Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife

"Great-Grandfather, save me..." Qin Cang’s voice trembled.

But the old patriarch of the Qin Family ignored him. He was well aware that while the loss of one descendant wouldn’t cripple the Qin Family, his own absence would utterly ruin it. Therefore, there was no need to fall out with Chen Xiao.

Most importantly... even if he did make a fuss, it would be useless!

SLASH! SLASH!

Two streaks of cold light flashed past, and blood bloomed from Qin Cang’s feet. The next moment, he collapsed powerlessly to his knees...

Qin Long’s face was deathly pale. Although Qin Cang wasn’t his only son, he was one he favored. Now, he was crippled.

Qin Cang’s eyes brimmed with venomous hatred as he glared at Chen Xiao and Qin Lan like a vengeful ghost.

Chen Xiao squinted. "Today, I’m sparing your lives not because I’m afraid to kill you, but because Qin Lan pleaded on your behalf. It’s only out of consideration for that last shred of kinship that you’ve been granted this chance to live.

"I’m also warning you, this time was just about settling scores.

"But if anything happens to Qin Lan...

"No matter who is behind it, I will hold you accountable first! Not only will you die, but your children and your wives will die as well!"

At his domineering words, Qin Xiang and Qin Cang shuddered.

"Do you understand?!"

After speaking, Chen Xiao swept a cold glance over them.

The two men dared not meet his gaze.

Afterward, Chen Xiao strode away with Qin Lan.

Soon, the Qin Family’s leadership changed hands. Qin Lan officially took power.

As this news spread, all of Zhonghai shuddered.

After all, most people understood the Qin Family’s situation. Logically, in the patriarchal Qin Family, a woman like Qin Lan should have had absolutely no chance of rising to power, regardless of her capabilities. And yet, the Qin Family had suddenly reversed its long-held stance.

However, what truly sent tremors through Zhonghai was an order issued from above regarding the death of Ling Chong.

The content of this order silenced everyone instantly.

After all, the scene of Chen Xiao’s murderous rampage at the Ling Estate had been witnessed by many. As Ling Chong was a member of the Jinyi Bureau, the authorities should have, by all rights, pursued the killer at all costs. Yet in the end, all that was issued was a gag order.

Instantly, all witnesses shut their mouths, no longer daring to discuss the matter.

The truth behind the Ling Family’s demise circulated only within certain circles. Most people didn’t even dare to whisper about it.

In just two or three days, Qin Lan seized control of the Qin Corporation with lightning speed, cementing her command over the entire Qin Family.

With Chen Xiao’s help, the few little karami in her path were no obstacle at all.

Suddenly, Qin Lan became the most sought-after business queen in all of Zhonghai.

"Next, it’s time to make a move on the Ling Family’s assets."

"Since our Qin Family brought down the Ling Family, their flesh is ours to carve up. Anyone who wants a piece of the pie will need my, Qin Lan’s, approval!"

Chen Xiao nodded. "Indeed."

After the Ling Family’s collapse, their major industries were left without leadership. The other great families were already flexing their muscles, eager to gobble up these juicy morsels. But, to a certain extent, the Ling Family’s fall had nothing to do with them. If they wanted a bite, they would need Qin Lan’s permission.

"The Ling Family owns two casinos, three high-end clubs, and a corporation."

"The corporation is the real prize."

"I want to swallow the Ling Corporation whole."

Chen Xiao nodded indifferently. "Whatever you decide, I’ll support you."

"Then tonight, I’ll call the major families together for a banquet to carve up the spoils. You have to back me up."

As she spoke, she coquettishly wrapped her arms around Chen Xiao’s neck.

Chen Xiao licked his lips. "Then... that will depend on your performance."

The two had spent the past few days in a world of their own, so Qin Lan knew exactly what to do next. She rolled her eyes at Chen Xiao before silently straddling him...

The banquet Qin Lan organized proceeded as scheduled. All the major families and powers made an appearance, making for a very lively scene.

But beneath the surface, undercurrents were surging.

Everyone knew Qin Lan wouldn’t organize such a grand banquet without reason. It was most likely to discuss how to carve up the Ling Family’s assets—a matter of great concern to the upper echelons of Zhonghai society.

After an intimate moment with Qin Lan in the dressing room, a satisfied Chen Xiao headed to the banquet hall. He found a secluded corner and sat down. He had never liked such banquets and always chose a more remote spot.

Soon, a stunning figure in a formal gown appeared before him.

Looking up, he saw it was Li Kani.

"Well now, Miss Li, you’re looking quite stunning today," Chen Xiao teased with a smile.

Her dress perfectly showcased her stunning, curvaceous figure. With a voluptuous, Western-style physique, she was exceptionally eye-catching.

Furthermore, as the only daughter and future sole heir of the Li Family, she was a great catch in the eyes of Zhonghai’s young masters.

Li Kani sat down beside him without ceremony.

"Is it all right if I sit here?"

"Be my guest," Chen Xiao shrugged. "Just don’t touch my fruit plate."

Li Kani was speechless.

"Miss Li, long time no see. May I have this dance?" a suave and handsome young man soon asked, stepping forward.

"I’m sorry, you may not," Li Kani said flatly. "We aren’t acquainted."

Undeterred, the handsome young man sat down at the table and made himself at home. "To be rejected by Miss Li truly breaks my heart. Could it be because of this fellow?"

He shot Chen Xiao a disdainful glance.

Chen Xiao frowned. "You’re not welcome here."
