Chapter 350: I Will Definitely Wait For You

Chapter 350: I Will Definitely Wait For You

Jing Yun had said nothing for a while, but finally spoke with utmost sincerity then, “Chairman. Minglan and I love each other, and I know my place embarrasses you, and what we’ve done hurt you.”

“Even so, Minglan is independent and has her own dignity. You can restrain her once, but not for life. As for me…”

“I have nothing against you despising me for having nothing to my name. But I’m not going to stay poor for the rest of my life—I will do anything for Minglan, even build a new empire for her.”

“You?” The old man couldn’t help sneering. “Aren’t you talking big with your nonexistent roots?”

“I may not have any roots, but you and the seniors of Huang Yao had built the company out of nothing too, Chairman. And you know what I can do after so many years, I really can…”

“Beggars will always be beggars. And so what if you are capable? Am I going to consent to every capable person marrying Sheng Minglan?” The old man sniggered. “You’re right. I despise you—not only because you have nothing and no roots, but because you’re an ingrate who serves another master.”

“How can my family accommodate a blemish like you?”

“Chairman…”

“Stop. Don’t delude yourself into thinking that you could trick me with your nice words. I’ll acknowledge your integrity because you could stand here, admit your fault and even took the slap for Minglan instead of acting like a sissy. But I will cripple you if you show up around Minglan in any way…”

“Tsk, tsk…” Sheng Xiao clicked his tongue, mocking the old man. “Don’t be so sure. What if you’ve missed out on a most eligible bachelor?”

“Sheng Xiao, I’m going to punish Jing Yun today even if you are here.”

“Do as you wish. Just don’t regret it.” Sheng Xiao taunted. “I don’t believe you would eat his flesh anyway.”

“I can’t. But I can take his limbs of. He’s nothing but a mongrel…”

Everyone else was left stunned.

The Sheng family had always behaved insufferably arrogant, but none of them had ever humiliated and trampled over others like this.

Moreover, physical harming someone would definitely incur karma.

Sheng Minglan looked to Jing Yun worriedly, who merely blinked, assuring her that she didn’t have to worry. Even so, she wanted to cover her face and weep—she really hated the Sheng family to the bone, and the control freak that was her grandfather.

She hence threatened the old man directly, “If you dare touch him, you’ll have to pick up my corpse tomorrow.”

“I’m not letting him go even if you threaten me this time.”

“Leave now, Jing Yun.” Sheng Xiao instructed Jing Yun, no longer having the patience to drag on the confrontation with the old man. “I assure you that the old man would offer Fourth Sister to you under his own will in just a moment, begging you to stay with the Sheng family.”

Jing Yun looked at Sheng Xiao and then at Sheng Minglan, who wanted him to leave as well. “Go. I will take care of myself. I promise you.”

“But… I want to bring you with me.”

“Jing Yun.”

Sheng Xiao’s signal this time was very clear—Jing Yun must leave now.

Debating with the old man would only escalate the conflict. One could imagine that there was no getting past him if Jing Yun wasn’t a member of the Xu family.

Furthermore, this was also Sheng Xiao’s last test for the old man. And given how the old man was acting like an overgrown child, he no longer holds any hope in him.

“Don’t even think about leaving…”

“Go!” Sheng Xiao promptly shouted. “Whoever stops Jing Yun today, be ready to eat yourself back home. If you are afraid that the old man will fire you and disobey me, you just have to wait for my revenge. I am sure that it would be unforgettable.”

Sheng Xiao threatened every single bodyguard and servant in the room, leaving them between a rock and a hard place.

But could the old man do anything against Sheng Xiao?

The answer was no.

The others had their frustration and couldn’t vent it either, and the air was as scorching as it was stiff.

Mama Sheng couldn’t repress a sneer at the sight. “To think that such a grandfather exists in this world. Jaw-dropping, isn’t it?”

For Jing Yun, he understood then how important power and position was. If he didn’t have a trump card, he would never be able to leave with Sheng Minglan even if he died.

And he and his friends now understood deeply how disgusting the old man could be.

In the end, he turned to Minglan and said, “Wait for me.”

“I will.” She replied.

Jing Yun then bowed three times to the old man before leaving the living room, with the old man unable to lift a finger against him since Sheng Xiao was protecting him with all his might.

“You are pushing your Fourth Sister into the fire by doing this… You never change, saving the best for others instead of your family. Don’t think I can’t do anything to him just because he’s gone!”

“Of course you would try something against him privately. But I’m sure you won’t want to do that soon enough, because you love power so much…”

As soon as those words left Sheng Xiao’s lips, a butler ran inside and told the old man, “Master Sheng, we’ve received a greeting card from Xu Holdings asking for a meeting. The couple even mentioned that they are here to offer their thanks.”

The old man took the card and read it. When he realized that it was someone important, he immediately asked the butler, “Where are they?”

“Just outside.”

“Let them in.”

***

As a matter of fact, the Xu couple had watched as Jing Yun was captured and dragged to the Sheng house, but remained outside without asking to enter. They immediately knew that their son had been grievously wronged, but they didn’t console him since everyone had their own dignity.

But they could see for themselves how hard Jing Yun was blaming himself, convinced that he was useless, incapable, and had nothing.

And he certainly couldn’t take back Sheng Minglan from the old man.

That being said, who could win against the old man when no one in the Sheng family except for Sheng Xiao was free from his control?

Feeling hurt, the Xu couple naturally came knocking, wanting justice for their son.

On the other hand, Grandpa Sheng hadn’t the faintest idea why the Xu family would come to offer their thanks… and for what?

Since the rest of his family was still there, he told them to quickly look friendly to welcome the guests.

Soon, the Xu couple entered the living room, and politely greeted the old man when they saw him. “You must be Old Mister Sheng. Your reputation precedes you.”

The old man had already withdrawn his face of fury and was courteous to the couple in return, since he had heard of the Xu family too.

“May I ask to what do we owe the pleasure?”

“The story is this,” Mama Xu explained to the old man after taking her seat. “I’ve once lost a child years ago, but we finally found him days ago after years of searching. My son had even told me that the Sheng family had raised him, which is why his father and myself had now come here in gratitude.”
