Chapter 624 If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight.
Atlanta.
After hanging up the phone, Old Master Yin saw the bodyguard rushing over and sighed slightly, "She still came?"
"She's very angry and has brought a lot of people." The bodyguard hesitated for a moment. "Should you go into hiding? Madam looks like she's going to tear the house down."
Old Master Yin shook his head. "It's been so many years, it's time for us to settle things."
Just as the bodyguard was pushing the wheelchair out, the door was blown open by a gunshot.
Mrs. Ferro appeared at the door with her entourage, looking very aggressive. Seeing that Old Master Yin looked calm and composed, she became even angrier.
"You seem quite relaxed, but you're happy to see me being held back from both sides?"
"You all go outside first. I have something to discuss with Madam alone." Old Master Yin waved his hand, and the bodyguards forcibly shooed them away.
The people brought by Mrs. Ferro were not easily subdued and were ready to fight at the slightest provocation.
Old Master Yin's expression turned slightly cold. "You came here today just to fight and resort to violence? This doesn't seem like the head of the Ferro family I know!"
Mrs. Ferro's face darkened, and she waved for her bodyguards to stand guard outside.
For a moment, the courtyard was empty, with only the two men's unyielding gazes meeting and vying in the air... just like their lifelong love-hate relationship.
"Why are you helping the eldest son?" Madam Ferro walked over and looked coldly at the old man. "You know how fiercely we fought over the division of power in the family back then. His branch has been restless all these years. I've put in so much effort to maintain harmony within the family, and yet you're helping two outsiders, Li Tingxi and Su Youling, to deal with me!"
“Hey, you surnamed Yin, I don’t care if you don’t care about me, but my child is also your bloodline. The heir of the Ferro family can only be my child. By helping the eldest brother, you’re going against your own child!”
She gripped both ends of the wheelchair, forcefully controlling Old Master Yin within her aura. "If I had known you would be so domineering, having lived a glorious life for most of your life only to be afraid of a mere junior's threat at the end, I shouldn't have married you and chosen you as my partner."
Old Master Yin frowned. He was also used to the life of the elite and the power dynamics, and he absolutely refused to be outdone by Madam Ferro.
In the past, he would have definitely clashed with Madame Ferro and tried to outdo her.
Having experienced so much, his mindset was no longer as sharp as it once was; he only hoped to live a more peaceful life in his final days.
“Angelina, we’ve been married for over twenty years, and we can say we know each other better than anyone else. I know you’re not satisfied, and I know your ambitions will never be bound by age, but the new era should belong to the young. No matter how powerful the Ferro family is, there will be a time when they reach their peak and then decline.”
"There is no invincible kingdom in this world, and the business game is no exception. Although Li Tingxi is young, his cunning and methods are no less than yours or mine back then. More importantly, he is willing to gamble everything for his family and risk everything. He is not just a simple profit-driven businessman..."
“That’s where he’s bound to fail. If you want to wear the crown, you have to bear the weight. He has weaknesses everywhere, how can he fight me?” Mrs. Ferro interrupted him coldly. “I know that Old Master Li is in your hands. Hand him over to me, and I will help him take back the Li family business. No matter how powerful Li Tingxi is, as long as he has his woman or child under his control, that kid is destined to lose everything.”
"You're crazy!"

"What?!" Old Master Yin hadn't expected her to be so blinded by rage, losing even the most basic rationality. "Old Master Li and Li Qidong are the real masterminds behind Shen Xiyue. The person who kidnapped Rebecca is Li Qidong, who has been hiding for many years. How could you put the cart before the horse and help them deal with Li Tingxi?"
Mrs. Ferro said, "Why not? Li Qidong and his son are now in Li Tingxi's hands. They are nothing but fangless stray dogs and are not qualified to be my opponents! But they can be of lasting use to me."
"Now that things have come to this, what I want to defeat most are Li Tingxi and Su Youling, to bring the Fei Luo family back to its former stability and prosperity, and to show those people that even when legends grow old, they are still immortal and inviolable."
"Besides, in a world of interests, there are no eternal enemies, let alone 100% friends. That was the first lesson you taught me. How come you've become so naive as you've gotten older?"
Old Master Yin was speechless for a moment.
Theoretically speaking, she is right.
However, the meaning of a person's life cannot be explained by cold theories.
Angela was furious.
Grandpa Yin tried to persuade her, "Rebecca has already run away from home to show her determination. Su Youling is her friend. If you insist on going against her friend and help her kidnapper make a comeback, aren't you forcing her to sever her mother-daughter relationship with you?"
Mrs. Ferro interrupted him coldly, "That's because she's stupid. She never saw through Su Youling's true colors. She was sold out and still helped the seller count the money. If it weren't for me, she would have..."
“If it weren’t for Su Yatou and Li Tingxi, she would have been tortured to death by Li Qidong’s men long ago.” Old Master Yin said seriously, “That Carlos is in my hands. If you can change your mind now, I can hand him over to you. As long as you stop causing trouble and provoking those young people and let Rebecca live the life she wants, I can also use the full power of the Yin Group to help you consolidate your influence in the Ferro family.”
“Angelina, you don’t need to take a few young people too seriously and push yourself to the brink. The wisest businessperson knows how to make the right choice at the right time. It’s not too late for you to back down now.”
"Enough with the nonsense! What are you pretending to say? If I weren't dealing with your old lover's daughter, would you still be lecturing me like this?" Mrs. Ferro slammed her wheelchair down, completely breaking off all pretense of civility. "Shen Xiyue and Old Master Li, I'm taking both of them! If you don't hand them over today, don't blame me for skinning you alive."
She roared, and the bodyguards rushed in, their faces full of menacing intent.
"You're insane, you're really insane..." Old Master Yin wearily closed his eyes. "The person is in my hands. Whether you find them or not depends on your own abilities. In five minutes, the mercenary group will surround this place. If you don't retreat with your men, I don't mind being taken hostage by you..."
Mrs. Ferro: "You—"
Old Master Yin calmly said, "Don't misunderstand. I have already given my men the order—shoot anyone who takes me hostage, and don't worry about whether I live or die. Anyway, I'm not going to live much longer. If I can have a spectacular experience before I die, it will be an unforgettable one."
"You're the madman! You old madman!" Mrs. Ferro knew he meant what he said, and that's why her face turned even uglier. Even with a gun pointed at Old Master Yin, the old man remained unfazed, not even twitching his eyebrows.
