The Farming Livestreamer: I Don't Want to Inherit Billions!-Chapter 306: The Zhai Family’s Wrath

Zhai Family.

Old Sir Zhai sat at the head of the table with a somber expression, his hands clasped over his cane.

In front of him were Zhai Li’s parents, along with other family members.

"Dad, what should we do now?"

Mrs. Zhai’s face was streaked with tears; they couldn’t interfere at all!

The police had clearly stated that the matter had to be handled impartially!

"The Shen Family has really gone too far this time! Dad, we can’t let this slide!"

Mr. Zhai was also furious, not for his daughter’s sake but because the Zhai Group’s stocks were plummeting, causing him actual physical pain.

That’s money we’re talking about!

Old Sir Zhai remained silent, his expression extremely grave.

"It’s not just the Shen Family now; the Song Family is involved too!"

With a single sentence, both Mr. and Mrs. Zhai fell silent.

"Hmph!"

Old Sir Zhai snorted coldly through his nose, seeing they had nothing more to say.

"If you want to minimize the impact of this matter, then the only option is for Lili to go abroad."

"Dad!"

Mrs. Zhai cried out in shock.

With a sudden crash, Old Sir Zhai threw the cup in his hand to the ground, and the room instantly fell silent again.

"Do you think it’s just about going abroad?"

Old Sir Zhai’s cold, sharp gaze swept over both of them. "The Song Family isn’t budging, and the evidence is all there! Bribing examiners! Even attempting murder!"

"Dad... Lili is still young... she didn’t know... she really didn’t mean to harm anyone, really. Look at the dosage of her potion; at most, it would only cause food poisoning..."

"What, you want to cause a death? Even if the Zhai Family had power and influence, we couldn’t protect her if it came to that! We’d be bringing down the whole Zhai Family with her!"

"You better keep your mouth shut!"

Mr. Zhai scolded Mrs. Zhai, "Dad, we’ll do as you say. Whatever you decide, we’ll follow it!"

Old Sir Zhai’s chest heaved with anger, and it was a while before he calmed down.

He took a deep breath, "The Zhai Family will not get involved for now. We’ll wait for the police’s final verdict. Only when the Song Family has vented their anger will they let it go. In the next few days, arrange for Lili’s procedures to go abroad."

"Dad..."

"Alright, Dad, we’ll do as you say!"

Without another word, Mr. Zhai pulled Mrs. Zhai out of the room.

"Honey!"

"Enough, stop causing a scene! It’s all because you spoiled our daughter. Look at what a mess we’ve gotten into now!"

"What do you mean I spoiled her? You spoiled her even more than I did!"

Mrs. Zhai started crying again, "What do we do, honey? Lili is our daughter. How can you bear to let her be alone abroad..."

"What else can we do? We have to wait until things settle before we can think about bringing her back."

Mr. Zhai also had a headache. He was quite content with his daughter Zhai Li. Even without a son, he had no complaints, because his daughter was exceptional.

"Honey..."

"If you keep making a fuss, Dad will send you abroad with her!"

Mr. Zhai’s words immediately silenced Mrs. Zhai.

She bit her lip, wanting to go abroad to accompany her daughter, but her English wasn’t good enough!

"So that’s it for this matter?"

Mrs. Zhai felt unwilling; they had tacitly approved everything their daughter had done.

Who could have guessed the Song Family would kick up such a fuss over a supposed fiancée?

"Ah, I should have thought this through. Even if the Song Family doesn’t want this fiancée in the future, she still holds the title now!"

Mr. Zhai regretted not foreseeing this. "Lili targeting Chi Youyou was like slapping the Song Family in the face!"

"So... there’s no turning back on this matter..."

Mrs. Zhai’s face turned pale and she knew the answer when she saw Mr. Zhai light a cigarette.

"The Shen Family! This must be the Shen Family’s scheme! Honey, we can’t let this go!"

Mr. Zhai blew out a smoke ring and nodded, "You’re right. We can’t let this go! With the Shen Family, it’s all or nothing!"

Zhai Li waited at the police station for a long time but no one came to bail her out, not even a lawyer.

No law firm in the entire Imperial City dared to take the case.

The Song Family had given the word!

When had she, a pampered lady, ever encountered such a situation? Isolated and helpless, no one paid her any attention. She felt her nerves about to snap.

No, she had to hold out to the very end!

Imperial City University.

"Old Ma, do you yield or not?"

Mr. Feng watched the news immediately after class and exclaimed that the university had really struck gold this time!

The students, seeing his reaction, dared not linger in the classroom, afraid that Devil Feng would go mad and assign more homework.

Old Ma pursed his lips, "Old Feng, you’re mistaken; it’s not about yielding or not. I just raised reasonable doubts!"

"Doubts? Fine, say what you like!"

Mr. Feng was in such a good mood, he couldn’t be bothered to argue.

The International Agricultural Research Institute!

Chi Youyou was actually from the International Agricultural Research Institute~

"What are you doing?"

Mr. Feng was smiling as he walked, but was suddenly pulled aside, turning to see Old Ma grinning strangely, "Could you stop smiling like that, it’s creepy!"

"Old Feng, have you started cultivating the seeds Chi Youyou gave you?"

Old Ma pretended not to hear, smiling as he leaned in closer.

"What do you want! I’m telling you, don’t even think about it. They’re all mine!"

Hearing about the seeds made Mr. Feng immediately wary, yanking his hand back.

"See, now you’re being petty. We’re all on the same side, more people in the research means more strength!"

"Who’s on the same side with you!"

Mr. Feng felt his scalp tingle as he looked at Old Ma, sprinting toward his office.

So this old man has no shame!

Old Ma hurriedly followed; at this point, who cares about shame, agricultural development is the priority!

Meanwhile, Fang Yifei and Song Xingruo didn’t go back to the old house but found a restaurant to dine together.

The two sat in a private room, looking at each other.

"Feifei, are you okay?"

Finally, it was Song Xingruo who spoke first.

Fang Yifei shook her head, "We underestimated her."

Without needing clarification, Song Xingruo knew who "her" referred to, and nodded.

"But Feifei, don’t be too stressed. So what if it’s the International Agricultural Research Institute? To put it bluntly, it’s just farming!"

She glanced at Fang Yifei, continuing to comfort her, "Grandpa seems to like her a lot right now, so Feifei, just bear it for now. Once his novelty wears off, we’ll take care of her properly!"

"Ruoruo, I think Grandpa Song doesn’t just like her but also wants to curb the Fang Family’s dominance!"

Fang Yifei took a sip of her drink and sighed.

"It shouldn’t be, right? Grandpa should still treat the Fang Family well for Grandma’s sake. Are you overthinking this?"

"I hope it’s just me overthinking it. For now, don’t get involved in Zhai Li’s affairs. Let’s focus on securing the live stream!"

"Alright, don’t worry Feifei, you’re the only one suitable for this collaboration!"
