Chapter 94 Explosive Past Events
Inheriting an estate?
It's quite valuable?
Or is it Gu Yao?
When I heard these words from Qian Sheng.
Then the moment they are put together.
A strange expression immediately appeared on my face.
Could it be that Qian Sheng was referring to inheriting a fortune?
This refers to the 50 million yuan inheritance that Gu Yao inherited from Aunt Gu's bank account.
But that money must have been from my father's will before he died.
Because Aunt Gu committed suicide by jumping off the bridge.
According to Zhao Ming, that money was taken away by Gu Yao's biological father.
But why am I hearing from Qian Sheng that Gu Yao is inheriting the estate?
Qian Sheng saw the confusion in my eyes.
He thought I didn't understand this.
But in fact.
My thoughts are completely different from Qian Sheng's.
Qian Sheng was still explaining to me: "Gu Yao's mother committed suicide by jumping off a bridge. She inherited a fortune of fifty million!"
I frowned, the more I thought about it, the more something seemed wrong.
So he asked, "Brother Qian, it's just a mere fifty million. With your assets, you could easily come up with one or two hundred million."
Why would you pursue Gu Yao for the sake of 50 million?
Qian Sheng seemed to have guessed this problem long ago.
Qian Sheng immediately laughed and said, "Brother Lu, I knew you would ask this. You're right, fifty million is a small amount of money, but there is a much larger right of inheritance that is still in Gu Yao's hands!"
A greater right of inheritance?
What is this again?
I've never heard of it before.
I grew up with Gu Yao, and we spent a lot of time together.
When did she suddenly have an even bigger right of inheritance?
I asked, "What about a greater right of inheritance?"
Qian Sheng said, word by word, "Starry Sky Group!"
The words fell.
I was completely stunned.
"What? You mean Xingchen Group? You don't mean Xingchen Group, which is among the top ten companies in China, do you?"
"That's right, it seems Mr. Lu is quite knowledgeable!"
When I heard Qian Sheng say that, I felt like he was mocking me.
Gu Yao actually has the right to inherit the Star Group?
This was completely beyond my imagination.
It's worth noting that Xingchen Group is one of the top ten groups in China.
Its ranking is even higher than that of the Summer Group behind Lin Xia!
Summer Group ranks among the top 20 in the country.
"I've never heard of this before, Mr. Qian. You didn't just hear about it from others, did you?"
Qian Sheng immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum.
"This is genuine news, absolutely not hearsay or fake news!"
"The senior management of Xingchen Group has already made a decision."
"We are preparing to welcome Gu Yao back to Xingchen Group to take charge of the group's overall situation in a while."
"By then, Gu Yao's status and position will truly soar to new heights."
Qian Sheng's face showed bitterness as he spoke.
"So, Brother Lu, now you understand how much pressure I'm under!"
"For the sake of the family, I have no choice but to humble myself and try to please Gu Yao. If I can marry her successfully, it will be like letting the Qian family get on board with the Xingchen Group!"
"I'll reveal my true nature after I get married, and then I won't be afraid anymore."
Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
Qian Sheng is really straightforward.
Whatever was in my heart, I said it out loud.
However, I am still more curious.
What exactly is Gu Yao's relationship with Xingchen Group?
So I asked further, "Why did Gu Yao become the heir to the Star Group? And who is the current chairman of the Star Group?"
Qian Sheng heard me ask that question.
He wore a shocked and exaggerated expression.
"Damn, Brother Lu, I was just praising you for your excellent information network, and you don't even know about something this big?"
I gave an awkward smile and quickly coughed to ease the tension.
"I've been too busy lately and haven't been paying attention to what's going on outside."
Qian Sheng realized that he needed my help.
So he immediately changed his tone of shock.
Then he earnestly explained to me, "About a few days ago, the chairman of Xingchen Group suddenly passed away from a heart attack."
"After his death, the huge Star Group was leaderless for a time and urgently needed someone to take the helm."
"But to take the helm of the Star Group, strength or status alone cannot win people's respect."
"It must be sufficiently legitimate!"
"In other words, it means finding the successor of the chairman of Xingchen Group."
Qian Sheng took a sip of tea and then continued his story.
"Actually, everyone knows that the chairman of Xingchen Group, although he has married multiple women in his life, has never been known to have children."
"There are rumors circulating that the chairman of the Star Group seems to have some issues in that area, which is why he can't get pregnant."
"After the chairman suddenly passed away from a heart attack, all the senior executives of Xingchen Group began frantically searching for the chairman's possible descendants!"
Hearing this, I already had a vague idea of what was going on.
I said, "For those in the upper echelons, whoever finds the chairman's descendant first and brings him back to the company is the one who will succeed."
"Then he would be equivalent to a major meritorious official who welcomed the crown prince back to the palace in ancient times, and his status would only rise in the future."
Qian Sheng grinned and said, "Brother Lu's summary is timely, that's exactly the point! Those people are desperately searching for the chairman's descendants because they want to welcome the future chairman back to the company to take charge and, incidentally, elevate his status as well."
"Then everyone searched and searched and searched! And wouldn't you know it, our Qian family was the first to discover an important secret!"
As soon as I heard this secret, I immediately perked up.
Then, widening his eyes, he asked, "What secret?"
Qian Sheng said in a low voice, "The chairman of Xingchen Group has no son, but he has an illegitimate daughter!"
"We highly suspect that this illegitimate daughter is Gu Yao!"
Upon hearing this, he was completely dumbfounded.
Something is wrong!
Aunt Gu was indeed divorced before she met my father.
Moreover, he brought young Gu Yao to my house at that time.
But wasn't Aunt Gu's ex-husband that gambling addict?
How did he become the chairman of Xingchen Group?
I couldn't help but refute Qian Sheng's point of view.
"Brother Qian, as far as I know, Gu Yao's mother's ex-husband was a gambling addict, right?"
Qian Sheng grinned, looking at me with delighted surprise.
"Brother Lu, I didn't expect you to know so many secrets!"
"That's right, Gu Yao's biological mother's ex-husband was indeed a gambling addict!"
"But this gambling addict is not her ex-husband. To be precise, they have only been living together for less than half a year."
"Six months before they started living together, Gu Yao's biological mother was actually a nanny in the home of the chairman of the Xingchen Group!"
At that moment, I was completely dumbfounded.
The cause, process, and outcome of the matter were completely different from what I had previously known!
And what upset me the most was that...
What Qian Sheng said might actually be the truth!
