Chapter 97.
The turmoil caused by the change of ownership of the Qian family was not as great as the turmoil caused by Qian Yirong poaching Ruan Rongzhen, the second-in-command of the Qu family. You must know that Ruan Rongzhen has worked in the Qu family for nearly 30 years and his understanding of the Qu family is even no less than that of the head of the Qu family.
If Ruan Rongzhen was poached by the other three families, the head of the Qu family would probably have to keep one eye open even when sleeping. However, even the head of the Qu family didn't know why Ruan Rongzhen left the Qu family and accepted Qian Yirong's olive branch.
After all, although Qian Yirong's career is indeed on the rise, it is still a long way from Qu's. As the saying goes, a wise bird chooses a tree to roost in, so she shouldn't downgrade from Qu's to Qian's.
"So why did Sister Ruan accept your invitation?" After learning about Ruan Rongzhen, Xu Baiqing couldn't help but ask Qian Yirong for confirmation.
"Do you know that Sister Ruan still doesn't have any shares in Qu's?" Qian Yirong asked Xu Baiqing who was leaning in her arms.
"Really?" Xu Baiqing asked in shock.
"When the old Patriarch Qu was in charge of Qu Corporation, he would give some shares to Old Chengzi who had followed him for a long time. When Patriarch Qu came to power, although he owned a lot of shares in Qu Corporation, he could not have an overwhelming advantage and make Qu Corporation his one-man show. So no one could get shares from him over the years, and he also found ways to take back some shares of Qu Corporation from former old employees." Qian Yirong told Xu Baiqing the inside story of Qu Corporation that Qu Xueer had revealed to her.
Although Ruan Rongzhen became the second-in-command of the Qu family, she was still an outsider after all, and she could feel that the head of the Qu family was a little afraid of her because of her great power and wanted to get rid of her.
So Qian Yirong went to Ruan Rongzhen with the development plan for the land in the east of the city, and even signed a contract with her. When the development plan of the land in the east of the city was completed to 50%, she would transfer 10% of her company shares to Ruan Rongzhen.
A company with a development prospect that is no less than that of Qu's, and she can also get shares and be the boss. Ruan Rongzhen agreed after considering it for a while. Qian Yirong also has an experienced helper, which is why she has more time to rest during this period.
"Sister Ruan says she's in charge of the Qian family now, but her main focus is still on the development project in the east of the city. After all, it would be a waste of her talent to let her only handle the affairs of the Qian family," Qian Yirong explained.
"No wonder I went to ask Sister Ruan about the Qian family's affairs. She was simply impatient for me to get started as soon as possible." Xu Baiqing showed some understanding.
Although handling Qian's affairs was a very simple task for Ruan Rongzhen, it would still take up part of her time. With this free time, she would of course prefer to advance the development project in the east part of the city. The sooner the project was advanced to 50%, the sooner she could get the shares that Qian Yirong promised her.
"You don't have to rush. You can learn slowly." Qian Yirong was a little worried when she heard Xu Baiqing say this. After all, she knew very well how much Xu Baiqing had worked day and night before, not to mention that her injury had not yet healed completely.
"Don't worry, I will take care of my body." Xu Baiqing certainly knew what Qian Yirong was worried about, so he said this to reassure Qian Yirong.
While the two were in love, the situation on the other side was not so warm. When the head of the Qu family returned to the old house, he couldn't help but burst out with the anger that he had been suppressing for these days.
"Damn Qian Yirong." The head of the Qu family couldn't help but smash the teacup at hand. Because of Ruan Rongzhen's departure, he had been subjected to strange looks and sarcastic words during this period of time.
Although he had long intended to expel Ruan Rongzhen from Qu's family, being poached by someone else was different from forcing her out by some means. Moreover, during this period of time, Ruan Rongzhen was in charge of Qian's family and snatched away several small and medium-sized cooperations from Qu's family, which made outsiders laugh at him.
"You just do nothing all day long. If you were half as good as that kid from the Shen family, I wouldn't stop you from going to the company." The head of the Qu family was angry. Looking at Qu Qingyu who was slacking off beside him, he became even angrier and couldn't help but scold him.
"This is just my personality. Otherwise, Dad, you might as well train Xue'er. I think she is more talented than me." Qu Qingyu didn't take the reprimand from the head of the Qu family to heart at all. Instead, he said this.
"What can't be done with Xue'er? She will get married sooner or later." The head of the Qu family blurted out, and as he said this, he did not notice the dark color that flashed in Qu Qingyu's eyes.
"You just keep talking nonsense. I'm annoyed just seeing you. I'm going to the study. Don't disturb me." After saying this, the head of the Qu family stood up and left.
Qu Qingyu looked at him with a thoughtful expression, and couldn't help but think of something in his mind. A trace of disgust flashed across his eyes. He immediately called Qu Xueer and told her what had just happened.
"...I understand, brother. Be careful and don't let others take your anger out on you." Qu Xueer warned.
"What's wrong with Xue'er?" Qu Xue'er heard a concerned voice as soon as she hung up the phone.
"My brother just told me something..." Qu Xueer told Xu Baiqing what Qu Qingyu had just said with a serious face.
Xu Baiqing couldn't help but frown when he heard this. The head of the Qu family meant that he had no intention of considering Qu Xueer as the heir at all. He didn't even give her any chance to compete, regardless of whether she had talent in this area.
"It's okay, I've gotten used to it." Qu Xueer said this as she felt warm in her heart when she saw Xu Baiqing was angry for her.
"I'm here to keep you company. Let's not say these spoiling words." Qu Xueer came to see Xu Baiqing. After all, she was discharged from the hospital for recuperation. If Qu Xueer wanted to visit her, she could only come to Qian Yirong's villa.
"Well, I've learned a lot from Sister Ruan recently, it's really interesting..." Xu Baiqing saw that Qu Xueer didn't want to talk about this topic, so he changed the subject.
"Really? Tell me what you have learned and teach me." Qu Xueer said happily.
Back when she was in the Qu family, she had a good impression of the decisive and efficient Ruan Rongzhen. Unfortunately, the head of the Qu family was wary of Ruan Rongzhen, so she couldn't approach her openly. When she realized that Qian Yirong wanted to find help, she immediately introduced Ruan Rongzhen to Qian Yirong.
Xu Baiqing and Qu Xueer talked about some of the skills they learned from Ruan Rongzhen, and Qu Xueer was indirectly inspired. However, no matter how interesting the business matters were, they couldn't talk about them for long.
After this topic came to an end, Qu Xueer's eyes turned and she showed a somewhat malicious smile. She looked at Xu Baiqing who was wearing soft clothes. That strange look made Xu Baiqing very uncomfortable.
"Just say whatever you want to say. Why are you looking at me like that? It's weird." Xu Baiqing couldn't stand Qu Xueer's strange gaze and couldn't help but speak.
"Then I won't be polite," Qu Xue'er was waiting for her to say this. She immediately approached her with a sly look and asked in a low voice, "You and Sister Rongrong have been living in the same room together these days, have you..."
Qu Xueer said this with a smile full of meaning. Xu Baiqing understood immediately and her face immediately turned red. She slapped Qu Xueer in annoyance and said, "Have you forgotten that I'm still injured? How could we... possibly... anyway, not."
"Alas." Hearing Xu Baiqing say this, Qu Xueer sighed regretfully. Xu Baiqing had been thinking about this for so long and finally achieved his goal. Qu Xueer thought that their progress would be fast, but she ignored the fact that Xu Baiqing's current physical condition meant that he couldn't do anything.
"But..." Xu Baiqing changed his tone, but stopped talking to keep the conversation in suspense.
"What? What?" Qu Xueer immediately asked with interest as her eye condition had improved.
"What do you think?" Xu Baiqing asked back somewhat embarrassedly.
"Since we can't make it to the last step, then..." Qu Xueer looked at the shy Xu Baiqing, raised the corners of her mouth and said firmly, "You must have kissed, right?"
"Ahem..." Xu Baiqing coughed twice embarrassedly, then nodded in agreement.
"How does the kiss feel?" Qu Xueer couldn't help but be curious. Although she and Chang Xian had kissed by accident, it happened so quickly that she didn't feel anything, so she couldn't help but question the kiss between Xu Baiqing and Qian Yirong.
"Well...it's very comfortable, and also..." Xu Baiqing was a little embarrassed, but still said, "I also feel very happy."
"What does that feel like?" Qu Xueer looked at Xu Baiqing's happy face and couldn't help but feel a little longing.
"Don't just talk about me and Rongrong. How are you and Changxian?" Xu Baiqing felt that she would be too shy to death if Qu Xueer asked her any more questions, so she quickly changed the subject.
"During this period, I reduced the frequency of contact with Sister Xian according to your suggestion, and she really contacted me in return." Qu Xueer couldn't help but say with shining eyes.
"Then this shows that Changxian doesn't treat you as just a younger sister," Xu Baiqing analyzed. "Do you remember the time Rongrong and I went to your bar together?"
"Yeah." Xu Baiqing nodded.
"I now realize that when we were close to each other, Rongrong was a little jealous. Of course, Changxian's behavior was also better than usual. She must have been jealous too." Xu Baiqing said.
"But I got her drunk, and she didn't show any special feelings towards me." Qu Xueer said distressedly.
"What if she was pretending?" Xu Baiqing suddenly had an idea and thought that something was wrong with Chang Xian at that time, and she got drunk too quickly. After she acted drunk, Qu Xueer immediately went to take care of her.
Now it seems that the purpose is to separate her and Qu Xueer. No wonder the attempt to make her tell the truth after drinking or to make something happen failed. If Chang Xian was not drunk at all, everything would make sense.
After listening to Xu Baiqing's analysis, Qu Xueer thought about how when she was taking care of Chang Xian, whenever she wanted to do something more intimate, she would be dodged by Chang Xian vaguely. Now that she thought about it, she might not really be drunk.
"Then what should I do?" Qu Xueer couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Come to think of it, Changxian does react when stimulated. How about giving her a drastic measure?" Xu Baiqing suggested.
"What kind of drastic medicine?" Qu Xueer asked impatiently. Seeing that Xu Baiqing's relationship was going well, she also wanted to get married with Chang Xian as soon as possible.
The two of them worked out a plan, and when Qian Yirong came back from the company, she saw the complacent Xu Baiqing and Qu Xueer. Both of them were smiling slyly, as if they were planning to do something bad, which made Qian Yirong silently cross herself in her heart for their goals.
