Chapter 430 - 421: Shen Family Head, Zhang Lingxuan’s Failure

Chapter 430: Chapter 421: Shen Family Head, Zhang Lingxuan’s Failure

Zhang Lingxuan shivered uncontrollably as he squatted on the ground, not daring to doubt the truth of the statement.

"No, Grandpa, I know..."

The door of the private room was once again pushed open.

Seeing the newcomer, Zhang Lingxuan’s eyes lit up at once.

Grandpa may be partial to Xu Ling’an, but her parents would definitely support her unconditionally.

"Dad, Mom, please save me, I’m in so much pain, I’ve lost so much blood, I feel like I’m about to faint!"

Lin Yi also felt like she was about to faint.

What on earth is going on?

Why is there a knife in her daughter’s hand? And so much blood on the floor?

Not caring about anyone else in the private room, Lin Yi turned and shouted at her husband, "Quick, call the emergency services, didn’t you hear Xuanxuan say she’s about to faint?"

Zhang Anfeng was calmer than his wife, but at the moment he was also stunned by the faces in the private room, leaving him momentarily unable to react. He instinctively reached for his phone upon hearing the noise.

Before he could unlock it, he felt something slip from his hand.

"You..."

Shen Weizhi, who snatched the phone, said, "Shut up."

Completely oblivious to the situation, the issue hasn’t been resolved yet, how can the culprit be allowed to leave.

One must learn from the Family Head, offering a succinct truth in two words.

Faced with emotionless eyes, Zhang Anfeng instinctively closed his mouth.

Zhang Lingzhou, who followed behind his parents: "..."

Why did he come home today? Why did he have to come back to change clothes?

Lin Yi wanted to speak but was silenced by a glare from the old master.

The old master’s authority was immense, and she instinctively didn’t dare to open her mouth.

Moreover, she finally noticed the heavy atmosphere in the private room, almost palpable, and in the end, she only dared to take out a handkerchief from her bag to wrap around her daughter’s hand.

In the midst of the silence, Zhang Nachuan spoke in a deep voice, "Miss Jiang, what’s your plan?"

The recently entered family of three instinctively pricked up their ears at the sound.

There was a sense that the words they were about to hear would be very important.

"It’s simple. Collaborating with outsiders to scheme and harm your blood relatives is unfilial, unrighteous, and devoid of integrity, a disgrace to the family." The light words weighed heavily on everyone’s hearts, "At the very least, expel her from the family, revoke all inheritance rights. As for compensation, use her current total assets as compensation, so she remembers it firmly for the rest of her life. It’s better not to have bad intentions as a person."

If you care so much about your inheritance and your possessions that you’re afraid of losing, then just give them all up.

Once they’re gone, there’s no need to care about them anymore.

Everyone: "..."

Simple, is this called simple?

They were about to forget what the word simple even meant!

Moreover, this punishment was akin to ripping Zhang Lingxuan’s heart out because she would have to give up what mattered most to her in life, which was as good as killing her!

"No, I don’t want it!"

Jiang Lingxi pretended not to hear the unwilling growl, "Old Master, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Zhang Nachuan looked at his granddaughter, whose eyes were blood-red, not even caring about the wound on her hand, then at Shen Yunqing, who stood in for Jiang Lingxi, and the strong-willed young people in uniform behind him.

He hadn’t forgotten what those people called Shen Yunqing.

Family Head.

What kind of person is qualified to be called the Family Head?

As far as he knew, only those ancient, flourished families who have thrived for a thousand years through countless changes and still persist would retain such an ancient title till today.

Not to mention the surname Shen.

So it’s that Shen!

Hundreds of years ago, there was the brilliant Prime Minister Shen, who was almost severed, but then another family member of the Shen Family, a foster child taken in by that prime minister, helped them prosper again, even surpassing previous achievements.

And now there’s another Shen Yunqing!

Even if he had enough prestige, he knew that if it were the Shen Family, they wouldn’t hold back out of concern for him.

The only breakthrough was somehow Jiang Lingxi.

This was a dead-end!

"Miss Jiang..."

Jiang Lingxi didn’t wait for him to finish, "This matter is non-negotiable."

If it weren’t for her being miles away, there wouldn’t have been a chance for Shen Yunqing to step in.

If she had acted, Zhang Lingxuan’s fate would have been worse, without releasing the pent-up anger that’s been building inside.

By now, Zhang Anfeng and Lin Yi, the last to arrive, roughly understood the whole story.

Lin Yi was so angry that she cried, enraged that her daughter acted without informing her, and now the situation blew up, alerting everyone they should and shouldn’t have. Now she didn’t know how to smooth things over.

Zhang Anfeng subtly exchanged glances with Chen Rui.

He remembered, a while ago, his daughter mentioned to him her plan to collaborate with Chen Rui. But never did he expect, it was such a collaboration!

The key was if you succeed, that would be one thing, but now, with the mess made, he’s likely to take the fall.

Zhang Lingzhou, meanwhile, looked at his daring sister and exclaimed internally, what a move!

Is this really his ambitious and resourceful sister?

What a pointless, backward stunt she’s pulled!

Even as her brother, now he didn’t dare to plead for her.

He couldn’t hide fast enough.

"Alright," Zhang Nachuan let out a bitter laugh, closed his eyes, and when he reopened them, tears glinted momentarily, and he made up his mind to say, "Let’s do as Miss Jiang said."

Lin Yi stopped crying, "Old Master, how can you listen to an outsider..."

"Shut your mouth, see the ’good’ daughter you raised!" Zhang Nachuan glared at his daughter-in-law, then looked at his son, "Do you have any objections?"

Zhang Anfeng’s shoulders shrank under his father’s gaze, "No, none, I’ll listen to Dad and to Miss Jiang."

At worst, after the old master’s passing, he’d bring her back. Some property could go over, ensuring her prosperity, but likely not as much as a son.

These years under the old master’s watch, she would have to endure some grievances, plus her son-in-law was there, she wouldn’t live too poorly.

Shen Yunqing could easily see what Zhang Anfeng was plotting and felt sarcastically amused.

Indeed, in the next second, he heard Your Majesty on the phone saying, "Please, Old Master, make it ’permanent’ when expelling the unfilial child, and if any descendant follows in her footsteps, they will automatically lose all inheritance rights."

Zhang Nachuan, still immersed in melancholy, only nodded upon hearing, without much thought.

Zhang Anfeng’s face turned, even glancing around. He suspected that Jiang Lingxi on the phone had surveillance in this box.

Otherwise, how did she know what he was thinking!

Zhang Lingxuan finally couldn’t bear it, possibly due to excessive blood loss, and rolled her eyes, fainting.

Lin Yi exclaimed, hurriedly pulling her phone from her bag to call for emergency aid.

No one stopped her this time, decisions had been made, and things settled down.

With so many witnesses present, Zhang Nachuan, as long as he valued his reputation, wouldn’t go back on his word to regain An’an as a granddaughter.

Nor did Jiang Lingxi intend for Zhang Lingxuan to die, since it was Shen Yunqing who harmed her, and sometimes living could be harsher than dying.

"The director seems to be calling for filming, Yunqing, the rest is up to you."

"Alright," Shen Yunqing replied warmly, "Focus on filming, I’ll handle the next parts."

Everyone: "..."

You still have the nerve to be filming!

After the emergency call, not long after, the ambulance arrived promptly.

Zhang Lingxuan was lifted onto a stretcher and taken to the ambulance, with Lin Yi accompanying her. Watching his father, who seemed to have aged several more years suddenly, Zhang Anfeng approached, about to say something, but was waved away, "I don’t want to see you now, you get out too!"

Zhang Lingzhou had quietly slipped away; he needed to calm down and allow his nervousness to digest the day’s events.

Zhang Nachuan paid him no mind, turning to look at his granddaughter.

Xu Ling’an spoke before he could, "I want to stay with Grandma tonight, and you should rest early too."

Zhang Nachuan reached out, wanting to touch his granddaughter’s head like before.

But seeing the step-back motion she made, he swallowed back his grief and withdrew his hand.

"Alright, Grandpa listens to An’an."

But anyone would know, he wouldn’t close his eyes at all tonight.

As for the Chen brothers, who were now almost invisible, he didn’t even spare them a glance, finding them distasteful.

Zhang Nachuan left with a sense of loss, followed by Shen Yunqing and taking Xu Ling’an away.

Before long, only Chen Rui and Chen Cheng were left in the large private room.

Chen Cheng finally dared to come out from behind the decoratively useless screen, his face showing the relief of survival after disaster, "Luckily, I didn’t have time to do anything to Xu Ling’an, that little girl. Brother, did we just dodge a bullet?"

Chen Rui: "..." He sighed exasperatedly before angrily replying, "Do you have nothing but grass in your head? You brainless fool!"

Even if Zhang Old Master had come over and given them a slap or kicked them, or if that Mister Shen had cut him with a knife, it would’ve been better than being ignored.

Zhang Lingxuan had already paid such a high price for today’s incident, how could Zhang Old Master and that Shen person let him off so easily?

A lucky escape? More like retribution is coming!
