Chapter 278: Xiang Huai’s Little Idol Has Fallen (12)
Let’s say that Xue Chun became a businessman and Xue Xi was really not interested in managing the company, it would not be impossible for this pair of cousins to have the same temperament.
However, Xue Sheng taking the initiative to give the company to Xue Chun was completely different from this group of people deciding on their own who the company’s successor would be!
Xue Sheng had never felt so lost and adrift, as though he had been abandoned by the entire world.
It was already December. The piercing cold wind could not compare to the chill in his heart.
He looked at the old patriarch and then at Xue Gui. After a while, he smiled bitterly. “Dad, actually, why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
Old Master Xue was stunned. “Son?”
Xue Sheng said, “The company was founded by you and me. Back then, your second son was still in school. After it was founded, I was the one who was running it.”
The moment he said this, Xue Gui shouted, “Brother, what do you mean? We haven’t split up back then. The money you earned was from home! Are you planning to kick me away? No way!”
Seeing how agitated and stubborn he was, Xue Sheng felt numb inside.
He slowly said, “I’ve never thought of splitting up, nor have I thought about who the company will be left to. At that time, my family was poor, and I only wanted my family to live a good life, so I worked hard.”
While he was staying up late, Xue Gui was playing in the bars.
When he first started this business, Xue Gui asked him for money to buy a computer and started playing games every day.
At that time, he wanted to bring Xue Gui to do business, but he was always sleepy and tired. He shouted and scolded, and his mother let him have a good rest. She even said to Xue Sheng, “The second son is still young. He should go out and explore more.”
Hence, Xue Gui had developed into his current self.
He felt that he was responsible. Even though Xue Gui had never paid a single cent in the company, Xue Sheng had given him a quarter of the shares when they separated!
He only took a quarter of the house!
At that time, the old patriarch had given him all his shares and money for him to manage. At that time, he thought that the old patriarch trusted him, but now that he thought about it, the old patriarch was probably just trying to calm him down.
Ha.
To think that he thought that the old patriarch was the best to him in the family.
That’s right, because only he could work!
Who wouldn’t understand this principle?
However…
I see!
He slowly said, “Dad, Mom, I owe you guys. Is it alright for me to use the company to repay you?”
The moment he said this, Old Master Xue lifted his head and looked at him in disbelief. “Son, you… What do you mean?”
Xue Sheng said slowly, “If you want to give the company to Xue Chun, fine, I’ll give it to him. Not only will I give him your shares, but I’ll also give him all my shares.”
The old patriarch was instantly overjoyed. “Son, are you serious? This… I definitely won’t let Xue Xi suffer any losses. I’ll leave my cash to Xue Xi and guarantee that she won’t have to worry about food and drink for the rest of her life. What do you think?”
Xue Sheng lowered his eyes. “No need.”
Just as the old patriarch was about to say something, Old Lady Xue said, “Son, you’ve finally stopped being muddle-headed! You have to know that the lass will be married off sooner or later. The one who will provide for you in the future is Xue Chun! Xue Gui, quickly thank your elder brother!”
Xue Gui was also pleasantly surprised. “Brother, hehe. Look, if you had told me about this earlier, there wouldn’t have been so many misunderstandings, right? You’re the best at doing business. I’ll definitely not object to you managing the company in the future!”
The three of them tried to please him, making Xue Sheng felt appeased and not pitiful.
He looked up at Xue Gui. “No need. Don’t you want to be the chairman? I’ll give the position to you.”
Xue Gui was stunned. “Huh?”
Xue Sheng said, “I’ll hand in my resignation tomorrow. Since the project is not settled, as the chairman, I should indeed resign.”
Xue Gui was stunned. He looked at Steve. “But wasn’t the project settled quickly? That was all a misunderstanding!”
Xue Sheng said, “If you have the shamelessness to go back and forth on this project, then I won’t have to sacrifice my dignity! Xiao Xiang, since you know how to speak Italian, go and negotiate with them and apologize!”
When Xiang Huai heard this, he turned to look at the two Italian people and said a few words before making way.
The two of them got into the car and left.
Xue Gui wanted to stop them, but Old Master Xue stopped him.
After the two of them left, Xue Gui roared, “Brother, what are you doing? The duck that’s in your mouth has flown away!”
Old Lady Xue also scolded, “You… You don’t want to be the chairman anymore so you’re starting to create trouble for the company?!”
Xue Sheng lowered his eyes. “This way, I’ll have a reason to leave the company. Otherwise, if I just resigned, the company will definitely be in chaos.”
Everyone shut their mouths.
Old Master Xue’s eyes were red as he stared at Xue Sheng. “Son, what do you mean?”
Xue Sheng lifted his head and looked exceptionally rational and cold. He was like a heartless machine. “I don’t want the company’s shares anymore and will give them to Xue Chun. However, I have a condition. That is, that you allow my old people to follow me. If anyone is willing to leave, you guys must agree to let them go.”
Old Master Xue was stunned and instinctively wanted to speak, but Xue Sheng said, “It’s useless for them to stay because they don’t have the heart.”
Xue Gui, on the other hand, thought that Xue Sheng was actually so generous as to leave all his shares behind. He promptly shouted, “Sure, no problem!”
Old Master Xue said, “Son!”
He held Xue Sheng’s hand. “I’ll only feel at ease if the company is in your hands. You can’t go!”
Xue Gui did not look like he knew how to do business. Only Xue Sheng could manage this company well. Old Master Xue understood that better than anyone else!
If Xue Sheng was no longer in the company, what would be left to Xue Chun in the end would just be an empty frame!
Xue Sheng was resolute. “Dad, let go!”
Old Master Xue knew his eldest son well. He was a person who did big things. He was decisive and resolute! Just like this time, the company he’d founded could be said to have been abandoned.
He had made up his mind. Even ten cows could not pull him back, so he had been using kinship to trap him.
But now…
The old patriarch glared at Xue Gui and the old lady. “The two of you, apologize to Xue Sheng! Ask him to come back!”
Xue Gui was disdainful.
Old Lady Xue said angrily, “Who are you threatening? If he wants to leave, so be it! I heard from my second son that the gigolo offended Qian Xin and the company is affected. If he leaves, it might be a good thing for the company. Let him go and strike up elsewhere. With Qian Xin around, if that gigolo doesn’t apologize, what can he do?!
“Also, on your birthday today, the old people in the company are also here. We can ask them and see who is willing to leave with you!”
