Chapter 040 The Ungrateful Wolf_1

"Yuji, what... what do you mean by this?"

Madam Hu took a long time to recover from her shock.

Not until she saw Liu Huiru with an utterly astounded look did Madam Hu realize the Qin family must be hiding something from them.

Ignoring the pale and shaking Liu Huiru, Qin Yuji sincerely looked towards Madam Hu, "I am truly honored to attend your esteemed house's banquet. However, I only just learned of the two families' intentions to become kin, and I hope to share some hidden truths with you beforehand, to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future."

"I was merely adopted by the Qin family from an orphanage and share no blood relation with Mayor Qin and Madam Qin. Although the Qin family has been kind in raising me, it was only for a few years. From my teenage years in middle school, I began to work and study to support myself, and the debt of gratitude I owed the Qin family was repaid three years ago."
