Qi Zhi’an looked at Qi Yongjiang and immediately stopped and asked politely, “Uncle Jiang, why are you here too?”

When Qi Yongjiang saw Xia Xibei, his face instantly sank.

He lifted his chin and hummed, “Can’t I be here?”

He had been contradicted by Xia Xibei several times before and was so livid!

In all his years in the Qi family, it was the first time that a junior dared to contradict him like that!

If it wasn’t for the others, he would have taught Xia Xibei a lesson, so that she would know what it meant to respect the elders!

Now that Xia Xibei had come over again, he was even more irritated.

“Uncle Jiang, what are you talking about? You can certainly be here,” Qi Zhi’an smiled good-naturedly. “You go ahead and get busy, we have a matter to take care of here too.”

“What’s the matter to be dealt with?” Qi Yongjiang lazily looked at Qi Zhi’an and Xia Xibei, his face mocking. “Maybe I can broaden my horizons as well?”

“Uncle Jiang…”

“That’s fine.”

Xia Xibei interrupted Qi Zhi’an’s words and flashed a smile at Qi Yongjiang.

Qi Yongjiang froze for a moment, then he almost jumped.

He could see that Xia Xibei was provoking him!

That look! That expression! That smile!

She simply did not take him seriously!

It was outrageous!

Moreover, since the elders were talking, what was she interfering for?!

As soon as Xia Xibei opened her mouth, Qi Zhi’an felt a headache begin.

This was Qi Yongjiang, the eldest of the family’s grandfather generation.

It was a very bad thing to get into a fight with an elder.

“What kind of att.i.tude is that? Where is your father? Get him over here! I’ll ask him how he teaches the children!” Qi Yongjiang pointed at Xia Xibei and reprimanded her.

“What’s wrong with my att.i.tude?” Xia Xibei looked innocent. “Didn’t you say you wanted to broaden your horizon? Then I said yes, so is there a problem? Besides, my father didn’t teach me for a day.”

These words stopped Qi Yongjiang, turning his face blue and white.

Qi Zhi’an couldn’t help but nod his head as well.

Xia Xibei’s words were fine! Didn’t she say yes? There was nothing wrong with it!

“You!”

Qi Yongjiang was so angered by Xia Xibei’s verbal dexterity that his chest hurt.

“Okay, then. I’ll broaden my horizons!” Qi Yongjiang coldly snorted. “I want to see how powerful you are!”

She was a junior who didn’t know anything, he would definitely give her a proper lesson!

Thinking of this, Qi Yongjiang’s face also looked better, and he had some more ideas.

“I also think I’m quite good,” Xia Xibei nodded her head in a non-humble way.

These words made Qi Yongjiang’s face even darker.

This girl was simply too much!

Qi Zhi’an had a headache and quickly stopped the two of them, “Okay, let’s deal with the business first.”

“What I’m talking about is not business?!” Qi Yongjiang was distracted by Qi Zhi’an, and his anger immediately vented towards him.

Qi Zhi’an’s face turned grim.

“Uncle Jiang,” Qi Zhi’an said in a cold voice. “If you’re okay, you can leave first.”

“I…”

Seeing Qi Zhi’an cold face, Qi Yongjiang did not dare to mess around. After all, the younger man was the future head of the family. Even if he was gentle, he was not to be bullied.

“Yes,” Xia Xibei nodded. “If you are not well, you can go back to rest first. After all, you’re advanced in years.”

Xia Xibei’s words made Qi Yongjiang glare in anger.

What was this girl saying?

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Qi Zhi’an could only stiffen his face and holler at them to stop.

“If you don’t want to find anything, then go back!” Qi Zhi’an glared at Xia Xibei.

Xia Xibei blinked, “Of course I want to find it!”

“Then go find it!”

Xia Xibei pursed her mouth and didn’t say anything else.
