"I want to hear my dad tell me if that rumor is true. Xiao Rubing stared at her father's eyes tightly, hoping to find the answer.

"Haven't you always wanted to get your brother back since you were a child, and now he's finally back!" Xiao Tengfei said with a smile as he looked at an osmanthus tree in the courtyard outside the window.

"That rumor turned out to be true?" Xiao Rubing was shocked and speechless, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Indeed, at the time of her birth, her brother had not disappeared. However, when she began to remember and became sensible, her brother was gone. She had no impression of her brother's appearance at all, only remembering that her parents sighed and were depressed all day long, and in the end, her mother died when she was just ten years old. And Dad also became extremely depressed because of this time, although he stopped looking for it on the surface, and the whole family stopped mentioning it intentionally or unintentionally, but she knew that in Dad's heart, her brother's shadow never really disappeared.

Since she was a child, she was particularly envious of those classmates in the school who had older brothers, and until she grew up, she also tried to find her brother through various means, but unfortunately to nothing.

Originally, she had already been disheartened, and like everyone else, she thought that her brother was long gone. But now, someone suddenly told her that the young man she had been with for several days, and the young man with whom she had become good friends was her long-lost brother!

Especially when she heard her father admit it himself, she realized that this was not a rumor, it was a true thing! Logically, she should be happy, but when all this was so abruptly laid out in front of her, she was at a loss and did not know how to face it.

Xiao Tengfei saw his daughter's shock and helplessness, and said with a smile: "Why, you have always wanted to find your brother before, but now that your father has finally found him back, you can't believe it?"

"Ahh Xiao Rubing deserved to be a shrewd and capable woman, and quickly calmed down from the brief shock, and thought of a key question, "How did Dad find him, and how can I be sure that he is my brother?"

"Speaking of this matter, it's really hard to say, it's not something that can be said in a while, and I'll talk to you slowly when I have time in the future. Xiao Tengfei said perfunctorily, "Anyway, I have now confirmed that he is your own brother, and it is not wrong." ”

After a pause, he looked at Xiao Rubing and said earnestly: "Although my health has not been very good in the past few years, and I rarely care about the company's affairs, it doesn't mean that I don't know anything. In order to compete for the inheritance of the company, the two sons of the second child fought openly and secretly, making the company into a miasma. And you are caught in the middle of the two ends, but for the development of the company, you have done a lot of practical things under pressure, which I know, you have worked hard in the past few years. ”

When Xiao Rubing heard his father say this, his eyes immediately turned red, and he felt that the hardships and grievances of the past few years had suddenly poured out.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, she is the daughter of the high-ranking chairman and the vice president of the group, giving people the impression of being a shrewd and capable strong woman. But only in front of her father, she completely removed all pretenses, she was just a girl in her early twenties, a little daughter who needed her father's love.

Xiao Rubing choked up and said, "Dad, don't say it, your daughter should do these things." ”

Xiao Tengfei patted his daughter's shoulder lovingly to comfort her, and said, "Daughter, you also know our current situation. Since your brother disappeared in his early years, his life and death are unknown, and you are a daughter, almost everyone in the company and even the family believes that Tenglong's two sons should eventually inherit our Xiao family's great family business. Tenglong is also happy to see his two sons show their strengths and compete for superiority, no matter who wins in the end, it will be his son. However, have they asked me what I think? Have they asked me if I would like to pass on the business to his two sons!" Xiao Tengfei said this, and he already had an irrepressible anger.

Xiao Rubing hurriedly brought her father a cup of tea and comforted: "Dad, don't be angry, don't be angry about this little thing." ”

"A small matter, hehe, this is a big matter related to the future of my Xiao family!" Xiao Tengfei took a sip of tea, stood by the window, looked into the distance and continued quietly, "He must have thought that after I lost my son, I could only be at their mercy, right? I could only watch them fight for the inheritance of the company without a way, right? Who let me have no son? Hmph, but they never imagined that I would get my son back!" The Xiao family's property that I have worked so hard to build, I will only pass it on to my own biological sons, and they don't have to think about it anymore!"

Xiao Rubing was surprised, it seems that his father has a deep purpose in returning from his search for his son this time. But think about it, this Xiao Group is an industry created and developed by his father, and of course he hopes to pass it on to his own son. It's just that why does the father's tone seem to be quite resentful of the second uncle?

Xiao Rubing didn't have time to think about it, and heard his father say again: "This is also the purpose for me to come here, and the only person I can really trust is you, my biological daughter." After a while, I will arrange Zhanhong to enter the company's management, and then I will rely on you to help him get familiar with the company's situation as soon as possible and master the company's core departments. ”

Xiao Rubing nodded and said, "My daughter understands." He suddenly remembered something and asked, "After a few days of contact, it seems that he still doesn't know the truth of the matter?"

Xiao Tengfei nodded and said, "Although I can already be sure that he is Zhanhong, he doesn't know it, and I am afraid that he will not believe it if I recognize him rashly." Therefore, I formed a New Year's friendship with him in Shencheng and tricked him into coming to Hong Kong Island for vacation. For this matter, you still need to hide it for me first, and I will find a chance to have a showdown with him when I go back. These days, I will let Zhenbang send people to secretly protect your safety, I am afraid that some people will jump over the wall after knowing the truth. ”

Xiao Rubing's eyes widened, and for the first time, she found that her father's behavior was really elusive, but her admiration for her father over the years made her firmly believe that her father's actions must have his reasons, "Well, my daughter knows how to do it." ”

"Alright, you go back first. No one else knows about my return to Hong Kong Island except Zhenbang, so don't leak it out. I will be staying here during this time, if there is anything, you can come here to me. ”

"Okay, that daughter will go first. Xiao Rubing walked to the door, turned to look at his father and said, "Dad, take care of yourself." ”

"yes, got it. Xiao Tengfei smiled and waved his hand, and watched Xiao Rubing walk out.

When Xiao Rubing left the villa, an old man with a slightly arched back flashed out of nowhere, it was Sun Zhenbang, the chief housekeeper of the Xiao family. He walked into the study and asked respectfully, "Master, why don't you tell the truth to the eldest lady?"

Xiao Tengfei sighed and said: "This matter is not true after all, if it is seriously investigated by someone with a heart, it is inevitable that some suspicious points will be found." Only if even Rubing hides it and makes her believe it, it will not be easy for others to see the flaws!"

……

Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier, one of the oldest ferry terminals on Hong Kong Island, provides direct access to the Central Ferry Pier and Wan Chai Ferry Pier on the north shore of Hong Kong Island. The neighborhood is full of attractions, next to the Tsim Sha Tsui Clock Tower, and not far from the Avenue of Stars and the Hong Kong Island Cultural Centre, so you can see a large number of tourists from outside the city.

On the edge of such a lively marina sits a humble café. At this time, Xiao Zhanwei was sitting in an inconspicuous corner drinking coffee, but his eyes were looking around from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone. It wasn't until he finished his cup of coffee that a man in a peaked cap walked in briskly and sat down on the chair across from him.

The man reached out and lifted the brim of his hat upward, revealing his whole face, which was Xiao Tenglong's henchman: Ah Cheng.

Ah Cheng owed and said apologetically: "When I came out, there was a little delay, which made the eldest young master wait for a long time." ”

Xiao Zhanwei said with a smile: "Brother Ah Cheng doesn't need to see me like this, I just came out to relax and have a cup of coffee, don't worry." He greeted the waiter and ordered a cup of coffee for Ah Cheng.

Ah Cheng looked around, made sure that no one else noticed him, leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "I don't know what the eldest young master is looking for me for?"

"Oh, actually, it's nothing. Xiao Zhanwei said lightly, "I'm just curious to know how my dad plans to deal with Xiao Zhanhong who suddenly appeared." ”

"This ......" Ah Cheng couldn't help but hesitate.

"What's the matter, even I, the son, have to hide it? Could it be that if I knew it, I would still obstruct the old man's plan?" Xiao Zhanwei's face couldn't help but sink.

"I naturally believe in the eldest young master, but the old master has specially explained ......"

Seeing Ah Cheng's hesitation, Xiao Zhanwei immediately changed his face and said with a smile, "Hehe, I'm actually just curious, if it's inconvenient for you to say it, just don't say hello." I can't embarrass you!"

After a struggle in his heart, Ah Cheng made up his mind for a long time and said: "Where is this young master, in the final analysis, my Ah Cheng is just a dog raised by the master, and the master trusts me, so he regards me as a confidant, and he is willing to say some things to me." If someone else asks about it today, I won't say it if I die. But since it was the eldest young master who asked him, what could I hide? I believe that the old master would not object to letting the eldest young master know about this. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Zhanwei heard that there was a play, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is the old man going to deal with him?"
