Chapter 375: Chapter 219: Sorting Things Out (Part 2)
Taking a risk, if successful, would not only save his position but also crush the prestige of the Wen Family, making it highly likely for the Yang Family to surpass them someday. Old Sir Yang, knowing the insider details, would definitely be overjoyed, and it would be a done deal for Yang Songli to inherit the position.
Ye’er, some people’s thinking can’t be measured by common standards; in their eyes, crushing a member of the Six Great Families and taking their place is worth risking their life for, like Old Sir Yang, who is a typical example.
The Yang Family is exactly caught between the top forces and high-end powers, neither here nor there. Old Sir Yang spent his life sharpening his head to climb up, unfortunately, without success.
That’s why, in this world, those who can truly harm you are not usually your equals; those you underestimate, might exactly be the ones who could take your life. Last time, if it weren’t for Ye’er’s quick wits, his gamble might have actually won!"
Luo Ye pouted, "A crooked beam leads to askew lower beams. Big Brother, make sure Grandpa doesn’t show any mercy. Although what the eldest and the second eldest of the Yang Family do is unrelated, they are all from the Yang Family and are targeting the Wen Family. For this alone, they cannot be forgiven!"
"Don’t worry, Grandpa has never been soft," Wen Yan changed his tone, "Grandpa meant to divide three percent of the Wen Family’s shares to Ye’er and Feng’er, equal to the shares held by the younger generation of the Wen Family. He asked me to talk to Ye’er first, later Ye’er needs to sign some documents, Grandpa will send someone trustworthy to get Ye’er to sign."
Luo Ye quickly waved his hands, "Big Brother, tell Grandpa it’s not necessary. I have shares in Liangyou, and though Wenxin Garden is under my name, you will have full control, Brother. Of course, I’m not answering for you, you can discuss with him.
I understand Grandpa’s intention, he wants me and Brother to know that he treats us just the same as the younger generation of the Wen Family, and he also wants my mom to understand that he loves her and lets her let go of any grudges.
Grandpa’s gesture moves me a lot, but it’s really not necessary. I’m not afraid of taking responsibility. In fact, even without the shares, outsiders would still regard me and Brother as a part of the Wen Family, just differently positioned than Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister Coco, and Little Pumpkin."
Wen Yan smiled and waved his hand, "Grandpa’s decisions, especially these kinds, won’t change. Ye’er, accept it, your refusal will upset him."
Luo Ye outstretched her hand, "Alright then, Big Brother, give me yours too, I’ll keep them together."
"No!" Wen Yan slapped Luo Ye’s hand, "Thinking of sidelining your Big Brother, I’m not falling for that! Wow Ye’er, you did so great today, what gift do you want? Big Brother will get it for you!"
"I’m not lacking anything..." Luo Ye’s eyes spun, "How about telling me about the future Little Aunt? I’m really curious, how did someone win over Little Uncle in less than a month?"
Wen Yan tapped Luo Ye’s head, "You’re really nosy at such a young age, worried about what tricks the future Little Aunt might have used, right? Haven’t you thought, would Grandpa be easily fooled?"
"Hehe..." Luo Ye, caught in the act, looked embarrassed, "When it comes to our own people, it’s hard not to overthink, I’m not good at analyzing."
"The future Little Aunt is called Liang Hua Rui, she was Little Uncle’s junior during college, chased him for two years, and just as some spark emerged, Little Uncle went abroad to study, and they gradually lost contact.
After returning to the country, Little Uncle thought about looking for her, but at that time the Wen Family was at a low point, weighing his options, Little Uncle accepted Yu Miao, giving the Wen Family some buffering.
A month ago, Little Uncle attended a business event, and coincidentally Liang Hua Rui also accompanied her company’s boss, and what you see happened, their old feelings reignited. Addendum, Liang Hua Rui has never been married; for specifics, it involves personal privacy, and of course, I wouldn’t ask Little Uncle deeply."
"Destiny!" Luo Ye clicked her tongue, "Being pursued, Little Uncle really has endless charm! By the way, Big Brother, have you decided on your wife?"
Wen Yan poked Luo Ye’s forehead, "Be careful, worrying too much will give you wrinkles. Don’t worry, if I have someone in mind, you’ll be the first to know."
"Don’t always poke my head, what if you poke me silly?"
"Could you get any sillier?" Wen Yan stood up, "Ye’er, let’s have a practice session, let Big Brother see if you’ve improved."
"Sure!"
Just as the siblings took a few steps, they saw Jiang Zheng coming out accompanied by Wen Song, Wen Bai, Wen Tong, and Li Nianying. Luo Ye hurried forward, "Uncle Jiang, you’re not going back this late, are you?"
"Yes, I still have things to do tonight. Do you think Uncle Jiang has it as easy as you?" Jiang Zheng turned and looked at the Wen brothers, "Let Ye’er see me off."
"Alright, we won’t be polite with you!" knowing Jiang Zheng and Luo Ye’s relationship is not necessarily worse than theirs, Wen Song spoke on behalf of the brothers.
"Uncle Jiang, I’ll hold your bag." Luo Ye took the bag Jiang Zheng was tucking under his arm, said goodbye to the uncles, and accompanied Jiang Zheng toward the parking area.
Jiang Zheng put an arm around Luo Ye’s shoulder, "Ye’er, the upcoming training will be very tough. Ye told me your reason for entering Team A, Uncle Jiang is touched but also heartbroken. I really didn’t want you to endure this hardship. Have you thought it through?"
"Others can endure it, I must too. I want to be a qualified soldier under Uncle Jiang, I must!" Luo Ye’s tone was firm, showing her determination, Jiang Zheng no longer persuaded, and patted her head, "Uncle Jiang is proud of you!"
