Chapter 83: shes like. (1/2)

Honey remained silent and didn't bother to look up from the book.

Wang Nan, ”Acting arrogant, huh? How about a match?”

Honey rolled his eyes while keeping his eyes at the book. This fly was constantly buzzing him and he can't swat it away. Life sure throws lemons sometimes!

Determined, Wang Nan set the game and took the seat. ”The loser will know-tow three times.. In front of the entire family and the servants. How about this now?”

Housekeeper Mo clutched his chest. Wang Nan was the national champion in 'Go'. There's no way Honey could defeat him. He tried to pick the wooden board of the game, ”Master Nan, let's not force little master. He's just a child. I'll wrap it for you.”

*SPAK*

”Stupid servant,” Wang Nan slapped away Housekeeper Mo's hand. ”Don't you know how expensive this hand-carved wooden board is? Each of the stones is made of jade. People like you should never touch precious things like these. It's only for aristocrats.”

Housekeeper Mo was used to Wang Nan's snobby behavior. Right now all he cares was not to let Honey be bullied.

However

”Let's play.” His soul flew away when Honey took the seat across Wang Nan. ”But if I win, you would know-tow three times in front of grandpa Mo and apologize.” He gave a smile to the anxious old man before returning to his old indifferent self. ”Do you dare? If not, I'll look down upon you.”

Wang Nan's expression darkened, ”Done. But let me tell you, I'm the National Champion. You better not cry in your daddy's arms later, SHORTYY.”

In the study room,

Wang Shi helped Elder Wang to his favorite king chair near the fireplace and took the one opposite him.

”Before you start, let me ask” Elder Wang adjusted the shawl on his legs. ”Was Honey hurt because of Nan?”

”I'm sure your resources have informed you everything by now.”

”This kid.”

”Kid? This only happens under the influence of parents. Kids don't have the mind to the scheme. Everyone in the family knows Honey is sensitive to this topic, yet they used it as a weapon to crush his confidence. Should I tell you what the reason behind it is?”

Elder Wang was tongue-tied. He knew he did it at the instigation of Chuzhi to kill Honey's chance to get the company.

”It's your fault. I had asked you many times to take over Wang industries but all you did was to start People's group in collaboration with Feng Jianyu. Don't you have any responsibility towards the company built by your grand-mom?”

He's still concerned for the company, as it was the result of his beloved wife's hard work. When he decided to give full time into politics, she stepped into his shoes to handle the family business and later expanded it exponentially.

”I've fully acquired the People's group from Feng Jianyu already. My hands are full, I can't handle Wang Industries. Give it to your other grandson (Wang Chuzhi) and spare me.”

Elder Wang banged his walking stick in rage, ”Give it to him and see the company return to ruin just how his father (Wang Chuzhi's father) did it years back!?!? If you don't want it, I'll give it to Honey. You just manage till he reaches the age.”

After the death of his wife, he divided the company equally between his two sons, Wang Huang (Wang Shi's father) and Wang Bo (Wang Chuzhi's father).

However, Wang Bo lost his share of the company in gambling. Before he could be confronted, they found him dead in the bathtub. Heavily drunk!

It was only because of Wang Huang's hard work that the company survived the heavy blow. Technically, the company belongs only to Wang Shi as Wang Bo had lost his share already, but Wang Chuzhi was seeking another division if not the entire company.

”Calm down, you're not of the age where you could afford to get angry,” Wang Shi passed a glass of water, ”second, don't drag Honey into this mess. He's just a kid; don't make him the target of these schemes.”

”Fine. I'll give a small part of it to Chouzhi. It will be enough for him to continue to maintain his lifestyle. But you've to merge the rest of the company with the People's Group.”

Wang Shi pinched his glabella. Why the old people are so difficult to reason with?
