1182 The Person He Cared About the Most
“Whether you admit it or not, my blood still runs through your veins.” Rong Cheng smiled. “I’m quite glad to have a son like you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be at ease handing the Rong Corporation to anyone.”
When Rong Xi heard this, she pursed her lips as if she was unhappy.
However, she had to admit that Rong Si was more capable than her. He was the most suitable person to inherit the Rong Corporation. She had heard that the Rong Corporation’s performance was thriving and was even more glorious now than when her father was in power. It was almost on par with the Su Corporation…
Rong Si coldly looked at him, not caring about any praise.
“I heard that you are managing the Rong Corporation very well. I’m gratified. In short, I’ll leave the Rong Corporation to you.”
“Cut the crap! Where’s Little Jiu?”
“Don’t worry! You’ll see her.” Rong Cheng smiled weakly. “But before that, I hope you can see this.” Rong Cheng looked at Qiao Man with a complicated expression.
Qiao Man took out a document, stood up, and handed it to Rong Si. “Here, take a look.”
Rong Si reached out and took it. His instincts told him it wouldn’t be anything good. When his gaze fell on the cover, he saw that it was a contract.
He opened it and looked at it. His eyes revealed coldness and mockery, as if he had seen something ridiculous.
Rong Cheng glanced at Qiao Man again, then his gaze landed on Rong Si again. His eyes flickered. “Ah Si… I know I’m very sick, and I might not have much time left. Before I die, can I ask you… a son of the Rong family, to help take care of your sister and stepmother? After I die, they’ll be fatherless and a widow…”
Before he could finish, he saw Rong Si sneer.
It was as if ice and snow had been dropped into the room. The temperature in the entire ward seemed to have instantly dropped by a few degrees. Qiao Man and Rong Xi felt chills run down their spines at the same time. Rong Si had not done anything or said anything, but it was already enough to make them shudder!
Qiao Man recalled the first time she had seen him. He had been young, and she hadn’t taken him seriously at all.
But now…
He was no longer that little boy. He was a ruthless person in the business world. After obtaining control of the Rong Corporation, he had annexed the Qiao family’s business at an unimaginable speed.
On the day the Qiao family declared bankruptcy, Qiao Man’s parents had cried and scolded her for being an idiot. Why hadn’t she treated Rong Si better back then and insisted on going against him? Now, there was nothing left!
Just like that, she became an outcast of the family. Everyone felt that it was her fault. She couldn’t stand such pressure and could only think of this method to force Rong Cheng to return the Qiao family’s assets. As for the Rong Corporation… she also asked for some shares, thinking of it as fighting for Rong Xi!
Qiao Man knew that Rong Si probably wouldn’t agree to the terms of the contract.
However, it did not matter. The person he valued the most was in her hands. Even if he did not want to, he had to agree!
“Now you acknowledge that the fatherless and widow have a hard time?” Rong Si looked up, his dark eyes frosty and malicious. “When you abandoned my mother and me, did you think about us like this?”
His hand clenched around the document, turning it into a crumpled ball.
“Ah Si, I’m sorry… I’ve indeed let you and your mother down… I know that no matter what I do, you won’t forgive me. Now… I’ve also received what I deserve.” Rong Cheng looked pained. “I don’t want you to repeat what I did back then. Don’t tell me… you want to be like me?”
