Chapter 148 - 148 Be An Honest, Wealthy Heir
“I found the reason?”
[I’m Proud Of It, So What?] was stunned at first, then he blurted out, “Is there really a problem with my fate or destiny?”
“The former.” Chen Yu shook his head.
“Dr. Chen, didn’t I just tell you?” [I’m Proud Of It, So What?] said in surprise,
“My family has no power and no influence, and I’m an honest man.”
“Other than offending some classmates when 1 was young and frivolous,”
“After that incident, 1 never dared to offend anyone again.”
“Even if I’m bullied, I’ll just pretend to be a coward. If someone hits my left
cheek, I’ll stretch my right cheek over.”
“I’d rather be bullied than cause trouble for my family.”
[I’m Proud Of It, So What?] believe Chen Yu is omnipotent.
However, he still felt that there was no logic to Chen Yu’s words.
To be targeted, one must first offend them.
Ever since he committed the crime of manslaughter, [I’m Proud Of It, So
What?]’s personality has undergone a 180-degree change.
He had been arrogant and cool in the past, fearless of anything.
He had become an honest coward who was even more obedient than the most honest of children.
It had been ten years since the incident, and he didn’t even dare curse out loud.
“Don’t be in a hurry to explain yourself.”
“If someone is targeting you, it doesn’t mean you have offended them.”
“It’s also possible that you’re blocking someone else’s path to wealth.”
Chen Yu’s words once again made [I’m Proud Of It, So What?] confused.
“Dr. Chen, that’s even more impossible.”
“I’m just an ordinary white-collar office worker in charge of the company’s
publicity work.”
“How can 1 stand in anyone’s way?”
“Our publicity department usually receives a large sum of money, but this
money directly goes into the finance department.”
“The people below are just using our budget as instructed. We don’t have any access to money at all.”
“Your parents have put in a lot of effort to nurture you into an honest man,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile.
“They’ve successfully turned you from a young man who went astray to a university student who excels in conduct and learning.”
“It was done to avoid all kinds of disasters that might happen to you in the future.”
“But at the same time, what they did was a little excessive, causing your character to become too honest and cautious.”
“So, it’s affecting your cousin’s financial plan.”
“Dr. Chen, wait a moment!”
[I’m Proud Of It, So What?] hurriedly interrupted Chen Yu and asked, “Cousin?
When did 1 have a cousin?”
“How could 1 affect his financial plan?”
He clearly remembered that his mother was an only child.
He also had no brothers or sisters.
Why would a cousin be popping out of nowhere?
“This cousin of yours is a distant relative of your mother’s,” Chen Yu said. “He’s slightly related to you.”
“As for why you’re affecting his plans, it’s because he’ll lose everything in two years.”
Since [I’m Proud Of It, So What?] was still at a loss, Chen Yu might as well clarify his words.
“Your cousin is the president of your company, but his identity is a little awkward.”
“It’s something like a servant who holds the key to the house.”
“After all, your parents are the ones who can make actual decisions.”
“They are the actual shareholders of the company.”
“Your cousin is just a front they pushed out.”
[I’m Proud Of It, So What?] sucked in a cold breath.
His cousin, who had appeared out of nowhere, was the CEO of his company.
This CEO was just a puppet, while the real big boss was actually his parents… Was this reality or a script for a movie?
In order to compensate the families of the deceased, his family had long been left with nothing.
How could they own such a large corporation?
Countless question marks appeared in the chat, as the viewers were even more confused than [I’m Proud Of It, So What?].
Previously, the chat and [I’m Proud Of It, So What?] expressed the dilemma between family and self-worth.
In the blink of an eye, [I’m Proud Of It, So What?] had turned into the young master of a massive corporation that belonged to his family.
What a cliche story.
Leaders or heirs of many corporations were developing late stages of cerebral hemorrhage after listening to this revelation.
What the hell was this?
Chen Yu glanced at [I’m Proud Of It, So What?]’s dumbstruck expression through his screen.
“Your parents didn’t go bankrupt, and you didn’t kill anyone.”
“Everything at that time was a scene set up by your parents to pull you back on the right path.”
“According to your path at that time, you were only a few steps away from going to prison.”
“Unlike ordinary parents, as businessmen, they know very well that it would only bite them down the road if they didn’t make a decision quickly.”
“Ordinary methods can’t make you change your mind. They have to use a strong medicine.”
“They remembered a foreign movie they watched before and thought that one of the scenes in it might be useful in helping you to change your ways.”
“After a makeover, they invited a few employees of their company into their act, making you think that you killed someone.”
“Manslaughter can let you understand what will happen if you continue to act recklessly.”
“They transferred the family’s properties, creating the illusion of bankruptcy, which further cut off your bad habit of idling around.”
“Just as I said earlier,” Chen Yu sighed after pausing momentarily. “In order to
let you learn your ways, they’ve gone to great lengths.”
“In the end, their efforts weren’t wasted.”
“After this incident, you’ve really turned over a new leaf.”
“You took the initiative to study diligently and never go out to play with those scoundrels again.”
“Your parents are happier than anyone else to see you improving daily.”
“When people are happy, they have more motivation for their work.”
“In addition, since they don’t have to worry about you anymore, the two of them can have more energy to focus on business.”
“They’ve keenly grasped a bonus period of the real estate industry and transformed your family’s construction company into a real estate company.” “When a company becomes big, it is inevitable that they will have to accept interviews from various media outlets.”
“But they’re worried that you’ll find out the truth and return to your old ways.”
“Your parents’ plan was to find a relatively capable person among their
relatives to be the nominal boss of their corporation.”
“He would be responsible for accepting media interviews and attending various public events for them.”
[I’m Proud Of It, So What?] no longer listened to the rest of Chen Yu’s words. Memories of the past appeared in his mind.
“Son, I have good news for you. Dad and Mom have found a job. Your mom is a
nanny, and I’m a night guard at a big company.”
“Damn old man, stop eating. Our son is still growing. Leave these pieces of meat for him.”
“Dad and Mom got paid today and bought you your favorite watermelon.”
“Son, you must study hard. It’s okay for us to work hard as parents. When you
get into university and graduate, our family will be able to live a good life.” [I’m Proud Of It, So What?] was about to get seriously depressed.
In order not to disappoint his parents and, more importantly, to let them live a good life,
He studied with all his might.
He even limited his sleep time to only five hours a day.
Ever since he graduated from university, he did not even dare to find a girlfriend.
At this time, Chen Yu was still narrating.
“At that time, your family property will be his. You will really have nothing, both life and money..”
