The word 'Fu Ziyu' was displayed on WeChat on the mobile phone, which was Shi Yunnan's best friend abroad.
Shi Yunnan rubbed his swollen temples and connected the voice call. The next second, the strong disco music at the other end of the video came over.
"You're at the bar again? It's so noisy."
"Wait." After the phone was noisy for a while, it was relatively quiet, and Fu Ziyu on the other end said, "I sent you several messages and didn't reply. Is Mr. Shi okay?"
Fu Ziyu, his best friend, knew about Shi Yunnan's return to China.
"What can be wrong? I think the old man is strong, and I think he can live another seventy or eighty years."
Shi Yunnan dealt with it, and told his friends about the outrageous encounter at the dinner table last night as a joke.
After Fu Ziyu heard it, he immediately started ranting, "Absolutely, what are you all carrying in your head?"
"I have left you abroad for all these years. Now that the company has a problem, I want to use your life-long event as a bargaining chip in exchange for interests? I bah!"
"If you want me to tell you, you should have followed your brother back to Wen's house, so why stay in Shi's house and suffer from this anger."
Shi Yunnan raised his eyebrows and did not refute.
In fact, he also has a twin brother. When Shi's mother died, the two brothers were only seven years old. The Shi and Wen families, who were supposed to be in-laws, happened to have a lot of conflicts at that juncture, and even fought for the support of the brothers. right.
In the end, the two brothers followed the family alone.
My brother followed my grandfather back to Wen's house and changed his surname to Wen Yibei.
As the younger brother, Shi Yunnan stayed in the Shi family as the second young master, but was sent out of the country by the Shi family cruelly within a year.
Shi Yunnan and Fu Ziyu have known each other for many years, and the latter knows the general family situation.
Fu Ziyu faced his friend and dared to jump out of anything across the phone screen, "By the way, what is the name of your stepmother's child? Why didn't Mr. Shi and your father let him marry?"
"... Xie Keyue." Shi Yunnan was subtle for a moment, and the plot of the dream appeared in his mind again.
"Yes, then Xie Keyue's identity as 'third young master' sounds good, but you are the blood of the Shi family. Your brother returned to the Wen family early, and now the old man has let you into the Luo family?"
"I didn't say, is this old man confused? I have taken a child with a foreign surname as a treasure all these years, and my mind has shifted to the west. Is it possible that the company's assets will be handed over to Xie Keyue in the future?"
The last sentence is purely Fu Ziyu's eloquence, but the speaker has no intention of listening.
Shi Yunnan raised his brows in a rare way, the reality and the dream actually had a real sense of handover again—
At the end of the original book, Xie Keyue indeed took all the assets of the Shi family alone.
And Mr. Shi declared to the public: Xie Keyue changed his surname back to 'Shi' and was the veritable heir of the Shi family.
You know, Mr. Shi is the most traditional type of person.
Is he really willing to hand over all the assets he has worked hard all his life over into the hands of a child who is not related by blood
Obviously unlikely.
Dreams and reality are intertwined, and Shi Yunnan, who was in deep thought, made a suspicious guess.
"Hello? Yunnan? Why didn't you speak?"
"It's alright." Shi Yunnan gathered his thoughts and glanced at the packed suitcase in the corner, "I have scheduled a flight at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. See you abroad when I arrive."
He is not a puppet at the mercy of others, there is no place for him in this family, and now he is trying to treat his marriage as a 'deal', of course, the farther away, the better.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back. I'll wrap up the newly opened bar on Financial Outer Street, and I'll clean it up for you and get rid of bad luck."
Shi Yunnan teased and chuckled, "Brother Fu, go get your babes, don't use me as an excuse."
The phone hangs up.
The smile at the corner of Shi Yunnan's mouth quickly solidified, and he fell back into that realistic dream scene.
To be honest, Shi Yunnan doesn't have much desire for the inheritance of the Shi family's property. In comparison, he has another thing that he is eager to determine.
…
ten minutes later.
As soon as Shi Yunnan went down the stairs, he heard Mr. Shi's dissatisfied scolding, "I didn't wake up until this point, you are really used to being lazy abroad!"
A new day, a new scolding.
Shi Yunnan twitched the corners of his mouth speechlessly, and before he could refute, someone spoke for him.
"Grandpa, Yunnan only came back from abroad yesterday, and the jet lag hasn't come back. Anyway, you're at your own home, so don't blame him."
The person who spoke for him was the 'third young master' Xie Keyue as the servants called him.
He slowly poured a cup of ginseng tea for the old man, and then he met Shi Yunnan's eyes friendly, "Yunnan, come and sit, I was out last night, and I didn't have time to catch the wind and wash the dust for you."
Shi Yunnan smiled indifferently, and looked at each other silently near the table.
In fact, the two have no contact at all in private, let alone feelings. Shi Yunnan only had a superficial impression of this 'half-brother'—
The other party's temperament follows that of his mother, Xie Wei, and his daily openings are pleasant and pleasant. Since he entered Shi's house, the elders have been coaxed into obedience, and even the servants shouted 'three young masters' respectfully.
But in yesterday's dream, Xie Keyue was a real ruthless character.
He is a book-wearer, and he is a genius who has mastered all the plot lines. From the beginning, laughing and pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, to the follow-up sharp-edged decisiveness, every step he takes is within his plan.
Following his followers, he can also get a little sweetness; on the contrary, the enemies who oppose him will only end up worse than the other, without exception.
Yesterday the young servant approached and asked in a low voice, "Second Young Master, shall I go to the kitchen to get you some hot breakfast?"
In fact, it was only half past nine, but before the second young master got up and went downstairs, Madam had someone tidy up the table, and now there were only a few slices of bread and a bottle of jam left on the table.
"No need, I'll just eat these." Shi Yunnan didn't care at all, after all, the content of the next conversation didn't seem to be enough to eat breakfast with peace of mind.
Mr. Shi took two glances and asked the servant to pour a glass of warm milk for Shi Yunnan for the first time ever.
Just before the warmth fermented, he brought up the old things again, "Yunnan, have you thought about it? After you have thought about it, let's have dinner with the Luo family in the evening. The two of us can discuss the matter of engagement."
Before I even had a bite of bread, I couldn't wait to ask.
Really ruined mood.
As expected, Shi Yunnan smiled and asked, "What if I say I don't want to?"
Seeing that he was still singing the opposite, Mr. Shi expressed his attitude in a deep voice, "You have no choice, you must listen to me about this matter! You are the son of our Shi family, and you have the blood of the Shi family in your bones. The family has raised you for so many years. , you must do your best in the face of the crisis.”
The old man was as strong as always, and his faintly angry tone made everyone fall into silence.
Only Xie Keyue stroked the old man's back, trying to smooth out the awkward atmosphere, "Grandpa, this matter can't be rushed, no matter what, we have to give Yunnan and that young master Luo time to get to know each other."
"You also said that Yunnan has the blood of the Shi family in his bones. His heart is for this family, and he will definitely help the company to tide over the difficulties together."
This passage is eloquent and subtle.
At first glance, it seemed to appease the old man's anger, and it gave Shi Yunnan time to prepare mentally, but after thinking about it, it was like putting the latter on the moral judgment point.
If Shi Yunnan was unwilling to marry, and if Shi Jiazhen went bankrupt, wouldn't he be the culprit in name
Shi Yunnan was playing with the cutlery, and at this moment, Xie Keyue had a real feeling in a dream.
In dealing with people, there is no leakage, but he secretly plays people in the palm of his hand.
Xie Wei was ready to clear her throat and immediately joined the persuasion camp, "Yunnan, listen to me, that young master Luo is only one year older than you."
"Isn't it very popular among young people to fall in love after marriage? It doesn't matter if you don't know each other now. You will become familiar with each other when you meet more often, and your relationship will be able to work out."
"This Luo family can be regarded as a top wealthy family in the whole country. If you enter the Luo family, you will definitely enjoy it!"
"Take ten thousand steps back and say that if you really feel inappropriate in the future, you can negotiate a peaceful divorce if you have the ability, right?"
After finishing speaking, Xie Wei did not forget to use her elbow to point at the silent husband beside her.
Shi Sheng took a sip of water and said in a muffled voice, "Well, according to the matchmaker's order, the matter is settled."
"Are you done? It's my turn to talk." Shi Yunnan raised his eyebrows and took the family's faces into his eyes.
One is tough and angry, one is pretending to be mild, one is fanning the flames, and one is dull and persecuting...
This is not a family, and it is really impossible to enter a family.
He couldn't help it, and laughed sarcastically.
Xie Wei blurted out dissatisfaction, "What are you laughing at?"
In the next second, Shi Yunnan's eyes locked on her, "Aunt Xie, you said that I went to Luo's house to enjoy the blessing, then I will give this blessing to your own son, do you want it?"
Shi Yunnan has a pair of beautiful almond eyes. Originally, this type of eyes is the easiest to look innocent and innocent, but there is an inexplicable wildness in his eyes.
It's like a sly fox pretending to be good, grinning when dealing with people, and can jump up and bite at any time.
Xie Wei was taken aback by his straight eyes, and subconsciously explained it for her child, "What does this have to do with Xiaoyue?"
"Why doesn't it matter?" Shi Yunnan raised the corner of his mouth and glanced at Xie Keyue, "Although you are not the blood of the Shi family, you have been raised by you as the third young master for so many years."
"Since it is said that love first and then love, it's not the same who gets married? It's all about exchanging children's happiness for money, of course you can contribute."
If the plot of the original book in the dream is true, then Xie Keyue and the young master of the Luo family will know each other sooner or later.
Fighting back with the original words Xie Wei had said, with thorns in every sentence, Shi Yunnan blocked the former speechless like a series of slaps.
Mr. Shi frowned and expressed his dissatisfaction, "Yunnan, have you had enough trouble?"
"Noisy?" Shi Yunnan picked up the cutlery and tapped the glass, his smile became more and more interesting, "Not very much."
He leaned back and put on a reasonable attitude, "Grandpa, Dad, even if I have been thrown abroad by you all the year round, but you have something to say - I am the blood of the Shi family. The second young master of the Shi family."
Although, he doesn't want this ridiculous identity.
"Xie Keyue is just the child of Aunt Xie and her ex-husband..."
"Shut me up!"
"Yunnan! Don't lose your senses!"
Mr. Shi and Father Shi stopped drinking at the same time, but Shi Yunnan was about to finish speaking. He smashed the bread fork in his hand on the plate, and sneered and threw out—
"I don't care about my own blood, but I love other people's children! What? Xie Keyue is also the root of your Shi family?"
The last sentence was deliberately turned up, and it smashed the entire restaurant into silence like a bombshell.
"..."
Xie Ke frowned uncontrollably.
He had no idea that Shi Yunnan's temper was so wild, that he dared to tear his face with this big family in public. Originally, he was just watching a play quietly and passing the rounds, but he was forced into the water at this moment.
Shi Sheng and Xie Wei glanced at each other, their faces swelled, as if they had been punctured by something.
Mr. Shi took two breaths in silence, and answered irrelevantly, "So what? What about no? Don't think about changing the subject, you must end this marriage for me!"
Shi Yunnan took their reactions into his eyes, and the original fog-like confusion was completely clear. This temptation, the plot in the dream actually really matches the reality—
Xie Keyue is the blood of the Shi family, and it is possible that Shi Sheng cheated during the marriage!
The old man knew this, and only agreed to let Xie Wei enter the Shi family back then, and he has secretly cultivated Xie Keyue as his successor over the years.
In the end, he willingly handed Shi's assets to Xie Keyue.
Up to now, Shi Yunnan didn't want to explore the reason why they hid the truth of Xie Keyue's identity, but was filled with anger—
His biological mother, Wen Min, was a well-known lady, and the Shi and Wen families also had some elements of marriage.
Wen Min's heart is not very good, and the doctor suggested medical abortion when she was pregnant with twins, but she loves her husband too much, and she can't bear the two little lives in her belly.
After giving birth to twins through hardships, Wen Min was completely infected with the root of the disease, and later died of a heart attack.
But now it seems that what Shi Sheng has done
She cheated during her pregnancy, sent Shi Yunnan out of the country after her death, brought in her cheating partner and extramarital son, and now she is trying to use him for money to fill the hole!
absurd! ridiculous!
Originally, Shi Yunnan didn't dare to think deeply because he still had the last shreds of expectations for this family, but now there is nothing left.
"Whoever ends this marriage is none of my business!" Shi Yunan sneered, and suddenly got up and walked out, not even planning to take a suitcase.
How can Mr. Shi, who has been tough for most of his life, allow someone in this family to be disobedient
He roared angrily, "Shi Yunnan! Are you going to rebel? Someone has tied him up for me, and I won't even want to step out of this house until I get engaged!"
As soon as the voice fell, the guard ran in, "Old man, sir, someone from the Luo family is here!"
Shi Sheng heard the words and hurriedly asked, "The Luo family? Who is here?"
The doorman was in a hurry, and he didn't even catch his breath, "Wei, the leader is a man in a wheelchair, we didn't dare to stop them, they're almost here!"
