Chapter 970
970 Lock Fang qingci in the old house for a week
Fang qingci’s eyes flickered, and she looked at Fang shengtao with some doubt.
“Daddy, ran ran, why?”
Fang shengtao’s eyes narrowed, a cold glint flashing across his eyes.
“Why? Of course, it’s because the recent events are related to the issue of our Fang family’s business inheritance. Your grandfather is getting on in years. It’s time for him to choose a suitable successor to take over everything in the Fang family. Therefore, I’m determined to get the Fang family’s successor.”
Fang qingci’s heart skipped a beat.
She had actually overlooked this matter …
That’s right, grandpa’s health had been deteriorating this year, so he had more or less thought of choosing a successor.
However, even though Grandpa thought so, he did not say it out loud.
Many people understood grandfather’s meaning, so the people in the Fang family also gradually became more active.
However, why did she feel that there seemed to be a connection between her grandfather accepting a disciple and the matter of him being the successor?
She frowned slightly, looking at Fang shengtao as if she wanted to say something, but stopped.
“Daddy, there’s something about Yingluo that I don’t know if I should tell you.”
Fang shengtao looked at Fang qingci and scolded her in a low voice.
“If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hemming and hawing?”
“Father, actually, when we were in Ling city, grandfather took in a closed-door disciple. I don’t know if this last disciple of mine will affect the matter of the heir.” Fang qingci’s eyes flickered as she observed Fang shengtao’s face.
A cold glint flashed in Fang shengtao’s eyes. He clenched his fists and said in a low voice.
“Your grandfather actually accepted a closed-door disciple? How come I didn’t know about this?”
“Maybe Grandpa hasn’t decided when to make it public. Dad, does grandpa’s decision to take in a disciple have any impact on his successor?” Fang qingci naturally caught the flash of coldness in Fang shengtao’s eyes.
A trace of annoyance flashed in Fang shengtao’s eyes as he gritted his teeth and said with some resentment.
“How can there be no effect? Think about our Fang family’s businesses, many of them are related to jewelry and jadeite. If the Fang family’s heir didn’t know about jewelry and jadeite, how could he manage the Fang family well? Your grandfather has never been willing to teach his appraising skills to any of the children of the Fang family. He didn’t expect that after so many twists and turns, he would actually take in a disciple with a different surname? Your grandfather, what is he trying to do?”
“Father, could it be that grandfather wants Lan Xiao to inherit our Fang family business? “Wu Wu Wu Wu …” Fang qingci was halfway through her words when she suddenly realized that she had revealed some incredible information. She quickly covered her mouth.
“Lan Xiao? The disciple your grandfather mentioned is called Lan Xiao?” Fang shengtao grabbed Fang qingci’s wrist and asked in a low voice.
Fang qingci’s eyes immediately turned red, and she looked at Fang shengtao with great anxiety.
“Dad, Yingluo, my Grandpa once warned me not to disclose Lan Xiao’s matter to outsiders. Otherwise, if he finds out, he won’t let me off. So, I’m sorry, daddy, I really can’t say anymore Yingluo.”
Fang Yugu had indeed warned Fang qingci before.
At that time, she thought that her grandfather was waiting for Lan Xiao to come to Jin capital before he solemnly announced Lan Xiao’s existence to outsiders.
—
But now, after hearing Fang shengtao’s words, she understood her grandfather’s other meaning.
Grandfather didn’t want her to disclose Lan Xiao’s information. He was clearly protecting her in disguise …
It had to be known that this group of people in the Fang family could do anything crazy for the sake of the heir.
Sure enough, after hearing Fang qingci’s words, Fang shengtao’s face became even more unsightly.
He let go of Fang qingci’s wrist, clenched his fist, and hit the seat hard.
“Your grandfather, Yingluo, is too much. He didn’t nurture the children of the Fang family, and actually accepted a disciple with a different surname? Xiao Liu, tomorrow morning, immediately investigate that person called Lan Xiao.”
Assistant Liu, who was driving in front, heard this and responded in a low voice.
Fang qingci couldn’t help sneering.
A sinister dark glint flashed through her eyes.
Lan Xiao, from the moment you became grandfather’s disciple, did you know that all kinds of danger were approaching you?
Her father was not a simple character.
Her father was the kind of person who would do anything to achieve his goals.
Now, his father knew of the existence of such a person.
It was only a matter of time before he got rid of Lan Xiao.
She would like to see how long Lan Xiao could keep up with this.
—
Fang qingci followed Fang shengtao into Fang Yugu’s study. Fang Yugu threw a book at her and hit her in the face.
Fang qingci suddenly felt her vision go dark, and a stream of warmth flowed down her nose.
She cried out in shock and quickly covered her nose.
Bright red blood was flowing out of his palm.
Fang qingci’s breath stopped, and she was stunned.
Fang Yugu’s angry and vexed voice could be heard.
“You’ve only been quiet for a short while, and you’re already provoking her? I’ve warned you not to cause any trouble, why don’t you listen? Fang qingci, if you insist on doing things your own way and don’t know your place, then don’t blame me, Fang Yugu, for not caring about our family and banishing you from our Fang family genealogy.”
Fang qingci was shocked. Her eyes widened and she looked at Fang Yugu in disbelief.”Grandpa, how can you be so cruel to me? I’m your granddaughter, your biological granddaughter. Didn’t you love me the most in the past? How come you’re so cruel now?”
Fang Yugu’s eyes were bright as he stared at Fang qingci. He gritted his teeth and said,”You should know what she means to me, what Yingying means to the Fang family.”
Fang Yugu’s words not only shocked Fang qingci, but also Fang shengtao.
What did the old man mean?
Who was that ‘her’?
How could she be more important than his own granddaughter?
Fang qingci felt her blood boiling.
Those tears were like a broken dam, gushing out.
“Grandpa, how can you do this to me? How could you do this to the Fang family? I don’t want to understand what Lan Xiao means to you, or what she means to the Fang family.”
There was nothing she didn’t understand from her grandfather’s words. Lan Xiao was more important to him than anything else.
Did grandfather … Really have the intention to hand the Fang family over to Lan Xiao?
Fang qingci shook her head.
How could they let Lan Xiao, this b * tch, be in charge of the Fang family’s things?
She didn’t agree, she definitely didn’t agree.
Grandpa, Zhenzhen, you will regret this. You will definitely regret this, Zhenzhen! Fang qingci raised her sleeve and wiped the blood off her nose, shouting at her.
Fang Yugu frowned slightly and looked at Fang qingci with a serious expression.
He glanced at the worried Butler who was standing at the side.
“From today on, Fang qingci will be locked in the old house for a week. You can only let her out when she realizes her mistake. Otherwise, she’ll never be able to step out of the Fang family’s front door for the rest of her life.”
