Chapter 224 Qi Yihan Letting Go Of His Power
After the group of elders left, the old man looked at the two of them and said, “Although what your Sixth Uncle said just now was a little harsh, it’s time for you to consider the child. As the head of the Qi family, Yihan has a high social status. There will definitely be many women who want to replace Li. If Li doesn’t have a child, what if some stupid woman takes advantage of the situation?”
Tang Li knew that he meant well and was about to say that she would consider it.
Unexpectedly, Qi Yihan said first, “If Li is pregnant, then so be it. If she isn’t, then I won’t force her. As for what Father said, it won’t happen to me. Other than Li, I won’t give any other woman a chance in this life.”
When the old man heard this, he frowned.
The father and son stared at each other for a few seconds. In the end, the old man looked away and said, “Even if that’s the case, you have to use the child to shut everyone up. I don’t want to live to see the day when your position as the head of the family is taken by your brother’s children.”
In the future, if there were no capable successors in the Qi family to take over Qi Yihan’s position, the branch families would choose a capable child and make him the head of the Qi family.
The old man definitely didn’t want to see that happen.
Qi Yihan seemed to be persuaded by that. He pondered for a few seconds and said, “Since Father has always wanted me and Li to have a child as soon as possible, it just so happens that Li is going on a long trip. I plan to go with her.”
The old man frowned even more tightly. “Why is Li going on a long trip? What are you gonna do with the Qi Corp if you go with her?”
“Father, Li promised Mr. Guo and his wife to treat their daughter. Miss Guo’s illness is very special. We have to go to the southern border to find something.”
When the old man heard this, he was a little surprised, but he did not say anything else about Tang Li. He just looked at Qi Yihan and did not approve of him going along with her.
Qi Yihan added, “Brothers have always been complaining about me keeping all the power to myself and not giving my nephews a chance. Let’s take this opportunity to see who is more capable.”
The old man was still silent, as if he was thinking
Tang Li tilted her head to look at Qi Yihan. Seeing that his expression was still cold, she did not say anything.
The old man thought for nearly a minute before saying, “Then let them try.”
After saying that, he added, “Last night, I heard from a few old friends that a sanatorium was built in Nan Mount, and there are a lot of people from my generation. I want to recuperate there.”
The old man knew very well that none of his other three sons were going to give him a good time at home. If he stayed at home and listened to their nonsense every day, perhaps his health would deteriorate. So he thought he might as well go to the sanatorium and put himself in a better mood.
Unexpectedly, Qi Yihan agreed. “Sure. The environment and safety facilities there are very good. When the time comes, I’ll send some bodyguards to protect Father. The medical team will also go with them.”
“That’ll work.”
The father and son agreed.
During lunch, Qi Yihan announced these two things to everyone.
He said, “Father needs to maintain a good mood while recuperating. It just so happens that there are a lot of people he knows in the sanatorium at Nan Mount. He can drink tea and play chess together with his fellows over there.”
“We don’t object to the old man going there, but Yihan, you’re the CEO of the Qi Corp. How can you leave at will?”
The three brothers would definitely want Qi Yihan to take a break so that they and their children could show their abilities.
However, no one in the branch families agreed.
Qi Yihan had created too much wealth, and the people in the family could also benefit from it. They believed that Qi Yihan was the one who knew how to make the most money and definitely did not want anyone else to take over.
“I’m just taking a one month break.”
After Qi Yihan finished speaking, he looked at his three brothers, who were sitting there without saying anything, and said, “For the next month, the Qi Corporation will be left in your charge.”
First Master tried his best to keep a solemn face so that his happiness wouldn’t be too obvious. “Fourth Brother, don’t worry. You’re just taking a month off. It’s not like you’re not quitting for good. I think we can keep the Qi Corp functioning just fine.”
Second Master immediately added, “That’s right. Maybe while you are away , we can double the revenue.”
Third Master thought for a moment before saying, “The young people are all in the company now. Let’s see who is more capable.”
These words made the three masters start scheming. They planned to let their sons handle all the good projects.
Qi Yihan did not seem to notice their thoughts. He nodded and sat down with Tang Li to eat.
Since Qi Yihan planned to rest for a month, he definitely had to hand over many things.
For the next few days, Qi Yihan left early and returned late, busy with making sure things would be in order while he was away.
At that moment, Tang Li went to tell Mrs. Guo that she would be going to the southern border in a few days.
Mrs. Guo also moved out when the old man was discharged from the hospital and lived in her mansion.
When Tang Li went over, Mrs. Guo came out to greet her.
When Tang Li walked into the living room, she saw Yuan Yuan nestled on the swing chair by the window, looking out of the window with a blank expression.
Mrs. Guo was a little excited. “Miss Tang, what else do we need to prepare before setting out? When are we leaving?”
“There’s no need to prepare anything. When the time comes, we’ll set out immediately.”
After saying that, she thought for a moment and added, “I think that area on the map you drew is considered an uninhabited area. We won’t be able to get there by driving. It’s best that you get Mr. Guo to prepare a few horses.”
“Alright, I’ll get him to do it immediately.”
“There’s no hurry. Yihan still needs to be busy for a few more days. You guys can take your time,” Tang Li said. “We still don’t know what Yuan Yuan’s soul is attached to. We might have to widen the search area. I think there are a few villages over there.”
“Yes.” Mrs. Guo suddenly frowned and said, “The people in those villages are quite xenophobic. If Yuan Yuan’s soul really entered one of the villages, we have to figure out how to enter.”
She suddenly became worried and prayed that Yuan Yuan’s soul would not enter the village.
Tang Li was not worried. She said, “Don’t worry. I said I’ll help you find Yuan Yuan’s soul.”
Mrs. Guo looked at Tang Li, who had a confident expression on her face, and nodded.
However, she still said, “The priority is your safety. Yuan Yuan’s soul is secondary.”
She didn’t want to trade someone else’s life for her daughter’s soul.
Tang Li smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
The two of them talked for a while longer before Tang Li stood up to leave.
Mrs. Guo sent her out again.
As two of them walked, they saw a familiar figure approaching them.
When the man saw Tang Li, his eyes lit up.
He immediately walked towards them quickly.
