After the unpleasant gathering, everyone decided to head home.
Yun Lingxin character change when they finally arrived home, he grabbed the young man's arms and glared at him. "Lin, what were you thinking saying something so outrageous earlier."
The young man could only laugh as he pushed his father's hand aside, "Come on, father... I didn't say anything bad at all... I didn't even mention her name..."
It frustrates the woman seeing the two quarreling again, she stepped in between them and looked coldly at the man, "Leave him be, he did nothing wrong. Yun Bai didn't even react, why are you overreacting?"
"Xiang Lan, why do you always defend him even when his wrong." The man yelled furiously seeing the woman continued to stop him from disciplining their son.
"Father, you should be proud of me. Since Yun Shen show no interest for the business and Yun Bai of course can't inherit it, my only competition is now Yun Lei and Yun Zexi."
The man didn't know whether he should praise the boy for his ridiculous remarks or laughed that he actually planned everything. "So, you actually have thought of everything."
"I'm not that stupid as you think father... Despite grandfather has not divided the shares yet, the fact you and Uncle Zexian both already hold a share of the company, the possibility that it will fall to either Uncle or us in the end..."
"Lin is right, it's best we take down the competition one at a time. Yun Zexi is still young and studying abroad who knows when he'll be coming back. As for Yun Lei, she's already working at the company. It's best if you find a position for Lin as well. Cause right now, not only is that b*stard boy working in the company, he has his own company as well thanks to his ridiculous girlfriend help." Xiang Lan explained as she seated on the couch.
"As you know, Uncle Shizhen became in charge of the company because of the project collaboration with the Feng. If by chance we collaborate with Lord Knightley or have him invest in our project, I'm sure it would please grandfather when he returns." Yun Lin proudly explained, please of what he has come up with.
Yun Lingxin did not expect his wife and son have actually planned everything ahead already. His wife was a daughter of a rich tycoon and right now business with his father-in-law has been stable but not so great. If he collaborated with Lord Knightley or the Zhao family, it would indeed be a great success.
"Then, I'll find a way to collaborate with Lord Knightley. At the same time, it might be interesting to look for the Young Princess..."
...
At the same time, Yun Zexian and his family were also discussing what happened during dinner at their own home.
"I can't believe that idiot Lin actually said something like that in front of everyone." Yun Lei giggled while the servant brought in some snacks and drinks for them.
"He might have said something stupid but it was clever, the fact he was able to break Yun Bai's esteem down." Wan Jin grab the tea and started drinking it.
"Shizhen is not saying anything. He is not even disclosing if he has any major projects." Yun Zexian clenched his fist as he slams it on the chair's armrest.
"Father, don't worry... Brother is doing so well in University now. He has achieved so well... The fact Bro Shen shows no interest in the company, Zexi will surely inherit it since grandfather does favor him a lot." Yun Lei explained, coaxing his father to ease.
"You right, you better contact your brother and ask how he's doing. At the same time, focus on your work at the company. We need to get a better result so when the old man returns, he sees your great achievement."
The man looked at his daughter as he thought to himself. 'Hmm, I just need to make sure that Yun Lin doesn't work in the company. Yun Bai is already a bother having a good position in the company at the same time owning his own business already. Despite the fact that he may be dating the country, most viral actress right now, she is still an heiress of the Long family.'
"Don't worry, news about Long Yiyi won't die so easily. I'll make sure Yun Bai won't be able to keep his head up when the old man returned." Wan Jin said, since she works as a Chief Editor at one of the local newspapers.
"You do that, we need to find some dirt on Yun Bai and Yun Lin to make sure our Zexi will inherit the company for sure." Yun Lei proudly said
"It's good that you're supportive of your little brother..." Yun Zexian caresses the girl's head.
"Of course father, all I need to do is to marry into a good family which can help brother in the future as well."
"No worries baby, mother will help you find a suitable husband." The woman embraces her daughter please that she has raised her well.
...
Meanwhile, back in the Yun's main home.
Yun Shizhen was arguing with Zho Xinya as well.
"Where is he... Why is he not yet here?"
"I told you, he already went home since Little Yan needs to rest."
"Did you see what he just did? What did I ever do wrong to have such a son like him... Didn't I give him everything when he was growing up?"
"You did, but you pushed him to be the best and looked at what it got you..."
The man was so furious, he pinched the skin between his eyebrows and sighed, "I did all of that so I can give him a better future, I worked so hard to gain father approval to have the position I have now. But, what's the point if he does not care about it at all. How I wish he was the b*stard and not Bai."
Hearing the man's words upset the woman, but she let it be and just sat down on the bed. "Then do it, marry Kong Jingyi so Bai could be your heir."
It surprised the man that his wife actually dare told him to marry the mistress. Never in their life as a couple has the woman every said something so absurd. It ache his heart to see the woman kept her composure despite she must be upset deep inside. He loved her and sometimes wonder how did he make such a mistake and slept with Kong Jingyi. "Xinya, I'm sorry... I didn't mean what I said. I'll never marry her for I love you. You don't know how much you mean to me..."
The man went down on his knees and looked down, "I'm just angry at my brothers. Since they are pushing me at my ends. You know I love you and Shen a lot. Both of you are my joy so is Little Yan. It's just, I don't know what to do with him, I don't know how I can be a father to him when I'm giving him the best opportunity in life yet he won't grab it. Instead, he rather works at a different company and become a slave when he can be his own boss."
The woman already had teary eyes from hearing the man's words, yet she did not shed a single tear but instead lifted the man's head to face her. "Maybe it's time for you to trust your son more and let him be. I know, when the time comes, he will be your greatest blessing..."
He did not say a word back and embrace the woman instead, but his subconscious continued to think of the woman's words all over his head.
'Shen, become my greatest blessing... I wonder how much prayers I need to do in front of Buddha for that to happen. The boy is too cold and aloof, what blessing will he be able to give me.'
