Chapter 61: Brothers, Let’s Make a Bet
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Tang Li listened to the three of them finish what they wanted to say quietly, and she acted like she was actually listening to them.
“Brothers, you are right. When father dies, I’ll be done for.” Qi Yihan made it clear to her that when his father died, they would divorce immediately. “So for my own sake, I won’t let father die.”
When the three of them heard her, they all looked amused.
After a while, Third Master sneered and said, “Women are indeed women. They know nothing. Do you think Father won’t die just because you say so? Even if a god came to treat him, he wouldn’t be able to recover.”
“If father hears what Third Brother said, he’ll definitely be so angry that he won’t acknowledge you as his son.”
Third Master narrowed his eyes and exuded a murderous aura. “Are you threatening me?”
“No, I’m telling the truth.” Tang Li said to them seriously, “Brothers, why don’t we make a bet? I said that Father will recover in a month. Do you believe me?”
The three of them felt that Tang Li was daydreaming.
They looked at each other and immediately changed their plan.
They were certain that Tang Li wanted to do it alone, which was why she had been acting so abnormally recently. Since Fourth Brother was their common enemy, why didn’t they use Tang Li as a pawn? There were some things that they wanted her to do. When the time came, even if things did not go according to their plan, they could still use her as a shield.
First Master said, “Bet? Why not? If Father recovers in a month, we’ll do whatever you ask us to do… If Father doesn’t recover…”
At this point, First Master’s gaze turned sharp. “What’s your bet?”
“Just like you. I’ll do whatever you want me to do.”
“Alright!”
Second Master smiled, a shrewd smile. “In that case, let’s make this bet. Tang Li, in order for you to not go back on your word, why don’t we make a written pledge?”
As long as the written pledge was there, if Tang Li dared to go back on her word, they would bring the written pledge to their fourth brother and make him fulfill what she promised.
Tang Li smiled when she saw their reaction. She went to get a pen and paper and quickly wrote the pledge.
It was clearly written in the pledge that if their father could be cured within a month, the three masters would do whatever Tang Li wanted. If their father died, Tang Li would do whatever they wanted. If she couldn’t do it, she would automatically give up the inheritance (shares).
After the four of them signed the written pledge, the three masters wanted to put it away.
“Wait.” Tang Li narrowed her eyes and said, “I don’t trust you guys. What if you add something else in the pledge without my knowledge.”
First Master sneered. “We’re not that despicable.”
“Who knows?” Tang Li sneered as well. “Everyone, let’s take a picture of this written pledge with your phone. We print it out so that each of us will have a copy of the original pledge.”
“I’m the oldest, so naturally I should be the one who keeps the written pledge.”
“I agree.”
“I agree.”
The three of them agreed and looked at Tang Li at the same time. What they meant was clear. It was a three versus one situation, so even if she did not agree, she had to.
Tang Li did not mind at all. “Sure.”
Then, as she waved her hand behind her back, a printer appeared out of the thin air.
She took out her phone, took a picture of the written pledge, and printed a copy, so did the three of them.
The three masters were very satisfied with the written pledge. They thought they would no longer need to be afraid of Tang Li.
Satisfied, they stood up and left.
Once they left, Butler Zhang, who had been waiting outside the door, strode in.
He saw Tang Li sitting on the sofa alone with one hand supporting her chin and the other playing with her phone. He called out hesitantly, “Madam.”
Tang Li looked up at him.
Butler Zhang really wanted to ask what she had talked to the three masters about. He also wanted to advise her not to do anything that would disappoint Master, but he was only a butler and had no right to say these things. In the end, he said vaguely,
“Master is extremely talented in business. It was only when Master took over the Qi family that it became what it is today. In order to develop the Qi Corporation, he has been on business trips for a long time. It’s common for him to stay up a few days in a row. It can be said that without Master, the Qi Corporation would definitely not have its current glory.”
Tang Li looked at Butler Zhang and asked with a smile, “Butler Zhang, what are you trying to say?”
Butler Zhang didn’t care anymore and went all out. “First Master, Second Master, and Third Master have always felt uncomfortable letting Master, who is twice their age, manage them, so they don’t like Master. But they didn’t realize that without Master, they would never be so rich. Madam, if you… interact more with Master, you will definitely find that he is better than others.”
After saying that, Butler Zhang waited anxiously for Tang Li to lose her temper.
He was just a small butler. Saying such things was really overstepping his boundaries.
But he was not wrong in saying all that. The longer people stayed with Qi Yihan, the better people found him to be.
So, he hoped that Tang Li would not do anything to betray Master.
After listening to Butler Zhang, she didn’t say anything and just nodded. Then she opened her phone and quickly typed on it before sending the photo to Qi Yihan.
She also sent a message: “They will not make trouble for the time being.”
After sending the message, Tang Li thought that Qi Yihan would not reply. Unexpectedly, after a while, he replied. “Good.”
Satisfied, Tang Li threw her phone on the coffee table and walked out.
Butler Zhang looked at Tang Li’s back in confusion.
Tang Li said as she walked, “Put my phone away. I’m too lazy to take it.”
Butler Zhang, “Madam, you’ve changed.”
In the past, Tang Li never went out without her phone, and whoever dared to touch it would be severely punished. But now she was throwing it around like it was a useless object, and she wasn’t worried at all that someone might catch a glimpse of something secret on her phone.
Tang Li then went to the old man’s.
At that moment, Butler Wang was feeding the old man some soup. When the old man saw Tang Li come in, he asked, “Did they make things difficult for you?”
“No.” Tang Li smiled. “Father, don’t worry. They are quite friendly to me probably because I am still young.”
Butler Wang could not help but turn to look at her.
The old man nodded as if he believed her. He got tired after drinking the soup.
Tang Li and Butler Wang walked out together.
Butler Wang said, “The three masters said they will ask the missus to come over and accompany you.”
“Did father agree?”
“Master said that it is up to you.”
Tang Li nodded. The fact that the three of them did not mention it just now meant that they no longer cared about whether their daughter could come over or not, so she was happy and relaxed.
The next two days were calm.. Tang Li was still popular among the doctors, and at the same time, some patients came to see her.
