Qin Jiang's icy voice resounded in the private room like a thunderclap, causing everyone to freeze slightly. His words had contained far too much information:
Half-siblings!
He abandoned his wife and children!
Go and become a live-in son-in-law!
.....
Each word sounds incredibly strange in today's family reunion setting, unconsciously conjuring up a scene:
Why would a man marry into a wealthy family and become a live-in son-in-law, abandoning his wife and children, causing his wife to die of depression and his son to be kidnapped and become a homeless person? Such things are not unusual when heard alone; unfaithful men are never rare. But in today's grand family reunion occasion, it seems unreasonable.
after all:
The fact that Chairman Ma was able to abandon his wife and children proves that he is a ruthless person who doesn't care about his family at all for wealth and glory.
The fact that the Ma family married into the woman's family proves that the Ma family's power came from the woman's side, and that they were able to achieve their current status by relying on her.
So today's family reunion seems unreasonable!
Putting aside the question of whether such a being could truly be found after searching for over a decade, the fact that the person was eventually found was that his half-brother came to claim him.
What was Ma Li taking Si Jiu back for? To fight for his position as heir and to claim his rightful share of the family fortune.
Even if he was pressured by his father, even if he had no choice but to come, who was he trying to fool by pretending to feel sorry for Si Jiu and acting like he was seeing his own older brother...?
unreasonable!
This is completely unreasonable!
Just as Qin Jiang said: I'm afraid they have other motives!
At this moment, everyone looked at Ma Li with a strange gaze, and even the Black Dragon members' eyes turned cold.
That's a joke!
Could it be that they're planning to trick Brother Sijiu away... or what? To cut off any possibility of him returning to the Huanyu Group.
Zhu Zheng's gaze turned cold.
at the same time.
He looked at his brother Jiang with a hint of surprise.
Jiang Ge just now implied that he knew Si Jiu's background, but when did he find out?
Why was I completely unaware of this? Could it be that there was an intelligence department within Black Dragon that I was unaware of?
Or:
Brother Jiang has other methods!
He wasn't angry about the matter; he only felt that his brother Jiang was becoming more and more mysterious and awesome.
Si Jiu looked at Qin Jiang with a feeling of gratitude. It turned out that Brother Jiang had already investigated everything for him without him even realizing it.
I guess they didn't tell me because my background was too shady: my father abandoned me, my mother died, and I was kidnapped! What a disastrous start!
Qin Jiang's expression remained calm: He had not investigated the matter of Si Jiu in this life, but he had investigated it thoroughly in his previous life.
It took a lot of time, resources, and manpower to find out that Si Jiu's father was a hoodlum who, after marrying Si Jiu's mother and having children, met a wealthy woman and abandoned his wife and child! Si Jiu's mother couldn't bear it and died shortly after giving birth to him. Si Jiu first went to an orphanage, then was trafficked to a circus, and later was adopted...
However, in his previous life, Qin Jiang did not discover that Si Jiu's father was Ma Jun, the chairman of Huanyu Group! Nor did any scene of recognizing relatives occur!
He didn't know:
In his previous life, Qin Jiang's rise to power was too slow, and he was still only active in the North District. These low-level thugs had a fixed medical point: clinics! They would get treatment at clinics for minor injuries, only going to larger hospitals for serious wounds. This led to a situation where, a few years later, when the large hospitals collected blood samples from Ma Jun, Ma Jun had already undergone a kidney transplant and had completely given up searching for his son who had been living elsewhere. Therefore, it could be said that Qin Jiang, like a butterfly flapping its wings, caused the change...
...
Old Hu thought to himself, "This is bad... This situation... is not quite what I expected... The Ma family has such a legend... What exactly is Ma Li's purpose in coming here...?"
.....
Ma Li looked grim.
He hadn't expected Qin Jiang to know so much about what happened back then, which completely disrupted his plans to reunite with his family. He could only forcefully say, "Chairman Qin! I don't quite understand what you're saying! Wei Biao is my father's older brother. Why wouldn't I feel sorry for him being away from home? My father didn't come to Songjiang because he was too busy with work. It's perfectly normal for me, as his son, to come."
"I'm very grateful for your care of my elder brother over the years, and Huanyu Group will also compensate you! But that doesn't mean you can slander me... much less slander my father. He only wanted his long-lost son to return home and acknowledge his ancestors. What did he do wrong... Who can really know the details of what happened back then? The grudges of the older generation shouldn't involve this generation..."
He spoke with great conviction.
Unfortunately, Qin Jiang was too lazy to argue with him: what's done is done, and it doesn't matter whether he's genuinely trying to change or has other motives. Some mistakes are irreversible.
Qin Jiang said coldly, "Go back and tell that old man in your family! Make Si Jiu acknowledge his ancestors: He doesn't deserve it!"
"As for you... go back to where you came from... don't let me see you in Songjiang..."
As he spoke.
Qin Jiang stood up: Zhu Zheng, Si Jiu, Zhao Shanhe and others did not dare to hesitate, and their gazes toward Ma Li were now only cold.
Ma Li:....
Seeing Qin Jiang and the others about to leave, he couldn't agree to it and shouted, "Qin Jiang! I'm here to take my older brother to Shanghai, not you! What gives you the right to make decisions for my brother!"
"Big brother! Say something! Father is still waiting for you at home. As long as you come back with me, you will also have a share of the inheritance rights of Huanyu Group. Then we will split it in half."
"You don't need to worry about your future. Compared to Huanyu Group, Black Dragon Group is nothing. Just go back to Shanghai and Huanyu! Your status will be much higher than it is now, instead of being someone's bodyguard... The Ma family is destined to be high above! How could we be someone else's lackey!"
These words were spoken.
The gazes of the crowd toward Ma Li became even more complicated.
Is this person in such a hurry to bring Sijiu back to share the inheritance with him? Does he truly care about family ties, or...?
The latter is more likely!
Hu Laoliu's lips twitched twice; Ma Li's behavior was practically an open declaration that he had a problem...
certainly!
Until now, everyone is focused on the inheritance rights!
tread!
Si Jiu looked at Ma Li coldly and said, "First of all: I am not a bodyguard! I am Wei Biao, the vice chairman of the Black Dragon Group!"
"Secondly, I have family! My name was given to me by my grandmother, and my life was given to me by Brother Jiang."
"As for you and the Ma family... that has absolutely nothing to do with me..."
...
"you...."
Ma Li, having been humiliated repeatedly, could no longer bear it: "Damn it! You guys really have guts... Qin Jiang: You're just a local thug, aren't you? You think you're so great just because you have a few underlings swaggering around Songjiang... What are you acting all high and mighty with me! Who do you think you are, you little brat..."
And you, Wei Biao! The Ma family of Huanyu Group coming to acknowledge you as relatives is an immense favor to you. Are you grateful and hurry back to Shanghai with me to see your father? And you refuse? Who gave you the courage to refuse? You're a bunch of shameless bastards…"
"I'm putting this out there: today, whether you acknowledge our kinship or not, you have to! I'm going to cross the river like a dragon today!"
