Chapter 995: Chapter 994: Compared to Gu Anxi, Their Lives Are Worse Than Pigs and Dogs
Of course, the face of Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law looked awful, sitting there and not uttering a single word.
Bo Nianyao was conversing with Old Wang, and while his words were polite, they were careful. Everything depended on the child’s decisions; they would discuss once Anxi woke up. He implied that it was inconvenient for him to intervene, which was quite tricky.
Just as Old Wang was growing impatient, the Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law spoke in a sarcastic tone, "Why isn’t Anxi awake yet? This child is really ignorant; she’s married but still sleeps in. Someone needs to have Ke Ru talk to her properly."
She then looked at Bo Nianyao with a somewhat fake concern, "You must be more forgiving towards our Anxi. The child is young and has been spoiled by Yun Tian since she was little. I heard she was carried on the shoulders even when she was quite grown."
Bo Nianyao took a sip of tea, as calm as a breeze, "The child is still young and growing. Her mother, Bo Mama, always said she should sleep a bit more. She usually doesn’t wake up before ten. What time is it now?"
He glanced at his watch and smiled, "It’s still early."
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law’s face twisted a bit, and she could hardly believe it.
She was a woman unconcerned with by her husband for a long time, and her husband disliked her even more than his parents, never giving her any favor. As a daughter-in-law, she had to get up early every day to serve her husband and care for her in-laws. She never dared to speak loudly at home, unlike Gu Anxi, who seemed to turn sleeping in into a virtue.
Feeling deeply imbalanced, just as she was about to speak further, Gu Anxi slowly descended from upstairs, "Aunt really cares about me."
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law felt a jolt; although she had some intention to stir up trouble, she didn’t want to confront this child directly.
Gu Anxi slowly descended the stairs, walked up to the dining table, and sat down. Bo Xichen poured her a glass of milk, and casually asked, "Why wake up so early?"
"I’ve slept a little too much during the day these past few days." She stretched lazily and took a bite of the sandwich in Bo Nianyao’s hand, "Thank you, Bo Dad."
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law seized the opportunity, "Why still called Bo Dad? Haven’t gotten the certificate yet, shouldn’t call Dad?"
Her words intended to flatter Bo Nianyao.
Unexpectedly, Bo Nianyao spoke in a faint voice, "We’re the ones who won’t allow it."
Wang Family members whispered to themselves, it seems the Bo Family doesn’t fully recognize Anxi’s position here, then...
While they were lost in thought, Bo Nianyao spoke again, "Mainly because calling Mom and Dad would follow Xichen’s lead, which doesn’t sound close. Calling Bo Dad and Bo Mom, their child seems more like they’re born of Lin Yun and me. It’s nice."
This explanation almost made the Wang Family spit blood.
Can one be spoiled to this extent?
After Bo Nianyao finished explaining, he seemed to disregard Wang Family entirely, his eyes and heart filled only with his darling child.
A young girl having breakfast was treated like a treasure; she loved apples, so the Family Head personally prepared juice for her, specifying the amount because her small stomach needed room for some tonic. The tonic was also personally boiled by the Family Head early in the morning, hot with a sugar cube added, coaxing her to drink it like a small granddaughter.
This stunned the Wang Family.
Wang Family’s elder and younger sister-in-law whispered: This is how one truly lives; look at them, suffering in Wang Family, living worse than pigs and dogs. No, they must take charge.
However, Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law didn’t speak about taking charge anymore, being very miserable herself. Gu Anxi finished her breakfast and with a few words drove her into isolation, continuously pondering whether to go to Qingcheng to drag her husband back.
She was anxious, but Old Wang was more anxious, knowing the company couldn’t wait.
Testing openly and covertly, Anxi pretended not to understand. Eventually, Old Wang couldn’t do anything, bringing out an agreement, looked at Gu Anxi, eyes deep with age, "Anxi, Grandpa left you just one sentence. This company’s shares are yours, but you must secure your two uncles’ livelihood in their later years. Wang Family only has these two lone sprouts."
Gu Anxi, playing checkers with herself, "Grandpa, you’re begging me?"
Old Wang was furious, but still softened his tone, "I’ve been to Qingcheng, told you about the shares, Anxi, you should understand the principle of being merciful, or else you wouldn’t have your status today."
’Alright,’ Gu Anxi clapped her hands, looked up, smiling at the old man, "Since Grandpa has said it all, here, I’ll leave my word too, I will take control of Wang Family for five years, and after that return everything to the two uncles, provided they are capable, otherwise don’t blame me for their defeat."
She chuckled lightly, "Nowadays, Jiangcheng is nothing like before, there’re more jackals out there."
Old Wang, upon hearing this, was both startled and pleased; he believed Anxi because she had no reason to deceive him. He also guessed that she wanted the Jiang Family’s enterprise for her purpose, but he would turn a blind eye, believing it was nothing but beneficial, thus deciding on the matter with a slap on the thigh.
When it came to signing, Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law interrupted, "Old man, you must think this through, Anxi is too clever, what if she doesn’t give it back later, what can we do then?"
Old Wang sneered, "Then why don’t you propose a plan right now?"
His gaze swept the circle below, then spoke slowly and authoritatively, "This decision is made by me; anyone dissatisfied can get out of Wang Family. From now on, Ke Fu and Kegui must listen to Anxi; all company decisions are made by Anxi. Understand?"
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law hastily said, "But Ke Fu isn’t here, shouldn’t we wait for him?"
Once these words were spoken, it stirred a hornet’s nest. The old man was secretly upset, not speaking openly due to her feelings. Now she mentioned this disappointing next generation, and the old man’s anger surged, sniggering coldly, "What can he do, tell me? Aside from messing around outside, what else can he accomplish? Moreover, once that idiot returns, let him see me; I’ll break his leg."
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law dared not speak.
Gu Anxi stretched lazily, smiled, "Aunt, you better watch your gate. Miss Shen isn’t easy; I forgot to tell you, the ladies of Beicheng are very capable, their gates are well-guarded. Don’t underestimate them, indeed now even a tearful face can seduce uncle’s soul away."
After speaking, she had Manager Ma review the agreement. Confirming no issues, she signed it.
Listening, Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law felt very uneasy, falling silent.
Old Wang settled the matter, issuing instructions upon returning, "Don’t think Anxi’s words unpleasant, she speaks the truth. In the past, Ke Fu treated that woman as mere entertainment, but now he might be serious. Whether for your sake or Xiao Chen’s, think wisely about keeping a man’s heart; first be gentle and sensible, ponder this well."
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law said nothing, her mind a mess.
Meanwhile, after signing, Gu Anxi let the lawyer take care of it. Directly phoning Lin Yuan to handle the matter, Wang Family promptly resumed operations, speedily and successfully, not missing a business beat. The old man was delighted, inspecting the company while praising, "Anxi is indeed impressive, handling affairs thoroughly; with the company in her hand for five years, who knows what the future holds."
Wang Family’s elder and younger sister-in-law found his attitude unpleasant, while Wang Kegui echoed in agreement. After returning home, the two sisters-in-law began to frustrate each other with complaints.
"Eldest sister-in-law, with Anxi acting like the head, will our lives get better?"
"No, with Ke Fu and Kegui restricted everywhere, and living like before probably impossible, thinking the money for us now goes to Wang Keru for big diamond rings makes me uncomfortable."
Just after speaking, the younger sister-in-law glanced at her, then slowly said, "Eldest brother’s wife, I have something to say, not sure if it’s appropriate."
Wang Family’s eldest sister-in-law now just needed a confidant, "Go ahead."
