“What if I can make you the heir of the Li family?”
Li Junhao became speechless.
Seeing how Li Junhao immediately shut his mouth, a hint of hope and joy in his eyes, Du Yanzheng showed a satisfied smile on his face.
All the hustle and bustle of the world was for profit.
Even if they were brothers by blood, and Li Juncheng had always been nice to Li Junhao, Li Junhao was never happy with this state.
Then, he suddenly thought of Yan Mo. If he was still alive, he would never be like Li Junhao.
As Du Yanzheng kept quiet, Li Junhao asked, “Just because you’re saying that you can do it doesn’t mean that I’ll be the next heir of the Li family. Do you have a misunderstanding of the Li family? My family is just as powerful as the Du family. Even if you could control the Du family, it doesn’t mean that you can control the Li family as well.”
“You have a Real Estate company called Bo Hao. You have been using the Li family’s name in order to get investors and to help grow your company but from how it looks now, it didn’t work out that great. Aren’t you worried about illegal fundraising? If the numbers don’t tally in the end, are you going to get the entire Li family involved in it?”
A sharp look appeared in Li Junhao’s eyes.
“How did you know about this?”
Bo Hao Real Estate was a company that he had set up in secret under the name of one of his subordinates; even his parents and brother had no idea about it.
Previously, the person who had been helping him got replaced, and the new personnel in charge of the project made some plans for that piece of land that was to be developed.
The land that he bought was initially the hottest area in the newly developed area, but it suddenly became the most deserted place with the new development plan, which was why he had suffered such a huge loss.
The most important thing here was that he didn’t want his family to know he bought the land with illegal funds.
His priceless treasure had turned into a no man’s land, and he would never be able to repay those funds in the future. Although his family would be able to settle these debts, this incident would throw him further away from the company. He would never be able to be involved in any of the company matters, which was what made Li Junhao extremely mad.
“You don’t have to know how I know about it. I only have 2 questions for you. Do you want to clear these debts with the help of the Li family? Do you want to earn a fortune from this land?”
“You can help me with that?” Li Junhao’s eyes narrowed with suspicion.
“Well, that would depend on whether you can stay away from Fei Wanling.”
“Fei Wanling is the daughter of the Fei family and I am the Second Young Master of the Li family. Even if I made a loss in this business deal, my family will definitely help me with it, and I will still be the Young Master of the Li family.”
“But… You will be a powerless Young Master. Once Li Junchen takes over the Li family, and when he gets married, you will naturally become an extended Li family member.”
Seeing how Li Junhao was still keeping quiet, he continued.
“Since Second Young Master doesn’t seem to be interested in my suggestion, you can just forget about it. You can leave now.”
Du Yanzheng had already commanded him to leave.
When the bodyguards came close to him, Li Junhao screamed out loud, “Wait a minute! The condition that you offered was for me to become the heir of the Li family. Now you are asking me to give up on a good marriage for just one business deal?”
“Asking you to leave Fei Wanling is my idea. Even if you don’t agree to it, I’ll have ways to get her to follow my orders. As for you, I am only offering for you to be the next heir as a reward. I need you to fight against your big brother, which is why I’m helping you. However, you don’t seem to be interested. So, you need to leave.”
“Something went wrong between you and my big brother?”
“I don’t like talking to dumb people. Leave!”
Although Du Yanzheng was being extremely rude, Li Junhao still wanted to stay.
He made up his mind and said, “Fine. I believe that Du Young Master would be able to help me with the spirit that you had while taking control of the Du family. I won’t be asking anymore questions. If you need anything in the future, just let me know and I’ll make sure it’s done.”
A villainous smile bloomed on Du Yanzheng’s face. It was as if he was the Emperor and everyone around him was not worth his effort.
