The extended Lincoln stopped.
Long Han Chen did not lower the car window immediately. Instead, the bodyguard in the passenger seat got out and asked, "Who are you? What do you want with our young master?"
The woman looked at the rear window, appearing somewhat nervous, and explained, "Young Master Long, I am Qin Xiaotong from the Qin family. I've come to find you because I wish to cooperate with you."
Long Han Chen still showed no intention of lowering the window and waved his hand, signaling the driver to leave.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaotong became anxious and quickly said again, "Young Master Long, don't you want to know why Long Ying Lan is helping Chen Fan?!"
Finally, Long Han Chen opened the window a crack and uttered two words: "Get in."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaotong's face lit up with joy. She opened the door and sat beside Long Han Chen.
"Speak," Long Han Chen said, not even glancing at Qin Xiaotong.
Qin Xiaotong asked, "Young Master Long, if I tell you these things, can we discuss a condition?"
Long Han Chen glanced at Qin Xiaotong. "People from the Qin family, it seems, are unusually bold. Before we even begin, you want to negotiate terms with me."
"Young Master Long, we can join forces to deal with Chen Fan. This way, you get what you want, and you can also support us. Don't worry, our conditions are very simple and insignificant to you," Qin Xiaotong said, feeling a bit apprehensive.
"Let's hear it."
"I want to help my father gain control of the Qin family, so that we can better serve you in the future," Qin Xiaotong stated her condition.
Long Han Chen smiled playfully, not agreeing directly, but asking, "That depends on what you can bring me."
Qin Xiaotong spoke, "Young Master Long, you might not know this, but Chen Fan is actually related to you by blood."
Long Han Chen's expression instantly turned cold. "Hmph, what nonsense are you spouting? How could trash like Chen Fan be related to me by blood?"
"Young Master Long, don't you have more than one paternal aunt? He is the son of one of your paternal aunts!"
"A paternal aunt?" Long Han Chen pondered for a moment.
He had three paternal aunts. One currently controlled the Kyoto financial group, one had left home years ago and had been living in this remote southern province, and the other had been in a vegetative state for a long time, confined to her bed.
Could it be?
Suddenly, Long Han Chen seemed to guess something and grabbed Qin Xiaotong's arm, asking, "Is what you're saying true?!"
Qin Xiaotong was startled by Long Han Chen's action and quickly replied, "Young Master Long, we came to you for cooperation, how could we lie to you? Long Ying Lan herself said this."
"Hahaha!"
Hearing Qin Xiaotong's answer, Long Han Chen burst into laughter, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Young Master Long, please don't forget what you promised me," Qin Xiaotong said, leaning as close to Long Han Chen as possible, her tone laced with a hint of seductiveness.
Long Han Chen's laughter slowly subsided. He glanced at Qin Xiaotong. "I told you, I'm a germaphobe. I never touch what others have already played with, so stay away from me."
Qin Xiaotong blushed. "Young Master Long, I've saved my first time for you."
"Oh?" Long Han Chen seemed surprised. It was common for young ladies from wealthy and powerful families to have chaotic private lives. The fact that she hadn't slept with anyone yet did surprise Long Han Chen.
Qin Xiaotong lowered her head shyly and said in a very soft voice, "Young Master Long, if you don't believe me, why not try it and see?"
"Hahaha, good. I'm in a good mood today. Let's go to a hotel!" With that, Long Han Chen pulled Qin Xiaotong into his embrace.
"Oh, Young Master Long, you haven't agreed to my terms yet," Qin Xiaotong protested slightly.
"Isn't it just a small Qin family head? Don't worry, after we deal with Chen Fan, I'll have Qin Hong Guo personally step down!"
Qin Xiaotong kissed Long Han Chen on the cheek. "Young Master Long, you're so good."
"Young Master Long, we've hired an assassin. Shall I have them act today?"
Long Han Chen smiled playfully. "No need. As for Chen Fan, I'll handle him myself."
The banquet concluded, and the guests began to depart.
Qin Yu Yan had already been sent home by Liu Qian Ze's driver. As the groom, Liu Qian Ze was naturally required to see off the guests.
It was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but Liu Qian Ze could not bring himself to be happy.
Especially when almost every guest, upon leaving, would say to Liu Qian Ze, "May you have an early son."
These four words pierced Liu Qian Ze's heart like needles.
After all the guests had left, Liu Qian Ze finally returned home.
Qin Yu Yan sat on the sofa waiting for Liu Qian Ze, her eyes red, clearly having cried for a long time.
Seeing Liu Qian Ze, Qin Yu Yan said, "Since I am now your wife, I am yours from now on. However, I have two conditions."
Liu Qian Ze sat beside Qin Yu Yan and asked, "What conditions?"
"I want the Qin family to be destroyed, and I want Chen Fan dead!" Qin Yu Yan's eyes were icy, devoid of any warmth.
Liu Qian Ze looked at Qin Yu Yan with surprise.
Seeing that Liu Qian Ze did not respond, Qin Yu Yan asked, "What? Isn't this what you want too? Don't think I don't know about your Liu family's ambitions. Of course, the Qin family thinks the same way as you."
"You, you're willing to help us?" Liu Qian Ze still couldn't quite believe it.
Qin Yu Yan's face was filled with determination. "I am helping myself. If they are unjust, I shall be unrighteous, even if the price is the destruction of the Qin family."
"But that's your family."
Qin Yu Yan sneered. "My family? From the moment I put on this wedding dress, that place had nothing to do with me. I am now the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, your woman. As for the Qin family, they are merely my enemies, especially Chen Fan and Qin Shu Ran. I want them dead, I want them to kneel before me and repent, and then I will kill them with my own hands!"
Qin Yu Yan's emotions became somewhat agitated, her body trembling slightly.
Liu Qian Ze reached out and pulled Qin Yu Yan into his arms. "Yu Yan, don't worry, I will definitely help you."
Qin Yu Yan slowly closed her eyes. She had also decided to give herself to Liu Qian Ze.
However, Liu Qian Ze looked at the beautiful and captivating Qin Yu Yan before him, but never leaned in for a kiss.
Qin Yu Yan gave a self-deprecating smile and asked, "Are you still unable to forget Qin Shu Ran?"
Liu Qian Ze shook his head. "No, I."
At this point, Liu Qian Ze found it difficult to speak.
"I understand," Qin Yu Yan said with a cold expression, standing up and returning directly to the bedroom.
"Bang."
The door closed, leaving Liu Qian Ze alone in the living room.
Liu Qian Ze got up and went to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and washed his face frantically. Then, he looked at himself in the mirror with anger.
"Slap!"
Liu Qian Ze punched the mirror in front of him.
Instantly, the glass shattered, and a trace of blood appeared.
"Chen Fan, I will tear you into a thousand pieces!" Liu Qian Ze's eyes were filled with murderous intent, wishing he could rip Chen Fan apart right then and there.
