"Mom knows you've both been wronged in this matter. But if this isn't resolved soon, the impact will only grow, further affecting your husbands' jobs and ruining the Duan family's reputation. You two should discuss it and see who will acknowledge Qin Xiang, saying that one of her babies was lost during childbirth. Right now, no one knows Qin Xiang's real age..."
At the company, Jiang Yue listened to Qin An gossiping.
"Bao'er, what do you think will happen in this situation?"
Upon hearing Qin An's words, Jiang Yue flipped through the documents in her hand and said.
"The Duan family will acknowledge her."
ah?
Qin An looked at Jiang Yue in surprise. Would the Duan family really acknowledge Qin Xiang as their daughter?
"But Qin Xiang is an illegitimate child."
"The Duan family will find an excuse and say that Qin Xiang is the biological daughter of the Duan family's wife."
Some families do this in order to quell rumors and restore their family's reputation.
Upon hearing this, Qin An said unhappily.
"I thought Qin Xiang would never be able to get back up this time, but I didn't expect the Duan family to swallow their pride and accept it. Now Qin Xiang will be smug again."
Qin An genuinely felt that Qin Xiang was like an unkillable cockroach—not very strong in combat, but extremely annoying.
"You take good care of yourself, leave these things to us."
Qin An nodded.
Now that the weather is cold, she's wearing more layers. But apart from her slightly larger belly, she's still quite slim.
She looks in the mirror every morning after she gets up.
Luckily, Bao'er was there, otherwise she would have been really heartbroken. She didn't want her figure to go out of shape, and it was already a great thing that she could maintain such a good figure.
Qin An then thought of the Gu worms.
"Bao'er, let's count the days. In a few days, the Gu worm should have grown up, right? Do you think Uncle Long will be furious when he finds out that he didn't succeed?"
“Now that Mr. An is not in China, he will definitely find a way to make amends.”
Thinking of this, Qin An gossiped again.
"Bao'er, do you think those foreign nobles, with all sorts of scheming and trickery, even attacking their own family members, have lost their minds?"
Qin An didn't understand. With the old patriarch around, wasn't that the pillar of stability? Just like their families, as long as their grandparents were alive, they were the pillar of stability. With them around, who would dare to bully them?
Apart from those who are ambitious and want to seize greater power.
Hearing Qin An's words, Jiang Yue smiled and explained.
"Some people always believe they are the most powerful people in the world. They think that once they reach that position, they can command the world and have countless people listen to them. But they don't realize that what they imagine is vastly different from reality..."
Qin An nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
Over the years, I've seen people like this before. Some people have only average abilities, but they're incredibly arrogant, always thinking they can do better, looking down on this person and that person.
As a result, he failed to accomplish anything and even caused a lot of trouble.
They always feel that others have stolen their opportunities and positions, but in reality, their abilities are only so-so. Some people were like that before.
Fang Yu is that kind of person, and so is Qin Xiang.
"These guys are relentless. If only we could catch them all in one fell swoop."
But Qin An also knew that things were not as simple as she thought.
On the surface, none of these families have committed any major offenses.
