Chapter 108 The adopted sister is a heartthrob 10
Even though his expression was a little distorted at the moment, his tall stature was still dignified, but his features were not as delicate as Zhao Ci Yan's.
Moreover, because of the hostility around him, he seemed a bit gloomy. He was unpresentable for no reason, and people could tell at a glance that he was probably a dark person.
It was also because of this that he was never liked by the old man. He was usually casual like a cat or a dog. He was always called and called. Of course, the most important thing in the old man's heart was his grandson as the heir.
Of course Zhao Xusheng was not convinced and tried his best to pull that man down.
The old man usually doesn't care about him. If such an illegitimate child brings down Zhao Ci Yan, then he would have to give up his identity as the heir as soon as possible and let someone else do it.
Anyway, his son is unfilial and he has a lot of illegitimate children, so he can just pick any one of them.
It's just that Zhao Ciyan has become more and more powerful in recent years, and even he can't control him anymore, so this time he came to give him a warning.
"Grandpa, Grandpa," Zhao Xusheng threw himself on the old man, "Call the doctor quickly."
The Zhao family's family doctor hurried over with a medicine box, stretched out his hand and listened a few times with a stethoscope. Since it was a show, it was natural to do the whole set. The family doctor had been waiting on the side for Mr. Shen to faint, and he came over to check as soon as he heard the noise.
After a while, Mr. Zhao pretended to just wake up and said, "Oh, my chest."
He slapped his chest several times and said, "It's really uncomfortable. I can't breathe."
His acting skills were naturally good, and even Zhao Ciyan chuckled.
If I had known that his acting skills were so good, I wouldn't have wanted to be the head of a family, and would have just become a movie emperor.
His laughter reached the old man's ears, but the old man coughed and pretended not to hear it.
He knew that his performance just now was a bit fake, but he still had to pretend. At least he had to smooth over the matter on the surface.
The doctor said at the right time: "The old man has a bad heart. You should be more careful with him. Why is he so angry this time?"
He was also unlucky to be involved in this matter.
It's not that he doesn't know the old man's character, and he probably wants to take advantage of the young master.
But after all, he was old. He was not feeling well. He was afraid of making the old man angry. So he was more patient and acted along.
"Be more careful in the future and don't make the old man angry."
"You grandchildren all follow the old man's lead. That's what an old man does."
The doctor seemed to be giving the order casually, but in fact he was mainly speaking to Zhao Ciyan. Zhao Ciyan ignored him, and the doctor gradually stopped talking.
Strictly speaking, he was just a family doctor, and even Zhao Ciyan was the one who paid his salary now.
He said that what he said was the utmost gratitude to the old man for his recognition and promotion. He dared not say any more, otherwise he would really be fired. There were many people in his family waiting for food.
He collected the medicine box and was about to leave. He had no business intervening in the mess inside the house. Let them handle it themselves.
Seeing the doctor leave, I can also say other things on the spot.
Zhao Xusheng was even more arrogant, pointing at him and saying, "Okay, I know you. You have long wanted to piss off Grandpa to death, and then take over the Zhao family. I tell you, as long as I am alive, I will not allow this to happen."
“Grandpa…” He looked at Old Man Zhao who looked grief-stricken.
Mr. Zhao was a little annoyed. If I had known, I would not have brought this person here. It would bring bad luck if he cried.
If you didn't know, you would have thought he was going to die.
However. However, considering that he performed hard, Mr. Shen turned a blind eye.
The most important thing was to get that vixen away from his favorite grandson.
"I have a terrible chestache."
"Really? Then how can I become comfortable?"
"Oh, I just need my eldest grandson to listen to me and send that woman away. Then I'll understand."
The old man looked at Zhao Ciyan with a cold expression, showing no emotion. It seemed that he didn't care about the whole farce.
Of course, he had the capital to do so. Old Master Zhao knew all of his methods. When it came to eliminating dissidents, he was even more ruthless than when he was young. He also managed to suppress the somewhat turbulent Zhao family, and no one dared to cross his brow.
Even when he was young, he was not able to do this.
He was naturally very satisfied, but he was not satisfied with the vixen and wanted to get rid of it. If he could really get rid of it, he would be truly relieved.
Although I was a little nervous and unsure of what he meant, I still gritted my teeth and pretended to be upset.
He looked like he was in great pain and was about to faint any moment, but he pretended very well.
It’s a pity that the person he wanted to care about the most saw through his disguise at a glance and was unwilling to pay any attention to him.
Zhao Xusheng supported him with one hand, pointed at Zhao Ciyan with the other and angrily said, "Look how mad you made Grandpa. Don't you know that Grandpa has a bad heart?"
It would be better if he could get even angrier, so that the old man could be mad to death. Then there would be changes in the Zhao family again. He also knew that the old man just regarded him as a joke.
He had served diligently for so long that he almost wanted to wash his feet. He had endured humiliation for such a long time, but the old man was unwilling to give him any power and held it tightly in his hands.
How could he tolerate the fact that the old man was just making fun of him? He wanted to poison the old man to death and get all his shares.
"know."
"I know you're still mean to grandpa. What if you make grandpa angry?"
Zhao Xusheng was a little excited. Yes, that's right. He should say more to let the old man know that he is the only one who can be filial to him, not Zhao Ciyan.
He has been coveting the Zhao family's property for a long time. Although he receives dividends every year, how can the money be enough?
People always want more and are always greedy, and he is no exception.
Since he was a child, his weak mother always told him that he was just an illegitimate child and that all he needed to do was to get some money.
But he was not willing to accept it. Why? Why? And that Zhao Ciyan was just born better than him, with a good mother.
As a result, everything was placed in front of him without him having to fight for it, and Zhao Ci Yan always looked cold and indifferent, as if he didn't like those things.
This made Zhao Xusheng even more jealous, and sometimes he would even take his anger out on his mother.
Why? It's all her fault. She didn't work hard. She made him an illegitimate child.
His mother was originally a timid woman who used her beauty to please men. After being scolded by her son several times, she dared not say anything anymore.
Zhao Xusheng even thought that it was someone else's fault and he was right.
He became more and more determined to make the Zhao family his, causing a lot of jokes.
It’s just that the old man has been somewhat dissatisfied with Zhao Ci Yan over the years, and has been enduring Zhao Xusheng, hoping that Zhao Ci Yan will feel a little dangerous and come to please him.
Otherwise, with Zhao Xusheng's behavior, he would have been kicked out long ago.
"Ah, Xusheng is filial, unlike some people who become less obedient to me as they get older. Ah, it seems that I am not being irresponsible when I say something now."
"Grandpa," Zhao Xusheng rushed in front of him, showing a touching love between grandfather and grandson.
Zhao Ciyan was getting a little impatient. He realized at a glance that the old man was pretending. The older he got, the more he acted like a naughty boy, even resorting to such tricks.
If it were in the past, he would have had the time and the mood to play with him, but now that she wanted to take Yunzhi away from him, he couldn't bear it anymore.
What Shen family? He also knew Shen Yu. He looked at Yunzhi with a disgusting look from the beginning.
Out of his vigilance towards his own kind, he immediately spotted the love hidden in it.
Now he even came to ask for marriage. How could he possibly agree?
I had taken so much benefit from him before, but in the end he gave me nothing.
Shen Yu probably knew that he was in trouble, and because of his status as his brother-in-law, he didn't want to retaliate and make things too awkward.
Now that he had hit a snag, he went to see Mr. Zhao again. He had found the right person. Mr. Zhao had disliked Yunzhi for a long time and was eager to marry her off in exchange for some benefits.
But I still have to ask him whether he agrees or not.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. The group still has projects waiting for my approval."
"You, you're leaving now."
Zhao Xusheng clenched his fists and rushed over to hit him. Here he goes again, like this again. He tried so hard to please others in order to get a smile from Mr. Zhao.
As for Zhao Ciyan, he didn't have to do anything and even talked back to the old man, but the old man put everything in front of him.
Why is it so unfair? Just because he didn't come out of that woman's belly.
He hated everyone at this moment. He hated the woman who gave birth to him the most. It was all her fault that she was not motivated enough. No matter how he urged her, she was unwilling to fight for the position of Mrs. Zhao.
If she wants to. Because he is also the upright young master of the Zhao family.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. But no matter how angry he was, he couldn't change the facts. He had to watch Zhao Ciyan leave like this again.
He went up to him and wanted to beat him up.
The old man was unhappy when he saw this, so he had to pretend to be sick and stopped him directly.
A funny illegitimate child actually dared to hit the eldest grandson he had raised.
"Alright, alright."
What the hell? He dared to hit his eldest grandson. It was just an act. If he really dared to hit him, he and his mother would have to get out the next moment.
"But grandpa..." Zhao Xusheng was a little unwilling.
"I'm fine. I just felt a little uncomfortable, but I'm all better now."
Even Zhao Xusheng felt that something was wrong with this statement.
I wondered in my mind, could this old man be pretending?
He looked at the old man suspiciously. His face was ruddy and his eyes were bright. He certainly didn't look sick. He became more certain of his guess.
He cursed inwardly. He was too excited just now. He thought the old man would be completely fed up with his nominal elder brother, but in the end, he was the one being made a fool of.
But even if he was being played as a monkey, what could he do? He could only continue to be a monkey. To please Mr. Zhao, let him slip some things from his hands.
Zhao Xusheng dared not speak out, and carefully supported the old man, "Grandpa, you have to take care of yourself."
The old guy should die and be reincarnated as soon as possible. Don't bother him here.
If something really happened, he would be the first to send the person away.
"Okay, okay, I know my body better than you do."
The old man pushed him away with one hand. This guy really doesn't know how to read people's faces. I helped him persuade him to quit. He kept chattering.
"Anyway, I don't care what you say, Ci Yan, I won't agree to you being with her."
The old man stood up after he finished speaking. After being exposed for pretending to be sick today, he still had to save some face. He walked out with his crutches, and naturally, a large number of his followers left.
The old man is gone, how dare they stay here.
After all, the young master is now at odds with the old man, and he is not a merciful person. If they get in his way and he punishes them, the old man probably won't say anything.
Only the second young master couldn't see the situation clearly.
If they were the second young master, of course they would have to behave themselves, try to please the eldest young master, and live a peaceful life as an illegitimate child.
When the time comes, I will get some things from the eldest young master. Anyway, I will definitely live a much better life than ordinary people.
The old man will pass away sooner or later, but the young master can live for decades.
Only after seeing him leave did Zhao Ciyan show some signs of fatigue.
He knew this day would come, so he had accelerated his efforts to control the Zhao family over the years. Now even the old man couldn't control him, so he could only pretend to be sick to make him give up.
"Did Shen Yu really come to propose marriage?"
The secretary stepped forward and said, "The people on the old man's side said it was true."
Zhao Ciyan pinched his brows with a bit of tiredness, "When did they get together?"
They didn't say who it was, but the secretary knew it must be the beloved Miss Yun Zhiyun and Mr. Shen.
He lowered his head and replied, "Shen Yu happened to be teaching Miss Yun's class, and then he invited Miss Yun to join the project team. It is most likely that they developed feelings for each other while on the project team."
"Of course, it could also be that Shen Yu has a one-sided love for her."
The secretary handed over a photo and placed it in front of him.
Zhao Ciyan picked it up and saw that it was a photo of the two of them cuddling together. He said self-deprecatingly, "They have a good relationship and are now thinking about getting married."
He tried every possible means to stop it for a long time, but ended up making a fool of himself.
He never expected that Shen Yu would directly propose to him without going through Yunzhi, and he was too hasty. However, he has now successfully caused Zhao Ci Yan to misunderstand.
"As for unrequited love, how could it be unrequited love?"
"Shen Yu never does anything he is not sure of. It seems that Yunzhi has grown up and is hiding a secret from her brother."
Zhao Ciyan's face was gloomy in the dark, and the secretary felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. He had said all the nice things he could and could only pray that Miss Yun was okay.
The secretary had seen Miss Yun before. Although he knew that he could not covet her with his status, he buried his feelings in his heart, but now he could not help but speak for him.
