Chapter 582 Street Rat
"It seems you don't believe I can come up with five million!"
Qin Yu shrugged his shoulders and looked at an old man in the crowd below, asking, "Grandpa, how much were my bonus earnings at the end of the year?"
"Not much, you hold thirty percent of Four Seas Corporation's shares. The company's performance wasn't great this year, so the dividend is just around six billion!"
The Yan patriarch spoke calmly.
Today was the party celebrating the official appointment of his granddaughter's husband as the Dragon Gate Leader, and he, as a grandfather, had definitely received an invitation.
Originally, Yan Mingyu held sixty percent of Four Seas Corporation's shares, with the rest of the Yan family offspring sharing forty percent.
However, she knew that once she returned to the Ye Family, it would be difficult to go back to Four Seas Corporation, so before leaving, she had split the shares in two, with Qin Yu and her grandfather each holding thirty percent.
Qin Yu was aware of this, but had never taken it to heart.
Since Du Zhiheng was pressing him for a debt, it was time to reveal his other identity; otherwise, they would really think he embezzled the money.
"Oh, I forgot to mention, Qin Yu is my grandson-in-law!"
The Yan patriarch said this faintly and then sat down.
"Holy shit ... Qin Group Leader has such a status? He's actually the grandson-in-law of the old chairman of Four Seas Corporation!"
"With six billion in dividends this year, no wonder he can easily come up with five million!"
"I heard that the CEO of Four Seas Corporation is a stunning beauty. Qin Group Leader is truly a role model for us all, marrying a wealthy and beautiful wife and also being a key figure in Dragon Gate!"
"You guys forgot, his personal strength isn't weak either, to hold out for so long under Ye Qianzhong!"
The people below were again abuzz with discussion.
"You... so what if you have money? Pay up, your sister signed it, if you don't pay I can sue you and your sister!"
With gritted teeth and red eyes, Du Zhiheng spoke. Who cared, with the five million, even if he were cast out of the Du Family, his family could scrape by.
Otherwise, having offended Qin Yu and without money, he would find it hard to move an inch in Jinling.
"I can give you the money, consider it me paying for my sister's innocence and kindness. However, let's deal with things one by one, and settle accounts one after the other!"
Qin Yu narrowed his eyes and gave a nod towards Lu Wenrou below the stage.
"You... what do you mean?"
Du Zhiheng started to feel nervous as he detected something unusual in Qin Yu's expression.
"Let's all listen to this first!"
As Lu Wenrou pressed her phone, the grand hall's sound system quickly conveyed the arrogant voice of Du Zhiheng from last night in Qin Wei'er's room.
"Hahaha... Cinderella from the countryside, it's your good fortune that I fancy you. You still want to resist? Then go and sue me!"
"Why else would you be called a country bumpkin from the countryside? Do you understand the law? Do you understand contracts? The contract I had you sign is called a 'dual contract'. What you see is all rubbish, the key is the last page. Once you sign it, it has legal force."
"So what if I bully you, a powerless and impoverished family? Let me tell you, I'll play with you first and then deal with your big brother. Damn, what trash, competing in drinking with Kexin and causing her to be still in the hospital!"
"So that's how it is!"
The sly and cunning voice of Du Zhiheng led everyone in the hall to an epiphany.
"Turns out, they don't owe him any money at all, it truly was a dual contract!"
"The Du Family are really lowlifes. Before knowing Qin Group Leader's identity, they looked down on him, thinking he was powerless and trying to control his sister with a dual contract. Now they can't fight him and start to slander and smear!"
"Qin Group Leader, the Du Family are the scum of Jinling, you must deal with them properly!"
Now, the direction of the wind in the hall had shifted entirely in favor of Qin Yu.
"Du Zhiheng, you fabricated a Yin-Yang contract with a huge amount, which constitutes the crime of fraud. Additionally, you intended to bully my sister, which constitutes the crime of assault. Lastly, you repeatedly called me a 'mud dog,' slandering the Dragon Gate Leader, thus constituting the crime of defamation. You tell me, taking your two legs, isn't that reasonable?"
Qin Yu said coldly and then kicked out with lightning speed.
"Crack, crack...."
"Ahh...."
Du Zhiheng immediately screamed in agony, clutching his shortened legs and rolling on the ground: "My legs, they're broken, broken...."
"Damn, he got what he deserved. I've lived for several decades and have never seen someone so shameless!"
"If someone dared to bully my sister like that, I'd stab him to death!"
"Damn, waving a fake contract around and still having the audacity to demand money, truly shameless to the extreme!"
The people below all felt that Du Zhiheng got what he deserved from Qin Yu and didn't sympathize with him at all.
"Throw him out!"
Lu Wenrou clapped her hands, and immediately two men in black came up on stage and dragged the squealing Du Zhiheng away.
Seeing that their family had become a rat crossing the street, Du Yuan and his wife dared not say anything further and scurried out with their heads down.
Fearing that if they were any slower, Qin Yu would break their legs too.
The farce had thus officially come to an end. With the city elites and others coming up on stage to toast with Qin Yu, the atmosphere in the hall gradually rose to a high point.
At this time.
The Tang Family.
Tang Xuanwu had followed the events at the banquet through his phone. Normally, given the inauguration of the Dragon Gate Leader, the Tang Family would have definitely sought to curry favor.
However, he had boarded the grand ship that was Blissful Hall, and having been taught the Dual Cultivation mental method by Tang Xuanlong, he was considered a disciple of Blissful Hall and naturally looked down on a mere Dragon Gate Leader.
It was just that he hadn't expected the new leader to be Qin Yu, and also Mingyu's husband, which caused him some discomfort.
But on thinking about it, now that Mingyu had returned to the Ye Family, even if Qin Yu was the Dragon Gate Leader, he wouldn't be a match for the Ye Family. By the time his own Dual Cultivation mental method reached fruition and he broke through to the Pill Holding Realm, wouldn't Mingyu ultimately end up in his arms anyway?
And at the Ye Family.
In a secluded courtyard.
Mingyu, having watched a video recorded by her grandfather, saw Qin Yu surrounded by renowned individuals of Jinling and officially becoming the mysterious and esteemed Dragon Gate Leader. She felt quite comforted in her heart.
From a delivery man to a security guard at Four Seas Corporation, then to her own husband, and now to the Dragon Gate Leader.
Only she understood how difficult Qin Yu's journey had been, persisting through gritted teeth and stubborn determination.
"Qin Yu, you've done well!"
Mingyu's eyes reddened slightly, her small hand gently touching the screen of the phone as if she were caressing Qin Yu's resolute face.
"Miss, it's getting late; you should rest. Tomorrow, you still have your return ceremony to prepare for," a servant gently reminded from the doorway.
"I know!"
Mingyu took a few more looks at the phone before speaking softly.
The Ye Family had gone to great lengths to bring her back, and they were even holding a grand ceremony for her return – the motives behind this were definitely not simple!
