t.Gu Jianxi, single-handedly against two people, was not at a disadvantage. Out of necessity, another bodyguard came out from inside the house and then contacted several other individuals who were bot...Don't be fooled by his nonchalant and carefree demeanor, that swagger hides a racing heart. This "strategic retreat" is a dangerous gambit; if the old lady doesn't take the bait, he's toast!
Well, the last things he said really hit the old woman's sore spot and scared her.
"Hold on!"
Old Mrs. He was a little flustered and hurriedly opened her mouth.
The old woman was set in her ways. On the surface, she seemed arrogant and shrewd, but that was because she had confidence and relied on her children and grandchildren. Even if she made a mistake, it wasn't a big deal to her. In general, nothing around her seemed important enough to require immediate attention, so she could afford to ponder things carefully. But now, with several of her reliable children and grandchildren arrested, she felt like she had lost her anchor. Whether she was thinking about anything, it always felt unsteady. Furthermore, time was so tight that she didn't have a moment to breathe. Rong Qinkeng was now her biggest hope. If he really abandoned her, she would be finished!
She absolutely cannot allow this to happen.
So, we absolutely can't let Rong Qikeng leave!
“Qi Keng, why are you so anxious Grandmother didn't say she wouldn't agree. Come back and sit with me first. You have to give Grandmother some time to think it over properly. This involves so many business matters, we can't just discard them after a short while!”
Rong Qi's large strides came to a halt. He didn't immediately walk back, but stood there for a while, showing signs of hesitation and contemplation. Only after Old Lady He urged him again did he turn around with an impassive expression and sit back down.
The trusted servant, A-Mei, who had received a signal from Old Mrs. He, had quietly gone away. She was going to call for He Ya. After a while, He Ya came over with her pregnant belly. Upon seeing Rong Qikeng, she broke into a sweet smile. Rong Qikeng still had a bit of fondness for He Ya. After all, the woman was beautiful. Initially, she had shown great affection for him, swearing undying love, "Not you, not anyone else," and even giving him her virginity. She willingly became his lover as the heiress of the He family. Her devotion always made him feel proud and valued. Besides, her pregnancy was a blessing - twins, both boys! Although he had fleeting thoughts of getting rid of them when he felt irritable, he hadn't taken any action yet, so he couldn't help but feel a mix of pride and happiness. And right now, even if he had to pretend, he had to put on a good show!
So, his complexion eased considerably all at once, and even a faint smile appeared on his lips.
Seeing this, Old Mrs. He felt relieved. Without a word, He Ya, having received her mother's hint, sat down affectionately on Rong Qikeng's lap, happily talking about the two children in her belly, as well as her recent feelings and state as a pregnant woman. It was mostly talk about the joys and sorrows of family life. Rong Qikeng pretended to listen attentively, occasionally chiming in with He Ya's words, showing the image of a loving fiance, a soon-to-be father, a good lover, and a good father.
While he was distracted by He Ya, the old woman hurriedly concentrated and thought deeply before replying. She agreed to sacrifice most of the cooperation content, keeping just a little bit as a remembrance for her family, after all, they still had to eat. But at the same time, she put forward a condition, requiring Rong Qikeng to transfer one percent of Rong's shares to the two boys He Ya was carrying.
Young Rong Qinkeng had some shares of the Rong family in his possession. He also had two remarkable parents, and in the future, those two's shares would most likely go to Rong Qinkeng. Therefore, all things considered, he would have a considerable amount of shares. The old woman calculated very shrewdly, thinking to herself, "This written contract is signed. No matter how much loss the He family suffers this time, as long as these two good grandsons are around, the He family will definitely not lose its foundation."
She also thought about Rong Qikeng's parents, both of whom were remarkable people. She figured they could still secure Rong Qikeng's position as the head of the household, so she should help him.
When Rong Qikeng heard what Old Mrs. Rong was asking for, he felt a knot in his stomach. He hated it when people meddled with his things. The Rong family's assets were spread across the globe, and one percent of the shares shouldn't be underestimated. To be honest, it wasn't just about "gold content," but more like "diamond content." Old Mrs. Rong wanted eight out of ten shares right off the bat. She was really opening her mouth wide! Although he was the head of the Rong family and the president of Yadong Group, it was an appointed position. More than half of Yadong's shares were owned by the entire clan, with a dedicated team overseeing them. Nobody could move them. The head of the family had the advantage of buying a certain number of newly issued shares first, but what he could actually get his hands on was still limited. He relied on some that his mother gave him, and the ones he had bought gradually over the past twenty years. Altogether, it was less than two percent! Giving out one percent would drain most of his holdings - no way!
"Too much!" He frowned deeply. "I only have this much on hand, and I've already given it all out. If I do this, it will be very inconvenient for me to work!"
Grandma He didn't believe it!
He Ya doesn't believe it either!
He Ya's heart itched like a cat's claw. She was carrying two children in her belly, more precious than gold. Even before they were born, these two little ones already had as much shares in the He family business as possible. If they could get even a small share from the Rong family, then she, as their mother, would rise in status through them. The rest of her life, she wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing!
So, she had to stand on the old woman's side and try her best to get Rong Qikeng to agree to this condition.
She pondered for a moment, then stroked Rong Qinkeng's chest, whispering coquettishly.
"Grandma did this, I think she's not really serious about wanting our shares. She just wants to feel at ease. You give up the shares, you get some benefits, but what about our sons Our sons', aren't they yours Yours, in the end, won't it all go to the sons anyway Qiang, I think you should agree!"
As she spoke, her soft hand teased its way across his chest, lightly circling the sensitive area with unseen strokes.
Tenderness can easily make men lose their senses. But she chose the wrong target!
This woman's eyes are money-grubbing!
Kong Chih hummed coldly in his heart, growing tired of He Ya. A lover was inferior to a wife; she was nothing but plaything, coming and going as he pleased. Thus, towards He Ya, he had always been casual, saying good when it suited him, bad when it didn't.
When it came to lying, he was a natural. So he feigned agreement with her request, but even then, he was still uncomfortable.
"You think I don't know these things It's not that I don't want to give them, it's just that I don't have much to spare. I've already given out what little I had. What if there's an emergency later on Then I won't be able to get anything done. This is for the greater good!"
He Ya listened and found some reason in it, but she was still unwilling deep down. Grandmother He naturally wouldn't agree either. She wouldn't let herself work for nothing unless the sun rose in the west. So, she and Rong Qikeng reached an agreement, with He Ya, who thought herself clever, acting as a self-proclaimed mediator between them. In the end, they settled on a final plan: Rong Qikeng would give up 0.7% of his shares, and the He family would cooperate.
He could be considered successful. Rong Qikeng feigned politeness with He Ya for a while, ignoring the hints she dropped; he had no interest in the playful game she proposed. He chose to leave last. The moment he sat in his car, he started cursing under his breath; as soon as he drove out of the He family's gate, his face turned gloomy.
To sign a contract in black and white, what on earth was Old Mrs. He thinking!
He had always been the one taking advantage of others, how could he allow anyone to take advantage of him The old woman thought she was clever, but the premise of her promise was that he remained in his position. Once he was removed from that position, even if it was in black and white, what could they do about it! Fortunately, the internal affairs of the Rong family were always kept secret, and outsiders knew very little. The old woman still thought he could keep his position, but she didn't know that this time, involving Rong Sanbo would inevitably lead to him leaving that position. So, towards the He family, he hated them with all his being. If it wasn't for them, he wouldn't have been implicated. Without being implicated, with just his subtle maneuvering, in two years, he could have brought Rong Sanbo down, and then, he would have nothing to worry about.
How could the He family have wronged him so badly, and he would even send them money in return Ha, a joke! How is that even possible!
Let the old woman be happy with that white paper and black words!
Then, some of them will cry. Just like he is now. He has to make the Ho family taste what they have done to him one by one.
How could Old Madam He even vaguely threaten him She was simply overreaching!
She thought that by holding onto these little secrets about Rong Sanbo, which she had acquired because of him, she could force him to submit, make him do everything in his power to help the He family, and ultimately bring them unparalleled glory!
Well, he's going to step down from that position anyway. Offending Rong Sanbo once is an offense, so offending him a second time wouldn't be much different. He has already made his stance clear in front of his parents, and they should believe him by now. Through his parents, the elders in the clan will probably also believe him. If the He family tries to make a fuss about this, he can simply throw the dirty water back at them. He just needs—for the He family to actually have the guts to do that!
Playing it safe!
According to his observations, the He family was nothing special and not worth worrying about.
Thinking this way, his heart felt a little better.
Some people from the He family may feel uncomfortable.
The old woman ate alone as if she had no taste for it, and gave all the good things to He Ya. After all, He Ya was about to get married, and she was a granddaughter who was “a daughter married out, water spilled,” which made the other women in the He family feel very uncomfortable. The old woman’s heart was too biased, wasn't it In this family, there were not only He Ya as a junior, but also so many sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren. You gave all those good things to He Ya and her child in her belly, wouldn't the daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law of the He family feel resentful What good would their own families get then!
And, the old woman is too dictatorial! She just wiped out all business deals with the Rong family without even discussing it with them. She completely treated them like furniture. Besides, those collaborative businesses were initially invested in with a lot of money. This money wasn't owned by the old woman alone; each family contributed significantly. Now that these businesses are losing money, He Family is left to bear the burden. The old woman isn't affected at all. She is the matriarch; no matter what happens to this family, she will always be well-provided for. As a senior citizen about to pass away, her personal expenses are not substantial. But what about those daughters-in-law in their prime and young girls Their daily needs – food, clothing, shelter, and transportation – all require money. With the businesses in the red, this will directly lead to a significant decline in their quality of life.
There was murmur at home, and the dissatisfaction grew bigger and bigger. Several daughters-in-law gathered in front of the old woman, beating around the bush about this matter, but they were scolded by the old woman shamelessly.
"I'm not senile yet, I know what's going on at home very well. If you have any ability, come up with a solution for me, don't just stare at one thing all day!"
If they could come up with a solution, they wouldn't be so passive!
Several daughters-in-law were unhappy in their hearts. The family had fallen to this state, who could blame Who made the old woman so fond of Rong Jia, Rong Qikeng It was all because He Ya was pregnant with his child. He really treated himself as his grandson-in-law, linking most of He Family's business with Rong Family.
This egg, it has always been said that you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket. So, if this basket falls, these large eggs won't necessarily suffer the same fate!
Several daughters-in-law came out of the old woman's room and huddled together in private. Their complaints grew even louder, and each of them started plotting. They all had the same thought: it seemed like they needed to keep the rest of the money close and not let it be easily swindled away!
Of course, the current minor conflicts are just sparks. But given the right opportunity, those sparks can ignite a wildfire. Under the turmoil of He Matriarch and the machinations of those with ulterior motives, the He family descending into chaos is inevitable. And today, all this women's forbearance will inevitably erupt!
So-called cause and effect is actually this way!
As for He Ya, although her family members didn't show much change on the surface, in reality, they cared more about her than they did about what Old Mrs. He thought. Money has an evil magic; it can even turn brothers against each other, let alone these unrelated sisters-in-law! Now that this involves huge profits, how could those family members not have thoughts about it!
So, when things spiraled out of control and He Jia, this always arrogant and spoiled princess, finally met her downfall, only then did her family show such coldness, even resorting to insults and threats, wishing they could skin her alive!
This is the He family!
He family members are intrinsically selfish and despicable!
When disaster strikes, I wish I could fly away!
And he drew all this out, a mere dream, with only a faint smile.
A true gentleman takes his revenge; ten years is not too long.
And she, has always been strong! name for himself, so he followed suit like Ruan Chengyi and focused on Fang Kun. Otherwise, such a detailed investigation wouldn't have been possible in such a short time!""Well, you make a good poin...
