Grandma turned to Xu Yunxiao and said, "Yunxiao, from now on you will be Jian'er's assistant! Grandma trusts that you can handle this position, don't disappoint me..."

"Grandma..."

Xu Yunxiao was on the verge of tears.

She had worked so hard to build her career, and just as she was about to reap the rewards, she ended up making a wedding dress for someone else!

Anyone would feel upset about this.

Li Cuilan was even more anxious and pleaded with grandma, but grandma waved her hand and said sternly, "Enough, this matter is settled, no more discussion!"

"..."

Xu Yunxiao's heart sank instantly, and tears streamed down her face.

Qin Feng comforted her from the side, "Wife, don't worry, Haohan won't be dealing with Xu Changjian."

Xu Changjian, who was immersed in excitement, heard this and got furious, stood up and cursed, "Damn it, who gave you the face to say that? I'm not capable, but are you?"

"Yeah, just look at yourself!" Cousin Xu Yaxin sneered.

"You trash, how dare you look down on Brother Jian?"

"..."

Seeing this, Qin Feng sneered, "What if you can't sort it out tomorrow?"

"If I can't sort it, I'll eat shit, what about it?"

Xu Changjian shouted.

Qin Feng laughed and spread his hands, "You said it yourself!"

"Heh, if I sort it out, Xu Yunxiao will roll out of the Xu family and won't inherit a penny from the Xu family, how about that?" Xu Changjian laughed.

"Fine!"

Qin Feng agreed.

Seeing this, Li Cuilan was so angry she wanted to slap Qin Feng to death and scolded, "You damn thing! Who let you make such a bet? Are you showing off?"

Then she hurriedly flattered Xu Changjian, "Jian'er, don't stoop to his level, he isn't one of our Xu family, his words don't count."

Seeing the situation, others chimed in with various comments.

"It's not Jian'er's fault, it was that useless outsider who proposed this."

"Yeah, you can't say something and not mean it, right!"

"..."

Without Xu Yunxiao, when it came time to inherit the family property, naturally more would be shared, who wouldn't be happy about that?

Li Cuilan was almost in tears.

The entire family was relying on Xu Yunxiao alone to earn money, if she really got kicked out of the family business, they would be doomed!

She hurriedly pleaded with grandma again.

Grandma calmly put down her teacup and said, "A gentleman's word, swift as a horse, this is what a man should do, if he does not keep his word, how can he be worthy of being a member of our Xu family?"

Thump!

Li Cuilan heard this and collapsed into the chair.

It was clear.

Grandma supported Xu Changjian.

"Hahaha..."

Xu Changjian burst into excited laughter and said to Xu Yunxiao, "Everything that just happened, I recorded it all on my phone, you can't back out, hehe, I'm sending a copy to everyone now, this is evidence..."

Saying that.

He sent the video to all family members, including Xu Yunxiao.

Xu Yunxiao was furious, her eyes red, and she yelled at Qin Feng, "You, you... this is your doing!"

"Trust me!"

Qin Feng looked at her seriously, "He won't succeed!"

Xu Yunxiao wanted to scold him.

But from his eyes, she saw an inexplicably firm look, which oddly calmed her down as well.

The desperate Li Cuilan, extremely angry, wanted to slap Qin Feng dead at the moment but was stopped by Xu Yunxiao, "Don't..."

"Yunxiao, why are you helping him? We are all going to be ruined by this damn thing! Let me beat him to death!"

Li Cuilan shouted angrily.

"It will be alright."

Xu Yunxiao comforted her, then looked at Qin Feng, "Right?"

For some reason.

She instinctively chose to believe Qin Feng.

"Yes!" For a better reading experience, visit *).

Qin Feng affirmed firmly.

At this point, grandma waved her hand and scolded, "Enough! Don't make a fuss about your family affairs here, so as not to be laughed at by outsiders!"

People laughed as if watching a drama.

"Next, onto the second matter," grandma continued, "For this year's seventieth birthday celebration, I am thinking... of changing the location."

"Oh?"

Everyone was surprised.

Grandma always cared about appearances, hosting each birthday celebration at this five-star hotel, inviting numerous relatives and business partners, and spending a great deal as well.

Has she had a change of heart this year, realizing the need to save money?

"Grandma, where would you like to go?" Xu Changjian asked.

"Wanfu Building."

Grandma stated.

Once she had spoken.

Everyone was embarrassed.

It wasn't about saving money; it was about finding a better place...

"It's like this," grandma said, "Firstly, because someone failed to take the blame for Yunxiao, it has tarnished the Xu family's reputation in Lake City and made us a laughingstock. Therefore, the Xu family urgently needs to restore its vigor."

Everyone simultaneously turned their gazes to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng sneered inwardly.

These people are shameless, blaming him for the mistake Xu Changye himself made that embarrassed the Xu family.

Moreover.

If you want to restore vigor, you could well focus on developing the business!

Why all these superficial acts?

Just for show?

"Secondly," grandma stated, "Now that we have formed a partnership with Haohan Company, it's time to step up further. Going to Wanfu Building is also to let everyone see the strength of our Xu family!"

"Good, good, I agree!" Xu Changjian immediately brown-nosed, "Grandma is truly wise!"

"Indeed, we agree too!"

"..."

Others also agreed.

They usually couldn't afford to dine at Wanfu Building, and now they were excited about the chance to go.

Grandma smiled satisfactorily and then said, "So, who will go to Wanfu Building to book the banquet?"

"..."

Those who were excited just a moment ago suddenly quieted down, none spoke.

There was no choice.

Wanfu Building wasn't a star-rated hotel, but it was a symbol of Lake City.

It was a gathering place for the influential, and events like a birthday banquet, which could attract too many assorted guests, were generally not accepted by Wanfu Building.

For a small, third-rate family like the Xu family, it was even less likely to be considered.

Finally.

An intoxicated Xu Changjian, confidently said, "Leave it to me! I'll handle the booking!"

"Good! Truly worthy of being my good grandson!"

Grandma praised.

Others began to flatter.

"Jian'er is so capable, he will definitely be able to make the booking!"

"We believe in Brother Jian!"

"..."

Xu Changjian excitedly downed another drink.

Moments later.

The meeting wrapped up, and everyone dispersed.

Xu Changjian found a designated driver and went to the parking lot to drive, coincidentally going the same way as Xu Yunxiao's family, and called out, "Why are you following us?"

"Who is following you? Our car is also parked over there."

Qin Feng said.

"F*ck, didn't we tell you not to park near us? Driving that old Santana, aren't you embarrassed!"

Xu Changjian scoffed.

Arriving at the car, he pointed to his BMW 5 series, showing it to Xu Yunxiao boastfully, "I'm planning to change cars soon, maybe I'll sell this one to you for cheap? Heh, but I'm afraid with your financial status, you can't even afford a second-hand one!"

Then.

He pointed at a Mercedes-Benz S450 nearby, saying, "See this car? My next car is going to be this. What do you think? High-end enough, impressive enough, classy enough, right? Hahaha, you'll never afford it, can only dream..."

As he was talking.

He suddenly saw Xu Yunxiao taking out car keys, unlocked the car, then opened the door and got into that Mercedes-Benz S450…
