Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

After listening to his mother's words, Le Jiahao, who was originally quite angry, became somewhat confused. He didn't know if what his mother said was right or wrong, but at least it sounded quite reasonable.

Le Jiahao thought for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Mom, you didn't decide to invest in this project because of your relationship with Cui Zhongxian, did you?"

The truth will eventually come out, and rumors about Cui Zhongxian and his mother eventually reached his ears.

Although he was somewhat unhappy, he couldn't control his mother, and such things were inevitable among wealthy people in large families.

Men with money will find mistresses, and women with money will also find lovers, either strong men who can help them, or simply younger men who bring them emotional value.

Hearing her son ask her this question, Cheng Wanyi showed no shame whatsoever. Instead, she smiled and said nonchalantly, "What happened between me and Cui Zhongxian is my personal matter."

"Your deadbeat father is no longer useful. I can't be expected to live a life of widowhood with him forever. I've been cautious and timid my whole life; it's not unreasonable for me to want a new life of my own!"

Cheng Wanyi's motto is "As long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed."

If you can't even control your own son, how can you establish yourself in the Le Group?

"Mom, that's not what I meant. I'm just a little worried..." Le Jiahao stammered, unsure of what to say next.

Cheng Wanyi immediately interrupted him forcefully, saying in a tone that left no room for doubt, "What do you have to worry about? You are my son. Would I ever harm you?"

My relationship with Cui Zhongxian is one of cooperation, or you could say mutual exploitation. He uses the funds I have, while I use his connections and resources to invest in projects. We each get what we need.

I, Cheng Wanyi, have come a long way from nothing to where I am today. Do you think I would still become a silly, love-struck girl like those young girls?

Jiahao, you are my own son, a piece of my flesh. We are connected by blood, and naturally, you are the person I trust the most. No matter how good other men are, I will never have this kind of trust.

Do you think I would transfer the assets of the Le Group to another untrustworthy man? What benefit would that bring me?

Le Jiahao said somewhat embarrassedly, "Mom, that's not what I meant. I just feel a bit uncertain about this matter, and the scale of this investment is too large. What if we lose money?"

"There's no such thing as making money without losing in business. Man proposes, God disposes. Just do what you're supposed to do. In the years I've been with your father, the Le Group has had its ups and downs, but we've made it through, haven't we?"

"Jiahao, don't worry, you are the sole heir of the Le family. The Le Group is yours, and no one can take it away. I will not allow anyone to take what belongs to my son and me."

Having said all that, Le Jiahao could say nothing more. He didn't know what to say, so he could only nod in agreement helplessly.

However, feeling somewhat unwilling to give up, he sought out his older sister, Le Mengyao, and confided his distress and doubts to her, hoping that his half-sister could give him a better answer.

"Sister, what should I do? You say the Le Group is mine, but I can't make the decisions; you say the Le Group isn't mine, but I'm the only heir of the Le family."

To be honest, I want to have power in my own hands, but she's my own mother, and I can't bring myself to do it. Besides, I'm also a little worried that if I were in charge of the Le Group, I might ruin it...

Le Mengyao held her child, patting and soothing him while listening quietly to Le Jiahao's story. After the child fell asleep, she put him in the stroller and then began to chat with her younger brother.

"Jiahao, now that I'm a mother myself, I understand a mother's feelings towards her child. From her perspective, she would never intentionally harm you."

As for you, your problem isn't whether or not to take over now, but whether you have the ability to take over the Le's Group. If you can't take over the Le's Group, you need to find a professional manager.

And when it comes to reliability alone, no one can compare to Aunt Cheng, don't you think?"

Le Jiahao nodded slightly.

Le Mengyao smiled and continued, "The problem with Aunt Cheng is that she has enough life experience, but whether she has the qualities to manage a group company is still unknown."

From the current perspective, her approach is to rely on other men and bind herself to them. If these men can handle things well, the Le Group will take off; otherwise, it will decline.

"You mean to say that my mother is pinning her hopes for the future development of the Le's Group on someone else?"

"That's true, but that doesn't mean this approach is necessarily unworkable. It depends on Aunt Cheng's judgment. As long as she chooses the right person, the Le Group can develop in a positive direction."

Furthermore, given Aunt Cheng's lack of business acumen and your inability to shoulder the responsibility, this is currently a relatively good development strategy for the Le's Group. Don't you think so?

"Sister, why don't you come back to the Le Group? I feel more at ease with you taking the lead in the Le Group!"

Le Mengyao smiled and shook her head: "Hehe, aren't you afraid that I'll fight you for control of the Le Group when we get back?"

"Sister, we both share the surname Le, so we're family. Whether you control the Le Group or I do, it's the same."

"What, now you think that Aunt Cheng controlling the Le Group is not the same as you controlling the Le Group yourself?"

Le Jiahao fell silent, lowering his head and saying nothing more.

Le Mengyao shook her head again and continued, "Actually, even if someone close to you controls the Le Group, it's different from you controlling it yourself."

The most crucial issue here is whether you yourself have the ability to control the Le Group. Obviously, you don't have that ability yet. So, whoever controls the Le Group will be problematic for you.

Besides, Aunt Cheng would never let me return to the Le Group. If I went back, it would only cause internal strife within the Le Group, which would not benefit the company.

I'm living a very comfortable life now and have no plans to go back.

"Sister, is that Li Xiaofeng really that good? He can't even offer you marriage!"

Le Mengyao said sweetly, "This world is not perfect. If you try to pursue perfection, you will end up with nothing. I want to be able to have marriage anytime, but there is only one Li Xiaofeng!"
