A pond full of blooming flowers, an ultimate addiction.

"Yu Shuqing is pregnant. Congratulations, Cheng Ling."

Chi Ruiche continued to spout nonsense, and even the two sophists, singing in unison, couldn't withstand the truth.

Chi Chengling stood there blankly, damn it, he had actually forgotten about this.

"Jingwen, your good son has come here today to demand an explanation."

Grandpa Chi's eyes were like sharp knives, revealing a fierce look that seemed to cut people apart.

"Dad, Xiao Che is just proving his innocence, please calm down."

Chi Jingwen poured a cup of tea and placed it back on the table.

"Now that things have come to this, Xiao Che and Cheng Ling, you should take a break for a while. Cheng Ting will temporarily take over as vice president of the Chi Group."

Behind his brown sunglasses, Grandpa Chi's eyes were like amber, concealing an unspeakable indifference.

"Dad, look."

Chi Zhendong, who has been following financial news closely, saw the report published on the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the National Supervisory Commission:

"The investigation revealed that Chi Changnan, a current shareholder of the Chi Group, abused his power to purchase original shares at a low price for profit, which constitutes the crime of bribery. Moreover, this plan was conspired with others and was not proposed by Chi Changnan alone."

"Whether Chi's has made false statements or material omissions, Chi's stock has reportedly fallen 10% this morning, and Chi's senior management has not yet responded to this."

Chi Chengting raised his tail, exuding an aura of alertness; clearly, this report had put him on guard.

"Hahaha~"

Grandpa Chi suddenly laughed, but upon closer inspection, it was a strange laugh that vanished in an instant.

"I should be very pleased that the student has surpassed the teacher."

"It seems that you, Chi, really don't care."

Grandpa Chi's voice wasn't loud, but every word he spoke was exceptionally clear.

Chi Jingwen's confident face seemed to tremble with coldness, and his smile froze instantly. He had been cultivating Chi Ruiche for many years, and he was full of confidence that Chi Ruiche could take over the Chi family business from his father.

"If Grandpa has nothing else to say, I'll take my leave now."

Chi Ruiche deliberately raised his wrist and turned his watch, completely ignoring the strange look his father gave him.

Did I let you leave?

Grandpa Chi's words were sharp and authoritative, leaving no room for refusal:

"The annulment agreement between you and Jiang Yi has been drafted. If you insist on not letting go, you will lose your right to inherit the Chi family business."

Grandpa Chi's threatening words were like sharp knives, piercing Chi Jingwen's heart. His voice was deep, and his eyes were filled with a fierce light, as if he were warning them.

"Do you think we still have the ability to take it back now, Grandpa?"

Chi Ruiche did not back down, and continued to hurl insults at him, each word sharp and forceful.

"Don't forget, everything you have now is thanks to me."

Grandpa Chi's tone was sarcastic; how could he easily get rid of the pawn he had personally nurtured?

Chi Ruiche stared at his grandfather, his blood relative, with a sinister look in his eyes, like an enraged lion.

"Do you really think I don't know that you orchestrated Jiang Yi's car accident?"

"You schemed against the Jiang family, you schemed against Grandma, was it really flawless? Or were you just using everyone as stepping stones to pave your own way from beginning to end?"

Chi Ruiche ruthlessly exposed him, tearing off his hypocritical mask.

Grandpa Chi and Chi Ruiche locked eyes, their gazes filled with a chilling intensity and an undisguised murderous intent.

Grandpa Chi's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the boy with a completely new gaze. "You brat," he thought, "I've schemed for half my life, how could I let him be ruined by Chi Ruiche in the end?"

Now that he knew, he stopped hiding it and wanted to see just how much skill he had acquired over the years.

"Xiao Che, apologize to Grandpa."

Chi Jing'an stepped in to smooth things over, walking over to Chi Ruiche and winking at him, signaling him not to confront them directly.

Chi Jingwen's face turned ashen, his contorted features resembling a ferocious lion. He picked up a teacup from the table and smashed it at Chi Ruiche.

"Kneel down and apologize to Grandpa."

Chi Ruiche let out a muffled groan, straightened his back, and raised his head.

"Jingwen, I await your answer regarding this matter."

Grandpa Chi's voice was loud and clear, and the wrinkles on his face deepened as a result.
