Chapter 834: Seek Help from the Maternal Family

Chapter 834 Seek Help from the Maternal Family

Qi Minlan was thinking that if she were to put all the blame on the Qiu family, Shi Peng would be more willing to quickly agree to her request when she told him that she was going to divorce Qiu Qin.

“Fine. How can I not know what kind of person you are? Since you were a child, you have never allowed yourself to be shortchanged. Speak if you have any matter. I still have a lot of work to do. If you can’t finish what you want to say before I finish my meal, you will have to go back and talk to me again when I have time. It’s not possible for me to put aside the citizens’ issues and bother about a lousy matter of that small family of yours.” Her husband had a mistress but she turned and gave her brother a scolding. He could not afford to have either such a sister or father.

“Brother, I’ll be getting a divorce with Qiu Qin. Help me settle this as soon as possible.” She did not need so much time. Before lunchtime was up, Qi Minlan finished what she wanted to say within the time taken for taking a few breaths.

At this moment, Shi Peng had already finished half the contents in the lunch box. “This place is not the court. We don’t intervene in such matters. If you want to get a divorce, you should hire a lawyer directly and file a divorce lawsuit. That will do. Since you have such an intention, you should have a lot of evidence in your hands. Why are you in such a hurry?”

“I’m in a hurry. Of course I am in a hurry!” If she did not divorce with Qiu Qin soon, the money in her hands that she had painstakingly gotten from the Qiu family over the years would all be gone.

If that truly happened, she would lose her youth, feelings, and man. If she could not even hold on to her money, what else would be left of her?

All of a sudden, Qi Minlan pounded on Shi Peng’s office table. “Don’t tell me that you don’t know about the illegal things that Qiu Qin had done recently? He’s going to be in trouble. I’ve been married into the Qiu family for so many years and I have given birth to a child for them. They never understand the hardships that I’ve gone through. Qiu Qin even found a mistress outside. Brother, are you willing to help me only after you watch me, who is already in my middle age, lose everything such that I will even have difficulty in having a full meal? I’m your biological sister!”

“When I was about to die, I did not see you remember that I’m your biological brother.” The last sentence of Qi Minlan’s speech was what Shi Peng hated to hear most. “Doesn’t the old master dote on you very much? Why don’t you look for the old master instead of me regarding this matter? He still has some connections. I’m not familiar with anyone from the court but he is. When I am able to spare the time to help you say something, it will definitely not be the ‘as soon as possible’ that you wish for. The old master has a lot of time. With one phone call, and as long as the evidence that you provide is sufficient, the court case and trial will be over very soon. He is certainly going to be more effective than me.”

It was not that Shi Peng was not willing to help. He was telling the truth.

Shi Peng had relied on himself all this while. He took one step at a time to gradually achieve everything that he had today.

Those few contacts that old Master Shi had, Shi Peng had never utilized or enquired about them before. Old Master Shi was free to give them to whoever he wished to. That was up to the old master and he could not be bothered with it.

“Really? You’re not purposely brushing me off, are you?” Qi Minlan was a little doubtful. “Why didn’t I know that Dad has such connections?”

“If you don’t know, you shouldn’t ask me. You should ask the old master. Doesn’t he dote on you the most?” Shi Peng said without any reservation.

Old Master Shi was very scheming but he was not that capable. The valuable resources that he had on hand were limited.

As he only had so little resources, Old Master Shi treated these like treasures and clutched them in his hands. He was unwilling to give them to his son or daughter. It was not sure what he had been waiting for all this while.

Shi Peng did not care for these little things that the old master had. It was the same and even more so for Shi Qing. She would rather be like her father and create everything through her own effort and hard work.

Qi Minlan would definitely be interested in the things that Shi Peng and his daughter did not care about.

Today, Shi Peng ‘sold’ this news to Qi Minlan as he hoped that Qi Minlan would ‘pester’ the old master more instead of pointlessly targeting him, her brother, after she was divorced with Qiu Qin.

It would depend on Qi Minlan’s capability on whether she would eventually be able to ‘get hold of’ those little things in the old master’s hands.

“Alright, I know now!” Shi Peng was not willing to bother about her and Qi Minlan had found a new way. She was also decisive and did not continue to pester Shi Peng. Instead, she left without further ado and returned to the hotel.

“Mom, you came back so soon? Did uncle agree?” It was just one morning and Qi Minlan was back. Qiu Chenxi was quite surprised. “It seems that uncle is quite good to you.” It was unlike what her mother told her previously, that her maternal grandfather’s family did not treat her that well or amicably. They shunned her mother for being a lady and not a son.

Qi Minlan took a deep breath. “Chenxi, we will depend on it this time and see whether you can become a politician!” It was fine that she did not have a son. As long as she could raise and support her daughter, that would be stronger than anything else.

This matter made Qi Minlan understand why she was always the one pleading with others instead of the other way round whenever she encountered any problems. Wasn’t it because she had never personally assumed that role?

She did not have any more hopes to do so in this lifetime. Nevertheless, her daughter was still young and intelligent. Thus, she completely had the chance to take another path in her life.

Qi Minlan was full of fighting spirit as she gave a call to her maternal family in Mo Du. Coincidentally, Old Master Shi was the one who picked up the call. “Dad, I would like to seek your help in something. You have to help me. You’re the only one who can help me now.”

Qi Minlan knew that Old Master Shi was different from Shi Peng. He loved to listen to good words and he was very pleased when someone curried favor with him.

Shi Peng did not have the habit but Qi Minlan did. Hence, she put her words in such a way as if Old Master Shi was the only one in the whole world who could help her.

“What’s the matter? Tell me directly.” Although Old Master Shi loved words that were pleasing to his ears, he would not be cajoled so easily. If he was willing to help every time after just listening to some good words, there would have been chaos in the Shi family since long ago.

“Dad, I will be getting a divorce with Qiu Qin. If I don’t divorce him soon, our whole Shi family is going to be implicated by the Qiu family soon.” Qi Minlan did not keep the matter from Old Master Shi. She spilled out all the ‘good things’ that Qiu Qin had done to Old Master Shi.

After Old Master Shi heard that, he fell silent for a long time. “That lad in the Zhai family is willing to tell Chenxi about this news. This means that he still has some feelings toward Chenxi. After so many years of ‘torture’, Chenxi is not young anymore. That lad in the Zhai family is also of the age such that he can let the Zhai family carry grandsons. The matter between the two of them has not been finalized?”

Old Master Qiu had not brought up the matter between Qiu Chenxi and Zhai Sheng in front of Qi Minlan for a very long time. After all, this matter turned very ugly previously.

Qiu Qin sacrificed his own daughter’s happiness in exchange for a good role for himself. Old Master Qiu was aware of this matter.

He did not wish to bother about Qiu Qin, this son-in-law, because the latter had ‘spoiled the ship for a halfpennyworth of tar’ and he had a very ‘short-term thinking’.

When Qiu Chenxi married into the Zhai family, they could gain whatever benefit that they wished for. Qiu Qin had to give up so many things for the sake of one role. He had forsaken the watermelon for the sake of sesame. It made no sense.

If he had known that Qiu Qin was such an individual who lacked foresight, he would not have married his daughter to him in the past.
