Jiang Min suddenly understood. âI know, he must have done this for his son!â
Tan Rouâs interest was piqued. âHow old is his son?â
A trace of anger appeared on Jiang Minâs face. âHis son is studying abroad. This year is the last half of the year, and heâll be returning soon. Last year, my second uncle told my father that he wanted my cousin to go to the company for an internship after graduation. My father didnât agree and scolded my second uncle.â
âWhy?â Tan Rou asked.
âMy father is a strict person. When my brother and I were young, as long as we made a mistake, we would be punished by him, so he wouldnât allow anyone to make a mistake.â Jiang Min sighed and said, âBut my second uncle is different. He and my second aunt only gave birth to my cousin when he was in his thirties. Therefore, he dotes on my cousin very much, causing my cousin to often make mistakes.â
Tan Rou understood. âDoes your father dislike your cousin?â
Jiang Min nodded and said, âMy cousin is not good at anything. His grades in the country have always been very poor. After graduating from high school, my second uncle found him a random school and spent money to get him into it. However, he still didnât study hard in university. Every day, he was either racing or drinking.â
Tan Rou could predict what would happen next. âDid he get into an accident?â
Jiang Min smiled helplessly. âHe almost killed someone with his car. When the news reached the country, Second Uncle blocked the news and did not let my father know. It was my dadâs business partner who told him. When my dad found out, he was very angry and insisted on calling my cousin back.â
âAccording to your second uncleâs doting personality, he probably wonât let your cousin come back.â Tan Rou said.
âYouâre right. My second uncle and my dad had a big fight, saying that they donât need my dad to care about their family matters in the future. My dad was so angry that he almost hit my second uncle.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tan Rou nodded slightly. âYour father is right to disagree. If someone like your cousin enters the company, it will only bring negative effects to the company.â
Jiang Minâs expression was very ugly. âMy eldest Brother has become a university teacher, and he wonât be returning to the company in the future. Thatâs why my dad called me back to inherit the familyâs company. If anything happens to me, Second Uncleâs family will inherit the company.
âIf this matter is exposed, then the person in charge will definitely not be able to escape legal punishment. Your second uncle already has one foot in this trap and heâs trying to drag you along. It can be seen that he is very scheming.â Tan Rou frowned slightly.
âMy second uncle is really a good father. He put in a lot of effort for his child to inherit the family business,â Jiang Min sneered.
âPeople are selfish. Who doesnât want their children to live a better life?â Tan Rou said helplessly.
Jiang Min suddenly felt wronged. âEverything that our family has was built by my parents when they were young. What does it have to do with my second uncle? If he wants my family business to be left to his son, then he can earn money himself.â
Tan Rou comforted him. âYouâve just taken over this project. Thereâs still time. As long as you report this to your father, heâll definitely know what to do.â
âMy dad is extremely kind to my second uncle. Unfortunately, my second uncle doesnât know how to be grateful.â Jiang Minâs eyes became fierce. âIn that case, donât blame me for being impolite.â
Jiang Min stopped the construction workers and asked them to inspect the entire building to see if there were any weak spots.
Tan Rou also followed behind and watched. From time to time, she would share what happened here with Zhuang Liu. âFortunately, your Second Uncle and Third Uncle didnât use this method to deal with you back then.â
Zhuang Liu didnât know whether to laugh or cry. âMy second and third uncles cherish their lives very much. They wouldnât put themselves in jail for someone else.â
âLooks like they arenât good fathers!â Tan Rou sighed.
As she spoke, Jiang Min walked over. When she saw Tan Rou on the phone, she stood at the side and waited for a while.
âSenior Jiang, whatâs the matter?â Tan Rou hurriedly hung up the phone and asked.
Jiang Min pursed her lips. âI have to wait for a while before telling my dad about this. I want to settle this matter first and show my dad that Iâm capable of working for the company.â
âI also think Senior Jiang can solve the problem,â Tan Rou said gratefully.
Jiang Min looked at Tan Rou. âSo I need you to do me a favor.â
