Chapter 297: Inheritance

【Is Daddy stupid? Does he have no self-awareness about his own judgment? If we use Daddy's people, we might as well pack them up and send them into Hua Jing Entertainment!】

Su Yi very much wanted to scold Su Yu — she was being jealous and slanderous! His Yan Yan was the one who truly cared about him!

Ji Yan patted her daughter's head — her daughter understood her after all!

She held all of Su Yi's assets in her hands, but in her heart, these things were not hers. She didn't feel much sense of accomplishment looking at them.

Ji Yan was very clear about how complicated the industry was. Su Yu's goal was to cultivate a different kind of strength-based singers, actors, and so on, and Ji Yan of course had to consider her daughter's ideas. But at Splendid Scenery, such thinking was naive.

A company existed to make money; its resources would be tilted toward whoever could bring the greatest benefit to the company — only they deserved the lion's share. The rest could only scramble for the scraps others didn't want.

Ji Yan had her parents' gifts and the capital to support Su Yu's somewhat "naive" ideas — to build a slightly different kind of studio, one where talented people could shine on a platform they liked.

Building a studio was not easy, and Ji Yan wasn't foolish enough to do everything herself. With Su Xi as her backer, Ji Yan would of course make good use of that, selecting a batch of normal people to help her work.

The people Su Yi picked had too many pitfalls!

For her first real venture, Ji Yan didn't want to add difficulty for herself!

At this moment, Su Yi very much wanted to pull out someone who could refute his daughter's viewpoint, but he thought and thought, thought and thought, and truly couldn't think of a suitable one!

Wait — why were the people under him all "humoring" Su Yu, while the people under his eldest brother treated her with great respect, carrying out her words as orders?

Some of his friends were quite suitable, but they weren't Su Clan employees — they might agree to co-found a studio with Ji Yan, but it was completely impossible for them to work for her!

"Daddy, you absolutely must not have any ideas about helping Mommy get financing!"

Su Yi: How do you know again?

Ji Yan also agreed, "The red envelopes I've received are already enough. Using red envelope money to start a business — if it loses money, it won't hurt!"

Ji Tianlin had just gotten home. Hearing the word "business," his exhausted body was instantly energized.

"Who's starting a business?"

Ji Tianlin's expectant gaze fell on Su Yu. He wanted to know — had Su Yu thought it through, willing to listen to him, come to his company, and let him teach her how to start a business hand in hand?

"It's Mommy! Mommy wants to build a studio!"

"Good! That's absolutely wonderful! Jiajia, do you have enough money? Here, this is Daddy's card — go swipe it! If you run into anything you can't solve, come to Daddy. Daddy has lots of friends, and one of them will surely be able to solve the problem!"

Ji Tianlin very much wanted to say: if you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem. But his daughter was only just starting to think about entrepreneurship — he couldn't scare her.

Xu Mingyue had instructed the kitchen chef about tonight's dinner, and after going upstairs, she only caught the last few sentences. "What's bothering Jiajia? Mommy can help too!"

"I'm fine, I just want to start a business, open a studio."

"Great! Does Jiajia need money? Here's Mommy's card — swipe it as much as you like! If you need a guide or a partner in this industry, you can also come to Mommy. The Xu family has plenty of relatives, and you're in the group chat too — just speak up directly if anything comes up, and hand over to Mommy whatever you can't negotiate!"

Back then, to pray for the lost Ji Yan, Xu Mingyue frequently did good deeds, and a whole lot of people owed her favors. If her daughter needed it, she could go "collect debts" one by one, to escort and protect her daughter's career!

"Thank you, Mommy! Thank you, Daddy!"

Xu Mingyue smiled happily, "This is what Mommy should do for you!"

Ji Tianlin was also very happy, "Daddy will always be your backing!"

Ji Tianlin wanted nothing more than to set off firecrackers all night to celebrate this wonderful news! He had long worried that no one would inherit his business! Before today, he had been thinking about how to fight Su Xi for Su Yu as an heir!

He hadn't expected that heaven would bless him — his precious daughter actually had the idea of starting a business!

He'd always said his daughter took after him! Even though she liked music, in the end she'd still veered into business!

At this moment, Ji Tianlin seemed to see the scene of his daughter inheriting his family business, with Su Yu coming over to help!

"Jiajia, if you have any questions, you must come to Daddy. Daddy can answer them for you anytime!"

His daughter had no business foundation, but she was smart. Under his guidance, she could surely take over his business perfectly!

"Okay, thank you, Daddy!"

Su Yi had completely lost his voice!

……

"Qi Yinghao, are you crazy? You want to break off our engagement?"

Ji Xiaoling learned that Qi Yinghao was meddling in the estate's affairs, wanting to make some achievements. As for the scandal between Qi Yinghao and Zheng Yuerong, she chose to handle it coldly!

She had wanted to swallow this grievance and settle accounts after seizing power. But she hadn't expected that even after she tolerated it, Qi Yinghao would still get full of himself!

"No, I'm not crazy. Didn't you say I could only compete for the position of Qi family head by relying on you? I'm not going to be the family head anymore, so is there still any need for our engagement to exist?"

Qi Yinghao felt there was absolutely no need!

He wasn't going to be the heir anymore — why should he sacrifice his marriage to spend a lifetime with a woman he disliked?

Thinking of Zheng Yuerong, whose eyes were swollen from crying because of yesterday's public opinion, he didn't want to keep entangling with Ji Xiaoling. "Tomorrow I'll directly announce that our engagement is dissolved. Let's part on good terms — we can still be friends in the future!"

"You really are crazy. Are you planning to hold onto a scheming woman and be a good-for-nothing from now on?"

"You're going too far!"

Qi Yinghao of course didn't want to be a good-for-nothing! But yesterday he had worked hard all day, and his childhood friend secretly leaked the bottom line to him — his eldest brother was already preparing to deal with him.

If he competed for the family head position, he would have to fight his brother. If he won, he would be the next head of the Qi family. If he lost, his brother wouldn't let him off either — he would definitely dig up all the bad things he'd done over the years, ruin his reputation, and find a way to send him to prison.

If he behaved himself, pinned the idea of wanting to seize the family head position onto Ji Xiaoling, and gave up just like that, he could still be a playboy young master living off the family's dividends.

What he should truly choose — wasn't it obvious?

One day was enough for Qi Yinghao to see clearly the gap between himself and his eldest brother.

He wanted to be the young master now, so of course he had to make a statement!

Breaking off the engagement with Ji Xiaoling was his most sincere gesture of goodwill!

"I'm going too far, ha? Isn't this the time when you yourself were coveting the heir's position, making all kinds of guarantees to our family?"

Ji Xiaoling truly felt she had been blind to pick such a specimen. If she'd known, she would have chosen someone from the military — even if their status and position were lower than Qi Yinghao's, and their looks weren't great either, at least they'd be stable!

She could have had a good status and wouldn't be sent onto Hot Search as gossip material!

Hearing these words, Qi Yinghao feared Ji Xiaoling would act recklessly, so he decided to use the information he'd obtained to threaten her.

Good night, darlings~
