“Grandmother,” Li Zhongjin said unwillingly, “People will grow up eventually. You can’t look at me with the same eyes as before.”

“That’s right. After you let him take charge for three days, you will see him in a new light.”

Zhen Yishu felt a little awkward when the old lady spoke so bluntly about her son. She was even a little unhappy, but she couldn’t flare up. “Mom, Zhongjin used to be a little playful, but in the past six months, he has been working for his father. Those bad habits have changed. Even his father said that this child has improved a lot…”

“Then can’t you just let him continue helping his father?” Old Lady Zhen’s att.i.tude showed that she was clearly displeased.

“What Zhongjin’s father meant was that the Zhen family is in trouble now and needs manpower. After all, he is your grandson and Yiping’s nephew. He’s more useful in the company than those outsiders, right?”

Zhen Yishu did not give up and continued, “Besides, his father and 1 are not completely selfless. How can the Li family’s company compare to Zhen Group? Letting Zhongjin come to the group to learn and gain more experience would be beneficial to the Li family’s development when he returns in the future.”

“It’s a good thing to gain experience, but there’s no need to come to the company.”

Old Lady Zhen said earnestly, “Yishu, you’ve mentioned this matter many times, and I’ve explained it to you many times.”

“But if Hanyu can enter the company, why can’t Zhongjin?”

Zhen Yishu’s eyes flickered. “Mom, Zhongjin and Hanyu are both your grandsons. Even if you can’t be fair, you can’t be so biased, right? No matter what, you have to help me talk to Yiping…”

The old lady looked at her daughter and sighed silently.

Back then, because of her second daughter’s disappearance, she and her husband had transferred all their love to their eldest daughter instead. However, because of this, she became particularly spoiled and self-righteous. She would not listen to advice, and she was also soft-eared.

A few years ago, when Zhen Yiping was seriously ill and hospitalized, the Zhen family and various forces in the group fought openly and secretly, causing the group to be in a foul mood. The Li family had other thoughts and wanted Li Zhongjin to come to the group to seek a position.

After being rejected by Zhen Yiping and the old lady, they were quiet for a while when they saw the company slowly returning to normal.

However, ever since Shen Hanyu landed in the company this year, they had started to become restless again.

Zhen Yishu had mentioned it more than once in front of Old Lady Zhen. “They’re both your grandsons. Why are you favoring one over the other? If Hanyu can become the company’s manager, why can’t Zhongjin?”

At first, the old lady tried to persuade Zhen Yishu to give up on this unrealistic idea.

However, she did not expect that now that Zhen Yiping was hospitalized again and the company was in trouble, the Li family would persuade Zhen Yishu to put all her eggs in one basket and bring up the previous cooperation again.

She kept saying that she wanted Li Zhongjin to help the Zhen family, but what could Li Zhongjin even do?

Who wouldn’t be able to see through the Li family’s complicated schemes?

“Yishu, you should know very well that Zhongjin is not Hanyu, nor can he be Hanyu.”

Old Lady Zhen was a little tired and did not want to dwell on this topic anymore. She said coldly, Also, go back and tell the Li family not to have any ideas that they shouldn’t have. Even if Yiping is seriously ill, we would never let outsiders handle the Zhen family’s business.”

“Mom, how are we outsiders? Am 1 not your daughter now that I’m married? It’s not that I want to say this, but my son is also your grandson. What’s with your att.i.tude toward Hanyu and Zhongjin?”

Zhen Yishu felt wronged and dissatisfied. “You’re always like this. You were always biased toward Yixin. I admit that Hanyu is much more outstanding than Zhongjin, but my son is also working hard. Why do you always hold onto his past? People say that a prodigal son wouldn’t change his money when he returns. Didn’t Zhongjin turn over a new leaf? Was he wrong for this? Why are you always prejudiced against him and unwilling to give him a chance…”

Shen Hanyu and the other two had been listening quietly outside the door, but Zhen Zhu couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“First of all, Cousin Hanyu is not just much better than your son, but the difference is like heaven and earth. He is simply unreachable.”

Zhen Zhu strode into the room and glanced coldly at Zhen Yishu and Li Zhongjin. “Secondly, Zhen Group is not a market where anyone can enter as they please. People like Li Zhongjin aren’t qualified at all.”

Li Zhongjin and Zhen Yishu’s expressions changed.

Li Zhongjin’s innocent face instantly turned red when he was confronted like this. “Zhen Zhu, who do you think you are? What makes you think you have the right to criticize me!”

“Ha, what a rare guest. You’re still willing to come back at this time.”

Zhen Yishu’s tone was sharp and sarcastic. “You said that Zhongjin isn’t qualified to go to the corporation, but are you? You colluded with Zhen Chongming and betrayed the company. You didn’t know what was good for you. You treated your father as your enemy for so many years and didn’t even show him any mercy. If something happened to you, wouldn’t you have to rely on your father to save you? All that, and you still have the face to talk about Zhongjin. Think about what you have done all these years. How many times will you let down the Zhen family, your father, and your grandmother?”

In the past, whenever Zhen Yishu mentioned “your father” in front of Zhen Zhu, the latter would immediately explode in anger and turn hostile on the spot.

However, at this moment, Zhen Zhu was very calm.

“You’re right. I’ve indeed let down the Zhen family, my father, and my grandmother.”

She looked straight at Zhen Yishu. “But I won’t do it in the future.”

“You make it sound so easy.”

Zhen Yishu scoffed in disdain. “It’s good enough that you haven’t destroyed the Zhen family and angered your father to death.”

Zhen Zhu ignored her. Her gaze fell on the shocked old lady and her expression softened.

“In the future, I will do my best to make up for my past mistakes.”

She seemed to be making a promise to both the old lady and herself as she said word byword, “Grandma, don’t worry. I’ll definitely protect the Zhen family.”

“Hahaha!”

Li Zhongjin seemed to have heard the biggest joke. “You? Protect the Zhen family? Zhen Zhu, you’re really funny…”

At present, the Zhen family was at the center of the storm. The news of Zhen Zhu taking over as the chairman of the group in the afternoon had not been announced to the public, so outsiders did not know.

He thought that she was fantasizing now and could not stop laughing.

Zhen Zhu looked at him coldly. “I don’t know if I’m being delusional, but what I do know is that you won’t be able to enter the corporation.”

“The old lady and your father haven’t said anything. What makes you think you have the right to make a decision?”

Zhen Yishu pursed her lips and said mockingly, “Those who know your temper will think that you’re a blabbermouth who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Those who don’t know better will think that you’re the group’s chairman.”

“She does have the right to make decisions.”

Shen Hanyu walked in slowly and said, “From today onward, Zhen Zhu is the group’s chairman.”

Seeing him and Sang Qianqian walk in together, Zhen Yishu and Li Zhongjin were even more surprised..
