Qin Mo stunned for a while, looking towards Jin Lan.

“Bang”

Jin Lan’s hand shivered, knocking over the plate in front of her. The plate fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

With this, she essentially confessed without being asked.

“Master, dinner is ready,” announced the butler who was carrying dishes out of the kitchen. Seeing the scene, he knew he had come out at a wrong time, so he quickly ordered the staff to put down the dishes and quickly went downstairs.

“Mo…”

“Alright, don’t say anything, let’s eat,” Qin Mo said nonchalantly, glancing at Jin Lan. The warning in his eyes was very obvious.

After thinking for a while, he added, “I only have a son, Ye’er, and similarly, only a daughter. They are all my flesh and blood. You can fight, but only I can discipline my child, Qin Mo’s daughter.”

Jin Lan remained silent, but her eyes were red.

Looking at her tearful appearance, it was difficult to tell whether she was truly heartbroken or just pretending, but she looked pitiful enough.

Her son was not around, and her own man refused to take her side. All she was left with was resentment.

“Let’s eat, don’t start a fight every time we sit down for dinner. It’s not even feeling like a home,” Qin Mo scolded coldly, then he looked at Qin Youxuan.

Qin Youxuan pouted, picked up her cutlery, and started eating.

She looked up at Qin Mo a few times during the meal, but her father seemed as if nothing had happened. Except for the residual anger on his face after scolding Jin Lan, nothing seemed amiss.

As if there was no problem at Qin Group, and he didn’t even know what Qin Youxuan had said in front of the reporters.

Everything was so unusual, too unusual!

“Gurgle Gurgle…”

Qin Youxuan hadn’t eaten properly for a day, she was starving. She picked up the soup bowl and drank it all at once.

After putting down the bowl, she smacked her lips satisfyingly.

“I’m full,” Qin Youxuan wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, placed it down elegantly, and glanced at Jin Lan who couldn’t eat anything.

Her appetite today was twice as big as usual, she even drank two bowls of soup.

“Once you’re full, come to the study room with me.” Qin Mo glanced at her and said indifferently. He got up first and headed to the study room.

Qin Youxuan blinked her beautiful cat-like eyes, roughly guessing what was going on. She slowly got up, glanced at Jin Lan who was furious but dared not speak, and smirked.

She pulled the chair elegantly, following Qin Mo’s steps.

Inside the study room.

A minimalist solid wood desk was placed in the most prominent position, and a large bookshelf occupied half of the study room.

The large floor-to-ceiling window offered a clear view of the city lights outside the window.

The curtains fluttered with the breeze…

Qin Mo stood with his hands on his back, in front of the window, silent for a while, leaving Qin Youxuan standing behind him.

Qin Youxuan was not in a hurry, she just stood quietly.

In a negotiation, whoever speaks first loses.

Only if one can keep calm, can they probe the bottom line of the other party. This principle was something she had learned when she was young, with Qin Mo teaching her on his lap.

In a blink of an eye, she was applying it to him.

How ironic.

“Did you cause the issue at Qin Group?”

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Mo’s deep voice faintly reached Qin Youxuan’s ears.

Qin Youxuan stiffened, straightening her back, “Yes, but it’s you, Dad, who taught me to fight for what I want.”
