BXBX NOVEL Chapter 968: The Position of Family Head
Hearing Gu Zhaoming’s words, everyone smiled and did not continue to talk.
The Godly Doctor’s fee was so high that it could be 200 million yuan at the drop of a hat. They weren’t suffering from a terminal illness, so why would they spend an astronomical price to consult the Godly Doctor?
As for the Second Elder and the Fifth Elder, who had a good relationship with Gu Zhaoming, they did not seek treatment with the other elders. After all, Gu Jin had helped them previously.
Gu Shuzhi looked at the Gu family quietly, his face solemn and his expression dejected.
Gu Zhaoye asked in a low voice, “Son, why do you look so depressed?”
Gu Shuzhi closed his eyes and sighed. “Dad, we won’t fight for the position of Family Head anymore.”
Gu Zhaoye said, “I know, I know. We can’t win against Big Brother and the others.”
Gu Shuzhi was silent for a moment. He then looked at his father in surprise.
Gu Zhaoye asked in a low voice, “Shall we talk to Big Brother later? Tell him that we’re not fighting anymore and ask him not to mess with us?”
Although he didn’t know much about business, his son had said that his eldest brother had used business tactics to cause the company they invested in to lose a lot of money.
Gu Shuzhi looked at the smiling Gu Zhaoming from afar. He shook his head and sighed. “I’m afraid it’s not that simple. Eldest Uncle obviously doesn’t intend to stop here.”
Gu Zhaoming wanted to completely empty the second and third branches.
It’s not just about stopping now. Even if they wanted to stop, Gu Zhaoming wouldn’t.
“Then what should we do? Is Big Brother really going to bankrupt us and make us poor?”
Gu Zhaoye was anxious. “Ever since Big Brother came home, I haven’t offended him. Back then, he ran away from home mainly because his mother was angry. I have some responsibility, but it was Second Brother who urged me.”
“Although our butler was the one who caused Sister-in-law’s car accident, we didn’t instruct the butler! Why does Brother want to ruin us?”
Gu Shuzhi narrowed his eyes and glanced at Gu Zhao’an, whose expression was also grim. He tried to calm his not-so-smart father. “Don’t worry, I have a plan.”
There are no eternal enemies, only eternal benefits. As long as Eldest Uncle saw the value they provided, he would not cling to them.
The first branch was really different from the past. Gu Yang was the daughter of the Xiao family, Gu Jin was Young Master Xiao’s girlfriend, and Gu Zhaoming had joined the company’s board of directors. Even if the third branch joined forces with the second branch, they wouldn’t be a match for the first branch.
So, they could only cut off their losses and cling to the benefits they had now.
Gu Zhaoming’s family had made the Gu family proud during this period. The more Old Master Gu observed them, the more satisfied he became. Taking advantage of the fact that his three sons and seven family elders were around, he said:
“The last time I fell, although Jin saved me in time, my health hasn’t been the same. I didn’t have the energy to deal with the family business and affairs.”
“During this period, Zhaoming joined the company’s board of directors and handled the company’s matters efficiently. He and the elders also helped manage the family’s affairs, and everything has been handled very well.”
“Now that Zhaoming has demonstrated the ability to become the Gu family’s head, I’ve decided to pass the position of Family Head to him. Does anyone have any objections?”
Old Master Gu’s powerful and intense gaze swept across everyone present.
Gu Yang could tell that this decision was the result of Old Master Gu’s careful consideration. It was the only logical outcome.
Gu Zhaoming’s strength far exceeded that of Gu Zhao’an and Gu Zhaoye. If the position of Family Head were given to the other two, Gu Zhaoming could easily undermine them.
Gu Zhaoming’s expression remained unchanged.
The expressions of the others present shifted slightly. They were somewhat surprised but ultimately felt that the decision was reasonable.
