Chapter 604: Extra: Hand in Hand (Extra Completed)
Shen Yan’s public image as a good person added a lot of color to her reputation, and no matter how the Qi Family tried to tarnish it, they only succeeded in smearing themselves, earning the ire of the circle and being cursed as heartless and ungrateful. If it weren’t for Old Sir Qi, would the Qi Family have achieved its success today?
Yes.
There were indeed many inheritances passed down from the ancestors, but by the generation before Old Sir Qi, they had nearly been squandered. Without Old Sir Qi’s efforts to turn the tide, the Qi Family would have ended with the generation before him.
So, the credit indeed goes to Old Sir Qi.

For over a decade, they had been blind.
