Chapter 218: 218 Who dares!
Vice President Qin carried a load of misfortune home, initially thinking it was just a humiliation of a small vile person, but who knew the matter would escalate further? Had it even alarmed Yan Shixiu of Shuangshi?
Vice President Qin drove home anxiously and, after getting out of the car, was still pondering how to calm the situation. However, no sooner had he pushed open the front door than a housemaid approached him with an odd look on her face and said, “Mr. Qin, you’re back.”
“Has Meilin gone to sleep?” Vice President Qin handed his briefcase to the housemaid and asked.
“Not yet, the second Miss and the master are waiting for you in the living room.”
Fearing that he had forgotten the “generous gift” Yan had mentioned, Vice President Qin thought the old master was just there for a casual chat. Yet, as he entered the living room and saw photos of his mistresses and illegitimate child on the coffee table, he hurriedly went to tidy them up, asking, “What is all this? ”
“Stop hiding it, Dad has seen everything,” said Miss Li, the second daughter.
Old Master Li leaned on his cane, sitting on the sofa with a sullen face.
“When you first entered our family, I warned you there would be consequences if I ever discovered you disrespecting Meilin. I’ve had the butler pack your things. You can leave now.”
Upon hearing that Old Master Li was expelling him, Vice President Qin’s mind went blank, and he no longer cared about the photos, hurriedly arguing, “Dad, haven’t I been of some service to the Li family over the years? How can you cast me out just like that? Isn’t it inappropriate?”
“There’s nothing inappropriate; the Li family’s face has been lost because of you,” the old master retorted with a tap of his cane.
Seeing Old Master Li’s firm stance, Vice President Qin laughed out of frustration and declared boldly, “When I married Meilin, didn’t you know what she was like? I’ve worn this green hat for so many years, raising another man’s son. What more do you want from me?”
“Did I beg you to marry her? You coveted the Li family’s wealth all by yourself, wearing that green hat willingly. Who’s to blame?” Old Master Li scoffed, “You’ve been married for so many years and still don’t act like a high-standing son-in-law. You have nothing to show, still just a pauper embarrassing the Li family everywhere. Do you think I’ve tolerated you until today for no reason?
“Li Meilin, you better get the divorce papers ready by tomorrow, or you and this bumpkin will disappear from my sight. And don’t even dream of getting a dime from my inheritance,”
That was Old Master Li’s final ultimatum to his daughter. Before he left, he gave Vice President Qin one last piece of his mind, “You’ve been freeloading for most of your life, acting all high and mighty outside but without the backing of the Li family in Yancheng, let’s see who dares to protect you, let’s see who has the guts!”
With a swing of his cane, the old master instructed the butler to evict him: “Throw all his trash out. Bad luck!”
The second Miss Li sat on the sofa, completely silent.
Because she herself had been dependent on her family her entire life, possessing no assets of her own, and now that the old master had spoken, the marriage had to be dissolved.
Vice President Qin was pushed out of the iron gates by the Li family’s servants, his luggage thrown out as well.
“The Li family has gone too far!” Vice President Qin shouted in a hoarse voice, his heart burning with fury.
But what could he do? He had no options, forced to “savor” the pain of losing everything overnight.

This was Yan’s grand gift, but this gift was just the beginning. How could merely being disowned from the Li family be enough?
