Wen Yuzhen was surprised. Then, she gave Qiao Qing a look, “Did you buy it for that girl?”Qi Yusen didn’t confirm nor deny. Instead, he asked, “Didn’t you say you liked her?”
Wen Yuzhen choked up a little and then explained, “It’s true that I like her. But she’s not a part of the family. Why would you spend $200M for an unrelated girl? Tiantian is different. She’s an adopted daughter of the Qi family.”
Qi Yuyang and Qi Yeli nervously looked over to Qiao Qing.
Qi Yusen narrowed his eyes as he checked out Chu Tian. Then he said expressionlessly, “Grandma, if you don’t want to regret anything in the future, then don’t ask too many questions. When the time comes, you’ll understand why I did what I did today.”
Then, Qi Yusen turned to leave. Qi Yuyang and Qi Yeli followed.
Jun Yexuan also walked out with Qiao Qing.
Wen Yuzhen watched them leave. She was a little confused about what Qi Yusen had said.
Chu Tian, on the other hand, felt cold and her face was completely white.
Qi Yusen’s words indicated that Qiao Qing was related to the Qi family!
This meant Qiao Qing may enter the family one day and steal all the spotlight!
How could that happen!?
As she thought about it, Chu Tian tightened her first.
Wen Yuzhen saw the unusualness on Chu Tian’s face and asked, “Tiantian, what’s wrong?”
Chu Tian wiped off her nervousness and grinned, “Grandma, I’m okay.”
Wen Yuzhen patted her head, “Good kid, don’t be sad. It’s okay we didn’t get the sandalwood. I will buy some other medicine to help you improve your health.”
…
After everyone got back to the Qi house, Qiao Qing accepted Qi Yusen’s sandalwood and went to the lab. She completely immersed herself into the medicine-making process.
Qi Yuyang stared at Qi Yusen with confusion, “Brother, why did you say all those things at the auction? Grandma is simple-minded and won’t get it, but that girl is very sly. What if she guesses it and tries to harm our sister?”
Qi Yusen, “I’m more worried that she won’t try anything.”
Then, he said to Han Zhi, “Send some more people to protect Qingqing. At the same time, keep an eye on Chu Tian.”
Han Zhi, “Yes, sir.”
Qi Yuyang instantly understood Qi Yusen, “Oh~ So you are trying to catch Chu Tian red-handed in order to get her into trouble later.”
“I don’t need to design anything to get her into trouble.” Qi Yusen said, “I just want everyone to feel guilty for a while. That way, we get more power in this situation.”
Qi Yunyan chimed in, “Our big brother may actually be a fox.”
Jun Yexuan was not okay with this, “So for that, you endanger Qingqing?”
Qi Yusen rolled his eyes, “With Qiao Qing’s capabilities, nobody can hurt her. Plus, you and I are both protecting her. Are you suggesting that we can’t keep her from harm?!”
Jun Yexuan was taken aback, “I’m just being cautious! I just care too much. I know you’re right, but I don’t want her to be the lure!”
Before Qi Yusen could answer, there was the loud noise of car brakes coming from outside.
Everyone looked outside and saw Mu Jinghang got out of his car and anxiously rush into the living room.
Qi Yuyang mocked, “Yo, what a rare guest. Aren’t you in your honey pot every day with that girlfriend of yours? How did you two get separated?”
Mu Jinghang ignored him and walked up to Jun Yexuan, “Third brother, lend me some people. My wife ran away!”
“Pffttt..”
“Hahahaha…”
“Ehem, ehem…”
