Chapter 94
In the past few days, Mr. Xia has witnessed the extraordinary talents displayed by Lin Cai.
Given that his son had complete faith in Lin Cai, Mr. Xia thought to himself that it might be a wise move to hand over the company to Lin Cai.
This way, I can feel more at ease.
"Jiye, stop scolding Lincai! I was the one who instructed him to bid for An An at this auction.
An An is Lin Er's own flesh and blood, and even more so my precious granddaughter! It is only natural that I am willing to spend money on her. After all, I have owed her something over the past twenty years."
Old Master Xia looked at Xia Jiye firmly and spoke slowly.
At this moment, Mr. Xia was just about to poke Xia Jiye's nose with his finger and scold him not to meddle in other people's business.
Because all the money belonged to him, he could spend it however he wanted, but he absolutely could not spend it on Xia Jiye.
Looking back over the past twenty years, Xia Jiye's family seemed to be living a well-off life.
Every month, Mr. Xia would allocate 500,000 yuan to them.
However, few people know that this money did not actually come entirely from Mr. Xia's account.
It was jointly funded by several other elderly people, and the total amount was as high as one million yuan per month.
The extra 500,000 was regarded as a kind of compensation to Mr. Xia himself.
Whenever he thought of this, Master Xia always looked disdainful. A mere 500,000 yuan in compensation? Humph, he didn't want that!
Thinking about the money they had transferred over the past year, if he hadn't been unwilling to give it even when they urged them, I guess they wouldn't have valued Xia Jiye and his mother as much as they did before.
Moreover, three of those old guys have passed away, and there are still two left. Those two are not that rich, and they didn't tell their families, otherwise they wouldn't have delayed paying them until the fifteenth day of every month, and they only gave them the money after he threatened them.
Master Xia glanced at the unwilling Xia Jiye and said, "Wait a little longer, wait a little longer. He will get back the debt for causing the death of his wife and the alienation from his son with interest. Xia Jiye and his mother will not have an easy life."
"Okay, Dad, I won't say anything, but I really don't mean to replace my eldest brother. The Xia family has always been the eldest brother, but I don't know when he will come back. It's natural for him to inherit the company, but now he actually handed the company to an adopted son. Is it really reliable?"
"After all, I am not from the Xia family, so it is inevitable that I have some worries in my heart. You also know that this Xia family is the result of your hard work over the years!" Xia Jiye gritted his teeth, suppressing the anger that was constantly surging in his heart. He stared at the old man Xia in front of him and said word by word.
However, Old Master Xia seemed to have heard nothing and continued to sit there expressionlessly, as if he was unmoved by Xia Jiye's words.
"It doesn't matter. Sooner or later, this family property will be handed over to Lin'er to manage. As for the final result, that is his personal choice." Old Master Xia responded lightly, with an unquestionable firmness in his tone.
Then, he slowly raised his head, looked at Xia Jiye calmly, and continued, "So, you don't have to worry about this at all. Even if the company really goes bankrupt, I'm sure you should have saved some of the 500,000 yuan you were given every month before that, right? You won't be starving."
Old Master Xia's words were like a sharp dagger, piercing straight into Xia Jiye's heart.
He opened his eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the old man in front of him who had once taken good care of him, his heart filled with resentment and unwillingness.
At this moment, he finally understood that no matter how hard he tried, in the eyes of Mr. Xia, he was always just an outsider.
What made him feel even more desperate was that even the seemingly generous monthly living allowance of 500,000 yuan, he heard from Uncle Lin that it was the money they pooled together. It was originally 1 million yuan, and the other 500,000 yuan was taken away by the old man Xia Wenxuan.
Thinking of this, Xia Jiye felt a surge of anger rising from the soles of his feet and instantly spread throughout his body.
He couldn't help but shudder, and his face became paler. Although he was full of resentment, facing the strong Mr. Xia, he knew that any more arguments would be in vain.
No matter how stupid Xia Jiye was, he had now fully understood that the Xia family's huge fortune was destined to be out of his reach, and he could not even think about getting the precious shares.
This means that all his efforts in playing the role of a so-called "good son" for the past twenty years now seem to have been in vain, and he ended up with nothing.
And that Xia Lin actually walked away so stubbornly, but why did he come back after he left? In Xia Jiye's heart, the most hateful and damnable person was none other than Xia Lin!
As long as Xia Lin is no longer in this world, then wouldn't the final Xia Group Enterprises belong to him?
For this reason, he once tried to seek help from Uncle Lin, hoping to completely get rid of Xia Lin.
However, what he never expected was that even a man as powerful as Uncle Lin could not find Xia Lin's whereabouts. In fact, Xia Jiye did not know the reason. In fact, it was not because Uncle Lin was incompetent, but because Uncle Lin did not dare to help him find Xia Lin.
After all, Xia Wenxuan had already said that if anything happened to his beloved son, he would make all the unspeakable secrets known to the public.
By then, these people's reputation and integrity will be ruined. Who dares to take the risk?
It has to be said that from the very beginning, the choice Xia Jiye made was completely wrong.
If he had been able to be a little more firm in his stance at that time and choose one of the five people to rely on, he would have been able to thrive by relying on the insidious, cunning and shady methods that he and his mother used to use.
After all, those five people all felt more or less guilty and ashamed towards him.
But he just had his eyes on the status of the Xia family. Knowing that the Xia family was rich, he insisted that he didn't want to trouble them. In the end, he went to trouble Xia Wenxuan, and finally caused the Xia Wenxuan's family to be broken up. Of course, this was indeed the means used by them mother and son to replace Madam Xia and Xia Lin.
Unexpectedly, Xia Wenxuan did not give them any chance at all, let alone let them enter the Xia family. When Xia Lin left, Xia Jiye even suspected that Old Man Xia did it on purpose, worried that Xia Lin would be killed by them.
Originally, Xia Jiye and his mother did think so. If they could create an accident to make Madam Xia leave, they could naturally find another opportunity to make Xia Lin get into trouble.
But I didn't expect Xia Lin to be away for more than 20 years. It would have been fine if he had never come back, but now he is back and has arranged his adopted son to work in the company to take his position.
