Chapter 4: Family Banquet

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

When Tang Li, who was wearing a bright yellow cheongsam, walked in with Qi Yihan, who was wearing a black suit, the young men of the Qi family stared at her so intensely that their eyes could not move.

“Ah, Yihan and Xiao Li are back.” First Madam scanned Tang Li from head to toe and snorted inwardly: Dressed like a sexy bunny at the family banquet. Who is she trying to seduce?

Tang Li first swept her gaze over everyone. When she saw that everyone’s expressions were extremely interesting, her eyes shifted and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She gestured to the bodyguards behind her. “Bring in the gifts that Yihan and I have prepared for everyone.”

Not only were the others surprised, even Qi Yihan turned to look at her.

Everyone had the same thought: What is this woman up to?

The bodyguards quickly brought in two boxes of gifts.

Tang Li took out a few gifts and walked towards her three brothers. “Recently, Yihan has been busy, so we rarely return to the Qi Mansion. I think everyone must be missing us. Actually, we also miss you guys a lot, so I especially got someone to prepare a gift for everyone today.”

At this point, she had already delivered the gifts to her three brothers.

The three of them did not intend to reach out their hands and take it.

This made the others feel awkward for her, but at the same time, they felt that it was really fun to watch.

Only Qi Yihan, who stood by the door without moving, frowned.

What was this woman doing!

“First Master, Second Master, Third Master, why aren’t you accepting the gifts? Are you still angry at Yihan and think that he stole your position?”

…

Other than Qi Yihan, everyone’s expressions changed.

The living room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

“Sugar… sugar… want…”

Seeing the box in the bodyguard’s hands, the grandson in First Madam’s arms suddenly reached out for the candy, breaking the silence.

Some things were better left unsaid because once it was said, everything would crumble.

No one believed that Tang Li did not know about that.

So this woman did it on purpose?

First Master’s face darkened. He suddenly shouted at First Madam, “You’re making a fool of yourself! Take Junjun away!”

Zhang Xinya hurriedly carried Junjun and strode towards the door.

Junjun didn’t get the candy. He struggled in Zhang Xinya’s arms and cried, “Candy… want… wah wah…”

When Zhang Xinya walked over to Qi Yihan, who was standing by the door, she hugged JunJun tightly and walked around Qi Yihan quickly as if she was avoiding a plague.

After Junjun was carried out, First Master looked at Qi Yihan and snorted coldly. “Since you guys aren’t back just for dinner tonight, let’s talk about father.”

Tang Li stopped sending gifts and turned to look at Qi Yihan, who was still standing there. She suddenly felt a little unhappy. He was part of this family, so why was he standing by the door like an outsider?

At that thought, Tang Li gestured at Qi Hao and Qi Ming, who were sitting there. “First Nephew, Second Nephew. As a junior, you are not allowed to sit when the elders are here. Has no one taught you table manners?”

Being educated by a woman younger than them, the two of them immediately blushed.

First Master and First Madam blushed as well.

What was wrong with Tang Li tonight? Wasn’t she always the quiet one before?

First Master cast a cold glance at Tang Li before letting Qi Hao and Qi Ming have their seats.

After giving up her seat, Tang Li waved at Qi Yihan in a gentle and virtuous manner. “Hubby, come and sit.”

Everyone instinctively looked at Qi Yihan.

Everyone knew that Qi Yihan married Tang Li in order to take over the Qi Corporation. Tang Li also had a gigolo outside, so the two of them had no feelings for each other.

This woman must have another motive for acting so abnormally.

They suddenly recalled Qi Yihan’s attitude towards Tang Corps.

If everyone else thought that way, Qi Yihan would definitely think the same way. He glanced at Tang Li coldly before walking to the chair and sitting down.

Tang Li also sat down.

Qi Yihan was clearly twice the size of his brothers, but as he sat there, his aura made him seem like he was the host, like a king meeting his subjects.

The three masters looked somewhat embarrassed. The younger ones did not even dare to breathe loudly.

First Master said with a livid face, “The hospital has already issued a notice of critical illness. Father will only have a month at most. The Qi Group is the empire that Father has built. Even if you are the CEO of the Qi Group now, after Father passes away, all of us will have the right to inherit. At that time, we will have the right to ask for shares.”

As long as the shares were divided, they would have advantages over Qi Yihan. They didn’t believe that their younger brother wouldn’t take out what was rightfully theirs.

As soon as First Master finished speaking, Second Master immediately continued, “After Father passes away, I want to take out all the shares that belong to me. When the time comes, I don’t care if it’s cash or shares transfer.”

Third Master didn’t go on, “I’m telling you now so that you can be prepared. Don’t say that the three of us are ganging up on you.”

Tang Li snorted, telling herself, “Humph! Aren’t you guys ganging up on him just now?

Tang Li turned to look at Qi Yihan, wanting to see his reaction.

Qi Yihan didn’t react at all, still looking as cold as ever.

“Are you done?” Qi Yihan asked coldly. “Father isn’t dead yet. Isn’t it a little too early for you to be in such a hurry to split the inheritance?”

“The doctor has already issued a notice of critical illness.”

“The doctor said that Father only has a month left!”

The three of them replied at the same time.

Qi Yihan pursed his lips tightly, his body emanating an intimidating aura that frightened them all.

He glanced at his three brothers and said in a domineering tone, “As long as Father is alive, I will be the leader of the Qi Group. If you guys try me, I’ll take away all your shares!”

“How dare you!”

“What do you want to do!”

“Qi Yihan, don’t go overboard!”

Smack!

The living room suddenly became chaotic. The three masters smacked the table, smashed the cups, and pointed at Qi Yihan’s nose, threatening and cursing him. They thought this could scare Qi Yihan.

Tang Li looked at Qi Yihan’s slightly clenched fists and did not believe that he could still be able to tolerate it.

As Tang Li expected, a group of well-trained bodyguards rushed in.

The bodyguards were all strong and aggressive.

They immediately calmed the three angry masters.

“Qi Yihan, what are you trying to do?” First Master gritted his teeth in anger.

Qi Yihan brushed off his shoulder before looking at them. “I’m here to attend the family banquet tonight, not to fight for the inheritance. Before my father passes away, you’d better behave yourselves, or else…”

At this point, he stood up and said in a harsh voice, “I will make sure you get nothing.”

After saying that, he walked toward the door.

It was obvious that he did not want to stay here any longer.
