Li Ziyu said calmly, "When the company was handed over to me, it was just a small to medium-sized listed company. In the few years since I took over, the profits have multiplied several times, and everyone's dividends have increased from several million to tens of millions. Grandpa, I feel that I have done enough for the family. I'm tired now and want to rest."
At this point, she had given up all hope for Li Weifeng, so her tone was devoid of any emotion, only indifference.
"There's nothing in this world that can't be discussed. Xiaoyu, state your conditions. What do you want for you to return to the company?"
"Grandpa, it's not impossible for me to return to the company, but I must cancel my engagement with Xiao Chen. If you cancel my engagement with Xiao Chen right now, I will immediately return to the company as general manager and continue to contribute to the family, making the Li family even stronger."
"This won't do, I can't accept this. The engagement was arranged when you were young, and you exchanged tokens of love. There's no way to cancel it," Li Weifeng said, shaking his head.
Li Ziyu knew that Li Weifeng would definitely not cancel her engagement with Xiao Chen, so she said, "It's fine if we don't cancel the engagement, but I'll be in charge of allocating the family's martial arts resources from now on. Is that alright?"
Li Weifeng stood up abruptly, staring intently at Li Ziyu.
Allocating resources to martial artists means controlling their very lifeline; from now on, won't Li Ziyu be in charge of this family?
After all, if anyone disagrees, she can simply have those martial artists step in and resolve the issue; it's no different from handing over the family's power.
Li Weifeng let out a long sigh before speaking, "Xiaoyu, I never imagined I'd underestimated you all this time. I thought you just wanted to break off the engagement, but I never expected your true purpose was to seize power!!!"
Li Ziyu was speechless. She hadn't expected Li Weifeng to overthink so much from just one sentence she uttered.
They actually thought she had always wanted to seize power.
However, she does want to seize power right now: "Grandpa, you can think that way. You're old and should enjoy your retirement soon."
"Hmph, you think you can force me to resign like this? Xiaoyu, you underestimate your grandfather. Believe me or not, I can make the Li family's stock skyrocket tomorrow."
Li Ziyu didn't speak, but her expression clearly showed that she didn't believe it.
Li Weifeng laughed and said, "If your engagement with Xiao Chen is fulfilled ahead of schedule, then I can go to the Ghost Doctor to ask for some connections. Do you think if our Li family suddenly announces a deep cooperation with a certain family in Jingzhou tomorrow, the company's crisis will be easily resolved?"
"Grandpa, you want me to marry Xiao Chen today?" Li Ziyu's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.
"Why not?"
"The wedding can be held later, but you and Xiao Chen can finalize your marriage status sooner rather than later," Li Weifeng said with a smile.
"Go back and prepare well. I'll talk to Xiao Chen. Tonight is your time to make love."
Li Weifeng's face was ruthless. As long as the Li family could find a super strong partner, all the current difficulties would be easily resolved. And with Li Ziyu and Xiao Chen's identities confirmed in advance, he could also ask Xiao Chen for help.
Although Xiao Chen certainly doesn't have as much influence as Wang Yannian, he is Wang Yannian's only disciple.
Li Weifeng suddenly realized that his idea was really great; it was a win-win situation.
"Grandpa, give up on that idea. I will not hand it over to Xiao Chen."
"That's not up to you, butler..."
Li Weifeng called out, but the butler's voice did not come.
He looked towards the side door with some confusion. There, a tall, handsome young man was slowly walking in.
Su Lin walked up to Li Ziyu, put his arm around her waist and gently patted her, and then Li Ziyu was pulled into Su Lin's arms.
Su Lin looked at Li Weifeng and said, "Your butler won't be coming in. He probably won't wake up for several hours."
"Who are you? Li Wenyuan... Where's Li Wenyuan? Isn't he in charge of security in the compound? We spend so much money supporting him, how come no one noticed a stranger entering the compound? I'll have him fired right away!" Li Weifeng shouted angrily.
Su Lin snapped his fingers and said, "Old man, you can't be unaware that many of your martial artists are Ziyu's men, can you? Unfortunately, Li Wenyuan, who's on duty today, is one of them, so I just swaggered in."
"Who...who are you? What is your purpose in coming to my Li family?"
Su Lin glanced at Li Ziyu and chuckled softly, "I am Ziyu's man. How can you treat my woman like this? What do you think my purpose is in coming here?"
"You...you all..."
Is what he said true?
A faint blush spread across Li Ziyu's face, and she nodded shyly under Li Weifeng's gaze.
"You… boy, no matter who you are, if you leave the Li family now, I can let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, if you offend the Li family and the Ghost Doctor, even if you are a scion of a prominent family in the capital, you will surely die."
"Definitely dead? Do you know that I just casually leaked a trace of my aura, and Xiao Chen immediately abandoned everyone and ran away? If you don't believe me, you can try and see if you can call Xiao Chen here. To be honest, he doesn't even dare to face me directly now." Su Lin said arrogantly, only now realizing that he had a bit of the villainous air about him.
I'm usually too mild-mannered, but I didn't expect to finally find my footing today.
"Impossible... Absolutely impossible. Xiao Chen is the successor of the Ghost Doctor. How could he possibly run away?" Li Weifeng said with disbelief.
Su Lin said calmly, "Nothing is impossible. That's just how it is. Old man, if I hadn't come today, that would have been fine. But if I had come, you and Ziyu's matter definitely needs to be clarified, otherwise my trip here would have been for nothing."
Li Weifeng sensed a murderous aura emanating from Su Lin, and he exclaimed in horror, "You want to kill me?"
"If you die, the conflict within the Li family will be resolved. Sacrificing you to save the entire family, isn't that a good thing?" Su Lin chuckled.
"But...I am Xiaoyu's biological grandfather."
Su Lin looked at Li Ziyu: "Ziyu, what do you say now, kill or spare?"
Li Ziyu looked at Li Weifeng for a long time before finally saying in despair, "Su Lin, I can't bring myself to harm my grandfather. He's still my grandfather."
Su Lin nodded: "I understand. I have a method of acupuncture here that can make him stupid for the next half month, or paralyzed in the middle, and then he will recover to normal after half a month. What do you think, Ziyu?"
This time, Li Ziyu did not refuse. She nodded and said, "This method is good. Half a month is enough time for me to take over the entire Li family."
"Hehe. Okay~!!"
"No...no...Ziyu, I'm your grandfather...you can't do this to me."
"I am Li Weifeng... the head of the Li family, how could you treat me like this?"
Su Lin casually flicked his wrist, sending out several silver needles, and Li Weifeng immediately quieted down.
Su Lin sighed, "Ziyu, you're still too soft-hearted."
Li Ziyu nodded: "That's right, I still softened my heart, but this ending is already very good, isn't it?"
"good!".

Seeing Li Weifeng staring at her with wide eyes, Li Ziyu felt a mix of emotions.
"Su Lin, will my grandfather really get better in half a month?"
Su Lin nodded: "That's for sure. The decision is in your hands. I can make him better whenever you want him to be better. However, someone needs to take good care of him during this time. After all, he's getting old, and lying in bed for half a month can easily lead to osteoporosis."
Li Ziyu nodded. Now that Li Weifeng could no longer pose a threat to her, her hostility towards him had also diminished. As a granddaughter, she would still do what she was supposed to do.
"Ziyu, it's up to you now. I believe that even without your grandfather, no one in the entire Li family and Yingge can rival you."
"By the way, where's your dad? I haven't seen him. Will his involvement affect you?"
Li Ziyu chuckled self-deprecatingly and said, "My dad is having a great time in Guangzhou right now. Even if you begged him to come and take care of the family affairs, he wouldn't come, so there's no need to worry about him."
"Guangzhou? Why would he travel that far for no reason?"
"Because he had to do things in Donghai. He was over forty and was not doing his job properly. His grandfather was annoyed by him every day, so he told him to get out, and then he really did leave."
"Such a thing is true? Your Li family really has all sorts of people."
Li Ziyu smiled and said, "My dad is the one who really sees things clearly. He knows that under Grandpa's management, being too capable is no good, as it will make him feared; being incapable is also no good, as it will make him disliked. That's why he ran away on his own."
Su Lin nodded: "Playboy isn't stupid. Anyone who has been in contact with your grandfather for a long time should be able to see his personality."
"Yes, he values power too much."
Su Lin asked calmly, "What are your plans next?"
Li Ziyu smiled, but her beautiful face was covered with a layer of frost. "Of course, it's about completely taking control of the family. Whether it's the martial artists, the relatives, or the company, we must keep them firmly in our hands. Su Lin, thank you for buying me half a month."
Su Lin laughed heartily; "Why thank me? We're business partners."
Li Ziyu blinked: "Just now, someone said I was his woman."
Su Lin looked at Li Ziyu's fair swan neck and flawless face and smiled, "Ziyu, if you're willing, of course I won't refuse. After all, who would refuse a beautiful and domineering female CEO?"
"So you don't want those girlfriends at home anymore?" Li Ziyu raised an eyebrow.
"How could that be? Of course we'll take them all."
Li Ziyu rolled her eyes at Su Lin and then said, "Su Lin, I might get busy. Why don't you go to the lounge at home and have some fun? I'll treat you to dinner after I've finished dealing with the family matters."
Su Lin shook his head: "Forget it, you have enough to do. Just focus on your own things. Are you going to the Qin family's auction on Monday?"
Li Ziyu nodded: "I will go."
"Okay, I'll head out now."
After saying that, Su Lin disappeared into the inner courtyard.
Li Ziyu looked at Su Lin's back and felt a surge of longing. She also wanted to be able to scale walls and walk unconventional paths.
Unfortunately, she was just an ordinary person, and Zhuque said she didn't even have any cultivation techniques.
As for martial arts, forget about it. After mastering martial arts, you'll become a supermodel. Although she's not vain, she's very satisfied with her appearance and there's no need for her to change anything.
Across from the Tesco supermarket, in an ordinary tea restaurant, Zhong Shuhui was drinking milk tea while observing the general manager's office of the supermarket across the street.
At this moment, Zhao Yanyan was processing documents, but for some reason, she felt that someone was watching her.
This feeling is strange, like having a sharp edge on your back.
This was a feeling she had never experienced before.
Since practicing the cultivation technique given to her by Su Lin, Zhao Yanyan has found that not only has her eyesight improved, but her sense of perception has also increased significantly. In particular, she can keenly sense the gazes of others, and if they are malicious, her senses are even stronger.
She was alone in the office at that moment, and she had looked around several times but saw nothing.
