When Tang Wenyi heard this, she was like a drowning person who had grabbed onto duckweed. Her eyes instantly reddened. At this point, does Old Master still want to help me? I thought that he really didn’t want me as his daughter. Now it seems that I was thinking too much. He still cares about our old relationship.
Just as she was about to say something, she saw the old man leave without looking back. He did not know what No. 3 was thinking, but when he saw her pitiful expression, he knew that she would probably say something shocking. Hence, he quickened his pace and left this troublesome place. Although he said that he would wait for her, he didn’t expect her to take it seriously.
At the end of the day, how could he have the patience to wait for her to utter nonsense? Fortunately, the phone call came in time, or he would not be able to hold it in! Thinking of this, he took a deep breath of fresh air outside. His serious mood lifted! If there was no one around, he would have hummed a tune.
He felt bad for those who were still stuck in the old residence.
Little did he know that he would regret this decision later.
Meanwhile, Tang Wenyi’s situation became more and more difficult. Just as the emotions of everyone were about to reach a critical point, she suddenly thought of a good idea. Hence, she said quickly, “I, I have an idea! Can everyone listen to me? I think there’s a high chance of success!”
As soon as they heard the word ‘success’, a hush fell over them. It was as if someone had pressed the pause button in the hall. Immediately, she saw these people watching her on the sidelines. They did not believe that Third Miss would be so smart. Based on her performance just now, she had probably come up with a rotten idea.
She’s looking so confident. Is Third Miss’s IQ really alright?
Just as they were secretly grousing, her uncle asked with interest, “Oh? What idea have you come up with? Do you mind letting us hear it? Perhaps we experienced people can give you some advice to perfect your plan. How about it?”
Of course, this was only on the surface. He could not wait for Third Miss to fall even more miserably.
“I-I can’t tell you about this for the time being. I think I’ll tell you after the plan succeeds. Besides, I have something to ask of you, Uncle. I need connections and status to succeed. So, Uncle, can you give me a position in the company? Any position is fine as long as I’m in charge!”
There was another reason for not telling him…
She secretly glanced at her sisters. If they did something midway, she wouldn’t even have a place to cry! Didn’t she fail the previous few times because someone caused trouble? She felt that this time, as long as she was prepared, she would definitely succeed! At that time, she would definitely win the old man’s favor again!
Tang Yajing raised her eyebrows and thought to herself, Why are you so confident? Why are you being so mysterious? Do you think I don’t know what you’re up to?
But even so, she wouldn’t take her third sister seriously. After all, she never thought that this person would do anything marvelous. As for the bad things her third sister did, she could say a lot about her dark history. Only those people who didn’t know the inside story would be deceived by her words now.
“You want to enter the company?”
Uncle sized up No. 3 suspiciously. He felt that this person wanted to land a position without working for it. Everyone present had worked hard for their positions, but his niece expected a big official position to be given to her on a platter. On what basis? Wasn’t this telling others openly that Tang Wenyi got in through the back door?
If that happened, who would be willing to listen to her? Moreover, with her personality, she might cause a mess in the company. Although his other nieces had more or less pulled strings, they were capable of quelling people’s dissent. But how could Tang Wenyi convince everyone?
“You should know, right? If you want a position, you have to get it yourself. Firstly, you didn’t contribute to the family, and secondly, your business capability isn’t strong enough. I can’t help you even if I want to.”
When Tang Wenyi heard this, she looked crestfallen. She said awkwardly, “But if my plan were to succeed, I have to have a position. Otherwise, no matter how good my ideas are, I won’t be able to execute them.”
Good ideas?
This almost made the others laugh.
The corners of her uncle’s eyes twitched unconsciously. No wonder No. 5 said that No. 3 was confident. Just as she said, there was probably no one else in the capital who was as thick-skinned as her. He shrugged helplessly and said, “The company is closely related to the family. This is not a place for you to play around. I think you should stay at home. It’s not like the Tang family can’t afford to raise an idle person like you.”
“Uncle! I also want to put my skills to use. If I don’t take the initiative, you won’t be able to see my active performance in this lifetime! I’m really not inferior to the other sisters. As long as you’re willing to give me a chance, I’ll definitely succeed…”
Seeing that Tang Wenyi was determined, Tang Yajing seemed to have thought of something and said, “Third Sister, if you want something, you have to pay the price. You want a position without giving anything. Are you dreaming?”
This sentence alerted Tang Nishang, who had been very focused.
She quickly said, “Why don’t you wager your inheritance, Third Sister? This is the only thing you can offer now. If you’re betting everything on this, we won’t say no. This way, we can see your determination. We can try to help you persuade Uncle.”
“Third Sister, you won’t reject the offer, right? You’ve already turned Old Master down once. If you won’t fork out five million yuan, you can at least stake your inheritance, right? Is your courage gone? Show us your determination to go against Lu Ming Corporation as you’ve mentioned. Don’t let us look down on you.”
Tang Wanxi chimed in.
Just as she was about to ask her fourth sister to say something too, she saw that she had taken out her phone and started playing mahjong again, so she gave up.
With the huge temptation and this provocation, it was difficult for Tang Wenyi not to fall for it.
Hence, after hesitating for a few seconds, she said decisively, “Alright! I agree! Let’s bet on the outcome!”
Oh my, give up the inheritance? So serious?
This made everyone who already suspected that there was something wrong with her head even more certain of their thoughts. Back then, the old master probably felt that it was too embarrassing to have a daughter with a low IQ, so he hid this matter from us, right? In the end, he could not hide it anymore today.
The more they thought about it, the more they felt that it was possible.
However, they were completely unaware that their guess was contrary to the truth! As for the four Tang sisters who knew the truth, they looked at each other and couldn’t help but smile.
