The sickly little one was adopted by a wealthy foreigner and became a favorite.

"A truly impressive performance." The Queen clapped her hands, clearly very satisfied.

She went on to say:

"You're so young, and to have achieved this much, you must have paid an unimaginable price. Since you understand the cruelty of being born and are determined to walk this path, I can support you. I will also instruct the other nobles to vote for you."

"However, I want to ask you for a favor."

"Could you represent our country in this Olympics? After all, you're going to be the head of the Winston family now, wouldn't it be better to switch your nationality?"

The Queen is gentle and kind, but she is also a queen. Even if she loves a child very much, when it comes to the interests of her country and people, her country and people will always come first.

"If you bring honor to our country this time, then it will be only right for me to grant you the status you deserve. You won't even need to fight for it to become a beneficiary of this battle."

The Queen spoke calmly, but her words were full of ideas that directly addressed Wu Tu's desires and made him compromise.

Looking at the Queen, Wu Tu said to herself, "To be honest, no one can resist this temptation."

He doesn't even need to back down; he can still compete for the gold medal, and his father can protect him.

but……

Wu Tu has already agreed to Yu Jue's request...

Wu Tu recalled the various resources and training expenses that China had poured into nurturing him, and Yu Jue's eyes, which had been lifeless for so long, finally lit up again as hope was rekindled...

He can't do that.

He is Chinese, and China has always abhorred this kind of ungrateful behavior.

After thinking about this, Wu Tu decisively shook her head: "I refuse."

"Although your offer is very generous, I cannot accept it."

"Because I am loyal to my country, but I also acknowledge that I have the blood of this land flowing through my veins; I am my father's child."

"But precisely because of this, if I were someone who could easily betray my country, wouldn't Your Majesty also find me unreliable?"

The Queen laughed; clearly, she was pleased with Wu Tu's answer.

In this easy question where answering either yes or no would lead to trouble, Wu Tu actually showed such wisdom. This little guy is not simple.

The Queen agreed and even personally presented the black rabbit with its own badge.

This badge represents her approval; with it, Wu Tu can practically do whatever she wants throughout the entire country.

But the little guy had no time to be smug, nor did he have time to relax.

He got back into his car, nodded to Ross, and then immediately submitted his leave of absence application to the school.

In addition to the necessary training, he planned to seriously study the Winston family's current businesses, try to keep up with the pace, and win over the hearts of the Winston family.

His studies would slow him down, so he had to put the matter aside for the time being.

Thanks to Ross's help, the little guy got a general understanding.

He knew that no one dared to use Winston's previous confidants, so he went to win them over and give them important positions.

Because everyone knew that the pack of hounds were practically Winston's trained henchmen, completely loyal to him.

For Wutu, his father's confidant was his guardian angel.

He was 100% confident that these people would choose him.

Fortunately, no one dares to appoint Winston's confidants yet, so most of the businesses Winston has placed in their hands have not been swallowed up or changed.

Ulu felt relieved; he was sitting slumped in the car, and Ross was applying medicine to his heel.

The little guy wanted to tell Ross not to worry about him, but Ross insisted that he was just repaying a favor and could temporarily act as Wu Tu's bodyguard.

Wu Tu never gets angry at people who are doing it for his own good.

He's the type who responds better to gentle persuasion than force.

The little guy who was just now confidently declaring that he would definitely become the head of the family, now, faced with Ross's forceful care, could only weakly tap Ross a couple of times with his bandages.

"Okay, it's just a little chafed, no need to bandage it so carefully. It's not time to leave work yet, I need to go find Maureen."

Ross listened to Wu Tu's nonchalant words and looked at the wound on the little guy's hind foot, which had been rubbed deeper.

This is all because the little guy didn't treat the wound in time after discovering it, and insisted on going ice skating, which caused it.

Even though it's just a superficial injury, once it heals and forms a callus, it won't prevent Wutu from continuing to skate, but how could it not hurt?

The wounds from repeated rubbing while skating made every step feel like walking on a knife's edge like the Little Mermaid...

But the little guy who used to cry out in pain and whine now acts like he doesn't care at all.

Is it because the adults are not here?

Ross felt both heartache and helplessness as he thought about this.

He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, wondering just how far the little guy would go for Winston.

But the clown couldn't see through Ross's thoughts, and he was always busy trying to save his father.

After receiving the Queen's tacit approval, Wu Tu arrived at the Winston family's old mansion as planned.

Each new head of the family must be chosen here at the old house, under the gaze of portraits of past heads of the family.

When the little guy arrived, he heard the servants say that Richard was having a meeting with the collateral branches, supposedly for the second vote on the succession to the head of the family.

Wu Tu walked through the corridor lined with portraits of past patriarchs and came to a heavy wooden door. Before he went in, he saw through the crack in the ajar door that Richard and his men were pointing guns at Cyrus.

Richard was flanked by Kaylan, and Cyrus by Lilith; they were clearly divided into two factions, as were the people behind them.

Once you're deeply involved, you have to choose sides.

With just one glance, Wu Tu spotted the third group of people standing to the side.

Those were Winston's old men and confidants.

Wu Tu glanced at his black suit, straightened his high ponytail, and after confirming that everything was alright, he took a deep breath and pushed open the door.

As expected, Wutu met everyone's gaze.

But he will no longer be afraid or terrified of other people's gaze.

Wu Tu held its breath, revealing its sharp edge on the ice to onlookers for the first time.

Richard and the others looked at the black rabbit in surprise, as if it were the first time they had seen that the little cub in their eyes could also show its prowess.

Furthermore, the presence of Wutu here has already revealed his purpose.

At this moment, Wu Tu no longer concealed his intentions. Without wasting words, he directly addressed his father's confidant:

"Merlin, Ryder, Cherino..."

Come to me.

Instead of calling them uncles and brothers as he usually did, he addressed them by their names, in the name of the heir.

Morin looked at Wutu; he was the first person to walk towards Wutu.

This is because Winston had told them that they needed to protect the young master when necessary.

At this point, all they could do was unconditionally obey the young master's orders and submit to the new king.

Someone nearby chuckled, "What's a mere child like you, a pampered young master, doing here?"
