Chapter 71 Obtaining the Household Register Through Trickery

The news of the CEO of Shang Group being hospitalized quickly spread throughout Ryan Hospital. The leaders from all departments of the hospital came to visit one after another. Qu Xiao was afraid that they would affect Shang Yan’s recuperation, so she arranged for Li to stand guard outside the ward.

In the ward, Shang Yan quietly watched Qu Xiao, pursing his thin lips and raising an arc. His well-defined handsome face was wrapped in layers of gauze.

Shang Yan’s ribs were broken. He could not rely on his own strength to sit up for too long.

Qu Xiao peeled an apple earnestly. Just as she was about to apologize, Qu Zhen suddenly barged in and interrupted her.

Qu Zhen, who was wearing a hospital gown, stood by the bedside with a worried expression. She spoke in a concerned tone, “I’m really sorry that I caused you to have an accident. If you need anything, you can always let me know. Xiao will take care of you here. If she’s too busy, I can help…”

“Thank you for your concern. I can take care of Shang Yan’s matters. You should take care of your own body.”

Qu Xiao’s tone was choking as she spoke. She could not help but vent her anger on Shang Yan. She raised her beautiful eyes and glared at him.

Shang Yan wanted to say something, but Qu Xiao stuffed a few pieces of chopped apples into his mouth to shut him up.

Shang Yan could only nod his head and keep

quiet.

When Qu Zhen saw the way they interacted, she held the corner of her shirt with some envy. Then, as if she had made a decision, she said, “Regarding the matter of moving my Chinese medicine store, I would like to discuss it with you guys.”

“I came back to China to do business. The location of my Chinese medicine store is very important. If I give up on this location, I might not be able to engage in medical research in the short term. This will affect my career development. I can move away, but Xiao has to agree to one condition.”

Qu Zhen’s gaze fell on Qu Xiao as she said lightly, “I want to be part of Qu Group. Give me a position.”

Qu Xiao’s hand that was holding the fruit knife paused. She raised her eyes and sized up Qu Zhen. Her eyes were filled with suspicion and speculation.

Qu Zhen had studied Western medicine under a professor overseas. At the same time, she had a very solid theoretical foundation in Chinese medicine.

Among the many subsidiary companies under Qu Group, the one with the best development prospects was the one in the biopharmaceutical field. Even if Qu Zhen was not a child of the Qu family, Qu Group could really use a talent like her at the moment. Qu Xiao had no reason to refuse at all.

Qu Xiao lowered her eyes and thought for a long time before she nodded and replied, “Alright, I promise you.” No matter what intentions Qu Zhen had, Qu Xiao was confident that she would be able to restrict her movements and keep control of her shares.

Three days later, Shang Yan’s body had recovered quite well. When she went back to the villa to change her clothes, Qu Xiao conveniently went to the Qu family’s villa and prepared to hand over the household register to Shang Xinchen so that he could help her go through the enrollment procedures.

At the Qu family’s villa, Mr. Qu and Yang Mei saw Qu Xiao return and their expressions immediately turned ugly.

When the two of them learned that Qu Xiao wanted to obtain the household register, they repeatedly rejected her.

Yang Mei recalled what happened when Miss Zhang came to visit. Her eyes were filled with hatred and anger as she glared at Qu Xiao, “What? With Shang Yan backing you up, do you need to personally handle such a small matter? You want to take the household register from us? Dream on!”

Qu Xiao could not be bothered to waste her breath dealing with them. She sat on the sofa and stared at the two of them as she asked, “What do I have to do to get it?”

“We’ll have to think about that carefully!”

Yang Mei and Mr. Qu exchanged glances. Their eyes moved slightly as a smile appeared on their faces. Their eyes flickered with viciousness and greed as they said, “If you transfer Qu Group’s shares to us for free, I’ll immediately get it for you!”

Qu Xiao was so angry that she couldn’t help but laugh. She furrowed her eyebrows and stared at Mr. Qu, quickly thinking of the conditions that could make them compromise.

Ding! Qu Xiao’s eyes lit up as she leaned forward as she thought of something. Her hands were clasped on her knees, “It’s impossible for me to give you the shares, but I can think of a way to get Qu Zhen a position in the pharmaceutical department and management in the group.”

“At present, the management of the group supports me. You must hope for someone to have a say in my decisions, right?”

Mr. Qu was swayed by her words. He narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. Soon, he made a decision and signaled Yang Mei to take the household register.

He controlled the ecstasy in his heart and handed the book to Qu Xiao. “You won’t go back on your word, right?”

Qu Xiao placed the household register together with the transfer application that Shang Xinchen had sent her. Holding it in her hand, she stood up indifferently and said, “I’m different from you. I’ll never go back on my word.”
