Chapter 940 Huo Sinian's Engagement

"I don't dare to urge my aunt, but urging my cousin will do." Qin Jiangye was very good at stirring up trouble. "She lives with Huo Zhizhou and has a child, so it should be easier to urge her."

"You brat, I think you're deliberately trying to make things difficult for me," Old Master Qin said, feigning anger.

"I think you're just biased," Qin Jiangye clicked his tongue. "You care about the marriages of your three grandsons, but you don't even bother to ask about your little cousin and aunt's marriages. Sigh."

Old Master Qin became anxious: "When did I say I didn't care?"

Qin Jiangye continued to stir things up: "You want to know why you've never asked about their relationship status?"

Grandpa Qin: "Isn't it because they don't like it?"

Not to mention An'an, even Ruan Ruan.

He would definitely be unhappy if he urged An'an, and even if Ruan Ruan didn't say it, she would probably feel upset inside.

He had finally managed to improve the relationship, and he didn't want to ruin it again.

"I don't like them either, so why are you saying this?" Qin Jiangye still spoke in that drawn-out tone. "In the end, I was wrong about what I said. You favor them and don't love me."

Old Master Qin: "..."

Old Master Qin: "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

Qin Jiangye: "If my cousin said that, you would definitely be anxious and worried that you said the wrong thing, but if I say it, you will think that I did it on purpose. Sigh, that's the difference."

Old Master Qin: "..."

This was the first time Old Master Qin didn't know how to answer.

Even though I know this kid has a sharp tongue, I still feel a little emotional when I hear these words.

I'm worried that I might actually hurt him.

After all, Qin Jiangye visited him the most and chatted with him the most, and he always tried his best to make him happy.

Most importantly, Qin Jiangye had never had a father's love since childhood, and although his mother loved him, she was weak.

To be honest, apart from the soft girl, Jiang Ye doesn't seem to be doing so well.

"Grandpa won't say it anymore," Old Master Qin suddenly said.

Qin Jiangye was stunned for a moment.

Weren't we always bickering before?

What's wrong with me today?

"But you still need to manage the company well." Old Master Qin's face turned serious again.

"It's okay if I can't manage it well. I still have my little cousin, right?" Qin Jiangye said casually. "If I really can't make it, my little cousin definitely won't have the heart to watch me starve to death."

"I can't bear it." Jiang Ruan walked over.

Old Master Qin: "A soft-hearted girl."

"How can you be so heartless to treat someone as cute as me?" Qin Jiangye smiled, his eyes showing a touch of casual cuteness.

Jiang Ruan wasn't buying it: "Are you as cute as Sui Sui?"

"Of course, my cuteness is different from Sui Sui's." Qin Jiangye still had that cheeky look on his face. "But speaking of which, Grandpa was just talking about you two."

Jiang Ruan: "Hmm?"

Old Master Qin: "?"

Old Master Qin looked puzzled, but when he realized what was happening, his pupils widened instantly.

"He just said that you and your cousin-in-law have a child and are living together, so you should get married." Qin Jiangye said this while deliberately glancing at Old Master Qin, and the smile on his lips never faded.

Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.

He subconsciously looked at Old Master Qin.

Old Master Qin sat there obediently, like a child, shaking his head: "No, I was the one who said it."

Qin Jiangye: "Did you say it, or did I say it?"

Old Master Qin wanted to give this kid a good beating.

The grandfather and grandson even used their casual conversations to trick him!

“Grandpa wouldn’t talk about such trivial things.” Jiang Ruan saw through everything but didn’t expose him. “It’s more like what you’re saying.”

Qin Jiangye: "?"

Grandpa Qin was immediately delighted.

He knew that the soft-spoken girl cared about him.

"Is the reason you're suddenly urging others to get married because you want to get married too?" Jiang Ruan asked calmly, looking at him.

Qin Jiangye: "How could I possibly think that?"

“Grandpa, could you arrange a couple of blind dates for Jiang Ye when you have time?” Jiang Ruan said in a serious tone, with a hint of authority. “He’s shy and embarrassed to ask.”

Qin Jiangye: "?"

Qin Jiangye's forehead was covered in question marks.

Qin Jiangye: "Is this still my innocent and adorable little cousin?"

"This is my little cousin who's doing this for your own good." Jiang Ruan emphasized the words "for your own good."

“Alright,” Old Master Qin agreed. “I’ll make the arrangements tomorrow.”

Qin Jiangye: "..."

In the end, they shot themselves in the foot.

——

The peaceful happiness here contrasts sharply with Qin Mo's situation.

After waiting for about another week, they all received some news.

Huo Sinian is getting engaged.

got engaged?

Qin Mo was surprised at the time.

If this news is true, then Huo Sinian's obsession or possessiveness towards Lin Tan can be almost ignored. After all, when he was single, he could get away with anything if he handled things well.

But if he gets engaged, it's tantamount to handing him leverage over him.

“I’ve checked carefully, it is indeed an engagement.” After obtaining the family authorization granted by Qin Mo, Qin Luofeng spent most of his time handling Qin Mo’s affairs. “Many people in Jingzhou have received invitations.”

"Which family does the woman belong to?" Qin Mo asked.

"It's the Wen family, the family with whom he had previously discussed marriage," Qin Luofeng said. "Although the Wen family is much weaker than the Huo family, their fathers had some connections."

"Where's the invitation?" Qin Mo asked.

Qin Luofeng immediately took out his phone and showed them the photos: "So far, only these people have received the invitations, and they are still being sent out one after another."

This is the first time Qin Mo has ever failed to understand someone.

got engaged……

Normally, engagement means giving up.

Is Huo Sinian the kind of person who gives up so easily?

"What's wrong?" Qin Luofeng asked, noticing his tense expression.

"It's nothing," Qin Mo said without elaborating.

"Do you think Huo Sinian is still thinking about his sister-in-law?" Qin Luofeng guessed from his expression.

Qin Mo didn't say anything.

But it was accepted as default.

“I think Huo Sinian’s interest in your sister-in-law might just be a passing fancy. You’re already married and have a wedding, what good would it do him to still be thinking about her?” Qin Luofeng continued to analyze. “Only those threats before might have been meant to plant a seed of fear in your hearts.”

Qin Mo had guessed this idea.

But because of excessive worry, one can't help but overthink.

"I think the issue you should be most worried about right now is the photos," Qin Luofeng said bluntly. "What if Huo Sinian uses those photos to threaten you in the future, trying to steal your projects? What will you do then?"

"Just give it to him." Qin Mo didn't care at all.

"What if it's a project worth tens of billions?" Qin Luofeng asked.

Qin Mo: "It doesn't matter."

Qin Luofeng: "If he can successfully threaten someone the first time, he can successfully threaten them the second time."

Qin Mo paused.

“A man like Huo Sinian will definitely make the most of what he has,” Qin Luofeng said seriously. “His choice to give up his sister-in-law doesn’t mean he will give up on your feelings for her.”

Qin Mo frowned deeply.

If it's just a project, that's fine; you can just give up one.

But I'm afraid that's not what he's after.

"If you're really worried, go talk to Chi Yuan and Xie Yi." Qin Luofeng knew he was worried. "As outsiders, they can give you more advice and perspectives."
