Chapter 279 What needs to be settled must be settled.
Two weeks later, Mr. Fu was discharged from the hospital.
Being discharged from the hospital does not mean that you have fully recovered.
Rather, it was because Grandpa Fu couldn't bear the constant stream of people visiting him at the hospital every day.
Some were old friends from the Beicheng business district, some were former business partners, and some were even relatives who had separated from their families.
Every day, groups of people come to the ward carrying bags and bags of gifts.
The noise annoyed Old Master Fu to no end.
These people call it a visit to check on someone's health.
Actually, it was just an excuse to find out about the next heir of the Fu family.
It was obvious to everyone that the old man had suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and was hospitalized. Fortunately, he was rescued in time and his life was saved.
When will the other half of his life be taken back by fate...?
Grandpa Fu is already eighty years old.
Nobody can say for sure.
If this situation happens again and Old Master Fu doesn't make it, who will take charge of the Fu family's vast business in the future?
Whom should they fawn over? Whom should they try to please?
Everyone was watching closely, desperately trying to dig out any minute detail.
Grandpa Fu just smiled without answering, waving his hand and saying he was tired.
Then Butler Zhao will step forward to see the guests off.
Later, Old Master Fu simply gave an order, without telling the children, to have Butler Zhao arrange his discharge from the hospital and return to the Fu residence.
All visits are declined at home.
Having a family private doctor provide 24-hour monitoring makes recovery easier.
After some time, when Old Master Fu's health had improved somewhat, Fu Chengli came directly with a stack of documents.
Old Master Fu had just finished taking the medicine handed to him by his private nurse when he looked at Fu Chengli standing at the door of the room.
I had a pretty good idea that the peaceful days were coming to an end.
Grandpa Fu's white eyebrows furrowed as he said, "Grandson, my health has only just improved a little, and you've already come to see me. I doubt it's anything good."
Fu Chengli chuckled, "Yes and no."
Old Master Fu snorted coldly: "Hmph! You're still trying to play riddles with me!"
Fu Chengli pursed his lips, handed the document to Old Master Fu, and then pulled a chair to Old Master Fu's bedside.
"It's a good thing for the Fu Group, but you might not be happy to see it, so it's not entirely a good thing."
Old Master Fu took the reading glasses handed to him by Butler Zhao and put them on.
The documents were a thick stack.
The old man looked at it very carefully.
As he turned the pages, the old man's brow furrowed more and more deeply.
Fu Chengli unbuttoned his suit jacket and lazily draped his arms over the armrests of the sofa.
He glanced at Old Master Fu's complicated expression and slowly said, "You once told me to stop, not to go too far, and not to drive the Qin and Du families to their deaths."
"Five years ago, Du Yun's men accidentally hit and killed a couple while doing business in the black market. To cover their tracks, they buried them on the spot without even confirming their identities. Later, I found the couple's child, Bai Lingsen, who was studying law at Beicheng University."
"In order to seek revenge, he accepted my arrangement to infiltrate the Du family step by step and obtained a lot of evidence of their illegal and criminal activities. Grandpa, look here."
Fu Chengli pulled out a few sheets of paper from the stack of documents.
Old Master Fu glanced at it and cursed fiercely, "That bastard! It happened right under his nose, and he just turned a blind eye?!"
These few pages of documents were Bai Lingsen's "final gift" to Fu Chengli some time ago.
It was under Fu Haidong's "indulgence" that evidence of collusion between Lai Yuqiang and Wu Xinde was found.
Lai Yu-Chiang secretly leaked company information and colluded with Wu Hsin-Te to seek personal gain.
Grandpa Fu was so angry that he threw the documents away.
"Bastard!"
Fu Chengli gestured to Butler Zhao with his eyes, telling him to quickly find a doctor to monitor the old man and not let him get too excited, lest something else go wrong.
Butler Zhao nodded and turned to go find a doctor.
Fu Chengli sighed and bent down to pick up all the documents scattered on the ground.
He picked up the scattered documents in his hand, slowly straightened them, and said calmly, "Grandpa, getting rid of this parasite is a good thing for the company, so please don't be too angry."
Grandpa Fu took a deep breath and managed to calm himself down.
With aged fingers rubbing his temples, he said angrily, "Is Fu Haidong blind?! Such a big thing happened right under his nose, is he really stupid or just pretending!"
Suddenly, Old Master Fu remembered something and stared at Fu Chengli, asking, "Is that Lai Yuqiang still in the company?"
Fu Chengli replied, "Lai Yuqiang was promoted by my father. After the QS project leak was investigated, in order to cover up his personnel mistake, my father sent her to Yecheng. She resigned some time ago."
Old Master Fu: "Investigate! Initiate legal proceedings! Sue those who should be sued, and liquidate those who should be liquidated!"
Fu Chengli nodded in agreement.
He hesitated for a few seconds, then began, "Grandpa, there's one more thing..."
Grandpa Fu had a very good understanding of his eldest grandson's temperament.
They always come prepared when they cause trouble.
Plan step by step until you firmly grasp the initiative in your own hands.
Old Master Fu squinted and glanced at him.
"Is it about An Ying?"
Fu Chengli chuckled and didn't shy away from the question: "Grandpa guessed right."
Old Master Fu snorted through his nostrils:
"I'm just sick, not stupid. You've been watching An Ying for a long time, haven't you? I just see through it but don't call you out on it. Do you think I really don't know?"
Fu Chengli obediently poured his grandfather a glass of water and handed it to him, saying, "Grandpa, don't get excited, please drink some water first."
Grandpa Fu tilted his head back and drank more than half of the water in his teacup.
“When I was still in the hospital, An Ying came to see me. I told her then that I’m an old man and I just want to spend my old age in peace and quiet. I don’t want to get too involved in the affairs of you young people.”
Fu Chengli lowered his eyes and silently breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man's words made his meaning very clear.
It is evident to all that Fu Haidong has always opposed Fu Chengli and An Ying.
However, as long as the old man turns a blind eye.
Fu Chengli made another effort and secured the position of heir to the Fu family in one fell swoop.
Who can control who he marries?
However, there are some situations that Fu Chengli felt it was necessary to put them on the table and explain them clearly to Old Master Fu.
Fu Chengli said solemnly, "Regarding another matter concerning An Ying, she..."
He coughed lightly and paused.
"She is not the biological child of Fourth Uncle An Weiping. In fact, she is Gu Qingwen's younger sister, the long-lost young lady of the Gu family."
Fu Chengli's gaze fell on Old Master Fu's half-closed face.
He inexplicably felt that his grandfather seemed to have aged a lot after recovering from his serious illness.
Grandpa Fu remained silent and did not respond.
He knew very well why Fu Chengli brought this up.
If An Ying were from an ordinary family, then it would be fine.
She is a child of the Gu family.
The two families had a falling out and never spoke to each other again.
Is it possible for the two families to put aside their past grievances and restore their relationship to its former state in the future?
