1781 I Won’t Call You Big Brother, But I Still Treat You As My Big Brother
He hadn’t been with Bei Bei for long before she disappeared.
He was about to rush into Su Bei’s room.
Old Master He hugged him. “Great-grandpa and Great-grandma have bought a lot of things for you, Gun Gun. Do you want to take a look?”
“Okay!” Gun Gun remembered that his daddy had said not to disturb him and Bei Bei for the time being. They had something very important to talk about!
He would wait for tomorrow, then!
In Su Bei’s room, Lu Heting did have something important to do.
However, it was not something to be said but done.
After not seeing him for such a long time, Su Bei owed him a lot. He had to get her to pay him back tonight with interest.
The next day, Su Bei woke up late.
When she got up, it was almost lunchtime.
Su Bei covered her face with her hands. How was she going to go downstairs to see the others?
She was usually a good child and would eat breakfast with her family!
Lu Heting walked over. He was dressed neatly in a suit without a single crease.
Seeing that her face was red and she was in a daze, he could not help but smile and kiss her.
“You’re not awake yet?” He lowered his eyes and asked gently.
“Why didn’t you wake me up? Now everyone will know that I overslept!” Su Bei pursed her lips.
“Grandpa and Grandma took Da Bao and Gun Gun shopping early in the morning. Even if you get up for lunch now, no one will know that you slept so late.”
“Then help me get my clothes!” Su Bei quickly instructed him.
At the end, when Su Bei went downstairs, He Jiang and Lin Xiruo were there.
Well, Su Bei lost her face again.
Lu Heting stood aside and held her hand with a smile.
He Jiang glared at Lu Heting and could not be bothered with him.
Lu Heting stayed here for two days and finally got some interest back. He was satisfied every day. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he liked this place very much.
…
Now that Lu Heting was around, the smile on Su Bei’s face widened.
Although she usually smiled brightly, Old Master He and Old Madam He liked seeing her like this even more.
Su Bei’s smile was definitely different now. After Lu Heting came over with the two children, they could clearly feel the change in Su Bei’s mood.
“It seems that Lu Heting really dotes on Su Bei.” After observing carefully, Old Master He felt very calm.
Old Madam He nodded. “That’s right. Previously, the outside world was talking about how he hadn’t come to see Su Bei for months and didn’t visit the He family either, so they suspected his attitude toward Su Bei. I was also worried, but I couldn’t ask Su Bei too much. Now, it seems that he’s really good to Su Bei.”
Old Master He nodded. “In that case, I won’t worry about Su Bei anymore. And those two little fellows are really good…”
At the mention of them, he couldn’t help but fiddle with his beard. He reminisced about when Da Bao and Gun Gun were wheedling beside him. No, only Gun Gun was wheedling. Da Bao was mainly responsible for being cold and smart.
“In that case, is it time for you to tell everyone about that decision?” Old Madam He asked.
“Yes, Lu Heting will help manage the family business for the time being. It’s time to tell everyone this.” Old Master He had also made a careful decision.
Old Madam He said, “I’m just afraid that Shihui will have other thoughts.”
“I’m doing this for the entire He family! What Shihui has done these past few times has confirmed my thoughts. The He family needs a more magnanimous and responsible person to take over. Shihui is still… a little petty.”
…
The next day, the entire family gathered at the He family’s mansion.
This included He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin, who stayed outside.
As soon as Wei Heguang arrived, he went straight to Da Bao. “Da Bao, I’m here!”
After a day and a night of correction, he reluctantly stopped calling Da Bao ‘Big Brother’.
However, his words and expression still seemed to say ‘I won’t call you ‘Big Brother’, but I’ll still treat you as my big brother’.
“Mhm.” Da Bao was still cold.
However, this did not affect Wei Heguang’s enthusiasm at all. He found a seat and sat down next to Da Bao.
Fortunately, Gun Gun was generous. He had already taken a seat next to Da Bao, so he didn’t care if Wei Heguang was on Da Bao’s other side.
Old Master He coughed lightly and said, “Butler, bring the little masters out to play.”
Hearing that they were going to play, Gun Gun immediately became excited.
Wei Heguang and Da Bao both knew that the adults had something important to say, so they got up and left together.
However, Wei Heguang was as excited as Gun Gun. If he could see Da Bao play games, this trip today would be worth it!
The three of them quickly walked out.
Old Master He then told the family what he had been planning for a long time.
Wang Hui was surprised. “You want Mr. Lu to temporarily participate in the management of He Consortium?”
Actually, Lu Heting was not surprised. He had already expected this.
From the day he arrived and saw Wang Hui and He Shihui’s actions, he knew that the two of them were extremely petty and could not do anything openly.
Old Master He’s decision was not selfish. It was for the sake of the entire consortium.
Since Old Master He treated Su Bei very well, he was willing to share the old master’s burden.
However, Wang Hui was very unwilling. “Dad, shouldn’t we be in charge of He Consortium’s matters ourselves? Especially since Shihui is also in charge.”
He Shihui clenched her fists tightly. Why couldn’t Grandpa see her hard work? Why would he rather hand over the family business to someone else than hand it to her?
Old Master He said, “I know you’ll definitely have some ideas. However, He Consortium’s businesses are very extensive now. I’m old, and I’m not strong enough. I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to get everything done just by relying on He Jiang and Shihui. Heting is only temporarily involved. When Xuyan comes back three years later, he’ll still have to return the management rights to him.”
He Shihui held back the anger in her heart and said, “Grandpa, I can work harder.”
Old Master He looked at her and said, “I don’t want you to work too hard.”
Although he said that, he knew that He Shihui was not a good leader and was easily influenced.
All these years, he had been observing carefully. He Xuyan had a calm personality, was tolerant, and was better at accepting opinions. He looked indifferent on the surface, but he was actually magnanimous.
He Shihui looked magnanimous on the surface, but in reality, she was not. Even he could tell from the things she had done to Su Bei that Su Bei had no interest in the family business at all. However, He Shihui was unwilling to let her go and fought with her again and again.
Old Master He was really worried about handing such a huge family business to He Shihui.
He comforted her again. “Besides, you’re already involved in a lot now.”
He Shihui felt a chill in her heart.
The others said nothing.
This decision was made by Old Master He, so he naturally had his reasons. Everyone knew what He Shihui had done.
From everyone’s perspective, Old Master He was taking the overall situation into consideration.
