Song Recommendation: LA DI DA By Everglow
"Put the gun away, Zhang Bo, you do not want to do what you will regret in the future," Xin Yi was quick to pull Zhang Luiying into his arms.
"I have always done things, and I do not regret what I do, if I kill you both here, I will not regret it, after all, you both are thorns in my path," Zhang Bo’s eyes were red as he shouted at them.
The maids who were in their respective duty post turned a blind eye towards the issue. This was not the first time someone would be killed in the mansion.
They knew these wouldn’t be the first bodies they took care of, and it would definitely not be the last. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Xin Yi frowned. It seems Zhang Bo has lost his mind. He hoped the Police would arrive on time. In the meantime, he hoped he could while away time by discussing with him.
"Are you sure you want to take this step? You could be sentenced to life, not only that, you could also end up dying," Xin Yi tried to convince him to drop the comb by instilling fear into him.
As expected, Zhang Bo’s face changed. He could not fathom losing everything which he had worked for.
Seeing that his words were already getting to the older man, Xin Yi continued.
"I am aware that you are a man who loves power, and trying to take this step which you have set your hearts on would prove to be detrimental to you, and also your reputation," Xin Yi’s words were the icing on the cake.
He knew what Zhang Bo’s weakness was. He loved his reputation, and he could not stand seeing his reputation in the ruins.
Zhang Luiying, on the other hand, watched the entire drama with a blank expression. Her body had become frozen when she saw the gun, she hoped the Police would arrive in time.
Zhang Bo slowly put his gun down, and the couple heaved a sigh of relief.
But their relief only lasted for a second when Zhang Bo’s face changed as he targeted Zhang Luiying.
"Do you think your words can fool me? You think I will listen to you speak, and do as you say? Surely, you must have underestimated me," Zhang Bo sneered, cocking the gun as he aimed at Zhang Luiying who was shivering in Xin Yi’s arms.
"Uncle, my father would not forgive you if you do this," Zhang Luiying states, trying to put up a brave front.
"When have I ever asked for your father’s approval? Alright, let me tell you a story, you do not need to be scared of me, after I’m done with my story, then you can judge my actions," Zhang Bo smiled as he dropped the gun to the side.
"You see, there were two brothers, very competitive brothers, the older one was brilliant, but the younger one was smarter than the older one, after a test, the father of the two sons decided to hand over the businesses to the younger son, neglecting the older one in the process," Zhang Bo paused, allowing the message to be processed by the company.
"If you were the older son, how would you feel?" Zhang Bo asked, his eyes darting between the two couples.
"I would not feel bad, it just shows that I am not that competent, and I need to work on my competence, what I would do is study more, so my father would be willing to see I also have the potential to run a business," Zhang Luiying replied naturally.
Zhang Bo’s forehead creased. This was not the answer he was expecting.
"What about you, Xin Yi? What would be your reaction to it?" Zhang Bo forced out a smile as he asked. He was not satisfied with Zhang Luiying’s answer.
Xin Yi was silent for a while, before he opened his mouth to say, "I would also do the same thing as Zhang Luiying said,
I think you should know this, but my sister was chosen over me, but I never complained because I did not want to take over the business, and also because I felt I wasn’t competent, if after we have had the test, and it shows I am not competent, I would work on myself."
Again, Zhang Bo was stumped by their answers.
"Do you know who those boys were? I was the older one, and your father, the younger one, I was the one who was meant to inherit the business, but my father decided to give it to my younger brother, how does that sound to the ears?" Zhang Bo exhaled before he explained to them..
"It just showed that you were not that competent, it would be better for a competent person to take over the company, I believe grandfather would have given it to someone else if both you and my father were not up to his taste," Zhang Luiying replied calmly.
She was saying the truth. Grandfather Zhang would rather give his company to an outsider, than to someone who cannot handle it.
Fortunately, Zhang Luiying’s father was a smart and competent businessman.
"Are you trying to say it is my fault?" Zhang Bo asked, pointing to himself.
"I never tried to say that, what would you gain if you had been able to successfully separate me from my parents?" Zhang Luiying asked with folded arms.
Zhang Bo turned silent. He honestly had no idea why he thought of that. He thought that his brother would perhaps feel dispirited, and won’t be able to handle matters concerning the company.
But he had underestimated his younger brother. Despite facing such a setback, he could still take care of matters concerning the office, and he (Zhang Bo) had been unable to take over the company, irrespective of his intricate plans.
"You are right, what did I gain?" Zhang Bo muttered under his breath. His breathing turned shallow as he thought about how his plans have always failed.
