Chen Jiamei looked at his adoptive father's stern expression and could not help but feel his legs go weak. His lips trembled. "I … I …" He stuttered for a long time but could not say a word.
To be honest …
The reason why she dared to play tricks behind his back, forcing the Tang Xiling to give up his assets, and even going to China to harm Mi Xaing 'er, was because she was certain that Chen Yaozhong was terminally ill and did not have the energy to care about the outside world. Otherwise, she would not have dared to play tricks under her father's nose.
The reason was obvious …
No matter how powerful she was, she was only 23 years old. Compared to Chen Yaozhong, who was skillful in the business world, her "skills" were simply too far apart.
Also …
The reason why outsiders gave her face was because she was going to be the successor of the Chen Group. They were all backed by money. If Chen Yaozhong wanted to deal with her, who would dare to? Pan? Jian Ke? Yi? Which Yi? Wan Tuo? Yi Hai Tuo? Hard up? Yi Hai Tuo Xi Tuo Xi Tuo Xi Tuo.
She would have nothing in the future?
Not only would she lose her money and noble status, but she might even lose her life?
How could she not be afraid?
How could her legs not be "floating"?
She immediately stepped forward and grabbed Chen Yaozhong's arm desperately. She wanted to make a final struggle. "Dad, did someone say something to you? No matter what it is? It's all fake. They are jealous of me! They slandered me behind my back! Don't you know what kind of person I am? For the past 20 years, you have doted on me. I can't wait to repay you. Why would I do something behind your back? "
Chen Yaozhong snorted coldly. "Oh? Is that so? "
"Of course! You are the greatest image in my heart. You are both my father and my role model. You dote on me, love me, take care of me … Do you think I don't feel that? Do you think I don't know how to be grateful? Let's not talk about other things. Ever since you fell ill, I stopped eating and running all over the world to look for famous doctors for you. I hope you can live a long life! I hope you can be healthy and stay by my side! "
"Shut up!"
Chen Yaozhong pushed her hand away, "Mei Xiang 'er, you want to deceive me? You're still too tender! I'll give you one last chance. Where have you been these days? "
"Egypt! What the hell … "
Before she could finish her words, her face received a big slap … Immediately, five big red and swollen handprints were left on her face.
Chen Jiamei did not even dare to fart. He covered his face and retreated to the side.
After all, Chen Jiaxuan still had some brotherly affection. She hurried to persuade him, "Dad, if you have something to say, let's talk it out. Don't be angry and harm your health!"
Chen Yaozhong did not even look at Chen Jiamei, as if there was no one in front of him. "Jiaxuan, I have a few things that you must do for me right now!"
Chen Jiaxuan bowed. "Please speak!"
"I've been preparing for the surgery a few days ago, so I didn't have time to care about other things. But now that the surgery is over, I feel refreshed. There are some things that need to be arranged!"
"Yes!"
"First, I must apply for a visa to go to China as soon as possible!"
"Dad, isn't Auntie Tang already here? Besides, you're not in good health now. "
Chen Yaozhong's hands on the wheelchair were clenched into fists. Although his face was calm, his knuckles were white because of the force he exerted, revealing his inner struggle. "I want to go back while I'm still alive! First, I want to see my hometown. Second, I want to see Mi Xaing 'er! She can't come out to see me. Perhaps, in addition to various objective reasons, she probably blames me in her heart! Blames me for making her and her mother wait for 20 years. Blames me for not fulfilling my responsibility as a father! "
Chen Jiaxuan was considerate and comforted him softly, "Dad, Mi Xaing 'er is not that kind of person. Before I came back to the US, she had already made it clear to me that it was because the child was too young, and there was also her husband … She asked me to explain it to you."
After a pause, he continued, "How about this? I'll apply for a visa for her now! Together with the child! As for her husband? I'm afraid it'll be a little difficult. There are rules in the mainland that military personnel are not allowed to go abroad! "
Chen Yaozhong nodded. "That's good too! Let's prepare for both eventualities! What if … I really can't go back? Maybe she'll come out to see me because we're related by blood? "
His words were heart-wrenching.
Chen Jiaxuan didn't know how to comfort him. She silently lowered her head.
The ward was silent for two seconds. Chen Yaozhong took a deep breath and continued, "The second thing is that you have to arrange for me to register my marriage with Tang Xiling as soon as possible. That way, she can rightfully inherit all my assets!"
His gaze swept over to Chen Jiamei, seemingly unintentionally. There was a disdainful sneer at the corner of his mouth. "Tang Xiling is my wife, not only psychologically, but also legally! She will always be my woman! "
He waved his large hand in the air, looking particularly domineering. "If anyone dares to have designs on my wife, or dares to bully Tang Xiling, I will not be merciful! Before I die, I must get rid of that person and bury him under my coffin so that he will never be able to rise again! Anyway, my hands are stained with blood, and I owe countless lives. One more won't make a difference! "
Although his voice wasn't loud, his tone was absolutely resolute … His articulation was perfect, making people shudder.
Chen Jiamei stood by the wall with her head lowered … Her expression couldn't be seen. Only her rapidly rising and falling chest revealed her fear.
Chen Yaozhong didn't even look at her. He continued, "Jiaxuan, not only do I want to register my marriage with Tang Xiling, but I also want to give her the grandest wedding ever! I want to invite all the famous people in Hua Fu and formally introduce my wife to them! Also, bring all the major shareholders of the Chen Group and introduce them to the next chairman! "
"Ah?"
Chen Jiaxuan was stunned. "Dad, you mean …"
Chen Yaozhong cut off all means of retreat. "What I mean is very simple. I'm sick now, and I have no time to take care of the company's business. Therefore, I'm willing to give up my position. In the future, the management of the company will be led by Tang Xiling, and all the decisions will be made by her. I'll retreat behind the scenes and fully support her. I'll teach her step by step to ensure the company's smooth transition and not fall into the hands of outsiders! While I'm still capable, if anyone dares to say no to her, I'll get rid of them immediately! There's no room for negotiation! "
Oh my!
How domineering!
When Chen Jiamei heard this, she felt as if a few trains had run through her head.
If it was a battle for the inheritance, she might have a chance to take over. After all, the company's founding members were prejudiced by first impressions and had already leaned towards Chen Jiamei … just like Lawyer Li!
However …
If Chen Yaozhong had supported Tang Xiling to take over the position of chairman while he was still alive, gotten rid of dissidents for his wife in the company, and cultivated power for his lover … then things would be different. Under Chen Yaozhong's influence, Tang Xiling would gradually gain people's recognition. Her wings would become stronger and stronger, and Chen Jiamei would forever lose her chance of winning.
Chen Yaozhong's eyes flashed with wisdom. "Jiaxuan, go and find a lawyer immediately and start handling all the legal matters!"
Chen Jiaxuan nodded. "Okay, I'll go and inform Lawyer Li now."
“no！ Don't look for Louis Lee! I've already sent someone to sue him at the lawyer's association! His crime is: divulging the client's secrets! Stealing the client's money! His license will be revoked immediately! "
Chen Yaozhong raised his eyebrows and sneered. "Old Li values reputation the most in his life. I'll let him have his reputation ruined! I'll let his scandal appear in the newspapers tomorrow! As for the money he wants? Not only will he not get a single cent, but he'll also have to pay for my legal fees! He wants to steal from me? In his dreams! "
The older, the wiser.
Although Chen Yaozhong didn't say anything and was also ill, he knew in his heart … His moves were ruthless and swift, and in a short while, the other party didn't even have the strength to fight back.
But …
After all, he was also human, and humans had feelings.
Chen Yaozhong could pursue and beat up the lawyer, but when it came to this adopted daughter in front of him, he was like a stone that he had held in his arms for 20 years … Even if she was a cold piece of ice, in his heart, there was still some warmth. He really couldn't bear to throw her directly into a cesspool.
He pondered for a while. "Mei Xiang, you've been with me for 20 years. You're my father for 20 years. Even if you've done some things that didn't cause any serious consequences … you still can't be forgiven! From now on, our father-daughter relationship is over! Tomorrow, I'll announce that we're no longer related to each other! "
Huh?
She was no longer related to each other?
This was what Chen Jiamei was most afraid of!
If she lost the Chen surname, to be honest, what would she have left?
She was used to having everything ready for her. Suddenly, she was chased out of the house. How was she going to live in the future?
Chen Jiamei immediately threw herself at her adoptive father's feet. She knelt down and cried, "Dad, you can't do this to me! I … I didn't do anything wrong! You listened to other people's slanderous words and misunderstood me! "
Chen Jiaxuan interrupted her sternly, "Shut up! You're still saying such things even now. You deserve to die! If it weren't for the fact that we're father and daughter, based on my temper, I would have thrown you to the fishes a long time ago! "
As soon as he finished speaking …
He clapped his hands twice with all his might.
Almost immediately, the door opened and four burly black men rushed in. They looked like four gorillas with cold eyes.
Chen Jiamei turned around in a panic. She seemed to have a premonition that her end was near. Her face was pale, and there was some fear in her eyes. Her hands started to tremble. "Dad, who … who are they? What … what do you want? "
