"No!" As soon as Qin Xiaodong's voice fell, Qin Shuran directly stood up in opposition.
Seeing this, a playful sneer appeared on Qin Xiaotong's lips: "Heh, Qin Shuran, this is not something you can decide. In the face of the Qin family's interests, your personal feelings are simply not worth mentioning." Da Feng Novel Network
Qin Shuran's face turned cold, and she looked at her father: "Father, you can't do this. If you do, how will others view our Qin family?"
"Hmph, only when you have strength yourself do you have the right to change others' opinions. Shuran, don't be difficult. This kind of matter is not for you to decide." Qin Xiaodong snorted in response.
"Father!" Qin Shuran called out to Qin Hongguo again, looking at him with pleading eyes.
However, as Qin Xiaotong had just said, in the eyes of the Qin family, interests always came first.
Qin Hongguo sighed and said, "What Xiaotong said just now is correct. In the face of the Qin family's overall interests, one person's feelings are not worth mentioning."
Tears instantly streamed down Qin Shuran's face: "Father, are you really going to be so heartless? No matter what, I will not leave Chen Fan."
As her voice fell, Qin Shuran tightly hugged Chen Fan's arm.
Seeing Qin Shuran's tears, Chen Fan reached out and gently wiped them away, comforting her, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Qin Xiaodong reprimanded coldly, "Shuran, this is not something you can decide. Now he has implicated the entire Qin family, do you understand?"
"Implicated? Just a shipping matter, and you're all in such a panic. I really don't know if your Qin family has such little ability?" Suddenly, Chen Fan, who had been silent, spoke.
His words instantly stunned everyone present.
A shipping matter? Such little ability? They didn't know what courage Chen Fan had to say such a thing!
Qin Xiaotong sneered, "Chen Fan, who do you think you are? Don't think I don't know, you're just an illegitimate son! What right do you have to say such things!"
Illegitimate son?
Immediately, many people turned their gaze to Qin Xiaotong.
They all knew that Chen Fan was the nephew of Long Yinglan and had an unusual relationship with the Long family.
But they had no idea that Chen Fan was an illegitimate son of the Long family.
If he were truly an illegitimate son, such a hidden relationship would mean none of them would agree to Chen Fan marrying Qin Shuran!
"Qin Xiaotong, what nonsense are you talking about!" Qin Shuran glared at Qin Xiaotong angrily.
Qin Xiaotong smiled playfully, "Nonsense? If you don't believe me, you can ask Chen Fan. He's just the bastard born from an affair of a useless woman from the Long family!"
Boom!
The scene exploded again, and everyone was filled with shock.
Chen Fan's expression also gradually turned grim at this moment.
Seeing Chen Fan's expression, Qin Xiaotong couldn't be more smug. She walked slowly in front of Chen Fan and pointed at his nose, asking, "Chen Fan, what? Don't dare to admit it? Don't think I don't know about your and your mother's unspeakable affairs."
"You still want to use this connection with the Long family to marry someone from our Qin family and then try to soar to the heavens? Chen Fan, your little schemes will no longer be possible starting today."
Slap!
Suddenly, Qin Shuran, standing beside Chen Fan, raised her hand and slapped Qin Xiaotong directly across the face!
"Qin Shuran, you, you dare to hit me!" Qin Xiaotong pointed at Qin Shuran and shouted angrily.
"If you dare to spout more nonsense, I'll smash your mouth!" Qin Shuran would not allow anyone to slander Chen Fan.
"Nonsense? Uncle, I'm telling the truth. Chen Fan is an illegitimate son, and Long Hanchen told me all this himself!" Qin Xiaotong, covering her face, said to Qin Hongguo.
"You're lying! Father, don't believe her." Qin Shuran retorted.
However, at this moment, Chen Fan spoke again, "That's right, I am indeed an illegitimate son."
His words silenced the entire hall. Even Qin Shuran looked at Chen Fan with shock.
She only knew that Chen Fan was going to Kyoto to see her mother, but she didn't know Chen Fan's true background.
"You hear that? He admits it himself!"
Qin Xiaotong finally smiled, incredibly excited. She knew Chen Fan had no chance of turning things around!
Qin Xiaodong and Qin Hongwei also looked at Chen Fan with smugness. Especially Zeng Wanrou, Qin Yuyan's mother, pointed at Chen Fan and angrily shouted, "Chen Fan, you have such deep cunning! Fortunately, Xiaotong found out your identity, otherwise, our Qin family would have been ruined by you!"
Then she turned to Qin Hongguo and said, "Hongguo, you must handle this matter seriously. Hurry up and make them separate. Otherwise, we will not only offend the Huangfu family, but we will also offend terrifying existences like the Long family. By then, our Qin family will be truly finished!"
For a moment, everyone present felt a lingering fear.
They were fortunate to have learned Chen Fan's true identity at this moment.
"Chen Fan, do you have anything else to say?" Qin Hongguo asked Chen Fan with a grim expression after a long silence.
"I've said what I needed to say. The Qin family is nothing more than this," Chen Fan said calmly.
"Arrogant! Do you have a way to get the Qin family off the blacklist?" Qin Hongwei questioned disdainfully.
However, Chen Fan nodded, "Yes, I have a way."
"What? Relying on you?!" Qin Xiaodong let out a cold laugh.
No one believed that Chen Fan, who had offended the shipping giant Huangfu family and was an illegitimate son of the Long family, would have such ability.
Chen Fan looked at Qin Xiaodong, "What if I really do?"
"If you can make the Qin family's foreign trade successfully depart, then you can say whatever you want. As for your illegitimate son status, our Qin family can also choose not to pursue it," Qin Xiaodong declared directly.
"My request is very simple," Chen Fan said, looking at Qin Xiaotong, "Expel her from the Qin family."
"Heh heh, Chen Fan, expel me from the Qin family? Hahaha, Chen Fan, are you trying to make me die of laughter?!" Qin Xiaotong couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"What, don't dare to bet?" Chen Fan asked.
"I dare! Brother Xiaodong, make a bet with him. If you can't restore the Qin family's shipping, then you can never see Qin Shuran again!"
"Alright." Chen Fan nodded and agreed directly.
Qin Shuran, standing beside him, grabbed Chen Fan's hand with a worried expression.
Chen Fan, however, gave her a reassuring look.
"Master." Just then, an old man, the Qin family's butler, suddenly entered from outside.
This sudden turn of events drew everyone's attention to the butler.
"What is it?" Qin Hongguo asked.
"Master, the leader of the underground forces in South China has sent a calling card!" The butler hurriedly presented a calling card to Qin Hongguo.
"Underground leader? What does he want at our Qin family?" Qin Hongguo frowned slightly but still reached out and took the calling card.
