Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Old Master Li looked at the indifferent Huo Xiaoran. The fight for assets was at a stalemate, but he sat at the side as if nothing had happened and watched this farce calmly.
Old Master Li’s heart skipped a beat. He had protected this child for too long. Perhaps it was time for him to gain experience.
Old Master Li said, “Yes, I’m prepared to hand over all my investments in other industries to Xiaoran because he’s the most talented manager among you brothers.”
The other families were all indignant.
The second branch said, “Dad, you’re indeed biased.”
!!
This immediately angered the master.
“Yes, I’m biased. In my life, I’m too biased towards you brothers. Therefore, you became arrogant. When you’re rich, you only know how to bully your brothers and sisters. When you’re poor, you only know how to reach out to me for money.”
“Which one of you can study hard when you’re poor like your fourth brother and build your own Angel Group? My Li family established a pharmaceutical group that hasn’t fallen in a hundred years. When it reached your hands, you lost it all. How dare you say that I’m biased now?”
“When I was young, I was biased towards you and made Xiaoran suffer so much. Now that I’m old, I want to make it up to Xiaoran. I want to be biased towards him for once. Do you have an opinion?”
The old man reprimanded his sons until they were speechless.
However, in front of money, humanity was gone. Who would give up fighting for the family assets because of that little bit of shame?
“Dad, I’m not convinced. When you were young, although you doted on us, you didn’t give us so much money. Now, you’re giving Fourth Brother more money than you gave us. In my opinion, it’s a lie that Dad loves us, but it’s true that you love Fourth Brother,” Li Tingfeng said indignantly.
Old Master Li sneered. “How dare you say such things? Li Tingfeng, if you hadn’t been so corrupt and led your son astray, do you know that your son, Li Zecheng, would have been my first successor? But look, can he help me? He’s a good child, but he’s learning some bad habits from you. He didn’t cherish his good wife and insisted on cheating and getting a divorce. Even if I transfer the shares to him, the netizens won’t be convinced.”
When the third branch heard Old Master Li’s words, they were shocked and regretful.
At this moment, no matter how stupid they were, they vaguely realized that this was the reason why Old Master Li cared so much about Li Zecheng’s marriage.
Third Madam regretted it so much that her intestines turned green.
It was all because her son had divorced Qiao An that Li Zecheng’s reputation was ruined and was passed over as a successor.
Li Zecheng laughed self-deprecatingly.
“Grandpa. That’s wise of you. Families thrive when they have good wives.”
Wei Xin glared at him. “Li Zecheng, what do you mean?”
Li Zecheng glanced at her in disgust and ignored her.
Third Madam glared at Wei Xin fiercely. “You’ve harmed my son badly. How dare you speak?”
Wei Xin pursed her lips and stopped talking, but the grievance in her eyes was obvious.
Li Tingye knew what the old man was most afraid of. He said, “Dad, if you do this, it will only cause cracks in our relationship. I think this is what Fourth Brother doesn’t want to see, right?”
He could not persuade the old man, so he targeted Huo Xiaoran and hoped that Huo Xiaoran would take the initiative to give up all his assets.
Huo Xiaoran held his teacup and drank leisurely. When he suddenly heard his brother mention his name, he pulled himself together and sat upright. He said faintly, “I’ve never listened to him in my life. But this time, I decided to listen to him. After all, it’s not easy for a sick elderly to plan for the rest of our lives.”
Although these words were light, they humiliated the aggressive brothers until their ears turned red.
“Hmph,” Li Tingye said. “Don’t you just want those assets for yourself?!”
Huo Xiaoran said, “You only look at the name and benefits, but have you never thought about whether you have the fortune to enjoy them? Do you think you have the ability to enter the Soaring Cloud Group and compete with those high-quality talents?”
“Dad is afraid that you will embarrass yourselves, so he won’t hand over the Soaring Cloud shares to you.”
These words touched Old Master Li’s heart.
He nodded eagerly.
Finally, he said, “Stop it. It’s decided.”
Li Tingye suddenly stood up and threw the wine glass on the coffee table angrily.
He glared at Huo Xiaoran fiercely with an aura of destruction and provocation.
Old Master Li wanted to reprimand Li Tingye, but in the end, he shut up. Instead, he looked at Huo Xiaoran quietly. He wanted to see if Huo Xiaoran could deal with this old fox.
“Fourth Brother, it’s getting late. Why don’t you have dinner at my Li family tonight?” Li Tingye said maliciously.
Huo Xiaoran turned to look at Qiao An. “An’an, can we go home later tonight?”
Qiao An looked at Li Tingye. Although Li Tingye’s arrogance frightened the women in the room, the ruthlessness in Qiao An’s eyes was very sharp.
“Sure,” she agreed readily.
As someone who had experienced many hardships, why would she be afraid of internal strife?
Huo Xiaoran smiled in relief.
“I’ll listen to my wife.” His attitude was soft and unruly, but he gave off a carefree feeling.
Old Master Li was very satisfied with the unyielding Qiao An and the tactful Huo Xiaoran.
At dinner, the kitchen prepared a number of rich dinners.
Qiao An whispered to Huo Xiaoran, “Brother Xiaoran, tonight’s dinner is probably a trap. Be careful.”
Huo Xiaoran smiled at Qiao An and teased her, “You still know that tonight is a trap? Then why did you agree to stay for dinner?”
Qiao An snorted. “Hmph. We don’t have to be afraid of him.”
Huo Xiaoran smiled and said, “I thought I married a little white rabbit, but she turned out to be a tigress that bites.”
Jo Ann punched him. “You’re teasing me?”
At dinner, they finally got the chance to eat with Huo Xiaoran. How could the cunning brothers let Huo Xiaoran off so easily?
The eldest brother said to the servant at the side, “Today is a good day for us brothers to reunite. How can there be no wine on such a day?”
Huo Xiaoran’s expression darkened.
He couldn’t drink. For one thing, he was a terrible drinker, and for another, his nervous system seemed to be very sensitive to alcohol, which could excite him.
However, the brothers had already enthusiastically pushed the glasses in front of him and poured him wine.
How could Huo Xiaoran not understand their thoughts? They couldn’t wait to get him drunk so that he would impulsively promise them some benefits.
