Chapter 257 Old Master Qi's Attitude Towards Jiang Youli
Chapter 257 Old Master Qi's Attitude Towards Jiang Youli
After watching the video, Grandpa Qi solemnly returned the phone to Cheng Jing.
After Cheng Jing retrieved her phone, she retreated behind Qi Huan.
Grandpa Qi didn't speak immediately, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Qi Feixue never expected that Qi Huan would do something like secretly filming videos!
She glanced nervously at her younger brother out of the corner of her eye. Seeing that he was just sitting there with a sullen face and didn't say anything, she pursed her lips and pondered how to explain to her grandfather.
Before she could finish speaking, Old Master Qi looked at Qi Shaoxiong.
"What do you and your brother have to say about the conversation in this video?"
"Grandpa, I..." Qi Feixue still couldn't think of a way to explain.
After all, those words were indeed spoken by her own mouth. You can't say that it was AI face-swapping and that the person speaking wasn't her, can you?
Wait a minute, maybe we can really get away with this!
She was about to use this reason when, to her surprise, Qi Shaoxiong calmly explained, "Grandpa, the words of someone like Qi Yue, who would even dare to harm his own brother, are not credible. Huan-ge may have some misunderstandings about me. I did not kidnap Qi Yue. Instead, Qi Yue asked me for help himself. He said that he had made such a big mistake that Huan-ge would not let him off the hook, so he came to me hoping that I would save his life."
"He said he could help me compete for the position of heir to the Qi family. Grandpa, you know, as your grandson, I can't be indifferent to the position of heir. Since the opportunity is in front of me, I naturally can't miss it. So I took Qi Yue away, planning that with Qi Yue's understanding of Huan Ge, I might be able to get some useful information that would help me defeat Huan Ge."
At this point, Qi Shaoxiong said firmly, "As for what Brother Huan said about me kidnapping Qi Yue to threaten him into going to Africa and then killing him, that's pure nonsense. No matter how much I want to become the heir of the Qi family, I would never be as ruthless as Qi Yue to the point of killing my own brothers."
Listening to Qi Shaoxiong's righteous words, Jiang Youli sneered inwardly. She had to admit that Qi Shaoxiong was indeed more intelligent than Qi Yue.
He did not directly deny taking Qi Yue away, but admitted his intention to seize the position of heir, and denied that he wanted to kill Qi Huan like Qi Yue.
These words only made Old Master Qi feel that his actions were understandable.
After all, the three-month deadline was indeed intended by Old Master Qi to see who was more capable of competing for the position of heir.
As long as no one actually dies, Old Master Qi will choose to turn a blind eye, since they are both his own grandsons.
After hearing her younger brother's words, Qi Feixue immediately chimed in, "Grandpa, those words in the video were just something I said in a fit of anger because Huan-ge kidnapped me and threatened my brother, and besides..."
She glared at Jiang Youli indignantly and said, "Brother Huan only filmed the parts that were in his favor. He didn't record what happened afterward because Jiang Youli poisoned me!"
Jiang Youli hadn't expected that Qi Huan had secretly recorded a video.
Now that this video exists, even if Old Master Qi finds out that she poisoned Qi Feixue, she will have ample reason to exonerate herself.
Thinking of this, Jiang Youli shrugged and said indifferently, "Fine, Qi Feixue, I admit I poisoned you, but you and Qi Shaoxiong have been secretly plotting against my fiancé Huanhuan, so what's wrong with me poisoning you?"
"You still dare to say there's a problem?" Qi Feixue shouted angrily. As a young lady of the Qi family, almost no one dared to provoke her outside, so she rarely lost her temper like this. Over the years, only Jiang Youli could make her so angry. "Don't you even think about it? Who do you think you are to dare to poison me!"
Jiang Youli wasn't angry. She calmly mocked, "Oh, so you ended up in the hands of someone like me who's nothing to you? Doesn't that just mean you're even more useless trash? Of course, I have no problem poisoning someone as useless as you."
Ignoring Qi Feixue's distorted expression, Jiang Youli turned to Qi Shaoxiong and said, "Judging from what you just said, although you kidnapped Qi Yue, you didn't actually intend to harm Huanhuan. So, poisoning your sister was also a means for my fiancé Huanhuan to compete for the heir. As long as she doesn't die, that's fine, isn't it?"
Qi Shaoxiong remained silent with a cold expression.
Qi Feixue finally couldn't hold back her anger and said, "Grandpa, you heard it too, Jiang Youli admitted to poisoning me, please hurry up and make her give me the antidote! Otherwise, she will trample on the reputation of our Qi family!"
"Hey, you're wrong. I only insulted your family's reputation, not Grandpa Qi's or Huanhuan's. You alone cannot represent the entire Qi family." Jiang Youli said without changing her expression. "Grandpa Qi, you've seen the video too. I poisoned Qi Feixue not out of personal motives, but to protect Huanhuan. The fact that I could poison Qi Feixue only shows how incompetent she and her brother are. Qi Shaoxiong is no match for Huanhuan at all."
The moment the word "incompetent" left his lips, Qi Shaoxiong's expression turned terrifying.
But Jiang Youli acted as if she hadn't seen it and continued, "Qi Shaoxiong originally wanted to use Qi Yue to deal with Huanhuan, but not only did he fail, he also ended up losing more than he gained, with his own sister becoming a hostage."
"Alright, Xiao Li is right. No matter what you did behind the scenes, if you fail, you must be prepared to bear the consequences." Grandpa Qi looked at Jiang Youli. "Xiao Li, I will punish the siblings for what they did to Huan'er, but I hope you can still cure my granddaughter's poison."
Jiang Youli nodded and said, "No problem. Since Grandpa Qi has personally asked, I can certainly detoxify Qi Feixue."
Upon hearing this, Qi Feixue's eyes lit up.
Hearing this, Jiang Xing, who hadn't dared to interrupt, suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. Could he finally be cured of the poison in his body?
Before Qi Feixue could be happy for long, Jiang Youli continued, "However..."
Qi Feixue couldn't wait any longer and said impatiently, "What do you mean, 'just'? Jiang Youli, this is my Qi family home. As the Qi family's granddaughter-in-law who hasn't even officially entered the family yet, you should behave yourself! Stop talking nonsense and give me the antidote right now!"
Jiang Youli leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed, and said with a hint of helplessness, "Grandpa Qi, Grandpa Qi, I agreed to detoxify her entirely because of you, but look at your granddaughter's attitude. It's not that I don't want to detoxify her, it's just that she doesn't admit her mistake."
She sighed, "If Qi Feixue remains like this, then I'm sorry I can't agree to Grandpa Qi's request to detoxify her."
Qi Feixue said incredulously, "What makes you think you still have room to negotiate...?"
"Enough, Xue'er, if you still want Xiao Li to be cured, then shut up!" Old Master Qi raised his voice to scold his granddaughter.
Qi Feixue was stunned, unable to believe that her grandfather was even more biased towards Jiang Youli.
None of his grandchildren ever dared to negotiate with their grandfather!
What makes Jiang Youli so capable?
Given the current status of the Qi family, Grandpa could have simply forced Jiang Youli to detoxify her; why would he need to ask for Jiang Youli's consent?
Grandpa Qi asked patiently, "Xiao Li, tell me, what are your conditions?"
