Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 325
Chapter 325: But Who Started It?
Sheng Xiao was the only genius Huang Yao had after so many years. Grandpa Sheng knew he was very intelligent. He wanted not only to use his brain, but to control his life as well.
He did not realize Sheng Xiao’s importance to him before this. But after getting Sixth Brother to replace Sheng Xiao, he could see clearly how big Sheng Xiao’s influence was on Huang Yao.
Could he not accept defeat?
He had to. After all, he was old. But Sheng Xiao still had many years ahead.
After thinking for a whole night, Grandpa Sheng summoned Mama Sheng to see him in his study in the morning. “Xiao Qin, don’t say anything else. Just let Sheng Xiao come back and stabilize the situation in Huang Yao first.”
Mama Sheng mocked at him in her heart. But she did not show her disapproval in front of Grandpa Sheng. “Father, you know Sheng Xiao’s temper. He will not agree if I ask him to come back. You know what he wants.”
“Does he want his grandfather to bow to him and apologize?” Grandpa Sheng was angry.
“You don’t have to. I think Sixth Brother is adapting to his work in Huang Yao. I believe he will be able to replace Sheng Xiao soon.”
Grandpa Sheng turned around and glared at Mama Sheng. “It’s you who spoiled him that he becomes this lawless.”
“Yes, it’s me who didn’t educate him well. So, don’t let that unfilial son come back to Huang Yao anymore.” Mama Sheng left Grandpa Sheng’s study. She felt wronged. Since Sheng Xiao was young, she had no chance to educate her son. It was Grandpa Sheng who made all the arrangements. Sheng Xiao had learned all sorts of things and social skills since young. How could she, as his mother, not feel sad?
Now, Grandpa Sheng was putting the blame on her.
Grandpa Sheng felt helpless. So, he let Papa Sheng do it for him. After all, that unfilial grandson should at least be willing to listen to his father, shouldn’t he?
In the morning, Sheng Xiao got to know about Grandpa Sheng’s plan from Mama Sheng. Of course, he sensed his mother’s irritation. “Did Grandpa scold you?”
“I am used to it already,” replied Mama Sheng. “He wants you to come back but he doesn’t want to admit his fault. You should just stay in Shen Mansion for a few more days.”
Sheng Xiao flinched.
Did Grandpa Sheng think he could get over this easily?
Not so easy this time.
Later, Sheng Xiao accompanied Mu Qiqi to the rehabilitation room. They helped Shen Jianchuan to do his exercises with the therapist.
Seeing Shen Jianchuan making very good progress, the therapist grinned. “If you go on like this, you will be able to walk within this year.”
“For that, I will work hard.”
Soon, the therapist left. Then, Shen Jianchuan saw Sheng Xiao’s face. Although Sheng Xiao tried hard to conceal his feelings, he could easily catch his mood.
“What happened in the Sheng family? Does Grandpa Sheng want you to go back already?”
“Not so easy.” Sheng Xiao said while tidying up the equipment.
“Grandpa Sheng is so problematic. When you talk about family, he talks about rules. And when you talk about rules, he tries to talk about family.”
“So, it is okay if he wants me to go back. But, this time, I have my conditions.”
He has worked so hard for Huang Yao but Grandpa Sheng had taken him for granted and thought it was only natural that he did it for the Sheng family. Since that’s the case, he would just make a deal this time.
In fact, Shen Jianchuan was trying to remind Sheng Xiao about this.
But, Sheng Xiao needed not another person to remind him. He knew it more than anyone else.
“Believe me, you will leave Huang Yao in the end one day. Do you have any interest in helping your father-in-law? Of course, you don’t have to answer me now. For the sake of my daughter, I will provide you the best backup plan.”
Sheng Xiao smiled after hearing this. “That little one doesn’t just have the strongest man, she also has the best father.”
“Huh?”
Mu Qiqi was not listening to their conversation. She was confused when they mentioned her.
The two men were trying to protect the woman they loved the most. In the room, there were father and daughter, husband and wife. So, there was nothing stronger than love.
In the afternoon, Papa Sheng went to Shen Mansion.
Grandpa Shen let them use his study. He went fishing with Shen Jianchuan at the fishpond.
When Papa Sheng saw his son, he sighed deeply. Suppressing his anger, he said, “Enough with your tantrum, you should go home already. Are you planning to stay here forever?”
“This is my father-in-law’s house.”
“Sixth Brother has caused a mess in Huang Yao. Are you not going to do anything? It is only natural that your grandfather controls you. Stop talking nonsense. Pack up and let’s go home.”
“Do you really want me to go back?” Sheng Xiao hid his smile.
“Do I still need to throw you a welcoming party?”
Sheng Xiao looked at his father’s back. When he was about to get out of the study, Sheng Xiao said, “I want to be the CEO of Huang Yao and ten percent of the shares. Otherwise, you can go and play all by yourselves.”
Papa Sheng was stunned. He did not turn around. He just left.
This scum was trying to take over his father’s job?
But he could not deny that it was because of his son that he was able to keep his position in Huang Yao.
Papa Sheng left Shen Mansion angrily. When he returned to Huang Yao, he informed Grandpa Sheng about Sheng Xiao’s request. “That scum asks for my position and ten percent of the shares of Huang Yao. Are these something that he can ask for?”
When Grandpa Sheng found out Sheng Xiao was trying to negotiate with him, he put his hand on his chest and coughed.
“Father, are you alright?”
“He is blaming me for abandoning him after using him. So, he wants to increase his value.”
“You won’t agree, right?” Papa Sheng was worried. Although Sheng Xiao was his son, he was asking for the position as the CEO. That was his.
“He is serious.”
Grandpa Sheng did not say anything. He regretted it very much.
If he knew it, he wouldn’t have taken the bet?
Sheng Xiao was only asking him to acknowledge Mu Qiqi.
But now, in order to get Sheng Xiao back, he not only had to acknowledge Mu Qiqi, he even had to give him the position as the CEO of Huang Yao, and ten percent of the shares.
Who was the one on the losing side now?
Did it need to be calculated?
“Father, if you let him be the CEO, then what should I do?”
“You can do whatever you like.”
Grandpa Sheng was already very angry to have lost so many things. How could he be in the mood to plan for Papa Sheng now?
All he wanted now was to get Mama Sheng to ask that scum if there was any space for negotiation.
Ten percent of the shares was no joke.
“That unfilial child, he is literally a robber!”
But who started it?
It was not Sheng Xiao.
Sometimes, you should be sincere when you can still use kinship as your bargaining chip. But somehow, someone thought that he was the king.
Yes, he could think so. But not everyone would play along.
