Chapter 590: Chapter 590: A Chill To The Bone Chapter 590: Chapter 590: A Chill To The Bone Yun Long was also his grandson, and both of his grandsons had won. Hence, the first and second places both belonged to their Yun Family.
Logically speaking, regardless of who secured the first place, he should have been happy.
Yet, Yun Long was now selling his life for the Luo Family.
Therefore, even if Yun Long won, the glory would not belong to the Yun Family, which was why he hoped Yun Hu would win.
During the battle for third and fourth place, Yun Yaochuan couldn’t help himself and made a phone call to Yun Shaohua.
“Hello, Father…” Shaohua, sitting in the audience too, answered the phone with confusion, not understanding why the old patriarch would call him at this time.
Little did he know that Yun Yaochuan’s reason for calling him was nothing good.
“Shaohua, you’re also at the venue, right?” Yun Yaochuan asked kindly, although he had already seen Shaohua, it was just a deliberate question.
“Yes, I am here,” replied Shaohua.
Yun Yaochuan’s voice grew solemn and lowered in volume. “Since you’re also here, then you’ve seen that both Yun Long and Yun Hu have advanced to the final round. No matter who wins or loses between them, both the first and second places will be ours, the Yun Family’s, won’t they?”
Shaohua was even more puzzled about what he was trying to say, “You mean…”
Shaohua could only answer along with his words, choosing not to say anything extra.
Yun Yaochuan paused before saying, “So whether Yun Long takes the first place or Yun Hu does, it doesn’t matter. What’s important is that the ranks must fall to our Yun Family.
But now you also see that Yun Long is fighting for the Luo Family, not for our Yun Family.
If he wins, the champion’s honor will fall upon the Luo Family’s head. You know that our Yun Family hasn’t won a championship in many years, and this time we have finally got this opportunity, we must not miss it!
I am not being biased, I am doing this for the good of our Yun Family.
So, go tell Yun Long to intentionally lose later on, so the first place will definitely be ours, the Yun Family’s. Understand?”
Having heard the old patriarch’s words, Shaohua’s heart could be described as thoroughly chilled.
He just knew it, he knew there would be nothing good coming from him…
Just knew he would show such partiality, where only interests mattered, without caring for anything else.
He didn’t even consider that Yun Long, who had finally stood up and specifically come to participate in the competition, was here for what reason.
He wasn’t there to deliberately lose the fight, to give the honor to someone else.
He was there to seize the honor for himself.
But the old patriarch only cared about the interests of the Yun Family, not caring about Yun Long’s feelings at all.
Shaohua’s disappointment in his father had grown even more.
“Father, I’m afraid I cannot agree to your request. Although Yun Long is my son, I will absolutely not coerce him with the excuse of interests to do something against his will. So, I can’t fulfill your request.” After saying that, Shaohua decisively hung up the phone.
On the other end, Yun Yaochuan was nearly enraged to death!
What was Shaohua’s saying supposed to mean? Was he insinuating that his father was coercing him with interests?
Was he mocking him for forcing him to do something against his intentions?
He was making these requests for the good of the Yun Family, how could they be so selfish and self-serving?!
Yun Yaochuan was quite furious and planned to personally find Yun Long and let him intentionally lose to Yun Hu. But now he was a person of the Yun Family; if he went rashly, others would surely suspect his motives.
With no other option, Yun Yaochuan bribed a staff member in secret, asking him to deliver a note to Yun Long.
