Chapter 671: 678 The Person Hiding in the Dark_1

Zhou Ziqing seemed a bit reproachful. "Isn’t it?"

"As you said, I am divorcing Qin Muchuan, I no longer care about him. Why then, should I feel elated over minor matters?" Lin Xiangwan retorted. "I am not that idle, nor do I have that much time!"

"You..." Zhou Ziqing angrily said. "Although Qin Muchuan betrayed you, he has been good to you. Aren’t you being ungrateful? Your grandparents have always been so kind to you!"

"Enough!" Lin Xiangwan interrupted her, glaring at her forcefully. "Now that my grandparents are gone, who are you performing for? You just want to be the mistress of the Qin Family, don’t you? I’ve already decided to make space for you, isn’t that enough? Or do you want me to stay and fight for it?"

"..." Zhou Ziqing remained silent, thinking over her words. "Of course, it’s best if you leave as soon as possible!"

Lin Xiangwan narrowed her eyes to warn. "So, if you’re smart, stop bothering me. Stop scheming against my child, or I guarantee you, you won’t get what you desire!"

She turned and left after saying her piece!

Zhou Ziqing watched Lin Xiangwan’s retreating figure, slightly curling her red lips.

Lin Xiangwan, enjoy your triumph while it lasts. After a while, I’ll make you kneel and beg me!

I’ll make you wish you were dead rather than alive!

She then began to resume her role as a kind and gentle wife, coaxing the two elders of the Qin Family. Regardless, Qin’s patriarch still liked her, it didn’t matter if the old witch didn’t...

"Old Cai, isn’t there really any possibility of smoothing things out? The projects Huatai has constructed these years are all esteemed for their quality, advanced technology, and comprehensive planning. For instance, the last bridge we built even won an international architecture award. The media covered the story for several days, doesn’t that prove Huatai’s strength and reputation? So why, when the project has already commenced, is it being halted?" The old master Qin questioned his former subordinate.

He had called his old subordinate, now a department head in the Central Construction Department, hoping to use his seniority to smooth things over.

After all, it was business related to his family. Even if he wasn’t willing to get involved, there was no harm in asking for help at this time!

"Old leader, this is coming from above, I truly can’t do anything. If there was any way possible, I would help without you needing to ask, but now, I really can’t intervene!" said the other helplessly.

"Then, who can help with this?"

"Of course the current leader can help, but we are not acquainted with the young leaders! Ah, old leader, my secretary is calling me for a meeting. If there’s any good news, I’ll call you!" The other party quickly hung up the phone, using a meeting as an excuse.

Grandfather Qin looked at the silent phone and angrily tapped the floor with his cane. "Damn, now that I’m no longer in power, they ignore me. What the hell was that, back in the day you relied on my home, we couldn’t even get rid of you. You were always sucking up to me..."

The world is cold and fickle...the world is cold and fickle indeed...

Zhou Ziqing placed the freshly brewed tea on the tea table, comforting him. "Grandfather, don’t get angry with these petty people, it’s not worth it!"

Grandfather Qin said desolately, "I treated him well in the past. If I hadn’t promoted him before I resigned, would he be working in the construction department now? And now he gives me this..."

"This is how people are. When you’re in power, they flatter you. When you’re not, they ignore you. So all of this is normal, there’s no need to be angry!"

Grandfather picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Even at this old age, I have seen through it all. Only, I regret not being able to help Muchuan, it troubles me!"

Zhou Ziqing dutifully stood by the old man’s side, whispering, "Muchuan is lucky to have a grandfather like you. But don’t worry, I am seeking help for this situation. The father of a classmate of mine is now in power. If he could say a few words, it shouldn’t be a big issue!"

"It’s difficult!" Grandfather Qin shook his head. "This is obviously aimed at Muchuan, otherwise there would be no halt!"

He had a hunch about this; in today’s ’Z’ Country, only a few companies can handle such a project, and Huatai was without any issues.

Moreover, Muchuan himself also has powerful connections.

The sudden halt indicates that it was done deliberately.

Zhou Ziqing finally understood and nodded, so that’s how it was. But who did Muchuan offend?

Why are they targeting him?

If he really gets targeted, won’t he lose all his money in the future?

However, even if Muchuan lost everything, she was willing to follow this man, because she believed he would rise again.

If Muchuan went bankrupt and Lin Xiangwan left him, wouldn’t that give her a greater chance?

"Grandfather, rest assured, regardless of whether they deliberately target him or not, I will never give up seeking my friends’ help!" Zhou Ziqing said sadly. "Actually, I’m not very close with that friend, but I want to exert some effort!"

Actually, she didn’t have any friends to help. This was all just talk.

Now that Grandfather Qin said what he said, it was even better. Who knew whether she had helped or not?

"Good, you see a person’s true colors in adversity! It is at critical times that one’s true nature is revealed!" Grandfather Qin was truly moved by Zhou Ziqing’s words. Previously, he thought she was a bad one, it seems he was mistaken!

If this girl could be with his grandson, that would be good.

"Duoduo, is there no hope of recovery? As long as she can take care of herself, that’s good enough!" Grandfather Qin inquired with concern.

Zhou Ziqing shed tears. "Grandfather, Duoduo... I’ve been trying rehabilitation, but... there hasn’t been much improvement..."

"That’s also her fate, as long as someone can take care of her in the future, that will be enough!"

"Yes!"

"I believe that after this, Muchuan would also thank you. I know my grandson is a man of feelings and sentiments!"

"Yes!" Zhou Ziqing nodded.

After leaving the house, Lin Xiangwan caught up with Xu Feng’e, just in time to see her running to find Ahua.

From her hiding spot, she broke into a smile.

Seems she’s quite anxious, huh? She wondered what kind of tricks Feng’e would try to pull, or whether she would do something dreadful!

She waited quietly!

Suddenly, she saw Xu Feng’e leave angrily, while Ahua came out of the house cursing at her from above.
