Qiao Yanze smiled and greeted everyone. Only Qiao Fengnian’s smile was sincere. He even went forward and patted Qiao Yanze’s shoulder to express his admiration.

This son of his was smart and transparent. Now that he was starting to improve again, he was naturally satisfied.

However, Qiao Fengnian’s action successfully attracted Qiao Yanze’s hatred. As the older brother, Qiao Yanxun was still considered generous, but Qiao Yansen and Qiao Yanni’s gazes became colder.

Qiao Yanze smiled calmly.

At the dining table that night, they reported to Qiao Fengnian as usual. After talking about serious matters, Qiao Fengnian asked about his grandson and turned the topic to Qiao Yanze.

He was concerned about the same thing as Madam Qiao.

“By the way, Yanze, you’re almost thirty. It’s time to get married.”

Everyone at the dining table immediately looked at Qiao Yanze. Qiao Yansen and Qiao Yanni even looked at each other, revealing a tacit understanding.

They had just received news today that Qiao Yanze had gone to the Li family’s house at noon. Qiao Yanze had had a lot of female companions over the past six months, but it seemed that he still liked Li Yinian.

There were many issues that could be made out of this.

However, they were more curious about whether Qiao Yanze was willing to resist Qiao Fengnian just to marry her.

Sure enough, Qiao Yanze immediately smiled and said, “Dad, you finally remembered that I’m still a bachelor. In fact, I’m also trying to find a wife. I even discussed it with Mom before you came.”

“Oh?” Qiao Fengnian smiled with interest. “You have someone in mind?”

Qiao Yanze raised his eyebrows and smiled. “What do you think of Miss Yun from Yunshi Corporation?”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked.

Yunshi Corporation was also one of the largest companies in the country. Its headquarters was not in Yang City, but it was worth mentioning that Yunshi and Fengqiao had connections in many businesses. The two companies had cooperated many times before.

From this perspective, Miss Yun was indeed a very suitable marriage partner.

This was definitely a candidate that could satisfy both Qiao Fengnian and Madam Qiao.

However, to others, this was extremely bad news. If Qiao Yanze really married Miss Yun, he would definitely be able to obtain Yun Shi’s cooperation and support. Yun Shi would definitely want his son-in-law to become Feng Qiao’s heir.

Qiao Yanze was a huge threat to begin with. If he obtained the support of Yunshi Corporation, what would happen?

Qiao Yanxun and the others’ expressions changed drastically.

Hence, before Qiao Fengnian could express his approval, Qiao Yansen could not help but say, “Really? Yanze, why did I hear that you went to the Li family today? I don’t know what you said to Li Changdong, but he calls himself your father-in-law.”

Madam Qiao wasn’t that well-informed. Her expression changed drastically, and Qiao Fengnian looked displeased.

“Is this true, Yanze?”

“I did go to the Li family.” Qiao Yanze frowned slightly. “But I’ve already given Li Changdong such a huge sum of hush money. How dare he still talk nonsense?”

“What’s going on?” Qiao Fengnian put down his chopsticks.

“I had a relationship with Li Yinian before, but of course, I couldn’t marry her. However, Li Changdong pestered me again, so I had to go to the Li family personally to resolve this problem.” Qiao Yanze said casually. “The Li family is far inferior to Yunshi Corporation.”

“Yanze, you’re a man. Not only did you abandon your woman, but you also want to rely on your wife’s family to climb up the ranks?” Qiao Yanni couldn’t help scolding.
