Yan Xiaye did indeed have this intention, she had originally planned to put it more subtly, yet she did not expect her little thoughts to be so directly exposed by Old Mr. Qin.
After thinking it over, she still spoke softly in line with her original intent: "I know that the Qin Family represents the efforts of your lifetime, and I am touched that you are willing to consider me as a potential heir, but my past experiences are quite ordinary, and I have never been involved in business. I'm afraid I may not be able to bear this honor and responsibility."
Old Mr. Qin didn't rush to refute her. He looked at her with a naturally affectionate and appreciative gaze, and said meaningfully, "What I am giving you is not the Qin Family, but freedom— a kind of freedom to do as you please."
Yan Xiaye didn't quite understand and had some vague guesses that she dared not confirm, but since Old Mr. Qin had more to say, all she needed to do was to listen quietly.
