After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor

Chapter 713 - 694: How deep must the hatred be to act so ruthlessly?

The Qin Family was in turmoil on this day, as the matriarch passed away in her sleep in the morning.

Unexpectedly, Qin Mobai, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly returned.

Just after dinner, they were called back to the main residence for an important announcement.

Originally, everyone planned to start the vigil at the main residence after dinner, but instead, it turned into the second family meeting of the day.

The decorations at the main residence were already enveloped in black and white to align with the upcoming funeral atmosphere.

In the side hall of the main residence, the ancestors of the Qin Family were memorialized, and when everyone arrived one after another, they were all overwhelmed by the atmosphere within.

Kneeling before the memorial tablets, who else could it be but Qin Rui Li and Xi Changqing?

And it seemed Qin Mobai’s neck had been bandaged; previously, when looking at Qin Mobai, there was no sign of this wound on his neck!

But no one dared to ask about this scene, fearing any connection to it; it’s wise to protect oneself during such sensitive times.

The members of the Qin Family had almost all gathered.

Qin Ruiqian stood in the center of the side hall, yet did not see the person who should have been there.

"Where is Xi Siwei?" Qin Ruiqian said in a deep voice, displaying his authority as the most senior member of the Qin Family.

No one answered Qin Ruiqian because they didn’t know where Xi Siwei was either.

"We did this; it has nothing to do with Xi Siwei. Who cares if he comes back!" Qin Rui Li said resolutely, showing a certain stubborn defiance.

Qin Ruiqian looked coldly at Qin Rui Li and said, "Fine, if he doesn’t return today, then he should never come back again!"

Everyone wondered what had happened to make Qin Ruiqian so irritable. Although Qin Rui Li had been somewhat annoying these past few years, it wouldn’t normally anger Qin Ruiqian this much!

"Who are you to stop my son from coming back? Do you intend to take over the entire Qin Family? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re scheming, wanting to monopolize everything Dad left behind!" Qin Rui Li was kneeling, but her neck stiffened, eager to take on Qin Ruiqian with fierce resolve.

The members of the Qin Family sat in their respective seats, watching Qin Rui Li with some astonishment.

Everyone knew Qin Rui Li always wanted to secure some status for her son and husband within the Qin Family, but to challenge Qin Ruiqian so boldly, has she really thrown caution to the wind?

Just then, Xi Siwei rushed back, seeing his parents kneeling before the ancestral tablets and the expressions on Qin Mobai and Lou Xi’s faces.

Xi Siwei understood his parents’ deeds had been exposed, and before he could do anything to salvage the situation, it was already too late.

Xi Siwei’s temples throbbed, momentarily at a loss for words!

"Now that everyone’s here, I’ll announce something and give you all a warning!" Qin Ruiqian said coldly, directly targeting the kneeling Qin Rui Li and Xi Changqing.

Everyone perked up their ears, curious to know what the announcement would be.

They heard Qin Ruiqian say: "The incident where Mo Bai was shot was actually orchestrated by Qin Rui Li and Xi Changqing, intending to kill Mo Bai!"

After Qin Ruiqian finished speaking, the entire Qin Family fell into a dead silence.

They had been speculating about who wanted to kill Qin Mobai, but never imagined it would be someone close to them! Their own family!

What immense hatred would drive someone to such an act?
