In the reception room
After the two left, Qin Lei continued to endure Old Master Huo's scrutinizing gaze.
"Grandpa, please help me make a connection, give me a chance, let Beishi come back?" Qin Lei's hands were clasped together the whole time. He was actually very nervous, and his palms were sweating profusely.
Old Master Huo couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Give me a reason why you have to go back within an hour, and tell me."
The reason? Qin Lei is so focused on getting Luo Beishi back into the Qin Family, has he really forgotten what the real reason was?
Was it his belated act of affection?
No, there's actually another important reason. Qin Lei said with absolute certainty, " Beishi can go back and become the heir of the Qin Group. He has the talent. Besides, I also hope he can inherit a portion of the Qin Family's wealth."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Huo tightened his grip on his cane, a smirk playing on his lips, and asked again, "Do you think he would lack these things when he was young? His own worth is comparable to yours; do you think he would care?"
Qin Lei asked, bewildered, "Then what does he care about...?"
Old Master Huo chuckled again, "Perhaps there are some things he pursued, but no longer needs. You know what level he's reached now. So, do you think he'd even look at anything from your Qin Family?"
Actually, you can compare yourself to the Luo Family Luo Family and see where you fall short, which is why you preferred to return to the Luo Family rather than stay in the Qin Family when you were young.
Qin Lei only knew how to coax people back, but he had no idea how many outrageous things his Qin Family had done to cause such utter disappointment.
Qin Lei remained silent for a long time after hearing these words. He had always known that Luo Beishi had been framed, but he hadn't taken any action...
Old Master Huo, " Old Liu, send him out. I believe Mr. Qin will seriously consider how to be a father."
All the way from the Huo Family's old residence back to the Qin Family, Qin Lei remained silent. Instead, after Qu Wanying returned to her room, he summoned Qin Feilin to the study and bluntly stated, "After the banquet, investigate every single detail of the conflict between Luo Bai and Xiao Shi."
Qin Feilin has already begun investigating, including the two's affairs with the Luo Family; he has already sent people over. "Yes, Father."
Qin Lei carefully examined his eldest son's lifeless face. "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Perhaps in a while, Father's complexion will be even worse than mine." Qin Feilin left with this cryptic remark.
If Luo Beishi at the Qin Family caused psychological or physical problems, then according to Qin Feilin, Qin Lei is not innocent.
They were all perpetrators, using passive-aggressive tactics, standing by indifferently, and showing disregard or even hostility towards Luo Beishi.
Qin Lei, as the head of the family, couldn't possibly be unaware of this. In other words, if Qin Lei had intervened even slightly, Luo Beishi's situation would have been very different.
Even if Qin Lei realizes his mistake early, his eldest son, Qin Feilin, will still include him in the list of abusers.
Indeed, in his eyes, Qin Lei could not escape responsibility.
Qin Feilin sneered all the way back to the company. Yes, he was looking forward to it, looking forward to the reaction after he found out what had happened.
Father, can he still pretend to be innocent?
Qin Lei is truly a complete and utter self-deceiving liar.
next day
At the banquet, the Qin Family publicly announced that Luo Beishi was Qin Family biological son.
As soon as the news broke, the entire aristocratic family, and even the gossip media, were discussing who was actually usurping the position.
Although the Qin Family is not as powerful as the Huo Family, it is still one of the top families, and many people will be invited to attend.
When Qin Lei, the head of the Qin Family, announced this to the outside world, many people were shocked and immediately posted about it on their WeChat Moments.
The topic has sparked heated discussions online.
"Damn, so that means Luo Beishi is the real young master. The Luo Family is just a third-rate family, while the Qin Family is a top-tier wealthy family. However, the Qin Family has always kept a low profile and remained mysterious."
"Holy crap, so what does the Qin Family mean by this? What does it mean that they announced Luo Beishi was their son?"
"I'd also like to know, is Luo Beishi's money related to the Qin Family?"
"Wasn't it said that Luo Bai's adoptive parents were from a humble family? Is there any truth left in Luo Bai's mouth?"
"I'm dying of laughter, I want to see Luo Bai's reaction."
" The Luo Family is really ridiculous. Luo Beishi, it's clearly Luo Bai who's the one taking over."
"I'm different. What I admire most about the Qin Family is their shamelessness. What's the point of announcing it now? I heard they switched it back years ago, why are they only announcing it now?"
"What were you pretending to be pitiful for Luo Beishi? Your family is clearly very wealthy."
Seeing the heated online discussions, Luo Bai's lips trembled with anger.
Why? When he was with the Qin Family, they were just a nobody, but the Luo Beishi appeared, the Qin Family suddenly re-emerged?
He had been deceived by the Qin Family all along. After watching the video of the banquet, he was truly enraged. His three older brothers showed no surprise whatsoever, and their words and actions were humble and polite when dealing with the guests.
So, he was the only one kept in the dark?
He angrily called Qu Wanying, but couldn't get through.
"250, why, why is Luo Beishi so lucky? Everything is his!" Luo Bai smashed the glass bottle next to him against the wall. The sound of shattering was like a death scream in the dim room before it stopped.
250: "Host, since that's the case, why don't you go find them and ask why? Besides, they spoil you so much, they'll definitely tell you."
After hearing 250's words, Luo Bai rallied himself again, "That's right, I'm going to question them about why they've been putting on an act in front of him for 20 years!"
When Luo Beishi saw the news, he was speechless. The way the Qin Family was acting made people think that his money came from the Qin Family.
He immediately logged onto his blog to respond to netizens' questions: First, my money has nothing to do with the Qin Family.
Secondly, I have severed ties with the Qin Family. I don't have a written statement because I was never registered in the Qin Family's household register, so I thought it wouldn't be necessary.
Third, please ask the Qin Family not to disturb me. My husband just woke up, and I don't want him to be upset by seeing these things.
Finally, I urge all netizens to refrain from personal attacks against me and to be mindful of their words; otherwise, I will pursue legal action.
When the news from Luo Beishi came out, not only were the members of the aristocratic families shocked, but netizens were also stunned.
Unexpectedly, Luo Beishi responded a day after the matter had been brewing.
Moreover, the responses were even more explosive than what the media had reported during their interviews.
Previously, the Luo Family could at least be suppressed by Luo Beishi, but now, Luo Beishi's attitude towards the Qin Family, evident in every word of his blog, screams "Don't mess with me."
It has to be said that life in the wealthy is truly fascinating, with millions of netizens thoroughly enjoying the gossip, especially the stories about the rich and powerful.
It turns out that Luo Beishi was the real young master; who would have thought there would be such an unexpected twist?
