Chapter 296: Chapter 296 The New Family Head

Han Chengye snorted coldly, "Whether I lied or not, you’ll know once you hear what grandma has to say."

No sooner had his voice fallen than Han Yaru was seen pushing a wheelchair out. Astonishingly, sitting in the wheelchair was none other than Madam Han!

At this moment, Madam Han’s hands were trembling, and her eyes looked vacant; she was evidently severely ill.

Han Jingting exclaimed in surprise, "Grandma, what’s happened to you? How did you suddenly become like this?!"

Han Chengye snorted coldly, "We all saw that the last person Grandma met with yesterday was Chen Xuan."

"Not long after Chen Xuan left, Grandma had a stroke."

"You should be asking your dear husband why Grandma turned out like this!"

Han Jingting frowned, "What do you mean by that!"

Han Chengye snorted coldly, "What else could I mean? In my opinion, Grandma had a stroke from the stress Chen Xuan caused her! Otherwise, why would she have a stroke out of the blue?"

Han Jingting was livid, "Nonsense! Grandma was fine when Chen Xuan left, how could it have anything to do with him!"

"Besides, don’t forget that it was Chen Xuan who saved Grandma’s life in the first place; how could he possibly intend to upset her!"

Han Chengye sneered, "How should I know? You should be asking your husband that question!"

"You..."

In fact, at this moment, the members of the Han Family were also completely baffled.

They had come for a meeting, but were unexpectedly greeted with the news of the old lady’s stroke, and currently, they didn’t know whom to believe.

Just then, Chen Xuan stepped forward, "No matter why Grandma had the stroke, it doesn’t matter; I will cure her!"

With Chen Xuan’s current medical expertise, curing a stroke was nothing short of simple!

As he spoke, Chen Xuan began to walk toward the old lady.

However, before Chen Xuan could reach her, Madam Han caught sight of him and a look of terror appeared on her face; she began to scream hysterically, "Ghost! A ghost! Get away! Get away from me!!"

Han Chengye hurriedly stepped in front of Chen Xuan.

"You all saw it for yourselves, didn’t you? Grandma got terrified the moment she saw Chen Xuan. Doesn’t that prove enough!" Han Chengye purposefully stirred the pot.

The members of the Han Family believed it to be true.

"Chen Xuan, not only did you cause Grandma to have a stroke, but now you even dare to harm her; what exactly is your intention!"

Chen Xuan’s eyes narrowed; he increasingly felt that there was something fishy about Madam Han’s stroke!

"I’ve never upset Grandma; I will definitely cure her illness!"

Saying this, Chen Xuan took a step forward, intending to forcefully examine Madam Han’s pulse.

But before he could reach out, Madam Han saw him and starting screaming and crying out in fear, tumbling down from the wheelchair and desperately crawling into the house!

This scene left the members of the Han Family in a state of shock.

Han Chengye immediately blocked the way.

"You scoundrel won’t leave Grandma alone! Guards, what are you waiting for? Kick this harmful criminal out!"

At Han Chengye’s command, the Han Family bodyguards immediately swarmed and surrounded Chen Xuan in the middle.

Chen Xuan’s gaze was icy cold.

Madam Han’s illness was most peculiar, and he was determined to examine her pulse today to get to the bottom of this!

Chen Xuan ignored the bodyguards and continued to approach Madam Han.

At that moment, the Han Family bodyguards drew their guns and aimed directly at him.

The members of the Han Family were also filled with anger.

"Chen Xuan, what are you trying to do!"

"You frightened Grandma into this state, yet you still dare to mess around!"

"Grandma is so afraid of you; I think her illness is obviously caused by your frightening her!"

Suddenly, Chen Xuan became the target of everyone’s suspicion.

Madam Han was also frightened, curling up on the ground, trembling all over, and watching Chen Xuan cry out continuously.

Han Jingting really couldn’t stand it any longer and stepped forward to persuade, "Chen Xuan, let’s just call it quits for today..."

Chen Xuan felt helpless. He knew it was going to be difficult to handle the situation today. Even if he diagnosed the illness, the Han Family would surely obstruct him at every turn.

Rather than that, it would be easier to find an opportunity to treat her when Madam Han was alone.

Chen Xuan had no choice but to give up, after which he and Han Jingting were driven out of the old mansion and waited outside the main gate.

A moment later, Han Chengye took out a stack of documents from his pocket.

"These are the documents I found on Grandma’s desk, her last will and testament, determining the identification of the next Han Family Patriarch!"

"This was also the big announcement Grandma originally intended to make today!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar among the crowd.

The identification of the Family Head was a top priority for the entire Han Family!

"Chengye, who did Grandma identify as the next Family Head?" someone asked.

Han Chengye gave a faint smile, "Such an important matter should be announced by the board of directors."

Han Chengye then handed the will to the people from the Han Corporation board of directors.

After briefly checking the will to ensure its authenticity, the board members opened it and announced, "The next Han Family Patriarch personally identified by Grandma is..."

"Han Chengye!"

Upon hearing this, many of the Han Family members cheered.

For them, Han Chengye, someone who would allow them a chance for personal gain, was the best choice for Family Head!

The board of directors continued, "This will is the final one. Once the position of Family Head is determined, it will never be altered!"

"From today onwards, Han Chengye is the new Han Family Patriarch!"

Hearing this, Han Chengye’s face could hardly hide his excitement.

He had been waiting for this day for far too long!

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the old mansion.

Ding Lijuan had prepared herself to cheer at the announcement of the next Family Head.

But when she heard that the chosen one was Han Chengye instead of Han Jingting, her face instantly fell.

"What’s going on? Didn’t you say Jingting would be the next Family Head? Were those all lies?"

"I always said you two were unreliable. Such a waste of emotion!"

With that, Ding Lijuan, accompanied by Han Bowwen, left without looking back.

They had only come here for a meal, but they were not even allowed to enter, didn’t get to eat, and had only received a hollow joy, which was utterly discouraging.

Han Jingting, hearing the confirmation of Han Chengye as the Family Head, also stood frozen in place, somewhat unable to accept the result.

After all, she had diligently and earnestly exerted a great deal of effort for the Han Family and Han Corporation over the years, and she had struggled against Han Chengye for so long.

Now that the dust had settled, she had lost utterly and completely.

For Han Jingting, who had always been proud and never admitted defeat, this was no small blow!

Uncontrollably, tears began to stream down Han Jingting’s face.

Chen Xuan’s heart ached for her, and he embraced her.

"It’s okay, the Han Family Patriarch is not worth worrying about!"

While he said this, a cold glint crossed Chen Xuan’s eyes.

Yesterday, Madam Han had made it very clear that she would pass on the position of Family Head to either himself or Han Jingting.

But now, the name written on the will was Han Chengye, while she herself had suffered a stroke and was not lucid.

There must be a conspiracy behind all this!
