Ouyang Wenjin saw that his daughter had not suffered any loss and that if she continued talking, things would become awkward early on, so he stepped forward and prepared to smooth things over.
Now that everyone has arrived, it is not yet time for dinner, and Ouyang Wenjin has no desire to chat with them, so he simply asks the housekeepers to come to four or five mahjong tables.
"It's too early to eat now, let's just play cards and kill time!"
The elders sat at two tables, and since there was one extra person, they had to sit at one table with the young people. Except for the few underage ones, everyone sat at the mahjong table.
Let the younger ones play as they please.
Xia Fanxing found it quite boring and since there were enough people, she did not join in. Instead, she sat next to Huo Simon, peeling an apple, an orange, and a grape, focusing on feeding him.
Huo Sinan also accepted everyone who came to him. When he was free from playing cards, he would peel grapes or oranges for Xia Fanxing, and the two of them would feed each other.
The dog food was scattered all over the floor.
Even so, it didn't affect anything, and Huo Simon still won a Grand Slam.
The time spent playing cards passed quickly. The cousins sitting at the same table with Huo Simon felt that they didn't need to have any family dinners soon as they were already full of dog food.
What should I do if I look at the wives over there who are just busy playing cards and suddenly feel a little disgusted?
They played mahjong for more than an hour before the housekeeper came to inform Ouyang Wenjin that he could go to the restaurant for dinner.
Only when they reached the dinner table did Ouyang Wenjin officially get to the point.
"Fanxing is still young and inexperienced. I plan to let her go to work in the company tomorrow to gain some experience so that she can take over my job."
"Everyone here, if you have any opinions, please raise them now. If I find out that anyone in the company is causing trouble for Fanxing, don't blame me for turning my back on them. No matter whose family it is, as long as I find out, your entire family will be kicked out of the company. However, you will still receive your annual bonuses as usual, that's all."
Everyone had different thoughts. They all knew that today's family dinner was not that delicious, but no one expected Ouyang Wenjin to be so tough.
The eldest wife, who loves to stir up trouble the most, becomes a coward in front of Ouyang Wenjin.
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Ke, the big boss of the second house, would be the first to speak out.
This man looked a bit eerie, like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark. If you weren't careful, you might be bitten by him, and that bite could be life-threatening.
Xia Fanxing and Huo Sinan both became alert and glanced at each other secretly.
Ouyang Ke picked up his glass, swirled the wine in it, and then said, "Fifth Brother, isn't this a bit too arbitrary? Even if we don't object, the shareholders in the company will still have objections."
"The position of Patriarch of our Ouyang family has always been held by those with ability, and there has never been a woman who has held the position. We should all step down now, but the younger generations are all capable. You should let them compete fairly, just like we did in the past, and only those with ability will take the position."
Ouyang Wenjin didn't say anything, but laughed instead.
"Hahaha, hahaha~"
He looked at everyone with a sarcastic expression and asked, "Do you all think so?"
When Ouyang Wenjin's gaze passed over them, they all lowered their heads and remained silent, indicating their agreement.
Ouyang Wenjin sneered again.
How can there be fairness in the world where the winner is king and the loser is a bandit? It seems that my soft-heartedness has fostered your ambitions.
I should be like my father. Now that I have sat on the throne, I should exile you. The moment you are defeated, both you and your children will lose the qualifications to be the head of the family.
Let’s make the decision today that should have been made more than 10 years ago!
Except for Ouyang Wenjin, Xia Fanxing, Huo Sinan, and the children, the rest of the people present, regardless of gender, age or status, all had pale faces.
Ouyang Ke, who had stood up out of anger, fell back down.
Ouyang Feiyu slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily, "Ouyang Wenjin..."
Ouyang Wenjin looked at him slowly, "Third brother, what do you want to say?"
