Chapter 524: No One Will Come_1
Elder Master Jiang sighed, "I hadn’t expected Jiang Minghui to make a move against Chen’er so soon. If it were some time later, once Chen’er’s Yi Chen reached a hundred billion in funds, by then, I wouldn’t be afraid of Jiang Minghui laying a finger on him.
The several old folks in the family had already agreed that as long as Chen’er’s funds reached a hundred billion, they would support him.
But now, with this issue arising at such a critical moment, those old folks have started to waver, and these past few days, Jiang Minghui has certainly not neglected to visit them!"
"This..." Butler Lu’s face showed a slight change in color, the several elders in the family were Elder Master Jiang’s biggest bargaining chip. If they all started to waver and shifted support to Jiang Minghui, that would be troublesome.
"Don’t worry too much, those old chaps, even if one or two of them defect to Jiang Minghui, not all will do so—it’s most they’ll remain neutral.
And the current situation has its pros and cons, after all, ’There is no thief for a thousand days, but there is defense against a thief for a thousand days.’
It seems Jiang Minghui has been eyeing Chen’er for a long time and can’t hold back any longer. If he becomes desperate and disregards his reputation, then Chen’er will be in danger.
Therefore, this incident is a hurdle for Chen’er, as well as an opportunity. If Chen’er can resolve this issue, he will have a justified reason to return to the family, and Jiang Minghui will no longer be able to openly use the power of the Jiang Family to suppress Chen’er.
As long as Jiang Minghui can’t move openly, we’ll help Chen’er watch out for any underhanded tactics, and things should be largely foolproof."
Having said that, Elder Master Jiang suddenly shook his head and chuckled lightly, "If Chen’er can’t resolve it, I’m old already, and I don’t want to see the day my lineage ends. At that time, I’ll move to Dingjing to be with him, and even if he lives a stable life as a wealthy man there, it’ll be good enough!"
After finishing, a trace of relief appeared in Elder Master Jiang’s eyes.
Butler Lu’s heart trembled. He knew very well that no matter how harsh Elder Master Jiang sounded on ordinary days, family was still family after all, and the elder did not wish to see his family come to blows against each other.
