As the off-road vehicle drove on the highway, Li Chaoran's eyes showed a bit of pain, and he occasionally wiped away tears.
Yu Xuanyang sat in the back seat with his hands folded.
She had relied on Li Chaoran since the hospital, and because of urgency, she took her along with him.
"Why am I being taken along too?" Yu Xuanyang muttered while looking at his cell phone.
I wanted to say that you didn’t have to keep up, but in the end I held back.
The little girl has a mouth like a machine cannon, and with her good looks, being an anchor is like being chased and fed by God. When I argued with her, I couldn't even get a word in.
"See for yourselves, my platform is full of messages! My brother used to handle it, what should I do now?"
I glanced at Li Chaoran. He was driving the car very seriously, as if he didn't hear it at all.
"Don't think you can get around me without talking. In addition to my brother's medical expenses, before my brother gets better, you have to give me some money when I start broadcasting, right?"
I ignored her and just flipped through the messages on my old phone.
I don’t have many friends on social platforms, but the class group chat is a mess, with people like me everywhere.
Because of some good classmates, I posted the recording of Yu Xuanyang’s live broadcast last night.
In the picture, I was standing on a stool and was about to remove the sling when Zhang Shanyuan rushed over and hugged my leg.
"Look, he seems to be a classmate of ours!"
"No way, classmate Yao is a poor student."
"He seems to be hanging?"
"Why hang yourself? The anchor said he was a murderer!"
"It's so scary. Why are you hanging on a rope?"
"What does his house do? It's spooky!"
I don’t know if this is social death. Although I am often ridiculed for my poor family conditions, I still feel panicked at this moment.
Just when I was depressed, Yu Xuanyang, who had been peeking at me checking messages from behind, seemed a little embarrassed and said, "It's okay! You'll be fine if you get used to this kind of thing. You can live stream it with me later." I just said it was a script, and they were determined to believe it! As for the family situation being simpler, I’ll sort it out for you, and go to my house to shoot a video of a rich, handsome person, which will definitely captivate the female classmates in your class!”
"Then what?" I asked coldly.
"Okay, let's forget it." Yu Xuanyang knew that I was angry, so he could only sit back in the back seat with his hands folded.
I took another look at the message from Zhang Sujie. It was just a few simple words, but it made my heart skip a beat.
"Brother, do you still have money? My mother can't withdraw the money from her bank card. She took out an online loan, but it's not enough."
Zhang Sujie knew my situation very well. The reason why she still asked this question must be in a dilemma.
I just hesitated for a moment, then took out an online loan worth 2,000 yuan and transferred it.
Zhang Sujie quickly accepted it and replied that she would give it to me when the death certificate is issued and the money is obtained.
"Husband, this thing is very convenient, so this woman owes her husband money and goods?" Xu Wanzhao pointed her finger at her lower lip with a curious expression.
I wanted to laugh in my heart, but I couldn't.
Capital Hospital morgue.
Chen Qinian’s business operations team was all gathered together with solemn expressions.
One of the capable women who was walking through the crowd saw us and immediately came towards us.
Li Chaoran stumbled several times along the way, and before he reached the temporary mourning hall, he sat down on the ground and started crying.
The woman ignored me and stretched out her hand to me without even hesitating: "Hello, Mr. Yao, I am Chen Qing."
"Sister Qing, hello, please don't call me Mr. Yao, just call me by my name." I shook my hand politely, but felt a little dirty in my heart.
The people here are either business tycoons or middle-aged and elderly people wearing administrative jackets. It seems as if the dignitaries of the capital have gathered here today.
My clothes were old and yellowed, and the soles of my shoes were sticky a few times. After a long night of tossing, I was in a state of utter disarray.
I am very familiar with the look of contempt. Except for Chen Qing, Li Chaoran, and Yu Xuanyang, everyone else looks down on me more or less.
The suits they wore were slim-fitting and must be the legendary custom-made ones. They certainly had the right to despise me.
When walking through the crowd, Chen Qing said succinctly: "I'd better call you Mr. Yao. After all, you will be the chairman of the company in the future. Mr. Yao, Mr. Chen suddenly got into trouble when he was signing the will materials on his way back to the provincial capital. He has a heart disease, but the whole process was witnessed by the company's legal department. There is no doubt about the validity of the will. Mr. Chen has no children and does not recognize distant relatives, so his equity and property will be transferred to you."
While he was talking, several legal teams dressed as lawyers followed Chen Qing one after another.
This attitude made me wonder: How big of a company can afford a legal team of this size?
"Sister Qing, Mr. Chen and I just met by chance. I am here just because he is my grandma's junior brother, so I need to come to pay homage to my elders. As for the equity, including any property, I will not inherit it."
As capable as Chen Qing, he couldn't help but be stunned at this moment.
Several legal officers behind her also started whispering among themselves.
Many people were shocked when they heard this, but then they looked at me like I was a fool.
I know what they are thinking, but grandma said that if you don't reject others, trouble will come.
The greater the benefit, the greater the trouble.
Some troubles can be fatal.
"Mr. Yao, maybe you didn't understand what I said?" Chen Qing's expression was a little weird.
"No, Sister Qing, I heard it very clearly." I arrived in front of the temporary mourning hall, took some incense sticks, lit them, and then quickly left after worshiping.
As a result, this move immediately caused a group of people to chatter.
"I've already taken the shares, why are they all grandsons? Now the grandsons don't even care anymore?"
"Haha, running so weird, Lao Chen has a good grandson!"
"What do you know? Once you get the shares, you will take care of me, Chen Tianwang."
In fact, the reason why I quit was very simple. In broad daylight, there were actually more than a dozen resentful spirits standing next to the coffin, looking straight at the crowd!
I don't know where they come from, so I can only pretend not to see them.
As for their moral kidnapping, I don’t accept it!
Yu Xuanyang pulled me aside and asked with wide eyes, "Is there something wrong with you? Do you know what you just did?"
"What have you done?"
"You refused to inherit a group company with hundreds of billions of assets! Are you crazy?" Yu Xuanyang asked anxiously.
"Do you only have money in your eyes?" I asked with a frown.
"Of course not! But it's at the level of hundreds of billions. Do you know what this concept is? Chen Qinian is a legendary figure!"
Yu Xuanyang was about to say something, but when she saw that I wasn't going to pay attention to her, she could only stamp her feet.
I was talking to her like a chicken and a duck.
She knew the benefits of inheriting hundreds of billions of assets, but she didn't understand that her life was in jeopardy with carrying so many assets.
It is no joke to say that there is no blessing to endure.
Chen Qing followed the lost Li Chaoran and said, "Mr. Yao, I don't know if Xiao Li told you something that made you misunderstand, but before Mr. Chen died, he did appoint you to inherit As for the entire group, Mr. Chen also said that if it weren’t for you, this industry would probably not be able to hold on, so please be sure to..."
"Sister Qing, before Mr. Chen died, was there any strange person around him? It seems that he died in vain, not a normal pathological death." I interrupted her.
