218 A Target for All

As soon as the old master said this, even Qiao Ying, who was least interested in the family business, widened her eyes.

Old Master Qiao’s announcement was like a seismic wave that shook the Qiao residence.

The first person to react was Qiao Yi. “Dad, what do you mean? I won’t have my own businesses anymore? Did I hear wrong? I’m going to transfer all my local businesses to this grandson of yours who’s not even related to you by blood?”

Qiao Li frowned and chimed in, “That’s right, Dad. Second brother didn’t have that many businesses in the country to begin with. Besides, it was you who asked him to set up his business abroad.”

!!

Qiao Ren, on the other hand, looked indifferent. He just sat and ate quietly.

“That’s right. It’s a little unfair for you to treat second brother like this. Qiao Yue is still a child after all.” Tao Xi rolled her eyes at her good-for-nothing husband and spoke up for Qiao Yi.

The old master had completely recovered and was ready to rejoin the company and reorganize the family.

Because of this, Qiao Yi and Qiao Li had recently toned down, in hope of avoiding the old master’s inspection.

However, the old master seemed to be turbo-charged and decided very quickly to remove Qiao Yi from management of the family business, and introduced Qiao Yue.

“Grandpa, you’re not thinking clearly. Fifth brother might not have the ability to do so.” Qiao Xin said.

Qiao Ying tugged at her sister’s sleeve, asking her to shut up.

Qiao Xin frowned at Qiao Ying, not understanding why her timid sister would remind her at this time.

“Alright, my decision is final.” Old Master Qiao ignored their objections and went upstairs to rest.

Everyone’s eyes turned to Qiao Yue again.

Qiao Yue, in contrast, was calm, composed and eating his dinner.

Qiao Jing was very calm too. When Old Master Qiao spoke with him a couple of days back, he had already hinted that he would let Qiao Yue manage some of Qiao Yi’s businesses.

“Qiao Yue, I really don’t know what kind of magic potion you’ve been feeding Old Master Qiao to make him like you so much that he’s even given you all my assets.” Qiao Yi said through gritted teeth.

Qiao Yue raised her head and looked at Qiao Yi as she enunciated word by word, “Those who commit injustice are doomed to destruction!”

Qiao Yi looked at Qiao Yue’s cold face and detested him even more. “What did you say? When have I committed injustice?”

“Do you think the old master doesn’t know about Mahad?” Qiao Jing stood up and shielded Qiao Yue.

“You’re just like your mother. You only know how to steal things from the family. You’re shameless!” Qiao Yi shouted.

Qiao Ren got up and stood beside Qiao Jing.

“Big brother, what are you doing?” Qiao Yi shouted at Qiao Ren.

“You don’t have to be so harsh to a junior. Second brother, this is the old master’s decision.”

Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Ren, who still had an indifferent expression on his face. This was the first time she had seen Qiao Ren express his opinion on something since she came to the Qiao family.

“Big brother, I know you have a good son, Qiao Jing, but neither of my sons have any assets. Now that I’ve been stripped of mine, what will happen to them?” Qiao Yi then turned to his two sons and said, “You guys have to help me take back what belongs to our family!”

“Mahad?” Qiao Yu chuckled. “Dad, do you know what Mahad does?”

Qiao Yu wasn’t just a nerd who only knew how to study. He also paid attention to current and international affairs.

“Mahad is an organization that’s involved in gambling, human trafficking, the dark web, and religious cults. Dad, is this how you manage your career?” Qiao Yu rarely spoke to his father like that.

Qiao Yue was also stunned for a moment. Qiao Yu was actually butting heads with his father.

“Regardless of who I do business with, all of you are willing to watch an outsider come into our family and take away our assets?”

“That’s right, big brother. Even if second brother is in the wrong, this inheritance shouldn’t be given to Qiao Yue.” Qiao Li chimed in.

If Qiao Yue could take over Qiao Yi’s businesses now, he might also covet their assets in future. Mitigation would be too difficult then.

Qiao Ren sneered, “Do you think that by doing this, the old master will hand over his assets to you? Are you guys not aware that since you drove Qiao Qing away because of such a thing back then, the old master has lost his confidence in you?”
