Chapter 20 Chapter 20 I am Mr. Si’s most loyal servant…
Although Si's company was originally a private enterprise, due to the particularity of its industry, it was half-owned by the state as early as four or five years ago. In a sense, it can be considered a state-owned enterprise.
It is also because of this that, despite the generally sluggish real economy in recent years, the Si family has been able to remain at the top of the Beijing rich list without any impact. But it is also because of this relationship that the personal character and quality requirements of the Si family are more stringent than those of some ordinary private enterprise bosses.
"It's just a meal. It won't affect the company." Si Yiran said unhappily.
But Shao Jiayan turned around and looked outside the hot pot restaurant.
The owner of the hot pot restaurant, who had received a huge amount of rent from Si Yiran, had already turned away ordinary customers. Although the excuse was that there were problems with the restaurant's equipment, and every customer who was not able to eat was given a large coupon, if the real reason was exposed, it would inevitably cause a bloody storm of discussion among the rich and the poor.
As a pure poor person, Shao Jiayan probably has a say in his attitude towards this kind of behavior.
It is rare to have a good meal with the most important person on my free day before the New Year. If I am forced to disrupt my plan because a rich kid has reserved the whole place, even if he gives me a lot of compensation, I may express my gratitude, but I will never feel comfortable in my heart.
Even some people with poor mental quality may develop a hatred of the rich.
The privileged class will always exist, but it will never be brought to the surface.
But Si Yiran's skillful behavior of booking the entire theater, coupled with his reputation as the "Prince of the Beijing Circle", actually undermines social harmony.
When I read novels before, Shao Jiayan liked this kind of high-end title.
But the prince of Beijing circle can be found in novels, comics or any two-dimensional world, but it can never be around you and me in the real world.
At this moment, when Shao Jiayan looked at Si Yiran again, all the thoughts of getting close to him because he was the main character had completely disappeared.
"Take care of yourself." Si Yizi nodded, turned and left.
Shao Jiayan followed behind him and walked away happily.
Except for the naive Young Master Wen who was still confused and had no idea what was going on, the other three all had their own thoughts.
In fact, Shao Jiayan didn’t even feel full after this meal.
However, after meeting Si Yiran and the others, he no longer had the appetite to continue eating.
On the way back to the Si family's old house, both of them were quite silent.
Si Yizhi is actually used to it. He doesn't speak because he is just feeling the inner thoughts of Assistant Niu Ma... Lively and cute~
[Novels are very harmful to people. The Qing Dynasty has been destroyed for many years. As the successor of the new era, how can I work under the command of the feudal remnants! ]
[Unfortunately, my student loan has not been repaid yet. If I were not in debt, I would have to take the initiative to help Mr. Si get justice! ]
[What a scumbag father, vicious stepmother, feudal remnant brother, they are all bullying my boss! ]
"I'm afraid I'll have to delay your New Year's celebration in Beijing this year." As soon as the car stopped in the Si family's garage, Shao Jiayan heard Mr. Si's low, pleasant, bubbling voice say something that made him very happy, "To make up for it, I'll give you a year-end bonus."
Si Yizhi lowered his head and operated his phone for a while. "I'll be at Si's house these few days. I'd like to trouble you to keep an eye on me."
Shao Jiayan felt a little nervous when he heard the boss speak so politely. He felt that what Mr. Si said was a bit against Tian Gang.
But after seeing the ten-digit number of the Alipay transfer, the only words left in Shao Jiayan’s mind were “WTF?”
"Don't worry, Mr. Si, I will work hard!"
[Which capitalist would give his assistant a year-end bonus of NT$100,000? Oh~ It turns out it’s my capitalist! ]
[With this 100,000, I can pay off my student loan in one go, and I won’t have to worry about rent for the next six months! Then I don’t have to be afraid of anything! The next time Si Yiran dares to offend my boss again, I will defend Mr. Si’s legal rights! ]
The assistant, who had been full of worries before and was quite reserved in front of Si Yiran, became as excited as a cow or a horse out of a cage after receiving the red envelope.
Si Yizhi pursed his lips, suppressed his smile, and said reservedly, "Yes. My grandfather's legal team will come to read the will in a while. Before that, my father and grandmother will probably make trouble for me. You have to follow me throughout the whole process, understand?"
"No problem, Mr. Si!" Assistant Niu Ma rubbed his hands eagerly.
[The red envelope is in place, I am your most loyal servant, Mr. Si! ]
Shao Jiayan was chattering excitedly in his heart while happily following Mr. Si into the house.
At this time, an older maid was already waiting at the door. When she saw Si Yizhi coming back, she immediately went to greet him.
"Master, the old lady asks you to come over immediately."
The maid's surname was Wang, and she had been serving the Si family since the old lady first got married. When Si Yizhi was a child, she often helped the old lady take care of him, and Si Yizhi used to call her Aunt Wang.
Because Mr. Si was seriously ill, Mrs. Si was too worried and fell ill for several days. Si Yizhi only saw her briefly at dinner last night.
As a child who grew up freely under the old lady's care, Si Yizhi has a very bad relationship with the old lady, and now he treats Aunt Wang like a stranger.
"How is the old lady's health?" Back in the house, Si Yizhi slowly took off his heavy coat and handed it to the assistant beside him.
The maid looked disappointed. "Since the old man was critically ill, the old lady's health has not been very good. A few days ago, the old lady kept talking about you, but you blocked her when she called you. The old lady was sad for a long time..."
Seeing the young master's indifferent look, Aunt Wang wanted to persuade him a little more. But when she thought of the dirty things that happened in the Si family and the young master whom she hadn't seen for nearly ten years, she couldn't say any words of persuasion.
"The old lady is your grandmother after all, you should go and see her."
Si Yizhi said "hmm" without comment, but turned to look at Shao Jiayan.
The look in her eyes meant that she wanted him to go with her.
[In the original text, didn't Mrs. Si pass away not long after the old man passed away? I remember that she was the one who brought up Mr. Si, so why does it seem that Mr. Si and her don't have a good relationship? ]
[This maid's attitude seems strange... It seems that these are family secrets that were not written in the original text. ]
The old lady's room is next to her husband's room.
Because her heart was not very good, Si Rong arranged her parents' rooms together to make it easier for the family doctor to treat her.
When Shao Jiayan followed Mr. Si to the old lady's room, she was wearing a dark red velvet cheongsam. Even with her delicate and heavy makeup, her face still looked sick.
"Yizhi is back." A closer look revealed that the old lady was indeed in poor health. She was so thin that she looked unrecognizable. She felt like she might fall down at any moment while sitting there.
Shao Jiayan followed Mr. Si silently, and after he sat down, he stood respectfully behind him, acting like a professional assistant.
After politely declining Aunt Wang's offer to pour him some tea, Si Yizhi said directly, "No need to waste time talking nonsense. You want to see me alone, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Old Madam Si almost glared at her rude grandson, and finally she let out a breath and said sullenly, "You're still blaming me? So many years have passed, and you still resent your biological father and grandmother?! Si Yizhi, we are your blood relatives! How can you be so heartless!"
[Fuck! Here it comes, is this the secret of a wealthy family that a little pony like me is supposed to hear? ]
Shao Jiayan thought so in his heart, but he couldn't help but prick up his ears, afraid of mishearing any words.
Si Yizhi looked at her with a cold smile, "Yes, I am your blood relative. I also want to ask, why can you be so cruel and hurt me like this?"
Facing the old lady's surprised and slightly uneasy face, Si Yizhi asked again, "Grandma, I really want to ask you. Who is more ruthless in teaching his own grandson to poison his daughter-in-law?"
"Shut up!" The old lady could no longer bear it. She scolded her eldest grandson for his rebellious remarks. "That happened more than 20 years ago. Why are you still talking about it?! Besides, your biological mother has already called the police, and the police have also reached a conclusion!"
"Yes, the police did close the case. My father's mistress, the secretary, took the blame for you and went to jail for five years." Si Yizhi sneered, "But why do you think this matter can be let go? My mother still refuses to forgive me for poisoning me. I have no mother since I can remember!"
Old Madam Si said with a stern face, "You are just unlucky. What mother can be as cruel as your own mother, who insisted on getting a divorce without even giving up her child? She also took most of Si Rong's property!"
"I think my mother did the right thing. Leaving the Si family, a den of tigers and wolves, and staying away from you lawless, self-righteous wealthy people in Beijing is the best choice she has ever made in her life." The man's cold gaze fell on the old lady, but even so, the stubborn and arrogant old lady still sat upright, not feeling the slightest bit of guilt for her grandson's words.
She had been high and mighty all her life, and now that she was dying, it was impossible for her to bow her head.
"Anyway, I called you here today to advise you. The power of Si Corporation cannot fall into the hands of others. Even if your grandfather wants to give you half of the shares, you cannot take it." The old lady finally turned her head away and spoke for her son, "Even if your father and I are sorry for you, we really cannot give you the shares of Si Corporation."
"Since you can't convince grandpa, are you going to start with me?" Si Yizhi sneered, "Unfortunately, I am no longer the three-year-old child you can manipulate at will. This time, and in the future, I will not listen to you."
The explosive amount of information in the short conversation between the two made Shao Jiayan stand straight, tapping his toes with excitement.
[Oh my god! So that’s how it is! ]
[Sima novels are very harmful! I was saying that apart from his constant Sima face and his ferocious and strict work, Mr. Si is perfect in other aspects. How could he become a vicious villain who is born with evil intentions?! ]
[It turns out that it was you, an old woman, who created his vicious character of poisoning his mother when he was three years old! Mr. Si was actually raised by such a person. My God, no wonder he was exiled to Germany when he just came of age. Pity him! ]
