After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Qin Ce talked to Grandpa Qin for a long time, but in the end Grandpa Qin still couldn't persuade Qin Ce.

Grandpa Qin knew that he had already made up his mind and no one else could change his mind.

Anyway, he has said what he should say and done what he should do. Let them deal with the next development on their own.

Grandpa Qin sighed and said, "Forget it. You never listen to me anyway. Do whatever you want. I don't want to think about anything now. I just want to finish my medical treatment and go back to Yucheng. This place has a bad relationship with me. The longer I stay here, the more uncomfortable I will feel."

Qin Ce said, "It will be soon. In a month at most, I will definitely be back before Qiao Xingsheng is born."

Grandpa Qin was very happy when he heard this. "It's just right. The Chinese New Year is only two months away. By then, Xingxing will give birth to the baby safely, and our family will celebrate the Chinese New Year happily."

Qin Ce's two words made Grandpa Qin happy, and he no longer bothered about what he had just said to Qin Ce.

"Okay, you guys don't have to stay here with me anymore, go see your dad."

Qin Ce and Qiao Xing stood up at the same time, and Qiao Xing said, "Then Grandpa, we'll go over first."

Grandpa Qin nodded, then he thought of something and reminded Qin Ce, "Don't force anything. If he doesn't appreciate your kindness, just treat those words as if they were played to a cow. Let him bear the consequences of good or bad things in the future. You must remember that no matter what he says, don't be impulsive. Always think about Xingxing and the baby in her belly."

Qin Ce said, "I understand."

Coming out of Grandpa Qin's ward and on the way to Qin Liang's ward, Qin Ce suddenly received a call from Yang Han.

"Lao Qin, you left in a hurry today. There's something I almost forgot to tell you!"

"You said."

"The prescription you asked me to look up last time has yielded results. My grandfather said that the medicines in the prescription are all good for conditioning the body when taken individually, but if used together, it will be counterproductive. It's like giving a healthy person a chronic poison. On the surface, it looks normal and there's nothing wrong with it, but over time, it will cause internal consumption and slowly drain your body's vitality."

Qin Ce seemed to have thought of this result a long time ago, and he was not surprised.

"I know, thank you for your hard work."

"Why are you being so polite to me? I'm done. My wife is here. I'm hanging up now!"

Qin Ce hung up the phone and came to the door of Qin Liang's ward.

Qin Liang had woken up, and Wang Yu was guarding his bedside. The two were talking about something, but it couldn't be heard through the door.

Qin Ce turned to Qiao Xing and said, "Don't go in."

Qiao Xing was suspicious, "What's wrong? Now that I'm here, it would be bad if I don't go in and take a look."

"It's okay. If you're bored, just go and keep Grandpa company. I'll go in by myself."

Qiao Xing thought of the conversation he had just had with Grandpa Qin, and did not insist, "Okay, then I'll wait for you to come out."

Qiao Xing actually didn't want to go, mainly because her interactions with the Qin family always gave her a strange feeling.

But sometimes you have to do some superficial work.

Since Qin Ce said she didn't have to go, Qiao Xing couldn't ask for more.

After Qin Ce went in, Qiao Xing was waiting for him at the door.

She knew from Qin Ce's expression that what he said to Qin Liang would definitely not be good.

If the two of them started arguing, she could go in and try to mediate.

As soon as Qin Ce entered, Wang Yu stood up and said, "Xiao Ce is here, come and sit down."

Although Qin Liang woke up, his complexion was not good, especially when he looked at Qin Ce, his complexion became even worse.

The atmosphere in the ward was inexplicably frozen.

Wang Yu smiled and eased the atmosphere. "Xiao Ce, since you are here to see your father, you two can have a good chat. I will leave first."

After Wang Yu finished speaking, he left the ward.

Qin Liang exhaled silently, and finally spoke to Qin Ce, "Sit down."

Qin Ce didn't hesitate and pulled a chair over and sat down beside the bed.

Just as Qin Liang was about to speak, he coughed several times.

Qin Ce didn't know what specific disease Qin Liang had, but he could guarantee that what the doctor told Qin Liang was not his true condition.

"We haven't had a good conversation since you came to the capital. Now we have the chance, let's talk."

Qin Ce's expression was cold, "What do you want to hear me say?"

"Say what you want to say."

Qin Ce sneered, "Are you sure that you can accept what I say given your current physical condition?"

Qin Liang couldn't help but cough twice again, "It's nothing that you can't accept. I know you don't care about the Qin family or anything in the Qin family. You just hate me as your father."

Qin Ce sneered in his heart.

It seems that he is quite self-aware and is not hopeless.

This was the first time in all these years that the father and son sat face to face so calmly.

But they also knew what each other was thinking at this moment.

Qin Liang said slowly, "You are the largest shareholder of Qin Corporation. You should know better than anyone what kind of situation Qin Corporation is facing now."

Qin Ce nodded and said, "I know."

"I won't ask you to hand over your shares anymore. I only want to do one thing now, and that is to keep Qin's company."

Qin Liang's breathing was a little unstable, but he still tried to hold himself together.

"If you have to ask me to promise you something before you give in, then just name your conditions. I'll agree to whatever I can do."

From what Qin Liang said, it is clear that the Qin family’s crisis has reached an uncontrollable point.

If it is not resolved in time, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire group may collapse completely.

Those senior members of the shareholders' meeting were also afraid that they would flee if disaster struck, so they had already thought of a way out early on and would never allow themselves to do business at a loss.

Qin Liang has already made the biggest concession. Given his temper, it is already very rare for him to say these words to Qin Ce.

But Qin Ce was dismissive of his so-called conditions, "You also know that I have the most shares now. Do you think you can offer any conditions that will be enough for me to agree to you?"

If it were the head of a small company, or someone who wanted to cooperate with Qin's, Qin Liang's words would indeed impress them.

But for Qin Ce, he was not interested at all in the huge capital that Qin Liang thought he had.

Qin Ce's two sentences made Qin Liang feel very embarrassed.

His expression turned from white to black in an instant, "Are you showing off to me how great you are?"

Qin Ce was not surprised at all that Qin Liang would be angry.

Qin Liang was a father after all. When he was sick and unable to do things, it was only natural for him as a son to follow in his footsteps.
