If he chose not to fight, Xue Chuan was afraid that the old man would think that he was unable to protect the interests of the family and would be indifferent to family ties.
If he chose to fight, Xue Chuan was afraid that the old man would think that he lacked the big picture.
Xue Chuan believed that now that Xue Tianyi was gone, Xue Gang's position as the family's successor would probably be lost. The next step would be for him. However, it was not certain yet, so he had to be careful in everything. He could not slack off or be careless.
Seeing that Xue Chuan was silent, the old man was somewhat unhappy. His tone became slightly heavier as he said, "What's wrong? You don't even dare to speak casually now. Are you afraid that it will affect your position as the family head?"
Xue Chuan was shocked by the old man's words and hurriedly said, "Father, don't think too much. I just feel that this matter is of great importance. I have to think more before making a decision. I cannot be reckless."
"Mm." The old man looked at Xue Chuan. It was unknown whether his eyes were filled with praise or disappointment, but he did not show the slightest bit of strangeness. "Xue Chuan, you have a calm and collected personality. Logically speaking, you are also suited to be the family head. However, your personality is too gloomy and cold. Sometimes, being too straightforward is not a good thing. Being too hot-tempered is also not a good thing. It is good to be a little scheming, but if you are too scheming, it is not a good thing. Because others will be on guard against you, afraid of you, avoiding you, and distrusting you. This is a great taboo for a family head. "
Xue Chuan hurriedly said, "I understand."
"Mm, you understand, but you can't change it. Sigh, logically speaking, your eldest brother is indeed a good candidate to inherit this position, but something like this happened to his son. If he becomes the family head, it is hard to guarantee that he will not pass the position to his son in the future. Letting a person who can't even walk become the family head of our Xue family is probably not a good idea. "
Xue Chuan was silent. He could not say whether he was right or wrong, so he could only remain silent.
Old man Xue continued, "In comparison, your third brother is too impatient. This is only one of the reasons. Secondly, your third brother has three sons, but all of them are good-for-nothings. He doesn't teach his sons well, so if the clan is handed over to his three sons in the future, it would be better to hand it over to the eldest son. This is the second point. Your third brother doesn't have much interest in the position of the patriarch. His greatest interest is in the army. Moreover, our Xue family does need someone to hold power in the army. Only in this way can we ensure our family's status. This is the third reason. "
Xue Chuan's heart had already begun to secretly rejoice.
Old Master Xue said, "Therefore, no matter how you look at it, you are the most suitable candidate. The position of Patriarch belongs to you."
Xue Chuan knelt on the ground with a thud and said in a trembling voice: "Father, I promise to treat Big Brother well, treat all of our relatives well, and I will definitely make the entire Xue family flourish."
Old Master Xue nodded and said, "But don't be too happy too early. I haven't made up my mind yet. You have a son and a daughter. If you inherit my position, the future Patriarch of the Xue family must be inherited by your son. But I have to make sure that your son will not be like the three sons of your third brother. Only then can I be assured to hand the position of Patriarch to you. "
Xue Chuan said repeatedly, "I will educate my son well."
"Yes, you must educate him well. Therefore, I will give you a few years. In the next few years, the position of the Patriarch will not be handed over to any of you. After a few years, if I think your child is good enough, then this position will belong to you. "
Xue Chuan was so excited that he kept kowtowing. "Thank you, father. Thank you, father."
"Get up." Old Master Xue said tiredly.
"Yes, father." Xue Chuan stood up.
Old Master Xue said, "Now you can be at ease and speak boldly. What do you think? How should we solve the matter of your nephew? Should we do something to Xiao Bing?"
Xue Chuan thought carefully and said, "Father, I think we have to do something about this matter. Otherwise, the Xue family will be slapped in the face. Our prestige will definitely be reduced, and we will be laughed at by the other three families."
"Yes." Old Master Xue nodded.
Xue Chuan continued, "On the other hand, now that Xiao Bing has fallen out with our Xue Family, there is no possibility of reconciliation at all. Xiao Bing is very powerful. Although he may not pose a threat to our Xue Family, if there is a poisonous snake eyeing our Xue Family at any time, it will be trouble after all. Moreover, this poisonous snake may be used by the other three families in the future. Then it will be even more troublesome. In this case, it is better to take advantage of this opportunity to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. "
"Good!" Old Master Xue said, "You didn't let me down this time. In fact, the last point you said is the most important. We can't let a poisonous snake eyeing us all the time. They will be a big problem sooner or later, so the best way is to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots."
Xue Chuan said, "If we want to do something, we have to do it quickly. Even a cornered dog will jump over a wall. Xiao Bing is so powerful. Since father said not to provoke him, then there must be a reason not to provoke him. So if we don't provoke him, we better not provoke him easily. Otherwise, we have to be able to kill him with one blow."
"You're right." Old Master Xue said, "And we have to rely on the power of the country. Xiao Bing is in the Celestial Master Realm, which is far beyond ordinary warriors. Even our Xue family can be easily killed if he wants to. But if he really does so, he will be the enemy of the whole country."
Although Xue Chuan already knew that Xiao Bing was very powerful, he was still shocked after hearing his father's words. He said with great surprise, "Is he that powerful?"
Old Master Xue said, "He is more powerful than you think. Otherwise, with the power of our Xue family, why would I be so afraid of him? Hmph, no matter how powerful he is, now that he has provoked our Xue family, he must die. The more powerful he is, the more we have to kill him. Otherwise, the Xue family will die in his hands sooner or later. Help me arrange this matter and use the police to arrest him. If he is arrested, then I will inform the higher-ups and ask Dragon Teeth to do it! "
"Good!"
Old Master Xue said, "You can leave first."
Xue Chuan bowed deeply and left respectfully. As he walked, he said, "Father, have a good rest and take care of yourself."
After Xue Chuan left, Old Master Xue frowned slightly and sighed. He said, "This Xue Chuan is too scheming. Unfortunately, he is the only one who is suitable for this position. He may not be the best, but he is the most suitable. Alas … Xiao Bing, Xiao Bing … This is a person who could even kill Wei Sihai. I accidentally came into contact with Wei Sihai, who had been living in seclusion for many years. This time, I thought I could use him to get rid of Xiao Bing. I didn't expect … Wei Sihai, this incompetent guy. I used to think too highly of him. "
Old Master Xue seemed to be a little tired. He closed his eyes and fell asleep directly.
The next morning, Xiao Bing received a call from the front desk, saying that someone was coming to pick him up. Xiao Bing guessed that it was someone from Monitor's side, so he got dressed and went downstairs. As expected, a man in military uniform was waiting for him. After seeing Xiao Bing, he immediately gave a military salute and said, "I am a guard captain under the old director. The old director asked me to pick you up."
"Let's go." Xiao Bing smiled. "Sorry to trouble you."
"No trouble at all."
Xiao Bing got into his bulletproof car and drove all the way to the National Security Agency. Then Xiao Bing got off the car and went all the way to Monitor's office. When he entered, Monitor was still smoking in the office.
Xiao Bing said, "Monitor, what can I do for you?"
Monitor looked up and saw Xiao Bing coming in. He pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Close the door and sit down."
Xiao Bing closed the door and sat down on the sofa. Then he said, "Monitor, if you have something to say, just say it. I'm busy."
"Busy? Busy with what? You can't go anywhere except Jingdu now. Believe it or not, as long as you go to the airport or the station, the Xue family will immediately take action and use any means to keep you here. "
Xiao Bing said disdainfully, "Can they keep me here with their little ability?"
Monitor snorted and said, "Yes, you have great ability and good means, but they are aboveboard. You broke Xue Tianyi's two legs. They should let the police arrest you, right?"
Xiao Bing said, "Xue Tianyi raped me. Why don't they arrest him?"
Monitor sighed and said, "What's the point of arguing with a top rich family? In short, if someone really comes to arrest you, you can resist or not. If you resist, you will resist arrest. I guess it is just in line with the Xue family's plan. If you don't resist, once you are arrested and put in prison, everything will be beyond your control."
Xiao Bing wanted to refute, but Monitor said with a smile, "Don't rush to argue with me. Let me show you something."
Monitor took out the key and opened a drawer. Then he took out a certificate and threw it on the table. He said, "Have a look."
Xiao Bing walked over, picked it up and glanced at it. Then his eyes sparkled with joy. He said excitedly, "So fast? Now it belongs to me? "
"Of course it belongs to you." Monitor smiled and said, "I have said that the country has authorized you to have the rank of lieutenant general, but there are some resistance from the top. But the chief said that as long as your strength can surpass the Void-breaking level, the rank of lieutenant general will be immediately awarded to you. I didn't expect that you really worked hard and achieved it so quickly. To be honest, I thought you would at least be 40 years old before you could get the military certificate of lieutenant general. Even so, it is already fast. That is a lieutenant general, already a senior general! "
Xiao Bing put it in his arms like a treasure and said excitedly, "Great, great, I didn't think I would have the opportunity to get this. Monitor, thank you so much."
Monitor waved his hand and said, "You won it yourself. Why are you thanking me?"
Xiao Bing looked at Monitor and said, "Do you think I don't understand? Even if they promised to grant me the rank of Lieutenant General after I break through to the Celestial Master level, a Lieutenant General is considered a very high-level general in Cathaysian State. This is a big deal. How can it be so fast? And everything happened so coincidentally. After I offended the Xue family, I immediately got the rank of lieutenant general. Monitor, you have helped me torment the top a lot. You are helping me to increase the weight against the Xue family! "
Monitor did not want to mention this, but now that Xiao Bing took the initiative to say it, Monitor did not hide it. He smiled and said, "I have known that you are not easy to deal with since you were a child. I remember the first time I saw you, how old were you? At that time, you were still in junior high school. You were fighting with a group of gangsters outside the school. You were fighting with so many people alone. You were beaten black and blue, but you were not afraid. At that time, I knew that taking you away might be the biggest mistake in my life, because I will constantly wipe your ass in the future! "
After Monitor finished speaking, he laughed out loud. Monitor and Xiao Bing looked at each other and laughed.
After laughing, Xiao Bing looked at Monitor seriously and said with some excitement, "Since you took me away, Monitor, I have regarded you as my family in this world, as my father!"
Hearing this, Monitor's eyes turned red and a little wet. At the same time, he scolded, "You brat, why are you so sour? Are you playing emotional games with me? Let me tell you, even if the Xue family is one of the four big families, they can't bully you. If you are bullied by the Xue family, don't say that you know me in the future. I can't afford to lose my face! "
