Madam Qin and Old Master Qin exchanged a glance, their intention being to seize power from Qin Feng and have Xiao Lu manage the company.
“Xiao Man, this matter… it doesn’t matter who manages it, Xiao Lu or your older brother and son; in the end, Xiao Lu will have to take over.”
What's going on with this youngest daughter coming back this time? She just got her second son into divorce proceedings.
Now, isn't this another attempt to instigate the eldest son and his father to seize power? The family is bound to descend into chaos.
Seeing the expressions on the two elders' faces, Qin Man sighed helplessly.
"Dad, Mom, I know you'll find it hard to accept my suggestion."
However, she didn't want things to escalate, or for them to get angry if they found out.
Especially now that the old man is in poor health, the consequences of him getting angry again would be unimaginable.
Therefore, she discussed this matter with them first, and then considered Xiao Lu's opinion.
"Xiaoman, your elder brother is already divorced. Do you want them to fall out again?" Madam Qin's face darkened, clearly indicating her anger.
She always thought that this daughter was the most sensible.
But now, having just instigated the second brother to divorce, they're now instigating the eldest brother and his son to fight for power.
If she didn't know that she didn't care about the family's small fortune, she would have really wondered if she was trying to reap the benefits.
"Tell me your considerations." Although Old Master Qin was also surprised, his reaction was not as strong.
Qin Man poured tea for the two elders and said earnestly.
"You all know my brother's temperament. Since breaking with the Fu family, his investment acumen has really been... losing money on every project he invests in."
"Moreover, he still thinks about turning things around and competing with the Fu family again. The Qin family can't afford another major blow."
“Xiao Lu has realized his mistake back then, and he has become familiar with various tasks at the company in recent years. It is the best choice for the company and the Qin family to have him take over.”
...
“But your eldest and second eldest brothers are still alive. There’s no reason to hand over the company to a junior like Xiao Lu. How can you expect them, as your father and uncles, to save face?” Madam Qin said, looking troubled.
If Xiao Lu were to manage the company, her father and second uncle would have to listen to her, a junior.
Qin Man's reaction to them was exactly what she expected.
Unlike her, the parents were more rational in their approach to things. They were all their children and grandchildren, and naturally, they hoped to see the family in harmony.
In particular, such power struggles between fathers and sons are considered a major taboo in their eyes.
"I'm only considering things from the perspective of my family and the company. If my older brother insists on competing with the Fu family, he'll inevitably suffer a great loss."
"The Fu family did try to undermine the Qin family business before, but they didn't completely wipe them out. Do you think the Fu family will let it go next time?"
...
Having already learned her lesson once, she hopes to avoid such a thing from happening again.
“We will try to persuade your elder brother again to avoid escalating the situation to a power struggle between father and son. This family is already chaotic enough,” Madam Qin said.
From the perspective of family interests, Xiaoman's suggestion is beneficial.
But how could she, as a mother, bear to see her son turn against her?
Judging from the expressions on the two elders' faces, Qin Man knew that she couldn't persuade them today.
“If he could be persuaded, he wouldn’t have acted so impulsively back then. It’s been years and he still hasn’t given up on the idea.”
"Having ambition in business is a good thing, but if your ability can't keep up with your ambition, it will harm both yourself and others."
...
She knew a fair bit about her older brother's abilities after all these years of siblings.
Anyway, he can't outmaneuver Fu Hanzheng.
Fu Hanzheng has devoted himself to his family these past few years and is not as ambitious about expanding his business as before. But if his brother and his friends really mess with him, even ten of them wouldn't be enough for Fu Hanzheng to handle.
