Chapter 46 The Quarrel
“Can you cancel your Tulip International order?” Xiao Shun asked softly.
With this fifty million order, Tulip International could survive even if they didn’t do anything else.
Since that was what they wanted, of course he wouldn’t let Yao Han get what he wanted that easily.
“Can I know why?” Wang Feng asked after a brief moment of dismay on his end.
“That company doesn’t belong to my wife anymore.”
“Oh, I see. But, don’t you want to keep the bomb? Maybe if there can be a better time for it to explode.” Wang Feng had been in the business world for many years and from Xiao Shun’s tone he already understood what had happened. He hesitated a little and laughed lightly.
Xiao Shun then laughed out loud as well. It was just that easy to talk to smart people.
He said faintly, “You’re right.”
Wang Feng smiled brightly, “Doctor Xiao, this bomb can go off at any time now, and the fuse is in your hand.”
“Then thank you, Mr. Wang.”
After he hung up, he sneered, ‘I’ve got more than a pair of bombs on my hands right now. You want to have some fun? You can’t win even if I show my hand!’
When Yao Cen woke up in a daze, she saw Xiao Shun sitting on the edge of the bed gazing at her. She suddenly blushed and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice, “When did you get back? What time is it?”
Xiao Shun looked back, coughed lightly twice to hide his embarrassment, and said softly, “It’s ten o’clock. You haven’t had dinner. Maybe I can find you something to eat?”
Yao Cen shook her head. She looked gloomy and her eyes reddened again and said, “No, there’s no need. I don’t want to eat.”
“I already know everything. Why don’t you give yourself a break? Take a break and forget about some decorating company.”
“Then who’s going to pay our bills?” Yao Cen laughed bitterly.
“You have me. Now it’s my turn to support the family.” Xiao Shun said with a serious face.
“You? Then how are you going to support our family?” Yao Cen gave him a blank look. Despite the words, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
“Don’t forget that I’ve got a big villa now.” Xiao Shun joked.
Yao Cen glanced at him. However, when she looked at that smug look of his, she blossomed into a smile again. She reached out and pinched him a few times. Xiao Shun didn’t hide and let her.
“Are you a piece of wood, feeling nothing?”
Yao Cen paused and sighed, “I’ll talk to Grandpa Zhenshu tomorrow, maybe we have a chance.”
“I’ll go with you.” Xiao Shun thought for a moment.
Yao Cen nodded.
…
According to the rules of the Yao family, only the direct line of the head of the family would be allowed in this mansion.
The following morning, at the main hall of the Yao mansion, Yao Zhenshu, Yao Han, Yao Han’s parents, and several other direct-line relatives gathered.
“Grandpa, when do you plan to take back Tulip International?” asked Yao Han with a smile on his face as he stood behind Yao Zhenshu and gave him a massage on the shoulder.
Yao Zhenshu turned his face slightly sideways and said in a deep voice, “What? You need Tulip International?”This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
He knew this grandson of his well. He was useless but greedy.
But he had a sweet mouth and was the closest to him. He knew he shouldn’t spoil him so much, but he still wanted to be good to the boy, and he had secretly decided in his mind that he would be the future heir to the Yao family.
Also because of Yao Zhenshu’s favor, Yao Han was always like an arrogant prince growing up.
“Grandpa, please don’t worry, if you give me Tulip International, I will make it a big success. I will live in that company twenty-four hours a day.” Yao Han said with some conviction.
“Even if you live in that company what is so good about that? It’s not going to work if you don’t have the business acumen.” Yao Zhenshu said helplessly.
Yao Han hurriedly shot a glance to his parents on the side.
Yao Han’s father, Yao Qin, stepped forward and said, “Father, why don’t you give Han a chance? He’s an adult now. He did have a few failures before. But I think he has also learned a lot from them.”
“Yes, Grandpa, I’m sure Han can make Tulip International a big success this time.”
Yao Yifang, one of Yao Han’s cousins, chimed in.
Since they all knew he was the most likely candidate for the next head of the family, the cousins who had little hope naturally wanted to compliment him. After all, they might need his help later.
Yao Zhenshu hesitated for a moment before finally saying.
“If you screw up Tulip International this time, you can’t blame your grandfather.”
Yao Han was very happy when he heard what he said. Tulip International had just signed a big deal. This order alone was enough for Tulip International to last for a few years, so he had nothing to worry about. In a few years, he might have become the head of the family.
Immediately, he assured, “Grandpa, please don’t worry. If anything goes wrong again, I would be too ashamed to show up in this family again.”
Yao Zhenshu dotingly patted the hand placed on his shoulder, and Yao Han immediately massaged harder.
At that moment, Yao Cen and Xiao Shun suddenly appeared in the doorway, and everyone in the room froze for a moment.
They didn’t have security at the mansion, after all, no one would barge in for no reason, and they knew the rules.
“Grandpa Zhenshu, I’m coming.”
This time Yao Cen came with several fancy boxes of supplements.
Even for the sake of these gifts, she hoped Yao Zhenshu would give up his idea on Tulip International.
But before Yao Zhenshu could say anything, Yao Han screamed, “Yao Cen, you are more and more like that punk. Don’t you understand our rules?”
Yao Han had already been insulted many times because of Xiao Shun, so he took direct aim at Xiao Shun.
“I’m willing to be punished if I can see Grandpa Zhenshu for a moment.” Yao Cen did not want to say anything to him, but as soon as she saw his arrogance she got inexplicably angry.
“Grandpa, she broke our rules…” said Yao Han.
Yao Zhenshu naturally knew what Yao Cen was here for. He had just taken away her right to run the business, and he knew that it wasn’t quite fair to her, so he didn’t chastise her.
“Yao Cen, I know why you are here. But i’ve decided, and i cannot change my decision as the head of the family.”
“As for the reason, I’m sure your parents have told you about it. Surely you don’t need me to tell you again?”
He said with a subconscious glance at Xiao Shun.
“Grandpa Zhenshu, Xiao Shun has been with us for three years. I know him well. He’s definitely not the kind of person you think he is.”
Yao Cen said.
Xiao Shun stepped aside and looked at her with surprise in his eyes. This was the first time she had spoken up for him.
“How do you know? Besides, he’s your husband, do you think what you say proves anything?”
Yao Han said aggressively, “We’ve been good enough to him without kicking him out right away, and besides, Grandpa already gave you Bluesky Decor. Don’t be so greedy!”
