Tony: "...The Second Madam probably won't allow you to make a move on Miss."
Not only is it forbidden, but it could also result in the young master being skinned alive.
Ning Bingyu took out a cigar and said without much emotion, "When Grandma was dying, she put all her shares in Mom's hands. Even Uncle had to give Mom face, but... I'm afraid half of Mom's shares will go to her most beloved daughter."
Normally, half of the shares held by the old woman should be given to him to ensure his future inheritance rights and absolute control of the Ning family, and the remaining shares would be divided among the four brothers.
So if the old woman really wanted to, she could really skin him alive.
Tony was silent for a moment: "Young Master, Miss Ningning's return may dilute the Second Madam's shares, but it shouldn't affect your inheritance rights. The Second Madam isn't confused."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides, although Miss Ningning may not be able to play the role of the marriage alliance as you and the chairman expected, her connections in the mainland can help you and the Ning family, can't they?"
Although Mr. Rong was ruthless, he was considerate of Miss Ning Yuan and would not harm the young master.
Ning Bingyu lowered his head, and Tony lit his cigar with a lighter.
He said coldly, "Char Siu Girl didn't grow up in the Ning family, so she doesn't have any feelings for the Ning family. She only relies on her mother to take care of her."
He exhaled smoke: "Believe it or not, with her despicable character, if I were to do anything slightly bad to her, she'd be lucky to just run away with the money; she might even turn on me. Who do you think Rong Zhaonan would side with?"
Tony nodded thoughtfully, "Miss Ningning is indeed your sibling."
Ning Bingyu paused for a moment: "Tony, you're not getting your salary next month."
Tony smiled unmoved: "Young Master, you said that withholding the wages of those around you is the stupidest thing to do, especially withholding the wages of bodyguards. They're likely to get killed on the street."
Ning Bingyu paused, then suddenly couldn't help but burst into laughter, his shoulders shaking slightly as he laughed: "Hahahaha..."
Tony sighed softly, "Young Master, a smile will make you feel better. Miss Ningning has potential, no less than Miss Man'an. The Ning family may produce another heir."
Actually, the Ning family's original rival to the eldest son was not the chairman's illegitimate son, but Miss Man'an, the eldest daughter of the first wife.
Miss Man'an is two years older than Young Master Ning and has a great talent for business.
Unfortunately, she lost because she was a woman. In order to fight for the inheritance, she gave up her lover of five years and married the young master of the Xu Group, but she still failed to become the heir.
The worst part was that several years after her marriage, she had no children, and her in-laws were dissatisfied with her, allowing the young master of the Xu family to have a wild time with various female celebrities.
Unlike Young Master Ning, Young Master Xu is a spendthrift who lives off the family trust fund.
He wouldn't care about his wife's feelings at all, unlike Young Master Ning who would care about Cha Meiling's feelings.
Young Master Ning would absolutely not allow his mistress to dance in front of Cha Meiling, and since they were about to get married, he broke up with all his previous lovers.
But the young master of the Xu family dared to bring female celebrities into his home, allowing his mistress to flaunt her power in front of Miss Man'an.
Miss Man'an, unable to bear it any longer, divorced Ning Zhengkun despite his opposition.
However, the chairman ultimately allowed Ms. Man'an to continue managing Ning's global hotel chain as the eldest daughter of the family.
Miss Mann also manages the gaming industry hotels in Macau; she is an outstanding and ambitious woman.
Ning Bingyu leaned back lazily in the back seat, looking out the window: "You know how to make me happy, but what kind of company has two heirs and one heir? Before liberation, the only one called 'young master' was my eldest uncle."
The reason why my uncle gave my eldest sister Man'an so much power after she divorced and returned to the country was because of this.
Whether it's gossip or financial news, the outside world has given her the title of "Heiress of the Ning Family".
It was simply because the uncle wanted to use Sister Man'an to keep his powerful nephew in check.
This mentality is similar to how powerful old emperors in feudal times would often want to depose their crown princes.
The lion cubs have grown up, but the old lions still want to be king, so they are naturally wary of their successors.
Besides, he, the heir, is not even his uncle's biological son.
He exhaled a puff of smoke and said calmly, "If Ning Yuan cannot play the role of marriage alliance and stabilize the relationship between the two families as Uncle originally expected, then she will have to demonstrate other values."
Ning Bingyu chuckled lightly: "If she can replace Man'an, it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep the Jade Chili pepper with her."
Tony understood the significance of the Jade Chili Pepper to the Ning family, something Miss Mann didn't even possess.
The eldest son is, after all, from the second wife's family. It's better for him to cultivate his own younger sister than to cultivate his cousin, who is clearly already competing with him.
Tony thought for a moment: "You plan to promote Miss Ning Yuan to a higher position and have her take the lead in going up against Miss Man An. I'm afraid that won't be easy..."
One is a 37-year-old mature and powerful woman who has held power in the group for many years and has an outstanding business performance.
One of them was a female educated youth sent to the countryside, whom she picked up from a remote mountain village in the mainland. She was not yet 22 years old and had not even graduated from university...
Even setting aside the shareholders' distrust, who in the company would trust them?
Ning Bingyu narrowed his eyes and took a puff of his cigar: "Heh... Just because Uncle values cooperation with the mainland so much, and Char Siu Girl has an advantage here that my eldest cousin definitely doesn't have, she might not be unable to compete."
He closed his gloomy eyes in frustration: "If it weren't for Cha Shenlou, I wouldn't be in such a passive position. The board of directors impeached me for making a major mistake in the cooperation project in the mainland, which caused significant losses to the group. Ning Man'an was definitely one of the people behind it."
Tony's cold face flashed with a murderous glint: "Cha Shenlou is in our hands, but we have to send him and his henchmen to the mainland for trial. Otherwise, we'll let Uncle Qiang deal with him as usual and test the gangster methods of the Hung Hing Society."
Sending them to the mainland for trial is an explanation to the mainland guests.
Ning Bingyu slowly exhaled smoke, the white cigar smoke obscuring his cold, inscrutable eyes—
"He values his eldest son, Cha Xinzu, so... let the son pay for the father's sins. Remember to let Cha Shenlou witness it."
The air was filled with the cold, burnt aroma of cigars, which inexplicably carried a hint of bloodiness.
Tony, however, seemed unfazed and simply replied calmly, "Yes, young master."
He paused for a moment, then said, "If the Second Madam protects Miss Meiling, it will be difficult for the people below to handle the situation."
Ning Bingyu frowned slightly, looking out the window with an uncertain expression: "...Let's leave her alone for now."
Seeing that Ning Bingyu was in a bad mood, Tony changed the subject: "Yes, then this time when you come back, young master, please be more polite to Miss Ning Yuan."
After all, the young master needs Miss Ningning in both directions, so he has to win people's hearts.
Ning Bingyu squinted, exhaled a puff of smoke, and uttered two words in standard Mandarin: "No."
Tony: "..."
