Kapitel 61: Stand on My Side

As Li Qin Yao met her cousin's gaze, a frown appeared on her face and she could sense an upcoming headache.

Her grandfather, Li Ren Xin, married her grandmother and had four children. Three sons and one younger daughter. Li Qin Yao's father was the eldest. Her second uncle married her aunt, Zhao Wei and had Li Mu Bai and Li Mu Chen. Her third uncle married her aunt and had three children, Li Ming Han, and two twin daughters, Li Ye Chun and Li Ye Xia. Then, her youngest auntie married and had a son, Lin Nan Feng.

Among her grandfather's children, only Li Qin Yao's father, Li Xuan and her youngest auntie worked for QL Group. The second and third uncle chose a different path, but let their children work under the family's business. However, Li Qin Yao's father had passed away, and her youngest auntie chose to resign to follow after her husband who worked in C Country as a diplomat.

Thus, only the younger generation of Li's family was left to inherit QL Group.

In the earlier years, Li Qin Yao, Li Mu Bai, Li Ming Han, and Li Ye Xia chose to work under QL Group, while the other cousin chose a different career. The cousins competed with the position as the company's president as their aim. Li Ye Xia was the first to quit.

Then, Li Qin Yao resigned after the scandal, and in the end, only Li Mu Bai and Li Ming Han were the two left to manage the company. Because of Li Mu Bai's astounding performance, he was later chosen as the president, while Li Ming Han was his vice.

Although many of her cousins no longer worked under QL Group, most of them had their share in the company. And just like Li Qin Yao, most of them chose not to attend the shareholder meeting, unless the company needs their presence and vote or if something big happened in the company.

At first glance, Li Ming Han appeared as a sunny boy. He always had that cheery smile on his face and most of the employees favored him a lot. But Li Qin Yao knew that Li Ming Han was not as easy as he seemed to be. Or else, he would not be able to last that long in QL Group.

Li Qin Yao forced a smile on her face. "Yes. We haven't seen each other for a while. I didn't see you at Grandfather's birthday banquet."

Li Ming Han laughed. "Right. I went outstation to discuss a few things. But, Cousin Sister, let's not change the topic. How come you're here to attend the shareholder meeting this time?"

Li Qin Yao supported her head with her right hand and looked at her cousin lazily. "Why do you bother asking? It's exactly as what you have heard."

"What do you mean?" the smile on Li Ming Han's face did not fade away although he can see that Li Qin Yao was too lazy to speak to him.

"I heard that there's a rumor among QL's employee," Li Qin Yao said. "Didn't everyone keep saying that grandfather is planning to bring me back to QL Groups?"

"I only heard a rumor that one of the shareholders will join in the managerial position. However, didn't you just call it a rumor? Since it was only a rumor, how can I believe in those words unless if I check them with you?"

Hearing Li Ming Hao's words, Li Qin Yao started to wonder if it was a genetic thing for them to talk in a roundabout way. Li Qin Yao noticed that sometimes, even she would use the same way to talk to her grandfather or Li Mu Bai.

"Alright. I'm getting tired of this," Li Qin Yao sat up straight. "Come. Tell me what do you want from me?"

Li Ming Han let out a chuckle. "Cousin Sister, you have grown older? How can you get tired in just a couple minutes?"

Li Qin Yao narrowed her eyes. "Well if you don't want to say it, then, let's pretend that this conversation doesn't happen."

"Hey, hey," Li Ming Han grabbed at her wrist when she started to stand up from her seat. "Wait a minute. I'll say it." He let out a breath as Li Qin Yao returned to sit. "Women. They get sensitive once we mentioned about getting old," Li Ming Han muttered to himself.

"Li Ming Han, I am not deaf."

"Haha," Li Ming Han turned with a wide smile on his face. "Cousin Sister, don't get angry. I still have an important matter to discuss with you. Well, you do know that this time, we were going to reveal upcoming projects to the shareholders and let them decide whether the project will pass or not, right?"

"Yes?" Li Qin Yao decided to play along and nodded.

Li Ming Han rubbed both hands together. "This time, I am proposing a development project on the west side of the city. I was hoping that you could stand on my side during the voting session."

"West side? You mean, the old residential area?"

Although Li Qin Yao had left QL Group and Capital City for a while, it doesn't mean that she was ignorant of the development project in the city. She had heard the news that the government was planning to redevelop the area five years ago. But, due to some issues with the residence and developers, the project was put on hold, and then, forgotten.

Li Ming Han nodded and stared at her with expectant eyes. "Will you help me?"

"Well," Li Qin Yao made a long pause as if she was weighing her decision. Li Qin Yao knew that the project proposed by Li Ming Han will naturally be profitable. However, since he came to ask for her support, he must be facing some obstacles with the shareholders as well. "I can. However, I have a condition."

The smile on Li Ming Han's face froze momentarily. "What condition?"

"Of course, you have to do the same for me," Li Qin Yao said. "During this meeting, my team and I will be revealing a project. During the voting session, of course, you will have to stand on my side."

Li Ming Han stared at his cousin with a dumbfounded expression. It took him a while to respond. "You and your team?" He toned down his voice and looked around to see if anyone was listening to their conversation. "Cousin Sister? When did you start to work on a project? Didn't you quit two years ago? When did you return to work for the company?"

"I haven't returned. But this thing, I will explain them later during the meeting," Li Qin Yao grinned. "So? What do you say?"
