From Sidekick to Bigshot

The entire meeting room was quiet for quite some time.

Everyone looked at Qin Chuan nervously.

Although they did not know what Qin Chuan was thinking, they knew that in this company, Qin Chuan could not win against its largest shareholder, Microsilver Venture Capital.

There was a confident smile on Long Yuetian’s face. She was not at all intimidated by Qin Chuan’s aura.

In fact, there was even a hint of contempt on Long Yuetian’s face.

Qin Chuan was unable to refute Long Yuetian’s words.

After a long period of silence, Long Yuetian smiled confidently before she said: “Well since CEO Qin seems okay with this, let’s start the shareholders meeting.”

After that, Long Yuetian took her seat.

During the meeting, the atmosphere was incredibly depressing. No one dared to breathe loudly.

Once the meeting ended, Long Yuetian was the first to leave the meeting room.

As soon as she left the room, Long Yuetian sent a message to Jian Yiling: [Cutie, I’ve accomplished the mission! Please praise me! Give me a kiss~]

After a moment, a notification appeared on her phone. It was Jian Yiling’s reply: [Thank you for your hard work.]

There was no kiss.

Long Yuetian: [No no, it wasn’t hard work! I will do anything for my cutie. Ahh, I really should have taken a photo just now. Qin Chuan’s face was so upset! It’s hilarious! Tch, how dare he mess with you! You own his company!]

Jian Yiling: [Mhmmm.]

Long Yuetian: [Cutie, is there anything else I need to do besides this? I like helping you with things! I’d be super happy if you would give me a kiss after I finish my task.]

Jian Yiling: [Nothing else for now. You’re a woman.]

Long Yuetian: [I’m only asking for a kiss because I’m a woman! If I was a man, I’d be drowned by the vault of vinegar you’re living with!]

Jian Yiling: [He’s not a vault of vinegar.]

Long Yuetian: [Only you think that.]

After Long Yuetian left, the other shareholders also left one after another. Finally, only Qin Chuan and his men were left in the meeting room.

Qin Chuan’s men cautiously asked him: “Head of the Qin family, what do we do now? If you can’t complete the task, then your mother and your sister…”

His father was dead and his mother and sister had been taken away.

The other party demanded Qin Chuan to deal with the Zhai family.

For this reason, Qin Chuan had no choice but to hurt Jian Yiling. He had to follow the other party’s instructions to frame Jian Yiling with his father’s death. This would provoke a fight with the Zhai family.

At the moment, Qin Chuan was under a great amount of pain and pressure.

He did not want to hurt Jian Yiling. He did not want to hurt innocent people.

And yet, he had to be the bad guy.

After all, he could not place his mother and sister’s life at risk.

He had to do what it took to ensure the safety of his mother and sister.

Qin Chuan closed his eyes in pain.

As he did so, Jian Yiling’s face appeared in his mind.

He knew that she probably hated him now. She hated him for not trusting her. She hated him for framing her.

As he thought about this, pain could be felt in Qin Chuan’s heart.

After a while, Qin Chuan opened his eyes again. Once again, his eyes were cold.

“Call the Qin family together for a family meeting. Without this company, I’m still the Head of the Qin family,” Qin Chuan ordered.

He had no way out of this.

Even if there was no chance of winning, he still had to push on.

He had to do this in order to receive regular videos of his mother and sister. He had to do this in order to keep them alive.

He had a family to protect.
