Chapter 448: Chapter 449: Familiar (2)
Qin Zhiyou still looked regretful, “I didn’t even demand that Lu’s mother be cured of her cancer. Just restoring her to the state of the day before was too kind of me, don’t you think?”
“Oh, that’s simple. If this Ms. Cai chops off her own leg, I’ll cooperate with you right away.”
Upon hearing this, Cai’s mother looked at Qin Zhiyou’s face again. Even though it was in broad daylight, she still shuddered with fear.
When Qin Zhiyou spoke this time, he didn’t sound as fierce or hateful as Lu Weixi had just been. He merely raised an eyebrow, hooking the corner of his lips in a smirk, his tone smooth. The words he nonchalantly uttered, however, were incredibly ruthless and decisive!
Bai Changyou’s eyes darken, “So there’s nothing to discuss then?”
Qin Zhiyou considered, furrowed his brows, and reluctantly opened his mouth, “Well, considering you are Weixi’s biological father, I’ll offer you a discounted option for the last time if you’re willing.”
Although his gut told him that Qin Zhiyou wouldn’t make a fair offer, Bai Changyou still patiently asked one last time, “Tell me, what are your terms?”
Qin Zhiyou smirked, “This condition is quite simple, I’ve mentioned it to you before. It’s this: Divorce the Cai woman, give all your property to Weixi, and I promise to collaborate with you. Not only will I cooperate, but I will also help the Bai Family become China’s top company.”
His tone was sincerity personified, as if he genuinely had Bai Changyou’s best interests at heart and was pushing himself to make the offer.
Bai Changyou glared at him, snorting coldly, “Entrust all property to her? That’s the same as giving it to you, isn’t it? Mr. Qin, what a clever scheme!”
Moreover, he worked hard all his life only to have the company benefit an outsider! If only Lu Weixi had kept the surname Bai, but she had changed her last name, and now she had nothing to do with him!
Qin Zhiyou nodded assertively, showing his white teeth, “Exactly. We’re already family, and I won’t let my own wealth be damaged. The Bai Family will surely flourish under my stewardship. Maybe the Bai Family could even become one of the most famous building companies. Wouldn’t you reconsider?”
Bai Changyou glanced at Qin Zhiyou, then at Lu Weixi, his eyes suddenly turning sharp, “Qin Zhiyou, very well done, well done! Weixi has indeed picked a remarkable husband!”
Had his voice not sounded so bitter, anyone listening might’ve thought he was praising them.
But Qin Zhiyou, shameless as always, proudly puffed out his chest and nodded in agreement, “Of course Weixi has a good eye. Otherwise, why would she have forsaken darkness for light and married me back then?”
At these words, Qin Zhigu’s mouth twitched. And Fang Rushuang, eyeing him intently, had a mysterious glint in her eyes.
Bai Changyou scoffed coldly, “This condition, you’ve already proposed before and I’ve rejected. Want the wealth of the Bai Family? Not a chance!”
“Hey, that’s not the right way to put it,” Qin Zhiyou shook his head, “How much is your little run-down Bai company worth? When compared to our Hanhai, it’s merely pocket change. It’s not a big deal. You value it too much. I’m merely thinking of Weixi, considering your age, worrying that you won’t be able to handle things in the future. It’s for your benefit that I even consider stepping in to clean up this mess. Otherwise, for such a small sum of money, begging or kneeling, I wouldn’t even bother.”
The implication was clear, ‘I am doing you a favor by even considering it!’
