55: Chapter 55 This old man is actually quite useful.
Qin Huanhuan lifted her face, her beautiful eyes filled with a painful expression of self-mockery.
She stared at Qin Ge and sneered, "Qin Ge, you think too lowly of me, Qin Huanhuan!"
"Do you think that after discovering the truth, I would try every possible way to cover it up?"
"Now that the truth is out, what face do I, Qin Huanhuan, have left to see Father again?"
"And what qualification do I have to revitalize the Qin Family?"
"What is the meaning of me living in this world?"
There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart.
Just thinking about these things made Qin Huanhuan feel ashamed.
She would rather die than be threatened by Qin Ge!
For her now, death could only be a release.
The Qin Family that raised her had absolutely nothing to do with her.
Her mother had even cuckolded Qin Hai.
Not only her, but even Qin Zou had no Bloodline connection to the Qin Family.
The three of them had deceived Qin Hai so miserably.
What face did she have left to face 'Father' again, or to face everyone in the Qin Family?
Qin Ge was not surprised. He glanced sideways at the despondent Qin Huanhuan and said playfully, "If you want to die, I suppose I can't stop you."
"But have you thought about what will happen to Liu Mei and Qin Zou if you die?"
"No matter what, they are your mother and brother, aren't they?"
"When Qin Hai finds out the truth, what kind of brutal retaliation will Liu Mei and Qin Zou face?"
Hilarious.
If Qin Huanhuan had died so easily, he would have killed her back at the Qin Family restaurant.
Don't forget, Qin Huanhuan is one of Chen Yuan's Seven Martial Sisters.
These Seven Martial Sisters are closely knit, and their relationship is off the charts.
They are all potential Breakthrough points.
She is still very useful alive; how could he let her seek her own death?
Qin Huanhuan closed her eyes in grief, "Every cause has its effect; all of this is what they brought upon themselves."
Impressive!
Such a mindset—truly worthy of an upright and unyielding Daughter of Destiny.
Qin Ge couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
So she has no intention of caring whether Liu Mei and Qin Zou live or die?
She assumes they deserve to die?
Qin Ge added, "If you commit suicide now, no matter where you do it, Chen Yuan will definitely use your death to incite your Senior Sisters from your sect, or even your Master, to come and kill me."
"Since Qin Hai was kept in the dark for so long, you should be able to guess the power I have behind me. When a clash breaks out, what will happen if your entire sect is wiped out?"
"Liu Mei and Qin Zou may deserve to die, but do the Senior Sisters of your sect and the Master who taught you martial arts deserve to die as well?"
Qin Huanhuan's breath hitched.
A look of horror appeared in her beautiful eyes.
Qin Ge was right!
Chen Yuan had previously wanted to recruit her to kill Qin Ge together.
If she were to commit suicide and Chen Yuan found out, given his personality, he would definitely do something like that.
Never mind causing her sect to be wiped out; even if just one Senior Sister died because of her, she would not be able to rest in peace.
"In that case, I'll just go and kill Chen Yuan!"
Qin Huanhuan turned around, intending to kill Chen Yuan.
She planned to take Chen Yuan's corpse and commit suicide in public at her sect!
"I give up!"
Qin Ge rubbed his temples with a headache.
What on earth is inside Qin Huanhuan's brain?
She's already determined to die; why is she still being so stubborn before she dies?
How petty!
Qin Ge sighed. He ultimately decided to use the old guy as an excuse and said to Qin Huanhuan with dissatisfaction:
"Before you die, pay off the debt that the three of you owe the Qin Family first."
Qin Huanhuan stopped in her tracks. She turned back and agreed profoundly, "You make a valid point. Name a figure; I will go and seize it. When the turmoil subsides, you can pass it on to... Father!"
She owed Father too much; if she could repay some of it before she died, that would be for the best.
And while she was at it, she could kill a few heinous rich people!
Qin Ge shook his head. "The debt I'm talking about isn't the expenses you've incurred over the years. The entire Yunhai City knows that Qin Hai raised two children, yet now, two of them were born from Liu Mei's infidelity."
"How are outsiders supposed to view Qin Hai? And how are they supposed to view the Qin Family?"
"The three of you owe the Qin Family two descendants; that is indisputable, isn't it?"
"Don't you intend to pay it back?"
Qin Huanhuan said angrily, "How is that supposed to be repaid!?"
She had heard of repaying debts, but never of repaying descendants.
Qin Ge shrugged indifferently. "Give birth to two descendants for the Qin Family. There's no counting on Liu Mei and Qin Hai anymore."
He stared straight at Qin Huanhuan's waist-length short skirt. "However, considering you've spent so many years in the Qin Family, I can help you with that."
Qin Huanhuan was so ashamed and angry that she nearly shattered her teeth. "Qin Ge, how can you be so shameless?"
"It's you who's shameless, isn't it?" Qin Ge moved his gaze from her short skirt and studied Qin Huanhuan's beautiful eyes, which were filled with shame and indignation. "It's a mutually beneficial arrangement. Are you sure you don't want my help?"
"You also know that my relationship with Qin Hai has long since been severed."
"Even if you die, I wouldn't take over the foundation that Qin Hai spent his entire life building."
"And Qin Hai is now incapable of having more children."
"Are you sure you want to watch the father you respect—who exhausted his efforts to raise you for over twenty years—see the life's work he built with his own hands go down the drain in the end?"
"Can you bear to let Qin Hai, who has spent his entire life toiling, end up like a lonely, widowed old man?!"
A smile played on Qin Ge's lips, his eyes glinting with a lecherous intent.
He didn't offer any further persuasion.
He gave Qin Huanhuan time to think.
Didn't Qin Huanhuan respect Qin Hai? Didn't she want to repay him?
He wanted to see whether Qin Huanhuan's desire to die was stronger, or if her urge to repay Qin Hai was more intense!
*Huu—*
Stunned in place, Qin Huanhuan exhaled a long breath, and her rapid breathing gradually steadied.
That's right!
She wasn't even afraid of death.
Why, then, was she rejecting Qin Ge so much?
She and Qin Ge had no Bloodline connection.
Furthermore, Qin Ge's appearance was undeniably, flawlessly handsome.
At the very least, she could just pretend she'd been bitten by a dog a few times.
The most important thing was that she could give birth to the Qin Family's descendants.
She could carry on Father's Bloodline.
When Father grew old and frail, she dared not hope for anything from Qin Ge, with whom relations had already been severed.
But her children—Father's grandchildren—would certainly be able to provide for him.
Father had sacrificed so much for her.
Yet in the end, he might die in loneliness.
Could she, Qin Huanhuan, not even endure this bit of humiliation?
"Just pretend I was bitten by a dog."
Qin Huanhuan mentally conditioned herself countless times, then stepped forward with a calm expression.
...
"Qin Ge, don't push me too far!"
No matter how hard Qin Huanhuan tried to suppress her emotions, at this moment, she couldn't hold back anymore.
The System notification sound rang out in her mind,
"Ding! The Daughter of Destiny, Qin Huanhuan, has developed feelings of shame, indignation, regret, fear, and hatred toward the Host. The Host is rewarded with 5000 villain points!"
