Chapter 2116

"This... this..."

Fei Shanhai was suddenly speechless.

If people discussed how he obtained the position of family head, he could confidently and proudly say that he obtained it through legal means.

This is called having a justified reason.

Throughout history, both at home and abroad, whenever there is a major event, it is important to have a justified reason. Even the most heinous aggressors would fabricate a set of high-sounding lies, let alone Fei Shanhai.

However, if people knew that he was hunting his own biological father all over the world, then this would not be having a justified reason.

Once such a scandal was exposed, he would have no way to continue clinging to the position of family head; other than resigning in disgrace, he would have no other choice.

Thinking of this, he could only make a final effort and say: "Mr. Ye, however, since both my father and I have stains and are no longer suitable to serve as the family head, why not let my son Fei Xuebin succeed?"

For Fei Shanhai, if he absolutely had to step down, he would definitely give the position to his son.

However, Ye Chen refused him without hesitation and said coldly: "What? Fei Haoyang's matter is just about to be exposed, and you want Fei Haoyang's father to be the family head? Do you think that whoever has the biggest stain is the most suitable to be the family head?"

"I... this..." Fei Shanhai was suddenly speechless.

Only then did he realize that when Ye Chen threw out this "stain theory," not only were he and the old master rejected, but even his eldest son Fei Xuebin was rejected.

He just wanted to take the opportunity to suggest his second son, but at this moment, his mind suddenly came to his senses: "Ye Chen has been beating around the bush for so long, he just wants Fei Kexin to be the Fei family head, right?! The reason he didn't say it clearly must be because he wants to go with the flow and make others have nothing to say. If I continue to bite the bullet and go against him at this time, once Ye Chen is provoked, I will definitely not have a good end..."

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "Mr. Ye... since that's the case, then I have a suggestion for a more suitable candidate..."

At this time, Fei Shanhai's second son, Fei Xuejin, was already excited and impatient.

He felt that he didn't have any stains, and since his eldest brother couldn't inherit the position of family head, he could just take advantage of the situation and pick up a ready-made one.

Moreover, he also felt that his father would definitely suggest him to Ye Chen at this time.

Ye Chen looked at Fei Shanhai with great interest at this time and asked: "What suitable candidate? Let's hear it."

No one expected that Fei Shanhai would clasp his hands together at this time and say respectfully: "Mr. Ye, in my opinion, the most suitable person to succeed as the family head right now is my niece, Fei Kexin..."

As soon as these words came out, Fei Xuejin collapsed completely and blurted out: "Dad! How can the Fei family head be a girl?! Are you senile?"

Fei Shanhai glared at Fei Xuejin and said angrily: "Shut up!"

Fei Xuejin was so frightened by his look that he shivered and could only shut his mouth tactfully.

Fei Jianzhong also didn't expect that Fei Shanhai would change so quickly and directly suggest letting his granddaughter Fei Kexin be the family head.

He couldn't help but think to himself: "Shanhai has seen Ye Chen's intention and started to go down the slope, taking the opportunity to please Ye Chen and Kexin..."

Ye Chen looked at Fei Jianzhong at this time and asked: "Old Master Fei, what do you think of Fei Shanhai's suggestion?"

Fei Jianzhong was extremely helpless in his heart. He knew that his wish to regain the position of family head today was completely dashed.

It seemed that under Ye Chen's influence, his son Fei Shanhai had no way to continue sitting in the position of family head.

This meant that although he didn't get back the position of family head, at least he wouldn't have to hide and flee from assassination in the future.

Thinking of this, he could only say respectfully: "Mr. Ye, I also think that letting Kexin be the family head is the best choice at the moment."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, looked at Fei Kexin, and asked: "Miss Fei, what do you think?"

Fei Kexin was a little nervous all of a sudden.

She actually never thought about seizing the position of the Fei family head.

After all, the Fei family had never let a woman be the head of the house.

Moreover, her previous idea was very simple: before her grandfather passed away, she would strive for as many benefits as possible for her parents and other family members, so as to avoid her family being squeezed out and expelled after her grandfather was gone.
