Chapter 295: Chapter 295: You are Destroying His Hard Work

"Grandpa believes you can protect yourself, but I still hope you won’t kill him. Do you know, I owe his grandmother, his father, and even more so him. Consider it a plea from me, you must not hurt him, even if it is to make amends to them, okay?"

Rong Shaoze pursed his lips slightly but didn’t respond.

"Shaoze, do you really want me to be unable to rest in peace after I die? I’m already old, and I don’t even know how long I have left. Do you really want me to leave this world with pain and regret?"

"...Fine, I promise you," he said indifferently and walked out of the study.

As he descended the stairs, his anxious mother approached him. "Shaoze, you didn’t make your grandfather angry, did you? What did your grandfather say, did he make things difficult for you?"

"Mom, I’m fine." He looked at Rong Mingyan; their indifferent gazes briefly met for less than a second before shifting away.

"Dad, Mom, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."

He gestured to Lin Xinlan, and as she approached, he took her hand in his.

Leading her outside, his mother still seemed to want to ask something, but seeing his detached expression, the words got stuck in her throat.

"Uncle, Auntie, I’ll be going too," Rong Mingyan said as he stood up with a slight smile.

He clearly had no intention of asking Rong Shaoze why he planned to sell his Shengjue shares, acting as if his visit was merely for a cup of tea and a casual sit-down.

After everyone had left, the father let out a heavy sigh. "What exactly is Shaoze trying to achieve by doing this?"

Rong Shaoze’s mother, having more faith in her son, considered and then said, "I think he must have his plans. Don’t worry, Shaoze is sensible; he won’t act recklessly."

"Who knows what Dad said to him. Do you think Dad might completely force Shaoze out of Shengjue?" the father asked.

The mother’s eyelids twitched, but she gave no answer.

She just noticed that the older her son grew, the less she understood what was on his mind.

If only she had known, she shouldn’t have left Shaoze to be raised by his grandmother all those years ago. He should have stayed by her side, under her own care...

What was supposed to be a family meeting, a meeting to question Rong Shaoze about why he sold his shares, ended with the family dispersing without having discussed anything.

Sitting in the car, Lin Xinlan saw that Rong Shaoze looked preoccupied and couldn’t help but ask him, "Did your grandfather reprimand you?"

He turned his head, smiling slightly. "Why do you ask?"

The look on your face isn’t good; you must have been scolded."

"Yes, Grandpa gave me an earful. But I’ve already sold the shares. It’s too late for his scolding."

"That’s to be expected. You are destroying his life’s work. Naturally, he would be very angry," Lin Xinlan said lightly.

"So, as penance, I’ve decided to buy back the sold shares and even managed to acquire some more at a low price," he said.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xinlan’s eyes. "You... you deliberately sold the shares, just to buy them back at a lower price and obtain more shares, right?"

He gave her an appreciative look.

"But it sounds so simple..." she added.

"Haha..." Rong Shaoze let out a hearty laugh and said, "It may look simple, but if it were really that simple, wouldn’t a lot of people be doing it?"

"Indeed."

She didn’t understand the workings of the business world, so naturally, she had no idea how much effort Rong Shaoze had put into it behind the scenes.

But his success showed that he was quite capable.

Rong Shaoze’s countermove came swiftly; in just a short span of two days, he had secured fifty-one percent of the shares.
