Heng Bingwen had the reports right in front of him.
He was in a dilemma.
"If these reports are handed over to the President, my father would be over..."
Complicated emotions surfaced in his heart.
Although father has treated me wrongly in the past, he has always looked down upon me, it was not the worst treatment...
Heng Bingwen was clear of this fact.
In cases like this, under the incitement of the wife, it is common for people in business circles to kill the children from their previous marriages...
However, my father had secretly provided us with financial assistance during the time...
Although I am disappointed in my father, it hasn't reached the point I would hate him... or wish him to die...
And also, in my grandfather's letter, he had asked me to find forgiveness in my heart.
He wanted me to spare my father.
What am I supposed to do now?
Heng Bingwen sighed. The evidence was in his hands. But in his heart, there was a profound hesitation.
After a moment of deep contemplation, he slowly reached to a conclusion.
No
President Jing has so many favors on me
How can I betray her?
Grandfather, Father, forgive me for this.
I can not go against my principles.
At that point, a light knock came from the outside. "Come in." Heng Bingwen said, closing the documents on his laptop. The person who had entered was no one other than his father.
Seeing him, Heng Bingwen's eyes became cold.
However, he didn't show any disrespect. Practicing proper etiquettes, he greeted his father.
Heng Huizhong's expressions didn't change. He had one of his arms folded behind his back, his face was mostly expressionless. "Have you thought it through?"
Heng Bingwen was confused. "About what?"
"About the preposition from the Su family."
Heng Bingwen fell silent.
So my father knew about it all along?
It was more likely he was the one who had sent those envoys from the Su empire to discuss negotiations with me.
Otherwise how come they so boldly came to me with that proposition?
"What they purposed is against the contracts. Not only legal, but it also violates the moral ethics."
"Son, you are still young. Do you think these things matter? Our Heng Limited Software, between the power struggles between the Su enterprise and Tang enterprise, it is just like a small fry. It can be crushed at any moment. Do you care about the legacy left behind by our ancestors?"
Heng Bingwen frowned, not quite grasping what his father was trying to get at.
"Since you are now the Chief Executive, decisions stand in your hands. You must choose what is in the best interests of our company. Between Tang enterprise and Su enterprise, which one is more powerful? You, of all people, would be
crystal clear of this. One bad move from you can result in us being eradicated in the future. Was it what your grandfather asked you for?" Heng Huizhong used Elder Heng's name to pressurize Heng Bingwen.
Originally, these words might have been able to affect Heng Bingwen
But...
He knew a secret.
My President Jing holds a trump card!
Not just any trump card, but the God of trump cards!
The only reason that Su enterprise is still standing is that she wants to play a game of mouse and cat with them!
And that trump card is none other than the great 'Devil' of Hong Kong!
Heng Bingwen was dying to scream this to the world.
But he knew it would not be appropriate without getting his president's approval.
Ever since the incident in Hong Kong, he had realized that the great 'Devil' shared a special bond with his President.
As to how special this bond was, Heng Bingwen had personally witnessed with his own working eyes a few days ago...
He had seen what he would never be able to forget in this lifetime...
So on the matter to which party they should team up with to survive in the future, Heng Bingwen was more than clear on it.
If they teamed with Su enterprise, seven generations fo their families would be eradicated.
"A man should conduct himself with proper morals. If grandfather was alive today, he would definitely not want me to sell my principles just to save the company. Even if I manage to take Heng Limited Softwares to new heights, I want to do it exploiting proper means." Heng Bingwen said with an air of righteousness.
What principles?
He was only so confident because he knew the secret!
But that didn't stop him from acting like a righteous man who would put his principles above everything else.
Glancing at his son whose eyes were sparkling in youthful determination, Heng Huizhong felt a slight movement of his heart. He sighed.
Earlier he had been unable to see any talent in Heng Bingwen. However, after taking hold of the office he had been showing exceptional acumen in handling affairs.
A huge part of the reason behind was, of course, Mei Xiu's meticulous guidance.
But Heng Huizhong didn't know that.
All he saw was a twenty years old fresh youngster efficiently leading a company full of old foxes.
'Earlier I had assumed that Heng Bingwen is President Jing pawn. I assumed that he would exploit our company to benefit her Tang enterprise that was why I stood against him... However, until now he hadn't done anything of this sort. Could it be I was wrong all along?'
Heng Huizhong's heart was perplexed.
'Even if I manage to take Heng Limited Softwares to new heights, I want to do it exploiting proper means.'
Those words of his son struck him hard.
He felt like he had been weak to bow before the Su enterprise.
In fact, at first,
when Su Enterprise envoys had approached him, he had resisted.
But a slight threat from them had sent him to meet their demands in the past.
However, this son of his was fearless and even wanted to take the company to new heights using proper means.
Heng Huizhang smiled faintly. "Very well then. Chief Executive has made up your mind. What can I say?" Saying so, he turned to leave.
Heng Bingwen was puzzled. "... Are you not going to ask me to hide the evidence of our past corruption?"
Listening to his words, Heng Huizhong stopped.
His smile gradually disappearing.
