Chapter 1087: Chapter 1087: The Battle Begins
"You didn’t even tell your uncle, what’s going on with the Jiang Family?"
Yu Shaoyan didn’t believe he would pay attention to him for no reason; it definitely had something to do with Bai Xiao too.
The Jiang Family and the Yu Family have had no interaction for many years. Don’t talk about the old generation’s friendship. Ever since they faded out of the Capital City’s circle, there has been almost nothing left of that, not even superficial courtesies.
The Jiang Family is at the height of its power, with several sons holding important positions in various roles. I’ve heard that just the second son of the Jiang Family alone has enough room and capability to advance further.
The two families have never had any dealings; he went out of his way to help him. This one phone call was enough for him to get through this dangerous period unscathed, not because Yu Shaoyan lacked ability.
Under ordinary circumstances, he wouldn’t care about following someone else’s path. Yu Shaoyan’s own ability was enough to handle this position without fearing any competition.
But he hadn’t properly encountered someone maliciously framing him, and such a setup could easily bring anyone to ruin.
This one call was a lifeline. It was enough for Yu Shaoyan to get through this crisis.
Bai Xiao went over his connections with Jiang Shaoqing again. Upon hearing that Jiang Shaoqing was an ally of Bai Xiao and even helped Bai Xiao against the Shang Family, Yu Shaoyan was flabbergasted.
His niece really had connections everywhere despite her young age.
Even the old master of the Jiang Family could be saved by his own niece, creating a good karmic connection. Otherwise, there’d be nowhere to seek last-minute help.
He knew nothing, yet they had extracted him from this trouble, leaving him feeling a bit dejected. He’s the uncle! He should be taking care of Bai Xiao, but now the roles are reversed, and he feels his old face has been completely disgraced.
"Uncle! We are family. This expression of yours seems like you don’t want me to help you, then you are keeping me at a distance, not treating me as your niece." Dear Uncle! In a past life, you kindly helped and saved me, so in this life, these things are insignificant.
Good people should earn good rewards.
Bai Xiao doesn’t care about destiny; she is the destiny.
It’s not the cyclical nature of fate that gives inevitable retribution.
If that’s true, then good people receive good rewards, and bad people get punished. If not, it defies the principles of the universe.
Yu Shaoyan smiled bitterly, "What else can I say? My niece is too excellent! Too outstanding, truly as the river pushes the waves forward, Uncle has grown old, Xiaoxiao. Uncle won’t be able to protect you for long, but even without Uncle! You’ll still thrive, I do believe this.
Regarding the Shang Family, what are you planning to do? Don’t forget, I’m your uncle. If these people aren’t knocked to the mud, Shang Feng won’t understand that our Yu Family is not to be trifled with, and he won’t know why the flowers are so red."
As soon as the Shang Family was mentioned, Yu Shaoyan was also furious.
They didn’t seek out this heartless bastard, Shang Feng, for his mistakes!
Shang Feng still dared to trouble them; this world truly shows the lenient are bullied.
His sister, back in the day, could be said to have brought it upon herself, unable to see people’s true nature, ending up with such a fate, she could not blame others.
The Yu Family isn’t one that indiscriminately retaliates. Back then, Yu Shaoya also had faults, but Shang Feng actually sent his daughter to frame the Yu Family; that’s intolerable.
They’re not easily bullied either.
Bai Xiao laughed and said, of course, an uncle’s an uncle. Naturally, when this was mentioned, they were on the same page, "Uncle, the Shang Family must have some foundation in Modu. I’ve investigated Shang Kaiwen, and supposedly they want to collaborate with Bai Jingshan to develop a biotech pharmaceutical enterprise. With the Shang Family’s assets, they certainly aren’t enough to collaborate with Bai Jingshan, but Shang Kaiwen is resourceful and managed to connect with Bai Jingshan.
Bai Jingshan, as an overseas Chinese with adequate backing and abundant capital, with an investment from the Bai Corporation, the Shang Family might rise higher this time. I want to dismantle this cooperation, at least spoil the collaboration between Bai Jingshan and the Shang Family. We can’t just watch the Shang Family grow big.
Jiang Shaoqing will join forces with me. My five hundred million investments have always been running in Jiang Shaoqing’s venture capital firm. If nothing goes wrong, even throwing out a billion isn’t an issue now. This time I want the Shang Family to be done for! Completely done for, unable to stir up trouble ever again."
Bai Xiao felt that she was too lenient at the start, wanting to destroy Shang Kaiwen, it’s better to do it cleanly and just finish him off.
Unfortunately, the opportunity is not very good, and she wants to see Shang Kaiwen’s downfall as soon as possible.
In life, if she kept seeing her enemy creating difficulties right in front of her, Bai Xiao felt she couldn’t bear it, and she didn’t want to harm her family.
Looks like having too good a temperament is a problem.
Yu Shaoyan glanced at Bai Xiao, "Xiaoxiao, have you thought it through? The Shang Family may indeed be your... Shang Feng might very well be your biological father. Don’t regret doing this!" This is not only Yu Shaoyan’s concern; everyone in the Yu Family, even others, including Shang Feng, thinks Bai Xiao is his biological daughter. So after this, it’d be his biological daughter annihilating her biological father.
They can be ruthless, but what if Bai Xiao regrets it later?
Bai Xiao smirked, laughing sarcastically at her uncle, startling Yu Shaoyan. Hadn’t he angered his niece?
"Xiao, don’t be like this. It’s not worth getting mad over those people. Your future is bright, and you shouldn’t ruin it for those who aren’t worth it. If, one day, someone uses this against you, it will be a handle."
Yu Shaoyan considered more! Bai Xiao’s future looks very promising. Already a chief physician, going further to become a professor isn’t impossible!
After all, Bai Xiao is only twenty-three years old. At this age, there are too many possibilities.
"Uncle! I don’t care about the future. Even if I can get what I want with my own abilities in the future, I can’t keep myself and my family in this constant state of vigilance forever. I can’t be on guard against others plotting against me every day; that’s too exhausting.
I absolutely do not acknowledge Shang Feng as my father. Even if he truly is, I won’t recognize it. In this life, I only have my real mother, Yu Shaoya, and my adoptive parents, the Bai couple. Others who want to recognize me need to see if I acknowledge them first."
She will never forget how she struggled to survive under Shang Kaiwen’s hand in the past life, how Shang Kaiwen treated her. This grudge cannot be resolved, and blood relations have nothing to do with it.
Just looking at Shang Kaiwen’s actions in this life, they’re enemies too.
Yu Shaoyan sighed, "Alright, since you want to do it this way! Uncle will fully support you. As long as you speak up! Even if Uncle abandons this position, Uncle will not hesitate, the Yu Family is not so easily bullied."
He knew what he needed to do was enough.
Bai Xiao leaned on her uncle’s shoulder, her heart filled with warmth. This is family! Unconditionally supporting her relative.
