Chapter 652 Fierce Battle
Ignoring Qin Yiyi's panic, Qin Cheng said sternly, "Yiyi, you are the only daughter of the Qin family. From childhood to adulthood, what have I never given you? Your second brother has always indulged you and never let you suffer the slightest grievance. But look at the outrageous things you've done now!"
"For the position of family head, you actually colluded with outsiders and turned your own brother against him! Even now, do you still remain stubborn and unrepentant?!"
Qin Yiyi's eyes reddened: "Dad, I... I don't want to do these things either, but I really don't want to live a muddled life anymore. I was forced into this!"
"Fine, you were forced into this, but even if you want the position of family head, you should rely on your own true abilities to ascend to the position fairly and squarely. What are you doing now, acting so perversely? How can you be worthy of being a son of the Qin family?!" Qin Cheng slammed his cane into the ground.
Qin Yiyi's eyes reddened even more: "Yes, I'm not worthy. Only that runaway ingrate and my second brother are worthy, aren't they? From childhood to adulthood, you've looked down on me, everyone looks down on me, they all bully me. I can't even keep the person I like, so I want power. Only by having power can I truly have everything!"
"Your so-called power is greater than the uncles and nephews who have doted on you since you were a child, greater than your own brother who shares the same mother as you, and even greater than me, your biological father, isn't that right? Yiyi, turn back now, it's not too late." Qin Cheng looked grief-stricken, and his emotions were so intense that he almost lost his balance.
Fortunately, Uncle Xu, who was standing nearby, caught him.
Seeing Qin Cheng sway, Qin Yiyi's heart clenched.
Even though she forced herself to get to where she is today, all of that planning and the premise were based on the fact that Qin Cheng was dead.
Now, every question Qin Cheng asked her was a veiled attack on her conscience. At this moment, she felt not only embarrassed, but also genuinely soft-hearted.
He was, after all, her biological father; even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected.
Seeing him like this, she couldn't remain completely unmoved.
At that moment, she knew she was in a predicament.
Taking a step forward would be disloyal and unfilial.
Taking a step back would mean all our efforts were in vain.
Baiyi, who was standing to the side, saw the struggle in her expression.
He spoke up at the opportune moment: "Miss Qin, you should think this through. You've come this far with great difficulty. Now you're just one move away. If we join forces, the position of family head will be yours for the taking. But if you give up now... do you really think your father, your brother, or even those old fogies will spare you? They'll just be clinging to life!"
Qin Yiyi understood these principles perfectly well, yet she remained hesitant when faced with Qin Cheng.
Seeing this, Bai Yi knew he needed to add fuel to the fire. He looked at Qin Cheng and said, "Patriarch Qin, you don't need to pretend. I was almost fooled by you just now. I suppose you know that the Qin family's situation is unstable, so you used the trick of faking your death to lure the snake out of its hole and stabilize the overall situation."
"It's a pity that your crippled body can fool others, but not me. Hehe, your legs are unsteady and your face is pale. You are clearly terminally ill. Even if you can hold on for a while, you definitely won't last more than three days."
Qin Cheng stared at him coldly without saying a word, which was taken as tacit agreement.
Bai Yi continued, "Miss Qin, Qin Cheng is just at the end of his rope, so why are you afraid of him? As long as we join forces, I will definitely help you become the head of the family. If you feel reluctant, you can just give them a proper burial later."
Seeing that Qin Yiyi's expression seemed to soften, Qin Cheng said with exasperation, "Yiyi!"
He wanted to use this to awaken his daughter.
Qin Yiyi shuddered. Bai Yi added fuel to the fire, saying, "Miss Qin, do you really want to live your whole life under the influence of your father and brothers, controlled and scolded by them? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you don't seize it, they will kick you out of the Qin family, you will be left to wander the streets, no one will remember your name, and everyone in the capital will laugh at you, including those you care about, the An family, the Wen family, and so on..."
These words made Qin Yiyi suddenly shudder.
No, she can't live that kind of life.
She is Qin Yiyi, the future head of the Qin family. She absolutely cannot become a homeless beggar on the streets.
She doesn't need their pity; she wants them, that man, to look up to her and treat her with utmost respect!
In an instant, she made up her mind: "Okay, let's continue our cooperation!"
She turned to Qin Ying and asked, "Auntie, what's your choice?"
A hint of hesitation flashed across Qin Ying's face. She lowered her head and remained silent. As the eldest brother, she felt like a father to Qin Cheng, who had raised her. She never dared to disobey her brother.
"I understand." Qin Yiyi nodded sadly, then said sternly, "Who else in the Qin family is willing to work with me to build this great enterprise? Step forward now, and after it's done, you can choose any of the shops, management positions, and money you want!"
As the saying goes, a generous reward will surely attract brave men.
Although most people backed down due to the authority of Qincheng.
However, there were still some people who had never been successful in the Qin family, or who were dissatisfied with Qin City, who still stood up for Qin Yiyi.
Seeing this, Baiyi breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, his side had a firm advantage in terms of numbers.
He looked at Qin Yiyi and said, "Have your men follow my command. If we unite, we can definitely wipe out these stubborn resisters in one fell swoop!"
Qin Yiyi took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, we'll do it your way."
Hearing Qin Yiyi's words, Bai Yi felt relieved and turned to wave his hand: "Everyone, listen to me and take down Qin Cheng and his gang!"
Looking at the people surrounding them, Qin Leilei whispered in Qin Cheng's ear, "Dad, how many men do you have under your command?"
Qin Cheng had become even weaker due to his emotional outburst. His face was pale, and he opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word.
Uncle Xu supported him and said in a deep voice, "Second Young Master, the head of the family still has thirty-four elites at his disposal."
The opposing forces, including Bai Yi and Qin Yiyi's men, number at least two hundred. His men are all under control, and even with Qin Cheng's men, he has almost no chance of winning in a real fight.
But Qin Leilei also knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to surrender at this moment.
If it were just Qin Yiyi, it wouldn't be so bad, but Bai Yi on the other side represents the Tang family. They have ulterior motives and will not let the Qin family off so easily.
A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes: "Uncle Xu, you don't need to fight later, just ensure my father's safety."
Uncle Xu nodded: "Don't worry, young master."
Bai Yi's command and Uncle Xu's reply rang out together. Qin Leilei's blood boiled, and he said to the woman in black beside him, "Whip."
The woman in black was already prepared and handed over a soft whip.
This soft whip was passed down to Qin Leilei by his master and has been with him for decades. It is covered with barbs, and one lash can break a person's spine.
His eyes gleamed with arrogance as he cracked his whip and strode forward: "Men of the Qin family, follow me to kill the enemy!"
