Chapter 476: Chapter 476: You’ve Missed Your Chance
Every time Sheng Sidong met with people from the other two households, things would never go smoothly.
The old man was getting older and couldn’t stand the commotion, so he nodded his head.
"Come stay for a few more days another time," the old man said to them, "It’s almost May Day. If you’re free, come over earlier."
Sheng Sidong responded perfunctorily, "There might be other plans around May Day, we’ll see by then."
The old man said nothing more.
The family of four got up, preparing to leave.
Sheng Qiao, however, glanced around and didn’t see Sheng Tang’s boyfriend, so she quickly asked, "Wasn’t Sheng Tang’s boyfriend supposed to come too? Why isn’t he here?"
"He had something to attend to and left first." Sheng Tang replied lightly.
Sheng Qiao was very disappointed by this.
She hadn’t even had the chance to sow discord yet.
She had heard from her brother and cousin Sheng Rong that Sheng Tang’s boyfriend was very handsome, and she wanted to see just how handsome he was.
At the same time, Sheng Qiao noticed that Sheng Tang had become even slimmer, her looks had improved, and even though she was dressed simply, she radiated confidence and charm.
Sheng Sidong took his children and left the villa.
The old man was also a bit tired and didn’t have a good impression of these uninvited people.
He stood up and said, "Feel free to stay, I will go upstairs to rest for a while. Sister-in-law Qian, prepare dinner for them."
With that, he also walked away.
The old man’s attitude didn’t bother his two sons much, but it made his three grandchildren nervous, feeling that their grandfather still hadn’t forgiven them.
Grandfather’s forgiveness meant access to a large amount of pocket money, which was, of course, very important, and they should go to great lengths to seek his forgiveness.
The old man took a short nap and felt a bit better.
At dinner, he discussed company matters with his sons.
"Dad, summer vacation is approaching, and Zhang is already grown up. How about arranging an internship for him at the company, starting as an ordinary employee? What do you think?" The eldest wife asked softly.
Sheng Zhang quickly looked at his grandfather, "Grandpa, I really want to learn. Please give me a chance."
The old man was unmoved.
His two sons were incompetent, and his grandsons were even worse. He had decided that letting them be pampered and idle was enough; he absolutely wouldn’t let them into the company.
The harm of being pampered and idle was minimal. Letting Sheng Zhang into the company would just lead to more losses.
"No need, your major is art, which has nothing to do with our company. It’s not related." The old man coldly refused.
Back then, Sheng Zhang had terrible grades and was very unreliable. The eldest wife refused to send him away for studies and kept him by her side.
He managed to get into his current university because the eldest wife spent some money.
"Grandpa, it doesn’t have to be the same major. I can learn." Sheng Zhang persisted.
The old man finally said, "No need, you don’t need to enter the company in the future either."
This sentence made everyone’s heart sink.
Sheng Zhang felt like he had been doused with cold water, standing there in disbelief.
He was the eldest grandson. If he didn’t enter the company, who would?
The old man had always valued Sheng Sidong’s two children. Could it be that he would place all his hopes on them in the future?
The eldest uncle had said before that Sheng Tang couldn’t be kept.
At this moment, he had this thought again.
He had been in the company for many years, priding himself as a business elite, adept and shrewd. Dealing with a mere child like Sheng Tang would be a piece of cake.
Now it seemed that besides Sheng Tang, there was also Sheng Zong. Even if the children were gone, the inheritance would still need to be split with Sheng Sidong in the future.
The Sheng Family wasn’t a small household, and dividing the inheritance wasn’t just a matter of a few thousand yuan, but involved large sums of money and company shares.
With 300% profit, capital would dare to trample all the laws of mankind.
How much of their money would Sheng Sidong take? How much would it cost to get rid of his entire family?
The eldest uncle thought to himself, "I can’t be soft-hearted anymore."
