Su Xin mortgaged all his property and handed it over to the advertising company, preparing to launch a sweeping advertisement in C Country to drive Getchlins out of the market, so that Su Company could recover and its stock price rise.

He was very confident in this decision. Even the content of the advertisement was written by himself, to ensure that the masses would yearn for Su Company's products after watching it. As for the false elements, there are many misleading advertisements these days.

He had thought about that 1 in 10,000 possibility of failure, but he had his last life-saving card—Qin Mo. Qin Mo's feelings for his daughter would be his magic weapon.

Su Ruo, who was rejected by Qin Mo, was uneasy. She did not dare to tell Su Zhan the bad news, let alone disclose to Su Xin that Qin Mo had given up on her.

Her father had repeatedly warned her to never offend the man, and she also understood that Su Xin's value in her was due to Qin Mo's feelings for her.

Su Xin is a person who puts his own interests first. In order to let the company's name spread further, he married a famous movie star. He also forced his own daughter to interact with Qin Mo, purely to try to win him over. Furthermore, to keep hold of their authority and position in the Su Company, he raised Su Zhan up like a puppet.

In the original world, Su Zhan seemed to be the last winner. Actually, Su Company's power was in Su Xin's hands until he died in an accident.

This was an incredibly selfish man. There was nothing in his eyes that couldn't be used.

“You made a move against Du Yan?” Gu Yunxi was enjoying the afternoon sunshine when he suddenly received a notification from Jing Tian. He turned his head and stared at his lover.

“Yeah. I gave him a simple lesson.” It was indeed a lesson. Du Yan was ignorant and unskilled, he relied on Su Zhan's favor to enter university. Qin Mo only ordered someone to expel him and break one of his legs while they were at it. It was just a broken leg, it wouldn't take about three months to recover.

In the first 20 years of Du Xi's life, Du Yan was also one of the sources of his pain.

He was three years younger than Du Xi, but didn't have Du Xi's good grades nor Du Xi's good looks. People often compared him to his brother and concluded that he wasn't as good as him. So he had long borne resentment towards Du Xi. Under the influence of Du Father and Du Mother, he treated Du Xi–his older brother–worse than animals. But Du Xi spoiled Du Yan very much. After he dropped out of school, he never bore resentment against him. Instead, he obeyed his parents' orders and took out his monthly salary for Du Yan to spend.

Gu Yunxi didn't like the original Du Xi's kind and cowardly personality, but he understood and pitied him.

This person had lived in a desolate family environment since childhood, his desire for love had long been deformed. He tolerated the abuse of the Du family and tried his best to filial to Du Father and Du Mother, just to obtain a bit of sincere familial love.

As Su Xin's large-scale advertising was being carried out, the internal shareholders of Su Company' began to fight to the death against each other. When the stock price rose again, those who were observant sensed the danger lurking behind.

After Su Xin mortgaged all his assets, the advertisements he made received abnormally well results, and Su Company's slow-selling products were completely gone.

After confirming that he was right, Su Xin united some shareholders who were willing to support him again, and impatiently called for a shareholders' meeting. He triumphantly abolished the company's positions of three rival shareholders, causing them to completely lose their decision-making privileges. They could only enjoy the annual share bonus of the Su Company.

Su Zhan didn't receive Su Ruo's phone call, and she wouldn't accept any of his calls either. Due to this, he felt ill at ease and lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

When he received Su Xin's notice to let him go to the company, he thought that Du Xi had finally made a move.

On the road, the hand holding the steering wheel kept shaking. Unexpectedly, Su Xin announced his successor's position at the general meeting of shareholders and appointed him as general manager. This means that Su Xin knew nothing about Du Xi, and let him relax for the moment. But he knew that it was far from over.

Du Xi was like a time bomb buried by his side. It will explode in any moment, with a blast that would distingerate his remains

After weighing the pros and cons, Su Zhan decided to take the initiative to confess his identity to Su Xin. He and Su Xin had more than 20 years of a father-son relationship. As long as he handled things properly, he could remove himself from the situation altogether and put all his previous wrongdoings on the Du family.

That's actually the case, wasn't it? If the Du family hadn't had notions that they shouldn't have had, then this situation wouldn't have occurred. All of this had nothing to do with him in the first place.

The same day that the shareholder's meeting ended, Su Zhan followed Su Xin back home. In Su Xin's study, he told him about what had happened more than 20 years ago.

Du Father and Du Mother's boldness was something that no one would have thought of. Su Xin couldn't believe that he had actually been fooled by a couple from the countryside for so many years.

“When did you know?” He looked at Su Zhan with a hostile expression.

“Dad, do you remember the last time I was asked to go to Getchlins to discuss a business deal?” Su Zhan looked at him with admiration and said, “That is when I met Du Xi, he looked a lot like mother.”

He talked about sending people to investigate Du Xi, and spoke about the latter's past scandals. He ended it with an extremely despondent look as he expressed that he hadn't expected to get a result like this.

“Dad, I was in so much pain after learning of this matter, let alone dare to tell you. But after seeing you today, I know that I can't be so selfish. No matter what kind of person he is, he is your biological child.”

Su Xin looked at his swollen eyes and thin face, and sighed, “This is not your fault. You shouldn't be responsible for the grievances of the previous generation.” He patted Su Zhan's shoulder in reassurance and continued, "Don't tell your mother for now. I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to accept it.”

Su Zhan nodded and wiped his tears.He lowered his head and said, “Dad, I'm not qualified to be your child, I'll pack up and leave.”

“Silly child, you will always be father's child. Relax, I'll figure out the whole thing.” Su Zhan is the tool he has spent more than 20 years grooming to inherit the Su Company. How can he give him up for a biological son who he's never met?

However, the legacy he was going to give Su Zhan will have to be changed, since he's not his biological son. As for Du Xi, he'll meet him first. If he seems like he could be used, then he'll groom him for the position. If not, then he'll just give him some money to go away.

“Mr. Su, what can I do for you?” Gu Yunxi took a sip of tea and seemed very surprised that Su Xin would come to meet him.

“Xiao Xi, I am your father.” Su Xin's eyes were moist, and he held Gu Yunxi's hand tightly. He looked very excited. After learning about Du Xi's current identity, he couldn't wait to recognize his son.

In his advertising campaign, the Su Company has gradually recovered from the decline and was steadily moving forward according to his predictions. Yet if he wants to go further, the technology used had to keep up.

He had been eyeing Yun Tian's technology for a long time now. If he can get his hands on it, the Su Company can not only dominate the C Country market, but also enter the market overseas.

“What is Mr. Su talking about? Why don't I understand?” Gu Yunxi withdrew his hand and wiped it. If a certain someone knew that someone had touched him today, he would be in for some serious tossing tonight. That person was so possessive, it was frightening.

“Xiao Xi, I know you hate us and don't want to recognize dad. It doesn't matter, dad can wait until you are willing to give me a chance to compensate you.”

“Oh? And how is Mr. Su going to compensate me?” Gu Yunxi raised his eyebrows and stared at him with a sneer. He succeeded in seeing Su Xin's face freeze for a moment.

Su Xin had said that without thinking, he didn't really want to compensate him. Now he couldn't get off the stage, so he had to promise, “Dad will give you all his shares. You like research. Dad will set up an exclusive lab for you. Are you willing to come back? “

“Sure.” Gu Yunxi smiled as he replied. “Except how about you transfer all of your shares to me now, and then I'll go back with you?”

Su Xin heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the first part, but obviously he had relaxed too early. When he heard the next part, his eyes widened in extreme surprise. He just got the shares in his hands, how could he bear to give it up?

“Xiao Xi, Dad will make a will. These shares will be yours in the future.” He changed the concept and discourage Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi burst into laughter like he had heard a big joke, a few tears coming out from the corners of his eyes. “You all really take Du Xi to be a fool. In consideration of our shared blood, you can go now.” This was the original self's biological father, a person who only wanted to use him from beginning to end even after knowing everything.
