Chapter 317 The whole story
After Lin Hao and the Lin couple heard the whole story in astonishment, their hearts were filled with turmoil.
They never expected that things would develop to this point. If Lin Hao was really Hong Wenchang's younger brother as speculated, then this meant that he was actually a poor child who was cruelly abandoned by his biological father!
At this moment, Madam Hong gazed at Lin Hao in front of her with a firm and loving gaze, and said in a sincere and genuine tone: "My child, I just want to know how you have lived these years, and I want to do my best to make up for it.
But please believe me, I will never, and I don’t have the right to force you to abandon your adoptive parents who have worked so hard to raise you and come back to me.”
Facing Madam Hong's deep affection, Lin Hao was silent for a moment, then raised his head, looked at everyone with a calm but grateful look, and slowly said, "Thank you, but everything is still uncertain at the moment. Let's wait for the results of the appraisal before making a conclusion."
Lin Hao and his adoptive parents, who were standing nearby, finally relaxed a little after hearing Mrs. Hong's sensible words.
After all, before coming here, they had learned about the Hong family's background through the Internet.
They knew that the Hong family's power and status were beyond the reach of ordinary people like them.
Fortunately, however, Mrs. Hong was obviously a person who understood the bigger picture and did not bully others or interfere in the matter by force.
At this moment, Hong Wenchang's cell phone rang suddenly, and the familiar yet repulsive name flashed on the screen - father.
He took a deep breath and pressed the answer button. Before he could speak, a storm of scolding came from the other side:
"Hong Wenchang! What do you mean? You just want your brother to be the general manager. You refuse to agree to such a small matter. Are you really going to ignore the relationship between brothers?" Old Master Hong roared angrily.
Hong Wenchang frowned and tried to keep his voice calm: "Dad, this matter is not as simple as you think. I have already made my attitude clear. I don't want him to join the Hong Group. And Mom has the same idea."
In fact, Hong Wenchang knew very well that the attitudes of the Li family and the Jiang family towards their Hong family had long been very clear.
The reason why the Hong family was spared this time was entirely because of Miaomiao's face.
If Hong Wenbin were allowed to join the company rashly at this time, it would probably anger the Li family and the Jiang family again, and the consequences would be disastrous.
Thinking of this, Hong Wenchang continued, "If he really comes in, what if he angers the Li and Jiang families, and then they join forces to deal with our company?" After that, he ruthlessly rejected his father's request.
"You bastard! That's your own brother!" Old Master Hong stomped his feet in anger, his voice getting louder and louder.
However, Hong Wenchang had made up his mind at this moment. He knew very well that the current situation did not allow for any carelessness.
Grandpa Hong knew very well that, not to mention the huge cost of opening a new company for Hong Wenbin, the pressure from the Li and Jiang families alone would be enough to make Hong Wenbin's new company difficult and unsustainable.
Therefore, returning to the Hong family is the only viable way out for Hong Wenbin at the moment. But Hong Wenchang really cannot accept such a decision that may put the entire family business in danger.
It is conceivable that in the end Xiao Miaomiao might take his wife's feelings into consideration and not really allow the Li and Jiang families to join forces to completely defeat the Hong family.
However, when Hong Wenchang heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
After all, for him, the so-called half-brother, Hong Wenbin, would soon no longer be a blood relationship.
He has so many brothers like this that it is naturally difficult for him to take care of them all.
At this time, Mrs. Hong walked up and took the phone.
Although she was extremely angry, she finally suppressed her emotions and decided to wait for the test results before making a decision.
"Don't be so delusional. If you dare to let Hong Wenbin take up a position in the Hong Group, don't blame me for being ruthless and ungrateful!
I will order Wenchang to sell all the shares he and I hold, and then use the funds to create a new company. "
At the same time, I will also tell Miaomiao that Hong Wenbin has taken over Hong's enterprise and does not need to worry about my feelings and thoughts. As for whether the Li family and the Jiang family will force Hong to go bankrupt by then, it is unknown. "Mrs. Hong said with a firm tone and a sharp gaze.
"You...how dare you be so decisive?" Upon hearing this, Mr. Hong's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
He never expected that his wife could be so cruel. If things really developed to that point, not only would Hong Wenbin not be able to gain any benefit from it, but he himself would probably be kicked out of the house.
"You, how can you be so heartless! Wenbin is your own flesh and blood! Besides, how can the divorce between Wenbin and Xiao Miaomiao be entirely attributed to Wenbin alone? It was obviously Xiao Miaomiao's own incompetence that failed to keep Wenbin's heart!"
"As for Wenbin cheating on his wife, it's just a mistake most men make. Why bother with a divorce? If it were in ancient times, a woman like Xiao Miaomiao would have divorced him directly for such a jealous act!"
Mr. Hong said this with a look of disapproval, as if he didn't think that Wenbin's mistake was a big deal.
However, he overlooked an important fact - he had many mistresses outside, but his wife at home did not make a big fuss about it.
Perhaps that's why he doesn't care about Wenbin's behavior.
At this moment, everyone present clearly heard Mr. Hong's shameless words.
Everyone was dumbfounded and secretly sighed: I have never seen such a shameless person! No wonder he could be so cruel as to abandon his own child for his mistress.
Lin Hao, who was standing by, listened to all this silently, feeling extremely ashamed and angry.
He couldn't imagine that he had such a shameless and morally corrupt father.
For a moment, he even felt as if there was a stain on him. If this was really his biological father, he would want to immediately draw a clear line between himself and this so-called father.
Madam Hong showed an expression of anger and amusement on her face. She couldn't help but sneer, "I originally thought that you just had no moral bottom line, but now it seems that I really underestimated you!"
"I didn't expect you to be like an old stubborn, antique living in a feudal society, and you're the kind that's dirty and smelly like you fell into a toilet!"
