Chapter 280 Making Trouble
Whenever he talked about Xie Shiyuan, Bai Jiashu's expression would involuntarily become gentle.
Seeing Xie Tingke's eyes become friendly, it was mostly because of Xie Shiyuan, but then he thought of something, and his eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of displeasure in them.
"It's a pity that after all the calculations, in the end, it's all in vain."
"No matter how much you plan, you can't predict people's hearts. Who knew that Xie Tingke would end up calculating himself."
Secretary Xiao was silent for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "Then how did you guess that President Xie would fall off the cliff, and salvage President Xie at the most appropriate time, and escape Mr. Zhou's surveillance?"
Mr. Bai looks weak and unable to take care of himself, but it turns out that he is the most shrewd and scheming one.
"Boss Bai, Mr. Zhou is so smart, but he can't guess what you are thinking. They all look down on you and think that you are in poor health and can't do anything. In fact--!"
"Actually, I really can't do anything." Bai Jiashu interrupted lightly.
Secretary Xiao paused.
Bai Jiashu sighed, "Shi Yuan and I don't have a child yet... People are always selfish. Even if they know they will leave, they still want to leave a bloodline."
"I shouldn't have done that. I left a child to Shi Yuan. She would have fallen into a bad situation. But I always thought that the property I left to Shi Yuan would be enough to support her through those days."
"What is love? Love is both fulfillment and reluctance to give up."
It's rare to hear Bai Jiashu speak these words from his heart.
Secretary Xiao pricked up his ears and listened carefully. He wanted to continue listening, but saw Bai Jiashu suddenly stopped talking.
Secretary Xiao seemed to be thinking about something, and asked cautiously: "Mr. Xie's real name is... Zhou Zongren?"
These are the information that Bai Jiashu found.
Zhou Zongzhen and Zhou Zongren, there is only one character difference, but there is a world of difference between them.
Bai Jiashu nodded, "Zhou Zongren..."
"No matter which angle you look at him from, he doesn't look like Zhou Zongzheng, yet they share the same blood."
"There is one thing that seems to be similar, and that is the indifference in their bones."
As they were talking, there was a noise outside the door.
Bai Jiashu narrowed his eyes and heard hurried footsteps getting closer.
"Grandpa, what has Jiashu been busy with recently? Didn't he say he was resting? Why is he transferring assets? It's ridiculous to tell anyone that he transferred a large amount of assets to Xie Shiyuan! Who is Xie Shiyuan to him? A woman who has an ambiguous relationship with his brother and is constantly involved in romantic scandals!"
"Grandpa, why is Jiashu recuperating when he is fine? I'm afraid that recuperation is fake, and the real reason is that he was bewitched by a vixen! That is the Bai family's real money, how can he be qualified to transfer it to Xie Shiyuan without authorization? Who is Xie Shiyuan? How dare she accept it! A fickle little vixen!"
As we got closer to the ward, the voice became louder and louder, and this determined and arrogant voice was even more confident than before.
This is confirmation that Bai Jiashu will die, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
There is no need to be surprised by this arrogant and loud voice, it must be Madam Bai II.
It would not be an exaggeration to describe her as showing off.
"Grandpa, Jiashu is in this ward. If he is really as seriously ill as he said, how could he not tell you? I think he is just pretending to be sick in order to avoid the group's affairs and secretly transfer the property! How can Xie Shiyuan be qualified to inherit Jiashu's assets! She is an outsider!"
"Jia Shu's success today is entirely due to your help! How could he do such a thing! How could he be qualified to dispose of such a huge amount of funds at will! Every brick and tile is the property of the Bai family!"
In the past, she would have been cautious in what she said and did not say, but now... Madam Bai really has no scruples.
Perhaps, she was certain that Bai Jiashu would die, and she was also certain that she could inherit Bai Jiashu's property by moving Old Man Bai out, so she treated everything Bai Jiashu owned as her own.
This loud voice...
Secretary Xiao got angry after hearing this.
He was indignant and wanted to open the door to argue, but Bai Jiashu shook his head and said, "Forget it."
"The Second Madam is talking nonsense again. She asked the doctor for your medical report! But she accused you of faking illness in front of the old man!"
"The old man has been alienated from you in recent years, and it's inevitable that the second wife has been repeatedly jumping between them. She is just hoping that something bad will happen to you! She used to be considerate of you, but recently she has become more and more arrogant because she is sure that your condition is serious and she is deliberately trying to provoke you!"
Fortunately, Bai Jiashu had anticipated that this day would come and was already transferring his property, wanting to give these things to Xie Shiyuan.
Mrs. Bai Er had discovered something was wrong, so she was so angry.
Compared with Xie Shiyuan and Madam Bai Er, Madam Bai Er is more annoying.
Rather than letting these rubbish people take advantage, it is better to transfer all to Xie Shiyuan! At least Xie Shiyuan is the woman that Mr. Bai likes!
Secretary Xiao tried to hold back his discomfort and continued, "From childhood to adulthood, Bai Zhuoran has gotten all the benefits, and you have endured all the hardships. This is not fair!"
"There is no fairness in the world." Bai Jiashu said calmly.
Secretary Xiao felt even worse. "You have worked hard for the family, but you have never had a peaceful day. They get what they want without working, and their extravagant enjoyment is based on your efforts. When you fell ill, not only did no one care about you, but they also looked like they could not wait for you to die. How despicable!"
"I don't care." Bai Jiashu smiled, his voice became even lighter, his mood became calmer. No matter what people he didn't care about did, he wouldn't get angry. He just watched everything with gentle eyes.
The shouting outside the door continued.
“Old man, look at Jiashu. You are his grandfather who came to visit him, but he sent so many people to stop you! It’s obvious that he has ulterior motives!”
Mrs. Bai's arrogant voice came again, mixed with anger and impatience.
It seems like he is worried about something or afraid of something.
She was afraid that Bai Jiashu's property would be transferred and she would get nothing.
So disgusting!
Secretary Xiao was furious. He was glad that there were bodyguards outside to stop him, otherwise he would have slapped Madam Bai in the face if she said such things in front of him.
"Forget it, he's just a clown." Bai Jiashu still shook his head.
I have to admire this state of mind and bearing, no one can match it.
Never get angry, never be furious, be calm and composed.
After a while, the door of the ward opened and Mr. Bai forced his way in. The bodyguards did not dare to stop him.
Mrs. Bai II rushed in aggressively wearing high heels, pointed at Bai Jiashu's nose and was about to yell at him, but when she saw the man's nonchalant expression, she inexplicably felt a fear of being dominated.
She subconsciously shut up and looked at Mr. Bai.
Old Master Bai's face was ashen, and his eagle eyes were piercing and extremely sharp.
He wanted to get angry, but suddenly he saw a figure lying on the hospital bed.
Bai Jiashu was wearing a light blue shirt and leaning on a chair nearby, which looked out of place no matter how you looked at him.
Especially—the person lying on the hospital bed is Xie Tingke!
"This, isn't this Mr. Xie!" Unbelievable.
The news of Xie Tingke falling off a cliff finally leaked out.
"What Mr. Xie? He might even be the illegitimate son of the Xie family!"
Mrs. Bai Er took a quick glance and immediately said, "I heard it's a fake!"
"It's none of your business."
Mr. Bai was displeased.
Xie Tingke's abilities are obvious to all.
Young and extraordinary.
If it weren't for a special period, Mr. Bai really wouldn't want to offend.
"Nothing is certain, so stop talking nonsense!" Mr. Bai warned.
Mrs. Bai's expression changed slightly, and she said meaningfully, "Strange, why did Mr. Xie appear in Jiashu's ward?"
"Boss Xie's identity is so sensitive. In these troubled times, the Bai family should not get involved with him. Jia Shu, what's going on? Isn't Xie Tingke dead?"
"The wind is the wind, the rain is the rain. After so many years, the Second Madam's brain still hasn't improved." Bai Jiashu smiled again, so gently that it was heartbreaking.
"When Mr. Xie was the legitimate heir to the Xie Group, you called him Mr. Xie. When his identity was questionable, you called him Xie Tingke. Tsk, he says one face in front of people and another behind their backs, and it never changes." Shaking his head, Bai Jiashu expressed his admiration.
These words did not give Mrs. Bai any face. She bit her lip, a hint of anger flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but look at Mr. Bai's expression.
Old Master Bai frowned and looked at Bai Jiashu with disapproval.
"What's your attitude?"
"Ahem." Bai Jiashu covered his lips and coughed lightly. "I'm not feeling well right now. Grandpa, what attitude do you think I should have? Should I go downstairs to greet you in person, or should I turn the hospital into a restaurant and prepare a dinner in advance to entertain you when I hear about your arrival?"
Mr. Bai frowned even more tightly and said angrily, "He looks weak and frail, but he is actually a wolf in sheep's clothing!"
Bai Jiashu laughed helplessly, "Whatever I say is wrong."
Old Master Bai snorted coldly, and flew into a rage. He quickly walked towards the bed, and confirmed that the person lying on the bed was undoubtedly Xie Tingke. He said harshly: "This is simply nonsense! Don't tell me that you are getting involved in this kind of thing for Xie Shiyuan again!"
"Everything I do is wrong." Bai Jiashu's tone was good, his attitude was good, his smile was gentle, and there was nothing wrong with him.
Anyway, this is his attitude, which makes people lose their temper.
No matter what Mr. Bai said, he didn't refute or defend himself. He just said that whatever he did was wrong, which became his shield.
It’s just like the saying goes, he looks weak and frail, but he’s actually a thorn in his side!
"You are sick. Why didn't you inform your family about such an important matter? You put aside your work at the company and hid here to recuperate. People who know you think you are recuperating, and people who don't think you are on vacation." Mr. Bai said angrily, "Zhuoran reports to the company early every morning, and the members of the board of directors all praise him for his improvement."
"Really?" Bai Jiashu's lips curved. "I heard that he cut several projects in the planning department and planned to use the originally planned funds for overseas investment. Grandpa probably doesn't know that the international situation in recent years has been very fierce. The government of Country A specifically targets big capitalists like us. Once we transfer funds overseas, they will use local laws to embarrass us. It is common for them to find a random reason to ask the bank to freeze our funds."
"Grandpa has time to tell Zhuoran to be down-to-earth and have less contact with foreign friends. Maybe there is a scam waiting for him. He will lose everything he has invested. I am afraid that the entire Bai Group will lose it."
"The Zhou family is so powerful in Country A. The current head of the family, Zhou Zongzheng, is very interested in our capital chain. Grandpa, you remember my grandfather, right? You won't forget how they died. Those who refused to agree to the Zhou family's request died or went bankrupt."
Bai Jiashu lowered his eyes and sighed softly, "Zhuoran is not cut out for business, Grandpa, you don't have to use him to criticize me."
Old Master Bai's heart beat faster and he covered his chest tightly, fearing that he would not be able to breathe and would be killed by Bai Jiashu.
This grandson has a sharp tongue! I'm afraid he learned it from Xie Shiyuan!
The Bai Jiashu in the past was not so sharp-tongued. He disdained to argue or defend himself, let alone refute!
Is he really in such a bad condition that he is so fearless?
For a dying person, he needs to completely let go of himself and be himself in his limited life.
Everyone knows how Bai Jiashu's grandfather and his family fell into trouble. Because they offended a huge interest group, no one dared to lend a helping hand!
"What's going on between you and Xie Shiyuan?" Mr. Bai changed the subject and said unhappily, "That little girl is the most cunning. Where did she go? I heard about what happened outside. Putting aside the grudges between her and the Pei family, she and Xie Tingke are unclear. Xie Tingke is very likely not her brother! Look at their relationship, it's a mess. How shameful!"
"Jia Shu, are you crazy or are you convinced that you are going to die soon? You are so passionate about falling in love?
? "
Bai Jiashu's smile remained unchanged, but when he heard the words "Xie Shiyuan", his smile became more genuine.
"Hmm...it seems like he was drugged."
Mr. Bai glared angrily and said, "You—" Say it again!
Bai Jiashu shook his head. "Grandpa, are you here for Xie Shiyuan or Xie Tingke?"
Mr. Bai: “…”
I came here because of Bai Jiashu's physical condition!
But looking at the man's calm and indifferent eyes, the words that were about to come out of his throat could not be uttered, and a softening attitude flashed in his eyes.
At this time, realizing that something was wrong, Mrs. Bai quickly handed over a "Property Transfer Agreement".
When Mr. Bai saw this thing, his mind immediately became unclear.
This damned bastard! How dare he secretly transfer the property! !
Mr. Bai panted heavily, tried to soften his expression, and maintained a natural tone, saying, "Jia Shu, Grandpa is here for you. You are in such poor health, so don't get involved in these messy things. Your stepmother is right. Mr. Xie's identity is so sensitive. In these troubled times, the Bai family should not get involved with him."
"Even if we have to be related, it shouldn't be a personal connection. You have been competing with the Xie Group for so many years. Xie Tingke took advantage of your poor health and suppressed you everywhere. In the past, when you were competing for land quotas, he instigated the powerful to target you and made you lose face. If he falls into trouble, you know what to do."
"I've taught you that you should strike when the time is right. You can't repay evil with kindness!"
