Wen Honglin stood up in indignation when he scanned the faces of the people in the room, confirming that this was indeed not a prank they were playing on him. "This is not possible! This is not possible at all! That memas that the contract is now null and void."
Chunlan chuckled along with her sister when they saw how agitated he was at their little scam."Not necessarily, Mr Wen. You see, you signed the contract stating that you would transfer the ownership of Starlock to me and in exchange for that, I would give you half of my shares as the position of successor of this company. But you see, we were supposed to do that at the same time but you went ahead of me just so that you can prove your love for me. I no longer have any shares to give but that doesn't matter anymore since you have already transfered the ownership to me anyway."
He saw Chunlan grab her sister's hand and stand up to leave the office with the remaining bodyguards following behind them. This was one of the rare times that Honglin had ever lost his composure. He rushed to grab her with livid eyes. "You wrench, do you think I would let you get away with this? You would pay for this, Chunlan! I pro-"
He was reeled back from a lethal kick that sent him hitting the wall with a thud before he landed on the floor. He seemed to have finally come to his senses as his eyes widened with fear and shock when he saw Tang Huizhong approach him, making him stand upright by grabbing his collar.
"You dare....to touch my daughter in front of me?" Anyone would a pair of eyes would see that Tang Huizhong was very angry. The serenity in his voice frightened Wen Honglin even more, making him struggled to explain himself.
Chunhua had not seen her father handle these type of matters so this was the first time she had seen him this furious. She was sure that her father would kill him without any care for the consequences right now if she did not say something. "Father....."
Tang Huizhong's hand on Wen Honglin's collar loosened a little when he sensed the fear in her voice. "Hua'er, Father will be with you very soon. Yin Tao, get them out of here."
Chunlan felt her sister resisting so she tightened her hold on her hand as Yin Tao guided them out of the room. Chunhua whɨnėd when she realized that she couldn't free herself. "Jie Jie, let me go. Father is going to kill him!"
"That's none of our business, Hua'er." Chunlan retorted as they left the room. She also felt that the best thing for everyone was to get rid of Wen Honglin and his troublesome family so she had no qualms about her after doing the job. They could deal with the consequences later and she was sure that with the help of the remaining six families, they would be able to successfully quash the Wen family like a bug.
She smiled when she heard the faint muted screams that came from the sound-proofed walls of her office. She wondered if Jihai would be at home since her father had come back from the presidential palace, perhaps she would be able to talk to him about Shen Ji when she reached home.
However, in the Wen family, Wen Qiqiang had returned back home full of fury using his wooden cane to smash all the antique vases in his living room, ignoring his frightened son who stood there trembling in a corner as his father ranted. "Those useless brats want to go against me! They are taking me for granted, forgetting who I was and who I am! I will not spare any of them, no one!"
A ladylike laugh resonated from behind, silencing them as they turned to face the dining room where an old lady dressed in cheongsam was seated in an elegant posture, sipping the tea that the maids had served her. She said. "Oh, Senior Brother. You are now getting old so you should learn to worry about your health, what do you think you are doing getting angry like this?"
Wen Tianxiang's mouth fell open when he saw her, rushing forward to greet her. "Auntie, we didn't know you have finally returned to China, how have you been?"
Wen Qiqiang scowled at her eve though his temper had cooled when he saw her. "What are you doing here, Yanmei?"
The old lady sensed his displeasure and she dropped her cup, her pleasant expression turning grim as she decided to end the pleasantries. "I came back because I heard what had happened to my granddaughter but imagine my shocjy when I found out about the succession of the six families, Chunlan's blindness and what you people did to Lai Weilong. A lot of things have truly happened in my absence."
Wen Qiqiang waved his son out if the room as he approached the former matriarch of the Shen family, Shen Yanmei, sitting opposite her as he rested his elbow on his cane. "Tell me what you have in mind, Junior Sister? Why are you here and name your terms."
Shen Yanmei smiled. She had always loved dealing with smart people and right now, they were the last two elders left among the six families. "I want to sink the Tang family into oblivion. My granddaughter has always been in love with that boy who has just become Huizhong's successor and as her grandmother I want to help her achieve her dėsɨrė. We Shen women will never be beneath anybody."
Wen Qiqiang's eyebrow arched in confusion. "But will your daughter, Guiying agree to this plan? We both know that she has been in love with Huizhong since she was just a young girl."
Shen Yanmei's face darkened further for a moment as her eyes scanned the room making sure that no one was around before she replied. "Senior Brother, I am going to tell you the truth. Something to show you my sincerity so that you can trust me in this alliance."
Wen Qiqiang's ears quirked up in interest. "What is it?"
Shen Yanmei looked a little bit nervous before she composed herself, saying. "You don't need to worry about my daughter interfering with our plan because she is not in love with Tang Huizhong at all, I can ȧssure you." She lifted her cup to take a sip before she continued. "My daughter likes women, Senior Brother. She was in love with his wife, Tang Haifeng."
Wen Tianxiang who stayed behind to eavesdrop on the old people, gasped when he heard the shocking news, covering his mouth with widened eyes.
