Chapter 1241: A Message
The two brothers, Qi Zhiqiang and Qi Zhi’an, looked somewhat similar, but their personalities were very different.
Qi Zhi’an was more stable, as he had one wife, Ling Xiao, and never fooled around outside.
Qi Zhiqiang was a different story.
He has had many girlfriends since he was a teenager.
Even after he got married, he was not able to stop his wandering.
With his fooling around, it was possible that he had a child out of wedlock.
After all these years, no one had come to the door with a child.
Now, Xia Xibei suddenly emerged, and she could certainly be connected to him!
If it was before, the old man would be very angry.
The patriarch would want to teach him a lesson for making such a mess!
However, Xia Xibei’s performance was too good. Her clear and beautiful lotus flower prevented him from scolding Qi Zhiqiang. He only wanted to keep Xia Xibei in the family.
The Qi family’s development over the years could only be described as lukewarm.
Lukewarm was not a good word for a family’s heritage, because it meant that their family did not have many outstanding offspring.
Without outstanding offspring, how could the family continue to pass on their talent?
Although the situation of other families was not too good either, it was really a headache that there was no good potential in their own family.
The patriarch, especially, felt tired.
Now, Xia Xibei’s talent was a once-in-a-century occurrence!
She was a gift from God to their Qi family!
So, no matter who Xia Xibei’s biological father and mother were, as long as it was certain that she was a Qi family member, that was enough.
Outside the room, Qi Zhiqiang’s face did not look good.
Just now, he wanted to go in, but was stopped by the old man.
What the old man meant was that he didn’t need to worry about these important matters.
No need for him to worry?
Hah!
Qi Zhiqiang knew that the old man had always looked down on him, but such differential treatment was so hateful!
Qi Zhiqiang had always been very upset. He was the eldest son, yet the old man chose Qi Zhi’an to be the head of the family, It was too biased!
Of course, he would never critique himself, much less feel inferior to Qi Zhi’an.
After waiting outside for a while, Qi Zhiqiang’s cell phone suddenly vibrated.
He opened it with an unpleasant expression, but after reading the content, he was stunned.
After carefully pondering the meaning of the message, he was immediately overjoyed.
Before he could continue to rejoice, the door opened and someone invited him in.
This time, Qi Zhiqiang raised his head and chest, revealing a bright smile.
“Dad.”
Qi Zhiqiang’s face was complicated after entering the room, looking at the few people inside.
If it were as usual, the old man would have given him a good lecture, but at this time, he had no time to think that much.
“Zhiqiang, do you know her?” the patriarch asked, pointing at Xia Xibei.
He was of course just asking, not thinking that Qi Zhiqiang could give any useful answer. After all, everyone was there just now and could see Qi Zhiqiang’s bad attitude towards Xia Xibei.
“I- I should.”
To people’s surprise, he replied yes.
This statement made everyone blanch.
“What do you mean you should know?”
Qi Zhiqiang smiled bitterly for a moment, then took out his phone.
“I just received a message.”
“A message?”
Everyone frowned in unison. What message?
“Show it to me.”
The old man held out his hand towards him.
Qi Zhiqiang nodded and handed the phone over.
When the old man finished reading the content on the phone, his face was very complicated, filled with a little shock, but also with a lot of joy.
