Chapter 378: Even Huang Yao Is Being Reshuffled

“Luckily, the damage can be controlled in time.”

“You really deserve the title of Crown Prince.” Mama Xu couldn’t help gasping in awe after hearing out Sheng Xiao. “It’s fortunately that Feng’er had stayed with you for so long to learn calmness and restraint, or Yihong would have toyed with him to death.”

Right now, Mama Xu was very sure that Xu Yihong was a fake was because Jing Yun had let her read the paternity test he did.

As she remembered the past, it was not as if she could not sense that something was wrong as a mother and a woman—even though Papa Xu did not. historical

For example, how Xu Yihong had deliberately led her in circles over the years when she searched for Jing Yun.

Indeed, although he had a strong reason to back his actions when his impostor was exposed, it was a flawless outcome for him to get a fake instead of letting Mama Xu continue her search.

“If Papa Xu is really smart, he would immediately suspend all of Yihong’s duties and cut him off from Xu Holdings since he has sufficient reason.”

“Alright, we’ve said too much. I should be getting Qi’er since I am a NEET…”

“Thank you, Young Master.” Jing Yun told Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao waved him off nonchalantly. He knew from the start that Jing Yun’s problem could not be resolved that smoothly—there would be no easy way to yank Xu Yihong out of Xu Holdings after he had been embedded there for years.

Jing Yun himself did not dream of such a thing either.

Still, with Xu Yihong ruthless moves, Jing Yun could not afford to let Xu Yihong continue prowling in the darkness.

When Mu Qiqi saw that they had taken the route to the Shen’s residence, she couldn’t help asking Sheng Xiao, “Did Grandpa tell us to go home for dinner?”

“Jing Yun is occupying Jing Ting for now.” Sheng Xiao replied, and told her about what happened to Jing Yun at Xu holdings today.

Mu Qiqi couldn’t help shivering after listening to his story. “I’ve attended one of Xu Yihong’s classes…”

“Hmmm?” Sheng Xiao mused dangerously.

“It’s that one time I was waiting for my instructor. I was looking at him from far away and immediately feel that he’s not the simple-type—the domineering presence and ambition he shows makes a strong impression.”

“That’s why Jing Yun met his match.” Sheng Xiao chuckled. “Well, I could now make inventory on how much he has learned after following me around for years.”

After they reached the Shen’s residence, the odors that clung to Mu Qiqi remained as unbearable as ever, which was why Sheng Xiao made her take a bath the moment they got inside.

When Old Shen saw Sheng Xiao coming to the fish pond alone, he immediately knew that his granddaughter had run into some unbelievable corpse again.

“My retired comrades had been talking to me about you over the last few days, since it is really a pity that our connection to the Sheng family would become as bad as it is today.”

“Your Second Brother is now calling the shots at the Sheng family now, and word is that your grandfather has announced that they are completely cutting ties with you. They really are acting like they are going to set clear boundaries with you now.”

Sheng Xiao watched the serene surface of the pond and smiled too. “I’m happy for him if he could really groom a new power.”

In turn, the old man stopped mentioning the Sheng family upon seeing that Sheng Xiao had really let things go.

“How are things over at Zhongteng?”

“We’re meeting someone from the military’s purchasing wing…” Sheng Xiao replied.

“We’ll see if you could do well after changing jobs now, Crown Prince.” The old man teased him. “You have to know that you are nothing now. The reason you could still strut around with the Shen family’s protection is none other than because you are feeding off Qiqi…”

“That’s why Qi’er is my lucky star.”

Sheng Xiao was not at all offended by the old man’s jibe, while the old man did not really hold contempt for Sheng Xiao having nothing.

The kid really has talent and competence, which was why Old Sheng would never let things rest.

“And one more thing. Rumor has it that the Sheng family would welcome the granddaughter of an old acquaintance in two days—know anything about that?”

Old acquaintance? That’s just the young lady of the Gu family whom Old Sheng had his eyes on.

Even if Sheng Xiao would not return to Huang Yao, the old man was determined to ally with the Gu family, was he not?

“I really hope this matter would not hurt Xiao Qi…”

That said, it would depend on whether Old Sheng had prepared Miss Gu for Sheng Xiao or his Second Brother!

Meanwhile, after Mama Xu, Sheng Minglan, and Jing Yun had left the Xu manor, Papa Xu has suspended Xu Yihong’s duties just as Sheng Xiao had anticipated.

“Yihong, I believe you are innocent but this is a serious problem. That is why I would first get to the bottom of it so that you could be in the clear, or you would still be criticized even if you did more for the Sheng family.”

Of course, Xu Yihong had to act innocent. “Don’t worry, Dad. I understand.”

“Alright. We will do the paternity test tomorrow, then!”

However, right after Xu Yihong left Papa Xu, he made a call to the eldest Xu uncle. “We are second place in stocks if we pool our stakes, and I have control over Xu Holdings’ latest project. With Feifei faking some numbers for me, what else is Xu Holdings left with?”

“That project is worth a lot of money, so keep an eye on it. That alone is enough for us to get out here and start a new company. Why wait? And what is there for my stupid brother to investigate about us anyway?”

“Father, you can leave Xu Holdings now. I’ll watch your back!”

“Still, there really is not underestimating Xu Yifeng—he actually found out what we’ve kept hidden for years… are you sure you could escape? I don’t think he would prove easy!”

Xu Yihong couldn’t help laughing at that. “He’s not going to make it in time even if he had three heads and six arms. And I don’t think he’s that impressive anyway… didn’t he just spend a long time with Huang Yao’s Crown Prince?”

“And now, even Sheng Xiao is bombed out of his own family and Huang Yao is getting shuffled around. What is there to be cautious about with that guy?”

Even though Xu Yihong was very careful, he still had some arrogance in him.

“Still, I would really like to see how Xu Yifeng would try to turn this around.”

How? That was all too easy!

Late in the evening, the living room lights at Jing Ting was still lit.

While Mama Xu and Sheng Minglan were asleep, Jing Yun made a call to Sheng Xiao.

“I’ve learned from my mother that Xu Yihong has control over the results from the latest scientific research project that Xu Holdings had made, which could prove to be the company’s future. Then, I’ve also counted his and eldest uncle’s stake—that’s a great threat to Xu Holdings too.”

“What project could he hold that could be so impressive?” Sheng Xiao asked in return. “And it’s not like we haven’t faced such a situation anyway.”

“He wants it? Let him have it. Just get your father to inspect the concerned departments and announce that the technology has significant safety hazards, or just come up with some even serious excuse to put it on ice. What use is that project of his when that happens?”

“Right now, you have to know whether he has other leverages!”
