I treated you like a godfather, and you actually dated my sister!

Qu Man stared at her biological mother with a somewhat confused look in her eyes.

She wanted to learn from her mother, but didn't know what to learn.

Let's use the same methods we use to discipline the brat. He's been behaving quite well, so it doesn't seem necessary.

She figured she should figure out how to handle her little brother; she felt things were fine as they were now and there was no need for anything else.

As for that aspect...

This is her own mother, how could she possibly say it out loud?

She knew her mother had many methods, but none of them were suitable for her.

My brother is face-blind, so his methods of flirting are completely unnecessary.

There's one thing I just can't bring myself to say, and that's really frustrating!

Who is Qu Man?

Qu Man is a piece of Guan Ya's flesh and blood. She was raised by Guan Ya from a baby. How could Guan Ya not notice her undisguised little expressions?

This only made Guan Ya more curious: what could have made her daughter, who was usually so emotionally detached, show such an expression?

It's worth noting that since high school, her daughter has rarely shown her true feelings on her face.

It was precisely because of Qu Man's character that her husband, Mr. Qu, considered stepping down as the group's president and letting her take over, which is also the reason for bringing her back this time.

"Manman, is there something you want to tell Mommy?"

"what?"

Qu Man snapped out of her daze and saw her mother's ageless face almost touching her face, so she quickly shook her head.

"No, no, what could I possibly have to say? I'm only talking about company matters, which you wouldn't understand."

Upon hearing Qu Man's words, Guan Ya leaned back and looked at her eldest daughter with disdain.

She doesn't understand?

Are you kidding me?

Don't be fooled by her seemingly carefree and unconcerned lifestyle; her husband always consults her beforehand about any decisions or projects he makes!

It's safe to say that there's nothing Guan Ya doesn't know about the entire group, from its core projects to the gossip among the security guards!

On the surface, she seems to be playing games every day, but who knows how many of her in-game friends are actually from other companies?

Take the security guard for example. With just a flick of her finger, she could know exactly what time Old Qu entered the company, how many times he went to the restroom, and whether any female secretaries were eager to escort him.

Now my daughter says she doesn't understand or doesn't know?

Isn't this just like trying to show off your skills in front of Guan Yu?

Guan Ya can say with certainty that no one knows more about the group's affairs than her, no one!

"I don't understand? Then tell me, and I'll see when I became so ignorant."

Qu Man glanced at her dramatic mother and simply ignored her. She had experienced this kind of scene countless times since she was a child, and she wouldn't play such a childish game with her.

When Guan Ya saw that her daughter didn't speak, her beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed.

Something's not right. Something's nine out of ten things is wrong.

There's no way anything could make my daughter look like that; she knows her own daughter best.

Even if she knew that he and Lao Qu were going to take a round-the-world trip and hand over the company to her, she wouldn't show this expression.

For Qu Man, this wasn't a punishment, but a benefit, because her daughter liked challenges and the pressure she felt.

Guan Ya squinted and carefully looked Qu Man up and down. Her gaze made Qu Man feel uneasy. If this beautiful woman wasn't her own mother, she would have given her an over-the-shoulder throw!

It's just too creepy, like taking a bath together naked when we were kids.

Guan Ya's mind raced, and after a moment, her eyes lit up as if she had just thought of something: "Manman, tell Mom, have you found a boyfriend?"

Qu Man knew her biological mother's thought process, so she was prepared. Even when asked the key question, Qu Man's expression remained calm.

"No, I don't need a boyfriend."

"Hmm~?"

Guan Ya hummed in confusion. This wasn't right; it wasn't about the company, it wasn't about her boyfriend, could it be...?

Thinking of this, Guan Ya widened her eyes and looked around. When she saw that the figure she was always with was not there, Guan Ya slapped her thigh.

She knew it, she knew it...

She knew there was something wrong with those two!

The two of them used to be inseparable, but this time they weren't. Moreover, Qu Man even had that kind of expression on her face. There's no doubt that there's something going on between them!

"Oh dear, oh dear~ My heart is pounding, tell me, tell me, Manman, how could you, how could you.... Oh my little heart."

Guan Ya nestled on the sofa, clutching her bulging heart and groaning incessantly, her delicate features contorted in pain!

Just as Qu Man was about to say something, a dark shadow flashed past her eyes, followed by a sharp toothache.

"Honey, honey, what's wrong? What's wrong? Is your chest uncomfortable? Let me rub it for you, and I'll call 120 right away so we can go to the hospital!"

"Waaaaah~ Honey, my heart aches, my heart hurts so much!"

"Honey, you're not in pain! I'll go get the car right now, let's go to the hospital!"

"No need, my husband can rub it for me, it'll make the pain go away!"

"Okay, okay, honey, I'll massage it for you. Honey, it doesn't hurt anymore!"

Although she has watched it countless times, Qu Man still feels nauseous when she sees this scene now!

This feeling is extremely strong!

Moreover, even though my stomach was empty, I still felt full, as if I had eaten something inexplicably and was very, very full!

In other words, Bai Zhi wasn't there. If Bai Zhi were there, she would definitely have pulled Qu Man aside, pointed at Qu Man's parents, and said something to Qu Man.

"See? See? This is how you and your brat treated me back then! Disgusting!"

"Honey, why does your chest hurt so much? Did that brat Qu Hao upset you again? I'll beat him to a pulp!"

Qu Jingzhou said angrily, his handsome middle-aged face showing no love for his son, only the urge to beat the brat to death!

It's only because Qu Hao wasn't around, otherwise he probably would have already drawn the Seven Wolves sword from his waist!

Guan Ya held her husband's hand, her face contorted with pain, but her hand pointed at Qu Man: "Husband, husband, she, she, she actually... Waaah... Husband, my heart aches so much!"

Qu Jingzhou was dumbfounded. What outrageous thing had his precious daughter done? How could she have made his beloved daughter so angry?

Qu Man was also confused. She wanted to ask her mother what she was thinking earlier, but now she was doing this again. How was she supposed to know what her dramatic mother was thinking this time?

With her own mother's brain circuitry, even if you cracked her skull, she wouldn't be a tenth as good as her. She really can't keep up!

Qu Man glared at her dramatic mother, her face darkening. "Mom, just say what you want to say. Who can guess what you're trying to say?"

"Waaaaah~ Honey, look at her, she's yelling at me!"

Qu Man: "..."
