Chapter 168.1 [Extra five]
Editor: Jodi
Lin An Lan finally met with Cheng Yu’s relatives.
Cheng Xiao sat aside, with a stern face and a not so good expression.
And Cheng Yu’s cousin Cheng Hao, seeing this, walked over to instigate, “Grandpa, does he really plan to marry this man? I saw it online before but only thought he was just fooling around. I didn’t expect he would bring him home. This is simply embarrassing our Cheng family.”
Cheng Xiao turned to look at him.
Cheng Hao continued, “If you ask me, how can he represent our Cheng family in the future like this? He should be removed from the board of directors and replaced with someone reliable.”
“But who’s reliable?” Cheng Xiao asked deliberately.
Cheng Hao replied hurriedly, “My big brother is reliable, at least much more reliable than Cheng Yu. I know you care about the face of the Yu family, but with their grandson doing such shameful things, can they blame you for kicking him out?”
Cheng Xiao nodded, then grabbing his cane from the side, suddenly hit Cheng Hao who was still smug, causing him to yell out, attracting the attention of the others.
Cheng Xiao hit him several times fiercely until he was held back by Cheng Feng, “Dad, what are you doing?!”
“Get out!” Cheng Xiao said to Cheng Hao, “Don’t bother coming to see me this year!”
Cheng Hao’s father hurried over, “Dad, what’s going on? Xiao Hao, what did you do to make your grandfather angry?”
Cheng Xiao snorted coldly, “Get out as well. You can’t even discipline your own son. Do still need me to do even this for you?!”
He looked at the familiar faces in front of him and said coldly, “The Cheng family has always spoken with ability. If you don’t have the ability, then don’t talk behind others’ backs. Do I need to teach you this principle?”
And with that, he turned and walked towards the stairs.
Cheng Feng moved to follow him, but he stopped him with a raise of his hand, “Don’t worry about me, go deal with them.”
And as he went up the stairs, Lin An Lan looked at Cheng Yu, puzzled, “What’s wrong with your grandfather? Why is he so angry?”
This was the first time he had seen Cheng Xiao hit someone. Even when he had been facing him, even though he had been angry and had had a bad tone, he had never gotten physical.
Laughing a little, Cheng Yu said softly, “I don’t know either, let me go find out for you.”
Then after saying this, he took Lin An Lan upstairs, asked him to wait for him in the bedroom, then went to Cheng Xiao’s study.
Cheng Xiao was just about to practice calligraphy to calm himself down when he saw his grandson come in.
“What are you here for?”
“You suddenly got so angry, I came to see.” Then walking over to him, Cheng Yu asked him, “Is it related to me?”
The moment Cheng Xiao heard this, he dropped his brush, “Look at this, it’s because you insisted on bringing him along. Now look, even your own brother looks down on you and wants me to kick you out.”
Cheng Yu sneered, “Do I care about him?”
He continued indifferently, “With how foolish he is, if he looks up to me, then I should really reflect on myself.”
Cheng Xiao frowned when he heard him say this about his own brother, but then considering what the other had just said, he felt that the other was indeed quite foolish.
He might not be satisfied with Cheng Yu wanting to marry Lin An Lan, and he might even consider passing the inheritance of the Cheng family to someone else, but it could only be him. No matter what the others thought about what was going on with Cheng Yu, they couldn’t say it out loud!
Much less try to sow discord in front of him!
Of course Cheng Xiao knew that it would be inevitable that there would be jealousy and resentment among the younger generation as Cheng Yu had been raised by him since birth and treated as the heir as he was the child born from Cheng Feng’s marriage with Yu Hanshuang. However no matter what, Cheng Yu was the grandson he was proud of the most. He could be dissatisfied with him, but what right did the others have to be dissatisfied with him?
If they had the ability, then they should also achieve something! If they didn’t have it, then they shouldn’t covet things that didn’t belong to them!
Thinking this way, Cheng Xiao frowned.
He had previously wanted Cheng Yu to adopt a child from his uncles and aunts as his own, but now it seemed inappropriate.
Not to mention that Cheng Feng wouldn’t agree, those uncles and aunts themselves were still alive, and their sons and daughters were still alive.
So when that particular child grew up, there would inevitably be conflicts.
He sighed, “Alright, you can go out. You don’t care about anything now, just Lin An Lan, so there’s no point in me telling you these things.”
Cheng Yu smiled when he heard this, his tone softening in a rare instance towards him, “I care about you too. You’re old now, so I hope you can be less angry and take care of yourself. Don’t get angry over such trivial matters.”
Cheng Xiao didn’t believe his nonsense, “In these two years, who else besides you has dared to make me angry? Now that you’ve grown up and have power, you’ve learned to seize power too. That little son of the Yu family has taught you well.”
“My brother has indeed taught me a lot, so you can rest assured. At least, I won’t let such a big company collapse in my hands.”
Snorting, Cheng Xiao picked the brush up again, then prepared to write.
Cheng Yu left the room then heard Cheng Feng who was walking over ask him, “What’s wrong with your grandfather?”
“He was pissed off by his useless grandson.”
“What did Cheng Hao say?”
“He probably doesn’t like that I’ve taken over the company.”
Cheng Feng frowned. “I understand, don’t intervene for now. I’ll handle it.”
“Then you better tell him that if there’s a second time, I’ll kick parasites like him out of the Group myself.”
Cheng Yu said firmly, then walked towards his bedroom.
