Chapter 1852 Abandoned Son
Chapter 1852 Abandoned Son
The Xiao family is now truly powerless.
The Fu family is not afraid of a direct confrontation.
They fought to a standstill, and were both warned that if they continued playing like this, they would both be eliminated.
The Fu family are all lunatics, so they're not afraid, but the Xiao family is.
More importantly, this battle not only weakened the Xiao family but also damaged its very foundation.
Wealthy and powerful families are inherently arenas where people vie for fame and fortune.
When you're in a high position, others fear you on one hand, and on the other hand, they're doing everything they can to bring you down.
Once you're injured, those people are like sharks, drawn by the smell of blood, they pounce and tear you apart, they won't stop until they've ripped you to pieces and swallowed you whole.
At least, that's the current situation for the Xiao family.
The next heir has disappeared and become someone else's plaything...
The key point is that the other person is a man, and a man known for being a madman!
When Fu Wenjun first posted photos to officially announce the news, Xiao's stock price immediately plummeted to its daily limit.
Every time Fu Wenjun posted a photo after that, Xiao's stock price would plummet. The shareholders who saw the price drop suffered heart attacks one after another.
In just one month, the Xiao family's assets shrank by more than half.
What's even more infuriating is that Xiao Qi's personal assets, that new energy vehicle company, were targeted by the Zhou family because it was leaderless...
Now that it's in the Zhou family's possession, the Xiao family has suffered a huge loss.
They lost everything, from property to people.
Grandpa Xiao, Xiao Yuanshan, was so angry that he broke his cane in two.
"Investigate! Dig three feet into the ground, find my grandson! I want the Fu family to die a horrible death!!"
His precious grandson, always the one in a superior position—yes, literally—is now being suppressed by a man…
Under the body.
How could this conservative old man accept?
What grudge could they possibly hold? This is an attempt to wipe out the Xiao family line!
Xiao Qi hasn't even left an heir for the Xiao family yet, how come she's already...getting involved with a man? And she's the one being taken advantage of...
What a shame! !
The entire Xiao family has been staying home lately, afraid to go out, lest people laugh at them for being "rabbit gods" (a derogatory term for unlucky people)...
There are others in the clan who enjoy this kind of thing, but they never imagined that one day they would be unable to hold their heads high because of this reputation.
Now, the Fu family has become their mortal enemy.
They couldn't compete with the Fu family in business, so what underhanded tactics did they resort to?
Heh, they're doing this in secret. The Fu family comes from the underworld; they're even more shady than them.
The Yan family in Hong Kong is ruthless and unscrupulous. They grab whatever makes money quickly. Forget about underhanded tactics, the Yan family could easily wipe out the entire Xiao family.
The Xiao family has lost both openly and covertly, and now they have no other thoughts except to find Xiao Qi as soon as possible.
What happens after it's found?
Of course, we should hurry up and make him produce a few grandsons, so that Xiao Qi can stay home and enjoy his old age. After all, he is no longer suitable to represent the Xiao family in any place.
They will do everything they can to nurture his next generation.
Of course, to prevent a recurrence of the Xiao Qi incident, they can't have an only child this time; the more grandchildren the better.
Oh, if you can't create them naturally, it's not like you can't use support characters. After all, support technology is so advanced now, you can create as many as you want, and just choose male characters!
Alas, poor Xiao Qi. He fell into Fu Wenjun's clutches, and in just over a month, he has become a discarded son of the Xiao family. His purpose for the rest of his life is to try his best to produce an heir for the Xiao family...
These are things he probably didn't expect when he first came to Hecheng.
How could he have imagined this? He was simply after a woman he fancied, wanting to engage in a power struggle with her...
As a result, he became the one who got played...
Not to mention him, even Shen Xi herself didn't expect things to get out of control like this.
It almost triggered a financial crisis, causing many companies to go bankrupt and be liquidated. Of course, some people stumbled, while others reaped the rewards. Wealth never disappears; it only shifts...
This time, Chen Chuan said it had nothing to do with him, but she refused to believe him no matter what.
Honestly, this kind of multi-faceted, one-shot-many-birds-with-one-stone approach is practically etched with Chen Chuan's name. Tsk tsk tsk, Xiao Qi is truly unlucky in life. Of all people to mess with, he had to provoke Chen Chuan. This time, he's really kicked a hornet's nest, hasn't he?
That was probably the biggest obstacle I've ever faced, the kind that would break my leg.
However, on the other hand, no one expected that the person most engrossed in this drama would be Fan Like.
He was so anxious that he returned to Hecheng from the Northwest and spent every day asking people to find out where Fu Wenjun was.
Unfortunately, if even the Xiao family couldn't find out, he had no chance.
Then... he came to ask Shen Xi.
Shen Xi looked completely bewildered: "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"
"Ask A-Chuan."
So self-righteous and confident.
There is nothing in this world that A-Chuan doesn't know.
Thank you, you have a lot of confidence in your brother Chuan.
How could you think he could know?
"Oh, a man's intuition."
Shen Xi punched him: "Then ask your gut feeling, are you going to get beaten up next?"
Fan Like yelled and walked away.
Naturally, they didn't get anything out of him.
After dinner, while Chen Chuan was clearing away the dishes, Shen Xi asked him curiously.
"How about we make a trade?"
"What in exchange?"
Hehe, this time she's well-prepared and completely confident.
Shen Xi leaned in and whispered something to her, but before she could finish, she reached out and grabbed a little boy. Cai Bao immediately grinned at his mother and said, "What are you talking about? Let me hear it too."
Shen Xi didn't understand what Cai Bao was saying.
She looked at Chen Chuan: "What language does your daughter speak?"
"German."
Shen Xi:......
"You were taught by your fourth sister?"
"Ah."
“Isn’t our fourth sister going a bit too far? A while ago, Caibao was speaking French to me every day, and now I can even say a few words of Bonjour, Bonsoir, Au revoir, and Merci to people.”
"We're not done with French yet, and now German is coming too! Help! Is your sister trying to make Caibao learn several languages?"
What, are you trying to train a diplomat who is fluent in multiple languages for the Chen family?
“No,” Caibao said in English, “French wasn’t taught by Fourth Aunt, it was taught by Xuxu.”
Shen Xi:......
Sorry to bother you, I forgot about him. He used to make money as a translator, and I heard he was fluent in at least eight languages. Listen to that, at least, I don't know at most, because there's no limit to genius.
"What about English?"
"The English was taught in kindergarten." Chen Chuan smiled. "Honey, have you forgotten? The biggest joy that teacher Yuya enjoys every day is conversing with Caibao in English at kindergarten?"
