3 min read791 wordsMature
“The old man told me today that he was pissed off by you this time.” Said Huai Jing. He was sitting in the private room while looking at He Yu, who was holding a wine glass.
Huai Jing was his cousin. His father married one of the He Family’s women, which meant his grandfather was also Huai Jing’s grandfather. Old Master He had only three grandchildren left for him. First was He Yu, then the second was Huai Jing, and the last was Huai Guan, Huai Jing’s sister.
To the old man, the three grandchildren were all treated equally and were very close, which made the relationship between the three grandchildren very close.
Huai Jing was the eldest grandson of Huai Family and one of the Four young bachelors. He had just finished his medical education last year and returned home. At present, he was in charge of a jewelry group under Huai Group companies.
Compared to He Yu’s gentle and noble manner, Huai Jing was cold and exquisite. The two men sat there, each with their own handsome features, which made people unable to move their eyes.
He naturally understood why the old man would get pissed off at him. The feud between He Group and Shuncheng Group could be traced back to 20 years ago. After so many years, the old man could still remember it as clear as if it happened on that day.
However, what made him really angry was how his only grandson married the eldest daughter of the Shuncheng Group.
Hearing Huai Jing’s words, He Yu only smiled. He knew the old man’s body condition and knew the anger was real, but he knew that his body condition didn’t have any relation to why he was pissed off.#pleasereadthis chapteratfoxaholic.com
Looking at He Yu’s elegant smile, Huai Jing’s peach blossom eyes were slightly raised and he asked, “Is the cooperation with the Shuncheng Group going well?”
“Hmm.” The ice in the glass had not melted, refracting the light when He Yu faintly responded. He had just returned from Jingcheng when Huai Jing asked him to go to the bar. He didn’t like the noise of the bar, but the room was clean.
The collaboration with the Shuncheng Group had been initiated before his marriage. He was busy with the He Group in Jingcheng and would be even busier with this when he returned.
Compared to the other families, the He family only had him as a grandson, and there was nothing within the He group to fight over. However, the external problems were more serious, and Xia City’s building materials market was dominated by the Shuncheng Group, which created a certain degree of hindrance to the development of the He Group’s real estate industry. And, twenty years ago, the building materials market was originally dominated by the He family.
That was when the feud between the two families started.
Huai Jing sipped his wine as he looked out the window at the ground floor. The room they were in had the best view of the second floor of the bar, with large floor-to-ceiling windows just across the middle of the first floor dance floor. It wasn’t time to make a scene yet, and there was a show playing on the bar stage.
“You said that you got married, but it was better to marry Su Gongcheng’s second daughter. The future of the Shuncheng Group might also be in the hands of the second daughter. After his death, whatever belongs to his daughter will naturally be yours as well.”
He Yu heard Huaijing’s words, he paused his drink and said lightly, “I’ve always been bad at waiting.”
“So what are you good at?” Huai Jing smiled.
Since his hand was empty, He Yu poured himself a glass. His expression was still gentle as he smiled and replied, “I’m good at snatching it myself.”
The two were of similar age and had grown up together, becoming very close. Naturally, Huai Jing knew He Yu. He was gentle on the surface, yet decisive. People who appeared to be different on the surface were actually the most ruthless.#pleasereadthis chapteratfoxaholic.com
Huai Jing grunted and said, “You’re not snatching it, you’re robbing it.”
He Yu did not deny Huai Jing’s retort and only smiled lightly.
The two continued to chat about work-related matters and, after a while, Huai Jing glanced in the direction of the first floor.
The bar was dimly lit and cluttered. After looking at it for a long time, his peachy eyes picked at something then turned to He Yu.
“Isn’t that my little sister-in-law?”
He Yu slightly raised his eyes and looked past him, seeing the woman standing in the middle of the stage.
It was Su Qiuzi.
