Chi Mingwei didn’t even look at Chi Mingyao as he continued to speak to Quan Jingzhou, “As for Chi Jiao and Quan Jue’s relationship, this is a matter between the two of them. As their elders, I think it’s better for us not to interfere, lest they get annoyed with us. What do you think, Mr. Quan?”
His firm attitude made Quan Jingzhou sit up straight and look at him.
This person was rather interesting.
“You’re rejecting my proposal?” Quan Jingzhou asked slowly.
“The Chi family can’t afford what Mr. Quan is offering us. Mr. Quan, you don’t have to worry about this anymore in the future. Quan Jue didn’t have an easy time in our family all those years. He was able to reach where he is now because of his own abilities. Our Chi family doesn’t deserve any credit. Mr. Quan doesn’t owe us any favors.” Chi Mingwei spoke calmly and clearly.
“Mr. Chi, you need to think carefully before you speak.” Quan Liu could clearly feel that Quan Jingzhou’s aura had turned cold. He said to Chi Mingwei, “Mr. Quan has already offered you very generous terms. If you reject him, you should know very well what your Chi family will face in the future.”
Chi Mingyao nodded vigorously after hearing that. He lowered his voice and said, “Mingwei, you have to think about the Chi family. You can’t just think about Chi Jiao.”
Chi Mingwei pretended that he didn’t hear what he said. He looked straight at Quan Jingzhou and said, “Mr. Quan, I’ve said what I needed to say. You can go back and discuss it with Quan Jue first. If Quan Jue is willing to cut off all contact with our Jiaojiao, I will manage my own daughter.”
Quan Jingzhou immediately understood what Chi Mingwei meant.
This person was advising him to take care of his son first.
There was no need to continue the conversation.
Quan Jingzhou stood up without hesitation and shot Chi Mingwei a meaningful look. “I won’t disturb you further, then.”
With that, he walked towards the door.
Quan Liu looked at Chi Mingwei as if he was looking at a fool and quickly followed Quan Jingzhou.
After they left, Chi Mingwei collapsed on the sofa as if all his energy had been sucked out.
His back was already drenched in a cold sweat.
He had never come into contact with someone like Quan Jingzhou. He was famous for being ruthless. How could Chi Mingwei not be nervous?
He was just pretending to be calm in order to maintain control over the situation.
“Are you alright?” Old Master Chi asked him with concern.
Chi Mingwei shook his head.
“Chi Mingwei, are you trying to consign the Chi family to eternal damnation?” Chi Mingyao couldn’t hold it in anymore. He suddenly stood up from the sofa and looked at him in exasperation.
He felt that Chi Mingwei’s actions just now were simply too crazy.
That was Quan Jingzhou!
He could crush the Chi family with a finger!
In the end, not only did Chi Mingwei not curry favor with that person, he even went against him?!
If this wasn’t madness, then what was?
“Dad, what do you think of what I did just now?” Chi Mingwei ignored him and looked at Old Master Chi instead.
“It’s true that we can’t afford the offer made by the Quan Family,” Elder Chi said lightly. “You’ve done well.”
The opportunity just now was indeed very good.
But if they accepted it, the Chi family would have to rely solely on the Quan family in the future.
They would have to suck up to the Quan Family all the time.
He didn’t want the Chi family to become reliant on another family and end up just a tool for them.
