Chapter 541: Seeing him just makes me want to buy him candy.

The even more laughable part was that Qiu Tianyi actually went about inquiring who the legal person behind Peak was.

It’s unclear how he managed to get the legal person’s contact details, but after several rounds, he actually managed to call the legal person’s mobile phone.

The legal person of Peak was once a subordinate of Yan Shixiu, who had helped him build several industrial companies. Unfortunately, his wife fell ill, and he stepped back from managing the company. However, when Miss Shi needed a legal person, Yan Shixiu immediately thought of him.

So, Mr. Yan was the first to know about Qiu Tianyi’s naïve and arrogant intentions.

"Since he wants to see you, just meet with him. The kind of presence you had back then, you still have now. You don’t need to be too polite with that kind of minor character. Also, casually ask how much the Qiu Family is selling for, I’ll offer three times the price."

Upon hearing Yan Shixiu’s tone, the other party laughed, "This person must have offended Mr. Yan, right?"

"You could say that."

"Then I’ll have to clean him up properly for you."

...

After Sun Ling arrived at the company, she hurried to find the big boss and mentioned the family dinner matters. If they were to face each other, wouldn’t the conversations she had with Mrs. Qiu yesterday be brought to the table?

"What are you afraid of?" Shi Lan countered Sun Ling, "Besides Mrs. Qiu, who else was there?"

"The servants, I guess, but they were coming in and out all the time, probably didn’t hear everything." Sun Ling said.

"Even if she heard everything, it proves nothing. At the dinner tomorrow, you just need to sacrifice yourself for everyone’s sake. Take all the blame, swallow the grievances, whatever the Qiu Family says goes," Shi Lan said.

"Is that... okay?"

"Your mother has already taken a strong dislike to Qiu Tianyi’s mama’s boy antics and your father’s actions of selling his daughter for benefits. As long as you continue to show weakness, you will definitely achieve your goal," Shi Lan explained, "Moreover, I just came from Shuangshi. That Qiu boy actually had the audacity to target Peak. Now that Mr. Yan has caught him by the tail, you just need to subtly let slip the fact that Qiu Tianyi offended an industry big shot to your father. In the end, he will weigh the pros and cons and call off the marriage."

"At that point, in front of both families, you can openly break with Qiu Tianyi. That would be the short-term victory achieved."

"But this doesn’t mean you can relax. Your father might let you off temporarily because he can’t find a better match, but he will definitely try again. There are two solutions: first, in the meantime, find someone you like who also meets your parents’ approval; second, use the next opportunity to have a final showdown with your father."

Sun Ling thought for a moment; both options seemed far from easy.

So, she sighed and said, "Let’s deal with the pressing issue first. Boss, sometimes I really envy your carefree attitude."

"My carefree attitude was bought with the sacrifice of all my kinship ties, you envy that?" Shi Lan glanced at her, "Stop daydreaming and just focus on getting every current step right. But Dr. Sun, when you taught me about dating back then, you seemed so knowledgeable. You really don’t have someone?"

"Uhh..." Sun Ling scratched her head and then said, "In college, I had a crush on a senior, but he had a girlfriend, and we’ve lost touch for a long time."

"What type was he?"

"The brooding type..." Sun Ling said, "The kind that makes you want to buy him candy."
