Chapter 279 You Don’t Have to Have the Last Name Xu
I know that this is the expression of a person's anger and shame when his inner thoughts are exposed.
Grandpa Xu is also a human being and cannot escape these emotions.
He probably had never been said this to anyone in his life. Perhaps the last person who had such a tough conversation with him was Xu Zhengnan's father.
I looked at him neither humbly nor arrogantly. I didn't think he loved Xu Zhengnan, nor did he have the love and affection that a grandfather had for his grandson. He was just helpless and favored boys over girls. He didn't want to hand over the company to his niece or granddaughter, and would rather hand it over to Xu Zhengnan, who had little interaction with him but was a man.
Xu Zhengnan is excellent and capable. The company will definitely be able to move to a higher level if he is handed over to him.
Grandpa Xu's mentality is very similar to that of my grandparents. My grandparents didn't like me at first, but they changed their attitude towards me after they knew that I had excellent grades and had close contacts with Xu Zhengnan.
What they want is the benefits I can bring in the future, not feelings.
"Li Yue! Is that how you talk to an elder? You are so self-righteous and thorough, what do you know? If Zhengnan's father hadn't run away from home for a woman, he would have achieved more now!"
"You want Zhengnan to follow in his footsteps, right? Beauty has always been a disaster, and you want to make him lose his best opportunity!"
"His surname is Xu, and he is of our Xu family blood, so he must put the interests of the Xu family first!"
Grandpa Xu was aggressive, his old face full of anger. He picked up his cane and pointed it at me, as if he was going to swing at me and teach me a lesson in the next second.
My heart was pounding and I couldn't refute what he said.
Because when you are in a high position, it is not as simple as my idea that you can control everything.
At this time, the door opened again. Xu Zhengnan walked hurriedly. The moment he rushed in, he saw me and his expression changed from worry to anger.
He strode over, grabbed my hand and protected me behind him.
Grandpa Xu looked at this scene and suddenly shouted angrily, "Why didn't anyone report him to me?!"
The servants around were so frightened that they dared not breathe.
Xu Zhengnan was in a very low mood. He must have come in a hurry. There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. His breathing was heavy. He was angry and full of hostility as soon as he opened his mouth. "I can stop being a member of the Xu family. I can have the surname Yang!"
This statement undoubtedly hit the point that Grandpa Xu cared about most.
This is his only grandson.
If Xu Zhengnan changed his surname, I'm afraid Grandpa Xu would be furious.
"Zhengnan, I'm doing this for your own good. There are plenty of women out there, and you can have children too. I'm old, and my health is getting worse. The company will eventually be handed over to you, and you can't let your emotions get the better of you." He looked at Xu Zhengnan helplessly.
No matter how extreme what Xu Zhengnan said, he endured it.
Because Xu Zhengnan was really capable of changing his surname.
Xu Zhengnan held my fingers tightly and answered bluntly, "No, I have no interest in the Xu family's company. Li Yue is my future wife and she is pregnant with my child. If you bully my wife and child again, I don't mind fighting to the death."
Hearing him speak so seriously, I quickly shook his hand gently, suggesting that he shouldn't do that.
I kept Aunt Yang's words in mind. Letting Xu Zhengnan return to the Xu family was the only wish of Xu's father before he died.
I really don't like Grandpa Xu humiliating me like this, but I can't just watch the conflict between them become more and more intense.
Xu Zhengnan turned his head to look at me. Only when I was so close to him did I realize that his eyes were red. I wondered if it was because of anger.
Grandpa Xu was so angry that he started coughing violently. He patted his chest and the servant hurriedly rubbed his back. The atmosphere became increasingly unbearable.
I looked at Grandpa Xu nervously, he seemed to have difficulty breathing.
"Let's go." Xu Zhengnan didn't care, but took my hand and turned to leave.
"Xu Zhengnan, Grandpa Xu doesn't seem to be in good health." I reminded him, "Why don't we wait a little longer."
"There is a family doctor on call at all times, so we don't need to worry." Xu Zhengnan shook his head.
He took me out of the Xu family's old house. As soon as I came out, I felt the air became lighter. Just now in the old house, my lungs seemed to have been compressed and unable to filter the air.
After getting in the car, Xu Zhengnan asked me nervously, "Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell? Did my grandfather say a lot of nasty things? Don't be angry, just think of him as an old and confused person saying nonsense."
"I'm fine." I shook my head and gave him a comforting smile. "I was mentally prepared before coming here. I'm not that fragile."
"Just refuse directly next time. Don't be afraid that they will have a bad impression of you. Even if I go back to the Xu family in the future, I will go back to take over the company. Since I'm the head of the Xu family, the first thing I will do is to bring you over legitimately. I will never let you suffer any grievances." Xu Zhengnan touched my face and said with heartache.
I was originally upset by Grandpa Xu's words, but after hearing Xu Zhengnan's sweet words, I felt much more relaxed.
I believe he will not give up on me.
"Yeah, I know." I nodded vigorously.
Xu Zhengnan took me back to Aunt Yang and told her that Grandpa Xu had come to see me today.
Aunt Yang immediately became nervous, "Xiaoyue, did Zhengnan's grandfather... say anything unpleasant? Don't take it to heart, I've been through those things too, I..."
"Grandpa Xu said that I could either give birth to the child and let the Xu family raise it, or I could pay to abort the child." I smiled casually, "I refused him and said that I wanted to raise the child with Xu Zhengnan."
My retelling made Xu Zhengnan's face darken on the spot. He stood up suddenly and asked, "Why didn't you tell me at the old house?"
Of course I didn't dare tell him at that time, because that was when he was most angry.
If he loses his mind and completely falls out with Grandpa Xu, it will be my fault.
I can't even explain this to Aunt Yang.
Aunt Yang knew what I was thinking, and she looked at me with guilt in her eyes.
I endured the grievances and did not tell Xu Zhengnan immediately in order to protect the relationship between Xu Zhengnan and the Xu family.
"Xu Zhengnan, Grandpa Xu doesn't understand and doesn't know the feelings between us, so he did that. He saw a lot of wrong things I did on the Internet, so it's normal for him to be prejudiced against me. Let's take it slow, and don't get excited." I answered softly.
Xu Zhengnan was rarely emotionally stable, "Want to beat my child? Dream on!"
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I didn't agree. My belly is on my body and no one can touch it." I hurriedly took Xu Zhengnan's arm and said.
Aunt Yang frowned, "Your grandpa has gone too far this time!"
"Aunt Yang, I want to drink some Tremella fuciformis porridge. Can you help me cook some?" I said to Aunt Yang, because I wanted to talk to Xu Zhengnan alone.
Aunt Yang understood what I meant and turned to go to the kitchen.
