"Dad, how could you do this?!"
When Qin Anbang heard Qin Shoujiang's decision again, his first reaction was to express doubt.
But other people are different from him, especially Song Xian, who has been giving him advice for a long time.
She stood up from her seat slowly, and then said to Qin Shoujiang in a serious and cold voice: "Dad, I'm sorry, we still don't agree with your decision."
What?
She doesn't agree?
When the Qin family does things, when is it her turn as a woman from another family to speak?
As soon as Song Xian finished speaking, many members of the Qin family were instantly in an uproar.
After all, in the Qin family, the concept of family surname is still deeply rooted in everyone's heart.
As a woman, Qin Anrong is the daughter of the head of the family, which is equivalent to a princess of an imperial dynasty. Naturally, she can show a very strong desire to inherit the family title.
But what about you, Song Xian?
She's just a little daughter-in-law from another family.
Even if your husband is the son of the head of the Qin family, the second young master of the Qin family, the Qin family's affairs have nothing to do with you.
What's more, what they are discussing now is the issue of the future head of the family.
If you disagree, wouldn't that be sheer treason?
Listening to the increasingly clear voices of condemnation around her, Song Xian felt helpless.
She knew very well how little regard a big family would have for a daughter-in-law from another family, but she had no choice.
She had not expressed anything before, but just let Qin Anbang, who had practiced it countless times, perform on his own.
But what is the result?
It would be fine if it had no impact on Qin Shoujiang's decision, but he actually questioned it like a nagging woman?!
How can we force the emperor to abdicate like this?
So there was no choice but for Song Xian to stand up and say the strongest words for Qin Anbang.
Even if you will be scolded by others or even lose the support of some people, you must put things on the right track.
really.
When Song Xian said the word "disagree" again in public, Qin Anbang finally woke up from his dream.
The reason I came here this time was to force the emperor to abdicate instead of discussing it with my father.
The next head of the Qin family can only be me, not anyone else!
Qin Anbang looked at Song Xian apologetically and patted the table to signal everyone to be quiet.
Some people did not react after hearing the sound, but he spoke up loudly to stop them.
He looked like a completely different person from before.
"Dad, Song Xian is right."
“I don’t agree with this decision.”
Qin Anbang deliberately changed Song Xian's "we" into "I", which was equivalent to helping the other party out of the predicament in disguise.
He also knew that the Qin family was very disgusted with the daughter-in-law from another family participating in family affairs, so doing this was equivalent to telling others that the other party was just speaking for him.
"You have seen my contribution to the Qin family over the years."
"As for martial arts, I have gathered Brother Wei, Brother Xun and others to urge other cultivators to practice with all their strength."
"In terms of resources, I teamed up with Qilin and Yifei to buy valuable resources from various regions."
"In terms of business, I am indeed not as good as my third sister, but the businesses under my control also contribute more than 10% of the family's profits, and this is after deducting the two expenses I mentioned earlier!"
"So I think that no matter whether it's my third sister or Wenchang, they are not as good as me."
"I should be the Patriarch of the Qin Family!"
"As for this Qin Xuan, he is just a wild boy who ran back from outside."
"The Patriarch of the Qin Family, is he worthy of it?"
Taking advantage of the enthusiasm that Song Xian showed him, Qin Anbang blurted out all the words he had prepared.
Qin Shoujiang nodded secretly in his heart when he heard this.
I secretly thought that this kid finally got the hang of it a little bit.
But that's not enough.
The words are tough enough, but they are far from the level of forcing abdication.
So Qin Shoujiang snorted expressionlessly, then spoke and added fuel to the fire.
"Humph, when is it your turn to refute what I, Qin Shoujiang, said?"
"It was my decision to make Qin Xuan the head of the family. I asked for your opinions only to be polite to you."
"Why, are you here to challenge me now?"
"Qin Anbang, you are so brave!"
Qin Shoujiang's words undoubtedly aroused Qin Anbang's ptsd.
But in this situation, he has already reached the edge of the cliff.
Either turn around and force the emperor to abdicate, or move forward and jump off a cliff and commit suicide.
There is no option of giving in.
Since no matter how we operate it will fail anyway, we might as well implement all the earlier plans again.
With this thought in mind, Qin Anbang decided to give it his all.
Not only did he shout loudly, interrupting Qin Shoujiang's subsequent words, but he also slammed the table, almost knocking over the decorations next to it.
“That’s enough!”
"You have been like this since I was a child, arbitrary and overbearing, and you don't allow others to question you!"
"But is your idea right?"
"Since you were little, how many things have you accomplished at the suggestion of your eldest brother?"
"But you know, many of the ideas that Big Brother came up with were also proposed by me and Third Sister!"
"You didn't listen to our advice at all. We had no choice but to offer you advice through my eldest brother."
"But what about you?"
“Even if something is accomplished because of our ideas, we are still ignored.”
"Even if we grow up, even if big brother is no longer around!"
"Now, I've had enough!"
"I want to make my own decision and decide the direction of the Qin family."
"So today, you have to give me the position of the head of the family whether you agree or not!"
After saying that, Qin Anbang turned his gaze to Qin Anyong who was sitting opposite him.
The only one who could possibly compete with him now is his third sister, who controls the economic lifeline of the Qin family.
And since childhood, his third sister has always looked down on his eldest brother and father just like himself, so the next thing he has to do is to win over Qin Anrong.
Make the other party give up the idea of competing with you.
"Third sister, now in the Qin family, the people who own the most assets are us two brothers and sisters."
"Dad is old and frail, and can't take care of things. The younger generation has no foundation and can't influence us."
"So I suggest that you and I, brother and sister, join forces to take the position of the head of the family."
"As for the subsequent management, we will redistribute it between the two families."
"In short, my second brother will never mistreat his sister."
"You and your second brother grew up together, so you should know what kind of person he is."
After speaking these heartfelt words, Qin Anbang looked at Qin Anyong expectantly.
He thought he knew his sister quite well.
Although her attitude towards me was not very good, it was still better than that of that arbitrary and overbearing father.
So no matter how Qin Anbang plans to get along with this difficult sister in the future, he must play the emotional card well today.
Only in this way can he successfully become the next head of the Qin family with the help of the other party.
However, just as he was looking forward to his sister standing with him because of their past relationship, Qin Anrong's expression made his heart skip a beat.
As Qin Anyong opened her red lips, she coldly announced her attitude to the public;
Everyone present, whether they were in a team or not, could not help but stare with their eyes wide open, as if they had heard something horrifying.
