Chapter 69: Chapter 66 The Matter of Corporate Marriage

A hidden fire smoldered in the depths of Pan Yutong’s eyes.

This time, it was supposed to be Old Master Qi and Shen Qingxiang arranging a meal for the two of them to discuss the union of two renowned enterprises in City A.

But she never expected Qi Longbing to bring this woman, turning the whole affair into a mess. Could it be that Qi Longbing really liked that woman?

However, Qi Longbing didn’t care, which meant the rest of the Qi Family had no objections either.

Soon, Shen Qingxiang walked briskly to her side. "Oh, Yutong, wasn’t it agreed that we would all have a meal together? How could you leave first?"

Then, Shen Qingxiang glanced at Qi Longbing, a hint of blame in her voice. "Long Bing, why didn’t you ask her to stay? Yutong has just taken up the position of Vice President at Warner World; she’s taken time out of her busy schedule to accompany you!"

Her words were very clear, primarily to establish Pan Yutong’s current status. She was a genuine young lady from a prominent family, not merely a returnee from overseas or just a rich, idle heiress.

The value of this particular heiress was absolutely a thousand percent solid.

Although Warner World had only recently arrived in City A, and its influence wasn’t as extensive as the Qi Imperial Court’s, as a leading enterprise in the global real estate industry, it was already among the world’s top 500. Its overseas influence was also not to be underestimated.

If the Qi Family could form an alliance with Warner, it would undoubtedly be a thousand percent win-win situation.

Unexpectedly, Qi Longbing replied indifferently, "Aunty, Miss Pan has already said she has an urgent matter. Don’t delay her business."

"..." Pan Yutong was so angry she couldn’t speak, her complexion flushing in waves.

Fortunately, she already knew what Qi Longbing was like; he wasn’t one to mince words or show favor to anyone. Everything was according to his own will.

However, she had never imagined he would be so ruthless towards her.

Shen Qingxiang hadn’t expected Qi Longbing to brush her off as well. For a moment, she felt unable to save face and was even more annoyed inwardly.

If it weren’t for Qi Tianrun dying in a plane crash during a business trip, leaving her all alone, she wouldn’t have fallen to her current state.

Fortunately, she had given birth to a son; otherwise, it would have been even more difficult to get by in the Qi Family. The son she bore was Qi Lingfeng, Qi Longbing’s half-brother.

When Qi Tianrun died, Old Master Qi had considered Qi Lingfeng, who was only sixteen at the time, too young and thus unable to take the helm of the Qi Imperial Court. Therefore, control naturally fell into the hands of the elder son, Qi Longbing, who had now held power for many years.

And indeed, Qi Longbing had done well, managing the Qi Imperial Court in an orderly fashion. Hence, it was only natural for Qi Longbing to continue at the helm.

However, the better he performed, the more he became the target of envy. The grudges within the Qi Family couldn’t be explained in a single day.

It was said that Shen Qingxiang had asked her son Qi Lingfeng, who was studying abroad in Dubai, to come home to visit family several times. However, he always declined, citing a busy academic schedule and numerous obligations. As for the real reason, no one knew.

Therefore, the two brothers could be said to be strangers to each other, not seeing each other even once in three years, let alone exchanging phone calls.

At that moment, Hua Xiaomo, who had just finished using the restroom, happened to come out, her gaze meeting Old Master Qi’s, who was sitting there, directly.

Immediately, Hua Xiaomo made a silly face. Old folks generally don’t like women who are too mischievous or sassy, so I don’t need to pretend to be too proper.
