Chapter 1: The Mysterious Legacy - Change
My name is Li Xiang, and I am an illegitimate child, and my mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me, and my family members simply threw me into an orphanage to prevent me from seizing their property in the future.
Live in a thriving city, Haitian City. Living a grassroots life, year after year, day after day, I didn't make much money, but fortunately I didn't starve to death on the streets, but all this was broken.
Li Xiang, my dear child, my father knows that I have treated you badly all these years, watching you work hard for life, I can't bear to be my father, I think that Yaran has been gone for more than 20 years, as if I was still intimate with her yesterday, okay...... I don't have much time left, I didn't call you before, because I was afraid that your stepmother and those little mothers would embarrass you, now this is just the right time, come and get your share that should belong to you, to make up for my debt to you...... I know it's too late for me to say anything to you, but I'm about to go with your mother, Yaran, and you're going to give me this last ride? I'm looking forward to seeing you at the last moment of my life!
Signed, I owe it to your father all along!
After reading this letter, I can't forget it for a long time, all these years, I cried alone, laughed alone, ate alone, got up and worked alone, and took the bus alone, but I never thought of going to my biological father, I only know that he is a selfish villain, I hate him!
Still...... I never knew that every bit of my life had been known to him, and there were a few photos attached to the letter, which I took when I first learned to walk in the orphanage, another one was my high school graduation photo, and one was taken when I was rushing to catch the bus when I was at work...... Well, I won't forgive you, I won't accept your gifts, your amends, I want you to always have a weak heart, always go to see my mother with remorse, but I will send you this last journey!
I dressed up briefly, changed into a cheap suit and went out to take a taxi. To be honest, it was also the first time I went home to see their home, not mine, to be exact.
When I confirmed the address to the driver's brother according to the address attached to the letter, the eyes that looked at me obviously changed.
According to the instructions on the letter, the driver's eldest brother took me across the Haitian Bridge in Haitian City. Sail to the other end of Haitian City, the paradise of the rich, Haitian Island!
Here by the island and the sea, several private mansions and villas have been established, attracting countless celebrities and rich people to compete for it, just to be able to occupy a place on Haitian Island, in order to show off their capital!
Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is a place where every inch of land is golden, and the surrounding living facilities are complete, and you can meet a big star or super-rich from time to time, which is specially built for the upper class.
The driver's eldest brother seemed to be unable to bear the silence, so he simply broke the silence, coughed twice and asked me what the relationship was with Mr. Li.
My heart moved, saying that I was entrusted by someone to visit it, and the driver's eldest brother sighed, and the laughter was quite weird. I knew he must know something, so I snorted and asked.
It turned out that my irresponsible father, that is, Li Tianqing and Mr. Li, was an invisible super-rich man in Haitian City, who started with real estate, and when it was brilliant, two-thirds of the commercial land in Haitian City was developed by his family.
Moreover, Mr. Li is still a well-known stallion in the city, and he has almost had a leg with all the first-line actresses in the city back then, and even Tang Yaran, who was known as the jade girl of Haitian City, fell under Mr. Li, which can be described as a remarkable achievement.
There are four sons and three daughters, all of whom say that they will be fined for giving birth to a child, but this rich man's wife has changed one by one, so what if he has more children?
However, the children are not very angry, that is, they cause trouble in all kinds of ways, and they have lost a lot of family property. But that's it, there are still 3,000 nails in the broken ship, and it is still not comparable to other ordinary rich people.
Especially the eldest son Li Tian, although his name is one word less than his old man, but he has the true biography of the old man, he is addicted to wine, specializing in making small stars, and once had a glorious legend of using a street shop to soak horses!
The second brother is better than the eldest brother......
The driver's eldest brother talked and talked, and the more he talked, the more he talked, the taxi stopped in a majestic private manor, the manor is in a good location to look at the mountains and the sea, standing at the gate of the manor, you can see the coastal scenery of Haitian City and the landmark building of Haitian City, Haitian Stadium.
At this time, the gate of the manor was already full of luxury cars, countless people in black suits bent down to greet the people who came to mourn, and the wreath and soul flags were put out, I planned to let the driver's brother get closer, but looking at the posture at the door, the driver's brother immediately broke out, I can't imagine that the first man in Haitian City died like this?
After the driver's brother let me get out of the car, he turned around and drove away.
When the people around me saw that I was coming by taxi, they obviously looked at me a little strangely, but they didn't say much because of their face. I was a newcomer, and it was my first time here, and I didn't care about acquaintances, so I didn't plan to say hello to the people around me, so I walked straight in.
"Eh, tell me, it's all this time, why is there such a person coming in?"
"Shhh, Old Man Li hasn't completely lost his breath yet, maybe he came to find cooperation!"
"Huh...... Let's talk about cooperating, let's change the packaging first, you look at his poor and sour appearance! In my opinion, eighty percent of the people from the insurance company are here! At this time, it's just right. ”
Li Xiang didn't want to talk to these people who were rich and ill, after all, he was here to send him off, and from now on, he and everyone here would have nothing to do with each other!
Although the black-clothed personnel on both sides of the door were a little secretly confused about where Li was coming from, they still had to bend down to him out of etiquette.
"Who are you, and what are you doing?"
The person who spoke was the housekeeper of the Li family, and the people who came were either rich or noble, and when they saw Li Xiang like this, they dared to come to the Li manor, although they didn't wait or admire his courage, but out of professional and on-site influence, he had to kick him out.
The people on the side originally looked down on Li Xiang, and when they saw that the housekeeper had spoken like this, they all wished that such a person would get out of here quickly.
"I'm here to meet the old man and accompany him on his last journey. ”
Li wants to be poor, but he doesn't want to be short of stage fright, he said righteously.
Oh, hehe, this sentence can't help but cause everyone to laugh, this old man Li is about to leave, but not everyone has this qualification.
The housekeeper couldn't help but twitch after hearing this, thinking to himself, is this kid deliberately trying to find fault, or is he here to find fault with our Li family.
"Come on, blast him out for me!"
"Steward Liu is angry!"
"What are you doing?"
Steward Liu still said disdainfully, although the person who came was well-dressed and classy, but this did not mean anything, you know, as the housekeeper of the Li family, I have never seen any high-ranking officials.
"I am a will lawyer arranged by Mr. Li, and this is my business card. With that, the man hurriedly handed over his lawyer's business card.
Steward Liu took the man's business card in hand, but he didn't look at it carefully.
"Since you are making a will, don't stay in our master's room at the moment, what are you going to do when you run out. ”
"Eh, this is serious, of course it's for work. As he spoke, the man gestured to me in the distance, then beckoned to me to come.
"You're Li Xiang!"
I let out an "um" and didn't want to explain too much.
"I am the lawyer that Mr. Li arranged for you, including the previous letters, I also arranged for someone to send them to you. ”
"It's this letter. I knew what the lawyer meant, so I reached out and pulled out the letter.
"Eh, the little master is serious, how can I not believe you, you know, over the years, your every move, but I have arranged for someone to do it, hehe, of course, including the beautiful woman who sent you a letter and asked you to open it in person to read it to confirm the receipt, that is, my sister......"
I interrupted his narration with one hand. "Well, I take your word for it......".
Thinking back to the violent woman in the morning, eh, the psychological shadow area is huge, how can he be embarrassed to introduce me "Okay, I believe your words......"
"Lawyer Zhang, aren't you going to explain something to us people? Everyone here just now can hear it clearly, little master?"
Steward Liu showed an extremely unfriendly look, as if he wanted to see through me in an instant.
"Steward Liu, you are asking a little too much, the old man's orders, there is no need for idle people to ask. The man saw that his core target was already standing beside him, so he spoke a lot harder.
This sentence turned Steward Liu's face into the color of pig liver, and he worked hard to squeeze out a word for a long time.
"Please!"
"I said please, but my body was very reluctant~"
"Oh, my good sister, you're finally here!"
After such a blow, Steward Liu simply put down the shelf, and also learned to bow down from the people on both sides, said "please" to me, and then stretched out his left hand and gestured inward.
"Giggle~ This person, if you don't step on him, he won't know what his condition is. With that, the woman pushed me the back and told me to go in.
Inside, the decoration inside can be described as jaw-dropping. Then I was introduced to a luxurious bedroom, and the person lying on the luxurious bedroom was my biological father, Li Tianqing!
"Damn! the old man is out of breath!"
"What ?!!"
This sentence can be regarded as frying the people gathered in the hall, and the old man is so out of breath?
"When?"
"Shortly after that, his life signal had stopped......"
"I'll make up, then don't hurry up!"
"Yes, yes, young master, I'll arrange it. Steward Liu on the side hurriedly arranged for people to go in.
"you M, did I call you? I asked the lawyers to read the will quickly, everyone is divided, and everyone is ready to get together and disperse!"
The people on the side were sweating, and the old man's bones were not cold, so he shouted that he wanted to divide the family property, eh, this Li family, it is the end.
"It's just ~ hurry up and divide it. "The people who are talking about it are those young masters and young ladies, and they are dressed more fancy than the other, as if this is a social meeting, and they are not here to mourn at all.
The old man seemed to have expected what happened later, and he had previously arranged how to deal with Steward Liu's own afterlife.
Originally...... I thought we would talk about something, even if it was just a glance, but now I'm thinking too much.
Subsequently, several lawyers came one after another, including lawyer Zhang, and a lawyer stood in front of each child, looking expectant and nervous, just like a teacher sending a paper, looking forward to their scores.
All the contents of the will are handed over in front of everyone, and the lawyer does not have to read it on the spot, but the party can read it in court. Each lawyer is from a different firm, with a dedicated person, who is only responsible for one will and one heir, so as to prevent the lawyer and the heir from colluding and dumping property. I have to say that the old man is still very concerned about this matter.
When Lawyer Zhang handed a testamentary letter to Li Xiang, he also handed him an antique box, indicating that it was all his property.
This attracted the attention of the people around me, and they were curious, what was it, and I wiped it, and turned their attention in another direction.
"This damn old man, I'm the eldest son, why is it just such a thing! According to common sense, shouldn't the eldest son eat more and take more?!"
The rest of the people couldn't help but sigh when they heard this.
