Chapter 1752: Zihan Designated as Dingsheng's Successor

~8 min read 1,406 words

The brothers did not tell their mother what their father had said.

On this matter, their stance was the same as their father's.

They all hoped Zirui would not change his major and would consider the big picture; if he did not become the Heir, Dingsheng would have no successor.

Zirui said, "Zihan can do it. He is smart, flexible, and adaptable. If he inherits Dingsheng in the future, it will surely reach new heights."

"Zihan cannot do it."

"I cannot do it."

"Can he do it?"

The three brothers were all of a dismissive attitude, and Zichen even added, "Zihan is always lackadaisical; he isn't as rigorous as you."

Despite being looked down upon in front of everyone, Zihan did not show the slightest unhappiness; he even agreed with his eldest brother: "Exactly, exactly, I definitely can't do it. Zirui, I know why you're throwing in the towel at a time like this."

"Let's be blunt: aren't you just holding a grudge because Dad opposes you and Qi Shishi? How about this, I'll go talk to Dad and ask him not to oppose you anymore, and you don't change your major either. That way, everything will be fine for everyone."

"No."

This "everything will be fine for everyone" proposal was rejected by Zirui.

He said he was not threatening his father, he just did not want to be the Heir, and asked everyone to go back; he appreciated their good intentions, but he would absolutely not change his mind.

Others could stay silent, but Zihan could not.

He nagged endlessly like Tang Seng to Zirui: "You can't screw me over; I can't do it. I'm used to being free and easy. Who did I offend that you're all trying to screw me over..."

"If I take over Dingsheng, it won't take long for the company to fall into ruin, and then I'll be the sinner of the family... You all have your own careers to pursue and can choose not to inherit the family assets; if it's squandered, so be it, but what about Yueyue?"

"You have to leave something for Yueyue, right? You can't let Yueyue end up like Qi Shishi, living in luxury from childhood only to not last long..."

Zihan used his silver tongue, laying out facts and reasoning, and even went so far as to use Yueyue as an excuse, hoping Zirui would change his mind.

But it was useless.

Zirui was completely unmoved; the things he decided were the result of careful deliberation, and once a decision was made and action taken, there was no possibility of changing it!

The three brothers returned in defeat.

Since they could not persuade Zirui, they prepared to persuade their father; even if they couldn't solve the problem, it would be good to make their father less angry.

When the three brothers returned home, Sheng Hanyu saw them all returning together, and before the children could speak, he said first, "If you've come back to see me, then stay."

"If you mention that rebellious son even once, don't speak to me. I don't want to hear his name; he is not a child of my Sheng Family and has already been removed from the Sheng Family."

"You're crazy."

The one cursing was Shi Youxuan; she held her husband's act of spite in contempt.

And she even undermined him at a critical moment: "Whether you acknowledge him is your business, don't drag me into it. The flesh that fell from my body is my son no matter what."

Sheng Hanyu roared helplessly: "Are you trying to anger me to death? I'm still sick, can you not contradict me at a time like this?"

"Fine, I'll just stay silent, is that okay?"

She stood up and left, letting the father and his sons talk.

She held her husband Sheng Hanyu's behavior in great contempt!

She thought only pretentious people would do something like faking an illness; she didn't expect that when her own husband got pretentious, no one else could compare.

That's right, he was very angry, so angry that his heart was beating a little fast!

The doctor said it was myocardial ischemia, a mild case.

This condition was common at his age, but Sheng Hanyu simply took sick leave, ignored company matters, and even widely publicized that he had a very serious heart disease.

Others might not know, but Shi Youxuan knew very well that her husband was doing this to force Zirui to change his mind.

A classic sob story.

One was painstakingly putting on a show, the other was dismissively undermining it.

Sheng Hanyu chased his wife out of the room, leaving his sons behind to continue the sob story.

He would pant after saying a single sentence, putting on a weak and listless appearance.

The three brothers saw it in their eyes and felt anxious in their hearts; Litian couldn't help but advise, "Dad, just agree to Zirui and Qi Shishi, that way he probably won't change his major..."

Sheng Hanyu: "Did he tell you to say that to me?"

Litian hurriedly denied it: "No, this is what I think; it has nothing to do with Zirui."

Sheng Hanyu closed his eyes, very disappointed.

He understood Zirui's personality very well; if Zirui had said it, there would still be room for maneuver, but since it wasn't Zirui himself, it meant he had already made up his mind and would never turn back.

Sheng Hanyu dropped a bombshell, announcing a decision: "Since you three are all here, it saves me from notifying you one by one. Starting next week, Zihan will be the Heir of Dingsheng. He must come to the company at least once a week, and I will teach you to familiarize yourself with company affairs."

Zihan made a bitter face: "I can't, Dad, you can't do this, I can't do it..."

Sheng Hanyu: "Are you going to sever the father-son relationship with me too?"

"I am not!"

"Then it's settled, no more nonsense."

Zihan:...

What do you mean it's settled?

He hadn't agreed at all; this was a classic case of forcing a duck onto the perch.

Sheng Hanyu hadn't made this decision on a whim; he had considered it for several days before deciding to do so.

Recent events showed that Zihan also had strong leadership abilities; although his methods were different from his own, regardless of what methods were used, as long as the desired goal could be achieved, it was good.

Sheng Hanyu not only decided on Zihan as the future successor of Dingsheng, but he also made him the main person in charge of receiving Qi Shishi this time!

Airport.

The airport was very lively; besides the person in charge from Dingsheng, government officials also attended, and there were many reporters.

Qi Shishi walked down the airstairs, and Zihan handed her a bouquet of flowers, saying politely, "Jiangzhou welcomes you."

"Thank you!"

She politely accepted the flowers and thanked them, a flash of loneliness passing through her eyes.

Although the loneliness was fleeting, it did not escape Zihan's eyes!

According to the highest etiquette of Country L, both parties in a partnership should politely embrace after meeting to show that their cooperation is seamless.

In the moment of the embrace, Zirui whispered quickly in her ear: "Zirui has transferred departments and will be a politician in the future, so my father won't be able to control you all anymore."

This should count as very good news, right?

Even if it wasn't good to show it too obviously, she should have given some kind of response, right?

But Qi Shishi had no reaction at all, as if she hadn't heard anything.

There were so many people at the scene that it wasn't convenient for them to say too much, and Zihan had no chance to say more even if she wanted to.

Returning from the airport, there was the welcome party arranged by Dingsheng!

The party was of a very high standard, and Qi Shishi, in a fiery red long dress, stunned everyone the moment she appeared!

The first dance at the party, as per custom, should be the host inviting the most distinguished guest to dance.

As the person in charge of Dingsheng, Zihan invited Qi Shishi to dance gracefully, and Tian Yuanyuan saw this scene on the news!
