Chapter 169: Tricked Miserably by Yuke

He was not stupid; he could feel that his wife despised him.

Gradually, he discovered that this kind of life was actually quite good.

He could fantasize about characters in the computer at will, and without fear of retaliation, it was very safe; his physiological needs were met, and the remaining time was spent playing games; he gradually lived like a shut-in, indifferent to the world outside and content with his own company.

But when Sheng Hai suddenly barged in, he still couldn't save face, pushing and cursing to drive his father out.

Sheng Hai also hadn't expected to see such a scene; stunned for a moment, he slapped his son hard across the face: "You useless thing, I only thought you had been blinded and bewitched by that woman, but I didn't expect you to be so shameless!"

In Sheng Hai's perception, it was nothing for a man to have a few women, and betraying a marriage was also nothing; these all counted as a man's capability.

But if one couldn't even find a woman, that was being incapable.

What Sheng Yukai had just done was exactly what the most incapable and useless man would do!

"You hit me?"

Sheng Yukai was shocked, and although his eyes were spitting fire, he didn't dare to fight back.

At this moment, Bai Xue came up from downstairs, a large bump swollen on her forehead, being supported by a servant with one hand while holding her waist with the other.

Seeing her son also being hit, Bai Xue was furious and rushed up, ready to fight Sheng Hai to the death!

"Yuke is about to sell out the Sheng Family, and you two only know how to look at me with displeasure, you useless things."

Sheng Hai was still cursing, but the mother and son no longer rushed forward, hurriedly asking him what was going on.

He took a newspaper out of his briefcase and threw it in front of them: "See for yourselves."

The news was easy to find; the front-page headline of the Financial Daily was the news that Sheng Clan Group was going to merge with Dingsheng!

He had long seen that Yuke had no good intentions, but this pair of stupid mother and son believed that woman's words and joined forces to drive him out.

As a result, only a few days after he left, such a huge mess happened at home; Sheng Hai only now understood Yuke's reason for framing him—it was waiting for him here.

Bai Xue started wailing as soon as she saw the headline: "Silly son, how many times have I told you that you can't listen to everything that woman Yuke says, but you just wouldn't listen; now it's over, everything we fought for and snatched over the decades has all been handed back..."

"Bastard, I'm going to settle the score with her!"

Sheng Yukai's eyes were spitting fire; he crumpled the newspaper into a ball in a few quick movements, stomped on it hard, and was about to rush out to find Yuke.

"Son..."

Bai Xue wanted to remind him that he hadn't put on his mask, but she was pulled back by Sheng Hai: "Don't remind him; you interfere with everything he does, and he will never amount to anything."

He hoped Sheng Yukai could walk out of the gloom; the scar on his face could be treated with skin grafting and plastic surgery in two years to slowly recover to its original state, but the shadow in his heart could only be erased by himself.

Time waits for no one; even if they wanted time to dilute all of this, it seemed that some people wouldn't give them that chance!

Sheng Yukai rushed to the front door in a rage but turned back, ordering the servant: "Go to my room and get my mask."

Sheng Hai's heart immediately went cold.

Sheng Clan.

Sheng Yukai went to the office to settle the score with Yuke, but he didn't even see her.

With no outlet for his pent-up rage, Sheng Yukai smashed the office to pieces; after smashing Yuke's office, he went to Shi Yucheng's house to find her.

There was no one at the Shi Family!

Not only was Yuke not there, and Shi Yucheng not there, but even the servants had been given paid leave to go home and rest.

Shi Youxuan knew that once this news spread, Sheng Yukai would definitely come here to cause trouble, so she had booked a luxury world cruise for her father in advance, and he had gone out to travel and relax.

As for Yuke, she didn't need to worry; that person would naturally protect herself very well.

Sheng Yukai had been thwarted twice in a row, and his next step was to go find Hanyu to cause trouble!

But halfway there, he stopped again; he didn't dare.

Finally, dispirited, he returned home to discuss with his parents what to do about this matter.

"You useless thing, how did I give birth to such a useless son?" Bai Xue rambled on, venting her dissatisfaction, and half an hour had passed before she knew it.

If it were in the past, Sheng Yukai would have long since impatiently told his mother to shut up.

But now he didn't; he curled up into the sofa, burying his head between his knees without a word, letting his mother complain without making a sound, only his shoulders were heaving as if he were crying?

Sheng Hai grabbed Sheng Yukai's hair and forced him to lift his head; sure enough, he was covered in tears.

He was extremely disappointed; this son was completely ruined, and there was no hope of counting on him to win back the Sheng Family; Sheng Hai prepared to give up on him.

"Call Ze Rong and tell him to come back to inherit the Sheng Family," Sheng Hai said.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Yukai's expression changed drastically, and he immediately grabbed his father's hand and begged: "Dad, you can't let Ze Rong come back; he and Hanyu are in cahoots. It would be better if he didn't come back; if he takes over, will there still be a place for me in the Sheng Family?"

"If he doesn't come back, you won't have a place to stand soon either," Sheng Hai said, frustrated by his son's lack of ambition.

Originally, he had high hopes for Sheng Yukai, but he didn't expect him to be so useless, falling for a woman again and again.

This time it was even worse; not only did he fall, but he also dragged the Sheng Family down with him.

Sheng Hai urged Sheng Zerong to return to the country, but he was unwilling.

Sheng Zerong even felt that after the merger, everyone just took shares, and it was quite good for Hanyu to be the Chairman, which also matched their grandfather's wishes before he passed away!

When the old man was alive, he hoped that Hanyu would hold power and everyone would take shares together; now that it had come full circle, wasn't this result just right...

Sheng Zerong had never been close to him, but Sheng Hai never expected that there would be no common ground between father and son.

The Chairman position was offered to him and he didn't want it, so he was so angry that he scolded Sheng Zerong over the phone.

Sheng Zerong didn't want to be the Chairman of the Sheng Family, and Sheng Hai couldn't let Yuke have her way, so he incited the shareholders to prepare to force her to resign.

Before they could even make a move, Yuke took the initiative to submit her resignation letter to the shareholders' meeting.

She had resigned, but the contracts and merger plans she signed while in office were all effective and had to continue.

No matter who came up to be the Chairman, they couldn't shirk them; of course, if they really didn't want to cooperate, the sky-high breach of contract fees would be enough to bankrupt the Sheng Family!

No one could afford such a huge loss.

Sheng Yukai hadn't even played games these past few days; he wore his mask every day, leaving early and returning late, searching everywhere for Yuke to make her give him an explanation.

According to Sheng Hai's thinking, they shouldn't look for her; the other party had long since started plotting against the Sheng Family, and it was clear that the two sisters of the Shi Family had colluded to set a trap for them. One should accept the loss gracefully; the most important thing now was how to revitalize the Sheng Family, rather than endlessly dwelling on things that had already happened.

The principles Father spoke of were all correct.

The problem was, if Sheng Yukai had a way, wouldn't he have already done it?

It was precisely because he had no way that he wanted to find Shi Yuke and make her spit out the black money she had swallowed. As a result, he couldn't find her when he went out, and he had to be reprimanded by his father when he returned home; the resentment Sheng Yukai had accumulated for many days finally erupted!

"Can you shut up? You scold me all day for being useless and a loser, then what are you? If you weren't a loser, would Grandfather have refused to hand the Sheng Family over to you back then, and instead given it to Sheng Hanyu?"

"You bastard!" Sheng Hai fiercely slapped his son across the face.

These past few days, he had become the laughingstock of Jiangzhou; after plotting his whole life, the Sheng Family still ended up in the hands of the first branch in the end. He, Sheng Hai, was even worse than his big brother, that spineless coward!

Sheng Yukai's resentment was even heavier than his; without a second thought, he slapped him back: "You are the bastard, you are an old bastard! If it weren't for you saying that Shi Yuke could be married back to serve as a facade, how would I have been plotted against so miserably by that woman from a small, humble family?"
