âGrandpa, why are you so biased towards Zhuang Liu? Iâve done so much for the Zhuang family. Donât you see that?â Zhuang Che shouted at the top of his lungs, âZhuang Liu hasnât been back for so many years. He hasnât fulfilled his duty as a grandson at all. My father and I have been by your side all this time, asking about your well-being. Ask yourself, who is better to you?!â
Old Master Zhuang said sternly, âIt doesnât matter whether youâve treated me well or not. Iâve seen what youâve done all these years. Itâs not that I lack someone to take care of me. What I lack is someone who can take on the entire Zhuang family!â
Zhuang Che was still not convinced. âIâve also achieved a lot. You canât pretend that you didnât see it!â
âSince youâre not convinced, then Iâll let you see the gap between you and Xiao Liu.â Old Master Zhuang got someone to turn on the big screen. On it were the profits of the companies under Zhuang Liu and Zhuang Cheâs jurisdiction over the past few years.
The revenue was calculated using a bar chart. One was the companyâs business area distribution chart, and the other was the companyâs revenue chart.
Zhuang Cheâs businesses were all traditional industries. The profits were considerable, but there was not much of a breakthrough. Not only did Zhuang Liu invest in traditional industries, but he also invested in many emerging high-tech industries. His total income was ten times that of Zhuang Cheâs.
âCan you see the difference? How do you think you did?â Old Master Zhuang asked Zhuang Che.
âIâ¦â Zhuang Che was so agitated that he accidentally choked on his saliva when he was talking. The people beside him quickly brought him some water.
Zhuang Che took a few sips to ease his coughing. Suddenly, he scolded, âIâm not convinced. You old fart, you only know how to favor that dog Zhuang Liu. If I knew you were so biased, I would have poisoned him to death instead of crippling him!â
He seemed to have gone crazy as he pulled the microphone and shouted, âLet me tell you, the position of the head of the Zhuang family must be mine. If Zhuang Liu dares to snatch it from me, I will poison him into a vegetative state again. Just like his vegetative father, he will have to rely on machines to survive until the rest of his life!â
Zhuang Cheâs words caused an uproar. So Zhuang Che was the one who poisoned Zhuang Liu. From his tone, it seemed like he was the one who poisoned Zhuang Yan.
âYou bastard, what nonsense are you talking about?â Third Uncle Zhuang broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly ran over and pulled Zhuang Che down. âIâm sorry. My son drank too much and went crazy. Donât mind what he said.â
Zhuang Che knew that he should not have said those words, but his mouth was not listening to him. He was saying whatever was on his mind.
âYouâre the one who drank too much. I wonât get drunk no matter how much 1 drink!â Zhuang Che pushed his father away. âI must make this clear today!â
He was standing on the stage, and his father was standing at the side. Half of his feet were hanging in the air, and he fell to the ground after being pushed by him.
However, Zhuang Che did not go over to help his father up. He continued to ask into the microphone, âYou old fart. Why should 1 leave the Zhuang familyâs benefits to your grandson When your son took over the position of the head of the family, you said that the head of the family was going to pass it on to the eldest son. Now that youâre picking an heir from your grandson, why donât you pass the position of the family head to me, the eldest grandson?â
Old Master Zhuang stared at Zhuang Che without saying a word.
The people around him could not stand it anymore and wanted to pull Zhuang Che off the stage. However, Zhuang Che was like a stubborn bison and did not move at all.
Tan Rou crossed her arms and watched the show. She had originally planned to let Zhuang Liu pass the food to Zhuang Che, but she was worried that Zhuang Che would not drink the food Zhuang Liu gave him, so she changed the person.
When Zhuang Cheâs assistant was looking for water, she thoughtfully gave Zhuang Che a glass of warm water. Coincidentally, Zhuang Che finished the water in one gulp, saving her a lot of trouble.
âWhy did Zhuang Che expose everything he did?â Tao Zhi was very puzzled. âIs he possessed?â
âNot really. I just added something to the water I gave him just now,â Tan Rou whispered.
Tao Zhi was shocked. âDonât tell me itâs a medicine that makes him tell the truth after taking it?â
Tan Rou replied, âNot only will they tell the truth, but they will also become very irritable.â
Tao Zhi looked at Zhuang Che, who was spitting out saliva, and understood what Tan Rou meant..
