Du Feiyun's expression turned venomous as he understood these things. He could no longer hold back and roared, "Daddy, am I your biological son?
Are you having fun playing with me like this?"
Du Feiyang hadn't expected him to turn the tables. "Big Brother, what do you mean, Dad is also wrong?
What do you mean playing with you? You've been controlling Dad all along, wanting shares in the group. Does Dad have to give his life to you after giving birth to you?"
"That's right, he gave birth to me, so he should be responsible for me. I've worked so hard all these years, and all I wanted was a word of acknowledgment from him. But instead, he's doting on you, you good-for-nothing. Who are you to compete with me?"
Du Feiyang, angered, retorted, "You're the good-for-nothing! You're a son, and I'm not? Why does everything belong to you?"
"Because I am the eldest legitimate son. According to the old rules, you illegitimate sons are all servants. How dare you think of dividing the family fortune?
When I become the chairman of the Du family, I will kick all of you out of the old house. You don't deserve to live in the same house as me."
Du Feiyang said, "Unfortunately, you won't be able to."
"That's not certain. I have already gained the recognition of most shareholders. What does it matter if Daddy is alive? He still has to obediently hand over power."
Du Feiyang replied, "That's because they thought Dad was dead. Now Dad is still the chairman. Ask around, who will support you?
Also, you murdered someone and tampered with a corpse. This crime is enough to send you to jail for decades. Dream on in prison."
Du Feiyun's pupils contracted. He was actually bringing up the corpse.
"I didn't kill him, you can't do anything to me."
"Do you want your subordinates to take the blame? Don't forget, they are all Du family members, not yours, Du Feiyun. Go and explain to the police."
A few police officers entered, holding arrest warrants. "Du Feiyun, you are suspected of hiring someone to commit murder and tampering with a corpse. Please come with us."
Du Feiyun stared at the old man, unwillingly saying, "Daddy, are you really going to watch me go to jail?"
The old man finally opened his eyes and looked at him with disappointment. "I've given you opportunities more than once, but you always took the wrong path, disappointing me greatly.
You tampered with the medicine I took, and you were hoping I'd die. I cannot accept a filial son like you. Go to prison and reflect properly. The only thing your father can do is to let you live."
"I don't want to."
"It's not up to you. Take him away. You police officers, don't be so soft. If he escapes, can you bear the responsibility? Sudan Novel Network.
Give him a stun baton and handcuffs. Let's see how arrogant he can be."
"Cough, cough, say a little less."
Xie Sui coughed, realizing that with so many people watching, it was best not to be too obvious, and framing his elder brother wouldn't earn him a good reputation.
The eldest madam panicked and pulled on the old man, pleading, "You can't abandon your son! It was all my fault, I made my son do it. Punish me if you must, how can I live at my age?"
The old man angrily retorted, "It's all because of the children you raised. Do you still think you are innocent? Your daughter is ruined, and your son is full of darkness and schemes. You blame me for not caring about him, but he tried to kill me. Should I cut off a piece of my flesh for him?!"
"Who told you to be his father? Where is the father who doesn't care about his son?"
The eldest madam said righteously. Xie Sui shivered. It was truly terrifying. So, giving birth to a son was just to have them bleed him dry. How miserable must a father be?
Xie Sui gave Du Feiyang a look, and together they saw off the guests. The family matters could be handled behind closed doors.
The guests chatted in small groups, gossiping about the Du family's affairs. Today was truly eye-opening.
Some newspapers, having received news, swarmed in. The area outside the mourning hall became lively again.
Du Feiyun was eventually taken away. The eldest madam fainted directly. The remaining younger brothers, sisters, and concubines acted like quail, waiting for the old man's decision.
The old man was also weary. "You all have to fend for yourselves. If the Du family prospers, you will have your share of the dividends. Aren't you living well enough?
If you are greedy, you will gain nothing."
"Yes, we remember. We were all forced by the eldest wife. We know everything."
"If you had participated, would you still be standing here? You would have gone in to join your elder brother long ago. Go home, don't disgrace yourselves here."
The others in the Du family breathed a sigh of relief. This meant they would not be held accountable.
Du Feiyang had won immensely this time. The old man's health had improved, the Du family no longer had to fight over the inheritance, and they were being reported on by major newspapers. The stock prices that had fallen earlier were pulled back up, and the shareholders were all happy. They treated Du Feiyang like their own son.
If he hadn't saved the old man, the Du family would have suffered heavy losses. Internal strife had never yielded good results since ancient times.
As for where the old man had been hiding, and how he had evaded the search by the eldest young master Du, the old man didn't want to discuss it, and told no one.
Du Feiyang dared not say either; the old man cared about his reputation.
With the Du family's matters resolved, Xie Sui took his family for some major shopping, at Lin Wanwan's own shops, of course. It was as if he was inspecting them.
They looked a bit rustic, and any sales associate who looked down on them was publicly reprimanded. One shouldn't judge a book by its cover; there would be many wealthy people in the mainland in the future, and this attitude would lead to a loss of a large customer base.
In the service industry, arrogance was unacceptable. Even in luxury stores, one shouldn't look down on customers; it was a matter of the mall's image.
Lin Wanwan learned something new. Xie Sui rectified the atmosphere throughout the mall, improving service and making it more competitive in the future.
Qing Qing and Wen Wen both bought princess dresses, each costing over ten thousand yuan. It was almost unbelievable. Lin Wanwan, without batting an eye, bought them. This aunt was truly the best aunt in the world.
Xie Min felt that she was also wealthy now. Chen Weimin earned millions annually, but here, she realized that money was like paper; it didn't last.
Anything cost thousands of yuan, good clothes cost hundreds of thousands, and a watch cost millions. This wasn't an eye-opener; it was a thrill-seeker.
Xie Lan was quite composed. She didn't want anything, so she just looked at the numbers.
Lin Wanwan's back didn't hurt, her legs didn't ache, and she wasn't experiencing morning sickness. She strolled around with her belly, energetic, not at all like a pregnant woman.
Xie Sui couldn't keep up with her, so he sent bodyguards to accompany her while he dealt with company matters and looked after the children.
Secretary Jin found two female employees who were mothers to accompany the nanny in looking after the young masters. The two children had become the company's darlings. President Xie was truly blessed to have a pair of twins. Everyone was envious.
In the afternoon, other company executives came for a meeting, and they were all attracted by a pair of twins. Especially those from the entertainment company; Qiu Caizhi wished she could take them home and raise them herself.
She was divorced, childless, and disliked crying and troublesome children. However, looking at Xie Sui's sons, who were intelligent, fair-skinned, chubby, smiled at everyone, and didn't cry no matter who held them, and even kissed her, it was simply healing.
Another day of being tricked into wanting sons. Qiu Caizhi said, "President Xie, some of the plays require children of this age. Why not let the young masters have a cameo?"
Xie Sui replied, "My sons, if they act, they must be the protagonists. Cameos are not allowed."
Qiu Caizhi was in a difficult position. Having such young children as protagonists, President Xie was truly ambitious.
Xie Sui was not speaking without reason. *Home Alone* was very popular. The cost was not high, but the returns were dozens of times over.
He would discuss it with Wanwan when he returned. The elder brothers had to earn money for their younger brothers' diapers and formula.
He no longer expected Lin Wanwan to have a daughter. The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. He probably wasn't destined to have daughters.
Sometimes, he thought having naughty boys was better. When daughters grew up, they would get married, and he would be reluctant to let them go.
If a naughty boy snatched his little cabbage away, Xie Sui would kill him.
Thinking of his daughter getting married, Xie Sui couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. An old father couldn't bear that.
When Lin Wanwan and the others finally returned, Xie Sui quickly helped her. "Tired? Take it easy, don't tire our son. Have some water."
Dou Dou and Ding Ding said, "Dad, we want water too."
The office immediately became lively. Secretary Jin had cakes, juice, and milk tea delivered for them to eat first. A grand dinner was booked for the evening.
After they finished eating, they were all extremely sleepy. After all, they were children. Once the excitement wore off, they wanted to sleep. They were quickly sent home, without even washing, and fell asleep.
Lin Wanwan was also a bit tired. She had a simple dinner and lay on the bed, asking Xie Sui to massage her calves to prevent swelling.
"Wanwan, what do you think about our younger son making a movie? There's a very good script, *Home Alone*. Our son is perfect for it. Shall we give it a try?"
"As long as there's no danger. Dou Dou and Ding Ding won't do; they have to go back to school."
"Yes, the children have to go back to school, and then go back."
Since they had returned to Hong Kong, there were certainly some matters to attend to. There was also the Liu family. Xie Sui felt that the Liu family was harboring malicious intentions. Rather than passively defending, it was better to take the initiative.
"Wanwan, why don't we let the children attend a prestigious school here?"
Looking up, Lin Wanwan had already fallen asleep. After all, she wasn't young anymore. While pregnant, she could work in the fields, but after strolling all day, she was exhausted.
Xie Sui covered her with the quilt and went to the study to handle documents.
This time, he wasn't looking at his own financial statements but at the Liu family's asset distribution. The Liu family was mainly in manufacturing, with innovative products like radios, televisions, washing machines, and electric fans, mostly sold to Southeast Asian countries. They also had port cargo transport, earning a good amount annually.
The investment in cargo ships was too good. In his previous life, Xie Sui was in electronics, so he could attack the Liu family from that angle.
Without delay, the next day, Xie Sui instructed Secretary Jin to acquire an electronics factory, establish a research and development department, and start with electronic watches, then pagers, and mobile phones. The mainland market would be the largest in the future.
The R&D boss from his previous life hadn't graduated yet. Xie Sui had to poach talent from the United States at a high price, which meant he had to find Smith.
This American was also a shrewd businessman. Xie Sui wanted to poach technical personnel, and Smith wanted a share of the pie. He could provide people, even equipment and technology, but he wanted to hold shares and start a factory with Xie Sui.
Xie Sui listened to his phone call, frowning involuntarily, and then quickly agreed, "Okay, I can agree to that. Let's discuss the share distribution in person.
I'm very much looking forward to cooperating with you."
Smith was very happy and said, "I'm looking forward to it too. Is your wife accompanying you this time?"
"Yes, my wife is pregnant again. I have to accompany her and don't have much energy for the factory. I'll have to trouble Mr. Smith."
"Oh, my god, you're having another baby, Xie! You really can give birth. Your wife is almost like a rabbit. I don't know whether to envy or pity you."
