Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Courting Death_1
"Elder Ji, it wasn’t me who saved you, it was my master."
"Your master? Once I’ve recovered, I must personally thank him."
After speaking, Ji Wangshan fell asleep again.
...
Meanwhile, a red Ferrari parked in front of the building number 7 at Rose Manor, and Xue Yuhang swaggered through the door.
Seeing him, Xue Xiaochan’s pretty face instantly turned gloomy.
"What are you doing here?"
"I’m here to remind you not to be willful, and to stop opposing the family. Don’t think I don’t know you had Ran Jie, that secretary, lure away a lot of employees to resign, planning to start Shencao Ji anew. If I’m not mistaken, Shencao Ji was the first company you started in Zhonghai, right? Although the family didn’t support you at the time, they didn’t interfere. And what happened? In less than six months, Shencao Ji went bankrupt. Later, with the family’s support, you founded Haiyun Group. What does that tell you? It shows that without the family’s backing, you, Xue Xiaochan, cannot succeed in anything!"
"I will definitely make Shencao Ji successful! And I will use Shencao Ji to acquire Haiyun Group!"
"Use Shencao Ji to acquire Haiyun Group? Are you telling me a fairy tale? I’m not here to argue with you today, I just want to talk to you seriously. You must marry into the Jian Family in a month!
If you continue to be willful, I will kill off Shencao Ji within a month, to completely dishearten you! Then you will truly understand that without the Xue Family, you, Xue Xiaochan, are nothing!"
No sooner had Xue Yuhang finished speaking than Qin Feng and Song Sisi entered the door.
"Second Uncle, what a rare visitor!"
The greeting from Qin Feng completely baffled Xue Yuhang.
"What did you call me?"
"Second Uncle, of course!"
"Second Uncle? Who are you?"
"If I’m calling you Second Uncle, then I’m naturally Xiaochan’s husband!"
Xue Yuhang turned his head to look at Xue Xiaochan and asked, "What’s going on?"
Xue Xiaochan pulled out a marriage certificate from her LV bag, slammed it onto the table, and said flatly, "Qin Feng is my husband, and we’ve registered our marriage."
"He’s your husband? And you’ve already registered the marriage?"
Picking up the marriage certificate, Xue Yuhang flipped through it. After seeing the photos, names, and ID numbers inside, he was consumed with rage and shouted at Xue Xiaochan, pointing at her nose.
"Are you crazy? To avoid the arranged marriage with Jian Shichao, you actually staged a fake marriage? If this gets out, where will the Xue Family put their face?"
"This isn’t a fake marriage; I sincerely want to marry Qin Feng. I love him! In this lifetime, I will only love him!"
"Xue Xiaochan, I’m warning you, go and divorce this guy immediately! If after three days you haven’t divorced him, I’ll kill him."
"I won’t divorce!"
Seeing that threatening Xue Xiaochan was futile, Xue Yuhang’s fiercely pale face turned to Qin Feng, and he threatened coldly,
"I know you’re just a shield Xue Xiaochan found. She must have given you quite a sum of money. But remember, no matter how much money she has given you, if you lose your life, you can’t spend it. You have three days to decide – either divorce Xue Xiaochan or die!"
"If I die, won’t Xiaochan become a widow? That Jian Shichao is the eldest grandson of the Jian Family, the future Family Head of the Jian Family. The Jian Family is one of the Capital’s eight great noble families. Could their Family Head marry a widow?"
"Are you asking to be killed?"
"I’m not asking to be killed; I’m just reminding Second Uncle here. Even if Xiaochan and I have a sham marriage, we have registered our marriage. If I die, she will become a widow. So, if you want this matter settled perfectly, I cannot die!
As for the divorce, I agree to it, anytime. Therefore, your threats are useless to me. You sister dragged me to get married, so naturally, it’s only if she agrees that we can divorce."
If he killed Qin Feng, it would be a case of both sides losing. If Xue Xiaochan made a fuss, the Jian Family would find out she was a widow, and then she would never be able to marry into the Jian Family. The alliance through marriage between the Xue and Jian families would be finished. If that happened, the Xue Family would never have another chance to turn things around.
Xue Yuhang didn’t dare to kill Qin Feng, didn’t dare to provoke Xue Xiaochan to death, because she would be the future daughter-in-law of the Jian Family!
With his fury uncontainable, Xue Yuhang could only clench his fists tightly and shout hysterically.
"Xue Xiaochan, you’d better stop this nonsense! If you don’t divorce within three days, I will make sure you pay a dreadful price."
After delivering his ultimatum, Xue Yuhang turned to leave.
"Second Uncle, leaving so soon? Won’t you stay for a late-night snack or something?"
"Don’t think just because Xue Xiaochan is covering for you that you can act cheap with me! Once she marries into the Jian Family and is no longer looking out for you, I will make sure you’re dead!"
Xue Yuhang left.
Grinding his teeth, both nostrils flaring with fury, he cursed as he went.
Xue Xiaochan glared at Qin Feng with hate-filled eyes, as if she wished she could dismember him a thousand times.
Not a single word that guy had just said was sane—infuriating to the extreme!
Qin Feng knew Xue Xiaochan was angry. Looking at her, he deliberately irritates her, saying, "Although I’m very handsome, you don’t have to stare at me like that?"
"Handsome my foot! Cursing me to be a widow, are you even a man?"
"Whether I’m a man has nothing to do with you, since I’m a man you can’t have!"
"You... quit messing around with me!"
"Seriously, no kidding around, let’s talk business. I’ve negotiated with Blue Sky Pharmaceuticals already; they don’t want to be a contract manufacturer anymore and wish to be tied tightly to Shencao Ji. Hence, they’re interested in a 10% stake using their factory as capital."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Xiaochan’s face darkened, and she asked, "Did you agree?"
