Cheng Yang also had a stubborn temper, he felt that the box might be something the Old Master had to entrust his entire life to him, he would definitely not touch it, as though if he just touched it, the Old Master would disappear.

"You!"

The Old Master was furious and looked straight at Bai Shiyun.

"Bai family's girl, you're his girlfriend, help him keep this."

The old man changed his target and planned to start with the good ones.

"This …"

Bai Shiyun felt embarrassed. Their relationship was fake at first, but if he really took over this item, then this fake show would be done.

"You don't listen to me either?"

The old man was fuming with rage, his expression extremely ugly.

In this family, there was actually no one who could be obedient anymore!

"Grandfather, let me tell you the truth, Bai Shiyun and I are not lovers, we were fake from the very beginning. It was all because of what you guys said, I might as well ask her to play along with you guys, you don't have to make things difficult for her."

Cheng Yang immediately opened his mouth.

"Cheng Yang!"

Bai Shiyun shouted, extremely unsatisfied.

If she said so, she wasn't prepared at all.

"What? Are you really going to take that thing?"

Cheng Yang appeared to not care at all, as though he had seen through everything, but he was still extremely nervous.

With such a big yellow flower, the old tutor must have received a huge blow.

It was a pity that the old tutor only nodded lightly, a bit relieved that he wasn't as angry as he'd thought.

"No wonder …"

The old tutor sighed with emotion.

Cheng Yang curiously looked over, and the old man continued to speak, "No wonder I felt that it was strange. How could a good child of the Bai Family fall for a foolish grandson like me? "Fortunately …"

"Puchi!"

"F * ck!"

Zhong Wentao and Bai Shiyun could not hold back and laughed out loud. Cheng Yang's hair stood on end, and his expression was extremely ugly.

What's so good about that?

This was clearly mocking him for being a fool!

If he endured it, he wouldn't be Cheng Yang!

Ye Zichen stared unblinkingly at the box on the table. Wasn't it just a broken object, so he took it. So what?

As he thought of this, his hand reached toward the box, intending to open it and see what was inside.

"If you do, it will mean that you agree to take on the responsibility of protecting the Cheng family. In the future, it will be the Patriarch Cheng and you will be responsible for the life and death of the entire Cheng family."

These words clearly frightened Cheng Yang, so he quickly retracted his hand and looked at Old Master Cheng in disbelief.

This wasn't in a solitary place, but in a … Power handover!

The entire Cheng family was going to be handed over to him?

A f * * king grandson!

Zhong Wentao and Bai Shiyun looked at each other, and did not dare to make fun of him.

They all understood what that meant. If Cheng Yang really took the box, his entire life would be completely changed. Could Cheng Yang take on such a difficult mission?

"Grandfather, don't tease me, you know what I look like, I don't dare to argue with father and the two elder brothers for the position of the family head."

Cheng Yang was very serious, not one bit fake.

He really enjoyed his current life and the status of being an idiot.

If he was allowed to live in the Cheng Family, the Cheng Family might fall. How could he bear such a heavy responsibility?

Old Master Cheng did not speak, and only felt very disappointed. This grandson had clearly changed. Why was he still so cowardly?

Was there no one in the Cheng family that could be delivered?

"I'll give you a little time. If you still can't make a decision tomorrow morning, then you will leave completely. In the future, you will no longer be a member of the Cheng family, and this family will disperse. Don't blame Grandfather for being heartless. Go rest."

The old tutor stood up and left after he finished speaking.

The figure of the figure seemed to have aged by a lot. Cheng Yang stood there foolishly, he had even forgotten to ask.

Zhong Wentao patted his back, reminding him to go upstairs to rest.

Cheng Yong didn't know when he had returned, but he was watching them at the door. If they continued to stand, the two brothers might even start arguing again.

"I want to be alone for a while …"

With that, Cheng Yang quickly went upstairs and ran back to his own room.

Bai Shiyun and Zhong Wentao looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

There were too many things surprising the Cheng Family this time.

"Bai Shiyun, you were messing with me."

Suddenly, Cheng Yong opened his mouth and walked over in big strides.

He had heard the conversation between the Old Master Cheng and Cheng Yang. He was also surprised that the successor of the Patriarch was Cheng Yang, but what was even more surprising was that Bai Shiyun was not with her.

Then wasn't the previous taunting on purpose?

"Second Young Master Cheng, it's serious."

Bai Shiyun said respectfully, she hid behind Zhong Wentao and angered him even more.

Even a Little Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor was more trusted than him, which was an even greater insult to him.

"Why are you lying to me? Since you and Cheng Yang aren't the same, why aren't you with me? Is it just because Cheng Yang might become the Patriarch in the future? "

Cheng Yong continued to speak: "Don't dream about it, even if Cheng Yang had gotten that box, it would have no effect on him. The box is locked, no one can open it, even the old man has no way of knowing what's inside, the box has been around for five generations already, no one knows what's inside, the current society will definitely not listen to anyone just because of a box in their hands."

"How could this be?"

Bai Shiyun was surprised, she looked upstairs and was worried.

If what Cheng Yong said was true, then Old Master Cheng's life here would be extremely difficult.

If Cheng Yang also walked down this path, what should he do?

"Shiyun, you're tired. Go and rest."

Zhong Wentao opened his mouth, he did not plan to let Cheng Yong continue the nonsense.

How to do it was Cheng Yang's own choice.

"Scram!"

As Cheng Yong said this, he went to push Zhong Wentao, wanting to vent his anger on him.

"Be careful!"

Bai Shiyun panicked.

In the next second, Zhong Wentao's hand grabbed Cheng Yong's fist, gently twisted, and dislocated Chen Yong's shoulder. His entire right arm was dislocated.

"AHH!" "So painful …"

Half kneeling on the ground, Cheng Yong used his left hand to support his right arm as he cried out in pain.

The servants ran out from all over the place, and some were calling for doctors, while others were carrying people. No one accused Zhong Wentao of making a mistake, as they were all being ordered by the Old Master to do their own things.

"Let's go up."

Supporting Bai Shiyun, Zhong Wentao said.

Without any reason to reject, Bai Shiyun could only follow Zhong Wentao upstairs.

In the carriage outside, Zheng Yu and Zhou Zihan were still inside. It was so boring to eat lunch, but Zhong Wentao and the rest still refused to come out.

Zhou Zihan felt wronged, she clearly wanted to go in as well, but he was scared, so he was left behind.

Seeing that she was about to cry, Zheng Yu coaxed his frantically, "Little Ancestor, don't cry!"

"Who …" Who said I was crying? "

Zhou Zihan stuttered as he spoke, his eyes turning red. It was clear that he was about to cry.

Zheng Yu's entire being was in an awkward position, like a car door moving slightly, he did not dare get closer to Zhou Zihan.

Zhou Zihan choked with sobs alone, he covered his ears and did not dare to listen, he only thought that Zhou Zihan was too afraid of him and had only vented it out now.

Zhou Zihan cried. He listened seriously and atoned for his sins.

Upstairs, Bai Shiyun and Zhong Wentao were both worried for Cheng Yang, and had completely forgotten that there were still two people in the courtyard.

The two talked for a long time, but it was still Bai Shiyun who remembered this matter with a pale face. The two frantically went to find them, but Zhou Zihan had already cried three times with his eyes swollen.

Cheng Yang's room was closed all afternoon. No matter who knocked on the door, it would be useless.

Cheng Yong's arms had been dislocated by Zhong Wentao, causing all the uncles of the Cheng Family to come back. They had to give Cheng Yong an explanation, but Cheng Yang's father finally decided to save him, saying that it was a child's play and did not care.

What they cared about the most right now was what Cheng Yong had said on the phone. Was the Cheng Family Patriarch going to let Cheng Yang inherit the power?

The box that symbolized the Patriarch's identity was on the tea table, but no one dared to hold it in their hands. The lock on the box was very obvious; no one had the key to open it.

In the living room, there were many people seated. Cheng Yong's arm was held up by the bandages, he needed to rest for a hundred days.

Old Master Cheng could not wait any longer and knocked on his door as his sons. He came out of his room and sat in the living room to watch them.

No matter who asked, they all said they would wait for Cheng Yang's decision.

"Dad, we don't object to whoever you pass the position of Patriarch. We just need to at least say one reason, otherwise it would be hard to convince the masses."

Second Uncle Cheng Yang spoke up, his expression extremely ugly.

These people had reached the end of their patience and were unable to remain calm.

He had to give such an important position to someone who had been kicked out of the Cheng family. If others were to find out, how would the Cheng family meet people in the future?

"He's the most suitable."

Old Master Cheng coldly said, he did not plan to explain.

Since he was satisfied with this grandson of his, then this position, should be given to Cheng Yang, so what?

For the sake of the box on the tea table, Cheng Yang had been bullied since childhood. The two older brothers had performed very well since childhood, suppressing their younger brother.

This reason made everyone unsatisfied. They wanted to ask more, but they just saw Cheng Yang coming out of his room, and at the second floor's stairs, he looked at them coldly. Zhong Wentao was behind him, the person who came to the house.

"You finally came out."

Second Uncle coldly said, he was getting more and more unsatisfied with Cheng Yang.

The elders are all downstairs, a junior dares to stay in the room, is this the appearance of someone who wants to become the head of the family?

"Go."

Zhong Wentao said softly, cheering for Cheng Yang.

"I …"

After opening his mouth, Cheng Yang felt helpless.

Did he need someone to cheer him on?

That position wasn't his at all.

Looking at the box on the coffee table, he felt only fear, not even a desire.

"I'll help you."

Zhong Wentao said seriously: "As long as you can open that box, you will be the Patriarch. It is fated to be, you will accept it."

"How?"

Cheng Yang softly said, also curious.

If he could open it, he might truly believe that he was destined for it.

"Very simple."

Zhong Wentao said as he pushed Cheng Yang down the stairs. If he kept standing here, he would be treated as a fool.

If they question you later, just say that you can open the box, break your hand, and drip a drop of blood into the keyhole. When the lock is opened, don't open the box, don't look at the contents, immediately close it, and don't let anyone else see?

"Understood."

He nodded seriously, and remembered all of Zhong Wentao's words in his heart. He didn't care what was in the box, if not for so many people forcing him, he wouldn't have gone downstairs.

"Cheng Yang, what exactly are you thinking? I heard that you don't want to be the Patriarch, then just say it out now, and directly say it in front of us. "

Second Uncle was overbearing, he looked at Cheng Yang and wanted him to say it out loud.

"Second brother!"

The Old Master Cheng was not satisfied and said coldly, as a reminder.

If the selection for the family head was forced out by them like this, then everyone could use this method. What was the point of the family head?

"Second Uncle, although I'm not willing to become the family head, I'm a destined candidate. If I don't do it, you won't be able to do it either."

According to what Zhong Wentao had taught him, although he did not understand why Zhong Wentao supported the Old Master Cheng, he still believed that Zhong Wentao had not lied to him for such a long time.

Even if becoming a Patriarch in the future was troublesome, he could still get over it with Zhong Wentao's help.

"Cheng Yang..."

Old Master Cheng suddenly said, a little nervous.

If he were to say such words, how could he end up without being able to open the box?

"Dad, let him hit me. If he can open it, I will."

Second Uncle immediately said, staring straight at Cheng Yang, his eyes filled with disdain.

These people all knew that it was impossible to open this box, and that it would be impossible for Cheng Yang to open it even if he thought he wanted to find something to smash.

They had thought of all the ways they could come up with. Otherwise, they wouldn't have waited until now.

Old Master Cheng's body was not good, he should have given up the position of Patriarch a long time ago. They had waited for a few years, how could they let Cheng Yang snatch it away first?

"What about you?"

Looking around, he had to wait for everyone to agree before he could open the box, otherwise it would just be a gift for someone else.

After everyone nodded their heads, Cheng Yang did as Zhong Wentao said, and used the fruit knife on the tea table to cut his finger, and dripped a drop of red blood into the keyhole.

Click!

The box that had been sealed for many years was opened.

The small lock fell to the ground. There was nothing on the box that prevented others from opening it.

"Oh my god!"

Old Master Cheng did not dare believe that Cheng Yang actually opened the box.

After all these years, even though many people had tried it, it was useless. To think that it would actually be opened by Cheng Yang.

A fated person was indeed a fated person!

Old Master Cheng cried tears of joy. The expressions of all the uncles present turned ugly.

Cheng Yong endured the anger in his heart and coldly spoke: "Why don't you open the box? We also want to see what's inside."

"Yeah."

Second Uncle echoed him and said, "Open it and take a look. We have already admitted that you are the Patriarch. What else do you have to worry about?"

Cheng Yang did not answer and quickly squatted down to pick up the lock. Only after he had locked the box again did he feel slightly relieved.

Just because...
