Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1424: Ren Liang’s Regret

Wang Cuixia is a smart woman. She doesn’t need much guidance. I believe Wang Cuixia can figure these things out on her own, and even for Xu Ke’s sake, Wang Cuixia would call her son back, and she would return to Beijing City. In any case, everything will solve itself.

Remembering his son, who had not seen the light of day, old man Xu couldn’t help but sigh. Ever since marrying the Hu family’s daughter, his son hadn’t left the house and always kept himself locked up at home.

If his son knew he had a bloodline who was so outstanding in this world and that Wang Cuixia was alive and well, perhaps Xu’s son would be willing to come out and find them—the mother and child.

"Sir, I feel something’s not right about this. Besides, Wang Cuixia hates you so much. What if you give her the address, and she takes the young master away? Then our Xu Group would have no heir. Aren’t you worried at all?"

Hearing his assistant’s words, Xu Long felt a bit helpless. To say he wasn’t worried would be false, but what could worrying do? After all, those two have their grievances. If he really forced them to accept something, it might backfire. It’s better to take it slowly.

So, Xu Long has been betting on this, hoping Wang Cuixia could do something for Xu Ke. He also believed a mother’s love was the greatest in the world.

If Wang Cuixia really took Xu Ke away, then the Xu Group’s fate would end here, and Xu Long would accept that fate.

"Alright, stop worrying about it. I believe she was once the top genius in the capital, and now she’ll make the right choice. After all, the Wang family wasn’t left with nothing back then in the capital."

Back in the day, Wang Cuixia had her father’s talent and was all business with swift decisions, not losing to any man. Many were even afraid of her methods. Unfortunately, ever since the child started school, there hasn’t been much interference in the company.

But who would’ve thought that the Wang Group would fall at the hands of relatives? If not for this, and if the Wang Group hadn’t been ruined, the current Wang Group might have been better than the Xu Group.

After seeing old man Xu leave, Uncle Li could tell the young lady was quite heartbroken. But there was no helping it. If she continued to be sad, nobody would be there for the young master.

"Miss, should we go and see the young master? No matter what, he is your child. Surely, you can’t just sit and watch him suffer, can you?"

"Moreover, it’s said that the young master is doing very well in Beijing. He’s now got the position of president of Xiao Group’s branch. We’ve been abroad for so long, and we’ve lost touch with his whereabouts. Perhaps we should go back and take a look; maybe the young master is having a tough time."

"And your past relationship with the young master wasn’t good, plus he’s been in a coma for so many years. You never expressed worry, but I know you care for him most in this world. If even you don’t care for him, who else will? Can you really just watch him lose what he loves and keep resenting you?"

Uncle Li advised passionately. For years, though Wang Cuixia spoke harsh words, she was genuinely good to the young master. Who knows what the young lady thinks now.

Having been with Wang Cuixia for so many years, I know it hasn’t been easy for the young lady, especially since Xu Ke seems to be her entire life. How could she bear to let go of this child?

But everything the young lady does now is because of the Xu family’s interference. That’s why she’s resistant to contact with the child—she just wants the child to have a better life.

Wang Cuixia clenched the phone number in her palm, her hands trembling. She never imagined she could find her child in this lifetime. She only wanted the child to live well but didn’t realize her rash decision had made the child’s life hard.

But will the child forgive her now? Thinking about how poorly the child must have lived, maybe even harboring resentment, Wang Cuixia couldn’t help her hands from trembling, feeling a lump in her throat, and tears started to fall.

Earlier in front of old man Xu, she was just putting on a brave face. But after he left, she felt this heart-wrenching pain so intensely.

"Alright, I’ll sort this out. Besides, isn’t that child doing well now? At first, I thought he didn’t even recognize characters and would struggle outside, but he actually became the president of Xiao Group’s branch. I don’t know if he still resents me. Regardless, I’ll call him tonight. Now I just want to be alone; you go back first. The wind outside is too strong."

Hearing the young lady say this finally put Uncle Li at ease.

Watching her silhouette, he couldn’t help but shake his head. No matter what, he hoped the young lady and the young master would reconcile. After all, they are the closest people to each other in this world, and everyone else is irrelevant.

Seeing the online claims of Light and Shadow Company plagiarizing Yu Group keep mounting, and Yu Hao even hiring paid commenters at night to stir these discussions up, Xu Ke wasn’t worried, but Light and Shadow Company’s president, Ren Liang, was getting anxious.

"Our Light and Shadow Company’s themes are completely different, so why are they accusing us of plagiarism? And these netizens wouldn’t listen to reason, as if being manipulated by something. It’s really frustrating. Had I known, I wouldn’t have said anything."

Ren Liang said and then looked at Pan Xuehai standing nearby: "Is there any news from headquarters, especially from Mr. Xu? I should’ve listened to Mr. Xu, but it was my own foolishness. Instead of listening to Mr. Xu, I thought he’d given up on our Light and Shadow Company."

Thinking about this, Ren Liang felt immense regret. At that critical moment, Xu Ke was the obvious helper, yet it was his overthinking that led to this mess.

But if he backed down from these debates, it could make those paid commenters think Light and Shadow Company had something incriminating, hence acting like a turtle in its shell.

Pan Xuehai sighed helplessly. Since he was by Ren Liang’s side, he knew that Ren Liang had reached out to Mr. Xu earlier, but unfortunately, he didn’t listen. Pan Xuehai had advised for a long time, and now these issues had piled up, overwhelming Light and Shadow Company.

"There’s been no word from Mr. Xu or headquarters, as if they’re unaware of this issue."
