"My child, Qin Beiting, you call us father?" Qin Beiting squinted his eyes, a mocking glint in the corner of his eyes as he looked at Mo Chao and Shen Yao, "What makes you qualified?!"
"Your wishes are irrelevant, as long as the fairy miss agrees!" Mo Chao said, "I believe the fairy miss won't mind the baby having a few more fathers."
"Exactly! As long as the child is willing to call us dad!" Shen Yao chimed in.
Qin Beiting: "..."
He had seen shameless people, but never this shameless!
"I don't care if they become fathers or not, I want to be the godmother, and my baby will have a betrothal with your family later," Ruan Tianxin said.
"Darling, we don't even know the baby's gender yet, isn't it a bit early to arrange a betrothal?" Shao Chen said.
"Gender doesn't matter, as long as it's a betrothal!" Ruan Tianxin said, "The future will definitely be more open than now, and same-sex marriage might even be legal."
Qin Beiting: "........."
He should keep the young lady away from them in the future, lest they corrupt his offspring!
After Yu He finished briefing Ye Zizheng on stock matters, Cheng Lizhu took the phone and chattered with her for a while longer, telling her to take care of herself and other such things.
When she hung up and returned, she happened to overhear their conversation about children and asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"
"We're discussing arranging betrothals for our future children!" Ruan Tianxin said.
Yu He: "..."
They weren't even married yet, weren't they thinking a bit too far ahead?
"The Li family has released news again, it seems their new round of financing has gone very smoothly,"祁楠 said at this moment, looking at the browser news that popped up on his phone.
His mention of it shifted the conversation from children to the matters of the Li family and the Qin Corporation. Yu He didn't pay much attention.
After dinner, Shen Yao prepared to organize the activities for the latter half of the night, suggesting singing and drinking. Qin Beiting, considering Yu He's current special condition, refused. The easily intoxicated Yu He had no interest in drinking and was glad for the excuse.
Ruan Tianxin and the others, thinking that she was pregnant and couldn't drink, didn't insist, and they left first.
Yu He and Qin Beiting returned to the courtyard house at ten o'clock.
The clinic had already closed, and there were few pedestrians on the street, making the Rolls-Royce parked in front of the courtyard house unusually conspicuous.
Seeing them return, Butler Qin got out of the passenger seat and opened the rear door for Qin Yongchao, who alighted from the car.
Qin Beiting's brow furrowed in displeasure upon seeing him.
As Yu He got out of the car to open the door, Qin Yongchao stepped forward and said, "Yu He, can we talk?"
"Are you never going to stop?" Qin Beiting got out of the driver's seat, shielded Yu He behind him, and said coldly.
Seeing his protective stance towards Yu He, Qin Yongchao's face darkened. "I'm not here for you today."
He then looked at Yu He. "I'm here for Yu He, to understand why she resigned."
He wasn't looking for him, which surprised Qin Beiting slightly, and he felt a hint of sarcasm. Qin Yongchao couldn't bring himself to die, so he had given up on getting him back to the Qin Corporation, had he?
As for Yu He's resignation email to the Qin Corporation headquarters, he was aware of it. He hadn't expected Qin Yongchao to come in person, and judging by his demeanor, he had been waiting here for quite some time.
It seemed the Qin Corporation was truly short of capable people.
"I'm not short of money, and I don't want to do it anymore. That's just how willful I am, is that not allowed?" he said coldly.
Qin Yongchao was momentarily speechless. "I'm not talking to you! Move aside, I need to speak with Yu He."
Qin Beiting refused to budge. Yu He took his hand and stepped out from behind him. Qin Beiting frowned, but Yu He gave him a reassuring look.
Seeing this, Qin Yongchao turned, preparing to get back into the car to talk to her privately, so as to prevent Qin Beiting from butting in.
Butler Qin opened the rear door of the Rolls-Royce, but Yu He said, "Let's talk here."
Qin Yongchao paused, glancing at Yu He, then at Qin Beiting.
"There's nothing he can't hear about this matter," Yu He added.
Seeing this, Qin Yongchao realized their relationship was deeper than he had anticipated and had no choice but to compromise.
"What do you want to make you stay with the Qin Corporation? We can discuss increasing your base salary or profit-sharing ratios, even shares in the Qin Corporation. As long as you're willing to stay, I can give it all to you," he said.
Qin Mian had already investigated the money in Ye Zizheng's account, most of which had been transferred by Yu He.
Yu He had asked Ye Zizheng to buy stocks in the Qin Corporation and hold such a large stake, in reality, she wanted to become a shareholder of the Qin Corporation, didn't she?
If she took control of the Qin Corporation shares and then married Qin Beiting when she was older, their combined shares would put them far ahead of other shareholders in the Qin Corporation, and the Qin Corporation would rightfully belong to them.
"If I say, I want the Qin family to publicly reveal the truth about the death of Third Master Qin back then, would you agree to that too?" Yu He asked faintly.
Qin Yongchao:!
She didn't want shares in the Qin Corporation?!
"This matter was concluded twelve years ago. What's the point of bringing it up now?" His expression turned stern.
Yu He scoffed, "Was the person concluded to be the culprit twelve years ago the real killer?"
Qin Yongchao fell silent. Ever since the Huang family had hired someone to kill Shu Yun'er, he had also harbored doubts about the truth behind his third brother's death. He had privately used his connections to meet Qin Yongyi once.
He didn't deny that he wasn't the killer, only saying that it didn't matter anymore, as long as the Qin family could continue to develop well.
The current Qin Corporation was chaotic enough; bringing this matter up again would only make it more so.
Seeing his silence, Yu He knew his intentions and couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
She knew that Qin Yongchao would absolutely not agree, which was why she had deliberately submitted her resignation after Li Sichen's press conference, forcing him to come find her, and then deliberately made such a demand.
She wanted to leave the Qin Corporation with no way out!
"Then we have nothing to discuss. I won't see you out," Yu He said, opening the door.
Qin Yongchao refused to leave and said persistently, "The new chip design is not just beneficial for the Qin Corporation's interests; it benefits the country's technological development. If successfully researched and developed, it can secure a place for our country in the international technological arena. Setting aside personal grudges, don't you have greater ambitions yourself?"
"Yes," Yu He replied.
Qin Yongchao's eyes lit up. He knew that someone as outstanding as her would surely have greater ambitions.
Just as he was about to continue speaking, he heard Yu He say, "But my choice is not limited to the Qin Corporation. For example, XS Group is also quite good."
Hearing this, Qin Beiting's eyes sparkled with a hint of joy.
"They approached you?" Qin Yongchao's heart sank slightly upon hearing the company's name, "It's XS Group again!"
Qin Yongchao: "The financial strength of their group is definitely not comparable to my Qin Corporation. They probably can't afford the salary you're looking for!"
Qin Beiting's thin lips parted, wanting to retort. Although XS Group didn't seem as financially strong as the Qin Corporation, he could give the entire XS Group to Yu He. Could Qin Yongchao give her the entire Qin Corporation?
But he ultimately held back, wanting to see how the young lady would reply.
"But their character is better than the Qin Corporation's!" Yu He said.
Qin Yongchao was instantly rendered speechless.
