Besides, this was a losing deal.

In Shanghai. In an office on the highest floor of a certain towering landmark building, there was an overhead floor. The entire floor occupied a large space, and it was the exclusive office of the boss. Here, because of the height and the unique design, one could remain awake all the time if one had a fear of heights. At the same time, one could experience the feeling of ‘being at the top of the world where even mountains looked small’.
Jin Si walked in. “Mr. Sheng, we’ve done what you asked.”
“Okay.” Sheng Tingze was as cold and rigid as ever. There were only documents on his table.
He was still busy at work when he answered Jin Si. Nothing seemed to warrant his attention except work.
Jin Si adjusted his glasses as if there was something more difficult he had to say.
Sheng Tingze was a little impatient. “What else is there?”
“Well… Um… Your uncle came looking for you.”
“…” Sheng Tingze frowned.
Why would he come here? He obviously didn’t know anything about the company he ran. Not even his real parents knew about it.
Sheng Tai swaggered in and sat down on the sofa as if he was at home. “Nephew, your company and office are not bad. No wonder you ignored my father when he said that he’d give you Sheng Corporation. My father thinks that you’re not afraid of Sheng Yang snatching Sheng Corporation away because you underestimated your enemy. Now it seems that it’s not you who’s stupid but my father.”
Sheng Tingze rubbed his forehead. “What can I do for you?”
He wondered if his uncle, who seemed the most unprofessional but might actually be the smartest and most sober one in the entire family, was here to cause trouble.
After all, he had bought over Sheng Corporation. Right now, his uncle no longer had a steady stream of dividends every year and could only survive on his existing money.
“This is how it is…” Sheng Tai suddenly leaned forward and sat on the chair opposite Sheng Tingze with a mischievous smile. “After Sheng Corporation was acquired, my silly brother directly gave me my shares in one go. I don’t think this arrangement is good. How about this, Nephew? I’ll give you the check I got from the shares and you can manage things for me. Just treat it as me investing in your company and give me dividends every year. After all, I’m afraid I’ll spend it all in one go.”
“…” Sheng Tingze felt that his uncle was really shrewd.
Before this, it was his father who worked hard. Every year, his uncle would just eat, drink, and play. He would lie down and spend his dividends.
Now, it was his turn. He would work while his uncle would continue to eat and drink while getting dividends.
The loss of Sheng Corporation had nothing to do with him. His life would remain unchanged.
“I’ll leave the check here.” Sheng Tai put down the check and stood up. Then, he looked at Sheng Tingze. “Such a handsome face can clearly attract bees and butterflies, but he chose to accompany cold documents in a black-and-white office every day. I don’t understand. I really don’t understand.”
At this point, Sheng Tai suddenly smiled playfully. “Nephew, is it because you haven’t seen the outside world that you like such a boring life? Since I’ve also invested in your company now, how about I take you to a high-class club in return?”
Sheng Tingze suddenly had a headache. He pushed the check out silently.
Seeing this, Sheng Tai said, “Forget it. How boring. I’m leaving.”
He walked away while shaking his head.
Sheng Tingze stared at his back and did not know what to say. However, Sheng Tai was probably the first to realize that he was the one who had bought over Sheng Corporation. Sheng Tingze rubbed the words ‘Sheng Hanjing’ on the screen. Even his meticulous second brother was a step slower this time.
