Ling Wei’s words brought the good mood of Madame Ling and Xiao Hong to an end. Asking his assistant to get some fruit from the supermarket and take them over? Ling Wei’s words and tone made it seem like he was trying to get rid of some poor relative. No matter what, Ling Tao was still the chairman of Ling Corporation, even though he was in a coma. Ling Wei was not extremely cocky and arrogant.
“Well! Save the fruit for Qingming Festival and offer them to your ancestors!” Madame Ling said angrily. She was way too agitated to be considerate and elegant, so she threw these words at him.
The moment Madame Ling said these words, all the shareholders present were shocked, and their expressions changed. Madame Ling was known for being harsh and candid, but no one imagined her to say something like offering those fruits to the ancestors here, ignoring the place and crowd.
The more angry and worked up Madame Ling was, the happier Ling Wei felt. “Aunt, what are you saying?” he said. “Who should I offer those fruits to on Qingming? My parents are still healthy and alive. In my opinion, your family need this fruit more. You could offer them to my passed uncle, or maybe save them for Cousin Ling Tao.”
Ling Wei had now definitely crossed the line. Even those shareholders who considered Madame Ling to be harsh started to think Ling Wei should never have said something like that. No matter what, Ling Tao was still alive. Also, being a man and younger, how could Ling Wei say such things to Madame Ling?
Mdm Ling’s face turned ghastly pale. She exhaled heavily and said, “You… Such a despicable…You…”
Despite Ling Wei being so arrogant, Ling Tianya was still calm and she said, “Uncle, we do not need any fruit. Shall we begin?”
Ling Wei nodded and said, “Let’s begin. But before we begin, I have something to say.”Read more chapter at vipnovel
Ling Tianya raised her eyebrows, but she did not stop Ling Wei. She said, “Please.”
Ling Wei stood up with great vigor. He paced around and said, “Ling Corporation was the creation of my cousin Ling Tao. Now he is in such a state, I should take on the responsibility and duty of watching over this place. That is why I did what I did two days ago. Anyway, I acted in good faith. A huge corporation Ling cannot be without a leader, isn’t that the case?”
As Ling Wei paused, the shareholders nodded to show their agreement.
Ling Wei continued, “The tradition was that the children should take on the career of the father. That is indisputable. In the Ling Corporation, my cousin is the chairman, and he has absolute control over decision-making and operations. Now he is in a coma, and there is no indication of whether he will wake up in the future. His career and fortune should be passed on to his children. That is all indisputable.”
Ling Wei seemed to be contradicting himself. The shareholders were all puzzled. What did Ling Wei mean? Was he going to fight for the stocks and business of Ling Tao or not?
Even Madame Ling and Xiao Hong were confused. What had he got up his sleeve?
Ling Tianya stared at Ling Wei with no emotion showing on her face. She knew that this man would never say such a thing without a purpose. He must have some hidden cards, so that he knew that, even if he said these words, nothing would be changed for him.
Ling Tianya was correct. Soon Ling Wei changed his tone. He pushed both of his hands against the round-shaped table as his eyes ran down the room. He set his eyes on Ling Tianya.
“Even though I agree with and support the idea that the children of my cousin should take over his business, the child who does so should be someone who has the capacity for action!”
The moment Ling Wei finished his sentence, everyone felt shocked.
They looked around and looked Ling Tianya up and down. Apart from Ling Tianya being pregnant, they could not tell why Ling Tianya was someone who had no capacity for action.
