Chapter 966: Chapter 965: Useless at Everything Except Petty Schemes
The eldest brother of the Wang Family was scolded harshly by the old man, feeling dissatisfied, muttering, "Maybe it isn’t that way, maybe the old man is thinking too badly of her. I don’t think so, how old is she anyway, how could she have such scheming?"
The old man looked at him.
Wang Kefu added, "Perhaps she’s just childlike, finding no fun in it anymore and wants to be a young mistress at home, living comfortably. You should have seen how much she enjoys herself, definitely not someone serious about business, old man. I think people outside have hyped her too much; in my opinion, it’s just her pretty face that’s useful."
"A pretty face so useful?" The old man snorted lightly and then sneered, "I just don’t believe it!"
At this point, it was the second brother of the Wang Family who spoke, "This matter, I think we should wait a couple more days to see Lin Yuan’s reaction. If there’s no withdrawal, it means that Anxi is behind this, and the shares..."
He lowered his eyes, speaking painfully, "They’re not sincerely given, it’s just giving the old man a choice. If you want to enjoy the benefits, you have to obediently listen to her, and in the future, the company will be under her control."
The old man was furious, and he was getting on in years; his body failing him, shock having taken its toll, causing him to sway as if about to faint.
At this moment, the eldest brother of the Wang Family immediately acted, "Old man, got it."
"Got what? How could I have gotten anything?" The old man was displeased, picking up something to hit his eldest son, "Your mind is full of women, women, and now you’re talking nonsense too. If I beat this unfilial son to death, I’d have some peace."
Wang Kefu evaded while shouting, "I have an idea, not saying you have anything, old man."
He said aggrievedly, "Even the old lady couldn’t have anything, how could you, old man?"
The old man was about to hit him again, and he promptly said, "I mean, I mean, this little brat Anxi is full of tricks, so we can’t take the usual route. We need to fight magic with magic."
"Ha, what magic to fight magic? I don’t understand, speak plainly."
Wang Kefu chuckled awkwardly, "This matter, well, it has to be like this."
He leaned close to the old man’s ear, whispered a few words. At first, the old man was disdainful, but then his eyes brightened, and eventually, he approved, unable to help but say, "This idea is good! Kefu, you’re really something; you’re not good at much else, but you’re number one at sneaky tricks."
Wang Kefu chuckled, "I don’t know if the old man is praising me or insulting me."
Wang Kegui smiled, "The old man is appreciating you."
Wang Kefu felt smug, "I also think this idea is feasible. Well then, old man, please bear with it for a while."
The old man stroked his beard, and at this point, his gaze landed on that stack of documents, looking at his second son, "Put it away first."

The next day, the old man fell ill.
He was seriously ill, as if he didn’t have much longer, and the whole Wang Family was in tears at the hospital. Gu Anxi naturally got the news, and even Wang Keru received a call, saying the old man wasn’t doing well, anger overwhelming him, fearing he couldn’t make it through.
Wang Keru looked at Gu Yuntian, "Yun Tian, what should we do?"
Gu Yuntian sighed, "It’s obviously just an act, probably to get you to teach Anxi a lesson."
Wang Keru was anxious, ’Then what should we do?’
Gu Yuntian put down the book beside him and laid down, "Seems like we can only fight magic with magic. In that case, I’ll go lie in the hospital for a few days."
