Chapter 628: Chapter 627
Ling Yuyang, Ling Xia, and Ling Qing, the three siblings, walked out of the courtyard where their biological father, Ling Shuanghe, resided. On the surface, all three appeared very satisfied with this property division, but in reality, they were infuriated beyond measure and not the least bit content. Ye Tianchen, in his role as Ah Pi, always followed behind them, watching these three malicious individuals act like clowns, bickering and attacking each other incessantly.
As soon as they left Ling Shuangheâs courtyard, Ling Yuyang, Ling Xia, and Ling Qing started to snipe at each other with sardonic comments. To put it plainly, human greed knows no bounds, and they could be considered to have made out like bandits compared to the unfortunate Ling Yue, who had to rely on his own efforts to gain some assets from the Ling Group. They truly got much, much more.
But these three were ruthless, and to get more of the Ling Groupâs assets, they had been scheming for a long time. Ling Yuyang had been moving the Southeast Asian assets to his name bit by bit, while Ling Xia, hearing that their biological father intended to move the Ling Group back to China for development, had thought if she stayed, Ling Shuanghe, who adored her so much, would surely leave her a sum of money. She went as far as to divorce her husband and abandon her two children to return to live with the Ling family, putting on the act of a pitiable divorced woman to win Ling Shuangheâs sympathy. Indeed, she managed to secure ten percent of the Ling Groupâs shares, just like Ling Qing. Itâs worth noting that Ling Xia was given all of Ling Shuangheâs Washington assets when she married, which was why Ling Qing and Ling Yuyang both bore grudges and initially attacked her.
As for Ling Qing, she was the one with the deepest schemes and the most ruthless. Even Ye Tianchen only knew that Ling Qing was very cunning and ambitious, wanting to secure half of the Ling Groupâs assets, unaware that this woman had an even more vicious plan in mind: to kill Ling Yuyang, Ling Yue, and Ling Xia one by one after obtaining her share of the assets, eventually making the entire Ling Group hers.
This time, Ling Shuangheâs distribution was very biased towards Ling Yuyang, Ling Xia, and Ling Qing, leaving his second son, Ling Yue, with the largest injustice. He simply didnât want to see the four siblings tear each other apart over a bit of property. It was a pity that Ling Yuyang and the others were not content, and the assets they expected to inherit were far less than anticipated, leading to extreme anger in all three of them.
All three harbored their own schemes and were playing their own cunning games. Though dissatisfied with Ling Shuangheâs division of assets, they dared not show it in front of him, because Ling Shuanghe was still alive, not deceased. Even though he had distributed some assets of the Ling Group to them, he was still the one in charge. Put it this way, although Ling Yuyang, Ling Xia, and Ling Qing had received assets from Ling Shuanghe, the future income from these assets would be theirs, legally certified. However, if they wanted to fundamentally alter these assets, like selling them, they would need Ling Shuangheâs approval, or the seal that represented Ling Shuangheâs authority. That something was what Ling Yuyang and Ah Pi had quietly been searching for a long time, without any success.
"Big brother is truly generous and bold! Being the eldest son of the Ling family, youâve lost the right to be the helmsman, and now youâve merely obtained thirty percent of the Ling Groupâs shares. All the limelight has been taken by Ling Yue, the second son, who swallowed fifty percent of the shares at once. I feel undervalued and discontented for you!" Ling Xia glanced at Ling Yuyang and continued to taunt deliberately.
Ling Yuyang was taken aback for a moment and clenched his fists tightly. He knew that both Ling Xia and Ling Qing were trying to provoke him to take the lead in seeking more of the Ling familyâs assets. While old man Ling Shuanghe was still alive, it would be extremely difficult to get additional shares of the Ling Group without his consent. There was also the risk of being driven out of the Ling family estate and the entire Ling Group. If one person made a move, the other two could look for the right opportunity to act!
"Hmph, Iâm already satisfied; letâs just wait and see!"
With a cold snort, Ling Yuyang gave Ling Xia and Ling Qing a look before walking ahead. Ye Tianchen came to his senses and hurriedly followed. Now posing as Ling Yuyangâs trusted Ah Pi, it was natural for him to stick with Ling Yuyang. At this moment, Ye Tianchen felt even more that solving the issues of the Ling family estate wasnât as simple as fighting and killing. He needed to know much more in order to proceed.
"Ah, it truly is sad for some, losing the helmsman position and, as the eldest son of the Ling family, only getting thirty percent of the shares. Itâs hard to tell whether youâre the eldest son or an adopted one. But I, Ling Xia, am content. I just feel sorry for the others!" Ling Xia intentionally sighed and spoke loudly towards Ling Yuyangâs retreating back.
"Itâs a shame! Such a shame that I, Ling Qing, am but a daughter. Otherwise, I would have stopped at nothing to get what I deserved. Why should Ling Yue get fifty percent?" Ling Qing also shouted loudly at Ling Yuyangâs back.
Upon hearing Ling Xia and Ling Qingâs words, Ling Yuyang just paused for a moment, then walked away. Ye Tianchen followed calmly, aware that Ling Yuyang was not a simple character and might take some action next. Ye Tianchen dared not take it lightly: first, because the three venomous individualsâLing Yuyang, Ling Xia, and Ling Qingâwere all formidable, demanding a battle of wits, and secondly because Ye Tianchen continually sensed a chilling presence within the Ling family estate, very powerful, yet his Superpower Perception could not locate its source after combing through every corner of the estate. This indicated that the person was extremely well-hidden, a master who needed to be carefully guarded against.
After seeing Ling Yuyang leave, Ling Xia and Ling Qing each gave each other a fierce glance. Ling Xia was the first to speak, "Younger Sister Four, congratulations on securing ten percent of the Ling familyâs shares before youâve even married. Thatâll be enough even if youâre alone until old age!"
"Really? Third sister, you got married only to get divorced, and there are plenty of men in this country who like divorcees like you; youâve got quite the charm. Do you want me to introduce you to some? But let me tell you, even if you cling to the Ling family estate for the rest of your life, you canât bring any men into the estate. That would cause a huge uproar!" Ling Qing also retorted with a cold laugh.
"You... Hmph, fourth sister, you itch down there if you donât have a man for a day. Should I make that public?" Ling Xia said with a cold snort, infuriated.
"You... Third sister, you and your man faked a divorce, pretended to abandon your child and gave up all your previous wealth to run back home and deceive the old man. Should I tell everyone about that?" Ling Qing said fiercely, equally enraged.
In the end, both women, who were no easy pushovers, glanced at each other and then turned away to leave. It was clear that they harbored deep animosity towards each other in their hearts, and any sisterly or familial affection had long since gone to hell.
Ye Tianchen had been following behind Ling Yuyang all this time. Ling Yuyang didnât say a word the whole way and headed straight for his own residence. Ye Tianchen felt fortunate that he had encountered Ling Yuyang at Ling Shuangheâs place; otherwise, finding Ling Yuyangâs quarters in the vast Ling family estate would not have been an easy task.
At this moment, inside the quadrangle where Ling Shuanghe lived, Ling Yuxun was brought by her grandfather into the study. Once inside, Ling Shuanghe looked around and said to Ling Yuxun, "Yuxun, close all the windows, draw the curtains, and shut the door!"
"Grandfather..." Ling Yuxun asked, puzzled.
"Hurry up, we donât have much time, I have something very important to tell you!" Ling Shuanghe said quickly.
Seeing her grandfatherâs serious expression, Ling Yuxun hurriedly closed all the windows and doors and drew the curtains, while Ling Shuanghe took a seat at the desk, pressed a button quietly, and suddenly, the whole study was filled with red light. Yuxun was stunned, having visited her grandfatherâs study countless times without ever noticing these things. It seemed that Grandfather Ling Shuanghe had prepared well in advance.
"Yuxun, we have two minutes. This is the most advanced soundproofing equipment in the world. Even the most skilled people canât see whatâs inside, and the most powerful canât hear our conversation. I have something very important to tell you now, listen carefully!" Ling Shuanghe said seriously.
"Grandfather, just tell me what it is, Iâll remember it clearly!" Ling Yuxun said, nodding without daring to ask more. SŃarch* The NovŃlĆire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Well, first, you must leave the Ling family estate as soon as possible, donât worry about me, itâs too dangerous. Second, whatever happens in the future, especially when Ling Group is in turmoil, go sit at the chess stone table in the backyard where I often play; just look and sit, perhaps you will find some good inspiration. Thatâs where I often ponder deeply!" Ling Shuanghe said earnestly.
"Grandfather, you wonât have any problems, youâll definitely come back to China safely with me!" Ling Yuxun felt as if her grandfather was making his last wishes, and said, somewhat emotionally.
"Silly child, do you remember what I said?" Ling Shuanghe asked seriously.
"Remembered, Iâve remembered!" Ling Yuxun said, with tears welling up in her beautiful eyes. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to recommend it at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
