Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Storm is Coming

Moreover, he is now penniless.

This was to be set aside as a dowry for Qiaoqiao.

Furthermore, my second uncle and cousin’s ambitions are growing larger and larger.

I’m afraid that after giving them two store fronts, the next step will be for them to claim the position of heir to the Qin Family.

…

Qin Lang and Qin Yishan returned home.

Both had grim expressions on their faces.

This lucrative path had just been forcefully severed by Qin Yize.

But now they could do nothing about it.

Qin Lang’s face was as dark as water. Just before leaving, grandfather had disclosed his pilfering, giving him no face and also taking back some of his authority.

Now, not only was the shop out of the question, but they had also lost control of a branch company altogether.

But for the time being, he couldn’t do anything. He warned his son a few times and then drove him out.

Feeling frustrated, Qin Yishan spent the evening drinking at a bar.

He was accompanied by his good friend.

He spilled all his troubles to him.

And his good friend had a dark, contemplative look in his eyes.

After taking the intoxicated Qin Yishan back to Qin Lang’s house, he made a phone call to Lin Fanpeng.

Two days later, Qin Lang received a call from his business partner who had provided smuggling sources for their company.

He was just about to say that the deal had fallen through and it was no longer possible to proceed,

when he heard the other person’s hearty laughter, “Brother Qin, I have some good news for you.”

Qin Lang gave a bitter smile, “What good news could there be? I can no longer do this business. If I continue, my great grandfather will definitely send me to jail.”

The other party laughed again, half-jokingly, “Your great grandfather really knows how to sever ties with righteousness.”

Qin Lang remained silent.

This was how his great grandfather had lived his entire life.

He couldn’t bear to see his descendants engage in such businesses.

“Don’t worry, we won’t do this kind of business anymore, but I have another way,” the other assured him.

“What way?” Qin Lang asked eagerly.

“Meet me at our usual club tonight, I’ll introduce you to someone.”

“Okay.”

Qin Lang agreed happily.

The other continued, “By the way, bring your son along too. That kid is sharp in business, very smart and I admire him a lot.”

After some thought, Qin Lang nodded, “Alright.”

The other was a wealthy magnate who roamed around East Asia, with substantial assets, rumored to own three luxurious yachts.

Becoming a man like him had always been Qin Lang’s dream.

In the evening, Qin Lang and Qin Yishan met Lin Fanpeng.

Lin Fanpeng smiled, clapping Qin Lang on the shoulder warmly as he greeted him.

Eventually, the party entered a private room.

Then, the subordinate of the other shut the door of the private room.

At the same time, it isolated all sounds from inside.

…

The affair between Luo Fan and Gu Yalan started absurdly and ended just as absurdly in the shortest amount of time.

The social circle was abuzz with talk, mostly siding with Luo Fan.

After all, no one had seen any interactions between Luo Fan and Gu Yalan before this.

Importantly, for some unknown reason, Gu Cheng’s family seemed to be facing suppression by Gu Qingfeng.

Those in the know understood that the two families had irreparably fallen out.

They also knew that, before Gu Tianfeng returned, both Gu Qingfeng and Gu Tianfeng had nearly perished, so those with more cunning minds naturally suspected more.

Furthermore, the Jade Flute incident at the recognition banquet made many people form negative opinions of Gu Cheng, believing that he was not someone worth associating with.

Additionally, there was the recent jade mine affair. Nobody knew that Gu Cheng had been duped; whether jade was mined there wasn’t their concern, but they did know Gu Cheng’s mother had spent fifty million to buy the jade mine in Diannan.

Fifty million.

Where did that come from?
