My father's inheritance is my mortal enemy.

Li Bo woke up the next morning because of the heat.

He instinctively tried to stick his hand out from under the covers to cool off, but as soon as he moved his hand, his wrist was rubbed by something and hurt a lot, as if it was tied up by something.

Li Bo struggled to free his hand again, groaning in pain. His eyes, glistening with tears, slowly opened, and the first thing he saw was a head of silver hair.

Li Bo's heart skipped a beat.

"Don't move around." Zhou Yanshao said lazily, "You kept me awake all night."

Li Bo recalled the events of last night bit by bit. After getting drunk, he begged Zhou Yanshao to take him home, and then asked Zhou Yanshao to make him some porridge. After drinking it, he didn't sleep for long before his stomach felt uncomfortable, so he got up, drank a glass of water, and then... he went into Zhou Yanshao's room.

Li Bo had a fever and felt very hot. Zhou Yanshao, who was used to exercising, had warm hands and feet. Li Bo snuggled up to him and soon took off his clothes because of the heat.

Li Bo is a light sleeper; he can turn over at the slightest sound or disturbance.

Zhou Yanshao was fast asleep and had no idea that someone had gotten into his bed. He only woke up after Li Bo tossed and turned several times.

She climbed into his bed in the middle of the night, whimpering and taking off her clothes...

It's impossible for a normal man not to react, let alone Zhou Yanshao, who had already tasted the sweetness of it.

Zhou Yanshao knew all too well how wonderful Li Bo's body was.

Two years ago that night, Zhou Yanshao was so captivated that he didn't want to be separated from Li Bo for even a moment. Li Bo's legs were slender and long, her waist-to-hip ratio was excellent, and even her voice was beautiful when she cried and begged for mercy.

Li Bo slept soundly. Zhou Yanshao grew angrier the more he thought about it, even wanting to throw Li Bo out. He was furious, but stopped himself when he was about to act. He took a shower, and when he came back, he grabbed a belt, tied Li Bo's hands together, wrapped his arms around Li Bo's waist, and pulled him into his arms.

Now Li Bo couldn't move or turn over, and finally calmed down, but Zhou Yanshao's anger didn't subside, and he didn't sleep all night.

Just as I was about to fall asleep, Li Bo started whimpering again...

"Eat something before you sleep." Li Bo turned his hand, flicked his fingers, and after a few gropings, easily unbuckled the leather belt on his wrist. His waist was pressed against a thick arm, and his side was being squeezed by a large hand. Zhou Yanshao's hand was very hot.

Li Bo raised his hand and ruffled Zhou Yanshao's hair; the silver hair felt wonderful to touch.

"What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Zhou Yanshao grabbed Li Bo's hand, his brows furrowed, and his eyelids slightly lifted: "And then?"

Two years ago, when Li Bo woke up, she also said she would make him breakfast.

As a result, as soon as he left, he called Zhou Huiyuan and suggested sending Zhou Yanshao abroad.

Zhou Yanshao's tone at this moment was filled with dissatisfaction and anger.

Li Bo calmly said, "Then I went to work."

Zhou Yanshao's breathing deepened slightly, and he maintained his calm, nonchalant, and seemingly unaffected demeanor.

He pulled his hand away and let go of Li Bo: "Don't touch my hair anymore, it's annoying."

Young Master Zhou has never liked others touching his head.

"Excuse me." Li Bo stood up, put on his stocking clips, tied them tight, and put on his shirt and trousers. He was once again the elegant, refined, and noble CEO Bo.

Li Bo came downstairs, and the butler was about to come upstairs. The two met face to face, and the butler smiled and said, "Mr. Bo, breakfast is ready."

"No, I'll wash up and then leave. I have things to do at the company," Li Bo said. "Yan Shao is still sleeping; he probably doesn't want to eat. Let's prepare some for now."

"it is good."

Li Bo went downstairs, quickly washed up, and prepared to leave Xizi Bay. The butler caught up with him: "Mr. Bo, you should at least take your medicine before you leave, even if you don't want to eat."

Thank you.

Li Bo's head still hurt a little. The butler handed him a pill and some hot water: "You can't take cephalosporin now, this medicine isn't very effective."

"That's very thoughtful."

"It was ordered by Young Master Zhou."

"..." Li Bo looked up, glanced upstairs, and stayed to have breakfast.

Li Bo ate breakfast before going to the company. He had just sat down when his secretary announced that a guest had arrived—an old friend of Mr. Zhou.

The arrival of Master Zhou's old friend to find Li Bo is clearly a recipe for a bloody conflict.

Li Bo smiled and went to the reception room. His secretary left two cups of tea and then left.

"Uncle Xiang," Li Bo said respectfully.

The man called Uncle Xiang took a couple of sips of tea: "Xiao Shao's back?"

"Yes."

"You've seen him?"

"Um."

Uncle Xiang raised an eyebrow. "Please be lenient with Xiao Shao."

"Of course, it's understandable that he hates me."

Uncle Xiang nodded. "You didn't attend the Li family elders' birthday banquet?"

Li Bo shook his head: "It's time to sever ties with the Li family."

Looking at Li Bo's expressionless face, Uncle Xiang, who had watched the boy grow up since he was a child, felt somewhat confused. He could only hope that Zhou Huiyuan's choice would not be a mistake.

Uncle Xiang handed over the notarized certificate of inheritance. "After all, the Zhou family business is a family business. It's understandable that the other shareholders have some complaints about you. How you manage it and how you win their hearts depends on your abilities."

"I see."

"When is Xiao Shao leaving?"

"They said it would take half a month."

Uncle Xiang was somewhat surprised: "The coach agreed?"

"Yes, otherwise he probably wouldn't have been able to come back," Li Bo said. "I'll take good care of him, Uncle Xiang, don't worry."

Uncle Xiang looked at Li Bo and smiled, his expression a mix of relief and disdain.

Even if Li Bo were to acquire the largest stake in the Zhou family's winery, Zhou Yanshao's position would still remain unshakeable.

After seeing Uncle Xiang off, the hungover CEO Wen arrived late, signed the contract with Li Bo, received a phone call about an urgent project in Haicheng, and returned that same day. Li Bo personally took him to the airport and then went to Zhihuai.

Zhihuai is the Zhou family winery.

Inheriting shares through a will would disrupt the original balance of shares. However, if the company's articles of association stipulate that the inheritance of shares requires the consent of half of the shareholders, otherwise the other shareholders may purchase the shares held by the heir.

With Zhou Huiyuan's passing, the Zhou family's long-standing dominance in the capital was not due to incompetence, nor could it have been without a leader. Now, Li Bo, being an outsider, is destined to be ostracized.

It will not be easy for Li Bo to successfully inherit the Zhou family's shares.

No sooner had Li Bo arrived at the company with the documents and instructed Zhou Huiyuan's secretary, who had served him for many years, to convene a shareholders' meeting than he received news that the shareholders were requesting leave.

Today is the seventh day after Zhou Huiyuan's death, and Li Bo came to Zhihuai with a notarized certificate of inheritance. His behavior was truly unsightly and would be extremely offensive if word got out.

The peaceful situation that had lasted for many years in the Zhou family seemed to be shattered by a will.

But Li Bo knew that the Zhou family had been secretly plotting for years, and his appearance just happened to give the other members of the Zhou family a chance to rise to the top.

Li Bo had anticipated this, and without haste, he had his secretary schedule a time for next Friday.

When Li Bo left Zhihuai, he encountered reporters at the entrance. He smiled slightly, got into his car, and drove away.

Today, Li Bo's trip to Zhihuai became a trending topic.

Li Bo didn't check his phone; he was busy until evening.

At 10 p.m., his phone, which was on the table, vibrated.

Zhou Yanshao accepted his friend request: [Where are you?]

-

A private billiards hall.

Sun Shengyang invited Zhou Yanshao out to play billiards. After sinking the ball in one shot, he raised his chin and looked at Zhou Yanshao: "Brother Shao, my dad's been pressuring me to get married lately. How about I go abroad next month and stay with you to avoid the heat?"

Zhou Yanshao raised an eyebrow: "Let's see."

Sun Shengyang said urgently, "What are you looking at?! This is an emergency, brother! I've never asked you for anything before! This is the first time!"

Zhou Yanshao rubbed his billiard cue with chocolate powder, his eyes deep: "I don't want to ski anymore."

"What?!?!"

Sun Shengyang's cue slipped from his hand, and he wondered if he had misheard.
