Chapter 415: The Future Mistress of the Qin Family

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Old Madam Qin and Nan Yan were in the middle of their meal when Qin Sen and his wife, Song Wanrong, arrived.

As soon as they entered, Qin Sen couldn’t contain his excitement and said,

“Mom, have you finally come to your senses and agreed to our request?”

Qin Sen was in high spirits. His efforts had not been in vain, as he had finally persuaded Old Madam Qin to transfer her shares to him!

Although Old Madam Qin might have appeared rather ordinary and not particularly intelligent but after nearly ninety years of life, she had become a shrewd judge of character and knew how to manipulate human nature. As she grew older, her once fierce and domineering demeanor mellowed, and she now cherished a peaceful retirement.

If even her last son abandoned her, she would surely be devastated.

So, he used their mother-son relationship as leverage!

When Qin Sen heard his mother’s response, he was taken aback.

She angrily retorted, “Qin Sen, who told you that I agreed to your request?” Qin Sen and Song Wanrong’s excited expressions froze.

“Mom, what do you mean by this? Are you playing tricks on us?” Qin Sen was furious. “Didn’t you have Nanny Li inform us that you wanted to see us?”

He instinctively believed that Old Madam Qin had no other choice and couldn’t bear to let her only son leave the capital, so she had agreed.

However, upon his arrival, he heard his mother change her mind.

Old Madam Qin snorted, “When did I invite you? Did I invite you here just to cause trouble?”

Qin Sen:

He believed that Old Madam Qin wouldn’t stoop to lying.

Since she said she didn’t invite them, then it definitely wasn’t her.

“Nanny Li, you have quite the audacity, falsely conveying Old Madam Qin’s intentions and deceiving us into coming here. What’s your motive?” Qin Sen was losing his temper.

Nanny Li wasn’t intimidated by his anger and stood calmly behind Old Madam Qin, observing with a composed demeanor.

Old Madam Qin herself was a bit surprised. Was it Nanny Li who called them here?

Just as she was wondering, Nan Yan patted her hand on the back, raised her head, and met the girl’s bright eyes.

“Grandmother, I asked Nanny Li to call them.”

“Yanyan, why would you do this?”

Nan Yan gave her a reassuring look and then turned her gaze to Qin Sen. “Uncle Qin, I heard from Nanny Li that you’re tired of staying in the capital and want to go abroad, is that right?”

Qin Sen’s face darkened. “My affairs are none of your business, an outsider like you.”

Nan Yan raised an eyebrow and casually remarked, “Right now, I might be considered an outsider, but that won’t be the case in the future. So, I’m just preemptively assuming my role to assist Uncle Qin, which is only natural.”

Qin Sen couldn’t hide his disgust for Nan Yan, and he didn’t feel any less aversion towards her than he did towards his own nephew.

Dealing with Qin Lu was already a challenge, and now there was this woman who was equally difficult to deal with. If these two were to get married and become a couple in the future, where would that leave him in the Qin family?

He had even contemplated trying to break them up, but he had no idea where to start. Qin Lu was impervious to seduction or manipulation, and as for Nan Yan, he knew too little about her to drive a wedge between them.

Nan Yan propped her chin up lazily and said, “Grandmother, he’s scolding me.”

“Qin Sen, Nan Yan is the granddaughter-in-law I personally chose, the future mistress of the Qin family. Even though she hasn’t entered the Qin family officially yet, she’s already half a member of the Qin family. She has every right to be involved in Qin family matters.”

Old Madam Qin of the Qin family was a discerning person. She knew that Nan Yan had asked Nanny Li to call Qin Sen here, and she guessed that Nanny Li had said something to make Nan Yan want to stand up for her and resolve the issue.

But what delighted her the most was that Qin Lu had finally won Nan Yan’s heart!

A reason to celebrate indeed!

She couldn’t wait for Nan Yan to graduate from university so that she could immediately arrange their wedding.

“Mom!”

Both Qin Sen and Song Wanrong’s faces darkened.

“Do you really want to let a young girl who hasn’t even entered the family yet dictate terms to us?” Qin Sen was seething with anger, his face contorted in frustration.

Song Wanrong, feeling aggrieved, added, “Mom, I’ve been married into the Qin family for over twenty years, always respecting and serving you. I’ve been cautious and careful in everything I do. I haven’t complained even when you didn’t entrust me with the affairs of the Qin family’s inner household. But now, you’re willing to give that responsibility to a young girl who hasn’t married into the family yet. How will people in our social circle perceive me?”

Song Wanrong had been patiently waiting for the moment when the role of the Qin family’s mistress would fall into her hands, especially when she believed that her sister-in-law and younger siblings had no intention of returning to the capital. The sudden decision to hand over the management of the inner household to Nan Yan was something she couldn’t accept.

Old Madam Qin of the Qin family retorted, “Ah Lu is currently the head of the

Qin family, and naturally, his wife will be the mistress of this household.”

Song Wanrong was so infuriated that she almost crushed the handbag she held in her hands, her body trembling with anger.

Qin Sen grabbed her hand and sternly said, “If that’s the case, then Wanrong and I will leave. We’ll go abroad, and you can stay here with your grandson and granddaughter-in-law!”

He thought that by saying this, Old Madam Qin would surely try to stop them from leaving.

However, to his surprise, he heard Nan Yan calmly remark, “Uncle Qin, you can leave if you want, but before you go, there’s something I’d like to tell you.”

“As for Old Madam Qin’s shares, you better give up any ideas of trying to manipulate or coerce her into giving them to you. What she owns, she’ll give to whomever she pleases. Threats and temptations won’t work.”

“Grandmother has already shown great leniency towards both of you. The last time, Old Madam Qin intervened on your behalf, and my brother spared you any consequences. If you persist in showing disrespect to Old Madam Qin, my brother will abide by grandmother’s wishes and won’t be able to take any action. However, I’m more than willing to step in personally.”

Qin Sen was about to unleash an angry tirade. but when he felt Nan Yan’s cold and sinister gaze, a shiver ran down his spine, and the words he was about to speak retreated.

He clenched his fists tightly and glared ominously at Old Madam Qin. “Mom, is this also your decision?”

Old Madam Qin remained silent for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”

“Qin Sen, I’ve given you chances before. Your abilities are mediocre, you lack business acumen, and you rely on dubious methods. The shares you hold are enough to ensure a comfortable life for you and your wife. It’s better not to be too greedy in life.”

She had wanted to say these words to Qin Sen for a long time.

She had been lenient with him, always keeping him close to her instead of letting him settle abroad like her other children. She had been more caring and forgiving. However, he was like a hopeless case, not only lacking in success but also having a soft spot, prone to making foolish decisions when provoked.

She could indulge him for a while, but she couldn’t do it indefinitely.

Qin Sen’s eyes betrayed his resentment as he glared fiercely at Old Madam Qin.

He pulled Song Wanrong along and angrily declared, “We’re leaving.”

Just before leaving, he added a menacing remark, “I hope you won’t regret this in the future..
