Chapter 5548: Chapter 5548: Elder Brother

Qin Dingkang felt relieved in an instant, glad that his wife hadn’t come along, otherwise, he would have really lost face.

Hearing people say that Miss Ye came from a rural village, calculating and aiming to climb the social ladder, those words made him dare not even sit still, his face burning with the sting!

Pretending not to know that Qin Dingbo wanted to say more, Old Man Xia chuckled, "No need for a feast, as long as the family knows. The fact that Ye Jian is the granddaughter of the Fu family, aside from your old master and the old lady, and the Xia family being aware, not many others know."

"We also don’t need to formally reveal the girl’s identity in a grand manner, nor have we thought about letting everyone around us know. As long as you three brothers, Dinghai, Dingkang, Dingkang, are aware of it, there’s no need to mention it outside."

Eldest brother Qin Dinghai nodded first, "We all remember, please rest assured, Old Man."

"I’ll follow Old Man’s arrangements." Seeing Old Man Xia said so, Qin Dingkang naturally wouldn’t mention such a thing outside, as it was another family’s private affair.

"Old Man, you trust the unreliable Qin Dingbo so much, I definitely won’t talk about it everywhere!" Qin Dingbo, the least reliable one, promised, patting his chest.

Old Man Xia smiled and tapped him, "No, you are not unreliable, it’s just that you calculate too meticulously, you overthink, and that makes you somewhat unreliable."

Qin Dingbo, being a businessman, was best at seizing opportunities for advantage.

Having gained Old Man Xia’s trust, Qin Dingbo dared not speak any further about Qin Yi. The sole descendant of the Fu family, Qin Xiu, matched up well; his own illegitimate child wouldn’t even make it to the public eye.

Fortunately, his elder brother gave him a look, otherwise, he would have misspoken again.

Watching his obedient daughter leaning on Old Man Xia, not causing trouble and not focusing on fame or gain, Chief Engineer Fu felt both proud and heartbroken.

His daughter had endured so much suffering, so much hardship, yet still managed to become such an exemplary person; it truly wasn’t easy at all.

And as a father, he truly owed his daughter far too much.

Wiping the corners of his eyes, Chief Engineer Fu, now openly declaring Ye Jian’s identity, no longer kept it hidden. At this moment, he wished the whole world knew he had a wonderful daughter. "An Jiaxin also isn’t one to show off. If I didn’t tell you, she wouldn’t care at all; this child is much more composed than her father."

"You’ll understand how great my daughter is after meeting her more. Xiu, I heard that from now on you’ll be An Jiaxin’s brother; like Li Jinnian, will you take good care of An Jiaxin?"

Qin Dingkang was astonished. Could it be that his son was also willing?

"Yes, Uncle Sun, I don’t have a sister, and Grandpa Fu treats me as his own grandson. Ye Jian will naturally be my sister, and as her brother, I will protect her and not let anyone bully her," Qin Xiu expressed his stance, forcing himself to establish a sibling relationship with Ye Jian.

From then on, they were siblings, without crossing the boundaries.

Chief Engineer Fu had no idea that Qin Xiu harbored feelings for Ye Jian and was delighted to tell Qin Dingkang, "Now it’s great. An Jiaxin has got another brother."

After he finished speaking, they all laughed together. Old Man Xia glanced at Qin Xiu, whom he had watched grow up, and sighed subtly in his heart.

Xiu was good, but it wasn’t meant to be.

If he really had to choose between Xiu and Little Six, he actually leaned towards Little Six. That child would bring his granddaughter joy, safety, and happiness.
