Chapter 617: 617, Will, Reading 1
Yan Pingdan is here, the topic of studying abroad doesn’t need the two of us to decide anymore.
Shi Yuhuan has been quite busy these days, hardly at home. Only later did Song Qinghuan find out that Han Qianqian’s father, Han Wen, had passed away.
She was not sure why, but upon hearing this news, her heart was filled with an inexplicable unrest.
Recalling Shi Yuhuan’s suggestion about going abroad, she felt as though she was in the darkness before dawn.
Although Han Wen’s funeral was arranged by Shi Annuo, Qianqian was the primary director.
Guests came in droves to pay respects to Han Wen, but Han Qianqian remained composed, showing no signs of weakness. She was very strong.
But Shi Annuo knew that her strength was just on the surface. For two consecutive nights, when nobody was around, he had seen Qianqian sobbing in front of her father’s portrait in the mourning hall.
Shi Annuo went forward to comfort her and offer support, but was met with indifferent silence. Seeing him, Qianqian seemed unusually calm.
Feeling an ache in his heart, Shi Annuo kept thinking that Qianqian had changed. She was no longer the same Qianqian he knew.
But he was at a loss as to what exactly had changed.
After Han Wen’s funeral, it was time for the reading of the will.
That day, all the members of the Han and Shi Families came, as they were the witnesses.
Inside the large Han Family mansion that day was Song Qinghuan, who had to be present, because according to the lawyer, all members of the Shi Family had to verify it.
However, after everyone had gathered, they waited a long time without the lawyer appearing to begin reading.
Qianqian was getting impatient and asked the lawyer why he was taking so long. The lawyer said there was still one person missing who had a relationship with the will.
Wen Fang, Qianqian was visibly unhappy.
She knew who was missing. Glaring at her father’s mistress Li Yu, she coldly said, “Don’t wait anymore, read it.”
The lawyer was in a difficult position, hesitatingly replying, “This…isn’t proper.”
“Read it!” An icy voice echoed in from the entrance.
Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice, only to see a tall figure standing in the doorway, half swallowed in shadow. His face was obscured, but the straight lines of his figure were imposing, creating an oppressive atmosphere.
He walked slowly, with a casual air. As he stepped out of the shadows and into where everyone could see him, his handsome features lit by a wicked smile, became apparent.
Li Yu couldn’t contain her excitement and whispered, “Yinqian, you’re here!”
Han Yinqian, Qianqian’s half-brother from the same father, was someone she had no good feelings toward. Her father’s mistress’s son was older than she was, and even when her own mother was still alive, even before she was born, her father was already involved with this woman named Li Yu and even had a child.
This was also why Qianqian had always loved to go against her father all these years.
Qianqian lazily turned her eyes to the lawyer, “Go on with it.”
Seeing that Han Yinqian had arrived, the lawyer nodded his head and began to read Han Wen’s will.
Before reading the will, Han Wen had returned all temporarily managed shares belonging to Qianqian’s uncle, Lun Biao.
Looking at Lun Biao’s smug and pleased smile, Qianqian found herself wishing she could smash the cup in front of her on his head.
The inheritance was straightforward, all properties under Han Wen’s name, except for a large domestic hotel given to Han Wen’s illegitimate son, Han Yinqian, were inherited by Qianqian.
