Chapter 739: You Don’t Deserve to Burn Incense!
Tang Young Master…
Method Yu slightly narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, a deathly silence surrounded them.
Qin Bin was kneeling, his head touching the ground, facing the memorial hall.
Black-red blood continuously flowed from the left side of his chest.
Many people, including Qin Changlong, turned away, unable to bear the sight.
Method Yu glanced at Qin Bin, his eyes indifferent.
To him, Qin Bin was a dead man walking.
No matter what reasons he had, Qin Bin had betrayed the Qin family and done many things that harmed their interests.
Such traitors, no matter where they were, once caught, had only one path to follow – death.
“Come find me after you’ve handled things here. I need to tell you some information,” Method Yu said as he walked to Qin Yimo’s side.
“Alright,” Qin Yimo nodded slightly.
For the Qin family, this night was destined to be sleepless.
After dealing with Qin Bin’s body, all members of the Qin family, both direct and collateral lines, knelt before the memorial hall.
Soon, midnight passed.
Qin Yimo officially became the head of the Qin family.
After the incident with Qin Bin, both Qin Changlong and Qin Jianjun seemed significantly affected emotionally and raised no further objections to this arrangement.
By the time everything was temporarily settled, it was already the early hours of the morning, 3 AM.
Method Yu sat on the sofa on the first floor of the small building where Qin Wudao had stayed today, resting with his eyes closed.
Qin Yimo came to him with a food container in hand.
“How did you know I was hungry?”
Method Yu opened his eyes, immediately noticing the food container in Qin Yimo’s hand, and took it.
“It’s not just for you. I haven’t eaten either,” Qin Yimo said.
Method Yu didn’t care about that. He opened the container to find some home-cooked dishes and began eating heartily.
Although Qin Yimo hadn’t eaten, she wasn’t actually hungry, so she sat nearby watching Method Yu eat.
Her eyes were slightly red, her mood low, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
For her, becoming the family head wasn’t a happy occasion but a responsibility placed on her shoulders.
She clearly understood how important the Qin family was to her grandfather.
Therefore, she absolutely could not fail her grandfather’s expectations and must help the Qin family overcome the current crisis.
After eating for quite some time, Method Yu finally looked up and asked, “Among your Qin family’s competitors, is there one called the Tang family?”
“The Tang family? They’re our biggest partners,” Qin Yimo frowned.
“Partners? Now that’s interesting,” Method Yu said.
“What do you know?” Qin Yimo asked.
Method Yu took a sip of soup and calmly explained what he had learned.
After hearing Method Yu’s explanation, Qin Yimo’s expression became extremely grim.
Tang Young Master…
According to Method Yu’s description, this person was very likely the Tang family’s eldest son, Tang Ming.
Qin Bin was turned by Tang Ming!?
This sounded too absurd!
Because these two people – one a core member of the Qin family and the other the eldest son of the Qin family’s biggest partner…
The two of them joining forces to devour the entire Qin family…
For Qin Yimo, just thinking about it made her spine chill.
If Method Yu hadn’t told her, she probably wouldn’t have believed it.
“That’s all I know. You’ll have to investigate the rest yourself,” Method Yu said.
Qin Yimo couldn’t accept this information right away and rubbed her temples.
“Is there any event tomorrow?” Method Yu asked.
“…Tomorrow, many people will come to pay their respects. Tang Ming should come too,” Qin Yimo looked up and said.
“That’s perfect then. Meeting him face to face will allow us to probe what he’s trying to do,” Method Yu raised an eyebrow and said.
“Yes,” Qin Yimo nodded again.
“In that case, I’ll stay one more day,” Method Yu said.
Qin Yimo stood up, bowed to Method Yu, and said, “Thank you, Mr. Method.”
“We’re so familiar with each other now, there’s no need for such formalities, right? It’s not like your usual style,” Method Yu smiled.
Qin Yimo raised her head and said, “This time is different.”
She knew clearly that if Method Yu hadn’t come, today she and the Qin family would have fallen into an irredeemable situation.
“Alright, I need to rest now. You can continue with your business,” Method Yu leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes again.
Qin Yimo packed up the food container and left the house.
Walking to the courtyard of the main building, she met Lawyer Chen.
“Miss Qin, I must leave now. I almost forgot, there’s still an item I need to give you,” Lawyer Chen said.
“What item?” Qin Yimo asked.
“A set of keys, and a letter that Old Mr. Qin left for you.” Lawyer Chen placed an envelope and a set of keys in Qin Yimo’s hand.
The keys were for opening various rooms in the Qin household, an essential item for the family head and also a symbol.
But Qin Yimo’s attention was entirely on the letter.
She wasn’t present when Qin Wudao passed away.
And this letter surely contained all the words and admonitions that Qin Wudao wanted to tell her.
Even before taking out the letter, Qin Yimo felt her eyes growing hot.
“Good, thank you, Lawyer Chen,” Qin Yimo said as she accepted the two items.
“No need,” Lawyer Chen nodded and walked away.
Qin Yimo took the envelope to a secluded corner where no one was around, opened it, and began reading.
The contents of the envelope were written by Qin Wudao himself; Qin Yimo could recognize his handwriting.
After reading for just a short while, Qin Yimo’s eyes were filled with tears. She covered her mouth, trying her best not to make a sound.
…
The next afternoon, the Qin family mansion welcomed a large group of people who came to pay their respects.
These people came from various major families or were independent businessmen.
Most of them had received help from Qin Wudao before and came with sincere condolences.
A small portion, however, were just going through the motions.
Of course, this happens in every family, and everyone understood this tacitly.
In front of the memorial hall, people continuously came forward to offer incense and bow.
The Qin family members, dressed in mourning clothes, stood on both sides in silence.
Qin Yimo, as the succeeding family head, stood at the very front.
Having suffered an attack yesterday and gone without rest for a long time, her appearance was quite haggard.
Method Yu stood at the back of the crowd, silently observing each person who came to pay respects.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.
Soon, a man in a suit walked forward.
He didn’t go to the memorial hall to offer incense and bow, but instead walked directly to Qin Yimo.
“Miss Qin, it’s been a while. You’re still as beautiful and charming as ever,” the man said with a smile.
“Mr. Tang, if you want to offer incense, please go ahead. I’m not in the mood to chat with you right now,” Qin Yimo looked at Tang Ming before her, her eyes full of coldness.
“Don’t be like that. Since I’m here, of course I’ll offer incense! But I’d like to chat with you first,” Tang Ming smiled.
At this point, Tang Ming’s behavior had already attracted many people’s attention.
Many knew that Tang Ming had feelings for Qin Yimo.
But flirting should be done in the appropriate setting!
Today was a funeral at the Qin family, and Tang Ming’s behavior clearly showed disrespect to the Qin family and to Qin Wudao!
The Qin family members standing on both sides all showed displeasure on their faces.
As for others, although they also felt Tang Ming was wrong, they dared not show too much reaction.
After all, Tang Ming was the eldest son of the Tang family, and no one present could afford to offend him.
“Miss Qin, I heard you were attacked yesterday? Are you alright?” Tang Ming asked with a smile.
Qin Yimo’s expression changed slightly as she looked at Tang Ming.
“Sigh, I actually really respected Old Mr. Qin. He left at such an inopportune time. Now the Qin family is going through difficult times, and with him gone, the family has lost its backbone and will only face more difficulties,” Tang Ming shook his head and sighed with fake sincerity.
Hearing these words, Qin Yimo could no longer contain her anger.
Tang Ming was provoking her!
His meaning was very clear.
With Qin Wudao gone, he no longer needed to respect the Qin family!
That’s why he dared to come directly to the Qin family’s memorial hall today to provoke them!
Tang Ming looked at Qin Yimo, his eyes playful.
In fact, he was also angry.
The plan he had schemed for so long, a plan he thought was 100% foolproof, had actually failed!
This was something he never expected.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, to the point where he ignored the opposition of his family elders and came directly to the Qin family, wanting to show them who was boss.
After all, Qin Wudao was already dead, and their Tang family no longer needed to be cautious about anything. They could even declare their true intentions today!
Their Tang family wanted to devour the Qin family!
“Sigh, I should go offer incense to Old Mr. Qin,” Tang Ming said as he leisurely walked forward.
But he had barely taken two steps when someone pressed down on his shoulder.
“You are not worthy to offer him incense,” Method Yu said coldly, his right hand pressing on Tang Ming’s shoulder.
