Chapter 54 Xia Yue visits the Qin family
"Just wait and see."
After a security guard finished speaking, he turned around and closed the heavy bronze door.
Xia Yue waited for half an hour.
The weather is bad today; the sky is covered with dark clouds, a clear sign that a downpour is imminent.
The driver advised, "Miss, let's wait in the car over there."
“No, I’m right here,” Xia Yue replied coldly.
There are rules at the Qin family's gate: outside vehicles cannot park in front of the gate; they must park in an open-air parking lot 500 meters away to prevent the presence of bombs or similar items in the vehicles.
Xia Yue was afraid that if the Qin family opened the door for her and she wasn't there, she would be impolite and leave a bad impression.
Now, getting the elixir back will be even more difficult for her.
Seeing this, the driver stopped trying to persuade him.
Another half hour passed.
Xia Yue was getting a little anxious when she saw that the security guard hadn't replied to her message yet.
She knocked on the door again and asked, "I have urgent business with Patriarch Qin. When may I come in?"
"There are plenty of people who want to visit the Qin family. You haven't made an appointment, so just wait," a security guard replied impatiently.
Xia Yue frowned slightly; her grandmother was still lying in the hospital waiting for her to return.
She didn't have time to waste any more time.
But if she forces her way in, her chances of winning are even slimmer.
At this moment, a rather kind security guard stepped forward and said...
"Miss Xia, the eldest young master is now in charge of the Qin family. He is not here today, and the old patriarch is on vacation. Please come again next time."
"Who's in charge of the Qin family now? This place is so big, there must be someone in charge, right? I need to go in and talk to them today," Xia Yue asked anxiously.
The kind security guard could only shake his head.
Just then, a white Porsche pulled up at the door.
The gate opened automatically, revealing a Qin family vehicle.
Xia Yue immediately stepped forward to stop the car!
"Hello, I need to speak with the Qin family."
The driver slammed on the brakes, leaned out of the window and yelled, "Where did this jerk come from...?"
Before the word "person" was even finished, the car owner took off his sunglasses and saw Xia Yue in a light red dress, with an absolutely beautiful face and a somewhat aloof temperament. His expression changed instantly!
"Beautiful lady, who are you looking for?" Qin Fei got out of the car and stared at Xia Yue with a lecherous look.
Qin Fei is the sixth son in the third generation of the Qin family. He is tall and handsome, but he is a notorious playboy.
The Qin family members have always kept a low profile, but this sixth Qin brother is often rumored to be involved with celebrities in the entertainment industry.
He's a notorious womanizer, keeping one actress as a mistress today and going to a hotel with another model tomorrow. He falls in love with every woman he meets and dumps them all.
Xia Yue didn't want to have much interaction with this kind of person, but things had come to this point.
Qin Fei was the only person who could bring her into the Qin family.
Xia Yue could only force a smile and say in a sweet voice, "Hello, I'm looking for Patriarch Qin."
“My older brother is very busy lately and doesn’t live here. If you need anything from him, I might be able to help you. I’m quite wealthy too!” Qin Fei smiled ostentatiously, his gaze lingering on Xia Yue.
He had seen many beautiful women, but he had never seen one as stunning as Xia Yue, who had a great figure, high looks, and outstanding temperament.
If we don't win him over, he definitely won't be able to sleep tonight.
Qin Fei glanced at the sky and realized it was about to rain. He then said to Xia Yue, "This isn't a good place to talk. Let's go inside. Come on, get in the car."
Qin Fei personally opened the passenger door for Xia Yue.
Xia Yue finally found an opportunity and naturally went over without hesitation.
At this moment, the Qin family's security captain came out and said, "Sixth Young Master, this person did not make an appointment. According to the rules, he cannot enter the Qin family."
If you'd like to go on a date, you can go to the nearby villa.
The Qin family owns a large estate; besides this sprawling manor, most of the villas in the vicinity belong to the Qin family.
Although Qin Fei was the sixth son, he still understood the rules.
He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I understand."
Xia Yue's expression changed immediately upon hearing this.
The elixir must be in the manor. If she goes on a date with this person somewhere else, how will she get on with her business?
When Qin Fei invited her to get into the car again, Xia Yue said firmly, "I am Xia Yue from the Xia family. I have come to the Qin family today to discuss whether the things that the Xia family sent before can be returned."
"Xia Yue? From the Xia family?" Qin Fei's expression changed slightly upon hearing this name.
Although he was not qualified to manage the Qin Group's official affairs, he knew quite a bit about its private matters.
For example, Xia Yue is the woman who was rumored to be a perfect match for the eldest brother's birth chart and was about to become his sister-in-law some time ago.
However, for some reason, the marriage was suddenly canceled later.
This is the only woman who was engaged to Young Master Qin, yet is still alive and has broken off the engagement!
Qin Fei was immediately filled with curiosity about Xia Yue!
And even more fanatical!
He said with a grin, "So it's my ex-sister-in-law. You came to the Qin family in person, and these security guards actually stopped you at the door. It's like a slap in the face to your elder brother."
Besides, you were once engaged to my older brother. Come on, let's go inside and talk, let's talk slowly."
Qin Fei invited Xia Yue to the manor.
The security captain wanted to say something more, but Qin Fei had already said those things. If he continued to use the rules, he would be contradicting this sixth young master.
The young masters of the Qin family are vying for power and profit; it's best for small fry like us not to get involved.
The security captain let them through this time.
Xia Yue got into Qin Fei's car.
With a "whoosh," the engine started, and the car sped off at an extremely high speed.
The Qin Family Manor is very large, with wide roads and dozens of houses of various kinds.
Qin Fei drove for several minutes before finally stopping in front of a traditional Chinese-style courtyard house.
Several servants immediately came to greet them.
These servants were well-trained; they all kept their heads down, not daring to look too closely.
Xia Yue immediately sensed that the Qin family had far more rules than usual, and their family regulations were extremely strict.
Luckily, I didn't marry into this family, otherwise I would have been suffocated by the oppression.
Just then, a soft, slightly worried female voice came from inside.
"Brother Qin Fei, why did you bring a female celebrity to the old house? If Grandpa finds out, you're finished. He hates it when you don't do your job properly."
Xia Yue looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young girl in a ginger-yellow dress standing under the eaves, looking at Qin Fei with a somewhat helpless expression.
She was holding a bouquet of sunflowers in her hands, and she was quite beautiful.
The makeup on her face was too heavy, and it looked unreal after a while.
Upon seeing the person, Qin Fei still smiled and said, "Sister Qing, this isn't some female celebrity. You'll be surprised when I tell you!"
"Oh? Who is she?" Song Qing's gaze swept over Xia Yue, and she felt that Xia Yue looked somewhat familiar. She instantly became wary.
Qin Fei exclaimed loudly with an exaggerated expression, "She is Xia Yue from the Xia family. She almost became our sister-in-law!"
Upon hearing this, Song Qing immediately gripped the sunflower branch in her hand tightly.
She squeezed the flower branches to extract the juice, which stained her skirt.
However, on the surface, Song Qing still maintained a calm demeanor and said in a gentle and polite manner, "So it's Miss Xia. May I ask what brings you to our Qin family?"
