Chapter 43 Academic Discussion
Yao Zhenshu froze at his words. He didn’t know if Wang Ye was sincere.
He could only smile, “Sir, you are too modest. Xiao Shun has only read a few medical books, but you are a medical legend.”
Wang Ye grunted lightly and said nothing more.
The hall was suddenly enveloped by an awkward atmosphere. Song Zhenhai coughed lightly twice and said, “Mr. Yao, thank you for your hospitality, we should go. We will all expect your visit at my home when we can have the honor.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
At that, he stood up and was leaving.
He had made it very clear that if they needed help they could call him.
Yao Zhenshu was overjoyed and hurriedly got up, “You’re welcome. It’s our pleasure.”
After that family sent Song Zhenhai and Wang Ye to the door.
Yao Zhenshu finally couldn’t hold back his curiosity. He looked at Xiao Shun and asked, “What did you talk to Mr. Wang about just now?”
“Just some medical knowledge.” Xiao Shun said casually.
“Medical knowledge? Haha, what can you discuss with him?” Li Chunlian snickered.
“You can ask Wang Ye,” Xiao Shun said as he gave her a cold look.
“Liu Yunxiang, your trash is becoming quite something now. Is this how you taught him?” Li Chunlian looked at Liu Yuxiang with a grim face.
“Is it ever your business?” Liu Yunxiang retorted.
Even though she never liked Xiao Shun, she still enjoyed making her angry.
“Shut up, can you? How old are you already?” Yao Zhenshu reprimanded.
The two finally stopped.
“Just go do what you need to do. We have some things we need to discuss.” Yao Zhenshu said with a serious face.
At that, he turned and strutted back into the hall, and those relatives all followed him in.
Yao Cen returned to their car with Xiao Shun.
“What exactly did you guys talk about?” Yao Cen asked curiously as well.
“I said. Medical knowledge.” Xiao Shun said back.
Since he was unwilling to disclose his illness, Xiao Shun would naturally keep it a secret for them. Besides, he wasn’t lying.
Yao Cen bristled, “OK.”
“After we get the deed, let’s go to the court and add your name to it,” Xiao Shun said calmly.
Yao Cen froze for a moment. She felt a sudden rush of warmth over her heart. It wasn’t because of the house, but this fact that this man cared about her.
But Yao Cen didn’t realize that she was already starting to care if this jerk cared about her…
“So what you said this morning was just to piss off my mom?”
“Not exactly. I just want her to be nice to me. I don’t want her to keep talking about divorce.”
Yao Cen was silent for a moment, “You want to use the villa to shut her up?”
Xiao Shun didn’t say anything.
“Then you’re probably overthinking it. You still don’t know enough about Liu Yunxiang. Even after my name was added to the deed of your house, she would still force you to divorce me. I feel like this has become a lifelong goal of hers.”
Yao Cen couldn’t help but bring a light smile to his face.
“So we better keep that from her and kept her waiting,” Xiao Shun put his hands behind his head and leaned heavily on the back of his chair.
Yao Cen immediately understood what he meant.
As long as they still thought about the villa, Liu Yunxiang would not let him go. Before that day, everything she said was nothing more than bluffing. At least, she wouldn’t really force them to get a divorce for the time being.
“Actually… If you can work harder, she would just shut up,” Yao Cen stammered.
“But we have got such a big house.”
“But, it’s just pure luck. It feels so unreal.”
“Do you feel it’s unreal?” Xiao Shun asked looking at her.
Yao Cen’s face flushed and he said with a blank stare, “That’s enough!”
Inside the mansion.
A few of the family were having a meeting in the hall.
“I intend to restructure our business. We’ll take back the rights to run Tulip International. For the time being, it would be put under Evergreen Group.”
Yao Zhenshu made his point clear immediately.
When Liu Yunxiang heard that, she immediately jumped to her feet, “I don’t agree. Why would you do that?”
“I will give you another company.” Yao Zhenshu said.
“Why? You are so shameless. Grandpa started Tulip International, but you guys never had any breakthroughs. Do you guys think you can just have this company all to yourselves?”
Li Chunlian sneered.
In this day and age, the value of branding was clear. Tulip International had been in the city for over a decade and even though they didn’t sell everyday items, everyone had heard of and trusted the brand.
Just like those century-old stores, Tulip International had become a brand.
She just knew she could by no mean lose the company.
Although they hadn’t had any breakthroughs in the last few years, her daughter had been working very hard. She simply could not let them take the company for nothing like that.
Yao Jianguo certainly understood that, but when facing Yao Zhenshu he dared not say otherwise.
When the others heard the news, they were amused.
If such a good brand was put under Evergreen Group, then they would all have a chance.
So no one would raise objection.
Liu Yunxiang pinched Yao Jianguo hard and scolded in a low voice, “Say something!”
Yao Jianguo stood up stiffly, “Tulip International is now ours, and you can’t just take the company away without even a reason.”
“Well, since you guys need a reason.”
Yao Zhenshu said with a sullen face, ”There is something wrong with that son-in-law of your family. Think about it. What was he like when he first entered your family? What was he like these three years? But what about now?”
The crowd seemed to understand something at once when they heard what he said.
“Yeah, for the last three years, we all thought he was a loser, a dumbhead, but he’s been a different person since that party. It’s so unusual, too.”
“He must have some motive to enter our family. If he knows so much about medicine, and he can make a living any way he wants, why should he stay with you? Think about it.”
“Our family has been in this city for so many years, and if I said we’ve never offended anyone then I’d definitely be lying. Could it be that he’s actually an undercover agent someone planted in our family?”
Everyone began to murmur.
