At first, Qin Xiaoya brought back the elixir and saved Qin Baonan's life. Grateful, Qin Baonan had always wanted to meet Jiang Chen. Eventually, he did get to meet him, but Jiang Chen's demeanor was clearly domineering. Qin Baonan's gratitude turned into wariness, and he no longer wished to see him.
This time, when Jiang Chen visited again, Qin Baonan was unsure of his intentions. If it was for his granddaughter's status, it wouldn't be a problem. Although it was meddling in affairs that didn't concern him, Qin Baonan dared not voice any objections.
Unbeknownst to Qin Baonan and the others, half an hour later, a Rolls-Royce slowly drove into the courtyard of the Qin Family Villa.
Qin Baonan and the others, who were waiting in the hall, quickly stood up and hurried to greet him.
"Mr. Jiang, you’ve arrived! I apologize for not welcoming you properly," Qin Baonan said as he rushed to Jiang Chen’s side just as he stepped out of the car.
"Old Qin, I’m here just to have a chat with the Qin family. Let’s sit down and talk," Jiang Chen replied with a light smile.
However, the seemingly gentle words from Jiang Chen sounded like hidden daggers to Qin Baonan's ears, sharp and unsettling. Despite his unease, Qin Baonan still invited Jiang Chen into the villa's hall.
Jiang Chen casually settled onto the sofa, leaning back with his legs crossed, exuding an air of relaxed confidence. Meanwhile, Qin Baonan did not dare to sit down; it felt as if he were standing in punishment before Jiang Chen.
"Old Qin, please take a seat," Jiang Chen gestured towards the nearby sofa.
It seemed that Jiang Chen was taking charge of the situation here at the Qin family’s residence, yet Qin Baonan didn’t even dare to sit properly. He perched himself on the edge of the sofa.
As for the other members of the Qin family, since Jiang Chen did not mention them, they also refrained from sitting down.
"Where is Qin Tong?" Jiang Chen asked directly upon noticing that he did not see Qin Xiaoya's uncle.
"He... he hasn't been feeling well lately and is resting at home," Qin Baonan explained awkwardly.
Jiang Chen let out a cold laugh. "I suppose he wants to rest forever."
His words tightened the hearts of everyone in the Qin family.
"No! He really is unwell," Qin Baonan hurriedly clarified.
"Never mind. I'm not here to find him. The reason I came tonight is that I've heard rumors about your family making things difficult for my maid. Is there any truth to that?" Jiang Chen spoke in a calm tone.
Naturally, Qin Baonan would not make things difficult for Qin Xiaoya; after all, she had become the president of the Qin Family Group with his support. However, as Clan Leader of the Qin family, he understood that backing Qin Xiaoya would lead to discontent among other descendants. Thus, he often chose to turn a blind eye to their difficulties with her while also wanting to use this opportunity to toughen her up.
Of course, since Jiang Chen brought up this matter now, he knew he had to align with Jiang Chen’s perspective.
"Mr. Jiang, it's just some family disputes. It won't affect Qin Xiaoya at all, I assure you. As long as I am alive, no one from the Qin family can touch her. Among the younger generation of our family, Qin Xiaoya is the most outstanding. I trust her with the Qin family's enterprises," Qin Baonan said.
As he spoke, he glanced at his granddaughter. Qin Xiaoya quickly added, "Yes, Young Master, my grandfather has always treated me well. With him protecting me, no one can make things difficult for me."
"Old Qin, you certainly treat Qin Xiaoya well. However, I've heard that your eldest son strongly opposes her taking power. What do you suggest I do about your eldest son?" Jiang Chen said lightly.
