Qin Jiatong was thinking very carefully. She was a younger sister and was on the same level as Qin Yiyi.
Qin Yiyi was also her older sister.
It was fine if she didn’t listen to what she said.
But that was not the case when it came to Fang Yingxue.
She was Qin Yiyi’s biological mother!
Her biological mother.
The person who gave birth to her!
If Qin Yiyi continued to be like this and didn’t care about anything and didn’t listen, when word got out, it would drown her!
This was a rumor that could kill people.
Moreover, weren’t all the rumors she spread just rumors?
However, these were all the facts!
Although Qin Jiatong didn’t appear, she deliberately picked up a phone call before Fang Yingxue left.
She had asked the people in the company to call her early on.
There was only one instruction. It was to scare Fang Yingxue and make her think that the company was really going to collapse soon.
As expected, after Fang Yingxue heard this phone call, she was scared out of her wits.
Her expression was extremely ugly.
“What’s wrong? Who called? Is it someone from the company? What did they say?”
“They said that there’s a problem with dad and the situation is very serious. Furthermore, an accountant from the company has been taken away…”
Her voice dropped when she said this.
“Mom, I’m afraid we’re going bankrupt.”
She bit her lower lip tightly and suddenly looked up at Fang Yingxue with a forced smile.
“Mom, don’t worry. Even if there’s really no money at home, I’m not afraid. I’m already old now. I can go out and look for work. I can earn money to support myself.”
These words almost moved Fang Yingxue to tears.
Her eyes were red. She looked at Qin Jiatong with tears and laughter.
“Mom knows that you’re a good child. Don’t worry. Mom won’t drag you down. Mom will go look for that wretched girl right now.”
“Mom, don’t be too angry. Sister might just be angry for a moment and ignore us. When she’s calmed down and knows about Dad’s matter, she will definitely help. Sister is a very good person.”
“Only a silly girl like you says she’s nice!”
Fang Yingxue looked at Qin Jiatong with a pained expression and spoke with a tone full of pity.
“How did you become so thin these few days? Sigh, if I knew this would happen, I would have let you leave the country earlier.”
“Mom, I’m not going anywhere. I’ll stay here to accompany you and Dad.”
“I’ll accompany mom and wait for Dad to come back.”
“Good girl.”
Fang Yingxue left with a gratified look on her face.
When her figure completely disappeared, the smile on Qin Jiatong’s face disappeared without a trace.
After leaving the house, Fang Yingxue calmed down a little after being blown by the wind.
She also became troubled.
With that girl’s stubborn character, it was probably useless for her to go a few more times.
But if she didn’t go…
Or should she go to the Gu family first and take a look?
Perhaps they could make an exception and let her see Old Master Gu?
Thinking of this, Fang Yingxue’s heart started to move.
If she could really see Old Master Gu, she would beg him to save her Old Qin.
She was only asking him for a favor, not asking for money from his family.
It was very simple.
Besides, she had heard that the old man had obtained a lot of good things from her daughter.
Therefore, she stood in front of the Gu family’s courtyard with a relaxed and natural expression.
When she spoke to the butler, she straightened her back and looked down on him.
“Butler, right? I want to see Old Master Gu. Please help me pass the message.”
The butler looked at Fang Yingxue in front of him and was a little speechless.
He definitely knew this person.
As the head housekeeper of the Gu family, he often accompanied old master Gu to attend banquets and so on.
He still had some impression of this Mrs. Qin who would occasionally find an opportunity to make her presence known.
Recently, it was because of Qin Yiyi.
No matter what, the Qin family was always the home of Miss Qin Yiyi.
It was definitely impossible to say that they were completely separated by blood relations.
Besides, Old Master Gu had asked him to keep an eye on the Qin family, so he probably wanted to help Miss Qin Yiyi avoid trouble.
As a butler, he naturally couldn’t drag his boss down!
At this moment, when he saw Fang Yingxue suddenly appear, the butler thought that she had encountered something.
Could it be that something had happened to Miss Qin Yiyi?
When he thought of this, he became nervous. “Mrs. Qin, Why are you here? Did something happen to Miss Qin Yiyi?”
“How could it be her? She’s fine.”
Fang Yingxue looked at the butler and urged her. “Hurry up and help me inform him that I’m Qin Yiyi’s mother.”
Instinctively, Fang Yingxue felt that instead of saying a thousand words, it would be more effective to just say that one sentence!
Old Master Gu was sitting in the study.
They had just had a video conference.
He felt a little strange when he saw the butler walk in empty-handed,
“Didn’t I ask you to go out and make tea? Why did you come back empty-handed?”
The butler exclaimed and raised his hand to gently pat his forehead,
“I forgot about this matter. But Old Sir, someone outside is looking for you. She said that she is Miss Qin Yiyi’s biological mother.”
The butler knew Fang Yingxue.
But he chose to speak in such a manner.
“The other party said that she has something to tell you when she sees you. She’s waiting at our door right now.”
“Would you like to meet that person or not?”
If it were an ordinary person, no, even if it were not an ordinary person, they could not just meet Old Master Gu because they said so.
They would have to make an appointment first.
But now… This matter concerned Miss Qin Yiyi..
The butler did not know what old master Gu would do.
“Fang Yingxue?”
Old Master Gu then frowned and paused for a moment. He gestured to the butler, “Go and pour me some tea first.”
This meant that he had to avoid her for a while.
Mm, he should probably call Yiyi about this matter, right?
Qin Yiyi didn’t expect that Fang Yingxue would actually have the guts to take the initiative to look for Old Master Gu.
After picking up the phone, she was filled with apology.
“Grandpa Gu, please don’t mind. It’s all my fault for causing trouble for you…”
“What are you talking about, lass? What do you mean by causing trouble for me? Why are you being so polite to your Grandpa Gu?”
On the other side of the phone, a hint of warmth flashed across Qin Yiyi’s eyes.
But in the next moment, she laughed lightly.
“Grandpa Gu, aren’t you not at home?”
When Old Master Gu heard this, he nodded without a second thought. “Yes, yes, I’m in a meeting right now. I’m very busy.”
So, when would he have the time to meet those idle people who were in a mess?!
After hanging up, the housekeeper just happened to walk in with tea.
Old Master Gu glanced at him. “Go out and tell that person that I have something to do outside. Tell her to come back another day.”
It was obvious why Mrs. Qin had come.
However, she had found the wrong person for this matter!
Qin Yiyi sat on the sofa. When she raised her head, she could see the sky outside the window.
White clouds floated in the wind.
A hint of coldness flashed across her eyes. She chuckled.
She didn’t want to lose face in front of her daughter.
But why didn’t she do well? When she went to the Gu family for help, didn’t she still use her daughter’s name?
It was really…
If she had the ability, she would have solved it herself.
It had to be something or the other…
But she was still the mother who gave birth to her. Forget it, forget it, I can’t be bothered to think about it!
But in the end, she was still a little angry. Qin Yiyi turned around and secretly sent some good things to the relevant departments.
Mm, they were all things that could make that cheap father of hers drink a few more pots inside!
Therefore, everyone outside thought that this matter was pretty much settled.
How many years will the guy named Qin stay there….
Suddenly, some people from the company were summoned and questioned.
There were even two people who were taken away directly!
Everyone was anxious.
Fang Yingxue didn’t even dare to return home.
There was a dead silence. Most importantly, she promised Qin Jiatong that she would solve the problem.
But now, she did not even go to see that wretched girl.
She went to Old Master Gu’s place twice in a row, but the reply she received was that he was not at home.
After a few times, how could Fang Yingxue not know that the other party did not want to see her!
Snob!
She could not enter the Gu family, so she tried to go to other people’s houses.
Naturally, she returned empty-handed.
In the end, she did not have a single cent on her. She could not even find a place to borrow money.
She could only return home dejectedly.
However, when she returned home, all she saw was Qin Jiatong, whose face was pale and who looked like she had lost a lot of weight.
Fang Yingxue was shocked. “Tongtong, why are you so thin? Your face is so ugly. Are you sick?”
“I’m fine. Mom, where have you been these past few days? No one answered my calls.”
“Mom, it’s good that you’re fine.”
“As long as we’re fine, everything else is just a small matter.”
Fang Yingxue felt extremely guilty when she heard this.
Look, Tongtong is so sensible.
But what about herself?
For the sake of her face, she clearly had a chance, but she refused to go…
She did not see Qin Jiatong turn her head and wink at the butler.
By the time Fang Yingxue came back to her senses, the butler had already spoken in her ear with heartache.
“Madam, you don’t know. Miss Tong has been worried about you for the past two days and hasn’t slept much. During the day, the shareholders of the company would call from time to time to urge her. Some relevant departments also called… Miss Tong’s mouth is full of bubbles from anxiety. She has only had so little porridge for the past two days…”
“Madam, it’s just nice that you’re back now. Hurry up and persuade Miss Tong.”
Fang Yingxue’s eyes reddened when she heard these words.
She reached out to hug Qin Jiatong. “Silly you. Is this a problem that a child like you can solve?”
“If those shareholders call again, you won’t pick up. Or you can ask the butler to say that you’re not here.”
At this moment, Fang Yingxue was completely blaming those shareholders of the company in her heart.
If you have the ability, go and settle this matter yourself.
What kind of ability is it to harass my daughter?!
She glanced at Qin Jiatong and suddenly stood up.
“Tongtong, don’t worry. You stay at home and have a good meal and rest. Mom will definitely settle this matter.”
She couldn’t watch Tongtong lose her future because of this matter!
“Mom, where are you going… Mom, come back…”
Fang Yingxue said, “Mom still has something to do.” Then she turned around and walked out.
The housekeeper saw everything and bowed respectfully before leaving.
This second young miss, it was better not to offend her!
Look, she even used her own mother!
Outside.
This time, Fang Yingxue directly took a taxi to Qin Yiyi’s place.
In the end, it was grandmother Fang who opened the door.
When she saw Fang Yingxue, a hint of surprise flashed across the old lady’s eyes.
But in the next moment, she snorted unhappily.
“What are you doing here? Our place can’t accommodate you. Hurry up and go back to your Qin family.”
This daughter of hers was raised in vain.
She wasn’t considerate at all!
“Mom, don’t be anxious. I really have something to do.”
She squeezed in when Grandma Fang was not paying attention.
She almost pushed Grandma Fang down.
Grandpa Fang, who came out from the kitchen, saw this scene and his face turned green.
“Fang Yingxue, what are you doing? Why? Do you want to push your mom down? Are you going to hit me in the next moment?”
Fang Yingxue also felt wronged. “Dad, What are you talking about? It’s mom who stopped me from coming in just now.”
“I’m here to look for Yiyi. Where is she? Is she in the bedroom?”
Fang yingxue frowned as she spoke.
“Dad, Mom, it’s not that I want to criticize you guys, but you can’t spoil the child like this. She’s already so old, it’s only right for her to do something.”
It wasn’t like she was some real rich lady or something.
What was she putting on airs for?
If she had to say it, it was all because of her parents’ pampering!
She stood up and walked towards the bedroom. “She’s inside, right? I’ll go in and wake her up.”
“Hey, don’t. She…”
“Qin Yiyi, what’s wrong with you? Why are you hiding in the study while your grandparents are outside?”
Qin Yiyi’s slightly lazy voice rang out.
“How my grandparents pamper me is their business. It has nothing to do with you, right?”
She really had a big mouth!
Qin Yiyi didn’t dwell on it with Fang Yingxue. There were still people waiting for her outside.
Behind her, Fang Yingxue’s face was pale.
She was so angry that her entire body was trembling,
This wretched girl, she actually ignored her like this!
Fang Yingxue, who was holding in her breath, felt that she couldn’t let Qin Yiyi leave just like that.
She also ran out. “Dad, Mom, I still have something to do. I’ll leave first. I’ll come and see you guys another day.”
Following her voice, she had already run out of the door.
Grandma Fang was still steaming Qin Yiyi’s favorite pancakes in the kitchen.
Unfortunately, she ran away just like that.
Grandma Fang, who had been busy for quite a while, also threw the apron in her hand in a huff.
“What did this Fang Yingxue do?”
Could it be that she just came for a walk?
Grandpa Fang retracted his gaze from the living room outside and sighed.
“Let Yiyi handle it. It’s not something for us to worry about.”
What was Fang Yingxue doing here?
She knew her daughter, but she didn’t know her father!
What could Fang Yingxue be doing here? Wasn’t it all for Yiyi?!
But just now, she didn’t seem to make a sound?
Grandpa Fang’s mind was filled with matters and he was absent-minded the entire day.
It wasn’t until he saw Qin Yiyi return at night.
He waved at Qin Yiyi. “Come here. Did anything strange happen today?”
“No, Grandpa, what do you want to say?”
Grandpa Fang thought for a moment, glanced at his wife who was still busy in the kitchen, and whispered, “If there’s really bad news, don’t tell your grandmother.”
He was afraid that she would be worried.
Qin Yiyi thought that Fang Yingxue would stop there and give up willingly.
But she didn’t expect…
The next morning, she was ambushed by members of the press.
Reporters swarmed over!
One by one, they wanted to throw microphones at Qin Yiyi’s face.
“May I ask what Miss Qin thinks about your father’s matter?”
“Miss Qin, I heard that your mother came to look for you several times. Are you really going to let her die?”
Everyone was talking.
Fang Yingxue, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly squeezed in from behind the crowd.
She knelt in front of Qin Yiyi with a plop.
“Yiyi, save your father. Yiyi, you are a good child. Mom will kowtow to you…”
Qin Yiyi lowered her eyes and quickly turned her body to avoid her..
