Gu Qiqi said lightly, “Gu Yuanyuan and the rest are just doing it for money and fame. Then, let them have nothing! As for that Yang Xiaoqing… That kind of heartless and shameless person, of course, I have to teach him a lesson that he won’t forget for the rest of his life!”
Iron Fist Yang had adopted him and turned him from a beggar to a man with a family.
Then, she would let him… become worse than a beggar this time.
Xiao Ning nodded fiercely. “That’s right, that’s right. Why don’t… we go and smash the shop! We’ll smash his things that he plagiarized and those counterfeit items into pieces. It’ll definitely be very satisfying to let them have nothing!”
Iron Fist Yang was speechless.
Yang Xiaolan was speechless.
Gu Qiqi’s lips twitched. “It’s not accurate to say that it’s smashing a shop. It should be smashing his business! Why don’t we pick up Uncle Yang’s skills again and snatch back the market that belongs to us? The market for high-end handmade jade jewelry is limited. If we snatch back the market, they naturally won’t have a place to stand.”
Upon hearing Gu Qiqi’s detailed analysis, Yang Iron Fist’s eyes lit up.
He was the one who founded Qing Yuxuan’s brand. Now that it had fallen into the hands of evil people, he could only come up with a better brand with a better reputation and force the other party into a corner. Only by them suffering a crushing defeat would he be able to vent his anger!
Young Lady Qiqi was too good! Every word pierced his heart!
Unfortunately…
“Young Lady Qiqi, I’m already old and weak. Xiaolan isn’t interested in jade carvings and wants to study medicine… It’s easier said than done to rebuild a brand. Sigh…” Iron Fist Yang sighed heavily. His heart ached.
If Yang Xiaolan was interested in jade sculptures, he wouldn’t have given his apprentice Yang Xiaoqing an opportunity to gradually steal the Yang family’s craftsmanship and jade stones.
“Dad, I… At most, I won’t go to school anymore. I… I won’t study medicine either. I’ll come back and be your apprentice. I’ll study jade carving and help you!” Yang Xiaolan’s eyes reddened.
Iron Fist Yang’s face sank and his originally kind tone became sharper. “No! A person’s hobby gives her the ability to establish herself in this life. Since you like medicine, you have to study it to the end. How can you give up halfway? Even if our Yang family can’t recover from this setback and is completely crippled, we won’t let our daughter drop out of school!”
After speaking, he turned to Gu Qiqi. “Young Lady Qiqi, we appreciate your good intentions and kind advice. But I still decided to forget it and let Yang Xiaoqing be smug. He came to this day from nothing. He’s vicious and isn’t afraid of anything, but I can’t lose my daughter and fight with him… As long as Xiaolan can enter the profession that she likes in the future and find the person she likes, I’ll be satisfied for life…”
It wasn’t that he didn’t hate him in his heart, but as a father, he had to tolerate this hatred and not implicate his daughter.
Xiao Ning fell silent.
Iron Fist Yang’s words reminded her of her mother in Qing Cheng.
Although her mother had a weak character, she protected her no matter what and didn’t let herself be hurt at all.
Father Yang really had the same character as his mother.
Gu Qiqi fell silent as well.
She had seen too many people who weren’t fit to be parents. For example, Gu Qiushan and Yun Qiao’s parents treated their children as goods. They would beat and scold them as they pleased, or abandon and sell them at will.
But there were still parents in this world who didn’t hold back and loved their child.
Iron Fist Yang would rather go bankrupt and be chased by loan sharks than secretly save Yang Xiaolan’s university money. He would rather endure the anger of being betrayed by Yang Xiaoqing than let Yang Xiaolan suffer and change her ideals and give up on studying medicine.
Such fatherly love moved her.
This hit her harder when she thought about how Gu Qiushan and Gu Meifeng spent so much effort to change her college application form and how they wanted her to drop out of school and be unable to study medicine…
She increasingly felt that Iron Fist Yang was a man worthy of respect.
Just as Iron Fist Yang thought that she was going to give up on the idea of revenge…
Gu Qiqi suddenly spoke.
Her voice was faint, but it carried a trace of determination and confidence. “Who said that she has to give up studying medicine to open a new jade carving brand?”
