Huo Xiaoran’s smile froze as he turned around and looked at Li Tingye.
“Why do you say that, Big Brother?”
Li Tingye said, “Qiao An spoke rudely to Third Brother. What’s wrong with Third Brother teaching her a lesson?”
Huo Xiaoran sneered. “I don’t care how you want to discipline your wife, but no one can discipline my wife except me. If you want to provoke her, don’t blame me for not giving you courtesy.”
Li Tingye suddenly laughed crazily. “Haha, Xiaoran, the CEO of the Angel Group is not cheap, but our brothers’ Li Corporation is outdated. So do you think you can show off in front of us?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Brother, even if An’an and I are poor, I won’t allow everyone present to bully and humiliate her.”
Li Tingye was suddenly furious. “We’re not allowed to bully her, but she’s allowed to speak rudely to the elders?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “If you didn’t say anything wrong, An’an wouldn’t have spoken rudely to you.”
Li Tingye said, “It seems that Fourth Brother is not obedient to us. After all, he’s not born from the same mother. In that case, we won’t force Fourth Brother. From today onwards, Fourth Brother doesn’t have to return to the Li family villa.”
Huo Xiaoran did not expect Li Tingye’s ambition to grow overnight. However, he was a smart person and quickly realized that they might have benefited a lot from last night’s banquet.
He turned to Qiao An, with a questioning gaze in his eyes.
Qiao An patted his chest to calm him.
She walked up to Li Tingye and said, “Brother, don’t you just despise our fourth branch for being poor?”
Li Tingye revealed a smug expression.
Qiao An explained to Huo Xiaoran, “Brother Xiaoran, you still don’t know, right? Yesterday, when your brothers made you drunk, they coaxed you to sign the transfer of the Li family’s assets. Now that their assets have increased exponentially with the inheritance, they’re naturally not afraid of you, the CEO of the Angel Group.”
Only then did Huo Xiaoran realize.
He looked at Qiao An and saw the smile in her eyes. That smile was filled with mockery, so he whispered to her, “You didn’t let them get away with it, did you?”
Qiao An said confidently, “Can we let them get away with it?”
Huo Xiaoran sighed. “Fortunately, you had the foresight to fight with them for these assets. Otherwise, we would really be standing under a dangerous wall.”
While the two of them whispered among themselves, Li Tingye’s expression did not look good.
After Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran finished whispering, she looked at Li Tingye and said, “Brother has the intention to cut ties with Xiaoran, so we definitely won’t climb up the social ladder. However, Old Master is also Brother Xiaoran’s father. Brother Xiaoran has the obligation to support Old Master. Why don’t we ask Old Master now if he’s willing to follow Brother Xiaoran to Heavenly Imperial Garden to retire?”
Li Tingye remained silent.
At this moment, he, the old fox, was thinking that since Huo Xiaoran had already signed the transfer of assets, why not throw the burden of the old man to the fourth branch?
“You can discuss this with the Old Master.”
At this moment, the butler pushed the old man out. The old man’s expression was very ugly. He scolded Li Tingye, “You’re really despicable. You actually tricked Xiaoran into signing the transfer of assets?”
Li Tingye said, “Dad, how can you say that? Fourth Brother was indifferent to fame and fortune and willingly transferred his assets.”
Old Master Li snorted. “Hmph, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.”
Li Tingye said shamelessly, “Dad, you’re old. Don’t worry about the family matters. You should enjoy your family.”
Old Master Li was furious. “You want to dominate, don’t you?”
Li Tingye said, “I’m the eldest brother to begin with. I should support this family for my siblings.”
“I’m afraid you can’t,” Qiao An sneered.
Li Tingye looked at Qiao An coldly.
“Qiao An, what do you mean?”
Qiao An said, “If you want to control the Li family, you have to have outstanding leadership ability to convince the public, right? Also, didn’t you just say that the economic foundation determines the superstructure? Everyone knows who has the strongest economic foundation in this family, right?”
Li Tingye smiled at Qiao An’s ignorance. “It’s a woman’s opinion. In the past, perhaps Fourth Brother was the most suitable to manage the Li family. But now, Fourth Brother’s Angel Group hasn’t made much progress. His economy has long been below ours.”
Qiao An said, “Oh, what did Big Brother do to get rich?”
Li Tingye said, “I’ll inherit 50% of Dad’s shares in the Soaring Cloud Group. My value will be on par with Fourth Brother, right?”
Qiao An pretended to be puzzled. “Isn’t this Soaring Cloud Group inherited by Brother Xiaoran?”
Li Tingye looked at Qiao An in disdain. “Everyone says that you’re smart, but there’s actually not much to your intelligence. Fourth Brother gave up the inheritance of his assets, and Second Brother and Third Brother willingly inherited other assets. In this case, I will have the majority of the shares in the Soaring Cloud Group.”
Qiao An smiled. That smile was even more dazzling than Li Tingye’s disdainful expression.
Li Tingye sensed that something was wrong from Qiao An’s smile.
Especially after Qiao An immediately said, “You’re really stupid.”
Li Tingye broke out in cold sweat. At this moment, he realized that he had been deceived.
But he didn’t know what had gone wrong.
At this moment, he could only think of that contract. He quickly ordered First Madam, “Take out the contract.”
Madam took out the contract in a panic. Li Tingye flipped through the contract and finally realized that Qiao An had added punctuation to the important clause.
He glared at her angrily. A beautiful dream had come to nothing. The drop from heaven to hell had made him furious. “You’re smart, Qiao An.”
Qiao An only said calmly, “I don’t deserve your praise. After all, Big Brother just said that I’m a woman.”
As such, the situation of the eldest branch instantly reversed.
After Li Tingye’s dream turned into bubbles, he could not accept this huge difference and suddenly snorted with laughter.
“Hahaha. I, the eldest young master of the Li family, have been in the business world for my entire life, but I didn’t expect to lose to a little woman today.”
“Qiao An, no wonder Old Master thinks so highly of you. No matter if it’s me or your third brother and third sister-in-law, we’re all blind. That’s why we treat pearls as sand.”
“Okay, I lost. I’m convinced.”
“Hahaha.” He laughed miserably and helplessly.
Just last night, he had been smugly planning the rest of his life. How glorious it would be. But now that he had woken up from his dream, he was still the pitiful person with high debts.
“Hahaha.” He couldn’t stop laughing.
First Madam looked at him in horror. “Hubby, Hubby… Don’t be like this. The money is gone. We’ll earn it slowly.”
Li Tingye shook her off and ran out.
“Don’t tell me he’s delirious from the shock?”
