After arriving at Hai City, I went straight to Nan House.
Second brother was in the study dealing with business and he looked a lot better. He had recovered to the point where he could walk without a crutch, but at a slower pace.
“This time, I’ve wronged you.” Second Brother said softly.
“Never mind. It’s good that it’s resolved. I never expected that Second Brother, never wanting any fight, keeps being made difficulty by others. What going to do this time?”
“I don’t want to fight back.” His answer surprised me.
“Just let it go? If we haven’t found out the truth, Second Brother would have been kicked out by them this time. How can you let them go so easily?” I was a little excited.
Wenbei Su thought for a while, “So what will you do if you were me?”
I hadn’t really thought about it, but I also didn’t know what to do.
“I won’t let them go anyway. Being kind to your enemy is cruel to yourself. They won’t be grateful if you let them go this time and they’ll just get worse.”
“But that’s my Big Brother and he’s not my enemy. What do you want me to do?” Second Brother frowned.
“Second Brother treats him as a Big Brother, but he never treats you as a younger brother. You are doing well in the group, so he thinks you’re a threat and he wants to kick you out as soon as possible. If you just keep putting up with it, he’ll get worse. Then the fight will be endless until he forces you to leave, otherwise he will never stop.”
Wenbei didn’t say anything. He should have thought about this question for a long time.
“Little sister, there’s a problem you haven’t thought about. If the rivalry between me and him is known by the public, it will have a very bad effect. Su family has always had a good reputation in Yang City, so if there is an internal fight now, people will laugh at us.”
“It’s normal for you to say this, but we might as well learn something from Hua family in Hai City over this matter. In the beginning, Leon’s Big Brother also wanted Leon to leave, but later Leon fought back and took the position of the chairman. Although he sacrificed some benefits, the stability of the group was maintained. So, the best way to end the fight is to win and control the whole situation.” I said my opinion.
“This made sense. But Su family is in a different situation. Dad and Aunt Jiang are still alive. Although the family structure of Hua and Su families are similar, they are actually very different. So, you can’t deal with Su family’s matter in the same way.”
I thought about it, “You’re right. Although the two families look similar, they aren’t exactly the same. They are indeed very different.”
“Let’s put this aside. Let Dad and Aunt Jiang handle it. If they think that this matter should be left alone, then that’s fine.”
Since he made up his mind, I had no choice but to let it go.
At this time, the phone rang and it was from the chairman’s office, saying that he wanted me to go to the headquarters for a business meeting. And, as soon as possible.
Half an hour later, I rushed to the Nanhe Group headquarters building. As soon as I arrived at the entrance, I saw Xiaodong Su.
He actually seemed to be waiting for me and walked straight over to me. “Nala, borrow you for a minute.”
I was uncomfortable with him calling me like that and a little disgusted.
“The chairman called me for something. I’m not convenient.” I said coldly.
“Just two minutes. I won’t waste too much of your time.” Xiaodong pointed to the aisle, wanting me to come over.
I’d like to hear what he could say to me. There were CCTV everywhere and security guards, so he wouldn’t dare do anything to me. So, I followed him over.
“How is Wenbei now? Why didn’t he come with you?” Xiaodong’s first question was about Wenbei.
“Second Brother is busy and he doesn’t have time to come over.” I said indifferently, “Go straight. I don’t have time.”
“You don’t need to hide anything from me. I had someone investigate. The garbage thrown out from Wenbei’ s house was found a large amount of Chinese medicine residue, which meant that he was having a serious illness. You kept saying that he had been busy with a project and you really think you can really hide it?”
I was shocked. Xiaodong was not east to deal with, for he thought of such a way. Fortunately, Wenbei has almost recovered now, or else he really would know the truth.
Since he took the initiative, I also wanted to dig out something.
“Check the trash? Wenbei’ s poisoning was originally manipulated by you. Do you think I don’t know about it?”
“What do you mean, he was poisoned? I thought he was just sick! I had nothing to do with this, so how is he doing now?”
“He can’t get up from the bed, unable to move as normal people. Almost a disabled. Are you happy?”
“Bedridden? In other words, he is still lying in bed, unable to move at all?”
“He has to be fed by someone else for his meals and only his eyeballs can move, and it’s all your fault that Second Brother is the way he is!” I said out loudly.
“No, no, it’s nothing to do with me. If I knew he was crippled, then I wouldn’t have to do so many things. Now that you guys have even found evidences, why should I do these? Since my brother turned out to be crippled, I don’t have to toss it around that much. What a waste of my time.”
When I observed his words and actions, it didn’t seem like he was pretending. He should be telling the truth. So, it seemed that he really had nothing to do with the poisoning of Second Brother? If it wasn’t him, then who would be the one who wanted to harm Wenbei?
“Since he is crippled, the group will definitely be under my control from now on. Things are easier now. You don’t have to have any difficulty in choosing, for I’ve observed your performance, which I admire, so just follow me from now on. What Wenbei can give you, I can give you too. What he can’t give, I can still give you.” Xiaodong was in a good mood.
“Oh, really? What do you need me to do?” I tested.
“You’ve got a lot of evidences against me, haven’t you? When you meet dad later, just tell him that all the evidences are forged. Then you admit that Wenbei made you steal three hundred million dollars of public money. An easy thing for you.”
“If I admit it, then what about myself? I have to save myself too.” I said deliberately.
“Don’t worry about that. Dad is very fond of you. Even if you have made some small mistakes, dad will forgive you. In the future, if Wenbei only cares about his own health and think nothing about the group, I won’t make things difficult for him no matter what happens. Then you and I will work together to make the group prosperous. Wouldn’t this be the best plan?”
What he said was familiar, but I didn’t know who had said it to me before.
“But what if I don’t agree?”
He laughed, “If Wenbei wasn’t crippled, then you still have something to look forward to, but now that he is crippled, you don’t have any choice. You can only follow me, or you won’t be able to stay in Su family.”
