Chapter 12 Kicked Out Of The Zhu Family
- Zhu Linlin returned to the Zhu residence with a cheerful smile. After all, she had won the bid of all pharmaceutical projects under Xuanyuan Group. Her company was definitely going to prosper.
- But what awaited her at home were all members of the Zhu family, and they did not look particularly kind.
- Except for grandpa Zhu Sandao who was still in the hospital, everyone in the Zhu family had gathered around, as if they were calling for an intervention.
- Zhu Linlin stepped in and saw everyone was glowering.
- “Zhu Linlin! Are you proud of yourself for the things you've done?!”
- Zhu Ming opened his eyes wide and his neck turned red from the anger that had surged through him.
- Zhu Linlin frowned, “What have I done?”
- “What have you done? You were seen together with Qin Jun at the ceremony. Now the three prominent families had ordered all the other families to alienate us!”
- “They've terminated all the contracts under the Zhu Group, do you know how much loss we suffered?”
- “Zhu Linlin, you're a disappointment. I've warned you many times, to stay away from him, but you did not listen. Now you've finally got our family into trouble!”
- “What are we going to do now? Tell us!”
- Zhu Linlin frowned. She did not expect the three prominent families to take their anger out on the Zhu family.
- Zhu family's aunt exploded with rage after seeing Qin Jun.
- “This Qin fellow! He had the guts to attack the young master of the Qi family, they're going to kill him! Zhu Linlin, if you still want to be a part of this family, stay away from him! Otherwise, no one will go to collect your body when you die!”
- Zhu Yong could no longer tolerate how the entire family had ganged up to reprimand his daughter.
- He frowned, “What are you all doing? It has already happened, what's the point of saying all this?”
- Zhu Ming let out a cold snort, “You two have brought so much loss to the family, and now you won't allow us to speak?”
- Zhu Yong said, “If the three prominent families insist on doing so, there's nothing we can do. We can only think of a solution to salvage the situation.”
- Zhu Ming said, “Salvage the situation? Easy for you to say. Now the entire Donghai refuses to work with us. What is there to salvage?”
- Suddenly, the Zhu family fell silent.
- The Zhu family was actually doing quite well in recent years, but the appearance of Qin Jun had caused them to become the public enemy. What a jinx!
- Zhu Linlin did not expect things to turn out this way.
- “Then what's your plan, uncle?”
- Zhu Ming snorted coldly, “I heard you won the bid with 4.9 billion? That's because Zhu Group was not in the race. And it was by our grace that you managed to secure those projects.”
- “Now we can only work with Meng's Xuanyuan Group. Here's a chance for you to make amends – you will give us the projects.”
- Zhu Linlin's face turned grim. Her uncle had said all those words just to get his hands on the projects from Xuanyuan Group.
- How shameless can this person be, how could he even say something like that?
- Zhu Linlin won the bid, but what had that got to do with the Zhu Group? 'By the grace of the Zhu family'? Aren't they ashamed that they were thrown out by the guards?
- The Xuanyuan Group's projects would guarantee the future of Zhu Linlin's company, and of course, she would not simply hand it over on a platter.
- “Uncle, don't even try. I will not give my projects from the Xuanyuan Group to anyone.”
- Zhu Ming was unhappy with her response, “Good. Very well, the both of you. If that's the case, we don't have to play nice anymore. I shall represent the Zhu family now, and hereby kick Zhu Yong and Zhu Linlin out of the family!”
- “WHAT!”
- Zhu Yong's face changed, “Who gave you the authority to do so?!”
- Zhu Ming said, “Hmph, who are you to question me? I'm the eldest, so legitimately I'm the father figure of the family! Now that dad is still sick, I call the shots now, and I have every right to decide on family matters like this!”
- “If you do not hand over Xuanyuan Group's projects, you can see yourself out!”
- “You......”
- They did not expect Zhu Ming to go this far to threaten them to hand over the projects.
- Zhu Linlin's face turned pale. Grandpa's not around and he just does things his way, this is too much!
- Qin Jun let out a cold laugh, “Linlin, what's the point of staying in this kind of family?”
- “If this is what they want, we should just go.”
- Before leaving, Qin Jun turned around and looked at the Zhu family.
- “Getting rid of them is easy, but if one day you wish for them to come back, I'll make all of you kneel down and beg for it.”
- Zhu Ming snorted, “Dream on! Once you stepped out of the door, don't ever think of coming back again!”
- Qin Jun gave them a baffling smile, and left the residence with the father and daughter.
- “Linlin, don't worry. They would beg for you to go back in a couple of days.”
- Zhu Linlin put on a bitter smile. How could it be easy for someone who was kicked out to return to the family?
- Because of Qin Jun, the Zhu family was alienated by the others, and even when grandpa returns, there's nothing much he could do.
- Jun must be trying his best to console me, that's all.
- The Zhu family had become Donghai's arch enemy, and had lost their foothold. Zhu Ming kicking them out of the family was also a way to severe ties with them, so that they would not get into more trouble.
- Zhu Linlin was dismayed. She tried her best to fight for the Zhu family. Even on business, she would always put the Zhu Group's interest first before her little company.
- Despite all that, she was still kicked out of the family.
- Zhu Linlin felt dejected and lost.
- Zhu Yong patted Qin Jun's shoulder, and said, “Jun, don't worry. Uncle Zhu is around. I can carry out some trades and take care of you and Linlin.”
- Though all these dramas started with Qin Jun, Zhu Yong did not blame him at all. He even treated him as his own child.
- Qin Jun was very touched.
- “Uncle Zhu, let me take care of this.”
- Zhu Yong and Zhu Linlin smiled hesitantly but did not actually take his words for it.
- Qin Jun's intention is good but I'm afraid he doesn't have the ability to make things right.
- ......
- Upon returning to the Qin residence, he saw the three dog chains that were hanging in the courtyard, and remembered something.
- Three days had passed and the Tang family had not come to apologize to Aunt Feng.
- Looks like they did not take my warning to heart.
- Qin Jun asked, “Aunt Feng, the Tangs didn't come, did they?”
- Aunt Feng nodded, “Young master...... shall we just forget about it?”
- Qin Jun wanted the entire Tang family to kneel down and apologize to Aunt Feng, but no one would entertain this kind of nonsense. Moreover, Aunt Feng did not care about for these formalities. To her, the most important thing was that the young master had returned safely.
- But Qin Jun did not share her thoughts. The Tangs must kneel down and apologize to her.
- An eye for an eye. The Tang family treated and tortured Aunt Feng like a dog, they should get a taste of their own medicine. Qin Jun would not let it slide easily.
- “Aunt Feng, you're coming with me to the Tangs.”
- Aunt Feng sighed and obeyed.
