Chapter 177: 177: She couldn’t accept this
“I have a thing with Qin Yi?” Zhan Yihe was about to explode. She turned to Zhan Yuheng and asked, “What is wrong with her? She’s the one who had a thing with Qin Yi!”
However, when Zhan Yihe turned and stared at her, there was a look that was icy cold, it sent a shiver down her spine.
“Not only did you lose the dividends in your family, you even lost your position as the deputy director of Zhongbo. Why are you so stupid? Causing discomfort for Jing Qian or helping me gain more benefits with your position — which one of these is more important? Are you trying to get kicked out of the Zhan family?”
Zhan Yihe felt wronged, arguing, “She’s the one who doesn’t know her place! Can’t you see that she has no sense of respect towards me? She even slapped me twice while you were here! I have already given in to her to this extent, so why are you still screaming at me instead of comforting me?!”
Zhan Yuheng continued giving Zhan Yihe the cold stare as three emotionless words came out of his mouth.
“You deserved it.”
Zhan Yihe remained quiet.
“Grandfather has already wholeheartedly given the entire Op Corporates to Zhan Lichuan, and she is his wife, which makes her the mistress of the Zhan family. Why should she respect a young miss from the second family? Perhaps you have overestimated your position?”
Zhan Yihe did not have any answers to his questions.
“That character was a present that grandfather gave to her. She was already harmed by the manager. You could have given it back to her with an additional cost. You would have gotten compensated by grandfather after that.
“If you didn’t think that you would be able to make the call, you could have brought her to me. But what did you do? Your position as the Artist Director had already been removed, but you still placed Qin Yi and Jing Lu in the show just to make life difficult for Jing Qian. You spent so much of Zhongbo’s money just to do this.
“Zhan Yihe, what is your brain made of?”
Zhan Yihe had no other choice but to remain on the spot while Zhan Yuhe screamed at her in rage.
She was already filled with remorse in regard to this incident.
She did not expect Zhan Lichuan to be so mean, removing her as the Deputy Director of Zhongbo Entertainment while Granduncle had already reduced their dividend.
However, when Zhan Lichuan made the announcement and told her that this decision would be made without consulting the board of directors, she realized that there was no going back. She immediately regretted what she had done.
Jing Qian was someone that she hated, as Jing Qian was the one who slapped her. However, when compared to the position of Deputy Director of Zhongbo Entertainment, she wouldn’t mind being slapped a hundred times.
“Big brother, please help me!”
Zhan Yihe reached out and grabbed onto Zhan Yuheng’s arms with both hands, begging him with her pitiful eyes.
“I am your right arm. Please help me talk to third brother about this.”
Zhan Yuheng got angry and pulled his arms away from Zhan Yihe, causing her to fall onto the ground.
“You are the one who caused these troubles, so you should bear the consequences. As for me, I have you as my right arm, but I can also have others in that position as well. Don’t think that you can do whatever you feel like just because you’re on my side. I can’t even do it myself. Who gave you the courage to challenge third brother?”
Zhan Yihe felt immensely regretful for everything that had happened.
Most of the money in their family would be from her grandfather. Some of it would be given to her father and some to her uncle. They would be the last to get their shares since they were the grandchildren of the Zhan family. There wouldn’t be much left when it got to her, which was why 90% of her income was from Zhongbo.
Zhongbo was not just Zhongbo Entertainment. It also includes Zhongbo Real Estate Development Group. One was in the entertainment industry and the other was in the real estate industry. She was only trying to disturb Jing Qian, but she lost everything because of it.
She couldn’t accept this!
Chapter 178: 178: The robot’s changed personality
“Then…. What should I do now, big brother? You know that I have nothing and no one else. I only have you. If you refuse to help me, I have no idea what to do now.”
With that said, Zhan Yihe cried in his arms with her head resting upon his chest.
Seeing how weak and soft she was, with no sign of a strong independent woman in her, Zhan Yuheng couldn’t help but turn soft-hearted.
He helped her stand, removing the tear stains that were on his suit as he replied to her question, “There’s nothing I can do for you now. At least not before I become the Chairman of Op Corporates.”
Zhan Yihe was speechless.
Did he really think that it would be so easy for him to remove Zhan Lichuan and make himself the Chairman of Op Corporates?
However, Zhan Yihe immediately comforted him instead.
“My father will definitely be on your side. The only person left is my grandfather. However, my grandfather is also on your side as well, since other than Zhan Lichuan, you’re the only grandson of the Zhan family. I will make sure to convince my grandfather to vote for you as the next Chairman during the next board meeting.”
When Zhan Yuheng heard what he wanted, a gentle smile appeared on his face.
“This is something that affects your future. Therefore, make sure that you do this quickly. The only thing that you can do now before I become the next chairman, would be to beg for forgiveness from Jing Qian. That way, she can help you convince third brother to get back your original position.”
With that said, Zhan Yuheng walked away on his long, lengthy legs.
Zhan Yihe was speechless. This was not what she had expected.
******
When Jing Qian entered the ward, there was an agile, flexible machine that was inside the room, the one that had scolded her before this.
Jing Qian’s eyes instantly glowed.
“XIAO CHUAN!!!”
Zhan Lichuan was confused.
Was she calling him? She would usually call him Ah Chuan.
“Are you calling me?”
Before Zhan Lichuan could react, the machine had already replied.
Seeing how this machine’s attitude towards her had become better than before, Jing Qian was even more in love with it.
Her eyes were shining like diamonds and before she could nod her head, the machine said to her, “My name is not Xiao Chuan. I am SW no. 1, a customized nursing robot. You can call me Number 1.”
“I thought that you disliked me when I met you before this. Why didn’t you scream at me this time?”
With that said, Jing Qian tilted her head to the side while staring at the robot. Her hair was tied into a tall ponytail and she looked extremely cute while looking at the robot.
Zhan Lichuan was at a loss for words.
Was she flirting with a robot just now?
Then, Zhan Lichuan thought of something, causing a bad feeling in him. Just when he was about to interrupt Number 1, the robot replied to Jing Qian with a ‘stern’ look on its face.
“That’s because he made some changes to my program, so my attitude towards you will be much better than before. From now on, you can talk to me whenever you want. I will not insult or say anything rude to you.”
Zhan Lichuan became speechless.
He couldn’t help but feel that there were still some changes to be made in this robot.
“Huh? HAHAHA!”
Jing Qian was humored by this robot, which was as honest as a monk.
This was the first time that Jing Qian was able to laugh out loud, but Zhan Lichuan’s eyes were filled with a deep, dark look while he bit his lips.
Jing Qian was standing right next to his bed and they were extremely close. He felt the entire bed shaking whenever she moved. The distance between them had already exceeded the acceptable distance for Zhan Lichuan with any woman in his life.
However, he could accept it, and surprisingly, he didn’t hate her for being so close to him.
Other than that, his eyes, which were bloodshot with a murderous look in them, turned soft in her presence.
This woman’s smile was seductively charming as if she was a soul-capturing vixen, and there was also a hint of imperceptible purity. This feeling…
It was like the purest creature that had ever existed ever since the existence of heaven and earth. She was a beauty that should not be tainted.
