"If I were you, I would treat Grandpa well. At least in the future, Grandpa will still be able to officially hand the Qi family over to you."
"Of course, if you don't perform well…" Qi Xibei continued. That's another matter."
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
After hanging up, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Actually, she was still very concerned about the old master's life and death.
However, she could not let Qi Xin see how much she cared about the old man.
If she acted like she cared too much, Qi Xin would take advantage of her.
As long as Qi Xin succeeded this time, she would continue to threaten her next time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQi Xibei was not a fool to allow her to threaten her like that.
That was why she acted like she didn't care.
"I think she might have another move." Qi Xibei said.
"I think so too." Qiao Yanjue nodded. "I'll get someone to keep an eye on her."
On the other side, Qi Xin stared at her phone in disbelief after Qi Xibei hung up the call. Her mind was still replaying what Qi Xibei had told her.
Did Qi Xibei really not care about the old man's life or death?!
Even if she threatened her with the old master's life, she was still unwilling to compromise.
"How is it?"
"What did they say?" Gu Guanlin asked anxiously.
"She refused."
Qi Xin shook her head, her expression ferocious and terrifying. "She said that she would not give up her interests for the old master."
"How is that possible!"
Gu Guanlin widened his eyes and shook his head. "She must be lying to you."
"But from her tone, it doesn't seem like she's lying to me at all." Qi Xin shook her head. "Besides, if she really cared about the old master, she wouldn't have done these things."
"No." Gu Guanlin shook his head. "She must be very concerned about Old Master Qi's safety. However, she's lying to you."
Gu Guanlin recalled the incident with Qi Xibei and came to his own conclusion. "She must be using this method to make us lower our guard!"
Qi Xibei did this not because she did not care about the old man, but because she did not want to expose her thoughts.
"But she just won't agree." Qi Xin said with a dark expression.
"She also said that Qi Zhi'an's things have already been given to her, so she's not worried that they'll be angry."
"Is that so?" Gu Guanlin frowned. "In that case…We have to use a heavy dose of medicine!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Heavy medicine?" Qi Xin looked at him. "What do you mean?"
"It's very simple." Gu Guanlin smiled. "That's what she said, but if something really happened to the old master in front of her, would she still be indifferent?"
"You mean...?"
Qi Xin stared at him with wide eyes.
"Yes." Gu Guanlin nodded. "When she saw that the old man was really in danger. How could she not give in?"
Anyway, Gu Guanlin would never believe that Qi Xibei was really so cold-blooded.
"If she doesn't agree, we'll tell her parents about this. At that time, there would definitely be conflicts between them."
Gu Guanlin's words made sense to Qi Xin.
She pondered for a moment and finally made a decision. "Alright, let's do it!"
Perhaps she was only threatening her verbally, so Qi Xibei did not mind.
If she was serious, Qi Xibei would not dare to disobey.
However, she could not let Gu Guanlin know the details.
"Alright, I'll handle this matter."
Gu Guanlin looked at her intensely and nodded. "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
