"Mom, don't be angry. Since my uncle thinks I'm not suitable to inherit this 10% of the shares, I'm willing to give up my inheritance rights."

Han Songyan looked at Bai Xiruo with heartache, her eyes slightly red, and choked out, "What nonsense are you talking about? This 10% share must be yours, and no one can take it away."

Bai Kangyan's face was grim: "Alright, Xi Ruo, although you are not my biological daughter, I have taken care of you as my own daughter for the past twenty years. So I am willing to leave you this 10% share. I hope that in the future, you three siblings can support each other and run the family business together. No matter who inherits my position in the end, the other two must remember that you are family. If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. Don't take any chances."

Bai Xiruo nodded, sniffling, "Thank you, Dad. I promise I won't let you down."

Bai Qianmo raised her eyelids and glanced at Bai Xiruo, unable to help but sneer.

"I thought you would at least be modest, after all, just two minutes ago you said you had no intention of taking company shares."

Bai Qianmo's eyes were filled with mockery, like two sharp blades stabbing Bai Xiruo's heart.

Bai Xiruo's pale face froze instantly. She felt a surge of resentment at Bai Qianmo's blatant ridicule and mockery.

A fierce glint flashed in her lowered eyes. "Bai Qianmo, don't be too happy yet. Soon, I will personally send you to hell!"

Han Songyan angrily retorted, "Bai Qianmo, shut up! Who do you think you are, daring to talk nonsense here!"

Bai Kangyan angrily retorted, "You shut up too!"

Han Songyan's heart skipped a beat. Meeting Bai Kangyan's sinister gaze, she swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

He could only glare at Bai Qianmo with hatred.

"If the three of you have no objections, then sign it."

Bai Luoyu was the first to pick up the documents and quickly signed his name.

Following closely behind, Bai Qianmo and Bai Xiruo also signed.

After signing the contract, Bai Kangyan asked Attorney Liao to produce two more copies of the contract.

Attorney Liao said, “These are two properties under Mr. Bai’s name. One is in Jinyu Huating, a duplex apartment with a total area of ​​149 square meters. The other is in Xiangrui Hutong on the Second Ring Road, a century-old courtyard house with two courtyards and a total area of ​​800 square meters. The current market value of the two properties is RMB 129.73 million. Mr. Bai has already registered these two properties under Ms. Bai Qianmo’s name. Ms. Qianmo, if you have no objections, please sign here.”

Bai Qianmo looked at Bai Kangyan in surprise; the 10% stake was within her expectations.

But these two properties were unexpected.

Upon hearing that Bai Kangyan intended to transfer these two properties to Bai Qianmo, both Han Songyan and Bai Xiruo's expressions changed.

Bai Xiruo pursed her lips tightly, her drooping shoulders trembling slightly.

She clearly remembers that last summer was exceptionally hot, and she moved into the house in Xiangrui Hutong with her parents and brother.

Because it was an old house with many hundred-year-old willow trees planted in the courtyard, it was not stuffy even without air conditioning. When Bai Kangyan saw that she liked the house, he even said that he was saving it for her dowry when she got married.

But now, this house belongs to Bai Qianmo!

Feeling humiliated and resentful, Bai Xiruo clenched her hands tightly, afraid that she might blurt out a question.

They say they treat her like their own daughter, but what's the reality?

After facing his biological daughter, all the kindness he had shown her and the promises he had made to her turned into empty promises.

She hated it, she truly hated the joke fate had played on her, and she hated even more that despicable person who had disrupted her life!

"Wait, I disagree!" Han Songyan stood up and walked up to Bai Kangyan.

"Bai Kangyan, you made such a big decision without saying a word, without even asking for my opinion. Why should these two houses be given to Bai Qianmo? You clearly said that they were to be left for Xi Ruo as her dowry."

Bai Kangyan indifferently raised his head and looked at Han Songyan: "The house is in my name, how I handle it is my business, you have no right to interfere."

Han Songyan said angrily, "We are husband and wife, why don't I have the right to ask questions? Even if your name is on the property certificate, it is our joint property, and I have half of the decision-making power. In short, I will never agree to give these two houses to Bai Qianmo."

Bai Kangyan said with a stern face, "Attorney Liao, you talk to her."

Attorney Liao nodded: "Mrs. Bai, in principle, you really don't have the right to decide on these two properties!"

Han Songyan glared at Lawyer Liao with resentment: "Liao Fan, then you'd better explain yourself clearly today. As Bai Kangyan's wife, how come I don't have the right to make decisions?"

“Mrs. Bai, the house in Xiangrui Hutong was Old Madam Bai’s dowry. Before she passed away, Old Madam Bai transferred the house to Mr. Bai’s name. She also instructed before her death that the house was to be left to her granddaughter. According to blood relations, Miss Qianmo is Old Madam Bai’s only granddaughter, so the house originally belonged to Miss Qianmo. As for the house in Jinyu Huating, the developer requisitioned a piece of the Bai family’s land, so it is considered a demolition house for the Bai family. Although the house is currently registered in Mr. Bai’s name, the decision-making power is actually in the hands of the old man.”

Han Songyan trembled with anger after hearing what Lawyer Liao said: "Bai Kangyan, we've been husband and wife for over twenty years, and in the end, you treat me like a thief!"

Bai Kangyan looked at the hysterical woman in front of him expressionlessly: "These two houses are what Qianmo deserves. They are my compensation to her for the past twenty years. Whether you agree or not, it won't change my decision."

Han Songyan sneered, "Very well, we'll wait and see if this brat will ever remember your kindness. When this ingrate has devoured you until there's nothing left, you'll regret it! Xi Ruo, let's go!"

Han Songyan, with a livid face, slammed the door and dragged Bai Xiruo out.

After Han Songyan and Bai Xiruo left, the study was silent for a moment.

Bai Kangyan looked at Bai Qianmo apologetically: "Qianmo, these two houses are not only my heartfelt gift, but also a token of the love and care that the two elders have for you. Please accept them."

Bai Luoyu chimed in, "Both of these houses are within the Third Ring Road. Whenever you want to move out on your own, it's very close to Grandpa, Uncle, and Aunt, especially the house in Xiangrui Hutong, which is only a ten-minute walk from Grandpa's place."

Bai Qianmo originally didn't want these two houses.

Since she wanted to sever ties with this place, she would feel indebted to them if she received anything extra.

But then she remembered what her grandfather had said: if she didn't want it, it would eventually benefit an outsider.

The house in Xiangrui Hutong was part of her grandmother's dowry, so it naturally couldn't be given to Bai Xiruo.

After thinking it over, Bai Qianmo picked up the pen and signed her name neatly.
