Chapter 735: Chapter 735: This Insurance Must Be Added_1

Seeing that Wen Zhanxiao and Wen Zhanyun had both quieted down, Wen Tianning nodded in satisfaction and spoke indifferently, "Does anyone else have objections now?"

"Since it’s a decision Uncle Two has pondered thoroughly, I support it!"

Wen Zhanyun surrendered at this moment, chuckling as he said, "Biyu grew up under my watch, and she has always been incredibly sharp since she was little. I’ve had high hopes for her! With her at the helm of the Wen Family, I wholly agree."

As he spoke, he turned to Wen Biyu and said, "Biyu, do you remember? Right after you graduated from university and started working at the company, it was Uncle Seven who personally guided you through every industry of the company."

"Of course, I remember. Back then I didn’t understand anything, and it was Uncle Seven who taught me hands-on how to manage company affairs."

Wen Biyu smiled sweetly and bowed slightly to Wen Zhanyun, "Without Uncle Seven’s careful nurturing, Biyu wouldn’t be who she is today. Here, I’d like to thank Uncle Seven."

Damn it!

Wen Zhanxiao glared fiercely at Wen Zhanyun, disgusted that this spineless individual capitulated immediately when the situation turned unfavorable—not a man at all!

"And you, Zhan Xiao?"

At this juncture, Wen Tianning, who was seated in the place of honor, spoke up. His eyes were reduced to slits, his tone neither light nor heavy.

Wen Zhanxiao knew that the Family Head was pressuring him, and while he thought to back down like the sixth brother did, he couldn’t help feeling some resentment, considering the years of effort he had put in and the proximity of the Family Head position.

"I do not oppose Biyu’s succession as the Family Head, but..."

Just as he was about to state his reasons, suddenly Wen Tianning’s narrowed eyes snapped open and he decisively exclaimed, "Since you do not oppose, the matter is settled!"

"Effective today, Biyu will be the Family Head of our Wen Family and also the Chairwoman of Wen Corporation! Let’s welcome her!"

Clap clap clap!

He led the applause, and soon enough, the scattered clapping merged into a uniform rhythm.

Realizing the tide had turned, Wen Zhanxiao dared not speak further and bowed his head, occasionally casting glances at Wen Biyu who had already taken the seat of the Family Head.

"Thank you, uncles and elders, for your deep affection and support. Here, I promise everyone that I will do my best to grow the Wen Family, and within the next five years, I aim to lead the Wen Family beyond Jiangling City to become the best family enterprise in Jiuzhou!"

Watching Wen Biyu assume the position of the Family Head amidst everyone’s envious stares and delivering such lofty promises, Wen Zhanxiao’s fists nearly tore the fabric of his sleeves.

"Damned woman, I’ve spent so many years setting up this game only to have you reap the benefits!"

"Fine, Wen Biyu, you’ve forced my hand. If I could kill your parents fifteen years ago, I can just as well kill you after another fifteen!"

Soon, Wen Zhanxiao’s clenched fists relaxed, and he followed by clapping his hands, with a cold glint flickering in his eyes.

Wen Tianning had been closely observing the expressions of everyone present, and when his gaze fell on Wen Zhanxiao, he spotted a fleeting chill in the man’s eyes.

What is he planning?

Wen Tianning squinted his eyes, his thoughts suddenly flashing back to the car accident that claimed his son and daughter-in-law fifteen years ago.

That year, he had just named his son as the principal heir, but a few days later, a tragic accident occurred.

Grief-stricken, he felt something was amiss and exhausted every means and connection to investigate, but the results pointed to an accident, with no signs of murder.

The BMW that his son and daughter-in-law were in crashed due to an unexpected brake failure.

Wen Tianning let out a light sigh and slowly opened his eyes. No matter whether his son’s death was an accident or not, he had to ensure his granddaughter’s safety at all costs—she must not fall victim to those petty criminals!

This additional safeguard was necessary!

With this in mind, he pressed down with his hand to call for silence before coughing slightly and announcing, "Everyone please quiet down; there is another matter I wish to announce!"

"Considering that Biyu is currently unmarried and without her own children, to avoid a future scenario where an accident leaves the Wen Family without an heir, I am adding an extra clause here."

"Should anything happen to Biyu in the future, the management of Wen Corporation will be entrusted to..."

Everyone immediately held their breath, their eyes locked onto Wen Tianning’s response with excitement, especially Wen Zhanxiao, whose eyes seemed ready to pop out of their sockets.

Since he wasn’t the primary heir, he could strive to be the secondary heir!

Then, as long as he replicated the same tactics to make Wen Biyu meet with an ’accident,’ he would inherit the Wen Corporation worth more than 250 billion!

Wen Zhanyun was equally thrilled, but for some reason, when he saw Old Master Wen’s cloudy eyes, a chill ran down his spine.

Wen Biyu also felt puzzled. Why did Grandpa say he needed to set up a second family heir in case something happened to me?

"I will leave it to a professional career manager to handle it!"

Wen Tianning snorted through his nose and said indifferently, "This career manager will only be accountable to me, and no one else has the right to question it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the room erupted again.

"Family Head, how can this be! Even though Biyu is a member of the Wen Family, these career managers are outsiders. How can you entrust the great Wen Family to a stranger’s hands!"

"As the saying goes, ’those not of our kin, surely have different minds.’ Family Head, I’ve dealt with these career managers in the market, and while some of them are indeed capable, they are definitely not as loyal as members of our own Wen Family! Please reconsider your decision!"

"Yes, Family Head, won’t you reconsider?"

Old Master Wen smiled faintly, first looking at Wen Zhanyun before saying, "Fifth, what do you think?"

Wen Zhanyun’s forehead broke out in cold sweat; he had a vague guess of Old Master Wen’s thoughts. This was a test for him. Wiping the sweat from his brow, his cheek muscles trembled slightly as he replied, "Having a career manager manage the corporation is common practice both in Jiuzhou and overseas."

"Admittedly, career managers might not have as high loyalty to the Wen Family as we do, but their loyalty to money is extremely high."

"As long as they can manage the Wen Corporation efficiently and ensure the business flourishes, they will receive substantial rewards."

"I think we could give it a try..."

"A try? Is this something to be ’tried’?"

Before Wen Zhanyun could finish speaking, Wen Zhanxiao rudely interrupted, "Uncle, I believe this is imprudent; we should consider this more carefully!"

"Our Wen Family has spent so many years building itself up to its current size! If we leave the management of our corporation to outsiders, how will our friends in Jiangling City view us?"

"They will say the Wen Family lacks a successor, that the younger generation of the Wen Family are all incapable, with no ability to steer this great ship of the Wen Family!"

"And your age is also advanced. Dare I say, if one day you are no longer with us, then our Wen Family might just end up in strangers’ hands!"

"Zhan Xiao believes it would be best to select a second in line for succession..."

Wen Tianning gave a derisive smile and said indifferently, "Alright then, how about we appoint you, Wen Zhanxiao, as the second in line for succession?"
