“What?!”
“What?!”
Another echo effect.
Jun Yexuan’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pan.
Mu Jinghang laughed, “What did Gong Yi say before? He said, you better never find yourself on his turf. So, third brother, are you going to accompany Qingqing or n… AH!”
Jun Yexuan kicked him hard.
Qi Shengkuan’s face looked a little sick, “My dearest granddaughter is leaving the country?!”
He wasn’t done spoiling her!
Qi Yusen said, “That’s up to her.”
Jun Yexuan nervously shot Qiao Qing a look.
Qiao Qing took a second before she nodded, “I’m going.”
Jun Yexuan, “…”
Qiao Qing patted his hand to comfort him.
Jun Yexuan was not at all comforted.
Qi Chengyu said, “I will accompany my sister. After all, she’s used to eating my cooking.”
Qiao Qing, “…”
Qi Yusen glared at him, “You really think you’re a professional chef? Don’t forget what your actual job is.”
Qi Chengyu was stifled.
Qi Yunyan’s lips curled up, “Out of all the brothers, I’m the only unemployed one. I’ll go with little sister.”
Qi Yusen said, “Out of all the little brothers, you are the best at managing a business. The only reason why I didn’t let you work for the corporation was because of your legs. Now that you’re healed, you’ll need to start caring for the family business. In the next little while, you should work with me to train.”
Qi Yunyan, “… What do you mean by this?”
Qi Yusen said straight up, “What I mean is, I’m handing you the company. I’m going with our sister.”
“In your dreams!” Qi Yunyan then cursed, “I object!”
“Exactly! Big brother, you sure want it all! I’m self-employed. I can go with our little sister!”
“Can you stop being so selfish!”
“Big brother, you just want all of our sister’s time!”
The brothers started to bicker.
Qi Yusen didn’t comment. Instead, he turned to look at Qi Shengkuan and Wen Yuzhen. Though their expressions didn’t change, they somehow seemed sad.
“Grandma, grandpa, to shoulder the burden of running the family business, I was forced to give up my dream of becoming an artist. All these years, I’ve ensured the Qi family remained influential and powerful. Towards my responsibilities, I’ve never ever complained. Today would be the first time I’ve ever asked for time off for vacation. You can’t even grant me that much?”
Qi Yunyan, “…”
The other Qi brothers, “…”
Wen Yuzhen revealed some pain when she heard this.
“Plus,” Qi Yusen continued, “I’ve lived with our sister for half a year. I’m very familiar with her daily habits and her health. With me by her side, she’ll be very well taken care of.”
The Qi brothers, “…”
Wen Yuzhen and Qi Shengkuan exchanged glances. They thought what he said made sense.
“On top of that,” Qi Yusen decided to strike his final attack, “I’m almost 30 and you keep on rushing me to get a girlfriend. However, in this country, other than my sister, I don’t find any woman worthy. If I get to go on this trip, I can perhaps come back with a granddaughter-in-law for you.”
The Qi brothers, “…”
Even Jun Yexuan and Mu Jinghang felt that Qi Yusen was being far too desperate.
The big brother will always be the big brother. It was a shame that he never got to be a lawyer or a judge.
He always knew where everyone’s Achilles heel was. Everything he said struck his audience’s heart.
However…. Jun Yexuan lifted an eyebrow.
What did he mean by, “Other than my sister, I don’t find any woman worthy”?!
