"Why are you here today? Have you thought it through?"
"It's nothing. I just feel like I should help her. After all, I owe her too much."
"What's the point? Since you have that kind of capability, why don't you choose to show it? That way, no one will bully her," the stall owner looked at Ye Feng and said helplessly. He really did not understand what this young man was thinking.
"It hasn't reached the point where I have to reveal everything. But now, I really should make it up to her. At the very least, I should protect her well."
"Forget it, I don't know what you're thinking. Let's not talk about this."
While Ye Feng was talking to the food stall owner outside, in the Xu Group's top floor conference room, Xu Tian was also badmouthing Xu Yaqing.
"Grandpa, you don't even know what Xu Yaqing did today."
"She actually let that trash, Ye Feng, drive her on his electric motorcycle to see Manager Qin. Isn't that an obvious sign that she's not taking things seriously?"
"What? Are you serious?"
"Of course, Grandfather. Why would I lie to you about something like this? Besides, she wouldn't listen to me no matter what I said when I tried to persuade her to switch to a car."
"This Xu Yaqing really doesn't know her place. She doesn't want to stay in the Xu family anymore," Xu Wanghai said angrily.
"That's right. Grandpa, you have to get her to come back quickly. Don't anger Manager Qin, otherwise because of her our family will suffer."
Seeing that Xu Wanghai was angered by his words, Xu Tian quickly continued speaking, "Grandpa, I think we should kick Xu Yaqing out of the Xu family right now, lest she implicate our family."
Xu Yanyan wanted to use this opportunity to chase Xu Yaqing out of the Xu family as well. "That's right, that's right. I also think we should kick Xu Yaqing out of the Xu family."
Everyone from the Xu family rushed to agree.
"Are you guys discussing how to kick me out?"
At this moment, Xu Yaqing pushed open the door and walked in.
"Xu Yaqing, we're having a meeting. Can't you knock on the door? Do you have any manners?" Xu Tian shouted at Xu Yaqing.
"You still have the cheek to come back? You didn't get the contract and yet you still have the cheek to show your face?! If I were you, I wouldn't have come back to embarrass myself!"
Xu Yanyan also criticized Xu Yaqing.
Xu Yaqing ignored the two and walked straight towards Xu Wanghai.
"Grandpa, I got the contract."
"What?! You got the contract?! Did you get a fake contract to trick Grandpa with?"
Xu Tian had been to Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals before, but he wasn't even let in. He didn't believe that Xu Yaqing could get the contract.
"Do you think I'm an idiot like you, using a fake contract to fool Grandpa?"
Xu Yaqing suddenly felt that her cousin's brain seemed to be lacking something. How could he say such stupid things?
"How could you have gotten it? We went to Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals so many times, but we couldn't get the contract. How could you have gotten it?!"
"You can't get the contract because you're not capable enough. Besides, won't Grandfather be able to tell if it's real after taking a look?"
When Xu Tian heard that, he immediately realized that it wouldn't be good for Xu Yaqing to use a fake contract to fool Grandpa.
Why would she do that? It was impossible. So she actually managed to get the contract?
Xu Tian paled at the thought.
Meanwhile, Xu Wanghai had already taken the reading glasses from his assistant and put them on.
Xu Wanghai read it seriously. He wasn't afraid that it was a fake contract. He was afraid that Xu Yaqing would sign a contract that was without any profits.
Xu Tian looked at Xu Wanghai nervously.
"This contract is real. And it's far more profitable than I expected."
After reading the contract, Xu Wanghai was pleasantly surprised. The contract was unexpectedly good.
Xu Tian collapsed on the chair.
"Xu Tian, have you forgotten our bet?"
Xu Yaqing reminded Xu Tian kindly.
"Ye Feng isn't here. Even if I wanted to call him brother, I wouldn't have the chance."
Xu Tian tried to make excuses using Ye Feng's absence.
"It's fine. Since Ye Feng isn't around, I can record a video for him."
Xu Yaqing wanted to call Ye Feng over, but Ye Feng didn't want to have too many dealings with the Xu family, so she gave up on this idea and instead went for the next best thing— recording a video for Ye Feng to see.
"He's not here, how can he…"
"Grandpa, you were the witness back then, and now Xu Tian is going back on his word. What do you think?"
Xu Yaqing interrupted Xu Tian and turned to Xu Wanghai.
"Xu Tian, if you're willing to bet, you have to admit defeat. There are no sore losers in our Xu family."
Xu Wanghai knew what to do. In front of so many people, even if he wanted to, he couldn't help Xu Tian.
Hearing Xu Wanghai's words, Xu Tian could only hang his head low and stand up.
"Here, look at the camera. One, two, three, begin."
Xu Yaqing quickly took out her phone and switched on the video function.
"Brother Feng, it was my fault in the past. I'm sorry," Xu Tian said reluctantly.
In his heart, he thought, "I will definitely make you pay the price."
After recording the video, Xu Yaqing didn't plan to stay any longer and stood up to leave.
"Grandpa, I'll go back and sort out some documents first. I still have to meet with Manager Qin tomorrow afternoon."
With that, Xu Yaqing turned around and left the meeting room.
"Grandpa, is Xu Yaqing really going to be responsible for this project?" Xu Tian asked Xu Wanghai as soon as Xu Yaqing left.
"Of course. Otherwise, who else can I give it to? I've already promised Yaqing, so it's not easy to change it."
Xu Wanghai refused Xu Tian's unspoken request.
Seeing Xu Wanghai's reaction, Xu Tian knew that he couldn't say anything else, or he would anger Xu Wanghai.
"Alright, let's end the meeting. Let's return to our posts and work hard. We'll be busy from now on."
With that said, Xu Wanghai took the lead to leave, and the others slowly followed.
"Xu Tian, you have to think of something. Grandpa has given such an important project to Xu Yaqing, so the position of the heir might not be yours anymore."
Xu Yanyan walked with Xu Tian and tried to persuade him.
"I know. Don't worry, I'll think of a way. If I'm not living well, no one else should live comfortably either," Xu Tian said with a dark face and clenched fists.
"That's good. You have to get to it as soon as possible. Once Xu Yaqing obtains a position in the company, will there still be room for us to speak?"
Xu Yanyan used to be Xu Yaqing's superior. Although they were cousin sisters, Xu Yanyan had always been jealous that Xu Yaqing was prettier than her, so she assigned all the dirty work to Xu Yaqing.
"I've got an idea. We can both go and beg Grandpa later tonight."
"Yeah, sure."
Xu Tian didn't believe that his position as the eldest grandson was less important than a lowly granddaughter. Besides, his grandfather had always been on his side. If that was the case, there was a good chance that he could persuade his grandfather.
When Ye Feng, who was at the entrance of the corporation, saw Xu Yaqing walk out, he ignored the stall owner and walked straight towards Xu Yaqing.
When Xu Yaqing saw Ye Feng walking over, she mysteriously handed over her phone.
