The two brothers quickly discussed their strategy. No matter what, they had to dispel Xiao Jings idea of severing ties.
The boy standing at the back muttered, “So what if Xiao Jing doesn’t come back? Isn’t it good to let our eldest brother inherit the family business?” Second Uncle Xiao immediately turned around and slapped him. He said angrily, “What do you know? With your brother’s ability, if he wants to inherit the family business, we’ll go broke!”
Second Uncle and Third Uncle Xiao had the same thoughts. The two of them knew very well that they did not have the ability and were obediently idlers. They did not expect that their descendants were still useless and even prodigal. It was not easy for them to have a person like Xiao Jing, giving them hope to continue loafing around. They could not lose him now.
The servant waited for a long time before opening the door for them. Second Uncle Xiao and Third Uncle Xiao hurriedly walked in. When they saw Xiao Jing sitting in the living room, they immediately cried, “My eldest nephew, your father is old and muddle-headed to do such a thing. We will definitely watch over him in the future. You can’t leave the Xiao family.”
As Second Uncle Xiao’s voice sounded, the others also cried. Those who didn’t know better would think that something big had happened, and Xiao Jings head hurt.
He sneered and said, “Second Uncle Xiao and Third Uncle Xiao don’t have to beg me here. If it weren’t for the fact that I reacted fast yesteday, my family would’ve been shattered. I don’t think my father is senile, he knows exactly what he was doing.”
Second Uncle Xiao quickly walked forward and said, “l know what your father did was wrong. As long as you don’t leave the Xiao family, feel free to ask for anything. We will definitely help you do it.”
Gu Teng sat down with Yunbao in her arms and said, “This is the first time
I’ve heard of a father finding a mistress for his son.”
These words made Second Uncle Xiao speechless. In the end, what Xiao Shan had done was too ridiculous. They didn’t even know how to intercede.
“But this was done by Xiao Shan. Xiao Jing shouldn’t give up the entire Xiao family,” Third Uncle Xiao said.
“Yes, this is Xiao Shan’s fault. You can’t give up just like that,” Second Uncle Xiao quickly continued.
Xiao Jing said impatiently, “I’m not the only child in the Xiao family. No matter what, Second Uncle and Third Uncle can be the head of the family.
Without me, the Xiao family can still survive.”
Of course, without Xiao Jing, the Xiao family could live on, but they could only live on. They would definitely not have their current glory.
None of the two uncles’ families could do business. At that time, the Xiao familys businesses would definitely shrink greatly. Along with their hedonistic sons, they would sooner or later lose all their assets. The two of them were old and still had to clean up messes for their children and grandchildren. Just thinking about it made their hearts tired.
Just as the two of them were trying their best to persuade Xiao Jing, Xiao
Shan’s voice suddenly came from outside the door. “If he wants to leave, so be it. But he has to leave everything in our house behind.”
Second Uncle Xiao didn’t know what was wrong with Xiao Shan. He and Third Uncle Xiao grabbed him from both sides and said, “Do you know what you’re saying? Didn’t you ask us to persuade him?”
“l think it’s useless to persuade him. His heart is filled with his wife and children now. He probably wants his surname to be Gu. It’s useless even if he doesn’t leave the Xiao family.” Xiao Shan snorted. “l saw records of the ancestors in the ancestral hall. I want him to return what he took.”
“l also want to know what I took away.” Xiao Jing stood up and walked over.
Xiao Shan smiled triumphantly and said, “Can you control a kind of golden flame?”
“So what if I can?” Xiao Jing asked.
Xiao Shan laughed. “That’s right. That belongs to our Xiao family. It’s written in the ancestral hall that our Xiao family is a family with the bloodline of the God of War. The inheritance of the God of War Flame is in the hands of the Xiao family. Perhaps a child of any generation will inherit this flame. Since you want to leave, leave the God of War Flame behind.”
Xiao Jing really did not expect Xiao Shan to be so shameless as to take away what he was born with.
Yunbao tilted her head and said, “But this is something that appeared after Daddy awakened. Shouldn’t it belong to Daddy alone? M/hy does he have to return it?”
Yunbao’s words made the second and third branches fall silent. Although the God of War Flame came from the Xiao family’s bloodline inheritance, it had also chosen to be passed down to Xiao Jing. Even if it was taken back, no one could use it. Why was Xiao Shan so aggressive?
Xiao Shan was furious. “This belongs to my Xiao family. Since he wants to leave the Xiao family, he has to hand it over.”
“If that’s the case, should you hand over the assets that Xiao Jing has earned for the Xiao family all these years? As far as I know, Xiao Jing has been working in the Xiao Corporation since he became an adult. That’s why the Xiao family’s assets have expanded to this extent,” Gu Teng said..
