"From now on, Qingqing will become the Eldest Young Madam of the Dugu Family." Dugu Heng glanced at Dugu Xing again. "I hope he and the other descendants of the Dugu Family will get along well."

Dugu Xing was very influential among the younger generation. He could not always be on Su Huiqing's side.

It was better if Dugu Xing could acknowledge Su Huiqing.

Dugu Xing only glanced at Su Huiqing cynically. Each descendant depended on their own ability to carve out a place for themselves. Why should this person be granted free entry permission just because she is Dugu Heng's daughter?

"I'll do my best." Dugu Xing lowered his eyes. Just a single word from Dugu Heng was enough to erase all of his hard work.

Seeing Dugu Xing's respectful attitude, the others couldn't help but frown and mutter.

Especially when they saw Dugu Heng introduce Dugu Xing to Su Huiqing.

"Mr Dugu, you've gone too far." This time, even the usually friendly seventh elder could not help but speak up. “Ms Xing is the prodigy of his generation. Making it give way to Su... Eldest Young Madam... I've always respected you, but now you're abusing your power. Don't you think you've gone too far?"

The atmosphere in the hall was rather tense.

Dugu Heng observed the people quietly, before resting his gaze on Su Huiqing for a moment. The sharp corners of his lips twitched.

The elders were all nervous and agitated, but Su Huiqing was the opposite.

He wore earphones and leaned lazily on the pillar. His snow-white shirt accentuated his perfect face. Eyes lowered, he looked extremely indifferent.

Dugu Heng suddenly recalled something that Su Ruohua had told him. Su Huiqing did not care about the title of Eldest Young Madam. No one can force him to do something he doesn't want.

At first, Dugu Heng only half believed him.

But now, he finally believed that Su Huiqing really did not care much about the Dugu Family!

"What do you mean abuse of power?" Dugu Heng's voice turned cold. Anyone who dared to interfere with his plans to admit his daughter—he would give them a lesson they would never forget. “I've been handing over my slots to you guys for the last 20 years. It was done out of good intentions. It's fair for me to take it back now. Are you now taking it for granted just because I have allowed you to take my slots for so many years? Or maybe because of this, you think I can easily be pushed?!”

Welcoming Su Huiqing and her mother into the family should be a joyous moment. He never expected the elders to temper such a mood.

Dugu Heng actually did not want to openly berate these elders in front of Su Huiqing.

But since they were very reluctant to welcome Su Huiqing, there was no point in him holding back their attitude.

Su Ruohua was somewhat surprised by his speech. He had always considered Su Huiqing's domineering and assertive character rather strange. It was completely unlike the style of the Su Family. Now looking at Dugu Heng, he realized how similar the two of them were!

Su Ruohua inevitably massaged her temple.

Everyone in the Dugu Family was pressed into a terrifying silence after the explosion of Dugu Heng.

It must be pointed out that Dugu Heng was someone that even the commander-in-chief had to be careful of!

No one in the hall dared to speak.

Dugu Xing gripped Dugu Jiyun's hand tightly. He gritted his teeth, but still kept his expression in check as he looked at Dugu Heng. He had tried so hard for so long to reach this place. Why should he give way to this ordinary person? Just because she's not Dugu Heng's daughter? Just because he doesn't have a good offspring?!

So he has to give up?!

Who does he think he is?!

Very biased! This is too unfair!

Dugu Jiyun could feel Dugu Xing's anger. He patted Dugu Xing's hand before staring intently at Su Huiqing. Su Huiqing's charm earlier was just a joke!

Dugu Heng glanced at Dugu Xing and said softly, "Dugu Xing, you should remember who first gave you the slot."

Dugu Xing just stood there stubbornly.

He refused to approve. “Mr Dugu, you gave my place to her just because she is your daughter. You want to make up for it, but what about me? ”

He laughed bitterly and turned around slowly. He said in a melancholic voice, “Easy. I will hand over my place to Eldest Young Madam. I wish him all the best.”

Dugu Heng frowned. What does he mean by surrender?

This slot has been his all along. He had occupied it for so many years without even saying thank you, but now saying such a thing?

Dugu Heng's hands trembled with anger. He started to raise his sword.

Su Huiqing noticed Su Ruohua's expression and inevitably rolled her eyes. Her mother is only watching her husband now.

He sighed as he walked forward to hold Dugu Heng's hand.

No one else saw this move. Dugu Heng glanced at Su Huiqing in shock. He had used all his strength, and he knew that no one could hold him back when he was angry, not even the elders.

But Su Huiqing was able to endure it with just one hand.

Nevertheless, Su Huiqing had no time to worry about him. He took off his earphones, looking very cool and calm.

Observing the crowd, he stated simply. “You decide the time.”

"What time?" The first elder was stunned by Dugu Heng's actions. He had only regained consciousness from a trance when Su Huiqing spoke.

Su Huiqing rubbed his ears impatiently as he looked at the first elder with one eyebrow raised brazenly. He looked even more arrogant than Dugu Heng now. “Have we not talked about competing all this time? You decide the time. I'll do it."
