However, when Yan Chen wanted to further cooperate with the Qin Family, Old Master Qin was worried that the relationship between the Qin Family and Larilo would be discovered, so he temporarily delayed the cooperation with Yan Chen.
As for the reason, it was simple—it was "his" own death—"he" was already dead, and his descendants did not yet know about the original agreement, so they did not dare to rashly pledge their allegiance.
At that time, Xinjie City had just been established, and the three major institutions still needed old established families like the Qin Family to establish order, so Yan Chen did not dare to put too much pressure on the Qin Family.
Thus... the Qin Family and Yan Chen reached a state of having a relationship that was not very close.
According to Larilo's speculation, it was likely Old Master Qin's conservative approach that aroused Yan Chen's suspicion.
