Chapter 1746 - 2048: Taking a Stand (Part 2)
Hmph!
Nanrong Hao let out a cold laugh and asked, "Then why don’t you allow Chen to step foot into the Nanrong Family anymore? Mom, although you are my mother, it seems like it’s not your place to make decisions for the Nanrong Family."
Hearing this, Jiang Yue’e’s face darkened as she frowned and said, "Little Hao, is this the tone you use to speak to your elders?"
"I’m only polite to elders I respect, and you... to be honest, I don’t even know how to face you." Nanrong Hao said coldly, "I know what you’ve done to Sister, no wonder she’s been acting strange since she came back. Now I finally understand why..."
"No, it’s not like that!" Jiang Yue’e hurriedly explained, "Little Hao, listen to me. Everything I did was for the good of you and your siblings."
"Good?" Nanrong Hao sneered, "I really can’t see what’s so good about it. All I see is you treating us like puppets, everything has to go according to your thoughts, as if we don’t have our own minds. The sister living with you now is not the real Sister. If she can’t return to her original self, then I will never recognize her. Today, not only did I lose a sister, but I also lost a mother."
Listening to Nanrong Hao’s ruthless words, Jiang Yue’e’s face finally changed, turning extremely pale.
"Little Hao, listen to my explanation, I..."
"No need to explain." Nanrong Hao impatiently waved his hand, interrupting Jiang Yue’e, and said coldly, "This is the Nanrong Family. Please take those two irrelevant people and leave immediately. I don’t want to see you anymore."
"Little Hao, you..." Jiang Yue’e wanted to say something, but Nanrong Hao was not interested in listening to her explanations and went straight to Nanrong Yong’s residence.
Watching Nanrong Hao’s departing figure, Jiang Yue’e stood there dazed, somewhat at a loss. All of this was out of her expectations. She thought no one would know about Nanrong Wanqing’s situation, but she didn’t expect that Ling Chen actually knew about the Number Six Serum and even told Nanrong Hao about it.
At this moment, she didn’t know how to make amends anymore.
Moreover, if Nanrong Hao told Nanrong Yong about it... she couldn’t imagine what would happen next.
Lost in thought, she gritted her teeth and turned back to the villa.
At this moment, outside the Nanrong Family estate, Ling Chen slowly drove away from Wealthy Manor.
"Ling, what’s going on with the chairman?" It was none other than Zhong Wei speaking. He and Liang Zhao Hui had both been dismissed by Nanrong Wanqing and could only leave with Ling Chen.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Liang Zhao Hui looked depressed and said, "The chairman seemed like a different person after returning, nothing we did pleased them."
Ling Chen smiled slightly and said, "It’s okay. Since you’ve been dismissed, you should take this opportunity to have a good vacation. All expenses will be covered by the company."
"Haha! You’re the real deal, Ling."
As soon as the words fell, the ringtone from Zhong Wei’s phone suddenly rang. He pulled out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and said, "It’s the vice president calling."
The call connected, and whatever Nanrong Hao said on the other end, Zhong Wei responded and then hung up, smiling wryly and said, "Ling, it seems there’s a big change in the company. The vice president wants us to go to the company and gather all the employees."
Ling Chen nodded and said, "Then you might have to work a bit more. Stay by Haozi’s side and ensure his safety during this period."
"Alright." After saying that, Zhong Wei turned the car around and headed straight to the Hongyu Group headquarters.
Ling Chen, having nothing else to do, went along as well.
Upon reaching the destination, Zhong Wei and Liang Zhao Hui went to work, while Ling Chen went alone to the security office, crossed his legs, and casually picked up a magazine to read.
After more than an hour had passed, the office door was pushed open from outside. Then, Nanrong Hao strode in and called out, "Chen."
Ling Chen tossed the magazine in his hand onto the desk, looked at Nanrong Hao and said, "I just heard from Captain Zhong that there’s a big change in the company, what’s going on?"
"I consulted Grandpa and decided to revoke Sister’s position as chairman and succeed as chairman myself. From now on, Sister has nothing to do with Hongyu Group anymore." Saying this, Nanrong Hao pulled up a chair and sat beside Ling Chen, looking helpless, he said, "This is the only way. Although I know in my heart that nothing about Sister has changed, except for the memories with you. But even so, I still feel uneasy. Grandpa and I did this to make my mother repent. Sister has been in Hongyu Group for many years and has never set up a private account. It’s always been using the Nanrong Family’s account. Now, Grandpa has revoked Sister’s usage rights, and they can forget about taking a penny from Hongyu Group in the future."
Ling Chen shook his head and said, "Money is not important to them, don’t forget, your new brother-in-law is a billionaire whose wealth is no less than your Nanrong Family."
Nanrong Hao said indifferently, "That’s their business, it has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I’ve made my stance clear, if my mom continues to be obstinate, then I will never acknowledge her in my lifetime. After all, I’ve lived well for these decades without her."
He paused and couldn’t help asking, "Chen, do you think my sister can regain her original memories?"
"This... is hard to say." Ling Chen smiled bitterly and said, "As far as I know, the serum your mom injected Wanqing with has no antidote. The only way is to take our chances."
"Chen, what do you plan to do? Are you really willing to watch my sister live happily with another man?"
Ling Chen rubbed his temples and said, "I really don’t know what to do now. We can only take it one step at a time. If my guess is correct, after your mom and sister leave the Nanrong Family, they will definitely go abroad with that Yang He. That’s what worries me. If they go abroad, it will be hard to meet them in the future."
"Sigh!" Nanrong Hao sighed, "If I had known this, I shouldn’t have driven them away."
"It’s not your fault." After speaking, Ling Chen stood up and gently patted Nanrong Hao on the shoulder, saying, "Don’t think too much, there will always be a way. You are now the new chairman of Hongyu Group. There’s a long way ahead. Do your best. If anything happens, come to me, I’ll support you from behind."
Watching Ling Chen walk towards the door, Nanrong Hao asked, "Chen, where are you going?"
Without looking back, Ling Chen waved his hand and said, "I have some personal matters to deal with, you go ahead and get busy, no need to see me off."
Upon leaving the Hongyu Group headquarters, a Range Rover drove up from a short distance away, stopping in front of Ling Chen. The car door opened, and Ling Chen got in, asking, "Is everything ready?"
