like this, and his scalp tingled. He looked to Qin Ji next to him for help.
Qin Ji was even more afraid of his second aunt's tantrums.
So he silently withdrew his foot, which was about to step through the door.
"Um, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to take care of at work, so I'll go back and work overtime for a bit..."
Qin Ji fled.
Qin Zhou: "?..."
That's outrageous.
-
On the other side, at the hospital.
After reading the latest message from Peng Wen, Song Ying replied with a few more words before putting her phone back in her pocket.
Lanchuang is a business owned by the Qin family, and it has always been managed by the second branch of the family.
Whether there is a loss or not, it should be none of her business.
But if anyone's to blame, it's Xu Jinhua for being blind and insisting on walking right into the line of fire.
Having worked her way up in the entertainment industry, Song Ying was already immune to trash talk, but Qin Shu was different.
He was at a sensitive time, and Xu Jinhua still chose this opportunity to provoke Qin Shu with reckless words.
Song Ying absolutely could not tolerate this.
Looking up at Qin Shu, who was standing by the hospital bedside, looking blank and detached, Song Ying felt another pang of heartache.
She walked over quietly, took a glass of warm water, and handed it to him.
"Ashu, have some water."
Qin Shu had barely eaten or drunk anything all day, and even though Song Ying had ordered porridge, he had no appetite for it.
Qin Shu took the cup but did not drink it.
She was still gazing at the old man lying there.
Although only half a day had passed, the old man on the hospital bed looked as if he had lived through several years.
“When I was a child, whenever I had a high fever, my grandfather would stay by my bedside like this.”
“I would wake up from nightmares and need to hear stories to fall asleep, so he would patiently stay by my bedside and read to me every day to lull me to sleep.”
"When I'm in a bad mood, he'll dress up as a monster and pretend I beat him up, not caring what others will think..."
Qin Shu's voice was slightly hoarse.
Ever since the old man was admitted to the ICU, countless scenes of our time together, from childhood to adulthood, have flashed before my eyes.
At that moment, he was truly afraid.
He was afraid that from now on, the person who treated him best in this world would leave him forever because of his own impulsiveness.
Qin Shu began to blame himself.
I started to feel lost.
It's starting to loosen.
But when he recalled the tragic state of his parents, he couldn't deceive himself and pretend that nothing had happened.
The rift in his emotions stretched and spread, as if it were about to devour him.
No matter how heavy the workload was, it had never felt as overwhelming as this matter.
"Don't think about it, Ash."
Song Ying squatted down in front of Qin Shu, cupped his face in her hands, and forced Qin Shu to look at her.
"Didn't the doctor already say that Grandpa was just feeling a bit short of breath and there was nothing seriously wrong with him? In fact, he's out of danger now and there's nothing else to worry about, so don't blame yourself too much."
"It's getting late. You should at least eat something to fill your stomach and then get a good night's sleep. Don't make me worry, okay?"
"Don't worry, I'll stay here with you and Grandpa. I won't go anywhere. I'll just call you if anything happens, okay?"
Song Ying's voice was softer than ever before.
Qin Shu snapped out of his reverie and looked at her.
Meeting those worried eyes of the titmouse, my aching heart was suddenly struck.
"good."
He finally obeyed.
Song Ying was very happy. She quickly opened the porridge in the insulated food container, watched Qin Shu eat it herself, and made him drink two cups of water before she felt at ease.
The night was long, and the smell of disinfectant filled the air.
In the latter half of the night, Qin Shu finally fell into a deep sleep.
-
The old man woke up slowly the next morning.
At this time, Qin Zhou and Qin Ji had arrived and were about to relieve Qin Shu from resting, but Qin Shu was still worried about the old man until he woke up, so the group sat quietly together in the ward.
The first thing the old man did upon waking up was to look for Qin Shu.
"Grandpa, I'm here."
Qin Shu quickly stepped forward and took the old man's hand.
"How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you? Doctor... Ah Ying, quickly call the doctor!"
Qin Shu was somewhat at a loss.
But in the end, the old man's "I'm sorry" shut him up completely.
"I'm sorry, Ash..."
The old man repeated himself, tears streaming down his face.
Qin Ji and Qin Zhou, unaware of what had happened, looked at each other blankly.
At this moment, the old man was already looking at them.
"It's Aji and Azhou..."
"grandfather."
The two hurriedly went to meet them.
The old man coughed twice and continued.
"Have your parents come over. Tell them I have something to say."
Qin Ji said worriedly, "Grandpa, the doctor said you need to rest. Can we talk about this later?"
Qin Zhou nodded, "Yes, Grandpa, there's no rush. You should focus on getting better first; that's the most important thing right now."
"Listen to me, call them over. And call your aunt over too."
The old man spoke softly, but his attitude was firm.
"That's enough," he said to Qin Shu.
"Ashu, call Secretary Zhou and tell him to bring a lawyer and a notary."
The moment the word "notarization" was uttered, everyone present was taken aback.
In this situation, to ensure everyone is present, notarization is required.
Only one possibility remains...
Make a will.
"Grandpa, the doctor said you need to rest!"
Qin Shu raised her voice, her resistance extremely obvious.
Seeing that he didn't move, the old man propped himself up on his arms and tried to get up.
"Since I can't get you to do it, I'll do it myself. Ah Ji, Ah Zhou, where's my phone?"
"Never mind, Grandpa, you should just lie there and rest. Let us do it."
Seeing that the old man was determined, Qin Ji gritted his teeth and agreed.
-
When Qin Jin learned that the old man was hospitalized, she was in a neighboring city conducting research with her students.
Upon hearing that the person had been admitted to the ICU, he immediately took leave and drove to the capital.
By the time everyone had gathered, it was already afternoon.
The room was packed with people.
Knowing that Qin Jin was usually busy, Qin Yong did not call his sister to tell her about it after the old man was out of danger yesterday.
It was only on his way back that Qin Jin called to ask about it, and the two chatted briefly.
However, Qin Yong did not mention that the old man fainted because of Qin Shu.
So as soon as Qin Jin entered the door, he said...
"When I visited you a few days ago, you were perfectly fine. How did you end up in the hospital? And now you want to make a will? Isn't this ridiculous?"
For these wealthy families, making a will while they are still healthy is not a good omen.
So actually, no one really wants to.
But Xu Jinhua is different.
If the old man were to divide the family property and make a will now, the second wife would be able to receive a large sum of money.
Not only will it be able to fill the hole in Lanchuang, but it will also no longer have to depend on the eldest son's family. This is exactly what Xu Jinhua has been dreaming of.
Therefore, she clicked her tongue.
"Ah Jin, you don't know yet, but the old man was hospitalized because of Ah Shu, right? Now that he's making a will, who knows, it's true..."
Xu Jinhua laughed halfway through her sentence.
Qin Jin glared at her subconsciously.
"If it's just a vague idea, Second Sister-in-law, you'd better not say anything more."
Xu Jinhua: "Where did the nose go? Don't believe me? Ask around..."
"Shut up, all of you!"
The old man rebuked him in a stern voice.
His voice was not as deep and resonant as before, but it still carried an imposing aura.
The ward fell silent again.
The old man then slowly began to speak.
"Secretary Zhou, have all the companies and businesses under the Qin family's name been organized?"
"Sir, everything is here."
Secretary Zhou handed over the documents in his hand.
It was a thick stack, quite heavy.
The old man looked through it for a moment, then looked up at Qin Jin.
“Ah Jin, although you have married into the Ye family, you were the one your mother worried about the most among her children before she passed away.”
“You’ve never cared about company matters; you’ve devoted all your energy to research.”
"That's a good thing. The Qin family is a merchant family, but that doesn't mean that all the younger generation will follow this path. It's great that you've found something you enjoy."
"But everyone needs some money to protect themselves, especially women. Having money gives them confidence. The Ye family has treated you well, and Alan is quite sensible. But there's still a long road ahead, and what's due to you will ultimately not be less."
"The Ye family's businesses are all concentrated in the north of the city, so I'm giving you Hongcheng Real Estate, which belongs to the Qin family in that area, so that your father can go further in his business in the future."
"And the two villas in Bozhou Bay, consider them gifts that I, as your maternal grandfather, prepared for Ye Lan on behalf of your mother."
"As for the group's shares, I'll give you 10%. As for the business operations, since you're not interested, I won't give you any. You'll work with them and receive a dividend at the end of the year."
"Here you go, this is the transfer document, the assignment agreement, and the property transfer document. Take a look, and if there are no problems, just sign it."
The old man took out a few documents from the stack and handed them to Secretary Zhou.
Secretary Zhou quickly presented it to Qin Jin with both hands.
"I don't want to!"
Qin Jin pushed the document aside.
Even now, she still finds it hard to accept the sudden division of the family property.
"Dad, I don't want any of these things. Not only does the Ye family not lack these things, but even if we did, I can earn a living with my own hands. I have a job and a career. Please take these things back!"
The old man said, "You are a daughter of the Qin family. Here, take it."
Qin Jin remained unmoved.
Xu Jinhua, who was standing next to her, glanced at it and muttered a complaint under her breath.
"Ah Jin, you're not complaining that Dad didn't give you enough, are you?"
"Think about it, you're a married woman, you shouldn't have received a single penny. Besides, Hongcheng Real Estate in the north of the city has a net profit of over ten million every month, and the land they acquired recently is worth over a billion, not to mention those two villas. Dad even gave you 10% of the shares. All things considered, it's quite a lot~ You should be content!"
"If you're really so noble and don't want it, I'm a simple person, just give it to me! I'll still be eternally grateful to you..."
"Mom—! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Qin Zhou interrupted Xu Jinhua's mercenary remarks.
He simply couldn't understand why his mother, who was usually so short-sighted, would still be so rash and inappropriate in this situation.
"The entire Qin family belongs to Grandpa. He can divide it however he wants and give it to whomever he wants. Why do you care so much? So what if Auntie got married? Over the years, she has never failed to take care of the family and has visited Grandpa many times. We are all family. It's not as outrageous as you're saying!"
As he spoke, Qin Zhou looked at Qin Jin.
“I’m sorry, Auntie. That’s just how my mother is; she doesn’t think before she speaks. I apologize on her behalf. Please don’t take it to heart. Since these are all Grandpa’s good intentions, you should accept them so that he won’t always be worried.”
