Chapter 114.1 - The Pace of PDA (1)
This night, something big happened at the Qin family’s main house. The eldest brother Qin Zhenren’s illegitimate child Qin Haowen and Qin Zhenyi’s son Qin Chu got into a fight over a woman at a bar. In the brawl, Qin Haowen accidentally pushed Qin Chu onto the road. Just at that moment, a car happened to pass by and slammed into Qin Chu’s body. Qin Chu fell into a coma then and there and was sent to the emergency department of the hospital.
This matter reached all members of the Qin family in an instant, alarming them. Qin Zhenyi immediately rushed to the hospital while Qin Haowen had been dragged away by the police. Qin Zhenli after considering first rushed to the hospital. In an instant, the entire air of the Qin family became even more strained.
On the second morning, Su Yanyi received a report on this matter, and it was a very detailed report.
It had to be said that Su Yanyi had made a lot of arrangements towards the Qin family, or it was more accurate to say that she had made a lot of calculated moves against the Qin family. However, a majority of these were still in the planning stage and hadn’t been implemented. Besides, the most important point was that her plans were only to acquire the Qin family’s shares but not to harm them physically!
The Qin family wasn’t the Wang family. Even though the Qin family’s actions were incomparably hateful, it wasn’t heinous to the point that she wanted to make the Qin family bankrupt and dead. However, she did arrange for surveillance on the members of the Qin family, allowing this scene to be viewed from beginning to end. As for the details of this scene, it was more clear than even that of those present then. That’s why Su Yanyi had received a report, which was the most detailed.
Qin Haowen and Qin Chu arrived at the bar separately to play. After that, they both very coincidentally met the same woman. This woman had some status as well, she was the daughter of some gang boss and had fun very openly. She was very flamboyant; upon seeing the two men fighting for her, she not only did not try to stop them, she had even kept adding oil to fire by saying she was going to pick the best one. After fooling around a bit, the two of them started fighting. Later after that, each of them asked more people for backup and started brawling at the entrance of the bar. Even later after that, Qin Chu was punched onto the road by Qin Haowen. Before Qin Chu could climb back up, a car was heading his way. The only good thing was that the car managed to swerve away at the last moment, that’s why Qin Chu hadn’t died on the spot.
The Qin family had different reactions; Qin Zhenyi was incomparably furious. On the way to the hospital, he had already called Qin Zhenli, scolding Qin Zhenli thoroughly. After that, he directly called around to look for a lawyer, obviously wanting to use this opportunity to do something.
Qin Zhenli had also found a lawyer that night, as well as some people he couldn’t not look for. Who asked Qin Haowen to be arrested.
On the other hand, Qin Zhenren had a kind of ‘sitting on the mountains while watching the tigers fight’ attitude, coldly watching the situation play out.
Of course, to Su Yanyi, this wasn’t the most interesting part. The thing that surprised Su Yanyi the most was Qin Chu’s diagnosis!
Regardless of whether it was Qin Zhenli or Qin Zhenyi, their attitude was the same towards this matter of fighting over jealousy, which was that this was an internal matter. They both used a lot of methods to supress this news. After all, there was too much news regarding the Qin family at the moment!
And the most guarded secret that Qin Zhenyi was hiding was that the injury Qin Chu had sustained because of the accident was very special. His lower body suffered irrecoverable damage. It had already been confirmed in the operation that he had become infertile.
After Su Yanyi had hung up on her underling’s reporting, her fingers tapped the table as she began to consider the impacts and consequences of this matter.
Qin Jiran poured a glass of milk and carried it to Su Yanyi. Seeing her deep in thought, he could not help but to ask: “What’s wrong, what happened?”
Su Yanyi thought about it for awhile then repeated the news she had received, especially the news she was most surprised about. Her instincts told her that this piece of news would have the deepest impact.
After hearing this news, Qin Jiran was very obviously stunned, there was a sort of God unfolding kind of feeling.
“It’s been confirmed that its incurable?” Qin Jiran asked with some uncertainty. Besides him, his father only had Qin Chu as a son. If Qin Chu could not perform, it meant he couldn’t produce an heir. To Qin Zhenyi, this was definitely the greatest blow.
“Confirmed!” The hospital also the Su family’s people. With the Su family’s information network, as long as they wanted to investigate something, there was nothing that couldn’t be found.
At this moment, Qin Jiran somewhat felt that this world was unpredictable. Things changed. Such a thing could even happen.
“Do you think he’ll come looking for you?” Su Yanyi was holding the milk and slowly sipping when she suddenly asked this.
Qin Jiran went silent. He understood Su Yanyi’s meaning but was unable to give a reply. Qin Zhenyi had chosen to abandon him initially. Later on because of profit, he (Qin Zhenyi) had chosen to contact him. In that case, would he (Qin Zhenyi) look for him because of the inheritance issue?
“What would it matter if he looked for me or not, my stance won’t change.” Qin Jiran resolutely answered. He couldn’t change other people’s decisions, but his stance definitely wouldn’t change.
“That’s right, what relation does it have to us.” Su Yanyi said with a cold voice. That’s right, it was only the Qin family’s problem. Since it was something she had done, then what relation did it have to her. They just had to make the appropriate preparations.
After breakfast, Corey came to look for Su Yanyi to watch the matches at the Fighting Beasts Stage again. At first, Su Yanyi had no interest. She felt that instead of watching the competition, she might as well go look at the ocean. She had even considered asking someone to prepare diving suits for them to go play in the ocean. However, Corey persistently invited them, saying that they had a lion and tiger fighting and insisted on bringing them to watch, if not he would follow them all the way.
In order to get rid of this huge lightbulb, Su Yanyi finally pulled Qin Jiran to go to the Fighting Beasts Stage just to appease Corey then leave. However, just as they were about to enter, two women walked in wearing provocative clothes. They looked somewhat familiar as well.
Su Yanyi frowned. Just a look and she was able to ascertain who those two were. Yesterday during Corey and Qin Jiran’s match, she had felt these two were too noisy and had thrown half of glass of wine at them. Who would have thought they would meet here again today.
Beloved Queen Majesty, do you really only think they were noisy? Was it not because those two women were screaming at the Film Emperor that you threw the wine at them?
“Ah, hello to you. I’m Lucia, it’s very nice to see you again. Would I have the honour of inviting you for a glass of wine?”
Su Yanyi looked at these two women. These two women had naturally seen Su Yanyi and co., but obviously their gazes preferred falling on Qin Jiran himself. After seeing Qin Jiran, they unhesitatingly walked over.
Were they trying to seduce her man in front of her? Upon seeing this scene, Su Yanyi felt that her hands were starting to get itchy. In a cold voice, she directly addressed Corey: “You say, if I tossed them into the sea, what consequences would there be?
As a guest, before clearing out the trash, she had to seek the owner’s opinion. At the very least, she couldn’t let the owner not be able to find the trash!
Su Yanyi’s voice was icy. When Corey heard it, he shivered from the cold. He smiled placatingly: “Don’t, how could we make the Elder Miss waste her energy. I’ll get someone to bring them away now.”
After Corey finished speaking, he waved his hand. The surrounding bodyguards that belonged to the Banquet immediately surrounded them, bringing away the two screaming women as well as their bodyguards.
A lot of people around them had seen this scene and their expressions were different thought their reactions were the same; no one stood out for a matter that didn’t involve them. This world was just like that, no matter where it was, they had to be clear on their manner. If you offended someone you shouldn’t offend, you could only blame yourself for not being perceptive enough.
Before Qin Jiran could react, the situation had already ended. Without any expression, he walked forward a step, grabbed Su Yanyi’s hand and looked at Su Yanyi with innocent eyes, as if saying he was not at fault for what just happened!
After chasing away those lustful girls, Su Yanyi pulled Qin Jiran to sit down without any intention of blaming him. How could she blame Qin Jiran for being too attractive.
Since everyone had arrived, the match could start. Corey waved his hand and immediately, there were ten plus strong men carrying two separate large cages onto the stage.
The wild beasts were naturally extremely dangerous. Corey couldn’t actually let these wild beasts out so the competition was held inside the cage. The two cages very magically joined together. After that, the board in the middle was pulled out and the two beasts immediately had nothing blocking them from seeing the other.
The lion’s roar and the tiger’s roar immediately rang out, an interesting battle was about to start!
As compared to the human matches, the people present seemed to enjoy this kind of ferocious beasts fighting more, especially this kind of king vs. king match caused people’s blood to boil.
Angry roars, bites, the claws of the two animals were very quickly dyed with the blood of the other, fighting ferociously.
The tiger was a king of thousands of beasts while the lion was very strong as well, but these two animals were obviously different in a lot of ways. At the very least, tigers were solitary creatures while lions were pack animals. If they were fighting alone, tigers would have the advantage and in the cage, this was the case.
“This tiger is a Siberian Tiger, it’s very fierce. The lion is lacking a bit but the match is not bad right?” Corey asked excitedly. He just liked this kind of fights, more so than human fights.
“Naturally, the tiger is amazing.” At this moment, the Tiger standing in the back couldn’t help but to interrupt.
“Haha, that’s right, it is amazing. What do you say, Sister Yanyi, what do you feel?” In reality, Corey wanted to save some face. The programmes at the bar the previous night were all called meaningless by Su Yanyi so he now wanted to find something interesting for Su Yanyi to watch in order not to weaken the Banquet’s reputation.
“When I was still drinking milk I’d already seen this kind of match, would you still say it’s interesting or not?” Su Yanyi’s tone had that bit of disdain. The Su family’s private island specially reared various wild animals. She had already watched animals fight a lot when she was young, plus there were various animals. Watching the two animals in the cage really was meaningless.
“Ah, I forgot, the Su family has a place to specially raise wild beasts. Sister Yanyi, how about we do an exchange. The ones I have in my hand now aren’t sufficient, why don’t you sell me a few?” Corey had just been worrying over the matter of having enough beasts. The ones he had been raising weren’t strong enough and now, there were stricter measures in place. After training, they still had to wait for a period of time before they could go on stage. If he could get a few from Su Yanyi, he would have enough.
“No door.” She wasn’t willing to let her family’s animals go on stage for this kind of performance. Don’t assume she doesn’t know that the wild animals fought very interestingly on stage but before going on stage, they were given drugs to enhance their stamina and power so that these two animals didn’t just fight for their lives. However, these drugs did do damage to the animals’ bodies and a lot of them had to be put down. Su Yanyi didn’t want to do such a thing.
“Don’t reject me so fast, we can always discuss. Don’t you like ancient artefacts, I can exchange one with you, how about that?” Corey didn’t give up and continued pursuing it.
“Enough with the nonsense, I’m not exchanging. Are the number of animals who die on your ship less than the humans who do? I don’t intend on sending those animals to their death.” Su Yanyi unceremoniously pointed out. Although the Su family operated in the underworld, they still had their principles when it came to conducting business.
Corey was obviously somewhat disappointed. He looked at Su Yanyi with resentment.
Su Yanyi was a bit frazzled by Corey’s gaze. It was really weird for a grown man to be looking at her thus!
Su Yanyi thought for awhile then suddenly thought of a certain matter and said: “This business can’t be done but we can discuss something else.”
Corey’s eyes brightened. He asked curiously: “What do you want to do, I definitely won’t have any problems.” Corey’s family, the Wallens family and the Su family were business partners. His father all along wished that he and this generation of the Su family could also have good relations.
“The Wallens family has a media company which I’ve heard is not bad, do you have any intention of partnering up?” Su Yanyi was in the media and entertainment industry, working together would naturally be in this direction.
“Media? With the Dragon’s Emissary or with Resplendent Entertainment?” Regarding this reply, Corey wasn’t surprised but he was a bit disappointed. He preferred Underworld dealings but the media obviously was not.
“What’s the difference? Do you really think it’s two different companies?” Su Yanyi didn’t answer but asked in reply. She felt that Corey’s question really was pointless.
“That’s true, it’s a family affair, why talk about it as if it belonged to two families. So how do you want to work together?” Corey also felt that his question was somewhat redundant. The Su family had a lot of businesses but they were all a family, there was no need to separate it out so clearly.
In the time after that, everyone was screaming as they watched the performance on Fighting Beasts Stage while Su Yanyi and Corey began discussing their partnership. They separately talked about the media situation in their country and overseas briefly. Qin Jiran listened at a side and felt that it was very interesting. While Su Yanyi was talking, he was afraid that she was thirsty and poured her quite a few cups of water.
Every time Corey saw Qin Jiran pouring Su Yanyi water, he also wanted to push his cup over but before he had a chance to do so, Qin Jiran directly pushed the bottle of spring water over... Must the difference in treatment be so obvious?
Corey felt that the longer he spend with Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran, the more blows he received. He really had an increasing feeling of despise.
The two of them discussed until they reached the matter of having a reality programme. Su Yanyi thought of the programme that Qin Jiran was in the midst of planning and asked: “Jiran, do you think that the programme you’re planning can be added into the partnership plans?”
Country M was an economically advanced society, chasing profits included the media and all related industries. Corey’s Wallens family was also similar but it had to be said that these kind of plans starting for the purpose of profit was the most suitable for everybody. For example, a lot of reality programmes were done pretty well, a lot could be learnt from them as well as worth in partnering up.
“If you guys can confirm your partnership, I can naturally welcome it on my end.” Qin Jiran also understood this principle. If two countries could co-host a selection programme, its final impact would naturally be more far reaching than if they held it alone.
“Then let’s start the partnership between the two companies with this programme. You are also a shareholder of the Dragon Emissary and also the person in charge of this programme. How about leaving this matter to you?” As a very brilliant strategist, Su Yanyi felt that since she had already accomplished the important move of partnering with the Wallens family, then the rest could be left to someone else to do.
Qin Jiran whose workload increased again was not surprised already. Something that had been entrusted to him by his esteemed wife naturally could not be refused!
“Rest assured and leave it to me.” Even if there were problems, he had to talk as if there were no problems. Besides, this kind of situation was something that Qin Jiran was happy to deal with.
Qin Jiran had been around in the entertainment field for so many years and had an understanding of the industry. When Yanyi had handed over the planning for the TV programme, he had already decided to do it well. Now that they were working with the Wallens family, Qin Jiran was even more determined to do it well.
