“yihan, stop joking with us.”
After a long period of shock, Xu Shize was the first to speak in disbelief. “Don’t you always hate her? How could you possibly fall in love with her?”
These words made Qi Yihan look at him unhappily, his eyes cold.
Should he report to him who he liked?
Xu Shize realized that he had overstepped the boundary and quickly explained, “I was just too surprised.”
Anyway, he did not believe it.
Based on what Tang Li did before, he felt that no man could tolerate it.
Especially for people like Qi Yihan who were especially uninterested in romantic relationships.
Shangguan Mo did not believe it either, but he thought that Qi Yihan might have said it on purpose for Lucia to hear. After all, the Qi Corp and the KL Group were currently negotiating a collaboration, so he could not possibly directly show that he disliked Lucia.
At the thought of this, he nudged Xu Shize with his elbow to ask him to shut up.
Actually, Lucia had the same thoughts as Shangguan Mo. She heard about what Tang Li did last night and felt that Qi Yihan would definitely not like her because Tang Li was involved with too many men. Even if they went out for dinner together, it must be because of something.
However, when she heard Qi Yihan say that he liked his wife, she was still a little pissed off.
Lucia believed that Qi Yihan was not yet aware of how messy Tang Li was in private, so she was trying to figure out a way to let him know.
‘When they went back to the party, Lucia did not drink with them. Instead, she stood at the side holding a glass of wine and looked at Qi Yihan, thinking about how to show Qi Yihan the evidence.
At this moment, the two people chatting beside her were whispering.
“Tonight, Fourth Master actually brought his elder brother’s illegitimate son over. I heard that that illegitimate son grew up ina ghetto. The first time he went back to the Qi family, he was dressed like a hooligan. Tonight, when he puts on a suit, he actually looks impressive. Why do you think Fourth
Master did this?”
“Is there a need to ask? I heard that the internal strife inside the Qi family is quite fierce. Fourth Master must have done it on purpose.”
‘When Lucia heard this, she subconsciously looked up at the man beside Qi Yihan.
‘That man was not much younger than Qi Yihan, and his features were similar to Qi Yihan’s. However, the two of them were worlds apart in terms of auras. Anyone who looked at them would pick Qi Yihan instead of him.
At that moment, an idea suddenly struck Lucia.
A person who had lived in a ghetto since young would definitely be more ambitious than ordinary people after knowing that he was an illegitimate son, especially after witnessing the life of a rich family. Such a person would definitely be easy to use as long as he was given some benefits.
At the thought of this, she walked towards Qi Lingxuan.
It was Qi Lingxuan’s first time attending a business party like this and everyone was talking about big projects worth billions. He had finally seen something new, especially something new about his fourth uncle. Even at a party like this where so many big shots were gathered, he was still respected by
everyone. He swore in his heart that he would definitely surpass him and become the king of the business world one day.
At this moment, he saw a woman walking towards him.
This person was the princess of the KL group. He accidentally heard from Qi Tiancheng and Qi Yaolong last night.
Qi Tiancheng wanted to chase after her.
However, on the contrary, she seemed to be very interested in his fourth uncle.
At the thought of this, Qi Lingxuan already knew why Lucia came to find him. His eyes lit up.
“Hello.” Lucia walked to Qi Lingxuan and gave him a charming smile. “You look a lot like Qi Yihan. Why haven’t I seen you before?”
“He’s my fourth uncle. I wasn’t involved in family business before.”
“Isee.” Lucia glanced at the group of people who were chatting and laughing. At this time, no one noticed them, so she said, “Since you’re from the Qi family, you should know that KL is working with the Qi family. I have a few questions I want to ask you alone. Do you have time to go out and talk to me?”
Qi Lingxuan immediately put on a confused look. “I don’t know much about the company.”
“It doesn’t matter. We’re just gonna have casual talk.”
“Okay, then.”
The two of them walked towards the resting area.
As soon as they left, Xu Shize, who had been watching them quietly, picked up his glass and took a sip before following them.
At the resting area.
The moment Qi Lingxuan and Lucia walked in, Lucia asked point-blank, “You must have had a difficult time in the Qi family, right?”
Qi Lingxuan lowered his eyes as if he did not dare to answer that question.
After a while, he said, “The Qi family treats me very well. Did Miss Lucia hear some rumors?”
Lucia looked at Qi Lingxuan’s reaction and smiled. She went on asking, “Do you want to have a status in the Qi family? I can help you.”
Qi Lingxuan suddenly looked up at her, his face filled with ambition. He then concealed it and said with a struggling expression, “I don’t know what Miss Lucia is talking about.”
Lucia saw the ambition in his eyes and was more certain of her guess. Her smile widened.
“Do something for me. I’ll get my brother to help you. When the time comes, you can get involved in the collaboration between our families, and your status in the Qi family will definitely rise. What do you think?”
Qi Lingxuan was a little tempted. After a while, he asked, “What do you want me to do?”
“I just want to spend some time with Qi Yihan.”
Qi Lingxuan fell silent.
Lucia started to entice him. “You probably don’t have a high status in the Qi family. I can help you get the status you want in the Qi family.”
She felt that Qi Lingxuan would definitely be tempted by this offer because she thought he was probably bullied at home by First Madam.
As expected, Qi Lingxuan looked tempted.
Lucia looked at him and said nothing more.
After a while, Qi Lingxuan asked, “What do you want me to do?”
“Find a way to bring him to the guest room upstairs.”
The host of this kind of party would usually book some guest rooms so that the drunk people could rest and sober up.
Qi Lingxuan lowered his eyes and fell silent for a long time before nodding.
Lucia laughed. “Then I’ll see how you carry that out later.”
Qi Lingxuan nodded, and the ambition on his face was more conspicuous. “Okay.”
Lucia left first.
Qi Lingxuan looked at her back and glanced at the figure standing in the dark. The corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly and he walked towards the living room.
After the two of them left, Xu Shize walked out from the dark.
Looking in the direction of the party, a meaningful look flashed across his eyes. He shook the wine in his hand and sneered, “Humph, I won’t let you have the man my sister is into, even if she is overseas currently… Yihan hates people who scheme against him the most.”
At this point, a scheming glint flashed across his eyes before he walked towards the party.
