The Chen Family Mansion.

In the study.

Chen Rulong sat in a chair, holding a yellowed photograph, staring at it intently.

In the photo.

A spirited middle-aged man was accompanied by a woman with bright eyes and white teeth, and a boy of about twelve or thirteen years old.

The boy's face was still very childish.

He has clearly inherited his parents' excellent genes and even surpassed them. Although he is still young, he already has the makings of an exceptionally handsome young man.

Chen Rulong looked at the photo of the once happy family of three.

His eyes were full of longing for the old days!

What a happy family!

"I'm such an idiot, what have I been doing all these years?"

"You've turned a perfectly good home into this!"

Chen Rulong suddenly became agitated, his eyes filled with guilt and pain, and his hand holding the photo trembled uncontrollably.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

He couldn't help but cough.

She subconsciously pulled out a handkerchief and covered her mouth.

But they discovered that the handkerchief was covered in bright red blood.

He stared in disbelief at the bloodstains on the handkerchief.

The condition has worsened again!

He himself doesn't know how much longer he can hold on like this.

Just then.

The butler, Luo Changgui, knocked on the door and came in carrying a bowl of decocted Chinese medicine.

Seeing Chen Rulong's condition, he was startled, quickly put down the Chinese medicine, and rushed over: "Master, how are you?"

Chen Rulong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and said casually, "It's nothing, the same as always, it's just that the situation is getting worse every day..."

A hint of sorrow flashed in Luo Changgui's old eyes, but he quickly concealed it and picked up the Chinese medicine again: "Master, I've already brewed the medicine. Drink it while it's hot!"

Chen Rulong waved his hand: "It's called conservative treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, but in reality, there's no cure. It's better not to take this medicine."

Luo Changgui cried out in a sorrowful voice, "Master?"

Chen Rulong was about to say something when he heard Luo Changgui's mournful cry and couldn't help but look at Luo Changgui.

Seeing the deep sorrow and pleading in the old steward's eyes, he sighed softly, "Alright, alright, I'll drink it."

After saying that, he picked up the Chinese medicine and drank it all in one gulp.

After finishing the drink, she handed the bowl back to Luo Changgui, only to find him secretly wiping away tears.

He couldn't help but ask, "Are you crying?"

Luo Changgui shook his head.

Chen Rulong chuckled self-deprecatingly, “Heh, they say that after many years of being master and servant, you become brothers. In my opinion, you are much more reliable than my so-called brothers. At least when I was abandoned by everyone, you still stood by me.”

Luo Changgui said, "I've been with your master for decades, and all I've ever done is run errands for him. Without him, I'm nothing, so I naturally wouldn't dare forget my roots."

Chen Rulong nodded and said slowly, "It's good that you don't forget your roots!"

"Old Luo, you're right. One should never forget one's roots."

"I forgot my roots back then and mistreated Chen Yun and her son. Because of that woman Xiao Wenwei, I've ended up in this situation."

"Heh heh, this is the punishment for forgetting one's roots!"

Luo Changgui glanced at the yellowed photo on the table, unsure of what to say.

When Chen Rulong mentioned Xiao Wenwei, his face turned ashen, and his eyes were filled with barely concealed anger: "Old Luo, do you know that woman Xiao Wenwei wants me to accompany her to the Qin family's gathering tomorrow to try and befriend some important person!"

"Oh!"

"How dare she humiliate me like that!"

"She's been cheating on me with Qin Lu, and she even has the nerve to ask me to go with her to the Qin family to try and curry favor with some big shot?"

"There are countless ways to humiliate me, but she chose the most infuriating one."

Luo Changgui lowered his head and said weakly, "Sir, you can politely decline on the grounds that you are not feeling well."

Chen Rulong sneered: "That's what I said, but that woman surnamed Xiao said that attending the banquet tomorrow night is a matter of life and death for the Chen family, and I have to go!"

"Listen to this, she's become the savior of my Chen family."

Luo Changgui opened his lips as if to speak, but then stopped.

After his initial agitation subsided, Chen Rulong sighed and said, "I abandoned my wife and children for her, and now I'm being humiliated and tormented like this by her. Perhaps this is God's punishment for me!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

His phone rang.

The phone call was from Lei Zhihua, the vice president of Tianjiao Group!

Chen Rulong was slightly taken aback when he saw this.

He no longer cares much about company affairs.

Why did Lei Zhihua call him overnight?

He picked up his phone and answered the call.

Lei Zhihua's voice came through the phone: "Chairman, I'm so sorry to disturb your rest by calling so late, but there's something I have to tell you!"

Chen Rulong knew that Lei Zhihua was Xiao Wenwei's man, so his tone was very cold: "Speak, I'm listening!"

Lei Zhihua said, "Chen Yun already holds 35% of Tianjiao Group's shares, making him the company's largest shareholder. Chen Yun asked me to inform the chairman and other board members to attend the board meeting on time tomorrow, as he has important matters to announce."

What?

Chen Yun quietly acquired so many shares?

He has become the largest shareholder of Tianjiao Group!

A board meeting is being held to announce important matters?!

Chen Rulong was stunned!

Immediately, a barely perceptible hint of joy flashed deep in his eyes.

The moment has finally arrived!

He's finally waited for this moment!

He knew his days were numbered, and his only hope for the rest of his life was that Chen Yun could return to the Chen family and inherit the Tianjiao Group.

The illness worsened day by day.

He even doubted whether he would live to see that day.

But unexpectedly, this moment came without warning.

Chen Yun certainly didn't disappoint him!

On the other end of the phone, Lei Zhihua waited a long time for Chen Rulong's response, then forced himself to say, "Chen Yun said that if you, Chairman, don't attend the board meeting on time tomorrow, it will be considered that you..."

Chen Rulong said in a deep voice, "I will appear on time!"

Lei Zhihua was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "That's good. I've already informed President Xiao. I won't disturb your rest any longer, Chairman. See you tomorrow."

Chen Rulong hung up the phone, looked at Luo Changgui, and said with barely concealed excitement, "Old Luo, I've been waiting for you."

"Chen Yun is back."

"He already owns 35% of the company's shares and will convene a board meeting tomorrow as the major shareholder."

"If I'm not mistaken, he's about to confront me and Xiao Wenwei, hahaha..."

Luo Changgui couldn't help but say, "Master, it's a good thing that the eldest young master is back. But since he's back for revenge, and you're on his kill list, that might not be a good thing!"

Chen Rulong waved his hand: "It's alright!"

“I wronged them back then, and that’s what I owe him. I’ll accept whatever revenge he wants.”

At this point, a cold smile appeared on his face, and he continued, "I only have two wishes before I die: one is that Chen Yun inherits my family business, and the other is that I go to hell with that bitch Xiao Wenwei!"

"I'm afraid both of these wishes will come true tomorrow!"
