At first, Qin Jun's heart was filled with confusion. Whose call was it?
However, when he took out his phone and saw the incoming number displayed on it, he was stunned.
"Grandma, your call comes at the perfect time… Qin Bing and Qin Lan, those two beasts, not only refused to..."
Immediately, Qin Jun answered, speaking as he connected.
Although Qin Jun didn't know why his great-grandmother was calling at this time, he couldn't bother with it anymore. He immediately played the victim, exaggerating and embellishing the situation to his advantage.
He lied about them refusing to leave and even injuring people, fabricating baseless accusations!
"You beast, shut your mouth!"
However, before Qin Jun could finish speaking, his great-grandmother's angry voice cut him off.
"Grandma, you..."
Qin Jun didn't understand what was happening with his great-grandmother. Why was she suddenly scolding him?
"Look at the good deeds your son, that little bastard, has done! You're going to cause our Qin family to perish!"
The great-grandmother roared into the phone, clearly furious and agitated!
"Grandma, what do you mean? I don't quite understand!"
Qin Jun took a deep breath and asked loudly.
"Don't understand? By the time you do, our Qin family will be no more!"
"You beast! Miss Bai just called, and our Qin family has been directly removed from the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce's preliminary list!"
"Do you know how much money and connections I've spent for this nomination!"
"We were just about to become members of the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce, and it's all because of your son, that beastly Qin Long..."
The great-grandmother became more and more agitated as she spoke. Fortunately, it was over the phone; if Qin Long and Qin Jun were in front of her now, they would likely have been charged at and torn to shreds.
"What? Our Qin family has been removed from the candidate list by Miss Bai?"
Qin Jun exclaimed in shock, disbelief evident in his voice.
"Grandma, what's going on? What exactly is happening? I don't understand what you're saying?"
"How is this matter of Miss Bai removing our Qin family from the candidate list related to my son?"
Qin Jun thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out.
Therefore, he hurriedly asked his great-grandmother.
"It's all because of what that beast did yesterday. Where are Bingbing and Xiaolan? Quickly let them take the call!"
The great-grandmother didn't have time to waste with Qin Jun, as she was extremely anxious.
"They… haven't left yet..."
"Grandma, don't worry, I'll have them take the call right away."
Qin Jun looked up at Qin Bing and Qin Lan not far away, and then, under his great-grandmother's urging, he could only take his phone over.
"Great-grandma wants you to take the call."
As Qin Jun spoke, he turned on the speakerphone and stood by to listen.
At this moment, Qin Jun had a bad premonition!
But there was nothing he could do about it now; he could only stand by and listen and watch.
"Heh heh, here we go?"
Not far away, Ye Fei saw the tone of the Qin family's great-grandmother and knew exactly what had happened.
Instantly, Ye Fei sneered.
The good show, he thought, was finally about to begin!
He had said yesterday that he would make the Qin family's great-grandmother beg them to return to the Qin family!
Ye Fei's words were not mere boasts!
"Great-grandma… it's Xiaolan…"
Qin Lan didn't know what was happening and was very nervous.
Therefore, after taking the phone, she quickly spoke.
"Xiaolan, my good great-granddaughter, Great-grandma was too impulsive earlier and said some harsh words. Please don't take them to heart."
The great-grandmother spoke, her voice incredibly affectionate.
This tone made Qin Lan wonder if she was dreaming!
What was with Great-grandma?
In the past, even when his great-grandmother spoke to her, it was lukewarm, even treating her like an outsider.
But today, she was suddenly so warm!
Was this still the great-grandmother she remembered?
"Xiaolan, what's wrong? Why aren't you speaking? Are you still angry with Great-grandma?"
After the great-grandmother spoke for a long time and saw that Qin Lan remained silent, she quickly inquired.
"No! No! Great-grandma, I'm not…"
Qin Lan snapped back to reality and quickly replied.
"That's good, that's good… Great-grandma was worried you were still angry with me. If you're not angry, Great-grandma feels much better…"
The great-grandmother on the other end of the phone let out a sigh of relief.
"Great-grandma, may I ask why you suddenly called?"
At this moment, Qin Lan's mind was still a blur. She had thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't understand why the great-grandmother who had kicked them out of the Qin family yesterday and even erased them from the family tree.
Was suddenly calling this early in the morning? What for?
"It's like this, Great-grandma was impulsive yesterday. After scolding you, Great-grandma felt very uneasy and couldn't sleep well all night."
"So, after waking up this morning, I felt more and more uncomfortable, and decided to tell you that your branch of the family will return to the main Qin family."
"After all, no matter how wrong you were, your grandfather was my son. How could I bear to erase your family from the family tree..."
The great-grandmother began speaking as soon as Qin Lan asked.
"What?"
Qin Lan's eyes widened in surprise and she exclaimed upon hearing her great-grandmother's words.
Beside her, Qin Bing was equally astonished.
What was going on?
Had Great-grandma lost her mind? Or had she suddenly discovered her conscience?
She had been the one to expel them from the Qin family and remove them from the family tree!
But now, she had suddenly changed her mind!
Excited, happy! It felt unreal, like a dream!
"What's wrong? Aren't you happy?"
The great-grandmother immediately asked upon hearing Qin Lan's exclamation.
"No, Great-grandma, I'm… I'm… too excited, I'm… I'm…"
Qin Lan was somewhat incoherent, not knowing how to express herself.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Beside them, Qin Jun and Qin Long's faces turned extremely grim in an instant!
To have Qin Lan's branch of the family return to the Qin family!
They had never expected their great-grandmother to suddenly change her mind.
However, from the moment the great-grandmother had called earlier, she had started by yelling at them.
Qin Jun vaguely guessed that the reason for his great-grandmother's decision was related to their Qin family being removed from the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce's candidate list, and that it had something to do with Qin Lan!
"Heh heh! Since you're happy, then..."
Seeing Qin Lan's excited and incoherent response, the great-grandmother immediately smiled.
Then, she was about to mention the matter of the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce.
However, before she could finish speaking, Ye Fei suddenly took the phone and said, "Great-grandma, should we thank you then? But you already removed our thirteenth branch yesterday, erased us from the family tree, and even sent your grandson and great-grandson this morning to drive us away!"
"To drive us away and then call us back so easily, what do you take us for? Dogs?"
Ye Fei spoke rather harshly. Qin Lan and Qin Bing dared not offend or provoke this great-grandmother, but he had no such reservations!
"Ye Fei!"
"Brother-in-law!"
Seeing this, Qin Lan and Qin Bing's faces changed drastically, and they quickly called out!
"Don't speak, I told you yesterday that I would handle this!"
Ye Fei sharply raised his head, looked at the two women, and said in a deep voice.
The two women, who had intended to say something, immediately stopped when they saw the expression on Ye Fei's face!
At this moment, they couldn't help but recall Ye Fei's words from yesterday!
Yesterday, Ye Fei had told them more than once that he would make the great-grandmother beg them to return!
At the time, they hadn't taken Ye Fei's words seriously, feeling he was just bragging.
However, what was happening before them now suddenly made them understand… that the great-grandmother's sudden change in attitude was related to Ye Fei!
But the two women were not entirely sure of the specific connection.
