Chapter 526: Chapter 526 How Do You Have the Nerve to Say These Words

Qin Jianghui didn’t notice his cousin’s distress and spoke with a careless swagger, "That was forced on me by Grandpa. I never liked her, and after Old Master Chu passed away, she’s just an orphan girl who won’t be of any help to me."

When Jiangchao heard this, he said with contempt, "How can you have the face to say such things?"

Now Qin Jianghui also sensed something amiss. "Cousin, what do you mean by that?"

Jiangchao placed the cigarette in his mouth, took a harsh drag, then fiercely stubbed out the butt on the wall. "What I despise most are treacherous and disloyal people."

Qin Jianghui hadn’t expected his own cousin to say such a thing. "Cousin, Grandpa approved calling off the engagement with Chuyunyi. Are you criticizing Grandpa with your words?"

Jiangchao looked at him, twisting the truth to his advantage. "If you hadn’t made such a fuss, would Grandpa have agreed to the Qin and Chu families calling off the engagement?"

Qin Jianghui was now somewhat displeased. "It’s called off, so it’s called off. Grandpa hasn’t said anything. Why are you so concerned about it, Cousin?"

Jiangchao threw the extinguished cigarette butt onto the ground. "Someday you’ll regret it."

He knew about his cousin’s relationship with Long Yueyue. Given Long Yueyue’s arrogant and vain nature, if she were to marry into the family, he feared there would be no peace for the Qin Family ever again. But he wouldn’t say this out loud. The path was his cousin’s own choosing, and even if he had to crawl, he’d have to walk it. He was waiting to see his cousin become a laughingstock.

If it weren’t for his cousin’s genuine abilities and influence with Grandpa, he wouldn’t be showing him any goodwill. After all, Qin Jianghui might need to tap into his cousin’s network of contacts someday.

Inside the house, Second Brother Qin Honggang actually disagreed with the approach taken by his father and eldest brother. Recently, there had been significant changes, with many people who were sent away for "reeducation" returning to their work positions. Of course, he knew that Qin Lijuan’s case was different; she had violated the law, unlike the others. Her only way out was to behave well and seek a sentence reduction. From what he could see at the moment, it wouldn’t be long before Qin Lijuan’s status would no longer affect the work and lives of those around her as it had before. Of course, to say it wouldn’t have any impact at all would be impossible. If they were to publicly disown Qin Lijuan in the papers now, people would only see the Qin Family as cold-hearted, and afterwards, it’s doubtful that many families would want to associate with the Qin Family. He understood this principle, and naturally, the old man did too. But for the sake of immediate gains and losses, the old man still chose the present course of action.
