Forced to Marry a Female Billionaire CEO-Chapter 637: Qin Ya’s Struggle
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's face turned ashen at a visible rate. He retorted, "Xiao Ya, don't talk nonsense. Under my command, Dapeng is only responsible for overseas business. He has absolutely nothing to do with these matters."
At his words, Ouyang Hao and Qin Ya both gave a mocking sneer.
They believed he knew in his heart whether he was telling the truth.
And though Qin Feng was still talking tough, he was already panicking inside.
He certainly wasn't going to make a call to verify Qin Ya's claims, but he knew that their ability to name Dapeng specifically proved that Qin Ya had found some clue.
"Brother, whether you believe me or not is unimportant. I just want to ask you, what do you think Dad's reaction will be when he sees the evidence I have?" Qin Ya sneered.
This time, both Qin Feng and Qin Jinghuan finally panicked.
In Qin Feng's eyes, the Qin Family was already his private property, even with Qin Xiyin still alive. His desire to kill Qin Ya was simply rooted in the fear that she would divide his inheritance after Qin Xiyin's death.
But now, if Qin Ya were to confess everything to Qin Xiyin...
Qin Feng was certain that, given how much Qin Xiyin doted on Qin Ya, he would absolutely lose his rightful claim to inherit the Qin Family.
At that point, Qin Feng would have to flip the table just to protect himself. Doing so would inevitably cause internal strife within the Qin Family Corporation, perhaps even splintering it into pieces.
For Qin Feng, who considered the corporation his personal property, this was a complete and utter loss.
Moreover, a man of his status couldn't guarantee that outsiders wouldn't benefit if he flipped the table and fought a life-or-death struggle against Qin Ya and Qin Xiyin.
That was an outcome Qin Feng could never accept.
Things had come to this point.
Qin Feng took a deep breath. No longer denying or arguing, he asked with a dark expression, "What do you want?"
Hearing this, Qin Jinghuan's face turned ashen.
Under Qin Ya's threat, they still had to admit defeat.
Seeing this, Qin Ya immediately stated her conditions. "It's simple. You will vote, and then you are forbidden from moving against the Wang Family."
"Why? Siding with the Wang Family is detrimental to our Qin Family. Don't you understand that?" Qin Feng said through gritted teeth.
Qin Ya retorted mockingly, "I don't care to explain it to you. Just tell me, do you agree or not?"
Seeing that Qin Ya had no intention of communicating and was leaving no room for negotiation, Qin Feng took a deep breath. After a long moment, he nodded with a grim face. "Fine. But how can you guarantee you won't use this to threaten me again after I cast my vote?"
At these words, Qin Ya laughed. "You may lack sibling affection, but I don't. I'm not that despicable."
As Qin Ya pointedly berated him, Qin Feng's face turned purple with rage.
Seeing his reaction, Qin Ya pulled Ouyang Hao to his feet. "We're leaving."
After the pair left, Qin Jinghuan didn't dare speak for a long time, fearing he would trigger Qin Feng's ire.
But to Qin Jinghuan's surprise, after a long silence, Qin Feng suddenly started laughing, letting out a great, booming laugh. "HAHAHA..."
"Dad, what is it?" Qin Jinghuan asked, astonished.
Has my father been driven mad by the provocation?
"It's nothing." After he finished laughing, Qin Feng's expression turned derisive. "I thought the silly girl would have learned a lesson from all this, but it turns out she's as foolish as ever."
"Dad, what lesson are you saying Auntie doesn't understand?"
"She doesn't understand that sentiment is worthless. Only money matters," Qin Feng sneered. "I thought she would use this as leverage, threatening me for a share of the family's assets or control over important resources. Instead, she just wanted me to cast a vote... Just a vote, what does it matter? Does she really think my vote, combined with their reliance on Hua Xingxue, can actually turn things around for Xu Ke and the Wang Family?"
"Ridiculous! Once Wong Ting is free to act, Xu Ke will learn what a true disaster is."
"As for not targeting the Wang Family... heh, I can deal with them after Dad dies. He doesn't have much longer, anyway..."
Hearing this, Qin Jinghuan's face lit up with joy. "Dad, you have a point!"
If Qin Ya had used this leverage to make Qin Feng bleed, he might have begrudgingly relinquished a great deal of wealth, seeing as Qin Xiyin was still alive.
But since Qin Ya only asked for something so intangible, how could the father and son not be delighted?
However, after the initial joy subsided, Qin Jinghuan was still a little worried. "But Dad, what if Auntie uses this to threaten us again later?"
"Relax. I know exactly what kind of person your aunt is. Since she said she won't, she won't," Qin Feng said mockingly. "I know my own sister very well."
「In Ouyang Hao's car.」
"Brother Hao, I sent the information to Dr. Xu. He said thanks," Qin Ya said softly from the passenger seat.
"Good. We've finally repaid a small part of our debt to him." Ouyang Hao nodded, but seeing Qin Ya's dejected expression, he couldn't help but smile. "What's wrong, my little treasure? Why the long face?"
The pet name disgusted Qin Ya. She frowned and said, "Stop with the cheesiness. We're not kids anymore."
"Then tell me, what's got you down?"
"I'm not exactly unhappy..." Qin Ya sighed, then looked at Ouyang Hao. "Brother Hao, am I too soft-hearted? Did I ask for too little? I could have seized this chance to secure more for the Ouyang Family."
"It doesn't matter. Can't I earn those things myself?" Ouyang Hao chuckled. "If you didn't want to take those things from Qin Feng, then don't. I married you so you could do whatever you want!"
He knew how close Qin Ya and Qin Feng had been as children.
Back then, Qin Feng had fought a group of bullies to protect her, ending up in the hospital. When Qin Ya broke a vase worth five million, Qin Feng took the blame and received a scolding from Qin Xiyin. While they were studying abroad, Qin Feng even faced down a robber's gun to save her, nearly dying in a foreign land...
All of that changed after Qin Feng took control of the Qin Family Corporation, battling his uncle for power and getting entangled in schemes and struggles.
Because of this, Qin Ya had always believed the Qin Family Corporation was what had ruined their relationship.
That was why she never wanted to be involved in any of the corporation's affairs. She even resigned from her position to go and assist Ouyang Hao in the Ouyang Family, just to show Qin Feng she had no interest in vying for power.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, in Qin Feng's eyes, she remained a ticking time bomb that needed to be removed...
Listening to Ouyang Hao, Qin Ya hesitated. "But..."
"No 'buts'. Besides, the last thing I want are assets my wife had to risk her life to get!" Ouyang Hao smiled, then took her hand, warming her cold skin with his palm. "Alright, stop thinking about it. I'll take you to pick up Xiao Jie, and then we'll go home!"
「Meanwhile...」
While Qin Ya was at the Qin residence, Xu Ke had already arrived at the new hideout of Poison Elder and Ghost Elder.
