Ita then remembered something important.
"The old man's birthday is coming up soon, bro, what gift are you planning to give him?"
Everyone knows that the old man values rituals and is concerned about his image.
On his 60th birthday, he will undoubtedly host a banquet for all the prominent figures.
Besides, the old man once said that after he turned sixty, he would no longer manage the company's affairs and would hand them over to the younger generation.
The core meaning of this statement is to select a legitimate successor to become the head of the conglomerate.
As far as Yitai knew, the eldest and second eldest sons had been scouring the world for the best things, hoping to win first place at the birthday banquet and please the old man.
If he hadn't mentioned it, Yi Mu would have completely forgotten about it.
The old man's sixtieth birthday is a significant turning point in the story of this world.
The old man's most favored successor was indeed the original owner of this body.
Just as the announcement was about to be made, a video suddenly played on the screen.
In the video, Yi Mu scoffs at the position of the heir of the Yi family and shows that the old man Yi is extremely resentful.
He lost control of his emotions and smashed the painting of Old Master Yi on the wall with a vase. The painting fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
The appearance of this video at the old man's 60th birthday celebration was undoubtedly a slap in the face for him.
The original owner clearly guessed how the video was secretly filmed in such a sordid way.
But faced with the old man's fury, the original owner kept a blank face and didn't explain anything. He was thoroughly fed up with him.
The brothers' relationship was fraught with deceit and treachery; they were ostracized from childhood; their mother died young; and their father was completely indifferent to his sons.
This father only knows how to bring women home; the older ones are about the same age as his sons, and the younger ones are old enough to be the eldest son's daughters.
Such a disrespectful old man, and there are women who love him to death.
The original owner's mother was so in love with her husband that she was so happy that she found out he was having affairs, and not just one.
On his way to confront the mistress, he was accidentally pushed down the stairs and died.
Whether it was unintentional or intentional, only the mistress and the original owner's deceased mother knew.
This incident probably spurred the old man on, and he secretly dealt with the mistress, becoming more restrained afterward.
None of Yi's sons didn't hate their grandfather.
Some people choose to bury their hatred deep inside, wanting wealth and glory, so they fawn over the old man.
The original owner didn't think so. He was talented and could put his talents to good use no matter where he was.
That video was actually edited; the other main character was off-camera.
The other protagonist is the eldest son of the Yi family who released the video. He found the original owner on the anniversary of his mother's death and deliberately provoked him while the original owner was depressed and drunk.
The original owner was a very self-controlled person, whose only weakness was his mother.
Intentionally provoked by his boss, and under the influence of alcohol, he lost control and unleashed all his emotions in that brief moment.
The boss's men secretly recorded the incident, intending to deliver a heavy blow to the original owner at the birthday banquet.
The old man valued his reputation highly, and the original owner slapped him hard in front of so many people.
Even if he favored his third son, he would never give him the position of heir.
Ironically, the conglomerate was not ultimately acquired by the eldest son, but rather ended up in the hands of the youngest son.
The biggest winner was actually Itai, who was mischievous all day long and was known as a parasite by his family.
