Qin Zhenshan glared angrily at Ye Weiwei: "This kind of important matter is not something a young girl like you can decide! We came here today to discuss things properly with you. If you insist on pushing us to the brink, then don't blame us for being impolite!"
Ye Weiwei scoffed: "Threatening me? I've always been quite bold. Now that you've said that, I'm really curious to see just how impolite you can be. Don't disappoint me."
Qin Zhenyue was surprised that Ye Weiwei was so unyielding, and stared at her with a vicious look: "You won't listen to reason! Do you really think our two families are easy to bully? In that case, there's nothing more to talk about. Second brother, let's go!"
Ye Weiwei: "Take care and don't come back!"
After saying that, he said to the guard at the gate, "Tell the gatekeeper of the compound not to let just any Tom, Dick, or Harry in from now on."
The guard immediately nodded in agreement.
Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue were so angry that their faces contorted, and they stormed off.
After everyone left, Aunt Hua looked at Ye Weiwei with concern: "Young Madam, why don't you call the Master, lest those two families become desperate and do something rash?"
Ye Weiwei smiled and reassured her, "Aunt Hua, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. The old man and the others know too."
When Aunt Hua heard that this was Old Master Qin's idea, she didn't say anything more.
As soon as Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue returned home, they were surrounded by their families, who bombarded them with questions.
The two of them, having been rebuffed by Ye Weiwei and annoyed by her nagging, unleashed a torrent of anger on these people.
The thought of the two of them, who were over a hundred years old combined, being manipulated and humiliated by Ye Weiwei, a mere twenty-year-old girl, filled them with rage.
"Brother, what do you think? What should we do now?"
Now that they've announced the division of the family property, Qin Zhenyue is directly calling Qin Zhenshan "elder brother," clearly indicating that he doesn't consider Old Master Qin as part of the family.
Qin Zhenshan's face was contorted with rage. "Since they're so heartless, don't blame us for being ruthless too! If they won't give us a way out, then we'll all go to hell together!"
Qin Zhenyue's heart tightened, and he hesitated for a moment, "Brother, isn't there any way to ease the situation?"
He didn't want to fall out with Qin Zhenyuan. After all, it's good to have a powerful backer. Qin Zhenyuan's family was doing well and their future wouldn't be too bad.
Most importantly, none of the younger generation in both families are capable of shouldering heavy responsibilities; they are far inferior to Qin Xiao.
Qin Zhenshan sighed, "If only we had taken the initiative to back down when it came to Qin Xiao's recognition of his ancestors, things would have been much better. My eldest brother has always been proud and protective of his own..."
Qin Zhenyue was filled with regret when he thought about this. At the time, he only thought that if Qin Zhenyuan had no descendants, then after he died, the Qin family property would eventually belong to their two branches. But Qin Xiao suddenly appeared and intercepted it. Who could feel at ease?
"What do you think about us going to find our eldest brother and Qin Xiao now, getting Qin Xiao added to the family register, and temporarily handing over the position of Qin family head to him?"
Qin Zhenshan scoffed, "Give way? Do they need us to give way? They have everything they want now, they clearly want to get rid of us two families, these two burdens. Do you really think that if we compromise now, we'll have another chance in the future?"
Qin Zhenyue looked embarrassed by Qin Zhenshan's words, "I was just thinking that Sihan might have a chance in the future..."
Qin Zhenshan's face was gloomy: "They won't give Sihan a chance, and besides, Sihan is still a bit inferior to Qin Xiao."
How can a wolf raised in a greenhouse compare to a wolf that has grown up through gunfire?
Back then, Qin Zhenyuan was able to become the head of the family because he had plenty of resources from the Qin family to cultivate him from a young age. Even Qin Xiao was not as outstanding at that age. If nothing unexpected happens, Qin Xiao will go even higher than Qin Zhenyuan in the future.
Although Qin Zhenyue was unwilling, he had to admit it.
Finally, as if giving up the struggle, his expression turned grave. "Does it really have to come to that?"
Qin Zhenshan: "Otherwise what? Are you willing to be kicked out empty-handed like this?"
Qin Zhenyue slammed his fist on the table. "Fine! We'll listen to our eldest brother. If they're ruthless, they can't blame us for being ruthless too!"
The two then spent most of the day discussing the matter in the study.
When they came out of the study, they all had a look of desperation on their faces.
Ye Weiwei stood outside, using her mental energy to monitor the actions of the two branches of the Qin family, and clearly heard the two brothers' plans.
She toyed with the red jade thumb ring that symbolized her status as the head of the Qin family. Thinking of Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyuan's words, a mocking smile appeared on her lips.
Just as she was about to leave, Ye Weiwei's spiritual sense suddenly detected Guan Mingyue sneaking around under the bed, digging open a floor tile and taking out a half-sized box.
The box was opened, revealing a layer of jewelry on top, a layer of neatly stacked banknotes in the middle, including both Chinese and foreign currencies, and a layer of gold bars about two fingers long and wide, numbering at least a hundred.
Ye Weiwei narrowed her eyes.
It seems that Qin Zhenshan and his wife have lined their own pockets quite a bit over the years.
The moment the thought crossed Ye Weiwei's mind, she noticed Guan Mingyue quickly close the box, push it into the underground hidden compartment, and then sit on the bed as if nothing had happened.
A moment later, Qin Zhenshan came in from outside. She immediately went up to him with concern and asked with a distressed expression, "Did something go wrong?"
Qin Zhenshan gave a grim "hmm".
Guan Mingyue cursed angrily, "It's all those two little brats' fault, causing the eldest branch of the family to drift apart from our two branches. That Ye Weiwei, I knew she was no good the moment I saw her! With that foxy face, she looks like a troublemaker!"
Qin Zhenshan glanced at Guan Mingyue with displeasure: "It's all your fault! You offended her on our first meeting!"
Guan Mingyue said aggrievedly, "Wasn't it because Fei wanted me to go and check the situation? Besides, I'm her elder, so what's wrong with saying a few words to her? Why make such a big deal out of it and keep bringing it up?"
Qin Zhenshan waved his hand impatiently, "Alright, alright! There's no point in talking about this now. Pack up your things these next few days, take everything you can. I've found a courtyard house I like in the west of the city, so move everything there first."
Guan Mingyue nodded immediately, "I know what to do. Don't worry, I guarantee the third branch of the family won't find out."
Qin Zhenshan nodded.
Ye Weiwei looked at the couple, a hint of interest flashing in her eyes.
I thought they were so great, but this is what they're like?
Guan Mingyue had hidden a large sum of money from Qin Zhenshan, and Qin Zhenshan and his wife were not exactly clean either, secretly keeping a close watch on Qin Zhenyue's family.
Ye Weiwei simply unleashed her supernatural abilities and searched the Qin family's old house inside and out, and the results were very gratifying!
It must be said that the Qin family is indeed a prestigious family that has been passed down for generations. Even a broken ship has three thousand nails. They are indeed very wealthy.
