Chapter 603 - 584: Everyone Here Has Their Own Agenda
A half-hour later, Lou Xi emerged from the ward. She noticed that beyond the concern for the old man, there was also curiosity about what he had said to her.
Sure enough, Qin Rui Li was the first to lose patience and approached Lou Xi, asking, "So, what did the old man say to you?"
Not only Qin Rui Li, but everyone else also gazed at Lou Xi with ulterior motives.
"What do you think a gravely ill grandfather would say to me at this time?" Lou Xi retorted, "Shouldn’t Aunt be more concerned about Grandpa’s health?"
Qin Rui Li’s face flushed red at Lou Xi’s words. This girl has a sharp tongue.
Seeing Qin Rui Li fall silent, Lou Xi addressed everyone, "Grandpa said he doesn’t know how much longer he can hold on, so he’s temporarily handing over the Qin Family matters to Mo Bai. If he really can’t hold on and passes away, the lawyer will announce his will."
What Lou Xi said was reasonable, and no one had any objections.
But clearly, Lou Xi hadn’t finished speaking.
"Grandpa also said that from now on, the Qin Family’s household affairs will be managed by me, in place of Grandma."
When Lou Xi finished speaking, an eerie atmosphere descended outside the ward. This implied that the future of the Qin Family would fall into the hands of Qin Mobai and Lou Xi!
Everyone present had their own thoughts.
"Grandpa needs rest, so you should all go back. If there’s any news, I’ll inform you." Lou Xi concluded with this statement.
No matter how dissatisfied the Qin Family was with this result, since it was the old man’s instruction, they had no choice but to comply, each returning to their own home.
After everyone outside the ward left, and only Lou Xi and Qin Ruiqian remained, Lou Xi’s earlier assertiveness disappeared in an instant, and she let out a long breath, feeling completely exhausted.
Turning around, Lou Xi looked at Qin Ruiqian and said, "Dad, I need to find Mo Bai urgently. Please keep an eye on Grandpa, and if it’s not someone Grandpa wants to see, don’t let them in!"
Qin Ruiqian gave Lou Xi a deep look and asked, "Did the old man tell you something else?"
Lou Xi’s expression stiffened, as if nothing could be hidden from Qin Ruiqian.
"Dad, you’re overthinking it. Grandpa only talked about the arrangements for the Qin Family and the Qin Corporation. I want to find Mo Bai because I’m worried about him and want to stay by his side." Lou Xi’s explanation seemed reasonable enough.
"If there’s anything, call me." Qin Ruiqian said with a hint of disbelief.
Lou Xi nodded and quickly left the hospital.
While still in the ward, she contacted Shen Youran to arrange a helicopter, as she needed to see Qin Mo Bai immediately!
Two hours later, the helicopter landed in Qing City, a somewhat underdeveloped city. The Qin Corporation initially built the factory here due to the cheaper labor force.
She had just messaged Qin Mobai, and he said he was still negotiating with the families. The families of the deceased demanded compensation of four million, while other injured parties’ families also sought compensations ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions.
This matter infuriated Lou Xi, as they were practically bullying the Qin Family into giving more money during this opportunity!
However, Lou Xi hadn’t told Qin Mobai that she was on her way to see him!
The negotiation was set to take place on an open-air square outside the factory. When Lou Xi hurried over, she saw a large crowd gathered there.
With some effort, she managed to squeeze through and saw Qin Mobai sitting at the negotiation table, looking handsome and impressive.
But she also noticed someone acting suspiciously among the crowd!
