Chapter 324: A Mule or a Horse
Was being the crown prince of Huang Yao an easy job?
Grandpa Sheng’s face was gloomy. In the end, he could only agree. After all, he found it too embarrassing to go to Sheng Xiao. He was the one who replaced Sheng Xiao with Sixth Brother. Because he did not believe that without Sheng Xiao, Huang Yao would not be able to operate as usual.
Mama Sheng heard their conversation behind the door. She smirked. She wanted to see how long Sixth Brother could persist. They refused to be convinced until one was faced with grim reality.
During breakfast, Grandpa Sheng said, “You know there is an unfilial child in the Sheng family. In order to let Sixth Brother adapt to his work, you all must help him to get used to Sheng Xiao’s work as soon as possible. Any problem?”
“No,” said Mama Sheng.
“Eldest Aunt, it is impossible that you will help me sincerely,” said Sixth Brother coldly to Mama Sheng.
“I am a hundred percent sincere in helping you. A mule or a horse, we will know once it’s tested.” Having said that, Mama Sheng stood up. “You can go on eating. I am full.”
Actually, Grandpa Sheng did not just let Sixth Brother take over Sheng Xiao’s position, he also got him the best team of the whole country to help him in negotiating the business contracts with their business partners.
But even so, Mama Sheng was not bothered at all. There would soon be an important meeting with a German. It was Sheng Xiao who had made all the arrangements. But now since Sixth Brother was the person-in-charge, then just let him go and meet with the German.
This time, she wanted to let Grandpa Sheng know that there were some things that not everyone could do.
An international company always had a strict core management department.
However, for all these years, it had been Sheng Xiao who did all the work alone.
Grandpa Sheng knew this collaboration was very important, so he reminded Sixth Brother to handle it with care.
To prevent the other party from hanging up on him, Sixth Brother did not tell the German about the replacement of the person-in-charge. He sent his men to serve the foreigner instead.
But he did not know that his action was deceptive. And he did not know that in the German’s eyes, the action was very disgusting.
…
Mama Sheng told Sheng Xiao about what Sixth Brother did. However, at that moment Sheng Xiao was fishing in Shen Mansion and enjoying his freedom.
“If Huang Yao can’t get this business contract, your hard work for building up the network in Germany would be wasted.”
“Just let it be,” said Sheng Xiao.
“This will also mean that Huang Yao’s revenue for the second half of the year will drop significantly.”
“It’s not my company anyway. I don’t have to worry about it.”
“Somehow, it might be a good thing. Only when that old man feels the pain of losing, he will accept defeat.” Mama Sheng supported her son. “You shouldn’t be enjoying yourself too much. If that old man gets to know about it, he will get mad.”
“Mom, you don’t have to call me and tell me anything about Huang Yao anymore. You can just do whatever you deem fit.”
“Alright. I will let you enjoy your vacation. Take good care of Qiqi.”
She was his treasure, if he did not take care of her, who would?
…
The next day, when it was time to meet the German, Mama Sheng kept her promise and helped Sixth Brother to understand the project. She also emphasized that it was a very important project for Huang Yao.
Sixth Brother was very nervous, but he had no choice but to go to the battlefield. But when the German saw him, he asked, “Who are you? I am here to meet Mr. Sheng Xiao for this project.”
“I am sorry but due to some unforeseen circumstances, Sheng Xiao is no longer in charge of this project. I will take over this project for now. Nevertheless, I will provide you the utmost service on Huang Yao’s behalf.”
The man closed his laptop right away. “No Sheng Xiao, no talk.”
How many people had come to collaborate with Huang Yao because of Sheng Xiao? Perhaps Sixth Brother was unaware of this.
“But…”
“No buts. No Sheng Xiao, no talk. What’s wrong with you Huang Yao? Everything was going smoothly. Why did you suddenly replace the person-in-charge? It’s alright if you replace the person-in-charge, but why didn’t you inform us beforehand? An irresponsible company like yours doesn’t deserve a chance to collaborate with us.”
A German saw integrity as something very important. He would definitely be unhappy seeing Huang Yao doing such a thing.
“You are just a liar. A complete liar!”
How could Sixth Brother take it?
Seeing the other party being so firm, he could only apologize. “I am very sorry.”
Both parties left unhappily. Not to mention the collaboration, Sixth Brother didn’t even get the chance to open the files.
Not only that, the German booked a ticket back to his country that very afternoon. He called Huang Yao one last time. “I can’t think of any other company that is worse than you. We have encountered such things before. But how can you get such a man to replace Sheng Xiao? If this is the case, then the doom of Huang Yao would come very soon.”
Even the staff of Huang Yao were discussing the issue in private. “Is the chairman crazy? How can he simply get a man to replace the crown prince? How can he ignore the advice of the board of directors and make such a decision just because of wanting to show his power?”
“Don’t Sixth Young Master and Seventh Young Lady have the same parents? If that’s the case, they should be just as stupid.”
“If it goes on like this, Huang Yao will face its doom soon.”
“Since when did Huang Yao appoint the managers based on ties? The chairman is so ignorant.”
On this day, everyone in Huang Yao was angry. But they did not dare to speak up.
After knowing this, Grandpa Sheng was so angry. He sat in his study for the whole afternoon.
By now, he should know his place already. It was not Sheng Xiao who had begged him to be the crown prince of Huang Yao. Sheng Xiao did not need to beg him for anything.
Now, Sheng Xiao went fishing or taking naps in Shen Mansion all day. He was enjoying a very relaxing life.
And Grandpa Sheng should be the one who got anxious!
After understanding the situation, Grandpa Sheng got angrier. Because it meant that he had to beg that scum to come back.
No, he would not. He was the one blowing the trumpet, so he would not let Sheng Xiao get the advantage no matter what.
Mama Sheng knew that Grandpa Sheng must have felt miserable as he stayed in his study for hours.
But it didn’t matter. There would be a second episode. The later Grandpa Sheng admitted defeat, the greater the loss Huang Yao would suffer.
If he loved supremacy so much, he could just enjoy it!
…
And for these two days, Mu Qiqi was very happy. Xiaoxiao needed not to work, so they were stuck to each other all day.
But, she knew that such a life would not last long.
Xiaoxiao belonged to Huang Yao. But it would not be the one which Grandpa Sheng had control of.
Grandpa Sheng shouldn’t be able to stand it much longer!
