The Man In Rage novel Chapter 162

"Also, that Mr. Liu Bin is not a bad catch either. The timing is right because he has just gotten a divorce. Earlier, your cousin said he got interested in you after seeing your photo. He said he does not mind your past."

"After you divorce Ye Fan, I will let you marry Mr. Liu Bin."

"He holds a high position within Hongqi Group. You will lose nothing by marrying him."

Master Qiu had already thought of everything.

Although Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan had done something so despicable, the Qius could still get away from the whole mess without suffering much damage to their reputation. They just had to shift all the blame onto Ye Fan and cut off all ties with him. If they did all that, their family would not be greatly affected if the scandal got exposed.

In any case, Hongqi Group had already signed the partnership contract and sent them the fund. That meant Ye Fan had already outlived his purpose.

Moreover, if Qiu Mu-Cheng married Mr. Liu Bin after her divorce, then the person-in-charge of the partnership at Hongqi Group would be the son-in-law of Qiushui Logistics. And when once that was the case, the Qius would not have to worry about Hongqi Group withdrawing their investments in the future.

It had to be said that Master Qiu was an experienced schemer indeed.

He had considered all possible angles as he made his plans.

Qiushui Logistics had now found a powerful backer in Hongqi Group, and also a way to remove themselves from the scandal involving Ye Fan. Even Qiu Mu-Ying had to inwardly admire her grandfather. As the saying goes, the older a person, the more experienced he is.

But that Liu Bin was a middle-aged man in his fifties. If Qiu Mu-Cheng married such a man, she would not be able to lift up her head high in future.

And Qiu Mu-Ying immediately felt happier when her thoughts reached this point.

"Mu-Cheng, look how nice grandfather is to you."

"Not only is he not calling to account your misdeeds, he has also found you a new home."

"Mr. Liu is quite a capable man. He is a project manager at Hongqi Group. And he is not too old either. He is only in his early fifties. You have got yourself a great bargain. That guy is a more than sufficient match for you. Quick, thank grandfather for his wise decision."

Qiu Mu-Ying laughed sarcastically. Even a fool could see that she was humiliating Qiu Mu-Cheng and her family.

After all, Qiu Lei himself was only in his forties. So that meant that not only had Liu Bin already been married, he was also older than Qiu Mu-Cheng's father. This pairing with Liu Bin was no better than Qiu Mu-Cheng's marriage to Ye Fan; it would only bring shame upon their family.

But they had no choice.

Perhaps, this was their daughter's fate.

Han Li and Qiu Lei sighed in resignation.

Master Qiu's authority within the family was absolute. Nobody could go against him. This was even more true for Qiu Lei and Han Li, who both had low status in the family.

Just then, Master Qiu tossed a document over to Qiu Mu-Cheng.

"This is the divorce agreement for you and Ye Fan. Sign it."

"I will send somebody to discuss this with Ye Fan.”

"After today, it is best if you two do not meet again."

"One more thing. Mu-Ying, you give Mr. Liu a call in a while. Tell him Mu-Cheng is already back and wants to have dinner with him."

"If he has no objection to this marriage, then tell him to marry Mu-Cheng as soon as possible."

Master Qiu spoke heavily in an authoritative tone that brooked no discussion. And not once did he ask Qiu Mu-Cheng for her opinion.

As if it was the most natural thing in the world for him to decide how Qiu Mu-Cheng should live her life.

But, at this moment, Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly burst out laughing. It was a laughter filled with self-deprecation.

"Mm?"

"What are you laughing at?"

Master Qiu frowned unhappily.

And Qiu Mu-Cheng replied: "Grandfather, don't you think you have gone overboard?" "I am not just talking about the way you treat me, but also the way you are treating Ye Fan."

"Ye Fan was the one who single-handedly got us the partnership contract with Hongqi Group. But he did not take credit for the work, nor did he boast about his achievement to anyone. He has only been quietly supporting me, and our family, from the background."

"And yet, you are abandoning him after making use of him. Now that the partnership is a done deal, you want to cut all ties with him. You only want to reap the benefits he has provided, and have no intention of thanking him or repaying the favor."

"Grandfather, is this the 'uprightness' you were talking about? You talked about being open and aboveboard earlier. Is this it?"

"Mu-Cheng, have you gone mad? Shut your mouth right now!" When they saw their daughter talking back to Master Qiu for Ye Fan's sake, both Han Li and Qiu Lei were frightened out of their wits. And they hurriedly urged her to stop talking at once.

However, the old man waved his hand and said: "You two don't interrupt. Let her talk. I want to find out just how many things she has left unsaid."

Master Qiu's expression was as sombre as a graveyard, and the Qius knew that he was on the verge of blowing his top.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng continued speaking, even as her eyes reddened with tears.

She was not going to shut up. She was going to speak up about all the bitterness and grievances she had gone through over the years.

"Grandfather, I am your granddaughter too. And no matter how useless Ye Fan is, he is still my husband. We are not asking you to favor us, but we are hoping that you will give us justice."
