Chapter 102
Ordinary people cannot participate in the struggles among the upper class. They can only watch the jokes on Xingbo and be happy spectators.
Annan was taken away for investigation, but due to the influence of the An family, the trial was delayed. As for Anbo's case of forcing his classmates, there was no further evidence, so the case had to be dropped.
Among Anbo's four children, only the eldest daughter Anxi has not been exposed to various negative news. She has also become a candidate for the next head of the family. She has quietly become the winner.
This girl who had no existence also entered the public eye. Anbo's four children were named after East, West, South and North respectively. His eldest son was born to his first wife, his eldest daughter was born to his second wife, and his third and fourth sons were born to his current wife. Annan is the most talented child and also Anbo's favorite son.
Now that two of his sons are dead and his last son is in detention and about to be sentenced, the An family will not choose a tainted person as the next head of the family unless there is no other way.
Therefore, An Xi, the only one who was intact, became the target of public criticism. Netizens and aristocratic families investigated An Xi's life conditions since childhood. The results showed that she was a good student with excellent character and academic performance, which disappointed the public.
When An Xi appeared in public, everyone was reminded of a line from a poem: Emerging from the mud without being stained, washing in the clear water without being coquettish.
An Xi actually hates her own name very much. An Xi and An Xi have the same pronunciation, which sounds really ugly, as if it is cursing her to death.
An Xi hated her father since she was a child. Her father was not particularly bad to her, but he was not very good to her either. When the two of them were together, they looked like guests, being polite to each other and not neglecting each other. But it was because of this name that made her hate her father very much.
When she was young, she thought her father was like this to everyone. However, when she saw how much he loved the brothers Annan and Anbei, and learned that Annan was one day older than her and she had to call him Anxi, on that day, this dislike turned into hatred.
Why am I the one who is always ignored among all my father's children?
Why has she been ridiculed by everyone because of this name since she was a child?
When she begged her father to change her name, she got the reply "be obedient", which made her even more disappointed in her father.
Every time she watched her father from the window, teaching her elder brother how to fight, and when she wanted to learn, she would say to her earnestly:
"As a girl, you shouldn't always think about fighting. Go build relationships with young people from other families. When you graduate, you can get married and contribute to your family."
It was at this time that she understood why she was always ignored. Because she was a girl, all she had to do was marry obediently and bring benefits to the family. And because in Anbo's eyes, a married daughter was like spilled water, so he was stingy and refused to show any affection.
She wanted to laugh when she talked about it. In this interstellar world, there are still people who favor boys over girls!
She was a invisible person in this family. Her brothers never treated her as a family member and always glared at her, beating and scolding her.
An Xi sneered and looked out the window. She had no feelings for her family at all. She didn't want to be the head of the family at all. Instead, she was very interested in watching the family fall.
Regarding the matter of Annan forcing the bosses of several small companies to death, part of the evidence was released by her. It was this part of the evidence that directly convicted Annan. I'm afraid my father didn't expect that she was involved in this.
The death of several sons was extremely painful for Anbo and also crossed his bottom line, but this incident was caused by his youngest son's jealousy over a woman.
The elders wanted him to stop fighting with the Tang family. So far, the fight between the An family and the Tang family has not touched their bottom line. It is just a small fight. However, the situation has developed too quickly. In addition, their An family has gained one more member of Congress, and many families are privately disliking them.
So the elders meant to let Anbo be just enough.
The An family also held another meeting on this matter, and all family members except the eldest elder were present.
With the First Elder no longer in charge, the Second Elder took over. He looked at everyone and said:
"Anbo has behaved badly and has repeatedly ignored advice. He is now dismissed from his position as head of the family."
In these families of the Galactic Empire, it is a very normal phenomenon that the power of the elders is far greater than that of the head of the family. The head of the family is only used to handle family affairs and guide the direction of family development.
The elders, on the other hand, concentrate on cultivation and solve problems for the family when necessary. They are the strongest in the entire family. If anyone dares to disobey them, they will definitely be beaten up.
An Bo could only nod in agreement with the Second Elder's words, because he couldn't beat the elders present.
Seeing that he didn't resist, the Second Elder continued, "The next head of the family will be An Bo's daughter, An Xi. What do you think, An Xi?"
At this time, the An family was in a turbulent period and was being stared at by other families, who were just waiting to tear off a piece of meat. Therefore, serving as the next head of the family was definitely not a good thing, so An Xi declined.
"I'm sorry, great-grandfather Xier, when he was in school, he studied music and never learned management. I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified for the position of head of the family."
The second elder said with some regret: "Well, in that case, I will take over the position of Patriarch temporarily, and I will take over after Feng'er returns."
An Feng is An Bo's third brother. He often does business in various countries and is also a strong rival of An Bo.
If his daughter were to become the next head of the family, he could have reaped a lot of benefits from it, but she refused.
So after the meeting, An Bo looked at An Xi with a look of disappointment and said, "You only know how long love lasts."
"Isn't this what my father has expected of me since I was a child?" An Xi said lightly.
An Bo snorted and left. An Xi sneered at him from behind and said silently:
"Rest in peace, Dad."
The next morning, the An family's robot found An Bo dead. No one knew who killed him, and no one knew when the murderer entered the An family.
Because of the pressure from the An family, the police sent a lot of people to investigate and found that it was someone sent by the Tang family who killed An Bo. As for how the other party avoided the An family's security system, they did not find out.
The onlookers were shocked when they saw the news. The head of the An family was actually killed, although they didn't know that An Bo had become the former head of the family just last night.
Anbo's death was a provocation to the An family. The battle between the An family and the Tang family was completely launched. Every day, the hot searches on Xingbo were about the bankruptcy of the An family's xx Group, the looting of the Tang family's resources, the dismissal of the An family's diplomats, the suspension of Major General Tang, and so on.
The families of the other five congressmen also secretly took down the partners they had previously cooperated with. In short, the An and Tang families suffered heavy losses during this period.
As long as someone from their family served as a member of Congress, they would not be able to completely kill them, so the Tang family launched a suicide attack on one of the members of Congress from the An family, and ultimately paid a considerable price and died together with the other party.
At this point, the number of members of parliament from the An and Tang families was equal. Because a member of parliament had died, the empire had to hold another parliamentary election meeting. People from both families communicated privately with people from other families, hoping that other members of their own family would fill this position.
How could the other families do this? Now that the An and Tang families are severely weakened, it is a good time for them to make further progress.
Because this parliamentary election conference was very important to their two families, the two families spontaneously ceased fighting.
When the Great Elder An Wei entered the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, Lin Luo discovered him. Thinking of what happened on Rose Star before, he felt that the other party had ill intentions, so he trapped him in the Dragon Palace.
The other party didn't seem to have any intention of coming out, which made Lin Luo breathe a sigh of relief. The last time he was attacked by Qin Xia and had no chance to fight back was still vivid in his mind. It was unrealistic for him to reach their level in the short term.
After Lin Luo came out of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, he returned to his yard and found that the entire yard was spotless. There was steaming hot tea and various pastries in the room.
Lin Luo couldn't help but smile and thought: Do these players want to be the Snail Girl?
An Wei could not figure out the mystery of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, as if a layer of fog blocked his eyes. He was much more interested in this place than Lin Luo, but his inability to figure it out made him extremely irritated, and he wanted to catch Lin Luo and dissect him to see what was different about him.
The Dragon Palace in the East China Sea is just an illusion mirror. It didn't take much effort for An Wei to get out of here. Lin Luo also felt it the moment he came out.
When An Wei arrived, the Wisdom Maze put him inside. Lin Luo looked at himself and saw that he had destroyed another house. He sighed in his heart:
This is not going to be a good thing.
In addition, he was not sure whether Anwei would violate the rules of the maze and be punished and become a fool.
Or if he successfully breaks through and comes to me, what should I do then?
Lin Luo made preparations for two possible situations.
The situation was developing in the direction that Lin Luo least wanted to see. An Wei came out of the Wisdom Maze after going through untold hardships. His injuries looked very serious, but he could still easily deal with Lin Luo, who was only level 5.
An Wei looked at Lin Luo coldly and stretched out his hand to grab him. At this time, Lin Luo's strength had improved a lot compared to the duel with Qin Xia, so An Wei did not grab him immediately.
Lin Luo also jumped onto the nearby street. Because he had already known the news of the war in advance, all the nearby tourists were evacuated and the place was also filled with players.
In order to prevent his city from being destroyed in the battle, Lin Luo flew into the wilderness in a flying vehicle, ready to have a big battle with An Wei.
The players followed behind and muttered:
"What a great opportunity! This is the time to show off. This is how I can increase your favorability."
"Brothers, charge! For the Star Lord! For the favorability! Charge at him!"
"Let them see how powerful we, the Fourth Calamity, are!"
"The Fourth Calamity, omnipotent and fearless!"
An Wei looked at them with disdain and said, "A bunch of ants."
