Chapter 433: So That You Could Go Sabotaging Him?

Once she saw how things were turning out, Gu Ziling went up to stop Sheng Kai while glaring at Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi. “If you’ve come to show off, you’ve achieved your purpose. Can’t you spare us?”

“You are the ones who could not spare yourselves.” Mu Qiqi replied. “Allow me to formally introduce Sheng Xiao, CEO of Zhongteng, who has nothing to do with the Sheng family. From now on, let’s set boundaries if we ever cross paths again.”

Sheng Xiao never spoke throughout the confrontation, and merely slipped his little bristling tiger a small hug.

As always, she was furious whenever she saw anyone from the Sheng family.

***

Be that as it may, Sheng Xiao was not really there to show off. He did not come to get back at the Sheng family at all, because what was Huang Yao to him now?

No more than a fleeting cloud.

After that, Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi held warm conversations with the other guests presents, all of them now having changed their opinion towards Sheng Xiao.

Where they had thought that he was young, exuberant, not to be crossed and always had a chip over his shoulder, they found him much milder and more mature now.

Nonetheless, only Mu Qiqi knew how cunning her man had become. In fact, there was no saving him now.

On the other hand, Sheng Kai could only feel humiliation, and so went out with Gu Ziling to the garden for some fresh air.

“There’s really no telling how we should tell Grandfather about this.”

Gu Ziling told Sheng Kai after some thought. “You can’t be blamed for the failure of Grandfather’s people.”

“I really did not expect that Sheng Xiao had such a card up his sleeve, and played everyone as if they were monkeys.”

“If you feel that we shouldn’t stay in this gathering, let’s come up with something to excuse ourselves.”

Even so, Sheng Kai shook his head to calm himself. “We’ll become an even bigger laughing stock if we leave now.”

Gu Ziling did not know why Sheng Kai would try to put on a strong front just then. He clearly could not abide with Sheng Xiao’s presence, and yet forced himself to endure it.

“Alright, I’m coming with you.”

“By the way, now that I’ve seen Sheng Xiao’s assistant again, he definitely is the one who brought Third Brother home back then. And yet Third brother told me that he didn’t know him.”

It was obvious that Third Brother knew about Zhongteng, and did not tell them.

“That brat is such an ingrate!”

***

Be that as it may, there was no way that Third Brother could be blamed for being an ingrate.

After all, he was simply unconcerned with the entire matter. It would not matter how Old Sheng would accuse him either, because what could the family do to him if he simply insisted that he was not aware?

Moreover, he was really proud of Eighth Brother’s success.

It was especially after he saw how much stunningly Sheng Xiao changed over the last six months that he really felt that only those who see the big picture would succeed.

Soon, Sheng Xiao’s stunning appearance became a topic of discussion amongst all noble circles. Even the three rich kids who tried to make Sheng Xiao kneel finally revealed the truth.

“Actually, Sheng Xiao was the one who taught us a lesson back then. Come to think of it, the Crown Prince would only ever be the Crown Prince… simply amazing!”

Hence, Sheng Xiao’s mere presence turned the entire venue into his personal stage as everyone else faded away.

Sheng Kai did not last until the end either, because he was utterly disgusted at the mere thought of Sheng Xiao abandoning Huang Yao to work at Zhongteng.

He did not even call out to Third Brother when he left with Gu Ziling—since he was close to Eighth Brother, go snuggle up all you like.

They found Old Sheng watching television in the living room when they returned to the Sheng House.

He appeared impassive, with both hands placed over his cane.

Sheng Kai came to him. “Grandfather…”

The old man took a look at the time and replied, “You’re early. Did something happen?” historical

“I have something to tell you, but I’m afraid that you might become too agitated.”

“Just tell me. What have I never experienced?” Old Sheng smiled shortly.

Sheng Kai took a deep breath and glanced at Gu Ziling, and only told the old man after getting her approval. “We met the person in charge of Zhongteng at the gathering.”

“So?”

“It’s… Sheng Xiao.”

The old man was taken aback. “Who?”

“Sheng Xiao. He had founded Zhongteng in the six months after he left Huang Yao… or perhaps even before that. He just did not announce it to the public and played everyone for fools. Did he not suddenly appear before everyone to slap our family in the face?”

Sheng Kai became more agitated the more he spoke.

On the other hand, the old man asked again as if he did not clearly hear Sheng Kai. “Who?”

“Sheng Xiao!”

The old man promptly smashed the table before him at that, throwing the glass all over the floor.

Gu Ziling was startled. She had never seen the old man react so excessively, and it was obvious that he still bore strong hatred towards Sheng Xiao.

And that same hatred was now rising again.

Could the old man feel calm?

Clearly not.

Soon, the old man returned to his study and called up his various friends to confirm the news.

Sheng Xiao becoming the CEO of Zhongteng, and becoming even more well-off after leaving the Sheng family?

No!

He could not accept such an outcome!

As for Sheng Kai? He simply sat at the living room, waiting and wondering when Third Brother would finally return.

Hence, the old man was seated paralyzed in his study while Sheng Kai in the living room, grandson and grandfather’s mood significantly ruined.

Therefore, when Third Brother took a cab home after the gathering was over smelling like alcohol, Sheng Kai was utterly infuriated when he saw him.

“Did you know before that Sheng Xiao owns Zhongteng before this?”

Third Brother promptly turned towards the couch at his words, walking up to Sheng Kai when he saw him and answering solemnly, “No. I only learned about it tonight as well.”

“Then how do you explain Sheng Xiao’s assistant bringing you home before?”

“I don’t know him.”

“We’re brothers. Do you think you could hide anything from me?” Sheng Kai suddenly pressed accusingly. “You are family. Can’t you think from my perspective, or even Grandfather’s?”

Third Brother smiled at the blaming. “Was I the one who made Eighth Brother leave? Made him build Zhongteng? If I wasn’t that person, why take it out on me?”

“You should have told us…”

“I should have told everyone so that you all could go ruin things for him?” Third Brother cut Sheng Kai short. “You know very well what you’ve become in the last six months, Second Brother—and how narrow-minded or dark your heart had become. I don’t need to remind you that I believe Sheng Xiao wasn’t wrong in leaving, and founding Zhongteng is his own business. What are you being angry or jealous for?”

“It is logical that Grandfather hates Eighth Brother. But what right do you have to hate him? You were the one who took over Huang Yao and his stocks. If you did not want it, you could have told Grandfather from the start that you don’t have the power, that you can’t do it!”
