Chapter 330 The Chris Family is Divided in Two
Chris wreaked havoc within the family, and by the time the old patriarch and Ming Si were released, their power was already gone.
Looking at the new faces in the manor and Paul, who was left without treatment, the old patriarch felt an overwhelming sense of regret.
Why did I have to mess with Chris? I knew what kind of person he was. Now... it's over, it's over, it's really over.
He couldn't help but ask, "Chris, what good does it do you to have your family overthrown?"
"I'd like to."
What?
Chris looked at the old man and sneered, "I told you before, you didn't take my warning to heart, so don't blame me."
The old man stood there, stunned. He... Chris had indeed said something, even trying to show that he didn't care about Bai Yuxin, and asked them to stop, but what did they do?
He continues to do things his own way.
The old man looked much older, his face weathered and somewhat helpless: "Chris, you can't do this. This family will all be yours in the future, yours! You can't destroy it. This is Chris's century-old legacy! You can't do this!"
“I don’t want to destroy it either, but its existence has fueled your desires and ambitions, making you forget your original intentions. Standing at the pinnacle of power, you have become arrogant and careless about life. So I have no choice but to destroy what you are so proud of.”
Chris's next words were like a bombshell: "I have divided the Chris family in two, transferring one half to Lu Jingxiao and the other half to Yuxin. From now on, there will be no more Chris family."
Because he wants to marry into the Bai family!
From now on, he's a member of the Bai family!
"You...you unfilial son, you..." The old man was furious, clutching his chest, his expression one of great pain.
What a rebellious son!
It's absolutely blatant retaliation.
"But don't worry, I've also left you 100 million, enough for you to enjoy your retirement." Chris used the most ruthless methods to uproot the family's business.
Some things are shut down, some things are destroyed.
He broke his own wings and destroyed the paradise the old man cared about.
A look of regret appeared on the old man's face. If only he had known... he wouldn't have stopped Bai Yuxin from being with Chris.
Look at the state they've become... they brought this on themselves.
"Chris, you can't do this! The Chris family is a top family in the US. How can you ruin it? You can't! How am I supposed to face God? How am I supposed to explain this to my elders?"
In Chinese parlance, their families were ruined by their own hands, and they have no way to build ancestral temples in the afterlife.
But why doesn't Chris care at all?
This is a century-old family in the US, why would he do this?
Chris remained unconcerned: "Grandpa, the family's internal system has long been rotten to the core, truly rotten to the core. Ever since the family rules drove Dad to his death, this family should no longer exist. But you weren't satisfied with just driving Dad to his death; you also killed my child, my and Yuxin's first child!"
Yuxin was so careful in trying to protect her child, even though she knew she might be tied to the Chris family and become a tool for having children, she was willing to endure it all.
But how did fate reward her?
The more carefully you protect a child, the less likely you are to have any real connection with them.
That's his child.
How could the old man do such a thing?!
"I didn't!" the old man roared hysterically!
He realized he couldn't explain himself at all; why was he being accused of something he hadn't done?!
He didn't want to harm the child!
"Do you think I believe that?"
For the first time, the old man felt powerless, a powerlessness that emanated from his very bones.
"I'm your grandfather, why don't you believe me?"
"If you can harm your own son, it's not surprising that you would harm a great-great-grandson."
The old man realized that no matter what he said, Chris wouldn't believe him.
This is the first time I've encountered someone like this...
Chris was preparing to leave. He had already ordered all the other villas to be razed to the ground, leaving only the main villa of the manor, which greatly reduced the family's territory. The old man and a few servants would basically be enough.
Let him retire like this.
It was his final act of mercy.
Chris was holding a contract, a transfer agreement. Was he really going to give the Chris family to Lu Jingxiao?
The old man quickly grabbed Chris's hand, his eyes filled with pleading: "No, you can't, Chris, you can't give the family to someone else."
"If you dare to give it to me, I'll kill myself."
However, Chris didn't care at all.
"what ever."
He was certain that the old man couldn't possibly be dead, so he withdrew his hand and left without looking back.

Lu Jingxiao looked at the contract in front of him with a complicated expression. He pushed the contract in front of Chris and said, "I don't need it."
"Chris, I just want to vent my anger for Weiwei, I don't want these things."
Faced with the Lu family's assets, what the Chris family cared about was completely irrelevant to him.
Chris's expression was very serious: "I know that what I have in front of you is not enough. I just want to make up for it. I have divided the family business into two parts. One part is for you. After you and Miss Luo get married, this will be your joint property. The other part is my betrothal gift to Yuxin, which belongs to Yuxin."
Lu Jingxiao: "??"
This... Auntie found a son-in-law to live with her, and this man in front of her is going to be Yuxin's live-in son-in-law.
Perhaps it's true love.
So I'm willing.
If Weiwei wanted to stay in the Gu family, he would be willing to become an adopted son-in-law and bring all his belongings with him... But Weiwei now... He misses Weiwei and wants to go back.
"Are you sure?" Lu Jingxiao asked in a deep voice, "Your aunt and uncle have already moved their businesses to China, and you... are you willing to do the same?"
“Of course,” Chris replied casually. “I really like China and I’d like to stay there. As for the businesses in the US, I’ll hire a manager and have Yuxin come and visit occasionally.”
He then pushed the contract towards Lu Jingxiao: "Sign it. I don't know how to make it up to Miss Luo, this is the compensation I can offer."
"Then I'll accept it."
Lu Jingxiao signed the document and didn't say anything more.
After closing the contract, Lu Jingxiao continued, "Things here are almost settled, and I need to prepare to go back."
He simply couldn't stay here any longer.
No sooner had he spoken than Gu Yulin and Gu Beixiao entered.
Who doesn't want to go back? They do too, but things aren't completely over yet.
Gu Yulin had a headache: "Stay for two more days, finish everything up, and then we'll go back together."
He was also worried about his sister and wanted to go back to be with her.
But if Lu Jingxiao leaves, their return time will have to be postponed.
“But I…” Lu Jingxiao refused: “No, I have to go back tonight.”
"Let's hurry up and go back together, shall we?" Gu Yulin didn't seem to be thinking anything. He turned to Chris beside him and said, "It seems your old man has fainted. The test results weren't good. You and Lao San had better not run away."
Chris frowned slightly: "How come I didn't know?"
"When I first came in, I ran into one of your men."
Chris stood up, still unable to contain his worry: "I'll go back and see what's going on."
At the very least, we can't let something happen to the old man first. He's not afraid of being gossiped about behind his back, but he's afraid of implicating Lu Jingxiao and Bai Yuxin...
Lu Jingxiao was even more annoyed. Why did the old man have to get into trouble at this time?
So annoying.
