She regretted divorcing the female CEO.

"You can come back anytime you miss me," Si Yang said softly on the other end of the phone.

"I want to too! But there are so many things I haven't done."

"Si Yang, let me say a few words to my father at his grave!" Mu Nancen said softly.

There seemed to be a pause on the other end of the phone.

Mu Nancen stared at the phone; if time hadn't been still ticking, she would have thought it was stuck.

"Old man, take good care of yourself over there!" Si Yang finally managed to say.

Mu Nancen burst out laughing.

"Si Yang, you bastard!" Mu Nancen said coquettishly.

"Alright, I really have something to do here. It's not easy for me to answer your call."

"Alright then!" Mu Nancen said softly.

He then hung up the phone.

A gentle smile touched people's hearts; at least, those who followed Mu Nancen had never seen him smile like this before.

"Dad, he's not very good at talking, please don't mind him."

"It's probably no use caring about it." Mu Nancen smiled.

Si Yang is not the kind of person whose attitude changes just because her father is alive or dead.

"He actually dotes on his daughter a lot," Mu Nancen said softly.

I was genuinely angry, but I was also genuinely indulgent.

At Zhonghai Manor, in the early morning, Rong Jinran appeared.

Upon seeing Rong Jinran, the women all showed her extreme respect.

Rong Jinran first held Ye Mengwan's hand and talked for a while. Looking at Ye Mengwan's bloated body, she couldn't help but smile.

One is at the old man's house, and the other is at Lei Man's house.

Now, this extraordinary wealth is not going to fall to her.

I don't know who this child resembles more.

If it were a daughter, it would be best if she were like Ye Mengwan. Little girls are more interesting when they're lively and energetic. Rong Jinran doesn't like quiet children.

If it's a son, he should be more like Si Yang. Si Yang was quite a funny child.

"How much longer?" Rong Jinran asked softly.

"My due date is less than two months away," Ye Mengwan said softly.

"That will be soon." Rong Jinran smiled.

As for Hua Yunyan, she didn't say anything, mainly to avoid embarrassing the other party.

She herself feels awkward being called "aunt."

Moreover, Hua Yunyan most likely wouldn't entrust her child to someone else to take care of.

"How are the preparations going?" Rong Jinran turned her gaze to Ye Qingyan.

The person she trusted most in this family was Ye Qingyan.

With Ye Mengwan abroad and Ye Qingyan at home, he doesn't need to worry about Si Yang.

Although the methods are still a bit immature, we are young, so there's still time.

"The location has been secured; it just needs some decorating."

"We need to connect with some people and build some networks. We can't just start a club with just a few women like us! That would be too embarrassing," Ye Qingyan said softly.

"That's true. If we're going to do it, we should do it to the best of our ability. We absolutely can't let ourselves down," Rong Jinran chuckled.

"From now on, you'll have to learn to take responsibility for these things," Rong Jinran said softly.

"Don't worry." Ye Qingyan nodded.

"Where's the other girl from the Hua family?" Rong Jinran asked with a smile!

It's a bit absurd, but it's not a big deal.

"She's gone, and she still feels like she lost out. She didn't even see the man's face before she sold herself out." Ye Qingyan smiled.

But Hua Meiniang had no choice!

They don't even have the right to be angry.

At this point, as long as she still had any lingering feelings for Si Yang, she wouldn't dare not come.

It's less of a choice and more of a narrow path given to her.

Hua Meiniang had no choice at all.

"You think you can just walk into our house? Not so easy."

"The Hua family should be laughing all the way to the bank!" Rong Jinran scoffed.

Ye Qingyan couldn't help but chuckle. "You're just on his side! In your heart, no one is good enough for your nephew, is that it?"

Rong Jinran smiled upon hearing this; she didn't really think that way.

"Have you sparred with them recently?" Ye Qingyan asked.

"I guess so!" Rong Jinran nodded.

It's just a minor skirmish; the real battleground is with Mu Nancen.

There's more than just the Chaozhou Gang in Southeast Asia.

Rather, it is a place where various forces intersect.

The more backward a place is, the more chaotic it is. Of course, such places are often prone to giving rise to a behemoth.

It's easy to gain a foothold, but to rise to prominence, wisdom and strength are both indispensable.

Therefore, Mu Nancen bears all the pressure.

"So you guys need to speed things up. As for me, I'm just testing the waters first. When it comes to the real work, it'll be you guys who will be doing the work," Rong Jinran said with a light laugh.

"How can we do that? We can't do it without the guidance and support of elders like you." Ye Qingyan quickly shook her head.

"Dream on. I'm so old, I need to rest. In the future, the Rong family's business empire will be handed over to you one by one."

"This time, let's consider the battle with the Chaozhou Gang as your war to establish your authority!" Rong Jinran said with a light laugh!

"You're not old at all. Standing next to me, we look just like sisters," Ye Qingyan said with a grin.

"Don't try to fool this old woman." Rong Jinran rolled her eyes at Ye Qingyan.

"Let's go! Let's go take a look at your Peace Hotel," Rong Jinran said softly.

"Okay, let's go." Ye Qingyan nodded.

The group set off and arrived at the former site of the Peace Hotel.

Ye Qingyan walked ahead, introducing the place to Rong Jinran.

"This place is no stranger to the Rong family. Back then, the Rong family's headquarters were in Zhonghai."

"Compared to the Jin Mao Tower, the old man actually quite likes this place."

"The older generation of them are all nostalgic."

"Now that it's in your hands, I think he'll be very happy," Rong Jinran said softly.

"Will Grandpa come?" Ye Qingyan asked softly.

"No, he most likely won't get involved in the affairs of you younger generation."

"Of course, if you call him Grandpa, he might come," Rong Jinran said with a light laugh.

"Then I have to call him Grandpa. Whether a man is willing or not, if we make such a big fuss and then turn it into a half-hearted affair, wouldn't we become a laughing stock?"

"I can't afford to lose face like that, and neither can we."

"There has to be a respectable elder to keep things in order, right?" Ye Qingyan said with a smile!

Rong Jinran couldn't help but chuckle, "You're quite the clever girl."

"You even dare to scheme against the old man." Rong Jinran smiled.

"But it was worth calling him 'Grandpa'," Rong Jinran chuckled.

These young people don't understand the old man's skill.

Ultimately, those people in the Chaozhou gang were just a little bit lacking.

When the Rong family rose to power and even became involved in high-level power struggles, those people were just starting out, nothing more than commoners.

Although in this world, heroes are not judged by seniority.

But it's undeniable that only by standing there and seeing that scenery can one gain that perspective.

"So, we have to call out!" Ye Qingyan said with a light laugh!

Rong Jinran smiled and didn't say anything more.

I was just looking around at the decor.

She trusted the aesthetic judgment of several women.

As for style, that's their business; let them do whatever they like!

After walking around for a while, Rong Jinran left.

After returning to the Rong family, he had only been sitting down for a short while.

Rong Xiuzhu is back.

"My niece-in-law's methods are quite impressive! I imagine what happened last night should have given those old guys in the Chaozhou gang a real headache."

"Thirty-seven core members died. They were all veterans and key members of the Chaozhou Gang, the kind who truly fought their way out of trouble."

"Although it's not as shocking as taking down those old guys, it's definitely heartbreaking. Those old guys also controlled their businesses through these people."

"In addition, Zhao Chenfeng, one of the leaders of the Chaozhou Gang, has arrived in Guangzhou."

"Several veterans have also returned from abroad."

"Qi Guanchao hasn't shown up yet, perhaps he's already arrived in Guangzhou," Rong Xiuzhu said with a smile.

"Zhao Chenfeng must die," Rong Jinran said sternly.

"Should we just kill him at this point?" Rong Xiuzhu frowned.

"This person's sins are too numerous to count, he deserves to die the most, yet he acts as if he has no connection to the cause of death."

"That's true, which of these people doesn't have a glamorous identity?" Rong Jinran sneered.

"Don't worry, you don't need to lift a finger."

"If he dares to come, he'll never get out," Rong Jinran sneered.

Rong Xiuzhu was puzzled, but he didn't press the matter.

He's just a worker.

He did whatever Rong Jinran told him to do.

"In the morning, I went to the new house and then to the Peace Hotel," Rong Jinran said calmly.

"How is it?" Rong Xiuzhu couldn't help but ask!

"good!"

"In the past, I looked down on Ye Qingyan, but now it seems that she is more outstanding than I imagined."

"With her, plus hope Yun and the women from the Hua family, I'm not worried about Mu Nancen anymore," Rong Jinran said softly.

The old man is too biased towards Mu Nancen.

The favoritism was so extreme that even she, as the daughter, was jealous. You can imagine what kind of favoritism it was.

Perhaps it's because they look too alike?

Perhaps the old man is really getting old?

Rong Jinran had no way of guessing.

She didn't have any ill feelings towards Mu Nancen, but of course, it was impossible not to be wary of a woman with such a strong ambition.

Si Yang! In the end, he can't avoid being caught in a dilemma.

Of course, what she fears may never happen.

But this family... it's better to keep things peaceful.

Why did she ask Ye Qingyan to call the old man?

I also wanted to remind the old man that he has more than just one granddaughter-in-law, Mu Nancen, and more than just one great-grandson.

In Zhonghai, two women are pregnant, and one is about to give birth.

She's not worried about the present; she's worried about the future.

After their generation grew old, that was the time of Mu Nancen.

Si Yang can now be restricted, or even suppressed.

But since ancient times, feelings have often turned cold when they are at their peak; people's hearts are fickle.

"Isn't this just worrying unnecessarily?" Rong Xiuzhu couldn't help but say!

"I hope so."

"Of course, it's best to stay peaceful and harmonious. If anything unexpected happens in the future, it's just a matter of life and death," Mu Nancen said with a smile.

"When it comes to the depth of your calculations, no one can match you."

"It's up to you to decide," Rong Xiuzhu said with a smile.

"What is Li Zehui doing?" Mu Nancen asked in turn!

"Yangcheng is probably waiting for this internal gathering of the Chaozhou gang."

"We've had such smooth sailing all these years, and we've never suffered such a big loss. I reckon after this, they'll retaliate." Rong Xiuzhu chuckled.

"Let's get in touch with Li Zehui; he might be useful."

"Also, don't forget about Qi Guanchao."

"I asked the old man about this, and he only said three words: Qi Guanchao!"

"Clearly, this guy is important."

Rong Xiuzhu frowned upon hearing this. "Can't the old man participate himself?"

"There won't be that much trouble then," Rong Xiuzhu said irritably!

"The old man probably has more ideas."

"Besides, this kind of game is never decided in one fell swoop. The old man ended up the same way, perhaps even more so."

"However, the old man probably has some other ideas."

"Apart from the Rong family."

"I guess it's also a test for the granddaughters-in-law."

"I guess I can't count on Si Yang anymore."

"So I'll have to look after a few granddaughters-in-law." Rong Jinran smiled.

"That's true. If the family business is handed over to that brat and squandered, he won't even bat an eye."

"Letting him go would be a decisive move, but we have to be prepared to clean up his mess," Rong Xiuzhu said, pursing his lips.

"Looking at it this way, it's hard for us to lose!"

"At worst, we can just lock the door and let the brats out. If that doesn't work, we can let the old man out too," Rong Xiuzhu grinned.

Rong Jinran chuckled.

"You'd better only say that to my face."

"Sister, you'll betray me, won't you?" Rong Xiuzhu looked at Rong Jinran with a pitiful expression, a little carried away by her smugness.

"Then we'll see how you do things."

"If I don't do well, I'll get scolded too. Do you think you can escape?" Rong Jinran smiled.

"You'll at most get a scolding, but I reckon you'll break both your legs."

At this moment, inside the manor.

Ye Qingyan took the phone and handed it to Ye Mengwan.

"You'll have to handle this."

"this?"

"Shouldn't we ask him?" Ye Mengwan hesitated.

"We're just talking, what's it to him?"

"Besides, he's getting old. Regardless of our relationship, shouldn't he at least call me 'Grandpa'?" Ye Qingyan smiled.

"Okay!" Ye Mengwan nodded and then made the video call.

The bell rang for a while before the old man appeared, with a little baby beside him.

"Mengwan, is something the matter?" The old man's attitude wasn't particularly friendly, but his voice was gentle.

For an old man who has been rigid, harsh, and even somewhat cold-blooded all his life, this attitude is already rare.

Aside from Si Yang and the little guy, he never showed any affection to anyone else.

"Grandpa!" Ye Mengwan called softly.

"We're all here!"

Then, Ye Mengwan took her phone and spun it around.

"Grandpa, Grandpa..."

Each voice was gentler and more charming than the last.

The old man's eye twitched slightly; he didn't show much expression, but it seemed like he was smiling.

"Speak! What is it?" the old man said.

These girls would never chat with him about everyday matters.

"Grandpa, we're planning to set up a club on the site of the former Peace Hotel."

"That can be considered as having acquired a home and property."

"But we are just ordinary people with little influence, so we need an elder who can keep things in check."

"What do you think?" Ye Qingyan blinked.

"Sure, I'll go there then," the old man agreed readily.

"Thank you, Grandpa," the women said in unison.

The video call ended abruptly.

After hanging up, the old man, who was far away overseas, looked at the chubby little guy and seemed to come back to his senses. "Oh dear, great-grandfather was too hasty."

"So many girls, all of them calling me 'Grandpa'!"

"Alas!" The old man sighed deeply, lost in thought.
