Supreme Heir Son-in-law-Chapter 1150 - 1149: Equity

"Your grandfather often taught you to treat others politely, but how do you really treat your mother? Your mother has been in this family for more than ten years, and I’ve seen that she’s been good to you. But you, why are you so ungrateful and always against her? Look at how upset you’ve made her."

Xiao Keyi laughed when she heard this. Her father, no wonder Grandpa criticized him, was blind and saw nothing, and still thought this stepmother was good.

What’s so good about her? Daring to speak about her this way in front of Father, and always planning for her son in front of Father, not sparing a thought for herself. Yet Father thinks this stepmother treats her well, which is really laughable.

"If she truly cared for me, she would have let me train in the company long ago, but she’s constantly been blocking me, just to plan for her son. Dad, I really think you’re blind, not seeing anything. No wonder Grandpa said that about you. If you come to my room to say these things again, you might as well not come in the future."

After Xiao Keyi finished speaking, she hugged her arms and looked at Ye Jingli: "No matter how much you plan for your son, it’s useless. My shares are second only to Grandpa’s, and even if Grandpa retires, the shares will be transferred to me."

After Xiao Keyi finished speaking, she looked at the two coldly: "Do you want to leave by yourselves, or do you need me to see you out?"

Li Bai shouted angrily when he heard this: "How do you speak to your father? I’m still your dad, and you’re driving me away. And about those shares, kids shouldn’t bring up shares."

Li Bai was indeed guilty. If his father really transferred shares to Xiao Keyi, he might not have a say in the company anymore, so talking about shares was absolutely a no-go now.

"Oh, right, Dad, I have the most shares in the branch company, so whatever I appoint, even a president, is none of your business."

Ye Jingli couldn’t understand shares and such: "Isn’t it just some shares? What’s so great about them? Above shares, your dad is still your dad, with no respect for the elderly and care for the young—really not as sensible as my son."

"Who are you saying is not sensible?"

A deep voice came in from outside the door, and the three turned their heads. Xiao Keyi smiled, but Li Bai’s face turned pale, and Ye Jingli quickly put on a meek demeanor, as if suddenly vulnerable.

Old Master Xiao, leaning on his cane, stomped on the ground sharply, and that stomp seemed to strike into Li Bai and Ye Jingli’s hearts. They had to respect Old Master Xiao, as he still ruled the Xiao Family.

"I see you’re becoming more lawless. I appointed Yiyi to handle the branch company’s matters, yet now someone’s attacking my Yiyi, not seeing their place? If that’s the case, then get out of the house quickly."

Ye Jingli felt a chill at these words and hurriedly knelt down: "Old Master, please hear my explanation, things aren’t like this at all. It was Yiyi who brought up shares first, forcing shares over her father, so I couldn’t help but speak up. Besides, Yiyi has been too unruly recently, often provoking me and her father. We meant to educate her out of kindness, but we didn’t expect her to be so disobedient."

Just after Ye Jingli finished speaking, Li Bai’s face changed: "Shut up, who told you to speak!"

Old Master Xiao doted on Xiao Keyi the most, so regardless of Ye Jingli’s complaints, even if Li Bai complained, he faced criticism.

Plus, the shares matter was indeed settled. He just didn’t want to mention it, but Ye Jingli brought it up, embarrassing him. Sure enough, Old Master Xiao sneered upon hearing this.

"Li Bai, I told you before, not to marry this ignorant woman, yet you did, and now the house is a mess you’re eager to fix. Furthermore, I informed you about Yiyi’s shares long ago. She’ll take over your position, and as for that child of yours, I’ve never acknowledged him as my grandson."

"As long as I’m alive, that child has no qualification to enter my Xiao Group. If you have any ill intentions, I’d advise you to stop now. You won’t be the chairman for long."

Li Bai’s face turned pale upon hearing this, surprised at how much the Old Master defended Yiyi, despite Yu’er also being his child.

Is the Old Master truly so heartless as not to leave anything for his grandson?

"Keyu is your only grandson; you can’t be so biased. Moreover, no matter how capable Yiyi is, she’s still just a girl. She’ll marry one day, and when she does, won’t the Xiao Group be someone else’s? Father, please reconsider."

Ye Jingli felt aggrieved hearing this. Both were grandsons, why didn’t Old Master Xiao recognize her son? She quickly protested.

Li Bai, on the other hand, merely sighed. The Old Master disliked Ye Jingli the most, yet she kept challenging him.

"So what if Yiyi’s a girl? Can’t her fiancé be a live-in son-in-law? And don’t mention any grandson to me, I’ve never acknowledged him. And if you don’t want to stay in the Xiao Family, get out soon. This house won’t be under your control, and even if I wanted to give Xiao Group away, it wouldn’t be to you."

Ye Jingli still wanted to say something, but Li Bai pinched her arm and told her to shut up.

"Dad, although what you said has reasons, today Yiyi did something unbelievable. She directly replaced the branch company’s president with some countryside lad who can’t read. That’s really unreasonable, completely acting on impulse. If the branch is handed to that lad, it will surely be over."

Li Bai knew that continued criticism of Yiyi following Ye Jingli’s example would not only fail but might result in him being directly removed as chairman. He had to focus on the facts. Sure enough, the Old Master’s eyebrows furrowed upon hearing this.

"Yiyi, what happened exactly? Tell Grandpa about it, did you not think it through at the time? Whatever the case, Grandpa is here for you."

Seeing the Old Master being so indulgent and speaking so gently to Xiao Keyi, Ye Jingli grew increasingly jealous.

Her own son was also this Old Master’s grandson, yet the Old Master not only didn’t want to see her son but even when her son tried to please him, wouldn’t raise his eyebrows and kept mocking him.
