Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

Chapter 319

The science and technology conference was brightly lit, and entrepreneurs from all walks of life gathered there.

Si Chu, as the government representative, attended the event with Liu Jinnian and Yan Xue.

He introduced the man to the entrepreneurs familiarly: "This is Assistant Liu, who previously served as the chairman's assistant at the Qin Group."

Liu Jinnian chatted and laughed with several well-known entrepreneurs, while Yan Xue stood aside, her eyes filled with pride.

She thought to herself, "Gold will always shine. Even if Brother Jin Nian's career path is different from that in my dream, he is still so outstanding."

"I heard that Mr. Qin, the young CEO of the Qin Group, will be coming today. Will his wife be accompanying him?"

An entrepreneur suddenly asked a question, and the people around him also showed expectant expressions.

Liu Jinnian's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

"Mr. Qin is really amazing. I heard that Qin Motors will be listed overseas soon."

"Mrs. Qin is a source of pride for our nation. My son is a huge fan of the supercars she designed."

The conversation immediately turned to Qin Shi and his wife.

Yan Xue bit her lip tightly, inwardly annoyed: "These blind fools, why did they have to mention Qin Shi and his wife! And Yan Lan, she's actually Goddess Ou!"

Liu Jinnian remained silent. Even now, he still found it hard to believe that Yan Lan was the God of Ou.

He always thought he knew Yan Lan very well.

But now it seems like it was all a joke. He didn't understand her at all, or rather, Yan Lan never trusted him.

So what about Qin Shi? How much does he know about Yan Lan?

"Ladies and gentlemen," Si Chu said with an official smile, "Mr. Qin will indeed be here today."

The government is eager to cultivate more outstanding young entrepreneurs like President Qin and Mr. Ou.

He spoke grand and righteous words, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes—he knew very well that those whose death warrants were posted on the prison network had no chance of survival.

Inside Yunhu Villa, Yan Lan's eyes were bloodshot.

After several hours of hard work, she finally broke through the prison network's firewall. This dark web was clearly backed by top-tier hackers; even with her skills, it was quite a challenge.

She never mentioned the prison network or her mother to Qin Shi.

The moment the login was successful, a wanted poster issued more than ten hours earlier caught the eye—the target was Qin Shi!

The bad feeling grew stronger and stronger, as if something was about to happen.

Yan Lan's heart sank, and she immediately dialed Qin Shi's number. Qin Shi had already set off for a science and technology conference in a neighboring city at dawn and should be arriving soon.

"No one's answering?"

She hurriedly dialed the numbers of her entourage, but none of them could be reached.

An unprecedented panic swept in.

Yan Lan grabbed her coat and was about to head to the neighboring city when a commotion suddenly broke out downstairs.

The butler rushed upstairs in a panic, his face ashen: "Young Madam, something terrible has happened! The helicopter the young master was on... has crashed!"

Yan Lan felt a buzzing in her head, and then she heard someone exclaim, "Madam!"

Upon learning this news, Madam Qin was so devastated that she fainted...

At the technology conference, only ten minutes remained before the start. Liu Jinnian glanced at Qin Shi's empty seat once again.

At this moment, a staff member quickly walked to Si Chu's side and whispered a few words in his ear.

Si Chu suddenly stood up, and Liu Jinnian's heart immediately jumped, her hands unconsciously clenching.

Si Chu stepped onto the stage, his face grave: "Gentlemen, I have just received an urgent notification."

One of the key guests at the conference, Mr. Qin Shi, Chairman of Qin Motors, was involved in a helicopter explosion half an hour ago. The conference is suspended for today.

The room erupted in uproar.

Liu Jinnian's tightly clenched hands suddenly loosened, while Yan Xue's mind went blank.

Qin Shi... is dead?

Yan Xue trembled as she took out her phone and, sure enough, saw that the news of the "helicopter crash" had made headlines in major media outlets.

Her heart was pounding, and a complex, indescribable emotion welled up inside her—a mixture of joy and something else she couldn't quite put her finger on...

Qin Shi really died.

Liu Jinnian strode out of the noisy hall, his eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses flashing with a complex light. He took out his phone, his fingertip lingered on the contacts for a moment, and finally dialed Shen Yunzhong's number.

"Did you do this?" Shen Yunzhong's voice was as cold as ice on the other end of the phone.

Liu Jinnian didn't answer immediately. He leaned against a marble pillar in the corridor, looking at the blinding sunlight outside the window, his Adam's apple bobbing: "This is also the Secretary-General's intention."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, with only heavy breathing heard.

After a long silence, Shen Yunzhong finally spoke: "I'm at the hospital. The Qin family is in complete chaos."

He paused, then continued, "Also... Yan Lan just had a miscarriage scare and was taken to the hospital. It's very likely she won't be able to save her baby."

“Pah—”

Liu Jinnian's phone slipped from her fingers and crashed heavily onto the marble floor.

The cracked lines on the screen spread out like a spider web, reflecting his pale face.
